Chapter 853 - The price for being stupid

Translator: eunimon_ Editor: Caron_

Worldwide conference room:

Chu Hong Guang, Cai Yong Sheng, the top management and shareholders were all present.

The looks on their faces were different and their eyes seemed to fall on Chu Hong Guang.

Chairman Chu wanted to give some authority and a lucrative job to his own family member. That was understandable, but it wasn’t altogether inexcusable either, but who could’ve expected that this Cai Yong Sheng would be so stupid to chase Ye Bai away?

Outsiders had no idea how Ye Bai was recruited by Worldwide at such a young age without any power or backing, but the people present at HQ now knew the reason very clearly in their hearts.

The incident involving Han Xian Yu molesting a child had a very negative impact – even the company was dragged into it and Worldwide was helpless. It was Ye Bai who offered his services and executed a perfect plan to solve the crisis, which gave him the chance to enter Worldwide.

This Cai Yong Sheng, an idiot who relied on his relations with Chu Hong Guang, actually wanted to compete with him?

If he was respectful, it would’ve been fine to recruit a capable general. But the annoying part was that Cai Yong Sheng was dumb and made everything such a terrible mess. Right now, not only?was Ye Bai gone, but he even took two hottest artists and?a stylist from Dazzling.

Even when Worldwide “shut him out,” Ye Bai still made a breakthrough just by relying on a magazine cover.

Any industry insiders who were slightly more knowledgeable would know that although it seemed like a simple cover shoot, it marketed the fashion industry, entertainment industry, and tourism industry, crossing?multiple boundaries at once – it could even be considered a classic example?of a counterattack?to?traditional media!

According to the latest news, the country’s famous tourism sector already?reached an agreement to collaborate and signed a contract with Luo Chen and Gong Xu to be their tourism ambassadors. Also, the well-known clothing brand in China also invited them to be their spokespeople.

These were top-level positions that would be difficult for a big company like Worldwide to obtain!

Even though everyone knew where the problem lay, everybody still gave Chu Hong Guang some face and nobody pointed it out bluntly.

Cai Yong Sheng, who was hard-pressed on every side, gritted his teeth and said, “This Ye Bai... not only did he take the company’s artists away, but he even blackened the reputation of the artists under me by using all sorts of underhand methods. He should be punished harshly! Chairman Chu, this...”

“SHUT UP!” Chu Hong Guang was suppressing a bellyful of anger, but when he heard his nephew speaking this way and not learning from his mistakes, he became even more agitated.

Cai Yong Sheng didn’t have any choice but to suppress his anger himself.

Chu Hong Guang scanned the people in the conference room and said in a low voice, “What suggestions do you guys have?”

Everyone looked at one another. One of the middle-aged shareholders wearing a blue-gray suit spoke up: “Haha, chairman Chu, as the shareholders, we obviously want to work in a way where we can earn the most profits. Since Ye Bai is capable, why don’t we just hire him back again!”

Cai Yong Sheng’s face froze. “No way!”

Where am I going to put my face if I hire Ye Bai back right now? Would I still have a place at Dazzling?

At this moment, a certain higher-up said, “I’m afraid this isn’t appropriate. After all, we have to take into account the image of our company. No matter what, Ye Bai took two artists and left the company – if we hired him back after what happened, wouldn’t we be encouraging that sort of behavior?”

Cai Yong Sheng chimed in immediately, “Exactly, exactly! That’s right. Not only should we not hire him back, but we need to teach him a lesson. We have to kill the chicken to warn the monkey [1]...”

The moment Cai Yong Sheng said that, Han Xian Yu and Fei Yang walked into the conference room.

Han Xian Yu’s public reputation was second to none in the industry. Ever since that incident, he was the walking signboard of Worldwide and was also one of the shareholders at Worldwide, so he was entitled to join the conference.
