Chapter 284: Who’s Our CEO?

Wang Dan stood out as well, “As Weiwei’s manager, I know better than anyone else how you’ve treated her these past few years . ”

“If it weren’t for your intentional oppression, there would be no way she’d be given so little resources to support her . No other best actress winners have to go audition and fight for roles . ”

“Since you refuse to treat her equitably, then at least don’t stand in her way . It looks like neither of you is satisfied with each other, so let’s end the contract . ”

Fu Xiuyu replied, “Every company has a plan for their signed actors . For an actor to have highs and lows is very normal in the entertainment industry . If all the actors come out and complain, then who should be taken care of first?”

“Ending the contract? There is no way I would agree to that . ”

“Plus, her acting range is narrow and she’s reached a plateau . She’s no better than a complete newbie . ”

“If she leaves Star Entertainment, you really think her career will get better than what it is now?”

“So you still see value in me and want to use me . You don’t think you’ve depleted me enough?!” Bai Weiwei shouted, “Even if I don’t do as well after leaving, I refuse to be the ladder your sister steps on to crawl her way up! It’s now me one-sidedly asking for the termination of contract!”

Fu Xiuyu nodded, “We can terminate . The cost of breaking the original contract will be $800,000,000 . ”

“What?!” Bai Weiwei widened her eyes, “Isn’t it $10,000,000?”

Fu Xiuyu said, “That was your previous contract . Did you not read over your renewal?”

Fu Siying chimed in, “As one of the most prominent actresses, you don’t even have $80,000,000? How embarrassing!”

Bai Weiwei’s entire body shook when she heard this .

She hadn’t gotten an acting job for the past two years . The money she made before was sent to her parents .

Even if the contract breaking fee was $10,000,000, she would need to dump out all of her savings . For her to tell them she wanted to terminate was no easy feat .

$80,000,000? That would cost her her life!

She gulped, “Don’t you think you’re taking this too far?!”

Fu Xiuyu, “As you said, I’m a corporate capitalist . I’m not a not-for-profit . Capitalists will always seek for profit . The worst you could do as a capitalist is to have a soft heart . ”

Clap, clap, clap… The sound of clapping suddenly appeared, “Look at you, going all out for profit . CEO of Star Entertainment, you sure make me admire you . ”

Fu Xiuyu glanced over and froze instantly, “Director Gu, how rare of you to visit . What can I do for you?”

Gu Xinze said, “Of course I’m here to talk about terminating actress Bai’s contract . ”

Fu Xiuyu’s eyes glossed over, “Sky Entertainment is going to pay the $80M for her?”

Gu Xinze, “Why not?”

Bai Weiwei was shocked, “You are… Sky Entertainment’s CEO?”

Gu Xinze nodded, “Ms . Bai, would you like to sign with Sky Entertainment?”

Bai Weiwei answered, “As you know, my audition this time was lacking next to a new actress . To spend $80M on me, is that worth it?”

Gu Xinze shook his head, “The entertainment industry is like a tub filled with ink . How rare it is for you to remember where you came from and what your goals are . To remain a woman with so much integrity, you are worth way more than $80M . ”

“Plus, our CEO had said that leaking your audition tape should’ve offended you . Not only did you not get mad, but you also took our actress’s side . She admires you very much and would love for you to join our team . ”

“As for your skills: you’ve won the best actress title so your capability does not warrant any doubt . All actors may or may not encounter characters that suit them . Don’t deny yourself early . ”

Fu Xiuyu caught something, “You are not the one in control of Sky Entertainment? Who’s your CEO then?”

“You sure overestimate me . I’m merely a salaried worker working for my CEO . ” Gu Xinze said, “As for who our CEO is… I’m sorry, I have no response . ”

Fu Xiuyu was furious and said in a low voice, “Then, Director Gu, please prepare $80M!!”

“There’s no rush for that . ” Gu Xinze walked up to Bai Weiwei as he spoke…
