Chapter 142 - Step 3 (V) (1/2)

When Xiong Zhi arrived at IHZHI, Fang Dien and Xiao Mei were having dinner at their office. Since she unexpectedly visited them, they ordered extra food for Mr. Ji and Xiong Zhi.

After dinner, Xiong Zhi told her plan to expand in the entertainment industry.

Fang Dien was against it at first. IHZHI was still growing in the business industry. It would be bad if the baby IHZHI expand its weak arms to the entertainment industry.

There were many companies who were weary of them, if they expand more in the entertainment, their rivalry would increase more. And it would be too bad for IHZHI. They couldn't handle it at the moment.

Besides, Fang Dien thought that it was still too early to expand in the entertainment. IHZHI might not be able to handle two expansion at the same time. It would take a toll on the company.

Xiong Zhi expressed that she understands.

”Don't worry. I'm not asking to build an agency in a large scale. We are just going to support one artist. Then once we stabilized in the business industry, we can expand then to entertainment.”

”One artist? So you want to make an agency under IHZHI just for one artist?” Fang Dien was taken aback. This was ridiculous. Who would make an agency just for one person?

”If you dont like it, Xiao Mei could handle it. We would just take care of him for a moment. Train him. He would be the very first member of the agency.”

Fang Dien and Xiong Zhi argued first. But since Xiong Zhi was stubborn and she was the boss Fang Dien admitted defeat.

”Fine. Let Xiao Mei take care of it. But the budget we have is only limited. We are still expanding. Don't gather too much attention.” Fang Dien passed this problem to Xiao Mei. Xiao Mei was not against it as she believes in Xiong Zhi's decision.

”Contact this person once you have a studio. Train him well.” Xiong Zhi gave King Yan's personal number.

”Alright. I will prepare right away.” Xiao Mei said.

Xiong Zhi then left IHZHI. She just wanted to at least make an agency to support one person, her future money tree. That would be the start of her monopolizing the entertainment industry.

Sunday came.

Xiong Zhi was in the car when she received a message.

[I'm on my way.]

She smiled with this and expected the day would be fruitful.

Lin Ruo was sipping on his coffee while having a staring contest to the man in front of him.

The door opened a teenage girl appeared.

Lin Ruo waved his hand.

”She's here.”

Xiong Zhi went to their seat. A waiter approached them and gave her her usual drink as she sat. As expected of Lin Ruo, he was very efficient when it comes to hospitality.

Xiong Zhi took a sip and then looked at the unfamiliar man in the table.

”Nice to meet you, Mr. Wu Er. I'm Xiong Zhi. I bet Mr. Ruo has told you what is my business.”

Wu Er nodded. He was a bit taken aback that the person they would meet was a girl.

'Is she eighteen yet?'

But he quickly moved on and went directly to the business. He doesn't care who the other person is. As long she can help him.

”Nice to meet you too. I've heard about it from Mr. Ruo. I've read the doc.u.ments as well. If you could really help my brother to get out of prison I'll continue the investment as long as you want.” Wu Er said with desperation on his voice.

Wu Er came from the big Wu Family. They are not as legendary as the Xiong. But they have been in the business industry for a long time. They acc.u.mulated much wealth that each heir would be able to build their own business from the shared inheritance they've got from their grandfathers.

But as every wealthy family, they have internal struggles too. Especially in the case of Wu Er's generation.

There are three young masters in the Wu family. Wu Er's big brother, Wu Yu, was the strongest contender for the heir. Secondly, the bastard child of his father, Wu Ling, and lastly, him.

When Wu Er's big brother got framed. And the Wu family just stand by, Wu Er distanced himself from the Wu family.

Since the people who are monopolizing the Wu family was the mistress-bastard-son duo, Wu Er had no desire to stay with them or work for the company. The company itself was slowly deteriorating because of the abuse of money and improper management of the mistress-bastard-son duo. But all of it has nothing to do to Wu Er. He already sold his shares and he has his own company to run.

The only regret he has was his big brother in prison. He wasted so much money to bribe people to help his brother out. But no lawyer was capable enough or proofs that could help them win the trial. Wu Er also suspected that the mistress-bastard-son duo has strong connections to the prosecutors.

But he never loses hope. He got more desperate as time passed by. So even the help came from a teenager he would grab it. Any little help he could get was needed.

Xiong Zhi lightly smiled.

”Of course. I have a person to introduce to you.” The sound of the door opening made Xiong Zhi's smile deepened. It was Xiong Zhi's favorite coffee shop so she was very familiar of this place.

Xiong Zhi raised her hand.

A tall woman with a good figure came to them.
