in the corridor.

The TV series was stopped and the movie was stopped. This was a moment that was related to the life and death of the company. Naturally, President Zhou refused to let go of any hope. He couldn't watch the company go bankrupt like this. This was his decades of hard work. So, after President Zhou called Director Sun, he frantically made several other phone calls to several other leaders he was familiar with or had dealings with.

"Hey, Director Liu." President Zhou said hurriedly.

"Xiao Zhou, what's the matter?" came the voice of a middle-aged man on the other end.

President Zhou didn't have time to be polite, so he got straight to the point. "Director Liu, our company's two film and television projects are stuck. You also know that it took us many years to complete them. It is almost all of our funds. If it is really stopped, the consequences will be disastrous. You... can you help us think of a way?" After a pause, he said, "As long as the project can be restored to approval, anything will work." The Power of Time and Wealth 1718

The hint is already very obvious.

President Zhou feels that since the relationship is not going to work, then just throw money at it, and there will always be a way. He has always been like this, and he is familiar with it. In fact, to put it bluntly, he is still unwilling to admit the fact that he was beaten by a young man two times younger than him. If there were other ways, President Zhou would be even less likely to apologize to Dong Xuebin and that Yu Meixia. In his position and at his age, face is sometimes more important than anything else. Thinking of Dong Xuebin's arrogance, President Zhou doesn't want to bow to him. He would rather spend more money to solve the problem. This can be regarded as a waste of money and disaster relief, at least it is not lost to him.

However, President Zhou's plan went bankrupt again.

The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone heard this. Without even thinking about it, he said directly, "I just found out about the stop. There is nothing I can do."

President Zhou said anxiously, "Can you tell me which leader ordered us to stop?"

"It's pointless if you know, and it's not convenient for me to tell you." The middle-aged man said.

"Director Liu, please help us once. As long as the company gets through this difficulty, I promise that in the future..." President Zhou wants to say something else.

The middle-aged man interrupted, "Xiao Zhou, just take care of yourself."

After saying that, the call was disconnected. President Zhou's face changed slightly and he was silent for a long time.

then. Reluctantly, he called the next leader, but the other leader didn't know if he had received the news in advance. He didn't even answer his call and called another one. Not only did the other leader not answer the call this time, but he hung up directly and sounded the in-call tone. This attitude was already obvious. The other party didn't even want to talk to him, and there was no room for discussion. He directly drew a clear line.

These are all very powerful leaders that President Zhou knows!

President Zhou didn't expect that the other party's attitude was so unified, which made his heart freeze!

Who did the man named Dong contact? Which level of leadership stopped their project? There is no room for negotiation or explanation?

It's really bad this time!

How could he exert himself when he couldn't even speak?

That end. Senior executives from General Manager Wu and other companies also came over eagerly.

"President Zhou."

"How's it going?"

"What's the matter with the suspension..." The Power of Time and Wealth 1718

The top management all own shares in the company, which is also related to their livelihood and financial resources. They cannot care less. If the company goes bankrupt, no one will be able to survive!

President Zhou Look at them. But said nothing.

Everyone looked at each other and understood with pale faces. Wasn't this done? What can those leaders who have a good relationship with President Zhou do?

"How could this happen!"

"Why was everything so good stopped?"

"If these two projects are shelved indefinitely, let alone never be released, even if they are delayed for three and a half months, the company will not be able to persist. The funding chain will be broken long ago!"

"Did that young man just do it?"

"It must be him, who else could it be besides him?"

"But this is too fast, isn't it? It's only been ten minutes since he called us, and he stopped the project for us? The review procedures above can't be so fast!"

"Who knows? That person looks a little evil."

The senior executives were talking a lot, and they were all worried about their future.

General Manager Wu didn't care about the injury on his mouth and spoke in a hurry, "President Zhou, what should we do now?"

Apart from President Zhou, he is the person with the most shares in the company, and he is also the most anxious person besides President Zhou.

President Zhou still didn't speak. He closed his eyes and remained silent for a long time, seeming to be thinking and calming down.

One second...

Ten seconds...

For a time, the atmosphere in the corridor became more and more depressing.

Suddenly, Monitoring Room's door opened, and Deputy Director Chang and a policeman came out. The policeman continued to investigate the case and asked witnesses. Deputy Director Chang went to the bathroom. After a while, he washed his hands and walked out of the bathroom, and glanced at President Zhou and others over there.

President Zhou greeted him, "Director Chang."

"Huh?" Deputy Director Chang looked at him indifferently.

President Zhou paused, and his expression changed. He changed from the arrogant attitude just now to a calm one in the blink of an eye. He couldn't be described as unhappy, "What you just suggested is right. This matter is indeed not a big deal. I'd better listen to you and let's keep it private."

President Zhou actually meant to back down.  The Power of Time and Wealth 1718

Yes, face is more important than anything else, but sometimes it is worth more than nothing.

Hearing this, Deputy Director Chang sneered in his heart and said, "What the hell have you done?" He knew that Dong Xuebin was not an ordinary person, so when he came here, he helped each other and wanted to talk about the matter. In that case, it is considered hello, I am good, everyone, no need to bother anyone, but what about you? You think I'm trying to harm you, I keep saying no mercy, and you're so arrogant, and you still messed with me?

Thinking of reconciliation now?

What have you been doing!

Deputy Director Chang obviously had no intention of intervening, and said in a matter-of-fact manner, "Reconciliation is okay, but you two parties must negotiate on your own."

President Zhou hesitated and said, "You are a policeman. I think it is better for the police comrades to come forward."

Deputy Director Chang was too lazy to pay attention to him, "I can't come forward. I tried to mediate for you from the beginning, but you didn't agree. We have dealt with you many times. I was doing it for your benefit from the beginning, and you should be able to see it now, but you don't appreciate it, so I won't There's no way." After President Zhou and they didn't give him face, Deputy Director Chang also let it go before and clearly told them not to come to him if there was a problem. Of course Deputy Director Chang was not prepared to take it back. Now you are thinking of me? It's too late!

President Zhou and several people in the company looked a little embarrassed. They had never thought about Dong Xuebin's background at the beginning, and they didn't know that he had such great power in radio and television. That's why General Manager Wu's intention to molest a woman didn't make sense at all. I just wanted to give Dong Xuebin some color. I couldn't lose the prestige of the company's top management, so I didn't give Deputy Director Chang and Police Station face to the police. But who would have expected that things would take a turn for the worse, with such a big turn that no one could predict. It was too late for them to regret it.

"Director Chang, please help." Another company executive also saw the situation. President Zhou lowered their heads, indicating that things were really at the end of their rope. They naturally understood that whether the company can survive now depends on the attitude of the young man named Dong in the room.

Deputy Director Chang waved his hand, "I said you can discuss and mediate on your own. We at Police Station can only provide you with a place for mediation."

General Manager Wu was still angry about the fact that he was beaten by Dong Xuebin, "But what about the fact that he beat someone?"

Deputy Director Chang said, "If you can't keep it private, we Police Station will come forward, but in my opinion there are problems with both of you in this matter."

General Manager Wu said angrily, "But they still framed me without evidence, then..."

No evidence?

Did you mention any evidence?

Deputy Director Chang was so annoyed that he was too lazy to say anything.

"Lao Wu!" President Zhou shouted, "Shut your mouth!"

General Manager Wu's face darkened, he gritted his teeth, but remained silent.

It was General Manager Wu who caused the incident, and also brought such a person with unknown background to their company. It's strange that President Zhou can treat him well. Evidence? Now it is no longer a matter of evidence or not. The person named Dong has already said it before. He does not need evidence. Yes, the facts have also proved his skill. He has great energy. President Zhou company worked hard for more than a month to pass the TV series. Audit, but they canceled the audit within ten minutes with just one phone call. Now they have made it clear that they want to deal with their company. There is no point in bringing up evidence now. Moreover, everyone knows very well that this time it was indeed their company that disgusted the other party first.

President Zhou had long since lost his arrogance, and even the attitude in his tone was extremely gentle. He looked at Deputy Director Chang and said, "Our attitude was not good before, and I just came here and didn't know much about the situation, so it was a bit abrupt. Please forgive me for any offence. You will have to speak to us later. Regardless of whether it is successful or not, I will never say a word if you have anything to do in the future." He promised a blank check.

Deputy Director Chang doesn't care about this. Can I help you? It's nonsense. The owner of the house can even command the city committee. If I speak for you, wouldn't that bring trouble to others? Do you still think I don't have enough things to do? In fact, if it was the beginning of the incident, when the young man asked President Zhou them to apologize, it would have been fine for the Deputy Director Chang assistant to say a few words to mediate it, but now it is no longer possible because the matter has been resolved. The company's top executives have pushed it to an irreconcilable point. Of course Deputy Director Chang will not cause "chaos" at this time. Even in his opinion, whether this matter can be mediated is a question. The young man's temper is not ordinary! (To be continued.
