Chapter 983: Persuasion!

Zhao Chongs spirits were lifted as he watched Xia Ning finish the gla.s.s of wine in a gutsy manner. He said loudly,Good, as expected of Chairman su, youre so forthright! He glanced at Jin Yan and said,Jin Yan, dont underestimate our President su. Shes a heroine.

Jin Yan chuckled.Just this one gla.s.s? she hasnt recovered from her injury yet.

It doesnt matter! Xia Ning smiled at Jin Yan and said,Im almost done.

Jin Yan wanted to say something, but Xia Ning had already s.h.i.+fted her gaze away. He frowned, as if something had changed. No, he was probably overthinking things.

As a guest, Lu Chuan took the initiative to propose a toast to Zhao Zhong after he finished drinking.

After one round, Zhao Chong also got to the main topic.

Chairman su, please forgive Apple TV for not being able to handle things properly before. Zhao Chong apologized first and then made a toast.

Xia Ning stopped him and said calmly,I understand your intentions, President Zhao. That incident is already in the past, so Ill just treat it as if it never happened.

President su is so broad-minded. Zhao Chong sighed,I knew that Chairman su wasnt such a petty person.

Lu Chuan lowered his head and ate his food, pretending not to understand their small talk.

President Zhao, why did you call me here today? were both straightforward people, and were already so familiar with each other. Theres nothing to hide. Xia Ning put down her chopsticks and looked at Zhao Chong.

Thats right, President Zhao, Jin Yan chimed in.Theres no need to toast. Since youve asked me to come, lets just talk about whats on our minds.

Zhao Chong nodded and put down his gla.s.s. He looked at Jin Yan and said,Jinyan, Im older than you. Weve known each other for so long. From the time you debuted until now, although I didnt push you to fame, Ive helped you a lot. Its not a loss for you to call me brother, right? brother, I want to tell you the truth today. If you terminate the contract with us, we cant continue with the reality show. So, Im here today to ask you to consider it again.

Xia Ning took a sip of tea and glanced at Jin Yan, who was sitting beside her, without saying a word.

Jin Yan lowered his head and remained silent for a while.Director Zhao, I really cant partic.i.p.ate in this show. You know that I still have to film a movie and prepare for my new alb.u.m in the second half of the year. I dont have that much time.

Its just a reality show. Why do you need so much time? its not like youre going there every day. Zhao Chong hurriedly said.

Jin Yan looked at Zhao Chong and sighed.Director Zhao, Ill pay you for the penalty. I really cant partic.i.p.ate in this show.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chong became anxious.Jin Yan, this is not a joke. Weve already announced to the public that youre going to partic.i.p.ate, but in the end, you didn t. How are we supposed to face your fans who like you? besides, this isnt a matter of money. The station has already made it clear that if you dont partic.i.p.ate, this program will be canceled. By then, I wont have the face to continue working at the station.

Jin Yan s.h.i.+fted his gaze and looked at the food on the table without saying a word.

The atmosphere in the private room was a little tense. Zhao Chong looked at Jin Yan and said unhappily,Do you really have to give up the good reputation youve built up for so long just for Liman? Do you want people to say that youre throwing a tantrum and that you have a bad temper?

Jin Yan lowered his head and still did not answer.

Seeing this, Zhao Chong turned to Xia Ning, who was silent beside him.Chairman su, please help to persuade Jin Yan!
