Chapter 1679 - 1680: Want to use background to wear them out!

Chapter 1679: Chapter 1680: Want to use background to wear them out!

In the beginning, they wanted to directly cooperate with AQ, since they had worked together once before, making collaboration easier.

However, AQ politely declined their offer.

They then approached several platforms of the same level as AQ, only to be politely rejected by all.

In the end, having no other options, they settled for second best by seeking cooperation with stakeholders with good relationships with the platforms, similar to their previous partnership with Lemon. This type of collaboration meant they had to share more of the profits.

After "Little Luck" became a big hit, Lemon Entertainment secretly orchestrated a scandal involving their actress Jian Yao and Rong Yan’s boyfriend, so they definitely wouldn’t partner with them again.

There were already few companies they could choose to cooperate with, yet such issues kept arising.

"What do we do now, should we look for another company to negotiate with?" Zhu Zhu asked dejectedly.

"..." Estelle remained silent, resting her chin on her hands, not saying a word.

She knew clearly who was sabotaging them from behind the scenes. Every time they successfully negotiated, the culprit would strike again. As long as the other side wouldn’t let them go, no matter how many companies they approached, the result would always be the same—no way!

Rong Yan stood up suddenly, her face as cold as ice, "I’ll handle this matter."

Estelle immediately stopped her, afraid she’d cause trouble, "How will you handle it? She’s backed by the Chu Family, don’t be impulsive."

"But she’s going too far!"

Once or twice was bearable, but this was the third or fourth time, now the fifth—what exactly was Chu Xi trying to do!

"I know she’s excessive, but there’s nothing we can do. The world is like this, survival of the fittest. With the Chu Family’s backing, even if she bullies us on purpose, we can’t do anything. It’s like those companies we approached for cooperation—they were overjoyed at first, eager to sign, but later they backed out. Don’t they want to make money? They want it more than we do! They’re just too afraid of Chu Xi’s retaliation to work with us."

Rong Yan’s chest was filled with anger, her beautiful face tense as she looked at Estelle, "Are you saying we can’t do anything about her?"

"There is. Mr. Li could step in."

Rong Yan immediately rejected the idea, "I don’t want to drag the Li Family into this."

Estelle shrugged, mercilessly declaring, "Then there’s nothing we can do, we just have to endure it."

"..."

"Since we want to start a business independently, without relying on Mr. Li, we just have to bear it. Unlike them, we don’t have a background. Others have Madame Chu as a godmother, we have nothing."

They had over a dozen junior staff and rented a commercial office space that was ridiculously expensive.

The rent alone felt like Zhou Bapi was whipping them from behind, urging them to keep pushing forward. If they didn’t move quickly to start new projects, the money they had wouldn’t sustain their company’s high running costs for long.

They needed money for rent, to pay their staff’s salaries, and, now that "Little Luck" had blown up, they also needed to give out bonuses... in no time, the money would be gone.

Chu Xi was likely betting on this, not overtly suppressing them but secretly prohibiting other companies from partnering with them, trying to wear them down!

I have to admit, these tactics are truly... despicable!

Despicable, ruthless, and helpless.

Rong Yan quickly calmed down, realizing that her impulsiveness wouldn’t help. She sat back down, took out her phone from her bag, called Fu Yi, and told him she had made up her mind, planning to collaborate on a project with him. She briefly mentioned the previously considered terms over the phone. Following that, she sent a message to Qin Jun.

After doing all this, she closed her eyes and waited for a response.
