Chapter 266
International Hotel, twelfth floor.
Su Wanâs news conference started at exactly nine. This time, she privately hosted the news conference so Wu Tong managed everything.
Yesterday, news of Su Wan wanting to shut out âApple Daily Magazineâ had spread on the internet yesterday. Even more, major magazines and media had also published this shocking news too. At this time, every famous journalist and reporter in China almost all came to the news conference. Of course, besides Apple Daily Newspaper.
A smile floated on Wu Tongâs face seeing the full house. Sister Wan was really Sister Wan for a reason! Everyone was shocked by her shutting out the Apple Daily Magazine high-profile. Who cared about questioning her and Ye Liu and Master Chenâs groundless accusations?
The flash bulbs shone every now and then as Su Wan appeared in everyoneâs vision wearing a scarlet long dress.
Today, Su Wan had dressed up fancily. Not only did she look really spirited clad in scarlet, it also revealed her Entertainment Queenâs aura to a full extent.
âGood afternoon everyone.â
Before anyone could say anything after she sat down, Su Wan exclaimed in a slow tone with a faint smile on her face as she faced countless cameras, âI hosted this news conference under my name today. Before anyone asks a question, I want to announce something. I, Su Wan, am terminating the agreement with Xinyu Entertainment unilaterally.â
What?
God!
Reporters that were originally trying to get some gossip from Su Wan and Apple Daily Magazine were now in an uproar.
Nani? Thankfully, none of us has a heart disease. Empress Su, youâre trying to scare the heck out of us, arenât you? Youâre giving us hot news one after the other!
âSu Wan!â
âSu Wan!â
The reporters under the stage were causing a commotion. They all raised their hands in a hurry wanting to ask questions in advance. Seeing that everyone was high in spirits, Wu Tong stood up and raised his hands to indicate everyone to lower their voices. âDonât rush, everyone. Youâll all get to ask questions. Sister Wu is really willing to cooperate with the media. I believe that everyone knows her personality. Of course, we wonât easily let people purposely pick faults or try to incite trouble.â
Wu Tong said this rightly but in reality, he was trying to hint at the reporters present. They want to ask questions? Sure, but donât be too presumptuous. Otherwise, youâll meet the same ending as Apple Daily Magazine.
Wu Tong smiled seeing the people quietening down. âOkay, you may ask questions now. Hm, this Xuri reporter, you may go first!â
Wu Tong chose the self-important Xuri Magazine. Their reporters were known for being difficult and troublesome.
The male reporter from Xuri was the same one that kept pestering Su Wan last night.
The male reporter held the mic and stood up seeing that he was called on. His sharp gaze was fixated on Su Wan.
Su Wan lifted her brows as the man provoked her. She shot him a charming smile. âHandsome guy, you can ask any question you want. â
Uh.
The male reporter froze for a moment, shook by Su Wanâs smile. He then snapped out of his trance and said, âSu, Su Wan, from what I know, you still have three more years of contract with Xinyu Entertainment. Now that you announced the termination of the contract unilaterally, you will need to compensate a huge sum of penalty fee, donât you? Have you found your next one? And is the other party going to pay the penalty fee for you?â
âThis is a great question.â
Su Wan blinked her eyes at the man and exclaimed, âI was just about to talk to you guys about this. Of course, donât misunderstand. I didnât pay this handsome guy to help me put on a show. Heâs the top reporter of Xuri, Li Weiyi. Itâs not like I have the ability to invite him over.â
The reporters down the stage couldnât help but laugh softly hearing Su Wanâs teasing words. As for Li Weiyi, his expression turned solemn and he looked at her a bit surprisingly.
Speaking of, Li Weiyi was considered a genius within the entertainment circle. He was the one that captured a picture of Su Wan and Lu Jun breaking up and fighting. This brazen and meticulous reporter had climbed several floors and took the picture through the window of a ward. One could see how devoted he was.
Li Weiyi was known as a brave man within the entertainment circle. Plus, he wasnât afraid of offending people. He would publish any news that he got his hands on. He successfully took over the throne of the top reporter of Xuri with publishing exclusive and shocking news.
There was more to this man than meets the eyes.
The people under the stage laughed and they slowly relaxed. Su Wan then exclaimed calmly, âI terminated my contract with Xinyu Entertainment for personal reasons. As for the next company, I havenât found one yet. I would need you guys to help me look around and hype myself! I donât have a lot of requirements either. As long as any entertainment company appreciates me and is willing to give me a contract worth nine digits, then Iâm willing to do anything for them!â
Nine digits!
Everyone sucked in a cold breath. What does a nine digit contract for an artist represent?
This was an incredibly expensive price!
âSu Wan, are you saying that Xinyu Entertainment isnât paying you enough?â
Li Weiyi immediately followed Su Wanâs words and quickly asked the question.
âThe salary that Xinyu is giving me is in the contract. Itâs confidential so I canât reveal the specifics.â
Su Wan smiled and stopped him when she heard his question. âReporter Li, you can only ask one more question.â
Each person has a limit of three questions. This was the rule of her news conference.
Li Weiyi smiled and continued to ask, âThen hereâs my last question. You said that you were going to shut out Apple Daily Magazine yesterday. From what I know, the owner of Apple Daily Magazine was good friends with Mr. Lu Jun. Does you shutting out the magazine have anything to do with Mr. Lu?â
Lu Jun?
Li Weiyi had beat around the bush and finally brought the topic back on to Lu Jun.
Su Wan kept a smile even after hearing his question. âI think that everyone in the world needs to have a grateful heart. Iâve been with Mr. Lu for five years and he had helped me a lot. I am really gratified. Now that we broke up and I heard that he started a new relationship, I sincerely want to bless him. Plus, you said that Apple Daily Magazineâs owner is friends with Mr. Lu. Heâs not Mr. Lu himself. Therefore, everyone, letâs not implicate Mr. Lu Jun in this. He doesnât belong in the entertainment circle so please donât disturb him and his lover because of me. In short, I wonât make anymore comments about Apple Daily Magazine. Justice is in the will of people. Thank you.â
Li Weiyiâs gaze flickered hearing Su Wanâs words. In the end, he sat down, unaccepting to the words. Who doesnât know about the relationship with Apple Daily Magazine and Su Wan?
A while ago, Apple Daily Magazine had destroyed the bridge after crossing the river. Everyone knew that it had chased after Su Wan endlessly but they kept quiet.
âOkay, the next person can ask!â
This time, Wu Tong stood up again and casually pointed at a female reporter sitting in the front row. She stood up, clearly excited. âSu Wan, have you considered the possibility that after terminating your contract with Xinyu and then listing a salary worth nine digits, many companies that originally planned on signing you would be scared off?â
âSince I listed this price, then that means Iâm worth the price! As for whether or not someoneâs going to sign me, let us see!â
The entire news conference went on for an hour and half. The reportersâ questions revolved around Su Wan terminating contract with Xinyu as well as the extremely expensive salary price. Everyone seemed to have forgotten their initial motive. After the press conference was over, Wu Tong brought all the reporters to a five-star hotel and ate at their buffet. Before leaving, Su Wan even took a picture with the reporters to keep as a souvenir.
The last one to leave was Li Weiyi from Xuri.
âDo you want to take a picture with me?â
Su Wan couldnât help but lift her brows seeing his cold face.
âIâll take a picture with you alone.â
Li Weiyi picked up his camera and then snapped a picture with Su Wan.
âHey, Iâll be mad if the picture doesnât look good.â
Su Wan couldnât help but tease him seeing that Li Weiyi snapped the picture half-heartedly. Xuri Entertainment was known for its ugly pictures. There were many beautiful celebrity pictures that end up looking greasy and ugly like strangers on the streets when published in the newspaper.
âYouâre beautiful no matter what.â
Li Weiyi couldnât resist the urge to let Su Wan see the picture he snapped. Seeing that she looked really natural and beautiful in the picture, Su Wan nodded in satisfaction. âYouâre much better than the photographers.â
Li Weiyi shrugged his shoulders and laughed. âHe purposely snaps pictures of people at an ugly angle. Sister Wan, you naturally know about this.â
âOh, really?â
Su Wanâs gaze flickered when she heard Li Weiyi changing the way he addressed her. âDo you have something to tell me? Is that why you left last?â
âSister Wan, youâre smart.â
:Li Weiyi smiled and waved his camera. âThere are lots of good pictures in this camera but itâs nothing compared to your extremely expensive contract. After I leave, Iâll make sure to write up a good draft of todayâs events. If Sister Wan thinks that Iâve done a good job, then please take good care of me in the future. When you sign a contract with your new company, give me an exclusive interview, okay?â
âYouâre sure that Iâll be able to sign such an expensive contract?â
Su Wan retorted questioningly.
Li Weiyi smiled. âSister Wan, didnât you say youâre worth the price? Since you are, thereâs definitely going to be an intelligent person who will come to sign you. I believe in you!â
âOkay, leave your phone number with Wu Tong. Iâll contact you within a week!â
A weekâŠ
Li Weiyi immediately gave his personal number to Wu Tong after getting an affirmation from Su Wan. Then he left.
Wu Tong couldnât help but exclaim in Su Wanâs ears softly, âSister Wan, this Li Weiyi is known for being a thankless wretch. Be careful that he might end up going against you.â
âGoing against me?â
Su Wan laughed. If he wasnât afraid of losing, then sure~
