IP Plans

"That manager was originally clinging onto a higher-up from Ruiyi. The moment that higher-up entered, he escaped."2

Su Yayan furrowed her eyebrows and her expression darkened. "He escaped?"

Luo Weibing's ex-manager was a troublemaker. Not only did he bully the weak and fear the strong, but he was also petty.

Luo Weibing had been tortured by him many years ago. After he unexpectedly became popular, he started to bootlick him again.

Unfortunately, Luo Weibing had already seen what kind of person this person was. Although he did not replace him, he was not very close to him.

This person bore a grudge because of this. Furthermore, Luo Weibing refused to renew his contract, causing him to be scolded by the higher-ups in the company. He blamed everything on Luo Weibing and felt even more resentful.

He claimed that he was the one who discovered Luo Weibing and brought him into the entertainment industry. He assumed that Luo Weibing was indebted to him and believed that Luo Weibing was repaying kindness with ingratitude. Hence, he wanted revenge.

The rumors about Luo Weibing and Su Yayan, as well as Luo Weibing acting like a diva, and the scandals about her sexual harassment were mostly caused by him.

Coincidentally, the higher-ups of the company were also very dissatisfied with Luo Weibing's decision to not renew the contract and wanted to mess with him. They immediately agreed with the idea, which was why they colluded together and caused all those dirty things.

Even if Luo Weibing's ex-manager wasn't capable of being the mastermind, he was definitely the biggest accomplice. Su Yayan couldn't let him go just like that.

"He didn't manage to escape." Xia Junsheng obviously thought so too. "This person doesn't get along with Luo Weibing and has a few other artists under him. In addition, he has a close relationship with one of the higher-ups in the company and secretly helped him do many shameful things. After that higher-up was caught, the people there already had their eyes on him. He wanted to escape, but just as he ran out of the door, he was caught."

"Pfft…" Su Yayan couldn't help but burst out laughing." It's good that you caught him. Since he's related to the higher-ups, he probably won't be able to come out anytime soon. "

"Even if he comes out, there will be people looking for trouble with him. It's safer to stay inside."

Su Yayan understood what he meant and did not continue discussing this person. "What about the artists in their company? Does anyone want to leave?"

"Yes. Some want to leave, some want to stay."

"Investigate these people's backgrounds. If they're good, we can focus on nurturing them. Compared to the standards of our company's artists, there's no need to treat them differently. If they have evil intentions, terminate their contracts or freeze them. Be careful not to let them cause any trouble. If they want to leave peacefully, they can terminate their contracts. If they have evil intentions, there's no need to be polite with them."

When Xia Junsheng heard Su Yayan's words, he roughly understood her attitude towards Ruiyi. He nodded and said, "I understand. I'll send someone to take over as soon as possible. Also…"

"Anything else?"

"A few key IP plans for our company."

Su Yayan was stunned for a moment before she recalled that she had been inspired by the movie 'Phantom Banquet'. She had gotten someone to purchase a few potential IPs.

After preparing, they spent a few years investing heavily in creating these IPs, using them to create more popular pillars like Luo Weibing and Xue Caiwei.

These IPs that were acquired had a wide range of genres. There were original novels, television dramas, and even comics. The background of the stories included modern, ancient, future galactic, post-apocalyptic zombies, gods, and devils.

Su Yayan paused for a moment. "I remember that one of the proposals you gave me was an adaptation of a comic, while the other two were based on a novel."
