You Guys Are Bullying Us
Cha Jinho looked at Liang Zixuan. As a company CEO, he had a much better attitude than Qiao Chun and spoke in fluent English. "Miss Liang, it's not easy to speak here. Can you give me twenty minutes?"1
Naturally, Liang Zixuan was also polite to the polite people. She replied in English, "There is a pavilion outside the theater, we can go there and talk."
Shi Jian, Xu Qigang, and Cai Yuhan saw this and quickly stood up when they saw that Liang Zixuan was really going to leave. Shi Jian said, "Zixuan, let us follow you."
Liang Zixuan always felt that she could handle negotiations like this on her own. No matter how many people were there, she would not be afraid even if there were thousands of soldiers by Cha Jinho's side.
But ... She was pregnant, and it was different. If the conversation did not go smoothly, then Cha Jinho and Qiao Chun would come into conflict with her. That's not good. So, she allowed Shi Jian, Xu Qigang and Cai Yuhan to follow her.
They had only walked a few steps when Principal Tao saw them. Without hesitation, he stood up and chased them.
"Zixuan, what's wrong?" Principal Tao looked at Cha Jinho and Qiao Chun as he asked Liang Zixuan.
Liang Zixuan whispered, "They should be from Korea Entertainment Company. They want to talk to me."
Principal Tao was clearly aware of their female group seizing the market, including international. Upon hearing that they were from Korea Entertainment Company, Principal Tao immediately became alert. He patted Liang Zixuan's shoulder and said, "I'll go with you."
Liang Zixuan nodded. "All right, then I'll bother the principal."
Principal Tao shook his head and whispered in her ear. "I can't possibly let them bully you, can I? Rest assured, if there's anything troublesome to say later, I'll help you speak up."
Liang Zixuan chuckled and nodded at Principal Tao.
Ever since Liang Zixuan had entered the academy, Principal Tao had paid full attention to her in all aspects. This kind of favoritism surpassed a principal's care towards students and was more in line with the way elders cherished and protected their juniors.
Liang Zixuan's heart warmed when she saw how much she was protected by Principal Tao.
Maybe Principal Tao was afraid that the incident with Jiang Ning might happen again, so he became even more nervous.
Liang Zixuan introduced Cha Jinho to Principal Tao. Cha Jinho politely shook his hand before treating Principal Tao like an air, continued to face Liang Zixuan and said, "Miss Liang, first of all, I congratulate you on the success of the female group idol but I think your strong presence in the market is really against the rules. Our company has been working for the idol groups for nearly a decade, and we have the most advanced and perfect star-making system. I hope you understand that."
Liang Zixuan listened patiently before interrupting him, "Mr. Cha, what are you trying to say?"
Cha Jinho's face stiffened for a moment, but he remained calm and said, "I hope you can compete fairly with us in the market. Han Group Media is the largest entertainment company in your country, and you have used more than half of Han Group's resources to support the female group and the male group. By doing so, you guys are bullying us!"
So much bullshit!
Liang Zixuan really wanted to laugh. Could it be that Koreans were so unreasonable?
"Mr. Cha, there are so many big and small companies in the entertainment circles and their strengths are all different. Just because our company is big, has a lot of money and has more markets than you, you can't say we bullied you! Have you ever heard of the saying about mantou in Chinese? In the past, we didn't care about big buns because we didn't want to eat them. We let you eat it until you were full, and we didn't say anything. Now we want to eat the mantou too and you suddenly objected?"
Liang Zixuan paused and sneered. "You have no right to say anything because after all, this mantou is ours!"
Cha Jinho's face immediately darkened and he said stiffly, "Miss Liang, our idol groups are better than yours and our star system is also better than yours! You're the ones who're stealing our market by immoral means!"
"Immoral?" Liang Zixuan raised her eyebrow and said in a domineering tone, "If you think what we are doing is immoral, you can expose it to the media. We won't stop you. And don't put us on a moral scale. Morality isn't what you decide on your own. Do you think our audience is really blind? You guys are better than us? Heh! You really dared to say anything! With so much confidence in you, why don't you go on stage and dance naked!"
"Puff!" Shi Jian, Xu Qigang and Cai Yuhan couldn't help but laugh. Even Principal Tao started to laugh.
Liang Zixuan's last sentence was spoken in Chinese. Cha Jinho didn't understand and turned to look at Qiao Chun. Qiao Chun's face was dark as she translated Liang Zixuan's words into Korean for him.
Cha Jinho was so angry that his eyebrows jumped.
"Miss Liang, I'm just having a conversation with you. How can you scold me?"
Liang Zixuan curled her lips. "Did I scold you? Is there a dirty word in my words?"
Cha Jinho: "..."
He really didn't think Liang Zixuan had a sharp tongue. Even he, an experienced person, can't compare with her!
He thought Liang Zixuan was a traditional Chinese woman who had never seen much of the world. He only needed to use the word "morality" to embarrass her even more.
Cha Jinho was so angry that his face turned red. "Miss Liang, our group idols are better than yours. That's an undeniable fact! Judging by the whole of Southeast Asia alone and the market share we seized, we are the best!"
Liang Zixuan tilted her head as if she suddenly remembered something. "You reminded me. We have already dominated the domestic market, and the next step is to conquer the entire Southeast Asian market. Mr. Cha, although Korean dramas are nice, but our idol shows are not bad either. Just open your eyes wide and watch closely on how we snatch the market from you bit by bit!"
