Zhang Yang had a smile on his lips, but his tone on the phone carried a hint of semi-genuine hesitation: "Sort of! I was also angry and couldn't hold back! Look at what we can do now?"
The tone and attitude of the first half were still fine, but when it ca to asking Brother Liu what to do, Zhang Yang showed a slight change in his speaking tone.
They're all old foxes, and the people Liu Xingyun deals with every day are all sharp-minded, well-trained in interpersonal negotiations, able to detect subtle changes at any mont.
"You, you, usually so clever, why do you get confused at key monts! What can I say about you!"
Liu Xingyun's recently beautiful mood suddenly worsened.
He also understood that Zhang Yang's call at this critical mont was pressing him to choose sides; this ti, it would be tough to brush it off easily.
"He spread rumors that I had an affair with my brother's wife. How can I tolerate this? If it were you, could you endure it?"
Zhang Yang saw Liu Xingyun still hesitating, so he fueled the fire.
"You could have communicated with in advance to handle it, just removing a few violating segnts, isn't it just a matter of words!
Why make it so ssy, now it's beyond containnt; if any news breaks on traditional dia, even I won't be able to escape the consequences."
Liu Xingyun softened his tone, still trying to persuade Zhang Yang.
"When he went live and bashed before, you said the sa thing, giving him a chance, and what happened?
Blocking him for three days didn't work, and he went even further.
I have hundreds of brothers under who dine with ! If I swallow this indignation, what do you expect to do?"
Zhang Yang saw that softness wouldn't work, and straightforwardly played it hard!
"You kid, hey…
You almost had fooled just now, speak plainly, what's the demand of a phone call now?"
Seeing that he couldn't keep up the act, Liu Xingyun decided to be straightforward and bring the issue to light.
"Between and that Ma Yafei, only one can remain! On our platform, it can be him or , not both!
Investigating his hiring of paid trolls to slander has cost nearly three hundred thousand, the company's reputational damage is imasurable, conservatively exceeding a million!
I have already hired a professional legal team to solidify evidence and prepare to sue the other party, by then the platform must provide absolute support!" Zhang Yang said with conviction.
On the other end, Liu Xingyun didn't speak for a full ten seconds after hearing Zhang Yang's demands, with his mind overwheld with disbelief, and he had nothing left to say.
It's like, this Ma Yafei usually appears quite clever, even competent, but why provoke the wrathful Zhang Yang?
Liu Xingyun also knew about the profits from additive sales, it's not for human consumption, difficult to quantify effects, a bit of a gray area as long as it doesn't beco a big scandal with too many complaints.
But now, Zhang Yang has got him by a vulnerable point, leaving Liu Xingyun awkward even in wanting to help, Zhang Yang's words have blocked all paths.
No, this isn't just catching a small flaw, it's gripping Liu Xingyun's Achilles heel!
A small flaw might an just starting anew, but an Achilles heel in soone else's clutches could cost a life.
"Ma Yafei was brought onto the platform by , dismissing him touches my ego, think carefully before answering, is there any leeway on this matter?
I'll make him double compensate for all your losses, can we give him one more chance?" Liu Xingyun appealed sincerely, even risking his own face.
"Brother Liu, if you speak like this, our brotherly bond is over!" Zhang Yang's tone on the phone hardened further.
"No no no! Not over, not for a Ma Yafei, really not worth it!"
Seeing Zhang Yang started to bring up brotherly emotions, Liu Xingyun knew Zhang Yang was resolute this ti.
Attempting peace is out of the question, saying more would really infuriate him.
As a platform operator, everyone in Liu Xingyun's mind had a value assessnt.
With a full score of one hundred, Ma Yafei might score around thirty, worth sothing, but discarding him wouldn't hurt, sowhat like a minor fixture, a mid-level perforr on the platform.
And Zhang Yang?
Others might not know Zhang Yang's potential, but as a partner, Liu Xingyun knows far more than others!
Zhang Yang, with his million-strong fishing enthusiast following, aside from his tackle company's business, also has an extraordinary 'Disciple' like Chen Xiu.
Together with Liu in the mcn influencer agency signed a bunch of fishing influencers on the platform, equal to or above Ma Yafei's level.
Considering what Liu currently knows, Zhang Yang is at least a top-level player with a score of 95, at the pinnacle of the platform's ecological pyramid.
That's without Zhang Yang's personal account extensively promoting sales.
If he goes all out, the platform's actual benefit might exceed a hundred points, at least 150.
