Wei Jiansheng has always been a big shot in the entertainnt industry, but this ti, he’s at his wits’ end. Hua Yiwu is too seriously damaged this ti. As things stand, it’s beyond repair.
Even with Wei Jiansheng’s status, he can’t persuade the brands to change their minds, because the negative impact Hua Yiwu has caused already jeopardizes the brands’ reputations. Brands aren’t doing charity and won’t foolishly bear the brunt with you. Dissolving the contracts to distance themselves is the best and only choice.
Hua Yiwu’s situation now is akin to a war. A seemingly strong army, once it starts to lose, collapses completely.
Cao Cao’s million-strong army t Zhang Fei at Changban Slope. Zhang Fei’s angry yell scared Xiàhóu Jié, a general beside Cao Cao, to death, causing panic to spread rapidly, triggering a chain reaction. The formidable army turned pale in terror, and Cao Cao himself was so scared he turned his horse around and fled. In no ti, Cao Cao’s army scattered in flight.
A large number of justice-seeking netizens criticized Hua Yiwu, conducting a moral trial against him. Rili, pressured by public opinion, took the lead to terminate contracts and was praised for it. Brands that hadn’t terminated their contracts followed suit out of fear of backlash, resembling the fleeing army of Cao Cao.
Even Cao Cao was scared off, and Wei Jiansheng knows he’s no match for Cao Cao.
Previously, Hua Yiwu endorsed over twenty brands, earning a lot of money for the Company. Now, all these brands are opting out, and might even file lawsuits demanding compensation from Hua Yiwu.
It can be said that this ti, both Hua Yiwu’s personal reputation and the Company’s interests have suffered imnse damage.
Overnight, Hua Yiwu transford from the Company’s most profitable top-tier artist into a liability.
Wei Jiansheng is left with no tears to cry.
He, Wei Jiansheng, one of the top three magnates in the entertainnt circle, and Cherry Entertainnt, such a huge company, could be brought down by a woman like this?
The thought alone is incredible to Wei Jiansheng.
The only comforting factor is that Hua Yiwu hasn’t broken the law—this imnse public outcry is purely on a moral level.
As long as it’s not illegal, there’s still hope for Hua Yiwu. Although the blow is severe this ti, after the storm passes, Hua Yiwu could still make a coback after lying low for a while.
Wei Jiansheng isn’t giving up on Hua Yiwu easily, considering Hua Yiwu is still the Company’s most lucrative artist. Despite this incident, Hua Yiwu’s core fan base remains, and there is still hope!
Wei Jiansheng hopes that Hua Yiwu would make a coback in the future to recover the lost money.
On this day, Mrs. Hua rushed to Cherry Entertainnt, requesting to see Wei Jiansheng.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Mrs. Hua appears to have lost considerable weight, evidently worrying about recent events.
"Mr. Wei, all of Yiwu’s endorsents have terminated contracts with him. I’m really worried. Mr. Wei, are you also going to terminate your contract with Yiwu? Mr. Wei, please don’t abandon him!" Mrs. Hua pleaded.
Wei Jiansheng said, "How is Xiaohua doing now?"
Mrs. Hua said, "This has hit him hard. He hasn’t eaten for a whole day and night. Right now, what I most want is to ask Mr. Wei to help my son!"
Wei Jiansheng said, "Your precious son asked for this. It’s already a blessing that he’s not declared criminal. This outco is all his own doing!"
Mrs. Hua said, "I know Yiwu did wrong this ti, but he is still the most profitable person for the Company, my dearest. I hope Mr. Wei can help him, considering his previous contributions."
Wei Jiansheng said, "Alright, I’ll go see him."
Wei Jiansheng followed Mrs. Hua to Hua Yiwu’s multi-million dollar mansion and saw Hua Yiwu, who hadn’t left his house or eaten for a day and night, looking utterly dejected.
Upon seeing Wei Jiansheng, Hua Yiwu broke down in tears: "It’s over. This ti, I’ve lost everything!"
Wei Jiansheng said, "Don’t say that, it’s not over yet!"
Hua Yiwu said, "All brands have terminated their contracts with . How is it not over? I have nothing left. Mr. Wei, you’ll terminate your contract with too, right? Because I’m worthless and dragging the Company down."
Wei Jiansheng said, "I won’t terminate the contract with you, rest assured about that."
Hua Yiwu was taken aback: "Mr. Wei, are you serious?"
Wei Jiansheng said, "Yes, if I were to terminate the contract with you, I wouldn’t have co to see you today."
Hua Yiwu cried: "Mr. Wei, teach , what should I do now?"
Wei Jiansheng said, "It’s the peak of the storm right now. During this ti, don’t appear in public places. Keep a low profile, or simply disappear for a while. Lay low until the storm blows over, and I will let you make a coback."
Hua Yiwu said, "How long will that take?"
Wei Jiansheng said, "Maybe half a year, maybe a year. Anyway, as ti passes, this matter will fade from discussion. Once the ti is ripe, you can make a coback."
Hua Yiwu, uncertain, said: "Can I really make a coback? Now everyone is scolding and mocking , saying I’m Hua Needle. If I make a coback, they’ll definitely criticize again."
Wei Jiansheng said, "It’s fine. By then, it won’t matter to the netizens anymore. Since you haven’t broken the law, there won’t be a problem!"
Only then did Hua Yiwu feel a bit of relief and cheer: "Mr. Wei, are you sure this is all true?"
Wei Jiansheng said, "Of course. From my experience in the entertainnt industry, that’s how it is. There have been stars who went to jail and made cobacks. What you did is just a gender issue, not a big deal. I heard that the Hang City police have already terminated their investigation into you. That doesn’t break the law, that’s the final result."
Hua Yiwu felt consoled upon hearing this and smiled: "That’s the only good news today!"
Wei Jiansheng said, "So, do as I say. Stay as quiet as a chicken during this period and don’t appear in public. Wait for the storm to pass."
Hua Yiwu nodded, "I understand, thank you, Mr. Wei."
Sure enough, following Wei Jiansheng’s advice, for the next half month, Hua Yiwu did not appear in public, hidden away.
He waits for the day when he can make a glorious coback.
Over ti, indeed, netizens quieted down, and online trends shifted quickly. No one ntioned the Hua Yiwu incident anymore.
It seems that the incident with Hua Yiwu has reached its conclusion. He was not criminally prosecuted but was seen as morally culpable, leading brands to terminate contracts. It seems to be the final outco.
Gradually, this matter is fading away.
However, what no one expected was that this period of silence was rely the calm before a bigger storm.
Half a month later, Lin Fan suddenly received a call from Loli.
Loli said, "You asked to look into Hua Yiwu’s matter. I’ve gathered enough evidence to prove Hua Yiwu indeed did those things to the little girl..."
Lin Fan’s face turned cold: "Good, during this ti, Hua Yiwu must have thought he was in the clear. I will ensure he faces trouble; he must pay the price for his actions."
