Chapter 258 The Expensive Film!
"Although you don't make many public appearances, I've once seen a profile of you in a business magazine."
The chubby owner touched the back of his head admiringly and said, "You started your own business from scratch at a young age, in contrast, us middle-aged folks are practically living our lives in a dog's belly."
"You can't say that," Song Yun patted the owner's shoulder and said, "At least you have integrity. How about this, from now on your restaurant will exclusively provide Chinese dinner for Mountains and Waters Corporation. As long as the taste and ingredients are fine, I'll make sure the price satisfies you."
"Really, Mr. Song!"
The market value of Mountains and Waters Corporation was extremely formidable, and being the food supplier for such a multinational company, the profits for the year were self-evident!
He felt extremely grateful for the choices he made today and deeply understood the meaning of 'learning changes one's life'!
If it weren't for that photo he had chanced upon in a magazine a few weeks ago, today might have been the day he went bankrupt!
After finishing the meal at the restaurant, Song Yun returned to the Hua Capital villa with Wen Shu and Yuan Siyi.
Wen Shu had recently become obsessed with the living room's motion-sensing games, spending her days at home either playing games or clutching her phone scrolling through videos, giving off the air of an internet-addicted homebody.
Taking advantage of Wen Shu being engrossed in her games, and Qing Qing still in the hospital, Song Yun gave Yuan Siyi a look, silently leading her upstairs.
Two hours later, Yuan Siyi lay exhaustedly asleep, and Song Yun, hearing someone return downstairs, dressed and walked down the stairs.
"How was the checkup?"
Seeing Ye Qingqing, Song Yun went up to wrap his arms around her slightly bulging waist and asked with a smile.
With her little nose wiggling, Ye Qingqing harbored a playful expression in her eyes that grew more intense.
Song Yun felt uneasy under that gaze; although Yuan Siyi was sent by his own wife, but...
"The baby is fine, the doctor said I need to exercise routinely, so it's less painful when giving birth."
Ye Qingqing gently caressed her belly, her eyes filled with the glow of motherly love.
Ever since she became pregnant, she felt as though her perspectives on some matters had changed.
"From now on, I'll accompany you for more walks in the evening."
Song Yun kissed Ye Qingqing's forehead, knowing that a woman bearing your child is the deepest form of love. He always repaid those who were good to him doubly, so whatever requests Ye Qingqing had, he would fulfill them.
...
For several days in a row, the incident involving Mo Li spread like a storm across various social media platforms.
Beyond boycotting, people also dug into the background of the mall's owner.
When they found out that this mall was owned by the richest man in Magic Capital, some who were steadfast in their stance began to waver.
To the public, businessmen were often seen as cunning, each one alarmingly shrewd.
It was a choice between losing billions in assets and uttering a few lightweight patriotic slogans, and they were really afraid that Song Yun would compromise at the critical moment!
These days Joshua Child was exceedingly annoyed. The business volume of Mo Li in Hua Country had plummeted dramatically, not only in commerce but also in the entertainment industry, where the rhythm was being set.
The fan effect of these celebrities in Hua Country is tremendous; wherever their beloved idol endorses a product, they would support it even if it meant surviving on instant noodles. But if their idol disdained a product, that product would certainly receive relentless negative reviews!
Thus, Mo Li's stores have been all but deserted these past few days, and those who did enter would find any excuse to complain, just shy of smashing up the place!
"Damn, damn, damn!"
Joshua Child clenched his fists and slammed them desperately onto the table; he hadn't even begun to wear down Song Yun, yet he feared he would be worn down first!
The family has already issued a final ultimatum—if the problem isn't solved within a week, they'll have someone else take over.
And that person just happens to be Joshua Child's archenemy!
Now, there are only two paths before him, one is to betray the alliance with the luxury manufacturers, to kowtow to Song Yun and release an apology statement!
The second path is to go all out and play hardball—forcing Song Yun to eventually agree to all of their demands!
Sitting in his chair, he closed his eyes and thought for a long time, finally clenched his teeth and steeled his heart, damn it, Hua Country has an old saying, 'The bold are rewarded and the timid starve'!
He didn't believe that Song Yun would dare to oppose so many luxury good makers!
Having cleared his mind, Joshua Child took out his phone and sent a text message to his secret lover.
But there was no reply for a long time.
Suspicion began to grow in his heart. Usually, this lover was always at his beck and call, could something have happened?
This man always demanded to have his needs met in the shortest possible time!
So he immediately called the lover. It didn't matter if her husband picked up; they were all friends, after all.
"Doo-doo-doo~"
The busy tone of the phone rang for quite a while before being answered.
"Is there something you needed?"
The woman deliberately lowered her voice.
Joshua Child cleared his throat gently and said, "Are you free right now?"
"I'm sorry, Joshua, I've been having some issues recently and can't enter the consulate, so…"
The woman said apologetically.
Hearing this, the fiery passion in Joshua Child's heart seemed to be extinguished by a bucket of cold water.
But fortunately, he had more than one lover. After consoling her, he contacted another woman.
Half an hour later, Joshua Child, invigorated, dressed himself and called his assistant to prepare for a press conference tomorrow and to invite Song Yun to a negotiation.
One after another, orders were issued; the gear named ML, silent for days, slowly began to turn.
When Song Yun was at home hugging Ye Qingqing, keeping her company watching a romance drama, he received a call from Old Yan, informing him of the storm Joshua Child had stirred up in Magic Capital. Song Yun, with utter disdain, told Old Yan to reply that he would definitely be on time tomorrow morning!
However, Song Yun was not going there to accept unfair treaties; he was there to slap some faces!
"Hubby, is it about the ML issue again?"
Ye Qingqing, comfortable in Song Yun's arms, shifted and asked.
"Yeah, these foreigners always think everything is so simple, always wanting advantages without any loss, but do they think my advantages are so easily exploited? Tomorrow, watch how I deal with them!"
Hearing this, Ye Qingqing looked up with a grin and said, "Hubby, kiss me, and I'll reward you with something~"
Song Yun could never refuse such a condition.
After fulfilling the task, Ye Qingqing took out her phone and shook it, her eyes brimming with triumph as she said, "Someone caught photos of Joshua Child having an affair in the underground parking lot and wanted to sell them but didn't know to whom. So, they were posted on a forum, and Mo Li bought the negatives for a high price~"
"I had wanted to release them when ML struck back, but since you are going to beat them tomorrow, as your wife, I must prepare your club~" Experience tales at M-V-L
