Chapter 245: The Yun Family Surrenders!【12-5】
Chen Suyi snorted, "As long as you're willing, there's nothing that can't be done. Over the years, I've seen many artists, clearly talented, yet due to various reasons, they can only struggle at the bottom, remaining as extras. I, Chen Suyi, may not be the most compassionate person, but I won't stand idly by. Therefore, I plan to build our company into one specializing in serving those with potential!"
Liu Ruyan nodded slightly, "At first, we had some doubts about Suyi's plan, but after hearing her intentions, I thought we could give it a try. With the public's increasing appreciation for aesthetics, those little fresh meat who become popular through plastic surgery and makeup are not the mainstream. Instead, it's those with acting chops who are more in line with most people's tastes."
Xu Hao pondered for a moment, then said, "Since you both say so, let's give it a try. We're not short on money; as long as we can manage the company well and produce good movies and TV dramas, then there's no problem."
"Hmph!" Chen Suyi was still so haughty, snorting again.
However, Xu Hao suddenly said, "That time in Huadu, when I brought out the makeup samples and said I would name the cosmetics after you, I've changed my mind. Let's set the entertainment division's name as Suyi Entertainment."
"You...!"
Chen Suyi exclaimed angrily, "You are infringing on me..."
"Stop right there!"
Xu Hao immediately said, "Everyone is watching; I did not infringe on you."
"You're shameless!" Chen Suyi, left with no comeback against Xu Hao's interruption, could only shout angrily.
Liu Ruyan intervened, "Stop causing trouble, get back to work. Where do you find the time to fight all day!"
The reason why Xu Hao no longer considered using Chen Suyi's name for the cosmetics was that the cosmetics venture was managed by Qin Yao. If he put Chen Suyi's name on it, though Qin Yao wouldn't say anything, she would definitely feel uncomfortable inside.
...
These days, Jing'an City was in turmoil as various major forces were either subdued by Xu Hao or wiped out.
As one of the major forces in Jing'an City, the Yun Family was filled with panic and anxiety.
The powerful rise of Xu Hao filled them with endless dread. As a dominant family with extensive influence in the city, most members of the Yun Family were reluctant to submit to Xu Hao.
But now, Yun Feiyang, the most outstanding of the younger generation of the Yun Family, was advising the family elders, "Uncles, aunts, grandfathers, grandmothers, I, Yun Feiyang, truly feel that we should submit to Xu Hao. After all, judging by his current actions, his goal is practically obvious—consolidating all the forces in Jing'an City under his control. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone through such trouble to create all these problems."
An elder said, "Feiyang, it's not that we can't see the situation clearly. It's really because we think that Xu Hao is still young. If we side with him now, while his power is not yet fully established, and he falls one day, our Yun Family would be destroyed too."
Yun Feiyang suddenly smirked, "Everyone, compared to the Head of the Liu Family, Liu Tianxiong, how do you fare?"
The people exchanged looks.
Finally, an elder said, "He's beyond us. He has been the most shocking figure in Jing'an City over the past few decades, aside from Xu Hao. Ever since he was young, he's been extremely strong-willed, and he seems to have very solid backing."
Yun Feiyang nodded slightly and said, "Since even a big shot like Liu Tianxiong stands firmly by Xu Hao's side, what reasons do we have not to take sides? Do you all think that your judgment is better than Liu Tianxiong's?"
"Well..."
The people exchanged looks again.
Yun Feiyang's statement put them all in a corner; they acknowledged they couldn't match a figure like Liu Tianxiong and therefore couldn't possibly believe their judgment was more accurate than his. Yet, the idea of directly giving up control over the Yun Family was incredibly hard for them to accept.
Yun Feiyang continued, "Why be so stubborn? Liu Tianxiong followed Xu Hao, but what did he lose?"
The crowd shook their heads.
"Exactly! He followed Xu Hao and didn't lose anything. Instead, his businesses are flourishing. With Xu Hao's support, many people don't dare to touch him. This shows that following Xu Hao only brings benefits without any harm!"
After repeatedly persuading them, the Yun Family's old guard finally agreed to submit to Xu Hao!
Upon receiving the news, Xu Hao immediately met with Yun Feiyang and others, expressing his warm welcome to the Yun Family's addition and appointed Yun Feiyang as the Head of the Yun Family. Despite some opposition within the Yun Family, it was firmly suppressed.
Meanwhile, Xu Hao also received news that the Zhou Family had moved en masse to Huadu.
Standing by his side, Liu Ruyan asked, "The Zhou Family moved quietly last night with the full force of their clan. Our people went to check this morning and found the place completely deserted."
