541 Eavesdropping on a ConversationThinking about this, Ningxia was truly impressed by Wang Zheng. She believed that no one could remain calm in the face of such great interests; after all, no one wo...Chapter 111: Still a Threat!
"What's this" Song Mingsheng looked at the golden card on the table, feeling puzzled. He didn't know why Wang Zheng had taken it out.
"A Platinum Director Card of Heavenly Palace International Club!" Chu Zhaonan recognized it immediately and couldn't hide his shock anymore.
Legend has it that the Heavenly Palace International Club was founded by ten directors, all influential figures with extensive connections. To open such a super luxurious high-end club in Beijing, where people from all walks of life gather, their capabilities and backgrounds are naturally not to be underestimated. Of course, this is just hearsay; few people can name these ten directors.
But now, the owner of a director-level platinum card has appeared!
In the Heavenly Palace International Club, there's an unwritten tradition: regardless of who they are, anyone holding a director-level platinum card must be treated as a director and also enjoys the rights of founding directors. In the club, with this card in hand, one can participate in all decisions related to Heavenly Palace!
In other words, it's all about the card, not the person.
Chu Zhaonan knew that Zhang Mingqi from Blue Ocean Group had a card like this, but he never would have imagined that Wang Zheng also had one of these director cards!
The implications were self-evident.
Song Mingsheng wasn't so perceptive. Upon seeing the card, he sneered and said, "Who knows if it's real or fake With a tattered old card like that, who could you fool"
Even Cai Bingchun spoke disdainfully: "Do you think I won't find someone to cripple you just because of one card"
Right now, Cai Bingchun had lost all her aristocratic bearing and poise.
Chu Zhaonan stared at Wang Zheng, curious about his next move.
To be honest, Wang Zheng didn't even feel like explaining to a foolish woman like Cai Bingchun. However, it was better to clarify certain things: "This platinum director card is only usable by Heavenly Palace directors. Do you understand the implication"
Looking at their puzzled expressions, Wang Zheng continued to chuckle coldly, "Directors of the Heavenly Palace can freely control everything in the club and utilize any resources. So, before I arrived here, I made a phone call to have someone install a small camera in this private room. That shouldn't be too difficult, right"
Upon hearing these words, Song Mingsheng's and Cai Bingchun's faces instantly turned pale!
"You recorded all of that" Song Mingsheng suddenly stood up and slammed his hands on the table, filled with rage: "Give me back the video! I never expected you to be such a sinister person!"
He realized that some intimate actions he had engaged in with Cai Bingchun in this private room were things that could never see the light of day. If others obtained footage, Song Mingsheng and Cai Bingchun would immediately lose their reputation and image, making it impossible for them to survive in the entertainment industry. Moreover, Cai Bingchun would instantly fall from her status as a top-tier celebrity.
Thinking back to when photos leaked after a similar incident years ago, that Heavenly God Xi no longer dared to toy with female stars and saw his movie offers sharply decline. Even Hong Kong's triad bosses offered a fifty-thousand reward for one of Heavenly God Xi’s hands. Considering such consequences, Song Mingsheng could no longer remain calm; many male fans of Cai Bingchun might become desperate and attempt to harm him if the footage were leaked.
"Wang Zheng, what exactly do you want" Cai Bingchun also realized how serious this was, so she too looked furious.
But Wang Zheng seemed very calm as he chuckled, "If you don't want others to know, don’t do it yourself. Since Mr. Song is aware of the severity, there's no need for him to be so stubborn. We're not children, and we shouldn't play games that frighten each other."
Chu Zhaonan chose not to say anything because he knew things were completely in Wang Zheng’s hands now; Wang Zheng had essentially tied them up with just a few words without leaving any room for retaliation. At this point, Song Mingsheng and Cai Bingchun could only comply.
"You're truly treacherous!" Fuming, Cai Bingchun trembled all over as she grew more afraid the more she thought about it. She couldn't let such a thing happen but her anger made her unable to think of any solution.
After his initial anger subsided, Song Mingsheng actually calmed down: "Speak up, what conditions do you want for me to get back my video footage"
The current Song Mingsheng seemed somewhat defeated; he had initially hoped to use the situation to force Wang Zheng to concede and apologize but found himself being forced into submission instead.
Now, however, Song Mingsheng was even more determined that Wang Zheng could not be allowed to remain.
Sadistically smiling, Wang Zheng said, "Actually, I hadn't thought of any conditions for an exchange, but Young Master Chu just reminded me. Have all the male and female stars in your company become spokespeople for my Illusory Spirit Diamond; naturally, I'll give them a discount on their endorsement fees. How does that sound"
Chu Zhaonan felt he had no reason to stay any longer; Song Mingsheng was already completely defeated while he seemed oblivious to it all.
Cai Bingchun coldly said, "You're really daydreaming. Do you know how many signed artists Song Family Media Group has Do you know how much their endorsement fees add up to in a year It's an astronomical number that you can't even imagine! For them all to endorse me—that would be wishful thinking!"
"Whether it's a lot of money or a little, it’s nothing. As long as Boss Song gives the word, they'll still scramble for free endorsements." Wang Zheng shook his head and smiled, then asked, "Boss Song, are you still agonizing over whether I should apologize"
Song Mingsheng felt extremely uncomfortable with this weak point being hit. He said darkly, "If we follow what you say, will the video not be spread then"
"Of course, I keep my word and guarantee it won’t." Wang Zheng patted his chest: "I assure you with my personal integrity."
"You’ve been using a hidden camera; how can there still be any integrity!" Today Cai Bingchun had been belittled left and right, far exceeding her limits of tolerance. This man was just so infuriating!
“Give me one day to consider.” Song Mingsheng glared coldly at Wang Zheng: "Is that okay"
"Of course." Wang Zheng said with a smile.
"Let's go," said Song Mingsheng as he stood up and pulled Cai Bingchun to leave. However, before they left the room, Song Mingsheng shot a vicious glance at Wang Zheng.
“Boss Song, don’t forget to pay for this meal,” said Wang Zheng with glee. He always liked watching others flee in embarrassment.
"President Song, how could we just leave like this" Cai Bingchun was furious after the door closed behind them.
“What else can we do Can’t let him spread that video! You’re such an inexperienced fool!” Song Mingsheng glared at Cai Bingchun and said viciously: "We mustn't allow Wang Zheng to remain in this world, I have my ways of dealing with it!"
With that, he began making a phone call. “Master Feng, tonight’s matter has changed a bit. I want to eliminate this person completely. Do you think it's feasible”
Song Mingsheng lowered his voice, but the other side could still hear some hesitation: "Boss Song, right now everyone is on high alert for criminal cases and there will be heavy penalties. If just one or two hands are broken, that’s fine, but making a fairly well-known person vanish completely will probably be difficult."
Song Mingsheng's voice lowered even further: "Master Feng, you and I have known each other for a long time; do you want to watch me suffer"
The "Uncle Feng" that Song Mingsheng mentioned clearly refers to Feng Changming, the underground kingpin of Pingjiang District in the past who now resides alone and enjoys himself.
"It's not that I don't want to help you; it's just that my capability is limited," sighed Uncle Feng. "I've been retired for many years, leaving few capable subordinates around me. Although I still have some influence in Pingjiang District now, it’s far from what it used to be."
Song Mingsheng's tone was cold: "Does Uncle Feng really want to see my embarrassment That doesn’t seem like your usual style."
Feng Changming pondered for a moment before saying, "I might not be able to do much in Pingjiang anymore, but I can introduce you to two promising young men. There's one named Li Gang who is quite resourceful and ruthless; as long as there’s money involved, he’ll take on anything. He should suit your needs."
"Then I thank Uncle Feng for the help," Song Mingsheng said, feeling better about the prospects of Wang Zheng disappearing from this world tonight or tomorrow evening: "Uncle Feng, let's have a drink some day soon. We haven’t had a gathering in quite some time."
Inside the private room, Chu Zhaonan smiled and asked Wang Zheng: "Young Master Wang, is there really that secret video as you mentioned"
"What do you think" Wang Zheng replied with a questioning look.
"I don't believe Young Master Wang would resort to such methods. With your intelligence, dealing with my Uncle Ming should be well within your means without needing lowly tactics."
"Sometimes these low-level methods can be the most effective," Wang Zheng said as he put away the platinum card from the table and added with a smile: "But you’re right, there’s no secret video. I usually do such things personally rather than entrusting them to others."
Chu Zhaonan kindly warned, "Young Master Wang, honestly speaking, my Uncle Ming is not very capable but quite vengeful. You should be cautious around him."
Hearing this, a cold light flashed in Wang Zheng's eyes: "Thank you for the reminder, Young Master Chu; as the saying goes, it’s easy to dodge an arrow when seen, hard to avoid one unseen, but I prefer dealing with hidden arrows."
Chu Zhaonan knew Wang Zheng was not joking around and shifted the topic: "Young Master Wang, have you heard about Grandpa Su's birthday next month"
"Yes. That day Mingqi and I had dinner together; Tianran invited her, and conveniently also me," Wang Zheng shook his head with a smile: "In that young master’s eyes, I am still just a sponge."
Chu Zhaonan burst into laughter upon hearing this: "With how much Su Tianran likes Zhang Mingqi, it's no wonder he doesn't like you after you took what was his."ragon Scale Special Forces Unit.
