After the divorce, I became a rich girl
Chapter 397: Merchants' Children Are Deceitful
Liu Yuan felt a little restless as the dinner just started. She wanted to say something several times but hesitated. Every time she was about to speak, her father calmly held her arm to stop her.
Liu Yuan looked at her father with a puzzled look in her eyes. She thought to herself, why didn't her father let her speak even though we were already sitting at the dinner table? She really couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
Li Yan and Li Jiawei naturally noticed the little movements of Liu Yanghe and Liu Yuan under the table, but they pretended not to know tacitly.
After all, both parties have their own goals and desires, and it is not difficult to see from Liu Yuan's anxious actions that she is obviously quite anxious about the matters involved in this meeting. Her actions and expressions are watched calmly by Li Yan and Li Jiawei.
Li Jiawei calmly reached out her hand, picked up the teacup in front of her, and took a sip of tea. Her slightly lowered eyes just concealed the shrewdness and consideration that flashed across her eyes.
She knew in her heart that the more anxious Liu Yuan was, the more she had to remain calm, so that she could gain an advantageous position in the negotiation.
After three rounds of drinks and half of the meal, Liu Yuan couldn't suppress her inner anxiety. She stood up suddenly, ignoring her father Liu Yanghe's attempts to stop her, took a deep breath, and told him the purpose of her visit today.
"Mr. Li, I think you must be aware of my identity. I am Deng Yong's wife. I know that what Deng Yong did this time has caused great losses to your company.
I am really being presumptuous today and come to see you with a somewhat embarrassing request. I just hope that you can consider... my father's face and not sue Deng Yong, okay?" Liu Yuan spoke very quickly, as if she was afraid of being interrupted, and she poured out all the words that had been held in her heart for a long time in one breath.
Upon hearing this, Li Jiawei calmly put down her chopsticks. She knew in her heart that everyone present was smart, and pretending to be stupid at this time would only backfire and make people feel hypocritical and artificial.
Moreover, from Liu Yuan's impetuous and straightforward character, she also vaguely glimpsed some of Liu Yanghe's personality.
I guess Liu Yanghe is also a straightforward person who likes to speak quickly, but compared to Liu Yuan, he has experienced more vicissitudes of life, and when encountering things, he can be more calm and composed.
Li Jiawei looked at Liu Yuan calmly and said slowly, "Ms. Liu, your husband's previous actions have indeed caused considerable losses to our company.
Fortunately, Teacher Xie took action in time and was re-editing the script, which managed to minimize the losses.
Actually, when my elder brother asked me to come here today, he had already told me your request in detail. However, Ms. Liu, you also know that although I am the CEO of Universal Pictures, it is not possible for me to make all the decisions for such a large company.
I have to be responsible to the shareholders of the company and take all aspects into consideration, so..."
After hearing what Li Jiawei said, Liu Yuan suddenly felt disappointed, and a flash of disappointment flashed across her eyes. But then she thought that the loss suffered by Universal Pictures was indeed not small, and it seemed reasonable for Li Jiawei to reject her.
But she was still unwilling to give up. She gritted her teeth and continued, "Mr. Li, I know that his actions have brought many adverse effects to your company and caused considerable losses. How about this? Just tell me the amount. No matter how much it is, I will do my best to compensate you for the loss.
Even if I can't pay it all at once, I can pay you the compensation in installments. I just hope you can agree to my request."
Li Jiawei shook her head lightly, with a bit of helplessness on her face, and said: "Ms. Liu, you may have misunderstood what I meant. I don't want to ask you for compensation.
This incident has caused a lot of uproar on the Internet and has had a huge impact. I have to give an explanation to the shareholders of the company, and also to the crew of "Jian Ge" and Teacher Xie Xu. This is not a problem that can be solved simply by compensation."
Li Jiawei paused for a moment, then continued, "However, since Teacher Liu and my father are friends, as a junior, I naturally have to give Teacher Liu face.
Let's put aside the issue of compensation for now. As long as you ask your husband, Mr. Deng Yong, to publicly issue a sincere apology statement to Universal Pictures, all the crew members of "Jian Ge" and Teacher Xie Xu, explain the cause and effect of this matter clearly, and express his apology, then we will put this matter behind us and no one will mention it again in the future."
After hearing what Li Jiawei said, Liu Yuan's heart, which had been hanging in the air, instantly fell to the ground, as if a big stone had fallen to the ground, and she immediately felt extremely relieved. She subconsciously turned her head to look at her father who was sitting next to her, and saw that there was no obvious reaction on his face.
She quickly said, "Mr. Li, isn't this really putting your company at a disadvantage? I really feel bad about this. Why don't you give me a number so I can compensate you accordingly? Otherwise, I'll always feel like I owe you something."
Li Jiawei quickly waved her hands and responded sincerely, "Really, no need, Ms. Liu. You see, the drama "Jian Ge" is currently being filmed normally. The losses incurred before can be slowly made up through the smooth progress of the drama.
If I accept your compensation now, wouldn't that be taking advantage of you? Your father and my father are friends, and our two families are old friends. I can't do this and ruin the relationship between our two families."
Liu Yanghe sat quietly aside, his eyes first falling on Li Yan, who had not spoken much. After staying for a moment, he slowly moved his eyes to Li Jiawei, who was talking to his daughter so hard that she was dizzy and nodding repeatedly.
For a moment, his thoughts seemed to drift away, and he couldn't help feeling a little dazed. He wondered to himself, could it be true that "like father, like mother" is true, and children born to businessmen would be deceitful?
To be honest, he had heard something about Li Jiawei's background before.
I heard that she was taken away by mistake in the hospital when she was a child, and was taken back to the Li family after many years. It has not been many years since she returned to the Li family.
But in just a few short years, she has been very successful in the business world. Although this is inseparable from the support of the Li family behind the scenes, after all, the family's foundation and resources are there, which must have been a great help to her development.
