Chapter 3821: The Talk Breaks Down

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Wang Minji looked at Lin Yi with a cold expression.

"I already gave him a chance. As long as he apologizes and writes a self-criticism, this matter will be over."

Zhang Qingyu looked at Lin Yi.

"What do you think?"

"I saw the parking spot first, and everything is about first come, first served. Why should I give up the parking spot? Besides, they started it, asking me to apologize and write a self-criticism is a bit too much, right?"

"She is Xu Qingqing, what qualifications do you have to compare with her!" Wang Minji scolded loudly.

"She’s not your mom, why are you so worked up?"

"Say that again!" Wang Minji said through gritted teeth.

"It’ll be the same if I say it again, just a celebrity, is it worth holding her up so high?"

"You don’t understand a thing, she’s a top star now!"

"Don’t talk about top stars, even if she were a tumor, it has nothing to do with me. Asking me to apologize indiscriminately, what are you thinking?"

"You!"

Wang Minji was so angry that he couldn’t speak, wanting to retort, but not knowing what to say.

After all, Li Wei was indeed at fault first, and there’s no arguing about it anywhere.

"Director Zhang, that’s how it is. My bottom line is for him to apologize and write a self-criticism. If Xu Qingqing is unhappy, the show can’t be recorded."

Zhang Qingyu didn’t look very happy.

He also felt that Wang Minji was indulging these celebrities too much.

This is a TV station, it should have its seriousness and authority, you can’t let a celebrity lead you by the nose.

"In the end, Lin Yi wasn’t wrong, it was them taking advantage of their celebrity status to act overbearingly, go back and have a good talk with them, no need to escalate things."

Wang Minji heard the undertone of Zhang Qingyu’s words.

He also knew Zhao Mo was on his side and would speak up for them at times like this.

"Director Zhang, actually my demands are not excessive. If he doesn’t apologize, I can’t continue as the producer."

"Then don’t do it, losing you won’t stop the Earth from spinning."

Lin Yi retorted to Wang Minji, whose face turned particularly ugly, filled with rage, but nowhere to vent.

"Director Zhang, look at this person, he’s definitely a black sheep, absolutely can’t keep him."

"Lin Yi, I know you’re young and impetuous, but mind your words, this isn’t your home."

"I know, but he’s making a mountain out of a molehill." Lin Yi said:

"Threatening to quit at the drop of a hat, who is he trying to scare?"

"Alright, just say a few less words."

Zhao Mo held her forehead, feeling a bit of a headache.

They say the post-2000s are reforming the workplace, Lin Yi is much more aggressive.

"This isn’t just about saying a few less words, I’m just annoyed by people who pretend like this. If he doesn’t want to be a producer, you can take over, I’m sure you’ll do better than him."

Zhao Mo was stunned, not expecting Lin Yi to drag her into this.

"Don’t fool around, now is not the time for jokes."

"I’m not joking, if he doesn’t want to do it, you just take over."

Lin Yi looked at Wang Minji, smiling, and said:

"Producer Wang, you just said you didn’t want to do it, if our leader takes over your work, there shouldn’t be any problem, right? It’ll solve the issue, and I won’t have to apologize to them."

"You!"

Wang Minji trembled with anger, not expecting Lin Yi to play this trick.

This also surprised Zhang Qingyu and Zhao Mo.

Lin Yi is obviously very young, but his wordplay is so skillful, not like someone of his age, more like a seasoned veteran, easily managing Wang Minji.

"Alright Lin Yi, don’t keep pressing your advantage."

After speaking, Zhang Qingyu looked at Wang Minji, "Go and talk to Xu Qingqing properly, tell her Lin Yi will write an apology letter to them, don’t pursue this matter further, let them save face for me."

Zhang Qingyu’s method wasn’t really for Lin Yi to write an apology letter himself, but to find someone to write one, a mutually agreeable solution.

"Got it, Director Zhang."

Wang Minji had no choice, Zhang Qingyu spoke to this extent, he had to give face.

Ring ring —

Just then, Wang Minji’s phone rang, it was a call from a director below.

"Sir, bad news, Xu Qingqing said she’s not recording the show anymore."

"Hmm? Why wouldn’t she record a perfectly good show?"

"She says no one came to apologize, we’ve been persuading for a long time, but she won’t listen, insists that person must apologize, otherwise she won’t record."

"Alright, I got it."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Minji looked at Lin Yi, then at Zhang Qingyu.

"Director Zhang, the director called and said Xu Qingqing wants him to apologize in person, otherwise the show won’t be recorded."

Zhang Qingyu frowned, not expecting Xu Qingqing to cause this much trouble.

"Let’s do this, call Xu Qingqing here, I’ll talk to her."

"Alright."

Wang Minji called Li Wei, briefly explaining the situation to him.

In a few minutes, the two arrived at the office.

Seeing Lin Yi there, their faces instantly changed.

"I’ve already heard about what happened between you two, there’s no need for this unpleasantness. Later, I’ll have Lin Yi write an apology letter, no need to blow this out of proportion."

"Director Zhang, it’s a small matter to you, but it’s a big deal to us, and it’s not the first time, since I debuted, I haven’t been treated like this."

Xu Qingqing sat on the sofa, crossing her legs and said:

"And I’m already giving you face, just asking him to apologize and write a self-criticism, don’t bully us too much."

Seeing Xu Qingqing’s attitude, Zhang Qingyu was also a bit annoyed, these young celebrities are getting quite presumptuous.

"I already know the incident, talking about the issue itself, Lin Yi saw the parking spot first and parked his car, there’s nothing wrong with that, he didn’t do anything wrong."

"But I’m an invited guest artist, can’t I at least get this special treatment?" Xu Qingqing’s tone raised:

"And he also hit someone, this matter needs to be settled, right?"

"Seems like it was your manager who made the first move, right?"

Xu Qingqing’s attitude changed, "What do you mean my manager made the first move? Just touched his shoulder and that counts as making a move? My bodyguard was also hit by him, is this how your station treats celebrities?"

"I hope to resolve this matter peacefully, that’s why I called you here, out of respect, I said so much."

At first, Zhang Qingyu thought Lin Yi was talented and didn’t want to fire him, so he kept speaking nicely.

But now, Xu Qingqing’s attitude made him very dissatisfied, even showing signs of anger.

"I don’t want to hear anymore, if he doesn’t apologize, I won’t record the show, do as you see fit."

After speaking, Xu Qingqing walked out directly, Li Wei followed behind without saying anything, supporting her with his actions.
