Chapter 291: Interlocking Stratagems Attack (6) Lu Manman saw the ace manager as well. He was standing on the balcony, smoking a cigarette and chatting with a male artist. Gu Xin pulled Lu Manman over, and Zhang Wei looked at her in surprise. “This is the first time I’m seeing Miss Lu. Oh, wait, I should be calling you Madam Mo now. This is the first time I’m seeing Madam Mo at a gathering like this. Nice to meet you.” “Hello, Mr. Zhang.” Lu Manman reached out her hand. Zhang Wei hurriedly shook her hand. After the two of them greeted each other politely, Lu Manman said to Zhang Wei, “I wonder if Mr. Zhang has the time to chat with me?” “You’re looking for me?” 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎 “Isn’t Jiang Xiaolian an artist under you? I think we have a reason to talk.” Lu Manman smiled. “Of course, please.” With that, Zhang Wei politely led Lu Manman to the garden. Gu Xin watched them leave and felt unhappy. She quickly turned around and headed to the living room to play. Lu Manman and Zhang Wei sat in the garden. There were some desserts in front of them, and the two of them ate their portions. “Madam Mo, feel free to speak your mind,” Zhang Wei said directly. “I actually want Mr. Zhang to collaborate with me.” Lu Manman wiped the corners of her mouth and smiled. “I want to support the newbie in your hands.” “In that case, I’m happy to cooperate.” “I know that Mr. Zhang is a straightforward person, so I won’t beat around the bush. I want to replace Jiang Xiaolian as the spokesperson for our Lu Firm’s telecommunications industry and choose the newbie in your hands,” Lu Manman said directly. “Replace Jiang Xiaolian?” Zhang Wei was shocked. He thought for a while and then said, “If I remember correctly, Jiang Xiaolian still has three years to go before her endorsement contract is signed.” “That’s why I need to work with you.” “Please speak your mind, Madam Mo.” “Our Lu Firm doesn’t want to pay for Jiang Xiaolian’s breach of contract, and the money we saved can be used for your new endorsement fee,” Lu Manman said directly. “Violating the contract is a legal process, and I’m just a small manager. I can’t make the final decision.” Zhang Wei shook his head, thinking that Lu Manman was just daydreaming. “No, it’s doable as long as you want to.” “If the management company can’t do it, then it’s even more impossible for me,” Zhang Wei said with slight disdain. Lu Manman pursed her lips and smiled. “When I signed the contract, I remember that there was one clause: if an artist’s image and endorsement is affected by their own negative news, Lu Firm can terminate the contract without paying the penalty. At the same time, based on the severity of the situation, we can get the artist to compensate Lu Firm with the corresponding amount.” Zhang Wei narrowed his eyes and said sarcastically, “Do you think I would defame the artists in my hands?” “Based on what I know, Jiang Xiaolian has been developing in your hands, but she doesn’t listen to your plans at all. She’s always going her own way, and you have to clean up the mess for her most of the time. Not to mention anything else, she even reported to the boss of the company about how you were heartless to her and forcibly reduced the commission in her hands to the lowest. It’s alright when you were just a small manager in the past, but now that you’ve developed to this point, you’re being bullied by her all the time. Are you willing?!” Zhang Wei looked at Lu Manman and scrutinized her. “Moreover, I’ve said it before. I’ll use Jiang Xiaolian’s reputation to exchange for your next artist. You can think about which would be more worth it,” Lu Manman said calmly. “Jiang Xiaolian won’t be able to bring you any benefits. Moreover, she’s already going downhill, but she’s still holding her status high. I don’t think you need to tolerate it. All these years, don’t you want to vent your anger?”
