YM778.TV Chapter 257
I think it was because of Tao Manying.
Lei Cheng is the financial backer behind Tao Manying, which is hardly a secret in the entertainment industry.
Ding Ruilong would suddenly come to Lei Cheng, which means that Tao Manying’s endorsement for Symphony Fashion was leaked in advance!
It’s not a surprise.
There were only a few days left before the new product launch conference of Symphony Fashion. Tao Manying was currently in Donghai, shooting a series of advertising materials with Symphony Fashion, and would wait until after the launch conference to leave!
Work inevitably involved contact with all kinds of people, and leaking information was inevitable. Ding Ruilong had been keeping an eye on Li Ruobing.
“What did he say?” Wu Chen asked with an indifferent smile.
“He first announced his identity, and then said…” Lei Cheng told Wu Chen the situation very frankly and without reservation.
Ding Ruilong called Lei Cheng, and the two exchanged a few polite words. Ding Ruilong then got to the point, saying that he hoped Lei Cheng would make Tao Manying break the contract, and Ding Ruilong promised to bear all the losses caused by Lei Cheng!
Then, Lei Cheng pretended not to understand and asked Ding Ruilong why he wanted to destroy Li Ruobing’s business. Wasn’t he pursuing Li Ruobing all this time?
Ding Ruibing said that he didn’t want Li Ruobing to have a career, said that he would marry Li Ruobing in the future, etc., hinting at Lei Cheng.
Afterwards, Lei Cheng expressed his embarrassment, talking about business reputation, saying that it was difficult to explain to Ms. Li Ruobing, etc. He declined politely.
Ding Ruilong also told Lei Cheng overtly and secretly what benefits he could give him, but he did not change Lei Cheng’s attitude!
In the end, he did not say anything.
After listening to what Lei Cheng said, Wu Chen roughly understood that Ding Ruilong didn’t explain this matter thoroughly, and Lei Cheng also pretended to be stupid. Because the two parties were not familiar with each other, they would definitely not talk too thoroughly on the first call.
From a mental point of view, Ding Ruilong probably thought that Lei Cheng was just the second son of the Hongfa Lei family, a loser in the family’s internal strife. He thought that Lei Cheng would directly give him face, and maybe even hug his thigh!
But Lei Cheng didn’t!
No matter how crazy Ding Ruilong was, there was no way he would threaten Lei Cheng or something if Lei Cheng didn’t agree.
He’s not that brainless.
The Lei family was richer and more powerful than Su Ruiwen, the richest man in Donghai, and the Su family!
The family assets exceed 20 billion!
The total assets of Hongfa Weixing Precision Group controlled by the Lei family must exceed 60 billion!
Hongfa was the leader in Huaixi, an industrialist, and had developed over the past few decades. It has a frighteningly deep foundation! The intertwined relationships between the top and bottom make it extremely difficult to be shaken by external forces!
The Ding family was not incapable of moving the Lei family, but… because of a bad endorsement, it is impossible for the Ding family to go to the Lei family to cause trouble.
With just the third generation Ding Ruilong, he personally could touch the Lei family!
So…
Ding Ruilong would not easily start a conflict with Lei Cheng!
The most important reason for this was that no matter how bad Lei Cheng was, he was still the second son of the Lei family. No matter how inclined his father Lei Zhenghui was to the eldest son, he could allow outsiders to bully his son because of a trivial matter.
Ding Ruilong’s understanding of the current internal situation of the Lei family was limited, and he would not act rashly.
“Ding Ruilong finally told me… that he would come to Donghai to meet me and talk to me about this matter face to face,” Lei Cheng finally said.
Wu Chen raised his eyebrows again after hearing this! The smile on his face couldn’t help but grow a little more.
Ding Ruilong made a mistake!
That was he didn’t know the relationship between Lei Cheng and Wu Chen!
Wu Chen and Lei Cheng met while playing games. They met secretly that day and had no contact since then. No one in Donghai knew that Wu Chen and Lei Cheng were friends . Lei Cheng knew him, and none of the current rumors about Wu Chen in Donghai involved Lei Cheng.
From Ding Ruilong’s perspective, he must have thought that it was Lei Cheng who was contacted by Li Ruobing, so he invited Tao Manying to speak for him.
This made sense.
It’s unreasonable for Wu Chen to know Lei Cheng!
Ding Ruilong didn’t know that Lei Cheng knew Wu Chen, nor did he know that Lei Cheng had already decided to side with Wu Chen, but he wanted to come to Donghai to meet Lei Cheng in private… This was a very serious mistake!
Wu Chen could not directly know when Ding Ruilong would come to Donghai, whether he would come secretly, when he would meet Li Ruobing, and whether he would cause trouble secretly. It was hard to say! But now it was an illusion.
The new product launch conference of Symphony Fashion was approaching. Since Ding Ruilong wanted to stop Tao Manying from being an endorser, if he secretly came to Donghai, the first person he wants to meet will definitely be Lei Cheng!
This meant that Wu Chen would know the whereabouts of Ding Ruilong!
“Brother, why would Ding Ruilong come to Donghai…” After Lei Cheng finished speaking, he asked Wu Chen. He naturally understood that Ding Ruilong couldn’t have come to Donghai just for him. He probably had something to do with Li Ruobing.
“A lot of things have happened recently.” Wu Chen smiled, “Well… Brother Lei, let’s make an appointment for us to meet.”
“Okay, let’s do it in the afternoon. I have time in the afternoon. When is it convenient for you?” Lei Cheng said it very happily.
After that, the two agreed on a time and place to meet.
He hung up.
Wu Chen continued to watch TV as if nothing happened.
Less than half an hour passed…
“Mr. Wu, it’s time to start lunch…” Zhuang Xiaodie brought the last two dishes to the table and came out of the restaurant and said to Wu Chen.
“Huh?” Wu Chen turned his head and glanced, smiled and agreed, “Okay.”
He turned off the TV.
Wu Chen went upstairs first and called Li Ruobing.
More than ten minutes later, Wu Chen and Li Ruobing went downstairs.
They had a meal.
Wu Chen just picked up the chopsticks.
Ding-ding-ding…
His cell phone rang again.
Putting down his chopsticks and taking out his cell phone, Wu Chen looked at it… it was still Lei Cheng calling!
Wu Chen picked it up and put it to his ear.
“Lai You called me! It’s also about endorsement,” Lei Cheng said directly.
“Heh.” Wu Chen laughed.
Ding Ruilong made another mistake!
