HuaYu: The most muscular director in history!

"So many?"

"I had no idea there were so many?"

At 3 p.m., in Xiang Nan's office, several people were sitting around the sofa.

An Yugang, Han Jianu, and Chen Yaochuan sat in a row, while Feng Man stood behind Xiang Nan. Each of them had a solemn expression.

On the coffee table in the middle of the circular sofa, there is a list handwritten by Xiang Nan, which contains the location information that Cao Guowei found through Sina, as well as the mastermind that Cao Guowei deduced.

The method of speculation is also very simple: trace back to the source.

Whenever a celebrity has used these online trolls before, whether to promote themselves or cause trouble for their rivals, they will always leave some traces.

"Um……"

In the quiet office, Chen Yaochuan hummed in response, breaking the silence by pointing to a name on an A4 sheet of paper.

"How did you offend this person?"

Xiang Nan rolled his eyes and waved his hand dismissively: "You're still wondering? She's probably Tao Jingying's best friend. That Tao girl got a beating from me, she must be feeling really wronged, so she went to her 'sister' to complain, right?"

Xiang Nan's prompting reminded Chen Yaochuan of something.

"Indeed, A-mei and Tao have always had a good relationship, but I never expected..."

Chen Yaocuan is also from Taiwan and has produced songs for many people from Taiwan and Hong Kong, such as Andy Lau, Anita Mui, and Li Wen.

The young woman frowned and pointed to the second name: "How about Huayi?"

Xiang Nan didn't take the name to heart at all.

"It was bound to happen sooner or later; the reason doesn't matter."

"Gao Xiaosong, Chen Jinfei, and Cai Yinong are all people you've offended, I won't mention them." Chen Yaochuan raised his head suspiciously: "Then why would Zeng Zhiwei come to kick you while you're down?"

"I don't know either."

Xiang Nan frowned, his eyes flashing with fierce light one moment and coldness the next.

It's normal to be retaliated against by someone you've offended, but suddenly someone... wait a minute!

A name popped into Xiang Nan's mind.

"I see."

Chen Yaochuan adjusted his glasses and leaned forward to ask, "What's the reason?"

Xiang Nan let out a deep breath, his eyes filled with helplessness: "Zeng Zhiwei's actions were undoubtedly aided by those two sisters. Another speculation is that Zeng Zhiwei and Leo Ku are good friends, and he himself dislikes mainland artists. I once refused Leo Ku's invitation to write a song, 'Love and Sincerity'."

"This..." Chen Yaochuan was utterly speechless: "Isn't this incredibly stingy? It's just a song; even if a deal falls through, we should still be on good terms!"

Xiang Nan's face twitched.

It seems he really has reason to be angry; I've stolen both "Special Move" and "Love and Sincerity."

Could it be... that he could sense his luck being taken away?

"That might be it." An Yugang, who had been silent all along, finally managed to interject: "Perhaps President Xiang's 'Cantonese album' has threatened them. When the music industry gets dangerous, it's no less so than the film industry."

"Slap! Slap!"

Xiang Nan clapped his hands, interrupting their discussion, "Alright, now that we've analyzed our opponent, it's time to discuss how to deal with them."

It was supposed to be a discussion, but it was basically just him talking.

Xiang Nan wasn't good at managing online trolls; only An Yu in the company knew a thing or two, so he was just asked to handle public relations and control the narrative.

He has his own playing style, and his deep partnership with Cao Guowei can fundamentally solve some problems.

At 11 a.m., after the tasks were assigned, the office returned to calm.

After the three left, Feng Man began clearing the water glasses from the coffee table, and suddenly asked, "Brother Nan, judging from your expression just now, did you still have something to say?"

Feng Man's words were somewhat impolite; how dare a mere assistant secretary guess the boss's thoughts?

But Xiang Nan sniffed and actually told her, "It's no big deal, it's no big deal to say it. I hate crooked butts, crooked butts hate me, we and they are born to fight."

"But you also signed with Sony... Uh! Sorry."

Feng Man's words came to an abrupt end: swaying one's backside and signing with Sony are not the same thing.

Xiang Nan and Sony also had a bad relationship, and he even made outrageous remarks in Taiwan.

After the Golden Melody Awards, the Taiwanese media were shouting themselves hoarse, but the mainland media and officials didn't react at all, which already says something!

"So, are we just going to wait here like this, like a hunter waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump?"

"You can even use idioms!" Xiang Nan smiled.

"Hehe, I'm a translation teacher, after all!"

"Does Japanese also have a 'wait-and-see' aspect?"

After a couple of lighthearted jokes, his smile faded as he looked at the word "slut" on the wall. "I'm waiting, waiting for them to really make their move. There's something important I've been putting off for a long time!"

……

In a hotel in Shanghai, Huang Mouyi, dressed in pajamas, was lying on the bed, typing on a keyboard while making a phone call to Wang Moudan.

"Yes, Dandan, you can never judge a book by its cover. Who would have thought that the big, silly girl who called me 'Senior Sister Huang' so much just two years ago would be such a heartless person?"

"Don't overthink it. It's just an apology. If it really goes to court, that would be terrible!"

Meanwhile, on the Hebei set of the TV series "Mother is a River," Wang Luodan lay on her actor's chair, wrinkling her nose in annoyance.

His ex-girlfriend? Do you know how many people in our school have a crush on him?

Still heartless? Still able to know a person's face but not their heart?

If I were Xiang Nan, I'd be trash if I didn't spray your underwear to shreds!

As she was thinking, Huang Shengyi's voice came through the phone again: "My life is so hard, Dandan, unlike you, you got a drama and a movie right away, sob sob sob..."

"Don't cry, don't cry. Didn't Xinghui get its comeuppance too? That Zhang Baizhi is going to breach her contract too. And Xiang Nan seems to have more dirt on him now?"

"I, I, I know..."

"Huh? You..." Wang Luodan abruptly stopped speaking.

Having spent four years together in college, she knew this person quite well!

Given her usual personality, she would have already burst into laughter with schadenfreude. Her current hesitant and stammering manner definitely suggests something's up.

"Clap clap clap..."

Just then, the sound of keyboard clicks came from the phone.

"Yiyi, are you... chatting with someone?"

"Oh? Um, I'm sorry, I'm a bit busy right now."

Wang Luodan blinked a few times, then finally chuckled and said, "Then you go ahead and get busy."

"Mmm..."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Luodan remained in a daze for a long time.

She had neither connections nor ability, so the only way she could shake Xiang Nan was to find a powerful backer.

Who is it?

……

At the same time, in early August, many forces began to take action simultaneously.

Xiang Nan's rise to prominence was too rapid!

They built a basic fanbase of fame through songs, and somehow managed to raise quick money to support several companies, even launching a TV series this year.

With such an aggressive approach, anyone could guess Xiang Nan's goal: to become a triple-threat superstar in film, television, and music, and at the same time, to take a big bite out of the Chinese entertainment industry.

Since we missed his infancy, we can't afford to miss his adolescence now.

If I can't prevent it from exploding, then I'll destroy you!

Almost simultaneously, some people in Taiwan and Hong Kong spread a lot of negative information about Xiang Nan online, Tangren's Cai Yinong's online army began to take action, Huayi's Xiao Wang and Bona's Yu Dong extended a signing invitation to Yi Fei, the music scene in Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong began to exert its influence, and even Yang Zi spent some money to push things along.

This is a massive, devastating attack targeting Xiang Nan!
