C20 Expensive Gifts

The banquet hall fell into chaos upon hearing the news of Zhouyang's and Linyu's marriage. Now, the companies that had previously cooperated with Fame Corporation began to raise doubts regarding the integrity of the company.

"Hmph! Listing something as a fact based solely on what one person said, all of you have far too shallow of sights."

Zhouyang said coldly. His gaze looked around and stopped on the faces of the few people who were hooting the most.

"Hmph! Zhouyang, who knows if you've colluded with Xie Lingyu in the dark and purposely made her draw up the proposal according to your request!"

"Exactly, there must be an explanation for this matter. Our cooperation needs to be frank and open. We are also afraid that there will be secret cooperations between you and your wife in the future!"

"Young Master Chen, whatever you say, we will follow and do!"

Now, it was Chen Junsheng's turn to be a bit stunned. He didn't think that these people would even try to pull him along when they threatened him.

However, thinking about the humiliation he suffered in the public meeting, Chen Junsheng's mind turned hot, and let out a wicked smile: "That's right, that's what I meant to say too!"

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Zhouyang and Shen Bijun.

If they did not have a good response, these companies that had been cooperating with Fame would all refuse to cooperate with them any longer.

To each of them, this was undoubtedly a loss. But to Fame Company, the losses were even heavier.

"This is great! My dear sister, do you want to protect this brat this time?"

Shen Ze clapped his hands and looked at Shen Bijun with an evil smile.

"So this is the true nature of each and every one of you company?"

Zhouyang remained unfazed despite the uproars in the hall. After looking around, he said softly.

"That's right! Zhouyang, you have to give us an explanation today!"

Chen Junsheng pointed at Zhouyang and said aggressively.

"Good! I'll give you an explanation!"

Zhouyang turned around and walked to the center of the Soaring Dragon Hall. Then, he began speaking slowly while looking at everyone.

"Since you want to cancel your cooperation with Fame company so badly, then I will do as you wish! Sister Ye, bring out all of their contracts! "

When Zhouyang finished his sentence, everyone was dumbfounded.

Ye Chuqian was stunned for a moment before she immediately turned around to get the contracts.

The others didn't even have time to react to his response.

"What did you just say?"

Chen Junsheng looked at Zhouyang in disbelief of what he had just announced to everyone in the hall.

"Manager Zhou, these are the contracts with the present companies."

Ye Chuqian quickly returned and handed the contract over to Zhouyang.

"These are your contracts with Fame Company. From now on, Fame Company revoke these contracts for cooperation with you!"

With that, Zhouyang tore the contracts in his hands into pieces in front of everyone.

"Zhouyang! How dare you!"

"Impudent! Stop right now!"

"Director Shen, you must give us an explanation. You are breaking the agreements written in the contract, I will sue you!"

Everyone was shocked and angry at the same time. They wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.

Zhouyang raised the pieces of now scrap paper in his hand and threw it into the air, spreading it across the Soaring Dragon Hall.

At this moment, the contract between Fame Company and whatever companies present had been revoked!

"Hehe, Zhouyang is Fame Company's second largest shareholder. His decision is Fame Company's decision."

Shen Bijun crossed her arms in front of her chest as she watched Zhouyang tear up the contracts. Although she was a little surprised, she did not stop him.

On the contrary, a look of satisfaction flashed across her eyes.

"Starting from today, cooperation with your companies will be canceled immediately. We no longer have any interest in working with your companies. As for breaking the contracts, the legal matters will simply be dealt with later on."

"Furthermore, if any of you want to cooperate with us in the future, we will refuse your cooperation no matter what you do or say!"

Even after doing all that, Zhouyang's expression remained indifferent.

His seemingly preposterous words caused everyone present to fall into a state of shock yet again.

After all, this was no longer a matter of breaching the contract, but Zhouyang representing Fame company to unilaterally ban these companies from ever working with him again.

Everyone present was all from the cosmetics industry in the entire city. Although there might be a few who could match up to Fame Corporation in terms of scale, no one really stood out this time in the presence of Fame Company.

With the commencement of the Whitening and Anti-Aging Factor Project close to hand, more and more people began noticing the prospects and potential of this project.

It was definitely not a wise move to offend a Fame company for a mere few companies, and thus lose the benefits they had in the Whitening and Anti-Aging Factor Project.

"This has gone too far! Who do you think you are, Zhouyang? Just because you said you would ban us from cooperating with Fame Company in the future, would that really be the case? You think too highly of yourself!"

Chen Junsheng sneered. He didn't believe that Zhouyang had such capabilities at all.

In his heart, even though Zhouyang was now in charge of the Whitening and Anti-Aging Factor Project and is a large shareholder in Fame Company, he still could not get rid of his identity as that son-in-law of the Xie Family.

"Don't worry, Director Shen, Manager Zhou, our company will definitely not cooperate with any of these companies in the future."

At this moment, a middle-aged man stood up to give Shen Bijun and Zhouyang a light nod. As president of Beauty Co., Zhang Hui, an influential figure in the cosmetics industry, was the first to state that he would side with Fame Company in this case.

The influence that Beauty Co. possessed in the city should also not be looked down on. After all, it was known to be on-par with the influence of Fame Company for quite a while.

Now that Beauty Co. had declared their stance, the other companies could no longer sit still and immediately expressed their opinions as well.

"Director Shen, Manager Zhou, don't worry. We will not cooperate with a company that would question the rationality of the shareholders in other companies!"

"That's right. After I return back to my company, I will immediately cancel all cooperation with them!"

"..."

At that moment, all the companies present expressed their support for Fame Corporation's decision to cancel their collaboration with Chen Junsheng and the other protesting companies.

"Director Zhang, you!"

Chen Junsheng's face was filled with disbelief. He looked at Zhang Hui of Beauty Co. with a surprised expression and felt a turbid air clogging his chest.

"Hehe, Young Master Chen, you can't blame me for this. While your family's company may already be too wealthy to care about the following projects of Fame Company, we, on the other hand, cannot afford to do so.

Director Zhang said lightly.

"Oh right, I don't seem to even remember sending out an invitation letter to attend this banquet to your Jun Fa Company. Why did the security guards at the entrance even let you in?"

Zhouyang raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Junsheng with his bright eyes.

"I'm the one who brought him in. Do you have any objections?"

Shen Ze suddenly spoke and looked at Zhouyang provocatively.

"I do indeed have an objection. Without an invitation letter, you aren't allowed to barge into such an occasion without permission from the invitee. If it's serious, I can even call the police!"

Zhouyang said softly, then his gaze fell on the security guards who had been standing at the periphery of the hall the entire time.

"If you guys don't want to be fired, then please remove this Young Master Chen from the hall!"

"Zhouyang, don't be too presumptuous!"

Shen Ze's face was ashen as he growled like a wild dog while glaring menacingly at Zhouyang.

Since he was the one who brought Chen Junsheng in, it was clear that Zhouyang did not want to give him face by chasing him out in front of the crowd.

Even though he could endure being scolded in front of so many people by his sister Shen Bijun, he could not stand a mere shareholder humiliating him in front of everyone. This prevented Shen Ze from holding back his anger.

"Am I really being too presumptuous?"

Zhouyang fearful of this situation started straight into Shen Ze's eyes.

"Who told me to scram the moment they opened they mouth?"

"Who said they were going to fire me?"

"Who even wanted to slander me?"

"Young Master Shen couldn't have forgotten so quickly, right?"

Zhouyang did not pause and directly asked.

The series of rhetorical questions caused Shen Ze's face to turn even uglier.

The bystanders slightly nodded their heads, fully aware of what just took place previously.

If looking at who started the trouble to begin with, it would undoubtedly by Shen Ze. Zhouyang was simply retaliating againt him and defending himself and the people around him.

But what about Shen Ze?

Having been pampered since he was born, no one dared to go against his wishes.

Now that Zhouyang had embarrassed him in front of everyone, he could not accept it no matter what.

"So what if it's me? Just because you used the money that you acquired from who knows where and became a shareholder of Fame Company, do you really think I won't be able to get rid of you?"

Shen Ze's expression darkened as he shook off the two women in his arms. He then took two steps forward and stood in front of Zhouyang.

"Let me tell you! Not to mention you being just a small shareholder, even if it's my good sister, as long as I open my mouth and demand it, she will have to hand over the Fame Company to me! Do you believe me?"

Shen Ze's words shocked everyone.

Even Zhouyang's heart trembled slight as he took a quite glance at Shen Bijun from the corner of his eyes.

He did not know what Shen Ze meant by those words. After all, he does not know whether there might be some kind of family dispute within the Shen Family between Shen Bijun and her brother.

However, Zhouyang simply let out a chuckle the next second.

At the same time, he secretly to a peek at Shen Bijun. Being the first to notice his glance, Shen Bijun responded to Zhouyang by giving him a reassured look.

Her reassurance made Zhouyang feel even more confident.

As long as the Fame company was still under Shen Bijun's control, he didn't need to worry about anything else.

"I don't believe it!"

Zhouyang shook his head slowly. He looked at Shen Ze teasingly, as if provoking him.

In fact, Zhouyang was indeed provoking him.

Since Shen Ze was already so against him, if Zhouyang does not retaliate and remain as submissive as his previous self, it would not bode well for his current status.

Moreover, he had plans to one day be in control of the entire Zhou Group. If he backed down now, how would he be able to convince the masses in the future?

"You!"

Shenze's facial expression changed slightly, never expecting Zhouyang to be so tactless.

"Just you wait!"

Shen Ze let out a roar and proceede to take out his phone in front of everyone to make a call.

"It's over, Young Master Shen definitely just called his father."

"Yeah, even if Shen Bijun supports Zhouyang, I'm afraid even she won't be able to pass her father's trial."

"Having stated our stance in this situation previously, would there be..."

When everyone saw Shen Ze's confidence, they began speculating and discussing the most probable outcome.

There were even a few companies who started to regret their earlier statements which supported Zhouyang.

At this point, all gazes pointed towards Shen Ze, waiting in suspense for him to finish his call.
