Chapter 372
In front of Andy, Dong Tian was simply a pathetic, self-satisfied upstart who didn't know it. Every time he saw Andy, he felt ashamed and inferior.
Those hidden desires and cravings for Andy were buried deeper and more thoroughly by Dong Tian from then on.
This time going to Europe,
Dong Tian could only talk to Andy for less than two minutes before leaving in a hurry.
This made Dong Tian crave Andy even more, but his own psychology gradually became distorted.
After returning to China,
Dong Tian gradually began to increase his punitive measures against the company's artists, and his personal life gradually became more uninhibited.
But there was one common point:
every woman who woke up beside Dong Tian had a little bit of Andy in her.
Whether it was the corners of her eyes or her dress, they all had Andy's shadow.
And Dong Tian vented his dissatisfaction and inferiority on these women day after day...
Later, as Xiren Media gradually expanded and the company had nearly a hundred artists, and also had a certain say in the entertainment industry,
Dong Tian began to rack his brains, sending money and people, just to climb one more level, from a media company boss to someone in the investment circle.
This step,
not only Dong Tian, but also Mr. Wang of Huayi and Mr. Yang of Tangren were taking it.
But it was obvious that their step was very difficult.
Until one day,
Dong Tian was introduced to attend a high-end gathering of the Great Xia investment circle, and it was clearly stated that a top-level investor who could easily control the life and death of enterprises would attend this gathering.
Then,
Dong Tian prepared carefully, hoping to shine at this investment gathering, gain the recognition and favor of those investors, and prepare to step into the investment circle.
Then,
Dong Tian saw Andy, who was surrounded by everyone that day.
And Andy was the top-level investor in the investment circle that day.
Looking at Andy,
Dong Tian was exceptionally disappointed and helpless.
He didn't expect that his years of hard work and struggle would actually take him further and further away from Andy.
Even,
when he tried hard to become a bottom-level person in the investment circle, Andy had already become the top level of the Great Xia investment power.
The gap between him and Andy was too far.
And this made him angry and ashamed, so he began to exploit the company's artists even more severely.
Basically,
all artists currently signed to long-term contracts with Xiren Film and Television were instructed by him to take on roles frantically, and he secretly increased the company's commission.
Then,
he began to form his own makeshift team, imitating classic variety shows to make his own variety shows.
The company's artists almost participated in variety shows for zero remuneration.
But even so, the few variety shows Dong Tian made ended up losing everything.
In order to fill the hole as soon as possible,
Dong Tian had to target the company's most profitable artists.
Then,
Tian Ai, whose contract was about to expire, became the first target for summer wool-shearing, so he used many means against Tian Ai...
...
Come to think of it,
these were all Dong Tian's self-imagined pasts, and they had almost nothing to do with Andy.
Over the past ten years,
Andy and Dong Tian had only interacted three times.
The first time was when Dong Tian went to Europe to find an investment bank and wanted to kneel before the foreigners to beg for investment.
Andy helped Dong Tian revise the project proposal out of a selfish desire to maintain the face of her countrymen, and through personal relationships and interest exchanges, won the initial investment of one million euros for Dong Tian.
Three years later, when Dong Tian's career was developing steadily,
Andy took the opportunity to withdraw her investment and sold her 30% stake for 60 million Great Xia currency.
Calculated, Andy's total return on this investment was six times, and the annualized return was less than 15%, which was one of the lowest returns on projects Andy had handled since then.
So since then, although Dong Tian had tried to find Andy through others many times, Andy had refused directly.
In Andy's view,
Dong Tian might succeed because this person was ruthless and shameless.
Abroad, he could actually kneel in the lobby of someone else's company, begging others to give him a chance in such a humiliating way.
Although Andy understood, she didn't support it.
The reason she helped,
was not because of Dong Tian,
but because of the Great Xia behind Dong Tian.
Andy didn't want people in the company to think that the people of Great Xia were all soft-kneed wretches like Dong Tian; Great Xia also had men who could strive for self-improvement.
Therefore, Andy wanted to help Dong Tian get the investment as soon as possible, and then hurry home to stop embarrassing himself.
That one million euros,
actually, the company only contributed a small part.
The rest were funds Andy raised by her own ability.
However,
Andy didn't tell Dong Tian this.
She would rather spend money to buy Dong Tian's shameful kneeling than hope that Dong Tian would be grateful to her for it.
The second time,
was a few years later, when Dong Tian had achieved success and was ready to kill back to Europe to confess his love to Andy.
But that time,
Andy was already the investment vice president of the company's major region.
She held hundreds of billions of investment cases in her hands.
She didn't want to and simply didn't have time to pay attention to Dong Tian, and for no reason, she felt very annoyed with Dong Tian.
Therefore,
although Dong Tian spent a lot of money and found many connections,
Andy only gave Dong Tian less than two minutes to speak in the end.
When she heard Dong Tian, just as Andy thought, invite Andy to return to the country for development with the attitude of an upstart,
Andy's good upbringing told her not to show the disunity of the Great Xia people in front of foreigners.
In fact, she was already completely speechless about Dong Tian in her heart.
After finding an excuse to let Dong Tian leave,
Andy looked at the European scenery outside the window and smiled somewhat disappointedly.
During her years abroad,
Andy truly felt that Great Xia was developing rapidly.
However,
the national strength of Great Xia was developing in an all-round way,
but many people in Great Xia had not gotten rid of that impoverished image.
Even if they were wealthy, even if they were splashing gold as they walked,
they were all upstart images that could not be described.
