Every time he saw Andy, he felt ashamed and inferior.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Those hidden desires and cravings for Andy were buried deeper and more thoroughly by Dong Tian from then on.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This time going to Europe,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dong Tian could only talk to Andy for less than two minutes before leaving in a hurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This made Dong Tian crave Andy even more, but his own psychology gradually became distorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After returning to China,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dong Tian gradually began to increase his punitive measures against the company's artists, and his personal life gradually became more uninhibited.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But there was one common point:\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>every woman who woke up beside Dong Tian had a little bit of Andy in her.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Whether it was the corners of her eyes or her dress, they all had Andy's shadow.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And Dong Tian vented his dissatisfaction and inferiority on these women day after day...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Later, as Xiren Media gradually expanded and the company had nearly a hundred artists, and also had a certain say in the entertainment industry,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This step,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>not only Dong Tian, but also Mr. Wang of Huayi and Mr. Yang of Tangren were taking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But it was obvious that their step was very difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Until one day,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Then,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Then,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dong Tian saw Andy, who was surrounded by everyone that day.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And Andy was the top-level investor in the investment circle that day.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Looking at Andy,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dong Tian was exceptionally disappointed and helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He didn't expect that his years of hard work and struggle would actually take him further and further away from Andy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The gap between him and Andy was too far.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And this made him angry and ashamed, so he began to exploit the company's artists even more severely.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Basically,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Then,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>he began to form his own makeshift team, imitating classic variety shows to make his own variety shows.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The company's artists almost participated in variety shows for zero remuneration.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But even so, the few variety shows Dong Tian made ended up losing everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In order to fill the hole as soon as possible,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dong Tian had to target the company's most profitable artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Then,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Tian Ai, whose contract was about to expire, became the first target for summer wool-shearing, so he used many means against Tian Ai...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Come to think of it,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>these were all Dong Tian's self-imagined pasts, and they had almost nothing to do with Andy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Over the past ten years,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy and Dong Tian had only interacted three times.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Three years later, when Dong Tian's career was developing steadily,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy took the opportunity to withdraw her investment and sold her 30% stake for 60 million Great Xia currency.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>So since then, although Dong Tian had tried to find Andy through others many times, Andy had refused directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In Andy's view,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dong Tian might succeed because this person was ruthless and shameless.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although Andy understood, she didn't support it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The reason she helped,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>was not because of Dong Tian,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>but because of the Great Xia behind Dong Tian.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Therefore, Andy wanted to help Dong Tian get the investment as soon as possible, and then hurry home to stop embarrassing himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>That one million euros,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>actually, the company only contributed a small part.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The rest were funds Andy raised by her own ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy didn't tell Dong Tian this.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She would rather spend money to buy Dong Tian's shameful kneeling than hope that Dong Tian would be grateful to her for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The second time,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But that time,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy was already the investment vice president of the company's major region.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She held hundreds of billions of investment cases in her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Therefore,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>although Dong Tian spent a lot of money and found many connections,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy only gave Dong Tian less than two minutes to speak in the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>When she heard Dong Tian, just as Andy thought, invite Andy to return to the country for development with the attitude of an upstart,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy's good upbringing told her not to show the disunity of the Great Xia people in front of foreigners.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In fact, she was already completely speechless about Dong Tian in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After finding an excuse to let Dong Tian leave,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy looked at the European scenery outside the window and smiled somewhat disappointedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>During her years abroad,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Andy truly felt that Great Xia was developing rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>the national strength of Great Xia was developing in an all-round way,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>but many people in Great Xia had not gotten rid of that impoverished image.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even if they were wealthy, even if they were splashing gold as they walked,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>they were all upstart images that could not be described.\u003C\u002Fp>",1143,"2026-06-16T19:41:50.019Z","2026-06-17T08:56:24.023Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash
