Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 544 - 543 Director Fang Good Evening
"Station Head Guo, don't be angry. Young people can sometimes be impulsive. We will definitely handle them properly, no indulgence allowed!" The other station leaders, watching Wu Longcai and his two companions actually walk away, were somewhat dumbfounded. It was not until Station Head Guo shook with rage that they came back to their senses, each offering a bitter smile while trying to console him. They had already silently cursed Wu Longcai for being foolish. Was this the time to act on impulse? It was simply self-destructive.
Given the situation had escalated to this extent, even though they appreciated Wu Longcai's talent and the hosting abilities of Wu Shiyi and Liu Manman, it was no longer appropriate for them to speak in their defense.
"Disregard for leadership! Arrogance due to talent! Lack of organization and discipline—such people must be dealt with seriously!" Seeing that the other station leaders stood by his side, Station Head Guo's anger subsided somewhat.
"However, with this development, the Happy Female Voice..." The deputy station head in charge of entertainment hesitated, unable to bear seeing Happy Female Voice fail, as Station Head Guo's expression eased a bit.
"With so many talents at our provincial station, are we really incapable of producing an entertainment show without Wu Longcai? As for the hosts, that's even simpler—Xiao Shanshan, Dong Qiantong, Zhou Xiaoping, and others, aren't they just as good as Wu Shiyi and the rest?" Station Head Guo said with a stern face.
"That's true, that's true." Seeing Station Head Guo speaking like this, the deputy station head could only nod in agreement with a bitter smile. However, internally, he couldn't help but blame Station Head Guo. If it weren't for Station Head Guo's insistence on promoting Xiao Shanshan and even using the funds to control Happy Female Voice, perhaps Wu Longcai and the others wouldn't have been dissatisfied and rebelled, and this evening's incident wouldn't have occurred.
After all, from the very beginning of planning the show and even securing the sponsorship advertising, it was Wu Longcai who had brought these aspects together. One could say that Happy Female Voice managed to become successful and also brought so much revenue and fame to the station primarily thanks to Wu Longcai. But now, in only its second season, Station Head Guo wanted to make cuts from his people, showing no respect for his opinions. It was simply outrageous, and the deputy station head had always held this view. But since Station Head Guo held the official authority and he was merely his deputy, there was nothing he could do.
Now that matters had escalated to this stage, it was too late to say anything. As for the issue with Xiao Shanshan, even though everyone was well aware of it, it was absolutely not something to be discussed openly.
"Minister Hao, Director Fang's cars have arrived." Just as the deputy station head was inwardly criticising, another deputy station head spoke up.
The crowd immediately moved towards the entrance.
They saw three Audi cars parked at the entrance of the lobby.
By this time, Station Head Guo, who had lost the gloom and anger on his face, was now all smiles as he quickly stepped forward to open the door of the first car.
"Leader Hao, Director Fang, good evening!" After opening the door, Station Head Guo's smile grew even brighter, and his beer belly shrank back as he bent down.
Following Station Head Guo opening the car door personally, the first person to step out from the back seat was a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, whose demeanor was both scholarly and composed, subtly exuding a hint of authority.
This person was none other than Leader Hao from the Jiangnan Province Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department.
The next person to step out was a clean-shaven middle-aged man with a similarly scholarly aura. This middle-aged man was none other than Elder Feng's son-in-law who held a director position at the Broadcasting and Television Bureau under Elder Feng's influence, and he was also the leader sent by the Broadcasting and Television Bureau to inspect operations, as mentioned by Station Head Guo.
In Huaxia Country, all state-owned media are generally managed by propaganda departments at various levels. Jiangnan Province TV Station and its superior department, the Broadcasting and Television Bureau, were no exceptions.
He had come especially tonight to attend a welcome banquet, not only because Director Fang was a director at the Broadcasting and Television Bureau but also because he was Elder Feng's son-in-law. His dual identity made his presence extraordinary; even Minister Hao, notwithstanding his high rank as a provincial leader in charge of the Broadcasting and Television Bureau, had made it a point to come.
For Station Head Guo, while he was a leader in front of people like Wu Longcai, capable of determining their career paths, he was considerably junior in front of Minister Hao, seeing that he was merely equivalent to the level of a deputy director at the provincial station.
Minister Hao merely gave Station Head Guo a light handshake with an indifferent expression, then turned with a smile to Director Fang at his side and said, "Director Fang, you should know everyone from Station Head Guo's team. Let's not introduce one by one; we will talk more inside."
"Okay, I'll follow Minister Hao's arrangement," Director Fang replied.

Minister Hao smiled, and at this moment, people from the other two cars also stepped out, including Director Qiu from the Jiangnan Province Broadcasting and Television Bureau and others from the Broadcasting and Television Bureau, among them a young woman who was Director Fang's daughter, Fang Wanyue.
Fang Wanyue and Jiang Lili were schoolmates, both having studied at Yanjing Media College. However, Jiang Lili was a junior this year, while she was in her final year of college.
Originally, Director Fang had wanted to arrange for Fang Wanyue to intern at CCTV or the Capital TV Station, but Fang Wanyue, known for her quirky and somewhat rebellious personality among the younger members of the Feng Family, refused to follow Director Fang's plan. She insisted on interning at a local station, believing it would prevent others from thinking she was relying on her parents' connections.
Director Fang had only one daughter and couldn't resist her wishes, so he let her have her way. This trip to Jiangnan Province was also an opportunity to bring her along to see if she liked Jiangnan and wanted to stay for an internship at the Jiangnan Province TV Station.
One reason Director Fang chose Jiangnan Province was because of Sang Yunlong's presence there; Sang Yunlong was an old subordinate of Elder Feng, personally promoted by him, and was considered part of the Feng faction. If there were any problems, he would have support; secondly, Ge Dongxu was also in Jiangnan Province. If Fang Wanyue interned in Jiangnan Province, she could potentially build a good relationship with him.
Others might not be aware of how formidable Ge Dongxu was, but Director Fang, as Elder Feng's son-in-law, was privy to some insider information. Even just the current position and status of Ge Dongxu were something even Director Fang had to look up to, and considering that Ge Dongxu was not yet twenty, his future achievements were bound to be extraordinary. Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, whether it was because of his relationship with Elder Feng or the individual capabilities of Ge Dongxu, Director Fang hoped that Fang Wanyue could have more interactions with such an exceptionally distinguished individual like Ge Dongxu and build good relationships.
The group entered the lobby and, led by the General Manager of Wanghu Hotel himself, arrived at a scenic luxury private room.
Inside the private room, a large dining table set for twenty people was arranged.
Minister Hao took the seat of honor, Director Fang took the seat for the distinguished guest, and the rest of the attendees took their seats in an orderly manner according to their official ranks.
Since Director Fang had brought his daughter, Station Head Guo thought it inappropriate for Xiao Shanshan and the others to sit next to Director Fang and Minister Hao. Instead, he arranged for them to sit at the lower end of the table with Fang Wanyue.
