Chapter 425: Too Arrogant
Just as Gu Weiwei had expected, after ending the contract with MG as the spokesperson of the Asian district, Ling Yan went to the headquarters of Muse in Paris and was accompanied by Kuroda Shio.
After receiving the notification, Merlin Kanil did not invite the visitors into his office.
Instead, he stayed in the office until he had finished his work and packed up his things, ready to go home.
“Merlin, Mr. Kuroda is still waiting for you.”
Hearing the words, Merlin checked the time and said, “Let him in.”
Two minutes later, Kuroda Shio and Ling Yan were guided into the meeting room by the secretary.
“Hi, Merlin Kanil, my name is Kuroda Shio.”
Kuroda Shio said his own name and gave the business card to him with both hands.
Merlin glanced at the business card and said straightforwardly, “Just say what you want to say, I am on my way out to have dinner.”
“I heard that Muse is looking for a spokesperson. We hope that Ms. Ling Yan can be the one.” Kuroda Shio said.
“Ling Yan?” Kanil frowned and asked, “Who is that?”
Ling Yan, who came in with Kuroda Shio, looked embarrassed but still showed a smile.
“Mr. Kanil, we met in Milan a few days ago.”
Merlin Kanil looked at Ling Yan and thought for a while. He did remember seeing this woman at Martin’s studio.
“Ms. Ling Yan is the lead actress of Dream of a Long Life and has won dozens of international film awards, she is the most suitable spokesperson for Muse.”
Merlin glanced at the beautifully-dressed woman and snorted.
“Sorry, I don’t need this kind of spokesperson.”
“Mr. Kanil, Gu’s Enterprise expects to cooperate with you.” Kuroda Shio said with a serious face.
He might not have put it forward plainly, but he was actually saying that Gu Siting also wanted him to use Ling Yan as the spokesperson.
Merlin Kanil sneered. “It seems that hideous women are confident enough to be the spokesperson of Muse?”
Hideous women?!
Hearing that someone was referring to her in this way, Ling Yan turned pale.
Kuroda Shio said, “Mr. Kanil, watch your words!”
“You are here begging me, in my place, and still asking me to watch my words?” Merlin sneered.
“Mr. Kanil, we are very sincere in cooperating with you.” Kuroda Shio said and placed a pile of files onto the table from the briefcase.
Merlin glanced at the files and had no interest in picking them up.
“I think I am very clear about what I am saying – you are not qualified to be the spokesperson of Muse!”
All these years, there had been numerous people who had tried to become the spokesperson in exchange for something.
But he did not lack money and what he needed was a spokesperson, who could perfectly express his works.
He could be short of a spokesperson for one year… Or even five years.
But what he could not stand was randomly finding someone to represent his work.
Ling Yan gritted her teeth. So she was not qualified? But yet he had run all the way to Milan just to meet Mu Weiwei, a newbie who couldn’t possibly be qualified, was that so?
She glanced at Kuroda Shio. If they ever failed to get this job, she would have to watch Mu Weiwei becoming the spokesperson of MG Globe.
“Mr. Kanil, don’t be so absolute, or trouble may come your way.” Kuroda Shio warned with a serious tone.
With one hand against his forehead, Merlin sneered.
“Prime Minister Franks has just hired me to design his anniversary present for his wife and Mr. Fu has just hired me to design for the future Mrs. Fu… I think that my clients would be very anxious, if I ever get into trouble.”
Who did this woman, who had not yet married into the Gu Family, think she was? How dare she try to get herself a position here, in his own territory?
