I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 613 - 611: I’ll Be the Discipline Inspection Commission of the Entertainment Circle
"Chen Bingning, crying won't solve any problems. You are Yiyi's friend, and I will handle this matter to the end!" Zhang Menglong walked over to Chen Bingning and said.
Chen Bingning stopped sobbing. Indeed, many people become very desperate in such situations, especially if the opposing party is from a powerful and influential family, pursuing the matter might still end up unresolved.
But she was different, she had a good friend whose boyfriend was one of the richest people in the world. Perhaps, in his view, there was nothing in the world he couldn't handle. Compared to those people, she was already very lucky.
"I just want to ask you one thing, and I respect your decision. If you want to settle this privately, just name a price, and I'll make sure you get it. If you want to pursue it further, I'll make sure he ends up in jail. Also, rest assured, I will not let any information about you be leaked."
The whole room suddenly fell silent. Hu Bufan was also waiting for Chen Bingning's response, knowing all too well how formidable Zhang Menglong could be. Until now, no one had ever managed to best him. If he chose to settle privately, as long as the amount wasn't absurd, he'd rather pay off the trouble.
If Zhang Menglong truly wanted to take it as far as he had indicated, Hu Bufan would have to take some other measures. No matter how powerful Zhang Menglong was, he definitely wasn't going to surrender without a fight!
He had over fifty million fans, and his influence domestically was extremely terrifying. If anyone tried to smear his reputation, even with the truth, his fans would aggressively retaliate unless there was solid proof.
But this time, all the information had been cleaned up by Zhang Menglong himself, making it impossible to gather any evidence, so where would the solid proof come from?
As for other victims, he of course believed that Zhang Menglong was capable of finding each of them, but most of the traces had already been cleaned up; those willing to testify would probably be few and far between.
Furthermore, considering Zhang Menglong's character, he would likely prefer not to expose those girls to social and media harm.
So, even if Zhang Menglong wanted to take it to the end, Hu Bufan might not necessarily lose. In fact, if Zhang Menglong couldn't produce evidence, it might even cause him much trouble.
A few minutes later, Chen Bingning's voice was heard, "I want to pursue this to the end. I believe there are definitely more than one or two people who have been harmed by him. I hope such a person will lose the ability to harm others forever."

"If that's the case, why not just castrate him?" Zhang Menglong revealed a fierce smile.
"Boss, what does 'castrate' mean?" a security guard asked.
"It's like neutering, usually something done to cats and dogs to eliminate their fertility," the head of security murmured softly.
"Comparing to cats and dogs, Mr. Zhang is really something!"
...
"Did you hear that?" Zhang Menglong looked back at Hu Bufan, "It's still the same condition, admit everything you have done, announce your withdrawal from the industry, then turn yourself in, and be sentenced as the law dictates. I won't use any other means against you."
"Mr. Zhang, I..."
"No more nonsense, I'm giving you three days. If I don't see a statement from your studio within three days, I will handle it my own way."
"Yiyi, let's go." Having said that, Zhang Menglong took the three girls and left Hu Bufan's studio.
...
"Brother Zhou, what do you think about this?" After Zhang Menglong had left, Hu Bufan's complexion immediately darkened, his heart harboring a certain amount of fear towards Zhang Menglong.
Zhou Zong, full name Zhou Zong, was Hu Bufan's agent and assistant, and he was also his best accomplice in these shameless acts. Many girls were harmed, and he was closely involved, even once participated in group activities with him—their relationship was closer than brothers.
"Bufan, we might be in big trouble," Zhou Zong's face also looked terrible, "You know who Zhang Menglong is, what he does is never just talk. If we don't do something to satisfy him in three days, his earlier words were definitely not just to scare us."
"Do I really have to quit and confess?" Having achieved fame young and amassing millions of fans, if one day he found himself notorious and left with nothing, Hu Bufan would absolutely not be able to accept it.
"Of course not," Zhou Zong said, "But we must do something even if Zhang Menglong uses his influence to attack you later. We will have enough capacity to fight back."
"How so?"
"Strengthen your public persona!" Zhou Zong said, "The gentleman persona you've built before needs to be further reinforced. Isn't there a charity gala soon? There will also be a red carpet event, and almost half of the entertainment industry's female stars will be attending. At that time, act more gentlemanly, donate a bit more."
"I understand!" Hu Bufan grasped the meaning from Zhou Zong. As long as he maintained his current persona unyieldingly, even if Zhang Menglong hammered at him, as long as there was no solid evidence, he wouldn't be easily brought down.
You say Hu Bufan is a scumbag messing with male and female relations? Didn't you see him maintaining a very gentlemanly distance from so many female stars, and even necessary physical contact was conducted in a gentlemanly manner? Without evidence, your accusations are mere slander!
This was exactly the effect they wanted!
With such an incident occurring, the mood at the birthday party naturally could not continue. Zhang Menglong sent Chen Bingning home, Sun Ruowen stayed to look after her, and Zhang Menglong went straight home with Lu Yi Yao.
All along the way, Zhang Menglong's face was gloomy, "A good birthday turned out like this, sigh."
"Menglong, why are there so many people like this in the world?"
"Perhaps it's just human nature," Zhang Menglong shook his head, "The more a person lacks something, the more they become obsessed with it. That Hu seems to need this kind of way to satisfy his perverted heart.
"I didn't used to like Wang Ling that much, but now, by comparison, I think he has grown on me a lot," Lu Yi Yao said.
"Yes," Zhang Menglong nodded, "Wang Ling, although his romantic life is a bit all over the place, at least every time he falls in love, he is serious about it, willing to spend money, and does it through legitimate means. It's just that he changes girlfriends frequently, but at least it's all above board."
"But some people are rather sinister, with mean methods. The kind of people I despise most in life," Zhang Menglong spoke more and more angrily, "A Californian living off our Huaxia and mistreating Huaxia's girls, and yet he's supported by a bunch of mindless fans. It's truly ridiculous."
"That's how the entertainment industry is; what you see is mostly what they want you to see. How many more like Hu Bufan are there in the entire industry?"
"Wang Ling used to act like the disciplinary inspector of the entertainment circle; looks like I'll have to take on this role now," Zhang Menglong said, "I'll make sure to bring this issue to a resolution."
...
The three days passed quickly, and just like Hu Bufan had designed, at the charity gala, he donated five million directly under his own name to the regions affected by the flood.
During the red carpet walk, he consistently maintained a very good distance from the female stars, and he also managed to dodge some physical contacts very cleverly.
His studio immediately bought him a trending spot, with headlines like "Hu Bufan's Gentleman's Hand" and "Hu's Gentleman Touch" filling up the whole Weibo.
His fans were also madly supporting him, praising his behavior, and his popularity surged crazily once again within two or three days.
