"Ma Xiumin, you ungrateful bastard! You have not even paid the training fee back to us and you were thinking of fleeing after getting money from Cao Yuqin?" an executive from his company, STG & Brothers, Inc. slapped him right in the meeting room.
"Sir, I apologize, I had no such intention," Ma Xiumin cried. He had already been beaten black and blue by the police. Prostitution was illegal in China and as such, he was asked to provide all the contacts in his circle. This was a big bust, but he could not put everyone under the bus, especially since his company had relations with the underworld. They were the ones who hooked him up with those channels.
The philosophy at STG was simple, keep the artists happy, they would keep you happy. And it was also a front for underworld activities, thus drugs and prostitution were rampant. If he were to open his mouth, the whole company would be destroyed.
