Chapter 46: Is Your Life Only an Exclamation Point?

Owen knew what she wanted to ask, and she was referring to the news from the Galaxy Mall.

"Do you know Galaxy?" he asked.

Ivy blinked and thought for a few seconds, "I've heard that it's a well-known real estate company." ”

"Galaxy Mall is a shopping mall owned by Galaxy Group. Owen said unhurriedly.

"So what? What does it have to do with my news?" Ivy was confused, her eyes widening anxiously.

Time goes back to an hour ago.

Ivy was standing excitedly outside the studio, waiting to watch the news she had made. Owen stayed in the office and took the opportunity to open her office computer and plug in the USB flash drive with the hacking software that she had brought with her. After entering a series of instructions, he easily entered the database of the finance department.

Owen looked through the advertising revenue over the years to see if Huamei Gene had advertising dealings with TV stations, but the result was no. This kind of highly professional gene technology company must not need to spend money on publicity in the mass media.

In the list of advertisers, he unexpectedly found that Galaxy Group, the owner of Galaxy Mall, is a major customer of this station, and the annual advertising volume is not less than eight figures.

Today's hard work was in vain, and he had a hunch at the time.

Of course, I can't tell Ivy about hacking into the financial system of the TV station. He casually found an excuse, "I saw the Galaxy advertisement on TV. I guess Taili won't easily offend advertisers. ”

Ivy was stunned for a few seconds, then sighed in realization. Advertisers don't want to offend their advertisers and don't report negative news about them.

Without advertising, there is no revenue. When there is a contradiction between lofty journalistic ideals and vital interests, the leadership of the television station has no choice but to consider it as a whole.

She remembered Ms. Chen's angry and humiliated eyes, and her heart was very uncomfortable.

"So that's the case, and I promised Ms. Chen to help her get justice. Hey, it looks like we've had to break my promise. Ivy wept with a sad face, her voice a little hoarse.

"I originally thought so, but when I heard the conversation between Wu Youwei and Hu Ziyue, I found that things were not so simple. Owen shifted.

"Tell me what they said. Ivy straightened her back and looked at him expectantly.

Owen took a sip of champagne and recalled that wonderful conversation—

"Ziyue, thanks to you for informing me in time just now. Xu from Galaxy Group is always a good friend of mine, and he said that he will definitely invite you to dinner another day to express his gratitude."

"Mr. Xu is too polite, but it's just a gesture. ”

"How can you be polite, you have done them a great favor this time, Galaxy Group is planning to go public at the end of the year, and now at this time, it is best not to cause trouble. ”

"Then I might as well be respectful, I have long heard that Mr. Xu is young and promising, and he is a rare new force in the real estate industry. ”

"Hey, he's not relying on his father's protection. By the way, you two are the same age, so you can definitely talk. ”

Ivy listened to Owen's narration, stood up with her hands on the table, and said indignantly: "It turns out that Editor-in-Chief Wu is pretending to pass on the holy decree! I'll go back and tell Mr. Liu now!"

The men and women at the next table threw surprised glances at the two. Looking at Ivy's appearance, I thought it was an awkward quarrel between lovers.

"Sit down, is your life only an exclamation point?" Owen took a slow sip of champagne, his eyes full of certainty, "telling him won't do anything, it will work against you." ”

"Why? This is obviously the fault of Editor-in-Chief Wu, who is calling it a fake public and private servant. Ivy clenched her fists and pounded the table with impatience.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Owen's mouth, "Do you understand the rules of the rivers and lakes? How could Liu Jianyong blame his right-hand man for you, a little minion?"

Colleagues in Taiwan all know that Wu Youwei is an out-and-out official fan, who is sycophant to his superiors in every way and extremely harsh on his subordinates. He often uses the channel's resources to do favors, develop personal relationships, and pave the way for his career. But after all, he is Liu Jianyong's deputy, and has helped him share work and responsibilities for many years. Moreover, under his conscientious "operation", it is very likely that one day he will climb to the position of department director. Even Liu Jianyong was a little afraid of him.

"Then what should I do, I can't eat dumb losses in vain. Ivy leaned back in her chair, her eyebrows twisted together.

"Hello sir, is it okay to open red wine now?" a slender waiter interrupted the conversation as he pushed a delicate gilded food truck.

Owen nodded.

The waiter holds the wine bottle in both hands and asks the guest to confirm the winery and vintage. On the dining car was a brown wooden box with tools for opening wine bottles.

"Please try it. The waiter poured a little red wine into the goblet.

Owen grabbed the leg of the glass between his fingers and shook the glass. Under the soft light, the deep orange-red body exudes a jewel-like glow. He placed the glass to the tip of his nose, sniffed it, and then raised it and took a sip.

"Not bad. He smiled with satisfaction.

The waiter brought the first course, cheese with Spanish ham.

Owen slowly unfolded the napkin, folded it in half diagonally, and spread it on his thighs. He straightened up, slowly picked up his knife and fork, cut the food on the plate into neat pieces, and elegantly placed them in his mouth.

It's so hypocritical to eat a meal, despise you, Ivy looked at him with disgust. She grinned widely, picked up two large slices of ham, and stuffed them into her mouth.

"Wow, it's salty. She pursed her lips and grumbled with a frown.

Owen was amused by her, picked up the red wine glass and touched Ivy's glass, "Who made you eat so much in one bite?"

Ivy took a sip of red wine and finally swallowed the food in her mouth. Now she lost her appetite even more, she sighed, looked at the wine glass and muttered, "Why don't I talk to Sister Bing about this?"

"It's useless to talk to anyone, Galaxy Group is a big customer after all, even if it goes to the director, he will still consider the interests of the station first. So, the end result is still the same. Owen raised his eyebrows, his eyes shining sharply.

"It doesn't work, it doesn't work either. If you have the ability, you can find a way to come out. Ivy said through gritted teeth.
