Chapter 1217: The Dragon Crosses the River

Li Mu refused without hesitation, so that Paul Keane finally realized that he was in big trouble this time.

As early as when he was pretending to be forced with Li Mu, Li Mu gave him a hint that with Paul Keane's strength, he was not qualified to pretend to be forced in front of Li Mu at all, and there was more than one level difference between him and Li Mu, but he wanted to pretend to be forced, but he didn't expect Li Mu to bring so much trouble to himself just by responding slightly.

Moreover, Paul Keane also realized that he really underestimated the temper of Li Mu, a young Chinese man, because he had a high social status in the United States, so the Chinese people he came into contact with were too humble, too easy-going, and so easy-going that people thought they had no temper, but after pretending to be forced by Li Mu, he realized that Li Mu was completely different from the Chinese people he came into contact with, Li Mu was a militant like a honey badger, and whoever provoked him, he would definitely bite his tongue and not let go.

Paul Keane knew that Li Mu couldn't solve it, so he hurriedly began to prepare to deal with it, how could the perfect image he had worked hard for his son for more than ten years withstand such a large-scale bombardment of public opinion, this is simply like a nuclear bomb, not only has a huge instantaneous strike power, but also leaves a radiation impact that is almost permanently unremoval.

If you don't think of a way to stop the spread and fermentation of public opinion, the name James Keane will soon become a bad street in the United States, and once his reputation collapses, then he will be completely out of the heir.

The first thing Paul Keane did was to call all the media leaders related to the family, telling them not to publish any relevant news, and to be ready to help him fight back at any time.

However, every media outlet related to the Keane family maintains the same tone: for the time being, they can not publish any relevant news, but this timeliness is very short, and it is not even possible to do 24 hours, and if necessary, they will publish relevant news directly.

As for the request to help him fight a counterattack of public opinion, all the media have clearly refused, and no one is willing to go against Li Mu and the entire American society and mainstream media for him, and not expressing their stance for the time being is already the limit of what they can do.

Paul Keane worked anxiously for a night, making countless phone calls, but he failed to solve any substantive problems at all, the spread speed of public opinion has not weakened, James Keane's infamy is increasing, public opinion continues to ferment, and the unstoppable situation is like a speeding heavy-duty train.

After suffering all night, Paul Keane didn't dare to let public opinion continue to develop like this, so he could only choose to ask the family for help.

However, it is not so easy to ask for help from the family.

Although Li Mu's appearance was like a powerful computer virus that invaded the Kean family's century-old system, it did not make the entire Kean family enter a state of emergency to defend against foreign enemies.

This system did not resist the invasion of external viruses as set by the founders, but gave birth to two completely different response strategies within it when external enemies invaded.

One coping strategy is based on Paul Keane, hoping that the entire Keane family can work together to help James deal with this crisis;

Another coping strategy is to focus on the eldest Todd and the third Edward, hoping to replace James from the core successor position through this invasion of Li Mu;

People are such a group, even if there is only one person, there are multiple thoughts entangled and attacking each other in the depths of their hearts, not to mention a group of more than one person, and the possibility of wanting to achieve the same hatred of everyone is almost zero.

When Todd received a call from Paul for help, he only left him with one sentence: "Within 24 hours, if you can't handle this, the family will take care of you!"

Paul knows his brother very well, standard people don't talk much, if he says 24 hours, then he must only have 24 hours, if he says that the family will handle himself, then his fate must be ugly.

Paul understood that this crisis was on his own.

So, in a hurry, he immediately found an old friend who was very good at media public relations and asked him to help write a weighty article as soon as possible to refute Li Mu's content, and then he would use his family's media resources to launch a counterattack against Li Mu.

The other party already knew the ins and outs of the matter, and only asked Paul Keane: "What do I use to refute Li Mu's accusations? James's attempt to control 3321, as well as your blocking of Li Mu's special plane and threats to Li Mu, are all facts, if you want to fight back against him, you must have enough supporting arguments, otherwise this weak refutation will only get darker and darker." ”

Paul Keane was also confused all of a sudden.

So what refutes Li Mu's article?

Saying that he lied, framed, and spewed blood? But he doesn't have any evidence to support this argument.

Then change the routine, defend his son, saying that he did not try to control 3321 as Li Mu said, and make a name for it.

If it can't be refuted, then it can only be explained.

So Paul Keane came up with his solution, saying, "Our whole argument is to convince everyone that this is just a misunderstanding!"

The logic of the other party's thinking seems to be stricter than Paul's, he thought about it for a while, and said seriously: "Paul, this will be a contradiction." ”

"What is the contradiction?" Paul Keane said in surprise: "Let's just say that Li Mu misunderstood, James is not what he imagined, the reason why James attaches too much importance to 3321 is just because he hopes too much to make some contributions to the students of the United States through the 3321 American station!"

The other party smiled helplessly and said, "Paul, you and I are good friends, and I will say some things directly." ”

"Just say it. ”

The other party paused, and then said seriously: "You still want to kill two birds with one stone at this time, not only to clear your son's responsibility, but also to re-establish a positive image for your son, not to mention whether the people will accept it, your approach must be a second provocation in Li Mu's eyes, do you know how he will fight back against you at that time?"

Paul Keane was speechless for a while, and the other party said very solemnly: "Paul, you must first distinguish the current situation, now it is Li Mu who is launching an attack, what you have to do now is by no means to resist and counterattack, because you are not Li Mu's opponent at all, Li Mu's ability to put on the table is not comparable to few people in the United States, I believe that by the time of next year's presidential election, Li Mu will become the object of competition between the two major parties, with such a person, how can you fight back? What to fight back?"

This remark made Paul Keane shudder.

Only then did he realize that he had been underestimating Li Mu's strength and influence, and it was only when he was about to go into battle to fight that he realized how powerful the other party was, so strong that he had no way to fight back.

At this time, the other party said another sentence, which made Paul Keane fall into an ice cellar.

"Paul, there is one more thing you don't forget, when you stopped Li Mu's plane, you brought a senator, but Li Mu didn't say a word about the senator, it can be seen that Li Mu is extremely smart and has a very accurate judgment of the situation, he only wants to target you now, and at the same time he doesn't want to touch the American political arena, so he didn't mention the senator, if you provoke him further, he will definitely expose the senator's affairs, if you let the people of the United States know that you can manipulate the senator to stand for you, at that time, I'm afraid this Keane family will be dragged into the abyss by you!”

Senator......

As soon as he thought of this, Paul Keane's back was instantly soaked in cold sweat.

At this time, he realized how stupid he was, in order to pretend to be forced in front of Li Mu, he took the senator to stop Li Mu's plane, the American people are extremely sensitive to the use of public power, if Li Mu really exposes this matter, not only will he be finished, but the Keane family will also be finished.

In an instant, Paul Keane completely gave up the idea of confronting Li Mu head-on, and said in fear: "Then this is absolutely undesirable, or let's change to a softer way, don't confront Li Mu, just explain, let's just say that James doesn't actually have such intentions, it's just some kind of misunderstanding, so it's okay, right?"

The other party sighed and said: "Paul, your statement is illogical, the people will not accept it, what you have to do now is not just to defend James, but to make the people believe what you say, otherwise everything is counterproductive." ”

Paul Keane said, "Just to explain that it was a misunderstanding, is there anything wrong with that?"

"Of course there is a problem!" The other party said seriously: "Because if according to normal logic, assuming that his son really didn't have a crooked mind about 3321, then even if he was kicked out of this project by Li Mu, there was no need for him to go to his heart, since his son would not go to his heart, then this matter should have been terminated long ago after Li Mu kicked him out of 3321, so how can you explain your motive for stopping Li Mu's plane later? Isn't this a contradiction?"

"I ......" Paul Keane realized that going to stop Li Mu's plane by himself was simply the stupidest thing he had ever done in such a big life.

At present, all possibilities are blocked, and there is still a nuclear bomb that may explode at any time hidden in the middle, Paul Keane suddenly ran out of ideas, he had to ask the other party: "Johnson, do you have any good ideas or suggestions?"

The other party thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, there is only one solution to this matter, that is, you and your son can only keep one, and the remaining one must stand up and admit all Li Mu's accusations, and to be honest, you and your son are the most suitable to stand up and bear everything." ”

Paul Keane subconsciously asked, "Why?"

The other party said: "Because you were the one who escalated the incident, Li Mu kicked James out of 3321, and James himself did not make any response, which is more beneficial to James, and you stopped Li Mu's plane and threatened Li Mu, this fact cannot be denied, so the best solution to this matter is for you to stand up and admit your mistake and apologize, and then use the 'misunderstanding' rhetoric to excuse James." ”

Paul Keane's intestines twitched, he thought he was bullying a foreigner who had no foundation in the United States, but he didn't expect that he was a raptor crossing the river, and he was still strong when he crossed the ocean, so he really wanted to pretend to be on his knees......
