Chapter 322: Press Conference (1)
The louder and louder voices outside meant that more and more people were coming, and Chang An sat alone in the small room backstage, as if in another closed world.
There were messages from Chang Jiahui on her mobile phone, as well as Chen Haodong's, who gave her encouragement and courage.
There were about ten minutes left before the start, and Zhou Wei finally called, dispensing with all politeness, he must have known her current situation very well.
Zhou Wei: "I know it's useless to persuade you now, so I'll just say a few words." ”
Chang An: "Hmm. ”
Zhou Wei: "You don't need to be too nervous, just follow the script given by Ye Li, the media who came here today all have cooperative relations with Rongbang, and Ye Li is quite familiar with them, so she won't embarrass you." ”
Chang An: "Okay. ”
Zhou Wei: "You don't have to think about what to say and what not to say, if you really say something wrong, you don't have pressure, really, you can't have any impact on me at all." ”
Chang An: "I know. ”
After that, there was silence, no one spoke, listening to each other's breathing.
After a while, Chang An spoke first: "You can watch it over there, right?"
Zhou Wei understood what she meant, and this press conference was broadcast live on the whole network.
Zhou Wei: "Will see!"
Chang An: "Then you should believe me." ”
Zhou Wei: "I believe in you. ”
Chang An laughed, "Listening to your tone of voice is more nervous than me, I don't feel your trust at all." ”
Zhou Yan held his forehead over there, and seemed to smile slightly, but it was a bitter smile.
He said that it was okay, it was okay, and the reporters invited were all his own people, but the ghost knows how difficult it is to really face it, no one can really fully predict the whole situation, and no one can guarantee that every reporter is obedient and sensible, Chang An has never had experience in facing the media before, but he didn't expect that the first time he stood in the spotlight was actually for this kind of thing.
How difficult it should be for her, Zhou Wei felt distressed when she thought about it, but he couldn't let her feel this kind of "distress", so he could only pretend that she was fine.
Zhou Wei pinched his eyebrows and said, "Mrs. Zhou, I really believe in you!"
Chang An smiled, and his eyes became firm, "Okay, Mr. Zhou, believe in me as much as I believe in you!"
In fact, when it comes to this kind of truth, all the verbal comfort is empty talk, and there is not much time, and someone comes in.
Ye Li saw Chang An on the phone, and asked with her mouth, "Is it okay?"
Chang An immediately greeted Zhou Wei here, "It's almost time, why don't you do this first?"
"Hmm. It was sullen late at night, but he didn't hang up the phone, and after two seconds, he said again: "I asked Ye Li to book you a ticket to London and fly tomorrow night, so no matter what the situation of this meeting is, you can go back to the UK for a few days after the meeting, and if I can spare time, I will go to the UK to find you." ”
Chang An was stunned, what kind of operation is this? She looked back at Ye Li, Ye Li didn't know why, she didn't understand the meaning in her eyes.
"Okay, I see, let's do it first!"
She hung up the phone, got up and asked Ye Li, "Zhou Wei asked you to book me a ticket back to the UK?"
Ye Li realized the look in her eyes just now, and immediately explained: "Yes, I received a call from him in the middle of the night last night, and he was afraid that the effect of this press conference would be counterproductive, and your situation would be even worse at that time, so he didn't want you to stay in China." ”
“……”
"At first, he asked me to book you a ticket to the United States, but it is also the center of the whirlpool, and the listing is imminent, and you will not let go of the media, so in the end, I think about it, I still want to go to the UK, you are familiar with it, and you can also meet friends, Mr. Zhou said so at the time. ”
Ye Li just relayed his meaning, and the implication was that no matter what the result of the press conference was, Chang An could change places after the end and avoid the limelight first.
Chang An knew that Zhou Wei was planning for her, but he was inevitably a little lost in his heart, look, he just didn't believe that she could handle these things alone.
"Mr. Zhou really cares about you, he said that the result of this meeting is not important, even if this matter really has any impact on the company's listing, he can find a way to make up for the loss later, but he doesn't want you to be hurt a second time, so..."Ye Li showed a somewhat embarrassed smile on her face, "Mrs. Zhou, do you know how much pressure I am under to hold this meeting? If you really suffer any grievances because of this, I guess I won't even be able to save my job." ”
The latter sentence seems to be a joke, but Ye Li's words are sincere, and in the tone of Zhou Xian's tone on the phone in the past two days, I am afraid that his wife will be a little wronged, and he can really kick himself out of the company when he turns around.
Chang An smiled, "No, I promise!"
At this time, the assistant pushed the door in, "Mr. Ye, it's almost, right?"
Ye Li looked at Chang An again: "Are you ready?"
"Hmm!"
The stylist came over to help Chang An tidy up her clothes and hair, she finally looked at herself in the glasses, with a plain white face, soft short hair, and the coat was taken off, leaving only a turtleneck knit sweater inside, milky white, loose and lazy fit, light blue jeans underneath, stepping on a pair of shallow flat-heeled leather shoes, and there was not even a piece of jewelry on her body, so she couldn't be more plain.
"Mr. Ye?" the assistant gave Ye Li a look.
Ye Li shook Chang An's hand, Chang An turned around, "Okay, let's go!"
Ye Li grabbed her, "You really don't need me to accompany you on stage?"
"No, I'm fine!"
Today, she must have the courage to face and bear the criticism of public opinion from the outside world alone.
Ye Li saw that her eyes were determined, her heart moved slightly, she was worried and nervous, but she was more moved and admired, admiring the seemingly thin woman in front of her, but there seemed to be huge energy in her body.
"Okay, then I'll sit in the audience, but if there is any problem in the middle, you give me a look, and I will meet the opportunity. ”
"Good!"
Ye Li finally shook Chang An's hand, "Let's go!"
The assistant had to play the role of emcee and play the role of the emcee throughout the press conference, so she walked in front and Chang An followed behind.
After passing through the small backstage dressing room, I could already hear the voices outside behind the door.
"You're going on stage, are you ready?"
Chang An finally adjusted his mood and nodded: "It's okay!"
"Then I'll open the door. ”
Then the assistant opened the door, and the boiling sound came like a tide, and the two went out one after the other.
"It's coming!"
"It's out, it's out!"
As the two walked into the venue, the discussion became a little quieter, and Chang An only heard the sound of flashing lights in his ears.
The assistant led her to the center of the stage.
The table was also specially arranged by Ye Li, with a simple table and sofa chairs, tea was also prepared on the table, and a fresh white rose was inserted in a delicate small porcelain bottle, in order to reconcile the whole atmosphere, so as not to make this meeting too rigid, and in order to be able to create a relaxed feeling as much as possible on such an occasion, use Chang'an to communicate.
From the proposal, preparation to the final appearance, Chang An is actually very grateful to Ye Li, because she can be seen everywhere for the thought she has spent for herself.
"Please be quiet. The assistant who played the role of emcee spoke, indicating that the meeting was about to begin, and the press gallery gradually fell silent.
After that, there was a simple opening remarks, starting with the assistant, and it was also a prepared manuscript in advance, she just memorized it and said it on the platform, and after finishing speaking, the assistant went down, leaving Chang An standing on the stage alone, her eyes swept down, the huge conference hall was full, and in the corner of the back row by the door, she seemed to see a few familiar faces.
Chang Jiahui, Gao Ming, Chen Haodong, and Wei Suying...
Chang An's breath leaked for a while, but he didn't expect them all to come, and he didn't say anything to her in advance, it was really too much, and several people sitting in the back corner were also looking at Chang An, although they were separated by a whole conference hall, but they seemed to be able to feel each other's emotions, especially Chang Jiahui, she also deliberately wore a very obvious orange sweatshirt today, stretched out her hand and suddenly made a fist at Chang An, which means "come on".
Chang An couldn't help but raise her lips and smile, she didn't go to the battlefield, and as soon as this smile came out, there was a series of flashing lights at the bottom, and she came back to her senses, this is a press conference, and the hundreds of media below are still waiting for her to start.
So Chang An silently took another breath and walked to the center of the stage, as soon as she moved, there were almost all grass and trees below, and Chang An bowed deeply to the media seat under the flashing lights that were frequently lit up in the room.
"Good afternoon, everyone, I'm Chang'an!"
It was a few simple words, and the sound was not loud, but through the microphone through the surrounding sound equipment, it finally echoed throughout the conference hall, and the timbre seemed quite stable.
Ye Li, who was sitting in the first row at the bottom, breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, she didn't seem to be so nervous.
The people on the stage continued: "Thank you for coming to today's press conference from your busy schedule, some of the news on the Internet in the past few days was originally just a personal matter, far from needing to be so exciting, but in order to avoid causing harm to the people around me, I still want to take this opportunity to explain it in person, and I also hope to be able to borrow the lens and pen of everyone here to convey what I said today and the facts stated to the public opinion fairly and objectively." ”
This is a statement prepared by Ye Li's team in advance, and it is used to introduce Chang'an to clarify the part.
Chang An paused when he said this, his eyes fell on the front row, and Ye Li reached out and secretly gave her a thumbs up, meaning that she was doing well, and she continued to keep it.
Below is the statement part. Chang An withdrew his gaze and continued to face the reporter.
"I must know the news about me on the Internet in the past few days, I was kidnapped three years ago and disappeared for three years, during this time I took drugs and rehabilitated drugs, including those photos and audio-visual videos that were exposed, I admit, most of them are facts!"
After saying that, the audience sighed, although he had said hello before, and knew that the things exposed on the Internet should be true, but he didn't listen to the person concerned admit it in person, and the impact was still different.
