Chapter 1290: Press Conference!
At Huacheng Baiyun International Airport, 35-year-old Robert Lee came to the pick-up hall with a cart of luggage.
In his mind, China should be a poor, backward, closed and ignorant country, but looking around, the majestic and luxurious high-rise buildings around him made him feel that he had come to the wrong place, this is not the flower city of Chinese mainland, but the Xiangjiang of the capitalist world.
But the Chinese and English signs hanging everywhere at the airport "Hua Cheng Huacheng" reminded him that this was indeed the inland city of socialist China!
"Perhaps, this is a false image of prosperity deliberately created by the Chinese who love face, the Chinese are famous for fraud, since even Lin Cheng, the richest man in the world, is fake, presumably it is not difficult for them to make the surrounding environment around the airport more prosperous."
Behind these prosperous high-rise buildings, like the slums of Brazil and Mexico, most of the Chinese live without food and clothing.
Yes, it must be so!"
So, with such comfort, Robert Lee turned a blind eye to all the prosperity around him, and instead showed a contemptuous smile.
"Hi! Mr. Robert Lee! I'm MacDonald, the head of the newspaper's Xiangjiang branch, and the head office called me to pick you up!" In the dense crowd of pick-up, MacDonald saw at a glance Robert Lee, who was obviously taller than the Chinese, and called out loudly.
Robert Lee was naturally very happy when he saw that someone was coming to pick him up, and pushed the luggage cart to MacDonald's side, only to find that behind MacDonald, there was a group of yellow-skinned and black-haired Chinese who were looking at him with reverence.
"Hey, hello MacDonald, who are these people in the back?" said Robert Lee curiously.
MacDonald said proudly: "Robert Lee, let me tell you a good news, you are on fire in China, since your article questioning Lin Cheng in the Wall Street Journal was reprinted by the Chinese media, it has been adored by a large number of Chinese.
When they heard that you were coming to China, they feared that you would be persecuted by the Chinese government and Lin Cheng, so they spontaneously gathered together and said that they wanted to defend your personal safety with their lives. ”
That's right!
This is his correct impression of China! What luxury airport? What high-rise buildings? All are illusions! Only the Chinese who nod their heads and stammer with each other when they see us foreigners are real and conform to his imagination of China.
Looking at the Chinese behind MacDonald who cast the most kind eyes on him, Robert Lee saw that the depression on the prosperous side of China's cities was finally swept away, and he felt that the whole world had returned to normal, and everything before was like a dream.
In the crowd, a man in his thirties came out of the crowd, first bowed deeply to Robert Li, and then said in a tone of great reverence: "Mr. Robert Li, I am Mai Licheng, the editor of the Southern Huadu Daily, and welcome to China.
You have traveled thousands of miles to China to fight counterfeiting and expose Lin Cheng's false mask for the sake of our calamity-plagued Chinese people, although we Chinese are generally of low quality and ignorance, but there are still a group of people of insight who exist.
I assure you that during your stay in China, we will definitely defend your personal safety with our lives, and we will never let China's powerful forces do all kinds of evil to hurt you, so that you can have a good memory in China. ”
Although Robert Lee is also a social elite in the United States, it is the first time that he has been admired by so many people, and he thinks that he enjoys privileged treatment in China, and maybe he can come to China several more times in the future to educate the ignorant people of China and make them realize the value of freedom in cooking.
However, in front of the Chinese, the foreign adults must be held up, and they cannot be too approachable, otherwise they will not be able to suppress the Chinese without majesty.
So Robert Li just nodded indifferently at Mai Licheng and said, "Very good, then I'll trouble you, and by the way, you can introduce me to Lin Cheng's situation again." ”
Although Robert Lee only nodded slightly, but in the eyes of Mai Licheng and other Mu Yang dogs, it was the approachable performance of the foreign adult, Mai Licheng nodded and said flatteringly: "Okay Mr. Robert Li, I am happy to serve you......"
……
On June 28, at the press conference on the second floor of the Lin headquarters building, Lin Cheng was preparing to hold a press conference to announce the Lin Group's slimming decision to the outside world.
After a month of brewing, the hugely bloated Lin Group officially started the slimming work, and many companies labeled with the Lin label have completed the name change registration, such as Lin's Education Group changed its name to Fangfei Education Group, and Lin's Heavy Industry changed its name to Hantang Heavy Industry.
However, the name change is only the beginning, this time the Lin Group slimmed down, there will be 298 companies out of the arms of the Lin Group, and the controlling party of these 298 companies will also be changed from the Lin Group Corporation to a variety of hidden holding companies controlled by Lin Cheng, the shares are more dispersed, and the shareholders are more mysterious.
For the divestment of these 298 companies, Lin Cheng originally planned to carry out quietly, but Fang Dehua and other executives objected, they believed that since the main shareholders of these companies have changed and officially separated from the Lin Group, they should be widely publicized to the outside world, otherwise in the future, if these companies have accidents, the people will still settle the accounts on the Lin Group.
So Lin Cheng was as good as a stream, accepted everyone's opinions, and held today's press conference.
However, in the eyes of the outside world, the purpose of this press conference held by Lin Cheng is very intriguing.
Recently, as Robert Lee went deep into Qingjiang to investigate the Lin Group, the Wall Street Journal published articles questioning Lin Cheng one after another, and the domestic media was also very keen to reprint Robert Lee's articles.
After all, the newspaper can add parentheses at the end of the article: this article only represents the author's position and has nothing to do with the newspaper. In this way, they can shirk the responsibility of smearing Lin Cheng, even if Lin Cheng is mad, they can't help them.
Today's press conference was considered by most people to be Lin Cheng's response to the Wall Street Journal's questioning of his unworthiness to be on the Forbes list of the world's richest people, so reporters from home and abroad poured into the press conference hall of Lin's headquarters building, which was overcrowded.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, when Lin Cheng led a group of senior executives of the Lin family into the press conference site, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw that the scene was crowded with hundreds of domestic and foreign reporters: Why are so many reporters here today? And a large part of them are foreigners?
When the reporters in the audience saw Lin Cheng coming in, they also began to discuss: "How does Lin Cheng respond to the questioning of the Wall Street Journal? Will he sue Robert Lee, who questioned him, for defamation?"
"Probably not, according to Robert Lee's investigation, Lin Cheng did acquire a large number of local state-owned enterprises in Qingjiang at the beginning of his career, and there is a saying of 'Lin Bancheng' in Qingjiang, and his doubts are not groundless. ”
"Yes, it just so happens that Robert Lee is also here today, and there is a good show to watch now, let's wait and see!" (https:)
