Chapter 551: Emergency Meeting
Chapter 551 Emergency Meeting
"Editor-in-Chief, the phone of Director Roman. In the office of Elsa of The Washington Times, the secretary knocked on the door and came in.
Elsa is an editor who has worked for the Washington Times for more than ten years, climbing from an obscure reporter to her current position, and can be said to be the most talented female editor in the company in recent times.
"Oh?" Elsa was stunned and looked up, "Director Roman's phone number?"
The secretary nodded, hesitated, and said, "Something seems to have happened." ”
"I see, you go down first. Elsa nodded, waited for the secretary to leave, and picked up the phone on the desk to dial.
The phone rang a few times and was answered, in exchange for a man's deep voice, "Elsa." ”
"Director Roman, are you looking for me?" Elsa said with a smile.
"The board of directors has received a whistleblower letter about your private dealings with the Ross editor-in-chief of American Today, and the board would like you to provide an explanation. Director Roman asked in a deep voice.
Elsa was completely stunned, and clenched the earpiece in a panic, "How could this happen?" ”
"The photos and some information of the report letter are very detailed, and if it is really slanderous, the board will give you justice. Director Roman hung up the phone.
The busy sound on the phone caused Elsa to collapse in her seat, her face pale and her fluttering eyes flashing with panic, and after a while she calmed down and took out her phone to dial a number.
It took three calls for the other party to get through.
"What's going on? We've been reported. Elsa shouted into her phone.
"Elsa, you calm down first, I have also received a report letter here. Rose on the other side said in a deep voice, "I'm discussing with Hoggts, and things seem to have gone awry. ”
"You promised me at the time. Elsa narrowed her eyes, and her voice became a little sharp, "If I lose my job for this, you will be responsible, otherwise, I don't mind if the fish dies." ”
"You calm down first, you stabilize on the board of directors first, your boss also intervened in this matter. Ross said, "I'll call you later." ”
Elsa threw her phone onto the couch and cursed.
The Washington Times, where Elsa works, is a long-established American imperialist newspaper, but it is also a newspaper with a strong political and religious character, although it has a small circulation, but it has a stable readership.
At the same time, working in this kind of newspaper, there is a lot of contact with the political circles, and the pressure is also very high, Elsa has a tendency to want to change jobs after serving as the editor-in-chief for two years, but because in the media industry, word of mouth is very important, and the professional ethics of a media person is the main source of her personal value, so she has been very cautious when choosing a new owner.
Among the many options, she is most optimistic about the development time period, but she has become one of the top three best-selling "American Empire Today" newspaper in the United States, and has also had a lot of contact with the editor-in-chief of their newspaper, Ross, and the relationship is not an ordinary friend, and she has also sold a lot of resources to each other in private.
Last week, Ross officially threw an olive branch to her, promising her a much richer salary than in the Washington Times, but the price was for her to help with some attacks and public opinion guidance against Wang Yao.
Elsa naturally readily agreed, firstly because this kind of thing is not taboo in the circle, and secondly, the Washington Times itself is a newspaper with a strong 'anti-China' tendency.
In the 'Yellow Peril Theory' and the 'China Threat Theory' propagated in recent years, they have always been the anti-China stronghold of the Western media, specializing in publishing negative news about China, and even fabricating and slandering them, not missing any opportunity to attack China.
Even in last year's 911, they spread rumors that the terrorist attack had something to do with the Dragon Kingdom, and that the Dragon Kingdom had provided support to them and other irresponsible remarks, which almost brewed a serious diplomatic storm.
So Elsa is just 'her job' to attack the Huaxia people, but she didn't expect this to happen.
A report on the Chinese people has attracted the attention of the high-level, so it can only show that in this time, there are more terrible people intervening, and Elsa, as the executor, has realized her consequences.
The same thing happened not only to Elsa of the "Washington Times", but also to the middle level of dozens of newspapers in the United States imperialism, which received investigation calls from the board of directors, and the top management also began to become panicked and held a temporary supreme meeting.
Therefore, the newspapers that participated in the attack on Wang Yao in the past few days are without exception.
The report letters they received were all 'criminal evidence' of middle- and high-level personnel, some of which were civil and some were professional.
People walk by the river, there is no wet shoes, these capitalists are burdened with a lot of negative news, but because they control public opinion and officials protect each other, they have nothing to fear.
And in this circle, everyone has their own little handle, and unless they encounter something big about life and death, they will not use this kind of 'self-destructing' attack method.
And these handle black materials are impossible for outsiders to grasp.
Once an outsider gets his hands on it, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The fact that so many high-level leaders of the mainstream media have collectively broken out a scandal is not only a matter of the press, but also a matter of the entire US imperialist public opinion, which directly affects the people's trust in the media of public opinion, which will cause huge panic and unpredictable consequences.
Especially in a democratic country like US imperialism, it can cause great panic.
Something of this level is no longer just the behavior of the media circles, and it has directly alarmed some relevant official departments.
U.S. Imperialist Propaganda Minister Carrot temporarily convened a meeting with the media involved, and at the same time issued an order to all newspapers that all the contents of the evening newspaper and tomorrow morning newspaper should be re-examined.
In a villa in New York, these media bigwigs were called together by Carrot, each with a gloomy face.
"Minister, we ask the FBI to intervene in the investigation, and the other party has seriously violated our personal safety. A newspaper director complained to Carrot.
"Investigate, investigate whom?" Carrot frowned at him, knocked on the table, and motioned for everyone to be quiet, "Who led the plan to suppress Wang Yao." ”
Everyone kept their mouths shut and looked around, and some of the directors who were not involved in the matter were gloating.
"At this point, there is no need to think about running away. Carrot frowned, "I don't know why I made this stupid decision, but someone has to be responsible." ”
After a commotion, a few people stood up.
Carrot glanced at these people, and together they could shake the public opinion of the entire US imperialism, but they didn't expect that they might be planted in the hands of an outsider today.
"There was no problem with the plan. CNN's Buchanan muffled.
"If it succeeds, it will be enough to make that Chinese monkey ruined and get out of the United States. ABC's Oz went on to say, "Minister, you should know what the impact will be if you are not on our side in this matter. ”
The remaining directors of the New York Times, the Washington Times, and several other mainstream newspapers also looked at Carrot meaningfully.
Carrot sneered, "Are you forcing the palace?"
"Is the minister still going to help an outsider?" said Oz with a frown.
"Could it be that I alone have the upper hand in this matter?" Carrot sneered, "Or are you all colluding and hoping that Wilson will take my place?"
Wilson, one of the candidates for the Propaganda Department.
Oz and the others were a little flustered: "What do you mean?"
"You haven't thought about how your black material leaked out?" asked Carrot.
"That's why I'm working with the FBI. Buchanan said.
The beads on Carrotmo's hand were silent, and neither did the others.
"Where's Claes?" Carrot suddenly realized, an important person was missing.
"Maybe it's a traffic jam. Oz looked at the time.
"Give him a call. Carrot frowned and said to the secretary beside him.
The secretary went to the corner to make a phone call, and came back a little later to report that "Mr. Claes said that he had more important matters and would not come." ”
"Hey, he's betrayed us!" a fat man got up and scolded after a moment's pause.
Carrot's pupils shrank suddenly, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.
..............
"Mr. Wang Yao, I regret what happened to your companion. Claes put down his phone and said to Wang Yao on the sofa.
Wang Yao smiled and flipped through the information in his hand, "Mr. Claes is in such a hurry to find me, is that what you mean?"
"Of course not. Chryce shook his head and said, "If there's anything you need help with, you can let me know." ”
"There's nothing to bother you with. Wang Yao smiled.
"You don't want to fight the entire media world on your own. Claes said, "I've heard that you have made a big fuss at the police station today and disrupted the administration of justice, and this kind of thing will be spurned anyway." ”
"I'm just defending myself. Wang Yao smiled, "Moreover, there are no eyewitnesses." ”
Claes was stunned, "I've heard that there are a lot of onlookers." ”
"Time Magazine also reported the entertainment gossip section?" said Wang Yao.
"It's already social journalism. Claes laughed, "Before, your coverage was all entertainment news, but now it's different." ”
"It seems that you are very skilled in this kind of thing. Wang Yao looked at him and smiled, "Ruining a person in this way is indeed crushing." ”
