ATV just made a move and caught Li Zhiying, who has always been tough, off guard, although Lin Xiaozhi regarded ATV as his trump card before this, but this trump card is so easy to use is still beyond his expectations.

Seeing that ATV's influence was beyond his expectations, Lin Xiaozhi immediately began a wider counterattack. And his second goal was naturally to choose Ming Pao Newspaper or its new boss - Yu Pinhai.

"A few days ago, some media in the industry broke the news that Yu Pinhai, the new boss of Ming Pao Newspaper Group, had a case record when he was studying in Canada in the past, and this station specially contacted the Canadian Consulate in Hong Kong to inquire about the matter, and has received confirmation from the Canadian police from the consulate. Canada admits that Yu Pinhai was convicted of theft, illegal theft of other people's credit cards involving an amount of about 4,600 Canadian dollars (about 34,000 Hong Kong dollars), and possession of firearms, and served four months in prison during his study in Canada......"

In the middle of the year, Yu Pinhai himself revealed to the outside world that he had been in contact with the mainland government to seek to open a television station in the mainland, and had reached a cooperation agreement with the Hubei provincial government, which was also recognized by the Hong Kong branch of the Xinhua News Agency. However, a wealthy man who cooperated with him revealed that since Pinhai reached an agreement with a local government in the mainland, there has been no action to purchase equipment or recruit personnel in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and even the four places in the mainland. According to our investigation, in the past six months, Yu Pinhai has used the gimmick of cooperating with the mainland to set up a TV station, not only tempted to raise nearly 100 million funds from many wealthy people in Hong Kong as a shareholder, but also actively contacted mainland banks and has obtained several bank loans through some channels. The investigation also showed that most of the funds were used to pay off bank loans he had raised for the acquisition of Ming Pao, with no money spent on the formation of the Wuhan Cable TV Network Company, except for a small part that went to his newly established company called 'HKNET'! ”

"What is even more intriguing is that we learned from the mainland side that when Pinhai first contacted the mainland, he promised to build a joint venture with Ming Pao Newspaper Group to build a television station with it, but so far no one in Ming Pao has heard of this. Not long ago, according to the share transfer agreement shown to this station by a shareholder of the future 'Wuhan Cable TV Network Company' contacted by Yu Pinhai, the TV station was classified under the name of a leather bag company called 'Ariva Investment Co., Ltd.', because the company's registered place is the Virgin Islands (a well-known offshore company registration place), except that the owner may be an Englishman named 'Leander Battle' (which may also be fake), we cannot get more detailed information. Combined with various circumstances, we specially inquired with several lawyers who are proficient in commercial law and learned that Yu Pinhai's investment in the mainland may be a commercial fraud! ”

At first, when "Cheng Pao" revealed that he had committed a crime in Canada and left a criminal record, Yu Pinhai made a mistake, that is, he chose to refuse to admit it. Originally, when he was young, he left a criminal record in Canada, and he was imprisoned for a few months, after all, it was more than ten years ago, if he chose to admit it at the beginning, even if he left a stain, he may be said to fall in the future, but with the success of his current career, a little good public relations can not be like Lin Xiaozhi in the past few years, get a reputation of 'prodigal son does not change money', and turn bad things into good things.

However, he is a proud person in Pinhaido, even if he knows that he has indeed committed crimes in the past, and he is not willing to leave a handle on people, I am afraid that he has secretly contacted the Canadian government, and is ready to 'legally' eliminate this case by donating a sum of money. Therefore, when he was exposed by Cheng Bao, he chose to categorically deny it.

But he didn't want to, Lin Xiaozhi made it clear that he wanted to kill him.

Cheng Pao Newspaper Group had previously waged war with the four major media at the same time, and the four of them were suppressed by the four of them in terms of circulation and influence. Therefore, although the same report was posted and some small-scale doubts were raised, it did not affect Yu Pinhai himself too much. But now that the opponent has been replaced by ATV, the situation is very different.

When it came to light that he had committed a crime in Canada and had been in prison for four months, Yu Pinhai quickly paid a heavy price for his previous refusal to postpone the discussion and then rely on 'public relations' for the Canadian government to destroy the criminal record. In particular, ATV found out that he was suspected of commercial fraud in the establishment of a TV station in cooperation with the mainland, which infinitely magnified the adverse impact of the matter. Other Hong Kong media outlets, who were well aware of 'falling into the ground' and 'keeping up with the trend', immediately followed up and made a big report, including the newspapers and periodicals of several newspaper group companies such as Oriental Press and Sing Tao Press.

"The former criminal has now become the new owner of Ming Pao, and Yu Pinhai, the new boss of Ming Pao, was imprisoned for crimes in Canada and left a criminal record!" ——Oriental Daily

"After less than a week, when Yu Pinhai faced the media siege again, he had to admit that he had stolen other people's checks and credit cards in Canada 12 years ago, involving a total amount of about 4,600 Canadian dollars, and possessed a pistol, and served four months in prison." ——Sing Tao Daily

"Ming Pao shares fell for two consecutive weeks, with a total decline of 37. 7%, if it weren't for the mysterious funds that ate a large number of shares on dips, I am afraid that the stock price of Ming Pao would have fallen below the one-yuan line! - Hong Kong Economic Journal

Mr. Zhou Nan, director of the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency, said in an interview with the media that the mainland ordered the Hubei government to strictly investigate the cooperation plan. He also said that if the ATV report is true, the mainland will immediately start to pursue responsibility, in addition to ordering Yu Pinhai to return and exchange bank loans, and even revoke the right to operate the local cable TV company he has obtained! - Ta Kung Pao

"Or under pressure from the mainland, it is reported that the Hong Kong government has ordered the Independent Commission Against Corruption to intervene in the investigation of the case, and some witnesses revealed that Yu Pinhai's car was seen parked in the parking lot of the Tung Cheong Building, where the ICAC headquarters is located, yesterday afternoon!" - South China Morning Post

ATV shot again, and it still rolled up countless storms and thunders, shaking all walks of life in Hong Kong. It also made Lin Xiaozhi and others realize once again how huge the influence of a TV station in Hong Kong is. If you really want to fight, even if the four major media giants join forces, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat ATV. After all, the influence of several media companies comes mostly from their publications, whether it is a newspaper or a magazine, it is affected by the time of publication, and there is still a lot of overlap in the readership. On the other hand, ATV is different, as long as there is a TV in Hong Kong, you can choose whether to watch the programs of the two free stations, 'TVB' or ATV. Most of the people who can buy newspapers and magazines are office workers, but the people who watch TV are men and women, young and old, and ATV's audience and coverage are much wider than those of the four major media.

And not long ago, ATV just moved Hong Kong with the acquisition of Lin Xiaozhi, a legendary businessman in Hong Kong. In addition, he has just acquired, and it has been revealed that he is at war with the four major media at the same time, and he can barely be regarded as the 'reasonable' side, so it has also attracted many Hong Kong citizens to actively lock in ATV these days and track the latest 'war reports' every day.

With the mutual benefit of both sides, the ratings have been rising steadily during this period of time, changing the decline of the past six months. Nowadays, if you talk about influence, I am afraid that there is only one brother of TV station in Hong Kong - wireless dares to say that it is overpowered.

However, will wireless make a move?

Not to mention that the old rival ATV has a new owner, and it is also an opponent who makes people feel toothache just by hearing the name, which is enough to entangle their top management. At this time, discerning people can see that in the face of the four major media, Lin Xiaozhi, as a big man in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, and holding the two major media of Chengbao and ATV, and his family background and industry are also immeasurable, has gradually begun to regain the disadvantage and gain the upper hand. Wireless intervenes at this time, if he pulls the bias frame to help the four major media, it is difficult to say whether he has more other back-ups. But even the impartial report, relying on the huge influence of wireless, is likely to help Lin Xiaozhi and help him beat the four major media faster. As for helping him, unless Shao Yifu and the high-level heads of wireless are all clamped by the door, it is impossible at all.

After all the math, they found that it was most appropriate for them to choose to sit on the sidelines during this period and not publish any news related to the event.

There was no wireless help on his side, and he saw two 'quasi-allies' fall one after another. Next Media's recent counterattack has become less and less reported, and Ming Pao is even more preoccupied because of the new boss, and has completely fallen into a disadvantage in the war of words with Lin Xiaozhi, and has no power to fight back.

Seeing that he might lose this 'war', Rao is the remaining Oriental Press and Sing Tao Press have big businesses, and they also panicked for a while, and began to think about how to solve or end this unfavorable situation.

At a critical time, Hu Xian was the most decisive, and she knew her own affairs, and she knew the real situation between herself and Sing Tao Newspaper Group very well.

As previously exposed in Cheng Pao, in recent years, she has withdrawn a large amount of funds and loans to enter the property market, bought a large number of land in Hong Kong and Australia, bid for land kings, and entered the real estate market in a big way, which has made the capital chain of Sing Tao Newspaper very tight, if Lin Xiaozhi at this time is like dealing with Li Zhiying and Yu Pinhai, let ATV expose her after the investigation, and be chased by creditors to collect debts, then Sing Tao Newspaper will be really dangerous.

With this realization, Hu Xian has understood that it is time to end this boring conflict. At that moment, on the one hand, she urged Sing Tao Newspaper to stop the war of words with Cheng Bao and Lin Xiaozhi, and hung up the war-free card. At the same time, he also began to consider whether to send someone or take the initiative to talk to Lin Xiaozhi and strive to 'mediate' the matter.
