Volume 1 Chapter 251 Lawsuit

This New Year, because the old man was sentenced to prison, Lin Xiaozhi did not feel much of the smell of the New Year at home.

In fact, not only this year, but also last year. Hong Kong people, or the whole of southern China, are far less flavorful than the north, so they only gave themselves a day off, stayed at home and had a few reunion dinners with their father, and he moved back to East Lake, while continuing to work in the company every day.

With the arrival of the New Year, New Asia Film Company also gave most of its employees a holiday, and the one-week vacation was two days longer than the five-day annual leave in Hong Kong, but it was far less than the half-month long holiday in later generations. The reason why Hong Kong is one of the Asian Tigers as a city can also be seen from the few holidays in Hong Kong.

On the seventh day of the lunar calendar, Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev announced that the Soviet Union would abandon the one-party system, which caused countless Western media to cheer and begin to congratulate them in advance on their victory in the Cold War.

After a week of release, "Silly Guy's Birthday" also handed over a satisfactory report card, this film directed by Liu Zhenwei grossed 7.85 million Hong Kong dollars in the first week of release, not high but not bad, for a small-budget film, it is undoubtedly a success.

Liang Jiaren's "A Comic Book Goes to the World" has finally completed post-production, which is unexpectedly earlier than He Fan's "Cheating Treasure". However, with the completion of the post-production of "A Comic Book to the World" and the reactivation of New Asia's propaganda machine, Lin Xiaozhi personally sent someone to negotiate with "Cheng Pao" to discuss the promotion of the film. The crew of "Love Letter" has set off for Japan under the leadership of Zhang Wanting, and they need to shoot snow scenes in some scenes, which is obviously impossible in Hong Kong, where there is no snow all year round. Chen Baiqiang did not go to Japan with the team, and he will stay in Hong Kong for a few days, and will cooperate with New Asia to complete the follow-up handling of the scandal before flying to Japan.

However, he didn't need to delay long in Hong Kong, because after more than a week of thorough preparations, New Asia was finally going to take those media.

On the day of the U day of the month, before dawn, many Hong Kong media reporters rushed to the Regal Kowloon Hotel. They all came with curiosity and concern, because the day before, many media and newspapers in Hong Kong received a call from the agent of the well-known artist Chen Baiqiang, mentioning that Chen Baiqiang will hold a press conference at the Regal Kowloon Hotel today, not only clearly indicating that he will announce the shocking news at the press conference.

Although many reporters wondered what the shocking news he was referring to would be, basically all the newspapers and media that received the invitation sent reporters to come. As a shareholding company of New Asia, Cheng Pao apparently received some hints from New Asia Film Company in advance, not only excluding a professional team of reporters but also sending a team of cameramen, apparently very optimistic about the upcoming press conference.

"Danny, everything is ready"

Chen Jiaying hurriedly walked into the cubicle from the outside, "All the reporters who should come are here, let's go"

Chen Baiqiang nodded, but did not stand up. Seeing that there was still hesitation on his face, Chen Jiaying, a strong woman, said angrily: "Danny, Lin Sheng has arranged it for you, why are you still hesitating?" ”

There were only a few steps between the two, and he took two quick steps forward to pull up Chen Baiqiang, "It's not that I said you, your character is just too soft, if you still don't correct it, you can only be bullied." This entertainment industry is like the natural world, the law of the jungle is the strong, and the thicker the skin, the more likely you are to become famous."

Chen Baiqiang opened his mouth, but his agent Chen Jiaying glared, and his face was a little bright and he didn't speak.

His temperament is too soft, all over the Hong Kong entertainment industry, there are not many celebrities who have more scandals than him. But with so many scandals and gossip, if you change to a thick-skinned person who knows how to publicize, I am afraid that I will become a superstar by now. Where is he like now, not only has he not been able to become popular, but he has suffered from it.

Chen Baiqiang smiled bitterly and glanced at the indignant Chen Jiaying, it has come to this point, where is there a way out, only to face it head-on.

The press conference was held by Chen Baiqiang's agent Chen Jiaying as the master of ceremonies, facing the long guns and short cannons set up several times inside and out, Chen Jiaying, who had memorized the speech prepared by Xinya, waved his arms angrily: "Hong Kong is a society ruled by law, and the atmosphere and system of freedom give public opinion the greatest power to supervise society, and the media are the uncrowned kings here." However, we need to see that in an atmosphere of freedom, there are some unscrupulous and black-hearted media, holding high the banner of the people and the Lord, wantonly manipulating speech and abusing the power given to them by society......"

Having come this far, there is no choice to retreat. Facing a pair of eyes with red eyes waiting for the news, he hardened his head, learned from his agent Chen Jiaying, and recited it word for word according to the script provided by Xinya for him: "...... Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend my press conference today. In fact, I've been hesitating for several years about whether to hold this press conference. Yes, folks, you heard me right, it took me several years to prepare for this press conference before I mustered up the courage."

"A few years ago, some bad media maliciously fabricated the relationship between me and my friend Ms. Weng Jingjing for the sake of news. Not only did a large number of false reports occur, which caused one of my fans to die of a hunger strike, but also brought an extremely bad impact on the family and career of Ms. Weng Jingjing, who was married, and me. Originally, a few years have passed since this incident, and Ms. Weng Jingjing and I have always been afraid of being banned by the media and weakly chose not to fight. But I think we were wrong, our indisputability was not exchanged for the noble hand of those bad media, on the contrary, not long ago, they imposed sewage and malicious tampering gossip on me and my friends, and I was once again wronged......"

rumble

It's like a thunderstorm

In an instant, many media reporters who were present were all stunned, where is this big news, this is clearly a slogan for declaring war, and the people invited to the scene today almost cover most of the mainstream media in Hong Kong, but no one dares to say that the media in their own home did not report on the recent 'Weng Chen scandal incident' for the sake of sales.

A reporter from "Oriental Daily" was the first to react, their "Oriental Daily" was used to being domineering, and now seeing that some artists dared to threaten their own newspapers, they asked rhetorically in an unceremonious tone, and even interrupted Chen Baiqiang's speech: "What does Chen Sheng mean by this, is he preparing to sue all the media in Hong Kong?" ”

His words woke up countless media reporters, who thought that they would be able to receive a big news when they came over today, but they didn't expect it to be really 'big news, so big that it almost affected their own families. At present, where will this media reporter give face, and immediately rush to ask questions and scold, making the press conference a mess.

"Please be quiet...... Please be quiet......"

Chen Jiaying next to him panicked when he saw Chen Baiqiang, sighed and hurriedly stood up to help him block the offensive, "I believe that many media friends have doubts when they hear this, and I would like to invite Mr. Sima Jie, the legal director of New Asia Film Company, to interpret this matter more clearly for everyone......"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a young man standing next to her nodding to many reporters with a smile. Many reporters suddenly realized that the young man who had stood aside from the beginning of the press conference and was regarded as a staff member by them was still the legal director of New Asia Film Company.

Now that even the legal director has appeared, could it be that Chen Baiqiang, who has always been very soft-tempered, has begun to be tough and really wants to sue the major media that slandered him?

In an instant, the venue of the press conference was quiet, and the spotlight flashed at Sima Jie, the legal director of Xinya Film Company with a smile on his face, but the young man seemed to be completely unaffected, walked to Chen Jiaying's side in a few steps, nodded with him and Chen Baiqiang, who had an ugly face, and then opened the folder he carried, turned to a page and opened his mouth to the microphone.

"The contemptible Sima Jie, as Ms. Chen said, is temporarily serving as the legal director of New Asia Film Company. In the past half month, we regret to see that due to the loose binding force of Hong Kong's legal system on the media, some unscrupulous media have seized the opportunity to stir up trouble, grasping a small topic and making a big splash, maliciously leading readers to inflict soft violence on victims. Mr. Chen Baiqiang, Liu Jialiang and his wife, the new film "Love Letter" invested by our company, and even New Asia Records, as the direct victims, have suffered serious losses both psychologically and materially. After we sent a warning letter to most of the misled media outlets demanding that such reporting be stopped, although the vast majority of the media chose to stop reporting, more than a dozen media outlets continued to choose to report on Mr. Chen Baiqiang in a defamatory manner."

Sima Jie's voice gradually became louder, angry and demagogic, "In view of the huge losses caused by these unscrupulous media acts to Mr. Chen Baiqiang, the loss of his endorsement and the loss of fans, our company is surrounding the film "Love Letter" invested by Mr. Chen Baiqiang and Xinya Records, which is preparing a new album for Mr. Chen Baiqiang, have also suffered intangible losses, and the legal department of the company has special entrustment from Mr. Chen Baiqiang and Xinya Records to accept this incident. Now, I announce that New Asia will officially file a lawsuit against the following unscrupulous media ......"

One stone startles a thousand waves
