Chapter 1179: The Middleman
Founded in 1967, Nanye Daily has experienced an era of fierce competition in Hong Kong's newspaper industry, as well as a period of orderly and peaceful development. At its most glorious moment, the newspaper sold 50,000 copies a day. This is nothing remarkable in Hong Kong, where a daily circulation of 100,000 is used as a standard to measure whether it is a big newspaper.
Founded for more than 30 years, the journal has had ups and downs, changed hands several times, and was finally acquired by Ruifeng Company in July 2000. After the acquisition of Ruifeng Company, Shitian was appointed as the editor-in-chief of Nanye Daily, which changed the traditional mode of publishing serialized novels and commenting on current affairs and politics in the past, and turned into an entertainment gossip tabloid specializing in reporting various scandals and interesting stories of celebrities and dignitaries. Since then, it has slowly developed into a medium-sized newspaper with a daily circulation of 30,000.
On December 20, Hong Kong police raided the headquarters of Nanye Daily in Kowloon, which, according to Hong Kong media reports, was suspected of illegal eavesdropping, clandestine photography, and intentional infringement of others' privacy.
It is rumored that the Hong Kong police raid was authorized by a senior officer of the Department of Police. The large number of eavesdropping equipment seized by the police is enough to confirm the possibility of illegal eavesdropping in Nanye Daily. There is even a full video of the bed-play of a famous actress. In view of privacy protection, the police did not disclose details to the media.
That night, major media in Hong Kong reported on the case of Nanye Daily. Shi Tian, the editor-in-chief of Nanye Daily, was arrested on the evening of the 20th and left the Kowloon Police Station on the morning of the 21st after collecting a bail of US$1 million.
On the morning of the 21st, well-known figures in major newspapers condemned Nanye Daily's blatant violation of the law and breaking through the bottom line of social morality, and interview programs in the media followed up one after another. For a time, dark clouds were at the top.
"When are you going back to Hong Kong?" Push open the door to the Presidential Suite at the Lidor Hotel. Seeing that Lu Jing was looking at the sunset coast from the window, Chen Xiao walked behind Lu Jing. Suddenly there was some pain in his heart, and he hugged Lu Jing's thick back. Asked softly.
Lu Jing woke up from his contemplation, turned around and smiled, and said, "I have asked Xiaoyu to book a plane for the night and go to Hong Kong tomorrow morning." "The grim situation in Hong Kong has been learned by guò Mo Xinlan and Hehua's internal emails.
Chen Xiao comforted: "At most, give up Nanye Daily, and Ruifeng Company's reputation will be damaged." You don't have too much pressure. ”
Lu Jing smiled, "I'm not that fragile. I was thinking: the people of the Gao family are very smart. ”
Chen looked up at Lu Jing with a puzzled smile, "Why do you say that?" ”
Lu Jingdao: "Nanye Daily reported on the love triangle between Gao Ziyuan, Su Yuan, and Kou Ling at that time. reported that Gao Ziyuan wore a green hat on his head, and even took a few photos taken outside Kou Ling's villa. The Gao family probably judged that Nanye Daily was Hehua's intelligence agency through the photos. It's just, I'm weird. Who gave the Gao family the courage to dare to deal with Nanye Daily. ”
Chen Xiao blinked his big charming eyes and said, "What do you mean by that?" ”
Lu Jing put his arm around Chen Xiao's waist and said, "When the Gao family was against us before, it was all vague, and it was mostly a friction caused by different business positions. Now it's a naked-naked enemy. It takes courage to go into battle shirtless. ”
Chen Xiaojiao smiled and glanced at Lu Jing, "What does it mean to go into battle shirtless, it's ugly." You just said that the Gao family dared to confront us head-on. There must be some support, right? ”
"That's it." Lu Jing smiled and kissed Chen Xiao's delicate and small melon seed face. At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Su Xiaoyu, who was wearing a striped sundress with strong ethnic customs, appeared at the door.
Su Xiaoyu saw that Mr. Chen broke free from Lu Jing's embrace like a rabbit. He smiled and said, "I didn't see anything." Mr. Chen, Lu Jing, it's time to eat. ”
Lu Jing shook his head with a smile. "Let's go." Before leaving, he hosted a dinner with executives from the Warpers office and the Jinghua branch of the Lido Hotel Group at the Didor Hotel restaurant.
…
…
In the restaurant box on the 8th floor, seven or eight managers from the Chinese department in Perth were invited to dinner, and Lu Jing, Chen Xiao, Su Xiaoyu, Tang Yuyao, and Mo Jingwen returned to the Lidor seaside villa for a short rest. In another 40 minutes, Lu Jing and his entourage will depart for Perth International Airport to return to Hong Kong.
Lu Jing, Tang Yuyao, and Mo Jingwen's luggage had already been packed. The five of them sat on the balcony on the third floor and chatted with the vast sea view.
Then. Lu Jing's mobile phone rang. Lu Jing looked at the number and went to the room on the second floor to answer the phone. During the meal just now, he successively answered the calls of Dong Kuncheng, Yang Yuli, Wu Xuan, He Mengyao and others. It's all about Hong Kong.
"Jing Shao, can you still stand up to it in Hong Kong?" On the phone, Zhou Fusheng said with some concern. He is in the middle of a North American PR investigation into Jinghua's mobile phone.
Zhou Fusheng is a member of the Hehua Council and has a little understanding of the situation of Ruifeng Company and Nanye Daily.
Lu Jing smiled and said, "If you can't stand it, you have to top it." I'll be in Hong Kong tomorrow. ”
Zhou Fusheng was very familiar with Lu Jing's style of doing things, and said with a smile: "It seems that Jing Shao already has a belly case." After pondering for a while, Jian yì said: "Jing Shao, if it doesn't work, you can abandon Ruifeng Company." ”
As the core company in the Jinghua-Ruifeng system, Ruifeng Company holds a large number of shares in Jinghua and Hehua companies, and it will be very troublesome to close down Ruifeng Company to straighten out this complicated relationship.
However, Ruifeng Company is the parent company of Nanye Daily, and if something happens to Nanye Daily, once it is implicated, Ruifeng Company's reputation will be ruined, and shutting down Ruifeng Company is the last resort.
Lu Jingdao: "Heh, this depends on the situation." "Whether it needs to be like this in the end depends on whether his arrangement can be effective.
After chatting with Zhou Fusheng for a while, Lu Jing hung up the phone and smoked a cigarette quietly.
"Squeak-" With a sound, Chen Xiao pushed open the door and came in, a faint smell of smoke filled the room, and she could feel Lu Jing's pressure, "Do you want to hear good news?" ”
Lu Jing smiled, "In such a short period of time, can you still make a good news?" ”
"Why not?" Chen smiled charmingly, took the mobile phone from Lu Jing's hand, pressed the numeric keypad, dialed a number to go out, and then handed it to Lu Jing's hand, and said with a smile: "Answer the phone!" ”
Lu Jing looked at the unknown number on his phone in surprise, "Who is it for?" ”
"You'll find out if you don't take it." Chen Xiao chuckled and leaned gently into Lu Jing's arms.
"Hello!" A slightly familiar woman's voice came from the phone. Lu Jing looked at Chen Xiao and saw that she refused to speak, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Hello, I'm Lu Jing." ”
"Ah..., Lu Jing..., it's you." The voice on the phone was surprised at first, then indifferent, and then a little detached.
Lu Jing's mind became blank in an instant, as if the computer had formatted it, and the blank made him unable to think. On the other end of the phone was Li Feifei.
I haven't seen Li Feifei for a long time, and I have met once or twice occasionally during the Chinese New Year in the past few years, and I didn't hear her voice at first.
"You got my phone number from Wang Can. Uh..., nothing happened to me and I hung up. Li Feifei said softly.
Lu Jing could be regarded as understanding what the good news Chen Xiao said, and his heart suddenly swelled with tenderness, but he didn't expect Chen Xiao to help him find Li Feifei's contact information.
Lu Jing looked down at Chen Xiao's delicate melon seed face and charming big eyes. She is wearing a white white commuter mid-waist satin dress today, condescending, and her pink bra can be seen from the neckline, with large snow muscles, and small, firm sook-breasts.
Among his women, the smiling posture is not the best, but this relationship is plain and real, and she has an inseparable family affection.
Lu Jing hugged Chen Xiao tightly with one hand, and said, "Well, it's nothing, I heard Wang Can say that you are here in Australia, and I will call you." I'm in Perth. He was about to say a few words and hung up.
Li Feifei said: "I came to Sydney last week, and there is a winter fashion show here. ”
Lu Jing sighed and said, "I'll fly to Hong Kong in a while, see you later!" ”
Hanging up Li Feifei's phone, Lu Jing looked at Chen Xiao and hugged her tightly in his arms. This silly woman.
Stress reduction is not such a subtraction, killing the Gao family is the king.
…
…
It was 10 p.m. when the plane landed at Hong Kong International Airport. Extremely tired after a long journey, Lu Jing asked Tang Yuyao and Mo Jingwen to go back to the villa on the Peak of Hong Kong to rest first, and he changed cars and went to the headquarters of Longsheng International in Tamsa Building, Central. Dong Kuncheng was waiting there.
The president's office on the 32nd floor is quiet, and the bright lights make the office as bright as day. Dong Bing, who was working overtime, made a cameo appearance as an assistant to make a cup of coffee for his father and Lu Jing, and sat down generously to listen.
Dong Kuncheng said self-deprecatingly: "People are easy to get sleepy when they are old, so they have to rely on coffee to refresh themselves." He took a sip of the coffee at hand and said, "You came back just in time, and the shape has deteriorated further." ”
Nanye Daily questioned the legality of the Hong Kong police's sudden search of the headquarters and filed a lawsuit with the court. However, a spokesman for the Hong Kong police said they would produce hard evidence. Immediately, the Hong Kong police found the camera placed by Nanye Daily in the villa of the actress surnamed Z. Bathrooms and bedrooms. There has been an uproar in the Hong Kong media.
Dong Kuncheng sighed: "Now when you turn on the TV, you can see the program criticizing Nanye Daily. As he spoke, he hinted: "Lu Jing, I will ask Director Tang to find someone to talk to the police in Hong Kong." ”
There is no country in the world where the police system is full of honest people. It's not a life lawsuit, and there is a lot of room for maneuver. Of course, Nanye Daily falls under the category of business intelligence. He doesn't plan to get involved in this area.
Lu Jing groaned and didn't answer immediately.
Dong Bing added: "Lu Jing, the Internet is also full of scolding. There has been a wave in the media, and this matter must be dealt with quickly. Otherwise, the consequences are difficult to predict. ”
After the past two years of training, Dong Bing's capable temperament has become more and more obvious. Lu Jing smiled and nodded, "I know." Let's find out the situation from Uncle Dong first, and I'll talk to Tang Yue later and arrange this matter. ”
It is true that the parent company of Nanye Daily is Ruifeng Company, but if you talk to the senior superintendent of the police in private, you must not be in the name of Ruifeng Company, let alone in the name of Hehua. Otherwise, exposing Hehua and Ruifeng will be regarded as a fire. You have to find a middleman.
Lu Jing was just thinking about the choice of the middleman. (To be continued......)
