Chapter 235 Frying pot (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  What was Xiangjiang like in the 1970s?

  The establishment of ICAC represents the alternation of old and new order, and the alternation of order represents the coexistence of chaos and order!

  British-funded consortiums are still aloof, but they are no longer so unattainable. Chinese-funded consortiums are rising strongly. British-funded consortia that were once out of reach will also become their targets. A new business order is slowly forming.

  The tide of thought has receded, Xiangjiang people will become pure, and everything will look at money.

  In any case, Xiangjiang in the 1970s can be summed up in two words, chaos and order!

   And in this, money becomes extremely important.

   What Chu Huan has to do today is to throw a deep-sea thunder full of money to the current Xiangjiang!

"First of all, I know that everyone is very concerned about the contents of today's newspaper. I would like to clarify to all Hong Kong citizens that I know nothing about the stock market crash. As for my personal business behavior, it is entirely because of It was analyzed after receiving various notifications from the Hong Kong government. I don’t think I need to say anything about the various notifications from the Hong Kong government. Everyone knew it at the time.

Secondly, in view of the fact that the news content of the major newspapers in Hong Kong has seriously affected me, not only myself, but also related companies under my name have also been affected, so after discussing with my legal counsel, I decided to , starting today, filed a lawsuit against the three newspapers in Xiangjiang, "Oriental Daily", "Sing Tao Daily" and "Sing Pao".

  For this lawsuit, I specially invited Lawyer Luo Decheng as the lawyer for this case. At the same time, I have also invited three British Queen’s Counsel to form a lawyer team to deal with this case.

  In addition, if the three newspapers can provide the identity of the rumormonger behind the scenes, I will withdraw the complaint against them. If any Xiangjiang citizen can provide information, I will send 1 million rewards to thank them. "

   After saying this, Chu Huan didn't accept any questions from the reporters on the scene, turned around and returned to Jiahu Building, leaving behind Chu Huan's representative lawyer, Luo Decheng!

  The reporters who were shocked by Chu Huan's words and shut their mouths just now, who didn't know why, finally came to their senses at this time. After a short silence, they asked frantically.

  Chu Huan didn't have to face the situation on the scene, but Luo Decheng had to face it. The scene was like a frying pan!

  Everyone guessed how Chu Huan would explain this matter.

  But no one thought that Chu Huan would be so crazy that he sued the three newspapers that published the news today, "Oriental Daily", "Sing Tao Daily", and "Sing Pao".

   These are the three newspapers with the highest sales volume and the most influence in Xiangjiang.

   What Chu Huan did today was to make these so-called uncrowned kings no longer have the pride of the past.

  The reporters on the scene, after a short period of shock, asked frantically. In addition to the shock and anger of the reporters of the above three newspapers, the reporters of other newspapers also gloated.

  I let you guys get the exclusive news, it’s all right now, let Chu Huan sue.

Look at the team of lawyers that Chu Huan hired, one Xiangjiang barrister, three British Queen's barristers, such a luxurious team of lawyers, if this lawsuit is won, if Chu Huan wins, then these three newspapers will usher in Astronomical compensation.

   Let your nostrils be turned upside down normally, it’s all right now, when you encounter hard problems, the other party doesn’t care about your influence in Xiangjiang at all, just be tough to the end.

  Of course, in this gloating mood, there is also anger towards Chu Huan. After all, they belong to the same group. Chu Huan's current behavior is simply provoking all the media in Xiangjiang.

   This is unacceptable to them.

   Bang Dang!

   Bang Dang!

   Bang Dang!

All the people who were paying attention to this incident in front of the TV showed shocked expressions. Although they all knew that Chu Huan would definitely take action this time, they did not expect that Chu Huan's counterattack would be so crazy and so reckless !

Maybe they don't care about one or two newspapers, but Chu Huan's current behavior is obviously pushing the entire newspaper media in Xiangjiang to the opposite side. Regardless of whether Chu Huan can win the lawsuit this time, Chu Huan It is inevitable that they will face the frantic siege of these newspapers.

   Does Chu Huan really not care about these things?

   No one can understand Chu Huan's true thoughts at this time.

  After the shock, everyone picked up the phone and called Chu Huan's office, hoping to learn from Chu Huan what he really thought.

   But obviously, calling Chu Huan at this time is impossible.

  As for Chu Huan, after speaking with the reporters, he turned and left Jiahu Building, and returned to his villa in Repulse Bay.

  When Cao Yunshang and Miao Kexiu saw Chu Huan coming back, they both showed strong concern.

   "Do you think my behavior is a little crazy?"

  Chu Huan understood what the two of them were thinking, and said to them with a smile on his face.

Cao Yunshang calmly said at this time: "It's really crazy, but it's very effective. After you do this, all the media in Xiangjiang will turn their attention from the stock market crash to your lawsuit against these three newspapers." problem, but"

   "However, the reason you sued these three newspapers is also because of the stock market crash. Therefore, even if the news reports of the stock market crash are no longer important, they will still be brought up repeatedly by major newspapers in their reports about your suing these three newspapers!"

  Chu Huan nodded slightly, agreeing with Cao Yunshang's statement. In fact, if it was because of other things, such as pornographic news, Chu Huan only needed a piece of news that overshadowed the pornographic news and had nothing to do with him.

   This thing will pass.

But now that Chu Huan is facing a stock market crash, the issue that Xiangjiang people are most concerned about at this time, even if there are other hot news, it is difficult to cover up this news, and if Chu Huan chooses to deal with it coldly, then it will be indirect. acknowledging what was reported in the newspaper.

  If this matter is settled, then Chu Huan will have a real hard time afterwards.

  So the first thing to do is to let the citizens of Xiangjiang change their views on this matter from the previous certainty to suspicion.

  If you want to change such a thing, you must not delay it. The sooner you respond, the better.

   Otherwise, even if Chu Huan has a better solution later, the delay in time has already made the citizens of Xiangjiang confirm this matter in their hearts.

   If you want to change their minds later, it will be really difficult!

  After listening to Chu Huan's explanation, Cao Yunshang and Miao Kexiu also showed helpless expressions, knowing that Chu Huan's choice at this time was also a helpless choice.

   "I'm afraid you will live under a microscope in the future!"

  Cao Yunshang preached worriedly.

  Chu Huan's current behavior is equivalent to declaring war on the entire Xiangjiang media, and both Cao Yunshang and Miao Kexiu on the side know what the result will be.

  Chu Huan will usher in the crazy revenge of Xiangjiang media.

  They will magnify Chu Huan's life under a microscope.

   Everyone knows the madness of Xiangjiang media. Compared with the current Xiangjiang reporters, the so-called paparazzi of later generations are simply the existence of the five scum of war.

  Chu Huan said with a relaxed smile: "Naturally, it will be a little troublesome at the beginning, but as long as the trouble in front of me can be solved, everything is worth it."

   "Is this really the only way to solve it?" Although Cao Yunshang understood what Chu Huan meant, he still felt that this matter would be very troublesome, and he would not let Chu Huan solve this matter so easily.

"Of course this is not enough now!" Chu Huan said firmly: "As I said just now, there is only one purpose for doing this, and that is to plant a seed of doubt in the hearts of the citizens of Xiangjiang. It is possible to change their minds in the future if they doubt what they firmly believe in!"

  Once the influence is formed, it is not something that can be solved in a short time if you want to eliminate this influence.

   Open your mouth to spread rumors, but you will lose your legs if you refute them!

   Fortunately, Chu Huan is no longer a minor player in Xiangjiang.

  Miao Kexiu said worriedly: "Will the current situation affect your business, Brother Huan?"

  Chu Huan nodded, and said helplessly: "In a short period of time, there must be an influence, but as time goes by, it will be fine, and this influence will decrease infinitely!"

   This is the most interesting part of the whole thing.

If Chu Huan hadn't made this move today, then in the hearts of the citizens of Xiangjiang, Chu Huan would be 100% the kind of person described in the newspapers. Even if Chu Huan came up with a more favorable statement later, it would be difficult to change their attitude. idea.

   This is naturally a devastating blow to Chu Huan's personal image.

  But does a businessman's good or bad image really have such a big impact on his company's products?

   There must be some period of time, but as long as you survive this period of time, you will find that such influence is definitely falling in a geometric pattern.

  How is Li Jiacheng's image in Xiangjiang?

   Has it delayed the Yangtze River Department’s earning money in the Xiangjiang enclosure?

  Mr. Ma’s reputation is good in his hometown?

   Did it delay Ali’s money making?

  Is Mr. Ma's reputation good?

  Did the penguin make money?

  People are realistic and vote with their feet.

  As long as your product is enough to impress the customer's needs, he will scold you while consuming your product!

  That's why Chu Huan said that in a short period of time, this incident will definitely have an impact on Chu Huan's business, but after a long time, such impact will be minimized.

  What Chu Huan really wants to do is how to change his image.

  If Jiahu Textile is still listed, such news would be a devastating blow to Jiahu Textile, but now that Jiahu Textile has been delisted, such a situation will naturally not happen.

  After trying to understand what Chu Huan meant, Cao Yunshang and Miao Kexiu could only temporarily let go of their worries.

   While Chu Huan was discussing this matter with Cao Yunshang and Miao Kexiu, the entire Xiangjiang River exploded because of Chu Huan's statement!

   "This Chu Huan is too ruthless. He wants to sue the three major newspapers. Could it be out of embarrassment?"

   "I don't think so. If Chu Huan didn't have the confidence, how would he dare to sue the three major newspapers? I guess, there may be something inside this matter that we don't know about!"

   "What's the inside story, I think Chu Huan has nothing to do, so he jumps over the wall in a hurry and bites people indiscriminately!"

   "You can't say that. If I were Chu Huan, I should take advantage of this time to establish a good relationship with the media instead of choosing to file a lawsuit with the media at this time. This will only make him more passive."

"Let me put it this way, it seems to have some truth, but as the saying goes, there are no waves without wind. Three years ago, Chu Huan was just a down-and-out son with only 50,000 Hong Kong dollars, but now he has a net worth of one billion Hong Kong dollars. How did he make money from the stock market crash?"

   "You have some brains, okay? The stock market crash just happened. Tell me how to use 50,000 Hong Kong dollars to make one billion in the stock market crash!"

  Such disputes are happening in various places in Xiangjiang, and it can be seen from this that Chu Huan's behavior has indeed changed the views of some Xiangjiang people on this matter.

  At the same time, in the three newspapers of "Oriental Daily", "Sing Tao Daily" and "Sing Pao", the chairman and general manager also looked at each other in blank dismay.

   They have never encountered such a thing now!

  In the past, media reporters have always been called the uncrowned kings, only they criticize others. When did someone be so stubborn and dare to sue them?

  Sing Tao News Building, North Point, Hong Kong Island!

  Hu Xian, the chairman of "Sing Tao Daily", looked at the lawyer's letter on her desk at this time, and was a little silent.

  Luo Decheng's work efficiency is very high. After Chu Huan finished his statement, he immediately sent a lawyer's letter to the three major newspapers.

  In the lawyer's letter, Luo Decheng emphasized that "Sing Tao Daily"'s report on Chu Huan's behavior in the stock market crash was seriously deviated from the facts and had the attribute of spreading rumors.

   Not only demanded that "Sing Tao Daily" publish an apology, but also demand that "Sing Tao Daily" compensate Chu Huan for mental damage of 10 million Hong Kong dollars!

   "This Chu Huan is actually playing for real!"

  Hu Xian also watched Chu Huan's statement on TV. At that time, Hu Xian didn't take this matter to heart, thinking that Chu Huan was just playing tricks.

  The purpose was to defend himself, but he didn't expect Chu Huan to be serious, and he really sent a lawyer's letter to "Sing Tao Daily".

  Even though it is the top three newspapers in Hong Kong, in fact, the annual profit of "Sing Tao Daily" this year is only 10 million.

  So 10 million Hong Kong dollars in cash is not a small amount for them, not to mention that it is during the Hong Kong stock market crash, and the Hu Xian family also suffered heavy losses in this stock market crash.

   "President, what should we do now?"

  Situ Yi, the editor-in-chief of "Sing Tao Daily", sat opposite Hu Xian and asked aloud.

  The entire "Sing Tao Daily" respects Hu Xian very much.

"Sing Tao Daily" was founded by Hu Xian's father Hu Wenhu, and Hu Wenhu's idea of ​​​​founding "Sing Tao Daily" at the beginning of the establishment of "Sing Tao Daily" did not think of establishing "Sing Tao Daily" as one of the most influential newspapers in Hong Kong , His original intention of founding "Sing Tao Daily" was just to advertise his own medicine more conveniently.

  However, they didn’t expect that in the later development of "Sing Tao Daily", the business scale gradually surpassed their previous pharmaceutical business.

   And Hu Wenhu also has the title of king of the newspaper industry.

   Someone asked Hu Wenhu the secret of his success, and he replied: "Stay away from politics, don't talk about doctrine, talk about business in business, and run newspapers for profit."

  After Hu Wenhu passed away, the various newspapers under Sing Tao Newspapers were inherited by Hu Wenhu's children, each of whom was in charge of a share. Among them, the pharmaceutical business was also inherited.

  Hu Wenhu is very traditional, and although Hu Xian is favored by Hu Wenhu, she is a girl after all, and most importantly, she is Hu Wenhu's adopted daughter.

  According to conventional thinking, no matter what, it is impossible for Hu Wenhu to hand over Xiangjiang "Sing Tao Daily" to Hu Xian!

  And those children of Hu Wenhu will not agree.

  But by chance, Hu Xian did it.

  It turned out that although Hu Wenhu was the boss when "Sing Tao Daily" was founded, it was the editor-in-chief Lin Aimin who really made "Sing Tao Daily" bigger and stronger.

  However, companions are like companions to tigers. In 1951, Lin Aimin was dismissed for "misappropriating public funds to invest in stocks".

  The guest-host relationship between Lin Aimin and Hu Wenhu for more than 20 years was severed overnight. This is the "Lin Aimin Incident" that caused a sensation in the Xiangjiang newspaper industry.

   Xingdao's vitality was seriously injured, and it was in chaos. Hu Wenhu acted as the president and mobilized all his children to come and take over the shift or participate in the management.

But even so, "Sing Tao Daily" was still in a state of panic, and hadn't recovered its vitality for three years. Later, Hu Wenhu passed away. After discussions with Hu Wenhu's children and Hu Wenhu's last words, 22-year-old Hu Xian took office as the editor of Xiangjiang Sing Tao Newspaper. General manager.

   When Hu Xian went to work on the first day, her sister-in-law was worried that Hu Xian would not be able to control the people of Sing Tao Newspaper, so she proposed to go there with Hu Xian.

  Hu Xian smiled wryly at the time and said, "Look, the manager is still a child, does he need someone to accompany him to work?"

  According to the memories of the old man at the newspaper office, Hu Xian was very simple that day, carrying a document bag, like an ordinary employee, and came to the newspaper office. She was composed and calm, with a touch of melancholy.

  She didn't sit in a chair in the manager's office, summoning all levels of executives and calling the shots.

   Instead, I went to various departments to visit, and my speech was very short and practical.

"It's so strange, a young girl, a few simple and simple words, actually made us want to vent our anger and didn't know when it slipped away. We think she is tender, but she is very solid, and her facial expressions tell People need support, to be a reliable person, and that's all."

  An old Star reporter recalled, and he went on to say: "At that time, some people listened to her and thought that she was very self-cultivated and possessed a city, and she seemed to be an unpredictable person."

  After Hu Xian took office, she implemented the "Business Department System", responsible for each level, responsible for each level, indicators were implemented, and regular assessments were carried out. In the first year after implementation, the profits of each department doubled. The employees' income increased, and they looked at Hu Xian with admiration. Everyone said:

   "This girl is better than her father."

  Hu Xian sold the newspaper to Taiwan and Island at the same time, and published the European and American airline editions.

  Later, a method faster than airplanes was adopted, using communication satellites to transmit, and it was printed in New York, London, Paris and other places on the same day.

   In terms of sales in Hong Kong, Sing Tao is inferior to Dongfang and Tian Tian. In terms of total sales in the world, Sing Tao has two newspapers every day and evening, with sales reaching 1 million copies.

  Since then, Sing Tao's profits have increased year by year. This year, the net profit after tax of the newspaper industry was 15 million Hong Kong dollars; in the 1980s, the annual profit of the newspaper industry exceeded 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

   Such a performance, even some major newspapers in Europe and the United States are astonished.

  In May last year, Galaxy Newspaper Co., Ltd. changed its name to Sing Tao Newspaper Co., Ltd., and Hu Xian still served as the chairman.

  The company went public in June, and stocks with a face value of 2 Hong Kong dollars were sold at a premium of 6 Hong Kong dollars, and there were a lot of buyers.

  Hu Xian holds 86.7% of the company's shares. Based on the peak market value, her equity is worth 430 million Hong Kong dollars.

"What should we do?" Hu Xian chuckled, and said, "Since Chu Huan wants to play a big game, then I will accompany him. From today onwards, a special column will be opened in the newspaper to report the progress of this matter. If we want to let the whole Xiangjiang know about this, then we let the whole Xiangjiang know about it."

  Situ Yi understood what Hu Xian meant, but he just wanted to use this matter to continue to increase the influence and sales of "Sing Tao Daily" in Xiangjiang.

   But there are still some things to work out.

   "What about the lawyer's letter that Chu Huan sent us?"

  Hu Xian asked aloud: "Has the person who sent us the message been found?"

  Situ Yi showed a helpless expression, "Not yet!"

  Last night, when "Sing Tao Daily" was about to decide the headline on the front page of this morning's newspaper, a mysterious person suddenly sent a piece of information.

After reading the information, Situ Yi turned pale with shock. It was about Chu Huan's series of behaviors during the stock market crash. Situ Yi immediately called Hu Xian. Hu Xian rushed to the company overnight. After weighing the content, it was immediately stated that it would be changed to the headline of the front page.

  This is the content of today's newspaper of "Sing Tao Daily".

  However, like many people, Hu Xian did not expect Chu Huan's reaction to be so violent, and sued herself directly.

  But, does Hu Xian regret it?

  It's hard to say, there is a high probability that it will not, after all, this matter is too influential.

   "Chu Huan hired a lawyer, and we also hired a lawyer. I want to see if Chu Huan is really what the information says!"

It is definitely impossible for Hu Xian to let "Sing Tao Daily" apologize to Chu Huan in the newspaper. If this happens, the credibility of "Sing Tao Daily" will be ruined, so no matter what, this time it must respond to Chu Huan !

   "Also, check for me, who is the person who sent the materials yesterday!"

Situ Yi said with some embarrassment: "President, when that person came, he covered his face. At that time, we thought he was a robber. If the information he sent was not so important, we might have called the police. How could it be possible to remember the appearance of the other party!"

  Hu Xian took a deep breath, feeling helpless.

   "Do your best!"

   Now it can only be like this!

  Situ Yi nodded.

  The reactions of "Oriental Daily" and "Sheng Pao" were similar to Hu Xian's. It was impossible for them to admit cowardly at the first time, and they had no choice but to respond to the lawsuit!

  That night, the citizens of Xiangjiang learned about this incident in the Evening News.

  In an instant, everyone was as excited as a chicken blood.

   "I don't care whether this matter about Chu Huan is true or not, now I have discovered that as long as Chu Huan is around, we will have plenty of fun to watch!"

   Someone couldn't help preaching.

   "Why do I feel that you don't seem to hate Chu Huan as much as you did during the day today? Why? Your losses in the stock market crash have returned?"

"Come back, come back, come back, I'm still eating steamed buns now, but hate turns to hate, and the money will definitely not come back. I have been making troubles during this period, and it turned out that Chu Huan got into trouble with the three major newspapers, just to transfer me The attention is good!"

   "What a big heart!"

   "Do you have another way?"

   Such discussions are happening in many places where people gather.

  Chu Huan, the center of this storm, met Guo Bingxiang, Feng Yongfa, Tang Yunian, and Zhao Shizeng at the Jade Meeting at this time.

  When they first met, several people had already expressed their concern to Chu Huan, saying that if Chu Huan needed anything, just ask them.

  Chu Huan naturally expressed his gratitude.

   "Ah Huan, this matter is obviously targeted at you. Although your statement has diverted other people's attention, this alone is not enough!"

  Feng Yongfa preached to Chu Huan worriedly.

   "That's right, Ah Huan, think about it, who did you offend during this period of time, the other party is so vicious, and came up with such a trick to deal with you?"

   Guo Bingxiang is also worried about preaching.

  Chu Huan spread his hands, "I'm such a good person, I have so many friends around me, and I usually do things with kindness, I really can't think of offending anyone!"

   Everyone obviously couldn't accept Chu Huan's explanation.

  The oldest Zhao Shizeng said: "You can't take this matter lightly. If you don't handle it well, you will easily be nailed to the pillar of shame, especially now that you have declared war on the entire Xiangjiang media!"

Chu Huan nodded and said: "I know, but you can rest assured that this matter is impossible even if the person behind the scenes wants to stop the war. I haven't been targeted like this before. I will definitely investigate this matter. of!"

   Everyone understood Chu Huan's character, and understood that it was impossible for Chu Huan to remain silent after suffering such a big loss.

   "By the way, just now you said that not only were people slandering you in the newspaper, but several companies under your name were also targeted. Could it be the same person who is doing two things?"

  Guo Bingxiang thought of what Chu Huan just said.

   "In my opinion, this is not the behavior of one person, but the behavior of a group. If one person wants to do this, it may not be so easy!"

   Tang Yunian analyzed.

  Everyone nodded, and then showed worried expressions. If this is the case, it will be even more troublesome.

  Seeing everyone's expressions, Chu Huan said with a smile, "It's useless to worry about these things at this time. The most important thing is how to solve the current problem."

  When everyone saw Chu Huan's expression, they glanced at each other, and in the end it was Zhao Shizeng who preached.

   "Don't you already have a solution?"

   "Isn't sending a lawyer's letter to the three major newspapers already a solution?" Chu Huan said with a smile.

   "What time is it, are you still joking!" Zhao Shizeng was quite helpless. When he saw the news today, he also thought about what he should do if he faced Chu Huan's current problems by himself.

  Finally, Zhao Shizeng had to admit that if he had changed himself, he must have left Xiangjiang to avoid the limelight!

   But seeing Chu Huan still smiling now, I couldn't help but admire him!

   "Although the problems come together, if you want to solve them, you have to come one by one!" Chu Huan said ambiguously.

   Not today, the next chapter will be at twelve o’clock tomorrow morning~Thank you everyone~
