Chapter 717: Not only easy, but also disgusting
Hou Liang walked to the desk, opened one of the drawers, and took out the equipment.
"Here."
He carefully handed the equipment to Duanduan. Duanduan reached out to take it and examined it left and right, asking: "The memory card is also inside, is there any extra backup?"
"No—no backup, it's all inside."
Hou Liang looked at the equipment in Duanduan's hand with full anxiety, because there was really no extra backup. He was very afraid that the person in front of him would smash the equipment in the next second, and then everything would be destroyed.
"Big brother, we agreed on handing over the money... handing over the goods."
Hou Liang spoke unwillingly. That was not a small amount of money. How could it just end like this?
Duanduan couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "You really fell into the money eye. It's already this situation, and you're still thinking about money?"
Hou Liang had a decaying face, and emboldened himself to respond: "We must have integrity in being a person, right? Look, the stuff has already been given to you. As for the money, if it really doesn't work, we can talk again..."
"Talk?" Duanduan sneered: "You can't talk to me, naturally someone will talk to you."
As he said this, he looked at the brother beside him and raised his eyebrows: "Huizi, go invite Sister Ci in, and say the stuff has been obtained."
The other party nodded and walked out of the office quickly.
Not long after, Shen Ci stepped into the gate of "Fengyao Media." At this time, the scene in the office area of the entire company could be described as quite spectacular.
All the employees of the company, nearly a hundred people, were all lined up neatly in the blank positions of the aisles and walls, and their hands were placed behind their heads, not daring to move.
Dozens of men in black stared at them, preventing anyone from using their mobile phones to secretly film or record.
As soon as Shen Ci appeared, these black-clothed men with rigorous temperament called out in unison: "Sister Ci!"
She just raised her eyes lightly and only said: "Don't hurt anyone."
After speaking, she was taken to Hou Liang's office by Huizi.
"Sister Ci, the video is here." Duanduan handed the stuff in his hand to Shen Ci at the first opportunity, and then retreated behind Shen Ci.
Hou Liang and Hu Ming looked at each other. They were completely unfamiliar with Shen Ci who appeared suddenly. They thought that the one who came here to trade should be Sister Zhu Li.
Shen Ci walked to the sofa and sat down, raised her eyes to look at the two: "Who did this interview?"
"Him!" Hou Liang pointed to Hu Ming without hesitation. Hu Ming stared in shock.
Don't even hesitate?
"What's your name?" Shen Ci looked at Hu Ming and asked.
Her tone was very light, without any emotion, and she couldn't hear any joy or anger. Although Hu Ming was afraid, he still said obediently: "Hu Ming."
"Show me the video inside."
Hu Ming was stunned and didn't move, his fingers kept nervously buckling his palms. Hou Liang on the side was afraid of being implicated and couldn't help but push him with his elbow: "Go."
Hu Ming shook his head in a dilemma. He didn't dare to. The video inside had not been edited yet, and for convenience, he recorded the whole process of the interview, including his deliberate guidance of Hu Xiang and his daughter to lie.
He originally thought that he would edit it later anyway, and only edit the content he wanted to broadcast. He never thought that things would become like this.
"Are you deaf?" Duanduan scolded fiercely: "Can you film but not broadcast?"
Hu Ming swallowed his saliva, stretched out his trembling hand to take the machine, turned it on and pressed it a few times, and the video was adjusted.
Shen Ci held the machine and watched it expressionlessly. The whole company suddenly became quiet, with only the dialogue coming from the machine.
"You're not saying it right, it's boring."
"It's been twenty years, who has evidence?"
"Follow what I said, I can add money for you."
"..."
As the video content played, Hu Ming's back was soaked with cold sweat, and Hou Liang didn't even dare to breathe.
After Shen Ci finished watching, forty minutes had passed. She sneered and said jokingly: "Just want to ask for one thousand dollars with these fabricated things? You earn money not only easily, but also quite disgustingly."
They say that current media can ignore the truth for traffic, and it really is like this. Any low-down method can be used.
"At first I wanted to call the police to solve this matter through legal channels. Now it seems that to deal with you group of rats in the gutter, you should use this method to be effective."
Shen Ci raised the machine in her hand, looking at them with sarcasm: "If I release the complete version of this video on the internet, what do you think the consequences of the whole thing will be?"
In one sentence, Hou Liang and Hu Ming both looked up in horror.
Hu Ming's face was pale, because this interview was done by him. Malicious guidance, fictional plots, creating contradictions, and guiding cyberbullying—each point was enough to ruin his career.
And what Hou Liang was afraid of was that if the complete version of this video was exposed, all the media accounts operated within the company would lose their credibility overnight. And once a media company loses the trust of netizens, the efforts of many years would be completely ruined.
All the million-level big Vs, ten-million-level big Vs, and all the marketing accounts that were hard-operated and incubated would be implicated, reported, or even permanently banned because of this matter.
Then they would be finished, and the company would be finished!
"Know you're afraid?" Shen Ci was very satisfied with the two people's faces: "I hate others threatening me the most, especially using the person most important to me to threaten me."
"Does the taste of being threatened and intimidated feel bad? Then the opportunity is here. Now it's my turn to exchange conditions with you."
Shen Ci said it easily, but every word fell on the other party's ears like a thousand-jin boulder.
"Beauty..." Hou Liang blinked his eyes and opened his mouth with a crying voice: "Since the video has been given to you, we definitely won't release it, and we will definitely not follow up on the hot spots related to Shen Li later. Do you think it's okay?"
Shen Ci shook her head: "No."
Hou Liang was about to cry: "We don't want the money either..."
"You're still thinking about money?" Duanduan scolded.
Hou Liang shook his head repeatedly, looking at Shen Ci and asking with a plea: "Then beauty, you say, what do you want to do?"
Shen Ci blinked, as if she had an idea in her heart: "Although I am not in the entertainment industry, I have heard of some rules and means. When a hot spot wants to be suppressed, the best way is to use another hot spot."
"You are paparazzi, you must have a lot of black material of artists that hasn't been exposed, right?"
Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Shen Ci's face: "Push out a scapegoat to cool down Shen Li's matter. I won't sacrifice innocent people, just find that kind of domestic violence, cheating, drug use, etc., human scum. Do you have it?"
Hou Liang felt cold in his heart when he heard it. Those artist black materials were all to be slowly negotiated with the other party for price. Shen Li's matter didn't get a penny and even lost twenty dollars, and now he had to add a black material artist?
This is a big loss! ===== CHAPTER 718 =====
