~13 min read 2,428 words

Noon,

Peninsula Hotel.

Inside an elegant and retro private room.

Director Guan Zu, with Ruan Mei, was eating with Tycoon Lin and Tycoon Lin's wife.

2 hours ago, Tan Tan Meili, according to Director Guan Zu's request, contacted the program supervisor, found Tycoon Lin, and wanted to invite Tycoon Lin to dinner together.

Then Tycoon Lin gave face, turning it into a "family banquet".

So it turned into Tycoon Lin's wife and Ruan Mei eating and chatting, and Director Guan Zu talking business with Tycoon Lin.

This year Tycoon Lin was already 77 years old, but his spirit was good, his appetite was good, eating a few bites from time to time, and then chatting with Director Guan Zu about food.

"Teochew diet, pays attention to a 'fresh' word, and the best way to reflect this is our Teochew seafood."

"Especially this Teochew steamed fish, choosing fresh sea fish, paired with green onion, ginger, garlic, and special sauce, the steamed fish meat is fresh, tender, and smooth, the soup is extremely delicious, every bite makes people have endless aftertaste."

He picked up a piece of fish meat, tasted it,

"Before I was 16, I grew up in Teochew, now I still remember the taste at that time..."

"There is another dish, the pride of our Teochew people—Teochew braised goose. Choosing fat goose meat, carefully braised, the meat is fresh, tender, and juicy..."

"Pity, now my teeth are not good, can't eat braised goose, you can taste more..."

Director Guan Zu ate a few bites, then praised it endlessly.

Tycoon Lin ate another bite of fresh soup kway teow: "This kway teow, can also be considered one of the Teochew delicacies, my teeth are not good now, what I eat more now is this, fresh, soft, and tender rice noodles, delicious seafood, and special sauce..."

Following Tycoon Lin's narration, the waiter served several exquisite Teochew dishes one after another...

Director Guan Zu didn't study these much usually, Tycoon Lin could be considered to have given him a very good popular science.

Eating almost done, Tycoon Lin put down his chopsticks and started talking about business.

"During this period, I still have to thank your "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire", making our ATV finally not have to be suppressed by TVB all the time."

"You're welcome, we are win-win cooperation."

"No, no, no, our ATV benefits more... From this program, it can be seen that you, Ah Zu, are a person who cares about the motherland."

Director Guan Zu hurriedly humbled: "Can't compare to you, Tycoon Lin."

Tycoon Lin did a lot of charity in the mainland, in his hometown of Teochew, Tycoon Lin's reputation was also much greater than Boss Li's, and there were many Tycoon Lin primary schools, middle schools, exhibition centers, etc.

However, it was still not as powerful as Tycoon Shaw, Tycoon Shaw built Shaw buildings nationwide.

Tycoon Lin chatted about charity again, blowing each other.

Finally, when the food was almost finished, Tycoon Lin finally talked about the news blockade.

"This matter, it was also ordered by my incompetent youngest son, I have already educated him, alas, I still hope you can be friends with him."

Actually, Tycoon Lin could completely say it was done by the news supervisor, but he couldn't figure out Director Guan Zu, this person. After meeting today, he felt Director Guan Zu was extraordinary and might have great achievements in the future.

So, directly saying it was done by his son, admitting the mistake first, and Director Guan Zu wouldn't be embarrassed to turn over old accounts in the future.

If it wasn't clarified this time, there would always be gaps in the future, especially since both sons were incompetent, making him very headache-prone. If Director Guan Zu caught a chance to teach them a lesson, it would be ugly.

"Tycoon Lin is polite." Director Guan Zu gave face, "I also hope to be friends with Young Master Lin, I, Director Guan Zu, love making friends the most."

Tycoon Lin was very happy, he was old, didn't want to have disputes, Director Guan Zu could give him face, not care, it was a good thing.

"Then in the afternoon, the ATV news department will send a host to you to conduct an interview... then broadcast on the news at 19:00, help you clarify, the news is 30 minutes in total, but can be delayed to 40 minutes, giving you 20 minutes."

This treatment was too high.

Director Guan Zu raised his cup: "Thank you, Mr. Lin!"

Afternoon,

A red Toyota stopped downstairs of the Five-Star company.

A woman with short curly hair, wearing a red dress, followed by a fat reporter, got out of the car.

"This is the Five-Star company."

"Later we have to interview Mr. Director Guan Zu, this is a task personally handed over by the boss, we must not be careless."

"And you also heard, even our news supervisor was directly removed, you should know how big the matter is."

"Don't worry, Sister Yi!"

The person who came was exactly ATV's Huang Huang Jieyi. (From "The Untouchable Madness")

ATV's reporter flower.

She had many pursuers, including a large number of rich young masters, lawyers, doctors, and elites from all walks of life.

Huang Huang Jieyi had participated in the interview with Director Guan Zu before, so she could be considered to know him, just not familiar.

Entered the Five-Star company,

Under the guidance of the front desk waiter, came to Director Guan Zu's office.

Knocked on the door,

"Boss, the ATV reporter is here."

"Come in."

As soon as Huang Huang Jieyi entered, she saw Director Guan Zu sitting at the office desk, working.

Then she saw the couplet hanging on the wall behind Director Guan Zu.

Obey the law!

Be kind to others!

Open and aboveboard!

"Slut...?"

The fat photographer behind Huang Huang Jieyi couldn't help but say.

Huang Huang Jieyi felt so shameful, hurriedly said: "Shut up, this is 'Open and aboveboard'!"

Fat photographer: "Ah??"

Director Guan Zu stood up at this time, came to Huang Huang Jieyi and the fat man's side: "Hahaha~~~ Welcome Miss Huang, and this gentleman, come to my place... please sit!"

Fang Ting came in with a teapot to make tea at this time. After Director Guan Zu invited the two to sit down: "Thank you very much for coming today, the reports of many newspapers this morning, I think both of you have seen."

Huang Huang Jieyi nodded: "Seen it, it looks like it was discussed, splashing dirty water on Mr. Director Guan together."

Director Guan Zu sighed: "Now before it officially starts, I can reveal the real inside story to you, to facilitate the interview later."

Huang Huang Jieyi sat upright: "Mr. Director Guan, please speak."

Director Guan Zu: "You probably should know what I did during the Shantou Street fire last year, right?"

Huang Huang Jieyi nodded: "I know this matter, because I was at the scene at the time."

Director Guan Zu: "That's good, at first the Li family wanted to cover up the cause of the fire, attributing the cause of the fire to an old man who was burned to death, but we all know that it was the cable bridge of the power company that aged, caught fire, and then ignited the entire Shantou Street. So, at first, the Li family didn't want to take responsibility, didn't want to pay the huge loss of hundreds of millions. As a result, it triggered protests by thousands of citizens, and I was fortunate to be pushed as their negotiation representative, successfully obtaining 500 million in compensation from the Li family."

Huang Huang Jieyi and the fat man looked with awe.

That was 500 million, being able to take so much from Li Chaoren's mouth, the effort of this man in front of him can be imagined.

!.

"And this time, the forced demolition problem..."

Director Guan Zu recounted in detail, including the various means of forced demolition and eviction encountered by residents, Manager Wang Bo eating with underworld forces Gao Lao and Fourth Uncle, including the process of Director Guan Zu eating with Young Master Li.

"Finally, I negotiated from 60 million to 120 million."

"And just yesterday, all the newspapers in Hong Kong reported my good deeds, all front-page headlines."

"But, I didn't greet any newspaper media at all!"

"The front-page headlines suddenly all became mine."

"I suspect someone wants to praise-to-kill me."

"And today's newspaper came out, proving my guess was right, someone wants to praise-to-kill me, how hard they praised me yesterday, how hard I will fall today."

Huang Huang Jieyi couldn't believe it: "Mr. Director Guan, you mean, the Li family is dealing with you?"

Director Guan Zu "bitterly smiled": "Now that the interview hasn't started yet, so I can tell you definitely, I believe it is the Li family because I caused them huge losses twice, so they are looking for trouble for me!"

"And today, I found many media newspapers, they all said they wouldn't accept my clarification, and your TV station, as well as TVB, all said they wouldn't accept my clarification request... which means, I was blocked by the news."

"Who has such great ability? And has such a big grudge with me? The only possibility is the Li family!"

Huang Huang Jieyi and the fat photographer listened, secretly shocked.

Didn't expect it to be this inside story.

But everything is connected, the logic is clear, reasonable and well-founded.

Is this news blockade method something an ordinary person can do? Definitely only a force like the Li family can do it.

Director Guan Zu actually wanted to frame the ICAC and tax bureau checking him last time on the Li family at first, but after thinking about it, in terms of time, it would make the event logic a bit less smooth, so he gave up.

Huang Huang Jieyi was serious: "Mr. Director Guan, this time the boss asked us to cooperate with you for the interview. To be safe, we will finalize the interview content first, and then conduct the interview, how about that?"

Director Guan Zu nodded, said to Fang Ting: "Look, this is called professional!"

Soon,

Both sides started finalizing the interview content, Director Guan Zu also called Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei over, and the interview content also needed him to look over, to avoid being caught by the Li family's imperial lawyer team.

Half an hour later, the interview officially started.

The first half basically followed what Director Guan Zu said earlier.

The second half was Director Guan Zu showing evidence, proving that he didn't take any hard work fee for the 120 million, but gave it all to the relocated residents.

1 hour later, the interview ended.

Then Councilor Jian Councilor Jian Aowei, who rushed over, looked at it, and finally determined there was no problem.

At this time it was 16:00, 3 hours away from 19:00.

"Mr. Director Guan, today's interview ends here, according to the boss's instructions, the interview content will be broadcast on the evening news at 19:00."

"In addition, later we will interview the relocated residents and the residents of Shantou Street, hope you can help arrange manpower..."

"These interview contents will be made into a special topic for special reporting."

"This idea is very good!" Director Guan Zu nodded with satisfaction, "Don't worry, I will arrange manpower to take you there."

No matter how much he says, it's not as good as the residents saying he is good in person.

In a flash,

Night 19:00.

ATV news spent 20 minutes directly, conducting a selected report on Director Guan Zu's interview.

"Today, I think all Hong Kong citizens have seen today's newspapers, most newspapers uniformly reported one thing: famous philanthropist Mr. Director Guan blackmailed the Li family, embezzled money, and deceived the elderly..."

"And today, our reporter specially interviewed Mr. Director Guan to understand this matter from another angle..."

(Screen: Director Guan Zu sitting on the sofa, full of righteousness.)

"These news newspapers are a premeditated slander against me!"

"I did get 120 million in demolition fees from the Li family, but I didn't take a single cent of hard work fee myself, but gave the 120 million completely to all the residents."

"I have entrusted a lawyer to sue 28 media that slandered me, at the latest in a week, see you in court!"

Reporter Huang Huang Jieyi: "Mr. Director Guan, you said those media slandered you, you gave all 120 million to the residents, do you have evidence to prove it?"

Director Guan Zu laughed: "Naturally! I have complete bank transfer records, as well as the signatures and fingerprints of every household, these will be published in tomorrow's "Five-Star Daily". The originals will be sent to the court to become complete evidence for suing 28 media."

Director Guan Zu spoke with sonorous force, looking absolutely not like lying.

Then, reporter Huang Huang Jieyi interviewed: "Mr. Director Guan, I heard that this time you encountered a news blockade, is it true?"

In front of the camera, Director Guan Zu was indignant: "It's true, when I saw the news, I first time tried to find media to clarify, but major newspaper offices were unwilling to publish my interview, and TVB also rejected my clarification request with an almost shameless reason, and ATV also rejected it... I realized, I was blocked."

"Fortunately, ATV boss Mr. Lin is a reasonable person, after learning about my situation, he agreed to interview me, clarify the facts, and removed the news supervisor who refused my interview. Here I want to thank Mr. Lin for his righteousness!"

Reporter Huang Huang Jieyi interviewed at this time: "Then Mr. Director Guan, who do you think is most likely to slander and block your news on such a large scale?"

Director Guan Zu was heavy: "I don't have conclusive evidence to prove who it is, but being able to connect so many media newspapers and two major TV stations to block me, this is definitely not an ordinary person, it should be a person with huge power. And I, Director Guan Zu, have always been kind to others, if I offended anyone, the only one I offended is the Li family."

"Of course, I first declare that the Li family is not necessarily the mastermind. Secondly, I declare that everything I say is my speculation from logic, and there is no real evidence to prove that it is the Li family who did it."
