Chapter 506: 493 Swire's 100th floor, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's atmosphere layer!
Swire Group,
Taipan's office,
"Bang~~~~"
"Fuck!"
Merlin looked at the ATV news report, so angry that he picked up his cup and threw it hard at the TV.
With a loud "clatter," a crack instantly appeared on the TV's picture tube screen, and the picture distorted and deformed accordingly.
"Hmph, what 'know shame and then be brave,' they just want to incite the public to deal with us!"
"Our Swire Group has operated in Hong Kong for so many years, how could they bring us down with just a few words!"
Peng Lizhi: "Taipan, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu wants to use public opinion to bring down our Swire Group!"
Merlin sneered: "He thinks he can force us to sell Dragonair shares by relying on this kind of low-class means?"
Peng Lizhi: "Mr. Taipan, we cannot sell Dragonair shares!"
Actually, his secretary suggested to him today to just sell the Dragonair shares directly and calm the conflict with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.
But Peng Lizhi thought about it carefully and felt that this move was inappropriate.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu had prepared for so long, how could a mere Dragonair satisfy him?
His goal must be the Swire Group!
Therefore, Dragonair's shares were no longer that important.
Merlin: "Henry, how is the contact with the media going?!"
Peng Lizhi said apologetically: "I have already arranged for the public relations department to put pressure on those media... but the effect is not very good. Because those media have already taken Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's money, they said that since they took the money, they have to do the work, otherwise they will face Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's retaliation."
Merlin laughed directly in anger.
"They are afraid of Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, are they not afraid of our Swire?!"
"Tell them!"
"Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu can retaliate against them, and we can also retaliate! Do they really think our Swire is a charity?!"
"The people we raise have also been idle for a long time, let them out, and teach those disobedient media a lesson!"
Swire is not a good person either; they also raise a group of people.
Peng Lizhi: "Okay, I'll give the order immediately!"
Merlin: "Also, on Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's side, we cannot always be passively responding, we must find the Five Star Group's flaws!"
Peng Lizhi: "Last time David (Tang Baolin) proposed a commercial espionage plan."
Merlin: "That's fine!"
Peng Lizhi: "Taipan, should we directly dispatch assassins from overseas to kill that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu?"
Merlin was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head: "Not to this step yet... but if Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu bullies people too much, then don't blame me for being impolite!"
Peng Lizhi: "By the way, Taipan, should we respond to ATV's news? Sue ATV?"
Merlin: "............"
Directly silent.
Respond? Sue?
Will it make things even bigger?
But if we do nothing, will the citizens think we are acquiescing?
Finally,
Merlin gritted his teeth. This kind of thing, the materials the other party got were all from a hundred years ago, and he could completely say the other party was faking and slandering.
Anyway, he would just bite the bullet.
Merlin looked at Peng Lizhi: "Tomorrow morning, hold a press conference, and you go host it yourself!"
Peng Lizhi was stunned: "Ah? Me?"
If something goes wrong, wouldn't I be the scapegoat?!
Merlin looked at him coldly: "Why? Not willing?"
Peng Lizhi: "............"
"Yes!"
Merlin: "Also, contact TVB, you talk to Mr. Shaw about cooperation yourself! Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu has ATV, we also need a TV station to support us."
(Mr. Shaw: Don't come over here!)
Downstairs,
Dragonair Chairman's office.
Brightly lit,
"Mr. Guan!" *2
Lu Zhilian and Huang Wenbin were reporting today's harvest to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.
Huang Wenbin felt very honored to be able to do things for Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, so he was active and proactive:
"After screening, it was found that within the last week, Dragonair had seven abnormal large-scale capital transfers. One of them, 8 million Hong Kong dollars, was transferred to an offshore company in Panama that had been established for less than two months and had vague information..."
Lu Zhilian added: "There are also many problems with personnel transfers. Some new employees have forged resumes, but they successfully joined the company and were arranged to core business departments. It is very likely that Cathay inserted people to control key businesses and transfer assets."
Huang Wenbin: "There is also a corrupt executive named Huang Hua, who embezzled more than 8 million Hong Kong dollars. When we were investigating, he had already run away and boarded a plane to San Francisco 4 hours ago..."
Ran to San Francisco?
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was amused.
"Send me a copy of his photo and information later."
"Yes."
The two said three or four items in succession,
Huang Wenbin finally summarized: "These are the problems we found investigating Dragonair today... not many found, but it's only a matter of time. Based on my experience, if we continue to dig deeper, we can dig up more."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled: "You've worked hard."
After sending the two away,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu made an international call to Li Jie in the United States, asking him to arrange for people to meet the plane at San Francisco International Airport.
It's time to let this so-called executive Huang Hua experience the package.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu had just hung up the phone with Li Jie,
When his mobile phone rang.
"Ring, ring, ring~~~~"
"Mr. Guan, I'm very sorry!" The editor-in-chief of the *Oriental Daily News* called, and opened with an apology.
"What's wrong?"
"The Swire Group called our newspaper office to threaten us, saying that if we dare to report it, we will have to bear the consequences."
"What consequences?"
"They said they would burn down our newspaper office."
"Hmm?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu frowned and scolded: "What era is this? Even gangsters have turned over a new leaf, and they are actually threatening to burn down a newspaper office? Is this Swire a gangster?"
*Oriental Daily News* Editor-in-Chief: "............"
Was silenced by Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's words.
Boss Zu, where is your face?
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Give me the bottom line, does this Swire... still have thugs?"
Editor-in-Chief: "I heard they have, but no one has ever seen them. And the materials you gave, Boss Zu, that Swire Group is obviously not a good person. If they really burn down the newspaper office, that would be a huge loss."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said: "Fine, I won't make things difficult for you."
Editor-in-Chief breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Boss Zu!"
Boss Zu is indeed reasonable. Although he often arranges for people to be beaten, it is also because the media reports randomly.
In terms of character, Boss Zu is still tough enough!
After ending this call,
Next, many newspaper offices called, some called the secretariat, and then transferred to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.
These newspaper offices all expressed: they received Swire's warning and dared not report it.
They were all a bit afraid of Swire.
Compared to Boss Li and the others, Swire has more overseas forces, and you don't know how many mercenaries they raise overseas.
In the end, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu did not make things difficult for those newspaper offices.
Subsequently, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu called to ask *Wen Wei Po*, *Ta Kung Pao*, and *New Evening Post*.
The reply from these three newspaper offices was: they were not called.
Obviously, Swire also looks at who they are dealing with and doesn't dare to target the three newspapers belonging to the East's camp.
The predecessor of *New Evening Post* was *Da Wan Bao*, founded in Shanghai in 1929, and resumed publication in Hong Kong on October 5, 1950, as *New Evening Post*.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu called Chicken again, told him about the matter, and asked him to use underworld forces to check where Swire's so-called 'thugs' were.
If they were really found, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu would directly send them to add bricks and tiles to the land reclamation project.
"But this move by Swire... is indeed useful!"
"Without those dozens of newspapers, public opinion will be greatly discounted."
This wave,
Swire is at least on the 100th floor.
Much harder to deal with than Boss Li and the others.
"Is there any way to break the situation?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu thought for a while,
Suddenly,
His eyes lit up.
Got it!
He forgot about Five Star Property!
Five Star Property often distributes flyers when holding events. Can I distribute newspapers?
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu dialed the phone of the waste... the half-step giant realm Fly, who is in charge of the *Five Star Daily*.
Currently, the daily sales volume of *Five Star Daily* is about 200,000 copies, which is definitely in the first tier of sales in Hong Kong.
On one hand, it shares news intelligence with Five Star Property and ATV, and can get a lot of news materials, and the content is enough for citizens to like. Secondly, based on the reputation of the Five Star Group, many citizens are willing to buy it.
Of course,
With ATV around, *Five Star Daily* doesn't seem that important.
"Boss Zu!"
"What are you doing?"
"Dating~~~"
"Ah? Which beauty?"
"Yeah..."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "............"
"I'll give you a task, even if you have to work overtime today, you have to get it done for me."
!
"What task?"
"It's 20:00 now, until tomorrow noon, a total of 16 hours, print 1.5 million copies of the newspaper, and then let Five Star Property distribute them to all of Hong Kong... any problem?"
Fly: "Ah?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said solemnly: "This task is very important!"
What? Important?
If you say so, I'm not sleepy anymore!
Fly patted his chest: "Then there must be no problem! Don't worry, Boss Zu, leave it to me!"
Fly expressed: I waited for 2 years, just to wait for an opportunity. I want to fight for a breath, I want to tell people, I, Fly, am not a waste!
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Good! 1 million copies tomorrow morning... 500,000 copies at noon... distribute them all for me!"
Fly stood at attention on the phone and shouted: "No problem!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "By the way, tell Da Tou, let him send people to focus on the 2 Swire Group shopping malls (Pacific Place, Cityplaza), to distribute newspapers, disgust them as much as you can!"
Fly hehe: "No problem!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu hung up the phone and stretched.
"Let's go!"
Out of the office, he beckoned to Wu Lianqian.
"Go home!"
He took Wu Lianqian and Gao Gang downstairs, got into the black Chevrolet, Ah Xing drove, and headed towards Causeway Bay.
In the car,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked at the night outside.
Suddenly he felt uncomfortable: Damn, they all say let the brothers be cattle and horses, how did I become a cattle and horse myself?
It's already late at night, and I still have to work overtime!
Fuck, I'll give myself three days off tomorrow!
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu decided to tell a cold joke so everyone could be happy together.
"I'll ask you a question..."
"If you guess right, there's a reward."
Gao Gang, Ah Xing, and Wu Lianqian immediately got into the spirit.
"What question?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "What animal has the smallest voice when it's angry?"
Gao Gang, Ah Xing, and Wu Lianqian guessed several in a row, but none were right.
Ah Xing was unconvinced: "Boss Zu, what's the answer?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Gorilla!"
The three said in unison: "Why?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Because when a gorilla is angry, it will knock (quietly)!"
Gao Gang, Ah Xing, Wu Lianqian: "............"
Pfft~~~~~~
20 minutes later,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu returned home, and Sister Ruan Mei took his clothes to wash for him.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Wife, I'll ask you a question, which of Teresa Teng's songs do I like the most?"
Sister Ruan Mei said several song titles in a row.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Wrong."
Sister Ruan Mei: "Then which song do you like the most?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu picked up Sister Ruan Mei and rushed into the bathroom: "What I like the most is 'Sweet (Tian) Honey'!"
Sister Ruan Mei: "???"
On Ah Xing's side,
After returning home, Ah Xing started pulling Fang Min, full of interest.
"Ah Min, I'll ask you a question..."
"What animal has the smallest voice when it's angry?"
A new day,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, who didn't want to be a cattle or horse, decided to give himself 4 days off... well, he added another day for himself.
Early in the morning,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu pulled Sister Ruan Mei's soft little hand and went downstairs for breakfast.
First, he glanced at the newspaper stand.
Only *Ta Kung Pao*, *Wen Wei Po*, *New Evening Post*, and *Five Star Daily* reported on the black history of the Swire Group.
(*New Evening Post*, although retaining the name "Evening Post," is actually published in the morning like a morning paper.)
The two came to a newly opened "Mak's Noodle," this wonton claims to be the king of Guangzhou wontons. The first Mak's Noodle was opened on Wellington Street in Central in 1968, and now this one in Causeway Bay is the third one.
The decoration is a bit more high-end than the surrounding ones.
"Mr. Guan, Mrs. Guan, welcome!"
Seeing Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, the boss enthusiastically greeted him quickly.
At this time,
The TV on the wall was playing ATV's morning news, still repeatedly reporting Swire's crimes.
And at the same time,
In all Five Star Property branches in Hong Kong, the building managers distributed a stack of *Five Star Daily* newspapers and went upstairs to distribute them door to door.
"Swire's crimes are too numerous to record!"
"Chinese nation, do not forget national humiliation!"
"Boycott Swire, unite as one!"
The propaganda sounds came one after another, and copies of the newspaper were passed out, also passing on the indignation and determination to boycott the Swire Group's evil deeds.
Sheung Wan,
A white-collar worker from the Swire Group received a newspaper.
He went downstairs calmly.
Got into a taxi, flew to Swire House, and then quickly put the newspaper in front of his superior, and then reported the matter in detail.
Coincidentally,
Many Swire employees, after receiving the newspaper, took it back to the group and reported it to their superiors.
Soon, the news reached the Taipan's office.
Merlin looked at the newspaper, still thinking he had finally suppressed Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu once.
As a result, when this news was passed over, Merlin exploded directly!
"Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, you bully people too much!"
But it wasn't over yet,
By 10 o'clock,
Outside the two most important shopping malls of the Swire Group (Pacific Place, Cityplaza), a large number of people distributing newspapers appeared.
"... do not forget national humiliation!"
"Boycott Swire..."
The slogans were shouted loudly.
Making a large number of citizens preparing to come shopping leave one after another!
Merlin scolded the person in charge of the shopping mall on the other end of the phone angrily:
"You idiots, can't you call the police?"
As a result, both people in charge replied: "We called the police, and the police team came, but when they found out it was Five Star Property, they all withdrew, saying it was legal and reasonable..."
Merlin was so angry he kicked the table!
Fuck!
Forgot that the police force are all Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's people!
Hong Kong today—it's too dark!
