Chapter 2461
Several people were chatting in the office, but in fact, there was nothing important to talk about. It was mainly about the list of people eating empty pay and the conversation with Zhao Jiming, which was just a few words.
Therefore, Zhou Andong didn't rush people away, and Dai Weimin and Liu Lijuan didn't have any intention of leaving. It was mainly because only at the factory director's place could their hearts calm down.
After all, their opponents were not Shi Guoqiang and Hu Dajun, but the Yin family. What made them feel even more pressured was that the one coming down to inspect tomorrow was Sun Baocun, the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Although they knew very well that the factory director and the secretary had made full preparations to deal with various situations, at this critical moment, their moods still couldn't calm down, and their hearts were full of trepidation; the enemy was simply too strong.
Gu Bing sat leisurely with his legs crossed, leaning against the sofa, with a cigarette in his mouth, his hands spread out casually, resting on the back of the sofa: "Now everything is ready, just waiting for the wind."
Zhou Andong slowly turned his chair and cast his gaze toward the increasingly gloomy sky outside the window. He stared at the lead-gray clouds and slowly stood up: "Tomorrow will be a good day."
"Ding-a-ling..." The phone on the desk suddenly rang, which sounded very harsh in the very quiet office.
Zhou Andong looked up at the quartz clock hanging on the wall. The hour hand had just passed nine o'clock, and it was ten-thirty in Japan for the signing. And Japan's time difference was one hour ahead of the country, so this phone call was very likely from Yuan Wanqi.
"Ding-a-ling..."
The phone ringing continued to sound in the office. Dai Weimin, Liu Lijuan, and Gu Bing all looked at Zhou Andong with confusion. Why didn't he answer the phone?
The phone rang for more than ten seconds before Zhou Andong reached out and grabbed the phone: "I am Zhou Andong, who is this?"
Yuan Wanqi's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Boss, there are twenty minutes left before the signing ceremony begins, do you have any instructions?"
A smile appeared on Zhou Andong's face: "My request is very simple, and that is that tomorrow morning, the news of Zhou Andong acquiring Sony Entertainment can appear on the front page of every mainstream media in Xiangjiang."
"That's absolutely no problem!" Yuan Wanqi said: "More than thirty media outlets in Xiangjiang have arrived at the signing ceremony. In addition, major domestic news media stationed in Japan, such as Xinhua News Agency, People's Daily, CCTV, etc., have also arrived at the venue."
Speaking of this, Yuan Wanqi's voice became slightly trembling, as if she couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart: "Moreover, international media with extensive influence such as The Huaerjie Journal, The New York Times, The Guardian, Reuters, Associated Press, Agence France-Presse, etc., have also sent reporter teams to participate in this signing ceremony."
Yuan Wanqi took a deep breath and then used a tone of near reverence: "Boss, tomorrow, your name will resound throughout the world!"
Zhou Andong looked very indifferent and said: "It's useless for just my name to resound throughout the world, you need to let the whole world clearly understand the relationship between Xurishang Iced Black Tea, Very Cola, and me, Zhou Andong."
"You can rest assured about this!" Yuan Wanqi said: "There will definitely be no problem with the Xiangjiang media, I have already communicated with them." Yuan Wanqi's voice revealed confidence and composure: "As for the domestic media, there is no need for me to communicate with them at all, I believe they know how to report it.
And for international well-known media like The Huaerjie Journal and The New York Times, after the signing is completed, I will personally talk to them to ensure that the people of the world can understand the most real you."
Zhou Andong smiled very satisfactorily, then sat slowly in his chair: "Don't be stingy with that little tea money, including domestic media reporters, even if they are our own people, if you want people to say good things, you can't be too stingy.
After all, Xurishang will be officially listed in five days. As long as the reporters are capable, the Xiangjiang stock investors will be capable, and Xurishang's stock price will naturally be capable."
"I understand!" Yuan Wanqi looked at the time: "It's about time, I should go to the venue, and I will report to you after it ends."
"That's it then!" Zhou Andong put down the phone, then picked up a cigarette and lit it.
………………………………
Tokyo Gajoen Hotel is one of the most historic hotels in Japan. Its history can be traced back to 1928. It can be described as having experienced the vicissitudes of time, but it still shines brightly and is known as the Dragon Palace of the Showa era.
This hotel is not only a landmark building in Tokyo but also an important symbol of Japanese culture and the only existing wooden building. Stepping into the hotel is like traveling through a time tunnel, returning to that era full of romance and elegance.
And today, this place will witness a grand event that will attract worldwide attention, and that is the acquisition signing ceremony of Sony Entertainment. This news is like a heavy bomb, setting off a huge wave in the entertainment industry. Major media outlets have heard the news and have sent reporters to report on this historic moment.
At this time, in the business banquet hall of the Gajoen Hotel, people are moving. The five or six hundred square meter space is full of people, a black mass, and except for the security personnel, almost all of them are reporters from all over the world.
They are busy debugging equipment, making final preparations for the upcoming signing ceremony. However, there are quite a few Japanese reporters inside, and it seems they are very unhappy, with faces that are terribly gloomy.
"Hey!" A young man standing in the front suddenly let out a light laugh, and then immediately closed his mouth. But it was already too late, and he was heard by a girl beside him: "Master, what are you laughing at?"
The young man tilted his head to look at his little apprentice, only to see the little girl's eyes rolling around, but her face revealed a silly smile.
"Why are you everywhere?" The young man's tone was full of blame, but there was thick love in his eyes.
"Oh my!" The little girl said coquettishly: "You just hurry up and tell me, Master." As she spoke, she gently shook the young man's arm, with an attitude of not giving up until she got the answer.
The young man is a senior reporter for Xinhua News Agency, and the little girl is an intern reporter, which can also prove how hard the little girl's background is, being sent to Japan while still an intern.
"Look at the faces of those little devils, aren't they very wonderful?" The young man smiled and slightly raised his chin toward the little devils not far away.
Hearing this, the little girl followed the direction pointed by the young man and looked. Sure enough, the faces of those little devils were very ugly, and their faces were pulled very long, like shoe-pullers.
"Sony is the pride in the hearts of the Japanese. Now that Sony Entertainment is acquired, they must find it difficult to accept this fact."
The young man smiled lightly, "Difficult to accept, they have to accept it. This is reality, no one can change it."
"Zhou Andong is my super hero!" The little girl raised her fist excitedly and waved it hard in the air: "Master, if there is a chance to interview Zhou Andong in the future, you must bring me along."
The young man nodded, very readily agreeing: "Okay, if there is really a chance to interview Zhou Andong in the future, I will definitely bring you along."
Hearing this, a flash of surprise flashed in the little girl's eyes, and she hurriedly said: "Master, you can't lie to me!"
The young man rolled his eyes at the little girl: "When have I ever lied to you?"
Just at this moment, the originally somewhat noisy banquet hall suddenly became quiet. The little girl curiously looked up, only to see Yuan Wanqi, the general manager of Qiudongfang, and Yoshioka Kunihiko, the vice president of Sony, walk into the banquet hall.
Their teams followed closely behind them, and the two sides maintained a certain distance, forming a clear dividing line, which could be described as distinct walls.
