"What can we do? What can we do?" He Aying walked around anxiously and said irritably, "Mr. Zhou, please think of a solution quickly."
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "Auntie, are you afraid that you won't win the lawsuit? Or are you really forging documents and embezzling Zhang Damin's money?"
"How is that possible?" He Aying laughed awkwardly.
Zhou Hexuan threatened her and said, "Don't lie in front of me. Tell the truth so that a lawyer can help you with the lawsuit. Otherwise, you are very likely to go to jail."
"Jail?"
He Aying was taken aback, and finally admitted bravely: "Mr. Zhou, the situation at that time was like this. The master of the Zhang family had just passed away, and Zhang Damin alone received an inheritance of more than 100,000 yuan. He spent money like water, eating, drinking and whoring.
If you have all the bets, you will have to finish the family property sooner or later. So..."
Zhou Hexuan sarcastically said: "So you will help him 'save' part of it?"
He Aying said embarrassedly: "It's not much, I just took a few thousand yuan from him. Even if I don't take it, he will squander it all sooner or later. I have to leave a way out for myself, right? Besides, that Zhang Damin has always been
He defrauded our family, A Ruan, of tens of thousands of dollars by eating soft food, and I have already repaid him double the amount I owe him."
Zhou Hexuan was too lazy to listen to her explanation and only warned: "You mother and daughter will live here these days. Don't go anywhere until I resolve the matter."
"Okay, okay, listen to Mr. Zhou," He Aying nodded repeatedly, and then asked guiltily, "I won't go to jail, right?"
"What do you think?" Zhou Hexuan asked with a smile.
He Aying smiled dryly and said: "I believe Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Hexuan got up and walked into the bedroom. Ruan Lingyu was standing in front of the window in a daze, looking out with a sad face.
"Don't be afraid, I will take care of it." Zhou Hexuan patted Ruan Lingyu on the shoulder.
"I'm sorry for causing trouble for you," Ruan Lingyu pointed at the reporters outside, "These people haven't left, how about I go out and explain?"
"That's not necessary," Zhou Hexuan comforted, "You can stay at home and don't think too much. I will solve the matter soon."
"Yeah." Ruan Lingyu responded, but her mood was still not high.
Zhou Hexuan called Yu Peichen and asked her to stay at home with Ruan Lingyu to relieve her boredom, while he took Sun Yongzhen out in the car.
"Mr. Zhou, I heard that Miss Ruan lives here?"
"Mr. Zhou, do you and Miss Ruan truly love each other?"
"Mr. Zhou, do you support polygamy?"
"Mr. Zhou..."
As soon as the car drove out of the gate, a bunch of reporters gathered around it. Zhou Hexuan didn't bother to pay attention at all. He sat in the car with his eyes closed and let the reporters tap on the windows.
…
Hartong Road, Shi Gongguan.
Shi Liangcai gloated and joked: "Mingcheng is indeed a great talent. Your romantic affair has spread throughout Shanghai."
"What's the situation with "The News"?" Zhou Hexuan asked angrily.
Shi Liangcai explained: "Although I am the major shareholder of "The News", I cannot interfere with the content of the "News" reports. I am sorry that there is nothing I can do about the "News"'s distorted reports. I can only say sorry."
"Understood." Zhou Hexuan was a little depressed.
Those who reported relevant news in the past two days were mainly tabloids. Even the slightly influential newspapers had reservations for Zhou Hexuan's sake. Even if they reported it, they did not throw dirty water on Zhou Hexuan.
Only "News", which is the second largest newspaper in circulation in the country, actually discussed the adultery between Zhou Hexuan and Ruan Lingyu in a serious manner, which had a decisive effect of fueling the flames.
Zhou Hexuan asked: "Can't the journalist union we established have no control over this kind of thing?"
"It's difficult, the union has ceased to exist in name only." Shi Liangcai smiled bitterly.
Zhou Hexuan took out a paper bag and said: "Brother Liangcai, this is all true evidence. Please report it truthfully in your "Declaration"."
"Understood." Shi Liangcai smiled.
During the Republic of China, there was no self-media, and the influence of radio stations was not great. The major newspapers and magazines really had the right to speak. Even dictators like Chang Kaishen were deeply wary of the huge power of newspapers and were planning to assassinate Shi Li.
talent.
Playing public opinion offensive with Zhou Hexuan?
"Tianjin News", "Morning News", "Beijing News", "Shanghai Daily", "Nanjing Evening News"... the list can be very long. As soon as Zhou Hexuan called, more than 40 newspapers across the country were willing to help.
Of course, some newspapers took the opportunity to ask for benefits, and Zhou Hexuan just paid them.
Things that can be solved with money are no big deal. After two days, dozens of newspapers across the country will work together to ensure that the direction of public opinion is instantly reversed.
Damage your reputation? Impossible.
Zhou Hexuan even had time to care about other things. He whispered: "Brother Liangcai, you have to be careful. It's best to go north to avoid the limelight."
"What news have you heard?" Shi Liangcai suddenly became serious.
Zhou Hexuan nodded and said: "I have some friends in the Kuomintang's spy system. Chiang Kai-shek has issued a death order, and Dai Li will personally plan to kill you!"
Shi Liangcai clenched his fists in anger: "A dictatorial warrior is harming the country and the people!"
Zhou Hexuan advised: "In terms of reporting, you should take it slow and don't be too aggressive."
In recent years, "Shenbao" has been insisting on reporting progressive news and actively calling for democratic constitutionalism and anti-Japanese national salvation, which has completely angered Chang Kaishen. Moreover, Shi Liangcai has been very close to the Civil Rights Alliance and the Left Alliance, and many of them cannot be published in "Shenbao"
"" published progressive articles, Shi Liangcai also tried every means to arrange for them to be published in other publications.
A certain supplement of "Shen Shen" had become the headquarters of the Left Alliance at this time. More than 20 articles were published just by Lu Xun changing his waistcoat. How could Chang Kaishen tolerate this kind of thing?
Shi Liangcai was smoking a cigarette and thinking hard, and finally he said: "I will consider ways and means and will not deliberately anger the authorities. But some things cannot be compromised, and some news must be reported. This is a matter of principle, and what a Chinese journalist should have
Responsibility."
"I admire your personality." Zhou Hexuan could only say this.
Historically, Shi Liangcai would be assassinated by Kuomintang agents in two months.
"I have an army of millions!"
"I have a million readers!"
This is a tit-for-tat threat between Shi Liangcai and Chang Kaishen. There is no doubt that the one with the gun will win, while the one with the pen can only leave a reputation that will be passed down from generation to generation.
In this regard, Zhou Hexuan can only feel ashamed.
Shi Liangcai was also a newspaperman. Shi Liangcai was in trouble because of state affairs, but Zhou Hexuan was in trouble because of dirty things.
Shi Liangcai smiled and said: "Anyway, thank you Mingcheng for reminding me. I plan to go to Tianjin to avoid the limelight."
"That's good." Zhou Hexuan was very happy.
Yang Xingfo was reminded and dissuaded several times by Zhou Hexuan, but he still refused to restrain himself. As a result, he could not escape the fate of being assassinated, which is sad and respectable. Shi Liangcai was much more tactful, and he also cherished his life, knowing that there was danger.
Under such circumstances, you won't stick your neck out and wait for the secret agents to come and assassinate you.
Zhou Hexuan was very satisfied to be able to save the life of this newspaper king. Under the auspices of Shi Liangcai, "Shenbao" could effectively promote the democratic struggle and effectively publicize anti-Japanese ideas, which was of great benefit to the country and the people.
Great help.
In comparison, Zhou Hexuan's trivial matters are nothing to mention.
Of course, breaking things is also a problem. Zhou Hexuan is not worried about public opinion. He now has to consider deeper issues.
Logically speaking, given the efficiency of the District Court of the Republic of China, Zhou Hexuan would have to wait at least one or two months before receiving the summons. The crux of the matter is that the court issued the summons too quickly, and someone must have given money to the judge behind the scenes.
Zhang Damin is just a small character. Zhou Hexuan can kill him with one finger. He wants to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
Zhou Hexuan thought it was Tang Jishan who was causing trouble, but Boss Tang was indeed wronged. There was someone else who was causing trouble!
