Recently, People's Daily Online published an article titled "The Bottom Line of We-Media People", which stated:
In recent years, new media has developed rapidly, and some self-media have grown wildly. In order to attract eyeballs and increase traffic, they have made things out of nothing and grafted new ideas onto others. It can be said that they have exhausted all means.
Those self-media rumor makers who cross the legal red line and tear down the moral bottom line, Internet celebrities who spread rumors and infringe others' rights, and illegal operators who slander competitors through rumors should be severely punished in accordance with the law!
Since the beginning of this year, there have been malicious slanders such as "entrepreneurs were arrested" and "entrepreneurs' children confessed their love" to trumped-up rumors such as "celebrity cheating" and "celebrity pregnancy".
When it comes to institutional reforms, rumors involving the military and the police are making waves, causing great distress to the parties involved and having a negative impact on society.
Rumors spread everywhere and lies deceive people's minds. This is unacceptable in any society governed by the rule of law...
After People's Daily Online published this article, relevant departments took immediate action.
Penguin, Toutiao, Sina and other online media organizations also cooperated and blocked relevant accounts.
Unfortunately, Huxiu.com was interviewed by relevant departments and fined 1 million yuan.
Subsequently, other media accounts on Huxiu.com except Penguin, including Toutiao account and Weibo account, were also blocked.
In addition to Huxiu.com, there are also a lot of self-media accounts that have suffered bad luck.
These self-media people who publish false articles through various new media accounts such as WeChat official accounts have been fined, their accounts have been banned, and some people have even been invited to drink tea.
Countless netizens applauded and applauded, putting an end to the bad habits of self-media.
"It's great, there are a lot less headline-making news! The news can now be viewed as normal."
"It should have been taken care of a long time ago. I post stupid articles all day long to try to impress the public!"
"It is also recommended to be careful about health care articles. They are all brainwashing the elderly. My mother's circle of friends shares these every day!"
"As a self-media practitioner, I applaud this action. We cannot ruin the reputation of the entire industry just because of a piece of mouse shit!"
"As an entrepreneur who has been framed and slandered by competitors using self-media soft articles, I have reported the case to the public security organs, hoping that we can get justice."
…
Li Min sat dejectedly in his office, browsing the news on the Internet, shouting and killing "bad self-media".
Looking at the certificates of honor and trophies placed in the office cabinet, Li Min felt that life was so magical.
Previously, Huxiu.com was still an outstanding entrepreneurial media in China, winning various certificates and awards.
Today's Huxiu is a bad name in the industry and even in society as a whole.
First, I was boycotted and blocked by thousands of Internet companies, then my account was blocked by Penguin, and then I was interviewed and fined by relevant departments.
After the fine was paid, Li Min found that the entire industry no longer had a foothold.
For a media company that has been fined 1 million yuan by relevant authorities, who would dare to accept an interview with you?
"Mr. Li~"
The assistant walked into the office and looked at the listless boss lying on the chair. He was very moved by how high-spirited Mr. Li used to be and how he looked like a domineering female president.
But now, with messy hair and no makeup, she looks like a low-class woman.
"You haven't left yet?"
Li Minxun glanced at his assistant. This girl has been following him since the beginning of his business. From an intern to the current capable professional elite, the progress has been quite big.
"Mr. Li, I won't leave."
The assistant looked at Li Min like a little fangirl and said: "Huxiu.com can't continue to operate, so let's go to another industry and start over."
Li Min forced out a smile, but said in her heart, you are still too young, starting a business is not as easy as you think.
I fell down this time, and it was extremely difficult to get up again.
"Where are the others?"
The assistant smiled coldly, "Those people have already run away! When you were interviewed by the relevant departments, most of them applied for resignation.
There are also some people who left after other platforms blocked our accounts."
"Why!"
Li Min took a long breath and said with a wry smile: "Let them go. When a tree falls, the monkeys scatter, and when the wall falls, everyone pushes them away. This is normal."
"But Mr. Li, you usually treat them well! Some of them are veterans who started their own business and followed you. They just left without even saying hello. Is that decent?"
Li Min shook his head, "It's okay if you don't say hello! I feel sorry for them. Let's get together and part ways!"
"What are your plans?" Li Min asked the assistant.
"I don't know," the assistant shook his head, "I just want to follow you! You have taught me a lot over the years. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am now."
Li Min felt warm in his heart and asked: "But what if I make you lose your job now?"
"I don't blame Mr. Li," the assistant shook his head like a rattle, "I just hate that I don't have the ability to do anything for you."
"Okay! Have you decided? Are you sure you want to follow me?" Li Min asked, staring at the assistant.
"I'm sure!" the assistant said without hesitation.
"good!"
Li Min took out his mobile phone and prepared to make a call.
The assistant saw that Li Min was about to make a call and was about to leave the office to avoid it. But Li Min stopped him, "Don't leave, let's listen together!"
After dialing Pang Lei's number, Li Min turned on the speakerphone and said with a smile: "Mr. Pang, this time I will break to pieces for Ah Li and die!"
A glint flashed in the assistant's eyes. He didn't expect that Ahri was behind this incident, and Mr. Li was just Ahri's gun.
"Mr. Li, I deeply sympathize and regret what happened to you!"
Li Min sneered, I fought for Ah Li, and now my career is completely ruined, in exchange for such a sentence?
"Mr. Pang, I'm completely confused now! There are seniors and juniors in the capital, and I don't know how to survive?"
Pang Lei said with a smile: "Mr. Li, you are kidding. After all, you are also a top student at the National People's Congress and have more than ten years of experience in the media industry. How can you find a decent job!"
"Decent job?"
Li Min said coldly: "With the fine and industry ban, do you think I can still gain a foothold in the media industry?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't stay in Beijing, the smog is too serious. Isn't it popular now to escape from "Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou"? It's also good to go back to your hometown to grow vegetables and retreat to the countryside!"
Li Min's eyes were filled with anger. After using me, he just wanted to throw me away as trash?
Is it that easy?
"Mr. Pang, I don't want to start a business anymore. Can you arrange a position for me in Ahli?"
Pang Lei frowned and said, "That's not good! You just closed the company and came to work at Ali. How will the outside world interpret our relationship?"
A trace of sadness flashed through Li Min's heart. This is the end of being a chess piece. Even the master despises you for being a stinky person.
"I'm at the end of my rope! If you don't give me a way to survive, then I have no choice but to go find Zhang Yida."
"What do you want to do?" Pang Lei couldn't sit still. This stupid woman should not do anything stupid.
The situation finally calmed down, but we can't let anything happen again.
"I just want to find a stable job! Apart from Ahri, no company would want me."
Pang Lei thought for a while and said, "Yes, but you can't join the job now. Just wait for half a year! Your salary will be paid as usual."
"I want the M5 rank!"
Pang Lei sarcastically said: "M5 is already Ahri's senior director, do you think you will be given an outsider who has not made any achievements yet?"
"I don't think I've accomplished anything, right? I used my company to help Ahri complete the mission. Mr. Pang, do you think I made a big sacrifice?"
Pang Lei thought for a while and said: "It's definitely not possible to start with M5 at the beginning. Let's go with M3 first. I will give you a greeting below and upgrade you to one level in one year and upgrade you to M5 in two years."
Li Min still wanted to bargain, but was interrupted by Pang Lei: "My authority is only so great, I can only go so far!"
Li Min considered that he was like a lost dog now, so he gritted his teeth and responded.
"By the way, I also have an assistant. Let's arrange an M2 for her!"
When Pang Lei heard this, she scolded: "Are you done yet? You still have to take care of your family when you go to work."
"She has very good abilities. She has been with me for four years and she still refuses to leave me until now. I must give her an explanation."
Pang Lei was also worried that Li Min would get into trouble again, so she replied: "Okay! That's it for now!"
When the assistant heard this, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
She has heard of Ahri's M2, which is the second level of management and has an annual salary of at least three to five million, which is higher than her salary at Huxiu.com.
Moreover, Ahri is a big platform and there will be room for growth in the future!
When everyone else was leaving, she also considered whether to leave.
After some hesitation, she decided to wait because she believed that since Mr. Li dared to attack Zhang Yida, he would never do it without backing.
Now, as expected, the bet was successful.
"You should come to Lin'an early. If you're late, I won't have the chance to help you make arrangements!"
Li Min smelled something wrong and asked, "Why?"
Pang Lei thought about it and decided to tell her, "Not only will you get punished, but I will also be punished.
After a while, I will go to Southeast Asia, which is considered a relegation!
So don’t ask too much of me. I can’t even protect myself now, so the most I can do is arrange for you to join Ahri.”
After hanging up the phone from Pang Lei, Li Min smiled and said to his assistant: "It's all arranged. Come with me to Ali!"
The assistant was a little confused and asked: "Mr. Li, why don't you let Ahli invest another amount of money in you to start your own business?"
“What business should I start?”
Li Min gave a wry smile, "I have always been in the media and know nothing about other industries.
Besides, if Zhang Yida wants to take revenge on me, only Ah Li can protect me."
The assistant nodded. It seemed that Mr. Li was very good at seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
…
On a flight to the United States.
Zhang Yida asked Ding Siyao, who was sitting next to him: "Have you finished the road show?"
A trace of tiredness flashed across Ding Siyao's face, and she nodded and said, "It's all done! You just need to be responsible for ringing the bell!"
Zhang Yida smiled and said, "Thank you for the hard work this time! I mainly got into trouble at home and couldn't leave at all."
"It's nothing," Ding Siyao waved her hand, "It's just a pity that Barclays' acquisition can only be postponed after the listing."
"If you haven't caught up, you haven't caught up! Good things come from being busy."
Zhang Yida asked again: "What step has it taken so far?"
"The second round of bidding is already underway! DBS Bank, Nomura Securities, Overseas Chinese Bank and United Overseas Bank are all interested in Barclays' wealth management business in Singapore and Hong Kong."
Zhang Yida nodded, "The competition is indeed great! But we can't give up. This is an opportunity for Yimin Wealth to go international.
Even if the price is higher, we must win this acquisition.”
Ding Siyao responded: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, we will definitely do our best."
