Master of the Flower City

Chapter 258: 258 The Hand of Control

Views:

The Hong Kong region has been affected by the financial crisis in recent years, and has gradually receded from the glory of the "Four Asian Little Dragons" that year. The brain drain in Hong Kong has become a social phenomenon. Many local talents have been transferred to Singapore and even Australia and other directions. The SAR "government" In recent years, it has set its sights on the Mainland and used various preferential policies to attract cutting-edge Mainlanders to take root in Hong Kong.

The most obvious example seen by the outside world is the athletes. Many mainland players who were not selected for the national team have signed in to Hong Kong. In fact, they are more financial and cultural talents. Due to the many restrictions in the mainland, many of them are in Hong Kong. The new generation who have returned from studying abroad have difficulty integrating into the mainland environment due to Western education, and Hong Kong has naturally become their new base.

Yang Can was a little bit stunned by Tang William’s words, but immediately clarified the reality, shook his head and smiled: "Thank you, Minister Tang, for your kindness, but I can only live up to your invitation. I wandered off for a while. I know that my home is in Nanshi, and my roots are also in Nanshi."

Many people now have a view that the moon outside is rounder than their hometown, and they look forward to those prosperous and fashionable metropolises that are far better than their living environment, and feel that they must go outside when they have a future, so that they can live. It's wonderful.

Yang Can thought about it this way. When he was performing his missions in those years, he was "fascinated" by the splendor of the Kremlin, the cosmopolitan atmosphere of New York, and even the craziest nightlife of Kabukicho in Tokyo, but that's how people are. , Once you see the world outside, you will understand that something is condensed in the blood "liquid".

I still remember working with fbi in the United States when protecting a certain important person in New York. He lived in Manhattan for a month. He picked up the phone every day and it was Hello. Suddenly one day he heard "Hello." and I didn't know in my heart. How excited I am to meet a Chinese-speaking person on the street, and I will naturally chat with him. Just seeing the five-star red flag will make his blood boil, there is no reason but he will have this reaction. Perhaps it is indeed very convenient to include the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region to give him a new identity, and he will receive more support from the policy side, but this is not his style.

Seeing Yang Can leaving with the wine glass, the deputy next to Tang William looked a little puzzled, and couldn't help muttering to his chief:

"This mainlander is really weird. Since we want to engage in cultural industries, where is Hong Kong better in China? If it weren't for our "government" to select his movie as a promotional film this time, how could he have filmed in so many places."

Seeing Don William’s disapproval of laughter and silence, the deputy still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: "Sir, I still don’t understand. He is not just a media player, and he is so polite to him, "the government." To support him so much and to recruit him to join Hong Kong, is it too much value for him?"

"Too much value?" Tang William narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Can's straight back: "It is not that I value him, but Chief Zeng."

"Chief Zeng?" The man was taken aback for a moment.

"I don't know the specific situation too well." William Tang smiled and said: "However, the results achieved by the top media this time are not our support for him, but he won it himself, in the "government" *** meeting. His film was approved by unanimous votes. Even Lao Wang and Lao Li who do not like to support the entertainment industry voted for it. I am afraid that the energy behind him is not what you can imagine."

After speaking, he patted his deputy on the shoulder and pointed at him with a smile: "You, remember that you can't look at the surface in everything. In this world, there is no overnight fame and overnight success. Anyone seems to succeed by accident. There is an inevitability behind it, never underestimate that person, and don't easily conflict with him."

The banquet was going on, but Yang Can noticed a lot of unfamiliar youthful and beautiful faces. The skins of a few young girls in their twenties were full of vigor and brilliance. When they shuttled between the crowd at the reception, the laughter from time to time was extremely fascinating. People noticed, Han Ting ran like a butterfly and took Yang Can's hand affectionately: "Mr. Yang, let's go dancing."

Last time Han Ting was crying and crying, it couldn’t overlap with the glorious face image now. I remember that after he was rescued from the water, this girl didn’t know how much she was afraid of herself, but now it’s fine. I know after filming. I am easy-going and dare to be as big or small as myself.

"No, I don't have the time to talk nonsense with you." After Yang Can refused, he pulled Han Ting over and pointed to the girls and asked: "You brought this all, don't you want to learn from Reisa to become a snakehead group? But the influence is not good..." My own experience of fooling around with Reza on the boat made Yang Can quite lack of confidence when he said this.

"Mr. Yang, I'm so inferior in your mind?" Han Ting gave Yang Can angrily, "These are all my college girls. I am now an actor. If I make some money, let me They come to Hong Kong to have fun, and meet friends in the media industry by the way, so that they can get some performance opportunities. Didn't you say that we can all bring friends today."

It turned out that this Han Ting was loyal to others, and she finally made her head. She invited all her close classmates in school to celebrate in Hong Kong, and let them meet the world by the way.

"You won't regret it, let me send them away..." Han Ting suddenly "exposed" an extremely aggrieved expression.

Yang Can frowned and thought about it, and finally nodded: "Well, don't go too far. Don't make any outrageous incidents with me."

"Great, thank you Mr. Yang." With a smile, Han Ting suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed Yang Can's face like lightning, and then waved cheerfully: "Hey, come here, come over and thank my dear boss. "

Yang Can was "touching" his face in a daze, eight or nine young and beautiful female college students Yingyingyanyan came over, surrounded Yang Can with excitement and tenderness, and their hands, wishing to stick their bodies up.

"Boss Yang, thank you so much for hosting today." "I met you today, so I know what a nobleman is and what high-level social occasions are, and I will trouble you in the future." "Or I will be your goddaughter. You see, I’m only 19 years old this year and I belong to the monkey zodiac. It matches your zodiac sign so much~~ Fortune-telling says it’s very fate~"

Suddenly surrounded by the crowd, Yang Can seemed to have returned to the most popular imperial concubine selection in the feudal society. He was inexplicably energetic in his heart. Fortunately, he immediately woke up and asked Han Ting to treat her post-90s with a stern face. The buddies were dispelled, and the little girls all smiled like flowers, as if enjoying the process very much.

Your mother, I'm just a few years older than you, godfather! ? What about it? Being so low-key by them, Yang Can has also become the focus of the crowd. Everyone is pointing and discussing this young "godfather".

Wang Xiang, a well-known reporter of the Beijing-Shanghai Daily, smiled and said to his colleagues next to him: "Now the young girl is really, even Yang Dapao dares to tease, I'm afraid he stomped Nanshi before he knew it. Who is this?"

The photographer of the Yangcheng Evening News next to me also had a lingering fear: "That is, I felt goosebumps all over my body just by leaning over..." Looking at a female fashion journalist who stepped on high heels next to him, he asked curiously:

"Reporter Lin, I heard that you met Yang Dapao in Nanshi before. Would you like to come forward and say hello to him?"

Lin Aiwei of Ace Weekly is a well-known beauty reporter in the circle. She also met Yang Can at Yang Xiuya's wedding preparations, but at that time Yang Can was just an unknown person. How long has it been since Yang Can has become a comet. She had risen to a position where she could not be reached, and now even if she wanted to get close to him, saying a few words seemed difficult, Lin Aiwei could only shook her head with a wry smile.

"Don't say that I can't talk to him now, even if some of our editors meet him in the future, they can only be a man with their tails between them." Lin Aiwei sighed finally.

"Is there such an exaggeration? The top rank is not so high, right?" The photographer from the Yangcheng Evening News is less than 30 years old. I think Lin Aiwei's words are a bit exaggerated. How long has he been in the circle, not to mention how young Yang Dapao is. As for the domineering editor-in-chief, should he act on his face

"You don't understand this, man." The bearded reporter from Beijing Shanghai Daily opened his hand and tried to explain:

"This is not a question of status, but a question of form. You have also seen it today. How slippery Yan Shangxi said that, and there was a half-and-half stutter? We have so many colleagues in the industry, reporting so many fictional news from others, this is us The most taboo thing is that no matter how strong we are in the media, we have to be rational. If we slander others, it is a mistake. This is a big mistake. If the top media are willing, we can ask us to publish an apology. I’m declaring... I don’t know about you. The Beijing Shanghai Daily has never done such a shameful thing. This time I was taken into a ditch by the two grandsons of Le Weekly..."

Competition in the media industry has always been cleaner than in other industries. The main reason is to follow a well-known unspoken rule. No one can deliberately fabricate facts in the officially published media to suppress competitors. Once who gets the head, the media industry is determined. It is a smoke of gunpowder, and the vicious "sex" competition begins, which will lose the basic credibility of the media industry for a long time.

Therefore, no one would be stupid enough to do such a thing. In case some unruly media triggers this moral bottom line, everyone will jointly file a lawsuit against him for the "sexual" competition. If the other party does not apologize, he must be "forced". He can't get a foothold in the industry so far.

Nanzhou Magazine and Nanchu Satellite TV, which are owned by the top media, were all on fire during this period and did not miss any of them. The main premise of this is that everyone believes that Yan Shangxi’s incident is an irrefutable fact. of.

If it is true, even the fierce verbal criticism from all parties is not excessive, but once the matter is fabricated, whether it is Yan Shangxi himself is not stuttering, or she has cured the symptoms during this period, then all the publications The media who have been through this incident in the top media must formally apologize for their actions.

This is the moral bottom line of the media industry, and no one will break the benchmark for survival in the industry.

An apology is a small matter and a big face. If such a long-established big man should officially apologize to the emerging power of the top media, I am afraid that those editors who have always been arrogant will have to vomit two liters of blood..

All this depends on whether the top media will pursue it, which means that the initiative of this whole matter is entirely in Yang Can's hands.

Amidst the bitter smiles of the reporters, Lin Aiwei looked at Yang Can's direction in a complicated manner, quite mixed. Was this incident accidental? It may seem to outsiders that the top media victim's reversal has some accidental factors, but is this really the case

Since Yan Shangxi’s defect was concealed by Le Weekly, Yan Shangxi and Yang Can have been flogging countless times every day, and no one in the top media has come out to admit or deny, let alone prosecute Le Weekly as normal. I chose silence.

After such a long period of time, those media people who were cautious at the beginning thought this matter was true, and began to make countless special reports, excavated countless "insiders" and supported Le Weekly with one iron fact after another. According to the report, Yang Can still did not come out to make any comments.

Until today, at the press conference after the broadcast of "I Have a Date with Zombies", when everyone thought the top was about to kneel and surrender, Yang Can suddenly presented a fact that was completely contrary to what people expected. Those investigating Le Weekly The evidence of illegal reports is so detailed, can it be detected in a short period of time

Was it accidental that William Don and the people from the UN Department of Culture and Propaganda arrived suddenly? Viewed individually, it may be, but when we analyze all these details together, it is not difficult to find that all these are linked together, and the rhythm and depression of the event and the point of outbreak are controlled just right. If this is a complicated game The chess game, then it is as if there is an invisible hand that is always controlling everything, the layout, the stalemate, and the ending, from the beginning to the end "he" controls the trend of the situation.

Whether it’s your own Ace Weekly, Le Weekly, TVB, and other media, they think they have the initiative, but they don’t know that they have been led by the nose all the time.

The reputation of the top media seems to have been damaged during this period, and both Yan Shangxi and Yang Can have lost their image. However, once the public who abused them woke up and misunderstood them, the previous abuses would become guilt. The road that Yan Shangxi said will definitely be smoother.

On the other hand, some negative impressions of the top media in the media industry have collectively exploded, instead, they have created the image of a "victim" of the top media. Yang Can only needs to sell his personal affection and no longer pursue it, so the original colleagues who can't understand him , Inevitably will no longer become their obstacle.

On the contrary, starting from tomorrow on Yan Shangxi and "I have a date with a zombie", all the media will show an attitude, an attitude of correcting the "chaos" anyway, and the fact that the truth is innocent, but it is reported positive. The more the news of "I have a date with a zombie" can wash away people's lack of credibility before, which is undoubtedly a great help for Yan Shangxi and "I Have a Date with Zombies".

The layout of several months and the tolerance for such a long time have brought all the participants in to create such a special and hugely favorable situation. The people who planned all this are really terrible.

Lin Aiwei took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a little chill on her body. She raised her head and looked at the big reporter of the Beijing-Shanghai Evening News Wang Xiang and thought with her head down. The eyes of the two met, as if they also noticed that the other's mind was the same as her own. .

"Wang Ji...Do you think Yang Can was behind this whole thing?" Lin Aiwei asked with some complicated expression on her face.

"It's not like." Wang Xiang shook his head, resting his chin on thinking: "It should be the support of a certain power. I heard that Mr. Wu and Yang Can in Beijing seem to have met, maybe there is also Ma Jianguo..."

The two looked at each other at the same time, and both saw the shock in the eyes of each other. If it is supported by the two giants of politics and business, then everything is not surprising. The world’s three largest media groups, News Corporation, Viacom, and Times Warner has adopted this model for development. Is this kind of cross-border media empire also about to appear in China

At the same time, a thought arose in the two of them: "The top media said that they want to sell "Me and Zombie Dating" to Europe and the United States. Isn't it just empty talk?"

As two well-known names in the domestic media industry, they felt a strange feeling in their hearts at this time. They actually vaguely felt that Yang Can was suddenly far away from them. Although the top media had begun to take shape, even with the addition of Nanchu Satellite TV The strength is definitely not ranked among the top five in the industry, and it can't be compared with Xue's East Asia Group. But why do I feel that the top media has come in front of everyone in the structure? Is this an illusion

Embarrassed by Han Ting's classmates, Yang Can can only leave Shifeizhi and sit alone on the bench in the garden behind, looking at the stars in the sky comfortably, feeling very relaxed.

"What's the matter? Isn't the scene your dream of the most time in high school?" Yan Shangxi, in a light yellow "color" evening gown, came here with a gentle smile under the moonlight.

"Sometimes I really miss you being so cool." Yang Can looked at Yan Shangxi, who was sitting slowly on the side, and her mouth narrowed.

"Fortunately, I used to cover up well and didn't let you notice my true face." Yan Shangxi gently stroked her fluttering hair in the night breeze with a soft smile.

There was a trace of pity in Yang Can, and he sighed for no reason: "According to your "sex" personality, I should be very sinister in my heart. I have used everyone, and there is no point of being upright."

"En." Yan Shangxi did not hesitate to point his chin and looked at Yang Can very seriously: "I think that if you want to, you can be a politician."

"Then I'm afraid I won't be able to have sex with you. You also know that politicians must pay attention to image." Yang Can smiled.

"Maybe, I can also pretend to be a little better." Yan Shangxi held his delicate chin with one hand, and looked at Yang Can with a warm smile.

Yang Can suddenly felt a little guilty. This time she was still wronged to some extent. He leaned slightly over and just wanted to say something. Yan Shangxi leaned his head on Yang Can’s chest, thinking about the regrets he had for his father and his attachment to ideals. , Said softly: "Just try to do what you want to do. It doesn't matter if you use me, just don't let yourself work too hard."

Before Yang Can could react, Yan Shangxi’s smooth lips slowly pressed towards him, touching gently, the warm consciousness energy began to connect...
