Simple Plan is really going to be popular this time. This band just won the national championship and immediately received the favor of numerous record companies. Almost on the night of the finals, representatives from several record companies came. The hotel where the four were staying blocked the door and begged them to sign a contract.
The contracts offered by each company are very tempting. In the domestic pop music circle that values individuals over teams, this contract of Simple Plan can be said to be the first of its kind for a mainland band.
Excellent conditions such as basic salary, profit sharing, packaging, album release, MV shooting, national tour, designated number of announcements each year, etc. were all written into the contract, but no record company got the simple plan contract.
Zhang Kexuan and the four of them know very well that more than 60% of this championship is due to Li Mu. If you want to go higher and further, you must follow Li Mu closely and listen to him.
Therefore, these four young people who came all the way from Jinling to Yanjing to disrupt the music industry immediately took a flight back to Jinling after attending the press conference the day after they won the championship.
The local media in Jinling were ready and began to block Simple Plan from the airport. The four Simple Plan members were obviously more patient when facing the hometown media. They not only accepted a brief interview at the airport, but also agreed to the provincial satellite TV and Jinling local media. Invited by the city TV station for an interview, he even agreed to be a guest on a music program at Jinling Music Radio.
The four of them all went to Zhang Kexuan’s house that night, and their parents also gathered at Zhang Kexuan’s house to celebrate them. Zhang Kexuan took the time to call Li Mu and wanted to ask him what the band should do next.
Li Mu gave him a sentence: "Don't look for me these days, and fully enjoy the glory that a champion deserves."
Then Li Mu hung up the phone.
He knows these four guys. Isn't playing music just to show off? This time I finally have the opportunity to pretend to be great, so let's have a good time for a few days. What people sometimes call pursuing ideals is actually just for this vanity.
Speaking of which, Li Mu didn't have time to pay attention to them. His own store was going to open the day after tomorrow. This was the biggest undertaking he had made in his two lifetimes.
However, Li Mu did not really put aside the affairs of these guys. Now that they have won the championship, it is a good opportunity to take the opportunity to publicize. The rest can be left to Zhao Kang and his navy.
Remembering that he had received 100,000 yuan in promotion fees from Zhang Kexuan last time, Li Mu went to the bank and transferred 70,000 yuan to Zhao Kang, of which 50,000 yuan was operating capital and 20,000 yuan was Zhao Kang's remuneration.
As soon as Qian turned over, he happened to receive a call from Zhao Kang. Li Mugang wanted to tell him about Qian, but Zhao Kang said anxiously: "Xiao Mu, something happened."
"What's the situation?" Li Mu frowned slightly, which didn't sound like a good thing.
Zhao Kang said: "There was a car accident in the suburbs of the city yesterday morning. Someone killed a vegetable farmer and his wife and then escaped. Now there are posts promoting this incident all over the Internet, and photos of the scene have also been exposed. It is too tragic to watch. Netizens It’s all blown up! People are so excited that they want to collect clues together and catch the escaped murderer. The attention of netizens has been attracted by this matter, and not many people are paying attention to Guo Lin’s matter anymore!”
Li Mu had always asked Zhao Kang to continue to fan the flames of Guo Lin's affairs in order to prevent Guo Lin from relaxing. However, this basically did not cause any greater harm to Guo Lin. Li Mu also had no choice but to do it. He always wanted to Guo Lin was defeated, but he still struggled to find the winning move.
The public's attention is inherently limited. Once they are attracted by another hot event, they will naturally reduce their attention to another matter. There is no way to do this.
The most terrible thing is that this case is a hit and run, and it is serious in nature. Netizens are not just paying attention to this matter. Since they have started posting everywhere to solicit clues, it proves that they have been personally involved in it, and are not just paying attention. That's it. At this time, Li Mu had nothing to do.
The water army acts like yeast on the Internet, but if the surface is gone, yeast alone will not work.
Li Mu was a little worried. Although he clearly knew that Guo Lin had given up the plan to harm his father, Li Mu had always been determined to fight to the end about this matter. The person Guo Lin intended to harm was his own relative.
After a moment, Li Mu frowned even more, because he vaguely felt that the hit-and-run accident, the death of the vegetable farmer and his wife, these things seemed familiar.
After thinking about it carefully, Li Mu searched his memory for some information about this matter.
This car accident has indeed attracted great attention from Haizhou netizens for some time to come. However, as the murderer has not been caught, this matter has gradually been forgotten and has become an unsolved case.
It was not until several years later that the murderer surfaced. What everyone could not imagine was that the person who hit and ran was Wu Dong, a well-known energy tycoon in the province in the future.
Wu Dong is a native of Haizhou. He started out in the coal business and quickly developed into one of the province's leading bosses in a few years. A few years later, he competed viciously with others in Jinling, did not hesitate to break the law and committed crimes, and was eventually imprisoned.
At that time, someone reported with real name that Wu Dong had killed a couple selling vegetables while driving drunk in Haizhou a few years ago. They also claimed that after the incident, Wu Dong gave Li Jiawei three million and asked Li Jiawei to help him destroy a lot of evidence at the scene. .
Wu Dongze found someone to bring the accident car to Wencheng, rebranded it and sold it as a stolen car, destroying the evidence, which made the case a no-brainer.
That case also put Wu Dong in deep trouble.
Li Mu's mind was spinning fast. The relationship between Wu Dong and Guo Lin was very unusual. He had always treated Guo Lin as the God of Wealth. Eighty percent of the coal produced in the Xiling Mine was monopolized by Wu Dong, and Guo Lin's main source of gray income was also Wu Dong, these secrets have long been known to everyone in Haizhou. Since Wu Dong has caused a big disaster, why don't you just light a fire and tie Guo Lin and Wu Dong together
Silently making up his mind, Li Mu waited for the right time in his heart. He had to wait for the situation to ferment.
Online comments about hit-and-run accidents have been overwhelming within a day, and the culprit of the hit-and-run accident has also become the target of verbal and written criticism from Haizhou citizens.
At noon that day, both Haizhou TV Station and Haizhou Daily reported on the incident. What pushed the incident to a new level was the video of the evening news' visit to the victim's family.
The victim couple has two children. The eldest daughter is in high school and the younger son is still in elementary school.
In addition, there are two elderly people living with the victim couple at home.
Now that two people were tragically involved in a car accident, the whole family's pillars completely collapsed, and the financial resources of the two elderly and two children were completely cut off. The painful and helpless look of the four people in front of the camera moved countless Haizhou citizens.
On the second day after the incident, citizens and netizens began to take the initiative to donate money to the victim’s family. There was an overwhelming amount of content on the Internet calling for donations and collecting clues about the driver who caused the accident. Under such circumstances, basically not many people would pay attention to Guo Lin. Something happened.
Guo Lin was completely relieved, and at the same time, he thanked the driver's family in his heart. At the critical moment, the driver helped him draw people's attention away and did himself a big favor.
At this time, Guo Lin did not know that the driver responsible for the accident was Wu Dong, who was closely related to him.
Before dawn on the day of the incident, Wu Dong, under the instruction of Li Jiawei, found his confidants, remodeled the vehicle involved in the accident, loaded it into a container truck, and drove it south overnight.
After the three million was delivered to Li Jiawei, Li Jiawei also gave him a guarantee. At present, the number of cameras in the entire Haizhou transportation system is less than three digits, and the surveillance coverage is pitiful. There is even one within a five-kilometer radius of the incident location. There were no cameras. Since the incident happened in the early morning, there were no witnesses at the scene. With only the few clues at the scene, it was impossible to even lock the vehicle involved in the accident, let alone find his head.
So Wu Dong was worried and relieved after two days. The vehicle responsible for the accident was the key evidence. If it was gone, he didn't have to worry about the police at all. Even if the TV station reported it every day, it didn't matter. Everyone just scolded the driver who caused the accident. It was impossible to make things right. Connect with yourself.
After Wu Dong felt a lot more relaxed, he secretly cursed Guo Lin, an old guy, for his good luck. Some time ago, he asked him to help him spend money to delete posts. Unexpectedly, as soon as his incident came out, no one would pay attention to his affairs. , Hezhu had to help him out by himself, but it was a pity that he had to keep this matter in his stomach and couldn't ask Guo Lin for any benefits.
Just when Wu Dong secretly lamented Guo Lin's good luck, he never dreamed that someone would decide to sacrifice him in order to bring down Guo Lin.
