Peninsula Prosecutor Text Volume Chapter 162: Explosion, Anger, Fire South Korea Morning News has just started in Incheon. In the early stage, it was basically given to various newsstands and other sales channels for free.
But even so, they can't sell much every day.
Because its positioning overlaps with that of major newspapers like the Incheon Daily News, and there are no exclusive news, citizens are naturally more willing to buy old newspapers that they have read for decades.
But today is different.
Today's South Korea Morning Post has exclusive news.
And it's still heavyweight.
In order to promote the news, Lin Miaoxi spent a lot of money to hire a large number of helpers to stand in front of each newsstand, or sell newspapers in the ancient way of selling newspapers while walking around the streets.
Primitive, but effective, just like handing out leaflets.
"Selling newspapers! South Korea Morning News! Exclusively reported that the daughter of the president of Incheon Daily was arrested by the prosecutor for multiple criminal crimes and may face life imprisonment!"
"Selling newspapers! South Korea Morning News! Incheon Daily President Choo Soon-ji has repeatedly protected his daughter's crimes..."
Today is October 3rd, which is South Korea’s First Day and one of the National Days. It is a holiday, so there are many people on the street.
This shouting could be seen everywhere, crowds on the streets and passers-by in front of newsstands were in a rage.
Incheon people are accustomed to reading Incheon Daily, which shows that it has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. But precisely because no one knows Incheon Daily, this cry is even more touching.
“Bring me a South Korean morning paper!”
"Little brother, give me a copy of the South Korean Morning News!"
"Boss, is the South Korean Morning News...sold out?"
The temporary newsboys and newsstands were either crowded with people or lined up in long lines. They all asked for the South Korea Morning News by name and wanted to eat the exclusive big melon of the Incheon Daily News.
After all, it sounds very exciting.
"The sales are going crazy! Call the newspaper office quickly to get the goods!"
The South Korea Morning Post's phone lines have been buzzing, and all employees have to turn into temporary operators to answer the phone.
"Another three thousand copies? Okay, okay... there's a call coming in, please wait a moment, hello, may I ask..."
"Five thousand copies? We'll arrange it right away."
Fortunately, Lin Miaoxi was prepared in advance, printed a large number of today's newspapers a day in advance, and also contacted the delivery truck, otherwise today would definitely be a mess.
"Axi! I really didn't expect that President Qiu, looking at a well-mannered media person who claims to have a sense of social responsibility, would actually cover up and condone his daughter's crime!"
"I have long seen through his hypocrisy. Anyone who talks about being a good person all day long is definitely not a good person!"
"Severely punish Qiu Meiyan! Damn it, how could it be so bad? We must unite and march to put pressure on the prosecutors, and we cannot let them close the case hastily!"
South Korea's Morning Post devoted a lot of space to reporting on Choo Mi-yeon's case, selecting a few of her worse deeds to describe in detail, and also highlighted her admission during the interrogation that Choo Soon-ji knew about it and helped her deal with the aftermath.
The article was written by Lin Miaoxi herself. As a top student and a former ace reporter of Beijing News, her writing style is pungent and her words are precise, and she can easily arouse the anger of ordinary people against capitalists like Qiu Shunzhi.
Citizens who had read the newspaper were filled with indignation and rage, while people who had not read the newspaper had the same sense of justice after hearing rumors that were more exaggerated than the facts.
Things escalated quickly, and there was a storm outside. Qiu Shunzhi, who stayed up all night writing, didn't know anything about it for the time being.
At this time, scrapped manuscripts crumpled into balls could be seen everywhere on the floor of his office. He was writing an article criticizing the misdeeds of the Incheon District Prosecutors.
"Bang!"
At this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open.
"Father..." It was his two sons who came in.
"Axi! Didn't I tell you not to disturb me when I'm writing?" Qiu Shunzhi interrupted the two of them angrily and yelled.
The eldest son said with a pale face: "Something happened!"
"Something big happened!" the second son added.
"What's the matter?" Qiu Shunzhi saw this, the anger on his face gradually subsided, he frowned and asked in a deep voice.
The eldest son said: "Someone is slandering our family."
"How to smear it?" Qiu Shunzhi frowned deeper when he heard this, feeling that his two sons were making a fuss.
After all, they are the only ones in Incheon who discredit others.
Who dares to discredit the Qiu family?
As for some rumors, they are harmless.
"They told us what we did." The second son swallowed, and quickly stepped forward and handed over the newspaper in his hand: "Dad, you can read it for yourself."
He also contributed a share of sales to South Korea Morning News.
"South Korea Morning News? Where did this third-rate tabloid come from?" Qiu Shunzhi took the newspaper and his face became serious when he saw the title. After reading it, he was so angry that he tore the newspaper into pieces, and his face kept twitching: "
Burn down their printing house for me!”
After he finished speaking, he looked down at the "Essay" he had stayed up all night to write, grabbed it and tore it into pieces.
It’s no longer useful. Now any bad report he makes about the Incheon District Prosecutor’s Office will be attacked as a slander.
But he couldn't stop the local inspection.
Isn’t it possible to clean up a third-rate tabloid?
"Dad, if we burn down their factory at this time, others will doubt us." The eldest son reminded us.
Qiu Shunzhi said coldly: "If their factory is burned, it is equivalent to becoming mute. If they can't print newspapers, how can they blame us? If they burn down, say hello to all printing plants, who dares to cooperate with this bullshit South Korean Morning News?
Just be against me, Qiu Shunzhi!"
"I would also like to say hello to all the media. They are not allowed to report or interview the burning of the South Korea Morning News factory. Remember to only burn the printing factory and never kill anyone."
His family has been in Incheon for so many years and is a well-known media boss. A tabloid that he has never heard of actually tries to take off on the Qiu family. He must kill him, and it will also serve as a warning to the monkeys.
"I'll do it now." The second son turned and left.
The eldest son stayed where he was: "Father, the situation is very exciting now, do we need to clarify something?"
It is estimated that people will besiege the newspaper building soon.
These unscrupulous people like to meddle in other people's business. Even though it has nothing to do with them, they are even more excited than the person involved.
"Clarification, how to clarify?" Qiu Shunzhi asked coldly, and then said: "Accusing the Incheon District Prosecutor's Office that what they said is not true? Or accusing your sister of lying and smearing me? Do you think the citizens will believe it?"
"Any clarification now is just sophistry and will only further arouse people's anger. The purpose of the Incheon District Prosecutor's Office is not to treat your sister, but to attack me."
Qiu Shunzhi is not stupid, and he has a sharp vision. As soon as the South Korea Morning Post's interview with Minister Liao came out, he smelled something unusual, and the prosecutor's office wanted to kill him.
"What should we do?" the eldest son exclaimed.
Qiu Shunzhi breathed out: "I admitted my mistake to the people and announced my resignation, and actively cooperated with the prosecutor's investigation."
"Father..." The eldest son quickly tried to persuade him.
Qiu Shunzhi raised his hand to interrupt him: "Only in this way can the people be angry. As long as the heat of this matter is quickly reduced, we can use public opinion as a weapon to force the district attorney to compromise. I will be fine."
Besides, he just resigned openly to deceive those fools, but secretly he still controlled the overall situation.
After all, Incheon Daily is a family business.
Qiu Soonji quickly published his apology letter through the TV station. In the letter, he emphasized that everything he did was out of a father's desire to protect his daughter, and deliberately downplayed his identity as the president and editor-in-chief of the Incheon Daily.
Win the approval of a large number of parents.
It is easy to arouse public anger, and it is also easy to reduce it. After Qiu Shunzhi apologized and announced his resignation to cooperate with the prosecutor's investigation, some citizens who shouted at him felt that he had done a good job.
"President Qiu just loves his daughter. Besides, Qiu Meiyan has been arrested by the prosecutor, and he is willing to cooperate with the investigation. There is no need to continue to be aggressive."
"Yes, I am also a father. I can understand his mentality. As long as Qiu Meiyan is punished as she deserves, President Qiu is a good person. He even donated more than one billion won to charity last year.
.”
"He just made the mistake a father would make..."
Regarding this kind of remarks, Xu Jingxian just wanted to say: What the hell are you? Three generations of mud-legged people have gone to commiserate with the capitalists. Are you cheap?
Of course, although there are idiots, there are still many normal people who are still marching against Qiu Shunzhi.
……………………
At night, a high-end hotel in Incheon.
Zhong Chengxue changed into casual clothes and came to the appointment.
After walking to the private room, he opened the door and entered.
"Director Zhong, you are here, please take a seat quickly." Seeing this, Jiang Zhiqing quickly stood up and greeted him with a warm smile.
Zhong Chengxue's attitude was very warm: "Young Master Jiang, there is no need to be so polite. Your sister is both my right-hand man and my friend. There is a deep connection between you and me."
The Jiang family has considerable wealth and connections in Incheon.
So Zhong Chengxue naturally wants to give face.
"What Director Zhong said is that I often heard my sister say that you take good care of her." Jiang Zhiqing kept talking without changing his expression. His sister had never mentioned Zhong Chengxue.
He himself didn't know much about Zhong Chengxue.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to him.
"Director, this is the specialty of this store..."
After the two sat down, they started eating and drinking. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the relationship became warm.
Jiang Zhiqing then got down to business: "To be honest, I invited Director Zhong tonight not only to see his heroic appearance, but also to ask for something. I hope you can agree."
He looked at Zhong Chengxue opposite with a calm face.
"Master Jiang, please speak frankly. I will definitely not turn away anyone who can help. If you can't help, then there is nothing I can do." Zhong Chengxue said with a drunken mouth.
Don't speak too harshly.
It's up to him whether he can help or not.
"Director Zhong will definitely be able to help. I never make demands that make things difficult for others." Jiang Zhiqing smiled slightly, put down his glass and said, "The Renhe Association and I have some old grudges. President Han of the Zhongyi Association is acquainted with me and is willing to help."
I said this, so I wanted to ask the director to do me a favor and do me a favor."
After hearing this, Zhong Chengxue was shocked. The real murderer of Ax was found, and he was Han Guozhong.
Although Jiang Zhiqing was somewhat capable, he was still too young after all. He had no idea how deeply involved he was with the Renhe Society, yet he actually dared to come before him.
"This is the first time Mr. Jiang has spoken to me. Naturally, I have to agree. Otherwise, wouldn't I be living up to the good wine and food tonight?" Zhong Chengxue laughed.
Don't be afraid of people being smart, and don't be afraid of people being stupid.
I'm afraid that someone like Jiang Zhiqing, who is a bit smart and self-righteous, will often cause trouble for the family.
"Director Zhong is very refreshing!" Jiang Zhiqing also laughed and clapped his hands: "Director Zhong is very refreshing and I am not stingy either. A small courtesy would be disrespectful."
The door of the private room was pushed open, and a tall and sturdy middle-aged man walked in carrying two money boxes and put them down.
Jiang Zhiqing recommended it to Zhong Chengxue: "This is just a small meeting gift, and I will thank you heavily after everything is done."
The so-called reluctance to give up the child would not lead to a wolf, not to mention that he did not intend to engage in this one-time deal, but wanted to take this opportunity to establish a long-term relationship of interest with Zhong Chengxue.
"I told Young Master Jiang not to be polite, but you are still so polite." Director Zhong shook his head, lifted the two boxes and put them beside him, raised his glass and said, "I wish Young Master Jiang a victory with this glass."
Don't take money for free.
Besides, Jiang Zhiqing wouldn't worry if he didn't want it.
"Then I'll borrow Director Zhong's good advice."
At the same time, the Xu family was also having dinner.
"cheers!"
Xu Jingxian, Lin Miaoxi, and Han Xiuya raised their glasses and clinked them together, then raised their heads and drank.
There are extremely rich dishes on the table.
Even Wangcai had an extra meal tonight.
"Today, the newspaper sold 150,000 copies. South Korea Morning News became an instant hit and became famous. I would like to thank Obama for his support and my sister-in-law for her dedication."
Lin Miaoxi was smiling brightly. She was pregnant and could not drink, so the glass was full of juice.
As the reputation has spread, other newspapers are too afraid to report Qiu Meiyan's case due to concerns about the Qiu family. As long as South Korea Morning News continues to follow up, it will not worry about sales at all.
Over time, you will have your own market.
"How can I pay?" Han Xiuya asked, raising a jade foot wrapped in fleshy silk from under the dining table and rubbing it on Xu Jingxian's leg, teasing him from time to time.
This has become a small part of every meal.
As long as she is with Xu Jingxian, she can't rest.
She had a high temper and was very stubborn, holding back while deliberately biting her chopsticks and ogling Xu Jingxian with her red lips and teeth exposed.
While enduring his sister-in-law's behind-the-scenes manipulations, Xu Jingxian helped Lin Miaoxi answer: "Isn't your care of our lives just a sacrifice? Without you arranging everything at home, how could Miaoxi and I devote ourselves to work outside?
Where to go?"
The most important thing is to meet his physiological needs.
Although I still have Lee Sang-hee, sometimes I suddenly want to eat fish at home, so I can’t just run out.
So it is most convenient to raise a fish at home.
The fish you raise yourself is plump and juicy, natural and pollution-free, with zero additives, so you can eat it with confidence.
"Oppa is right." Lin Miaoxi nodded with a smile.
"Dingle bell! Dingle bell!"
At this moment, a cell phone rang.
"It's mine." Lin Miaoxi put down the bowls and chopsticks and walked to the living room. She took out the mobile phone in her bag and connected it. Then her face turned pale and she exclaimed in surprise: "What did you say?"
Xu Jingxian and Han Xiuya immediately followed the sound.
"Are there any casualties?" Lin Miaoxi asked. When she heard if there were any, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, she stood there motionless, then slowly sat down on the sofa in a daze.
"What's going on?" Xu Jingxian walked over and sat down next to her, holding her in his arms and asked with concern.
Han Xiuya also put on high heels and walked over.
Lin Miaoxi threw herself into Xu Jingxian's arms and cried loudly.
"There is a fire in the printing factory and it cannot be stopped. All equipment and raw materials will definitely be burned. Many bosses have ordered newspapers in advance today. If they cannot be delivered tomorrow, they will face liquidated damages..."
Just as her career was improving, she suffered another blow. She was rushed from Seoul to Incheon and felt exhausted both physically and mentally.
"How could this... suddenly catch fire!" Han Xiuya was shocked, and then said: "Did it be set artificially? Qiu Shunzhi did it! It must be him!"
The South Korean Morning News had just reported Choo Soon-ji's scandal in the morning, and the printing factory was burned down in the evening. Any normal person would immediately suspect Choo Soon-ji.
After all, there is no such thing as a coincidence.
"Whether it is or not, it has to be him." A stern look flashed in Xu Jingxian's eyes, and he picked up Lin Miaoxi's mobile phone and called Fatty Liu: "There is a fire in the South Korea Morning News printing factory on XX Road. Find a few corpses and throw them in."
Lin Miaoxi and Han Xiuya immediately looked at him.
"Yes." Although Fatty Liu was busy investigating the murderer of the axe, he did not dare to neglect what Xu Jingxian told him. After hanging up the phone, he was about to ask someone to find the body when his phone rang again. It was Zhong Chengxue.
He pressed the answer button: "Hello, Director Zhong."
"The person who killed the axe was probably Han Guozhong..." Director Zhong had already walked out of the hotel, sat in the car and told Fatty Liu what he had just eaten with Jiang Zhiqing.
"Jiang Zhiqing!" Fatty Liu repeated these three words word for word. He had just read this person's information some time ago, so he still had relevant memories in his mind.
He never expected that he just asked Ax to warn him, and he actually found someone to kill Ax.
Of course, he would definitely not dare to attack Jiang Zhiqing directly, but he would never let go of Han Guozhong.
Doesn’t the other party want to launch a general attack on Renhehui?
Then I will make a surprise attack on him tonight.
By chance, the body that Minister Xu wanted was found.
And it's still fresh.
On the other side, from the Xu family, Lin Miaoxi looked at Xu Jingxian and said, "Are you trying to pretend to be someone who was burned to death, and take the opportunity to make things worse and throw dirty water on Qiu Shunzhi?"
Setting fire and setting people on fire are two different concepts.
What's more, several people were burned to death.
As soon as this was reported.
Qiu Shunzhi will be pushed to the forefront again.
"My wife is so smart." Xu Jingxian praised.
Lin Miaoxi frowned: "But the printing factory was burned down and there will be no newspapers to sell tomorrow. Other factories dare not cooperate with me, and other media will not report it."
She is also well aware of the status of Incheon Daily News in Incheon.
"Don't forget that South Korea Morning Post still has a shareholder." Xu Jingxian took out his mobile phone and looked up Zheng Yongfan's number.
Lin Miaoxi's eyes lit up: "Yes, Zheng Yongfan!"
Zheng Yongfan is the local bully of Incheon. If he opens his mouth, he will definitely find a printing house to print newspapers.
Xu Jingxian immediately called Zheng Yongfan.
"President Zheng, I didn't disturb your rest, did I?"
His attitude and words were very polite and respectful.
"Hahahaha, of course not. Minister Xu and your wife have done a good job. I have seen the results."
Zheng Yongfan laughed heartily.
"The newspaper's printing plant has just been burned down."
"Oh?" Zheng Yongfan's voice rose slightly.
Xu Jingxian continued: "In addition, several workers were burned to death. I think no newspaper would dare to report such a big thing. Although the South Korean Morning News is willing to assume social responsibility, there is no printing plant available..."
"How could there not be one?" Zheng Yongfan interrupted Xu Jingxian's words and said inhumanely: "I will buy one immediately and give it to the newspaper company, and convert it into shares for me."
He is now going to increase his investment in South Korea Morning News.
"Thank you, Chairman Zheng, for resolving the newspaper's urgent need."
