The next day, Lao Ma went to the city hall, but he was turned away and no leader came to meet him.
After discussing with Tang Feng, Lao Ma immediately invited reporters from the municipal and provincial TV stations and major newspapers to prepare for a press conference at the Dynasty Hotel the next day.
It was naturally inappropriate for Tang Feng and the others to appear at such a press conference. At this time, they were observing the scene through the camera equipment set up in advance in the presidential suite on the top floor of the Dynasty Hotel.
Xu Qiang asked worriedly: "Boss, is this possible? Will the government ban it?"
"Ban the broadcast? Haha, even if the broadcast is banned, the matter will be spread through other means. The most important thing the Chinese people lack is the spirit of gossip. If they really ban the broadcast, that would be better, and the people will suspect that there is something evil in their hearts.
Guan Zhiyong smiled and answered.
Xu Qiang nodded. Although he was stupid, he could still figure out such a simple truth.
"Okay, the press conference is about to begin." Wang Sheng kept staring at the screen and suddenly said. No one in the room spoke. Everyone was paying attention to this press conference that dared to directly challenge the government. This can be considered unprecedented.
At the meeting, Lao Ma sat on the stage with his glasses and several lawyers hired at high prices by Huaxing Group. Everyone had arrived. Lao Ma adjusted the microphone and then coughed: "Thank you so many journalist friends for coming to Huaxing Group."
This is the first press conference since its establishment. I never thought that Huaxing Group’s first press conference would have this theme. I think everyone has heard about the Huaxing Group incident in the past two days. Yes, just the night before yesterday,
Nearly 30 entertainment venues under the Huaxing Group were closed down by the city’s Public Security Bureau for no reason! I am very angry about this. The government keeps saying that the entertainment venues under the Huaxing Group are closed down because there are safety hazards in these venues. So I would like to ask, what is the entire XA
There are thousands of entertainment venues in the city, why is Huaxing Group targeted only? I also want to ask, since the government keeps saying that the closure is due to safety risks, why has no one come to these venues to check whether there are really safety problems in the past two days?
?Just yesterday, I went to the relevant leaders several times, but was turned away. Why? Is this going to drag on like this? Who will bear the losses of Huaxing Group? Okay, what I want to say
That's all, it's time for questions." Lao Ma is very smart, avoiding the important and ignoring the trivial. His words will make anyone think that it is the government's fault at first glance.
The reporters below listened to Lao Ma's words and whispered among themselves. A female reporter with a provincial TV station certificate stood up and asked: "Mr. Ma, I want to ask you, many people say that Huaxing Group is actually a gangster, what do you think about this?
Is there anything you want to say?”
Lao Ma had already thought that reporters would ask this question, so he smiled and said, "Before I answer, I want to ask you, what is the underworld in your impression?"
The female reporter didn't expect Lao Ma to ask her this question. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Kill people, set fires, and oppress the people."
Lao Ma nodded, and then said: "So have you ever heard of Huaxing Group doing these things? What is the underworld? It's just a name. In my opinion, there is no underworld at all. If a person is not kind-hearted, then
He is a bad person. On the other hand, if a society has never harmed the interests of others or oppressed the people, but has made corresponding contributions to the people, is such a society also called a gang? Well, you can think about this question after you go back.
.Next person please.”
As soon as the female reporter sat down, a reporter from the Economic News behind her stood up and said: "Hello, Mr. Ma, as far as I know, Huaxing Group has been established for less than a month, but its assets are hundreds of millions, and you
Previously, I was just the owner of a Slow Bar, and most of the industries under Huaxing Group were independent before. Can you explain why Huaxing Group was established? And how to coordinate these independent assets together? "
After smiling, Lao Ma said: "This question does not belong to the content of today's press conference. If you are interested in this, I don't mind if we chat in private."
After the reporter sat down boredly, a reporter from the city TV station stood up and looked at Lao Ma. The reporter said directly: "Mr. Ma, I am a reporter from the city TV station. It is said that the son of a certain leader in this city was arrested by Huaxing Group.
Killing, is this true?”
As soon as this question came out, the reporters in the venue were in an uproar. Unexpectedly, Lao Ma seemed to have been prepared for it. He said calmly: "You asked a very good question. I can also tell you bluntly that we are teaching a certain leader's son a lesson."
After a while, he brought it upon himself. I think everyone knows the reputation and character of this young master. As for being killed by the Huaxing Group, I find it ridiculous, even ridiculous. Where is the evidence?"
When the reporter saw Lao Ma finish speaking, he immediately added: "According to witnesses, Huaxing Group entangled the underworld to kidnap this young man from a certain hotel. Since then, this young man has not appeared again. Do you have any explanation for this?"
"Kidnapping? All of you here are sensible people. They all know the identity and conduct of this young man. I can tell you clearly that it is this scumbag young man who attempted to rape the sister of a senior executive of our Huaxing Group and kidnap her.
After going to the hotel, are we just going to let these high-ranking cadres run wild? Who is the one who is not abiding by the law if we give him a lesson and get the government's suppression? As for the issue of this young man's disappearance, we don't know that. We taught him a lesson at that time.
He was released immediately. As for where he went, it has nothing to do with us. We are not his nannies." Lao Ma's voice gradually became louder and he stared at the reporter.
"Are you saying that the reason why Huaxing Group was suppressed by the government is related to the disappearance of this young man?" The reporter asked sharply.
Lao Ma pretended to be angry, knocked on the table and said: "Yes!"
Lao Ma's words were no less powerful than a bombshell. Seeing the reporters below making an uproar, Lao Ma continued: "If the government is just pretending to be public for personal gain, then I would like to ask one last question: Is the government serving the people or certain people?
Serving? Can no one see the various crimes of this young master? Well, today’s news will end here. I would like to thank all the reporters and friends again for coming to support me. I invite everyone to have a meal in the banquet hall on the third floor." After that, the old man said.
Ma stood up and left his glasses to deal with these reporters, while he went directly to the top floor.
"Old Ma, you are so eloquent. I never noticed that you are so eloquent before?" Seeing Lao Ma come in, Wang Sheng first stepped forward and put his arms around his neck like a little hooligan.
"Lao Ma, you did a good job." Tang Feng saw that Lao Ma kept looking at him. Of course he knew that Lao Ma wanted to be recognized by him. Of course, he would not be stingy with a compliment.
After pausing for a moment, Tang Feng added: "That reporter did a good job. I'll ask him to come see me later. I think we really need a journalist friend who can bring us a positive influence."
