Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 2674 Tit for tat

The next day, as soon as Fox's newspaper was published, it caused an uproar and pointed the finger at the brother company.

The article is written in sharp language and sophisticated terms. Although Ye Feng's name is not mentioned, between the lines, Ye Mao is described as a young villain who bullies others by taking advantage of his power and does all kinds of evil.

Ever since the Internet became popular, all kinds of bizarre news have been flying around. After being fooled time and time again, people have developed the ability to analyze.

In other words, it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false on the Internet, while newspapers and television have become official media and have greater credibility.

Many people have forgotten that in the era without the Internet, they were fooled countless times by these so-called official media and were at a loss as to what to do.

Ye Feng sat in his office without saying a word. Susie sat opposite him, also with a heavy expression.

Neither of them expected that the old guy Fox would actually attack Ye Feng.

The two discussed this issue for a while and finally reached a consensus that the part that Fox divested has now become a profitable subsidiary of its sister company, which has put Fox in an embarrassing position.

Everyone wants to save face, and Ye Feng also owns a portion of Fox News shares. Although it is not much, it makes him very disgusted.

It's not just a slap in the face, but this name appears in the board meetings all day long.

It seems that Fox is planning to remove Ye Feng from Fox News. At least this way, he won't be so embarrassed.

"How to do?"

Susie looked at Ye Feng and asked. Over the years, she has become accustomed to being obedient. It is because of her obedience that she has achieved her current status.

Ye Feng shook his head: "Don't worry about it for now, just wait and see what happens."

After Ye Feng figured out the whole story, he was no longer in a hurry. They had some friendship to begin with, and now it was just the right time to break up. Anyway, he was really interested in this news group.

Newspapers with global distribution rights, dozens of TV channels, wow, it is too difficult to get such resources nowadays.

"Go to the police station and get Ye Mao out on bail. They are under pressure now and dare not release him."

Susie nodded, stood up, turned around and walked outside. Are you kidding me, Susie's brother-in-law dared not let go, is he looking for trouble?

The negotiation went smoothly, and the bail was only a symbolic amount. Are you kidding, Congressman? Which police station can handle this? Even the Chief of Police doesn't dare to force it.

After interrogation, Ye Mao already knew what had happened: the person he kicked first was actually dead.

He was sure that he had not done anything ruthless, so there must be another reason for his death. He told Susie about his doubts.

Susie hugged him and kissed him: "Dear brother, you are so smart."

After living in China for a long time, he was a little uncomfortable with this etiquette, but Susie had watched him grow up, so she didn't resist.

He wiped the saliva off his face, feeling a little embarrassed.

Susie found it interesting and folded her arms again:

"Are you shy? Do you want to do it again?"

Ye Mao quickly broke free. He was really afraid of his sister-in-law. The key point was that the foreigner was really unreserved.

This time Ye Mao was sent back to Yuanfang. When Yuanfang saw him, she simply decided not to go anywhere and just stayed at home. She was really afraid that something unexpected would happen again.

Ye Mao felt uncomfortable and begged her to take him to the company to watch the editing. After all, he knew nothing about this area.

Yuanfang thought about it and agreed. This way she could still work and just ask someone to accompany them.

After spending a few days in the company, Ye Mao found the team responsible for editing his film and simply started working there.

After all, he was the one who made the movie, so he could give some suggestions. He did not approve of using too many special effects for the sake of shock.

Movies are mainly about telling stories, but Hollywood has a very bad habit these days.

That is to focus too much on special effects and ignore what the movie wants to express.

You know, any literary work must be thought-provoking, so that people can be shocked or reflect after watching it.

Good works can resonate with people, and they can feel sad or excited following the plot. The stories will remain in their memory for a long time after they leave the theater.

As for bad movies, I forget everything about them before I even leave the theater. Or I just laugh along with them.

Wolf Warrior is a film that shows the spirit of the Chinese people, although in the end, only a few people were left in the entire Wolf Warrior organization.

But their unhesitating determination to sacrifice their lives for their ideals and beliefs will be engraved in the hearts of everyone who watches the movie.

This is the Chinese spirit. This country has experienced glory and decline over thousands of years, but it has never been truly enslaved by anyone.

Even if you invade her, you will eventually find that you have become a Chinese.

Ye Mao communicated very well with the editors, and the editing was coming to an end at this time. After accepting his opinions, the film was postponed for a few days and finally completed.

In order to save time, Yuanfang has already arranged the schedule and will release the film after it is completed. The premiere will naturally be held in Hollywood.

Yuan Fang did not choose to hold another premiere because the pre-promotion was already sufficient and there was no need to go through the trouble.

Hollywood cinemas are very old-fashioned, and the premieres of major blockbusters are usually held in these old cinemas.

Because this movie had received so much advance publicity, the moment the premiere was announced, the movie tickets were sold out.

The reporters complained, "Is it really okay for you to do this? If ordinary audiences snatch up all the tickets, what will we do?"

Whether your movie is a hit or not depends entirely on us to praise it. Don’t you understand this?

But no one cares about their voices. If you want to watch it, go ahead and buy your own tickets. Don’t blame us if you can’t get one.

However, the reporters still have a way. If they really take action, ordinary audiences can't beat them. Therefore, most of the reporters still gathered in the main venue where the tickets had long been sold out.

Complaints aside, journalists are still very dedicated. At least, when watching a movie, they are more serious than anyone else.

Some of them have even been to the film sets, whether in Africa or northern Myanmar. The scenes back then make their scalps tingle when they think about them now. They were so explosive!

After watching the movie, there was complete silence, with only a few sobs occasionally, but they were all suppressed with all their might, for fear of disturbing others.

When the lights came on, everyone in the room was in tears. It was so touching and shocking.

The crew and a group of senior judges invited by Yuan Fang were all in the venue. Before the show started, Ye Mao and the crew had already made some speeches. However, the speech was completely different from what he felt after watching the movie.

Ye Mao took the stage again, and was also helpless. Facing many reporters and film critics, he only said one sentence:

"Filmmakers shoot stories, express spirits, and inherit heritage!"

It was just a short sentence, followed by a long silence, and then warm applause.

Yuanfang looked at Ye Mao with tears in her eyes, her face full of pity. How could the Ye family be so outstanding in doing anything for love?

I looked around at the people around me. They were all Oscar judges. Should everything be safe now, right?

Yuan Fang also knew that Ye Mao had taken over the Warrior Group, so he was so anxious to release this movie.

Because she understood that this might be Ye Mao's first, but also his last movie. After all, as the CEO of a group, it was a bit unprofessional to do this...

As the movie was released, positive reviews came in like a tide, and at this time, all Fox media had begun a massive crusade against Ye Mao.

As for the brother company, it remained silent, giving people the false impression that everything about Ye Mao was true, and that Ye Feng, the leader, became his support.

However, it's not that there is no movement at all. Facebook and Twitter, the two largest online platforms, have already stood overwhelmingly on Ye Mao's side.

Even the video of the conflict that day was found and released, becoming the most effective evidence.

Things remained at a stalemate, with the Internet and traditional media beginning to confront and then attack each other.

There are more and more people watching the show. Although this matter has nothing to do with them, Ye Mao’s movie is really good!

In particular, Ye Mao is the screenwriter, producer, and leading actor, and has attracted countless fans.

Especially the children, who have been fascinated by his mythological stories, are very excited to see him on the screen.

The copyright of Wolf Warrior began to be sold at an astonishing rate, and the box office was accumulating at an unbelievable speed.

At this time, China has not yet publicly released this film. Due to scale and procedural issues, some things are always slower.

However, seeing the high praise for the film abroad, discussions gradually became heated, and finally the relevant departments had to speed up the review.

At this time, other traditional media in the United States finally began to speak out, even though Fox is a media giant.

But there are more than one media outlets in the United States. Two of them are even better than him.

Because they usually have to deal with a lot of things and give each other face, but now he has gone too far and others have to speak out.

After all, what the media needs is credibility. If you can do whatever you want just because you have a platform, eventually the audience will abandon you.

Especially when facing someone like Ye Mao who has just become very popular, other media will naturally be criticized if they dare not even speak out.

Of course, they had to investigate before speaking out. These were people with connections, and Ye Mao's matter was so simple that they would understand it with a little understanding.

Then they disclosed the truth in newspapers and on television, and what happened next was a tragedy. Fox's insistence on his own way naturally caused his status in the hearts of the people to decline sharply.

Both newspaper sales and television ratings began to decline sharply, and correspondingly, stock prices fell rapidly.

You have to know that although Fox is the helmsman, the group company has many shareholders, although these shareholders do not have as many shares as he does, and their say is not as strong as his.

But these people combined are more important than him, and no one can understand his suicidal behavior.

You are fighting against all the media and the people on your own, and one of them is a shareholder of your own company. If you don't want the company, you can give it up, but you can't take everyone to death with you.

After several discussions, everyone decided to hold a shareholders' meeting and Fox must provide a reasonable reason.

Ye Feng was naturally also among the shareholders, as he at least held 5% of the shares. This amount of shares might seem small, but it was definitely enough to rank among the top ten.

For a company of this size, even one thousandth is an astronomical figure, let alone 5%.

After so many years of continuous development and financing, the initial entrepreneurs actually don’t have many shares left.

However, in order to maintain control of the company, Fox has always kept 70% of the shares in the family.

The reason for selling off Fox Entertainment is that the company has been losing money. It is not that it cannot raise funds, but it is better to sell a company that has lost control.

The remaining 30% of the shares will be in the hands of outsiders, and Ye Feng’s 5% is part of this 30%.

At the beginning of the meeting, everyone pointed the finger at Murdoch, asking him to explain his current behavior.

But Murdoch remained silent and remained indifferent to everyone's accusations.

And his family members were not united at this time. After all, their own interests were involved and no one would remain calm.

Especially Murdoch's suicidal behavior must be given a reasonable explanation to everyone.

Unexpectedly, after a long silence, he actually pointed at Ye Feng and said:

"I don't mean to hurt anyone. I just want to kick this person out as a shareholder. Ye Feng, tell me, how much money do I need to give up my shares?"

Ye Feng didn't expect this guy to be so disrespectful, so he stood up and sneered:

"Even if you give me all your property, I won't give up my shares."

"But I want to know one thing. We have always had a good relationship. Why are you suddenly targeting me? Is it because I turned Fox Entertainment into Brothers Films and started to make a profit?"

Mo Keduo shook his head: "There is no reason. The company is yours. What does making money or losing money have to do with me? I just don't like you."

Ye Feng sneered: "As a shareholder of the company, I regret your behavior and propose to remove you from the position of chairman of the board of directors. A person who is so willful that he can damage the company's reputation just because he doesn't like anyone is not worthy of being the company's CEO."

Ye Feng is no longer the same person as before. His brother company has now become one of the top companies in the United States.

It's just because it was established not long ago and lacks some foundation. In time, this Fox company will not be taken seriously by him at all.

Now that such a person is targeting him like this, he naturally cannot tolerate it and must fight back.

He is not empty-handed now, he has strong financial resources behind him, especially after the establishment of Sofia Club, he has formed an interest group.

Soros is one of his loyal friends, so it seems he has to trouble him.

The key is that this guy is very interested in being a big shot in the financial market, so maybe he should be given a chance to show off his power. This is called knowing people and assigning them to the right positions.
