The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 357 Shadow of Truth (4)

Seeing that everyone's attention was drawn, the station director said to the reporters, "This so-called press conference is complete nonsense! He did this because he was dissatisfied after being suspended. Although I am well taken care of by Chairman Nanajo, I wouldn't be where I am today without him, but what you did now is indeed a bit too much, Masato. If you have any grudges, just direct them at me. There's no need to involve the entire TV station."

"Here we go again." Nanajo Masato pinched his brows in annoyance. He was now certain that all the bad reputation and rumors about the company recently were spread by this guy, in order to lower his own credibility and make his image become that of a dandy boy who was parachuted into the company's leadership and did whatever he wanted.

"Zhengrenjun, stop it." The director shouted in front of all the reporters: "If you have any questions or dissatisfaction, we can solve them privately. I will do my best to resolve the conflicts between you and others..."

Now everyone's eyes on Shichijo Masato have changed. His current image is indeed very much like those rich second-generations who destroyed their own industries. After returning from studying abroad, they look down on the management methods of their own industries and insist on coming up with a set of "new era" policies, and then mess up the industry...

Apart from not having made any mistakes yet, this guy's resume seems to fit the bill perfectly.
"Ahem~ I think everyone knows this guy in front of us." Nanajo Masato pretended not to notice everyone's questioning eyes and extended his hand to introduce: "Mr. Yamada Takashi, the nominal top leader of WTV, the most senior person in the TV station. Here, no one's words are more authoritative than his...

It seems so, but in fact, there is someone else who can control the entire WTV. This person is not me, not anyone from the Seventh Foundation, and not even from WTV... Do you want to know who that person is? Some people have already guessed it. Yes, that person is the president of Starlight Agency, the idol godfather - Lai Shan Chenggong. "

The reporters were all shocked. If this had come from someone else, everyone would have regarded it as a conspiracy theory, but the person in front of them was the prince of the Nanajyo Group!

Big news! Big news! The president of an artist agency controls the entire TV station? This is shocking!
"You...what are you talking about, Zhengren!" The director wanted to stop him.

If there is anyone who least wants any disturbance within the company, it is undoubtedly him. Unlike Lai Shanchenggong who is full of confidence and ambitious, he is the type who just wants to live a peaceful life and make a fortune in silence. Otherwise, he would not be willing to be controlled by Lai Shanchenggong. But today it seems that his wish is impossible to realize.

There was a microphone in front of Nanajo Masato. When the director was about to continue speaking to stop him, Nanajo Masato moved closer to the microphone and said louder than the other person, "What I want to expose today is that Lai Shan Chenggong colluded with Yamada Takashi and other senior executives to violate the artists under Starlight Agency. And it's not just one or two, but the vast majority! In other words, whether it's retired or still in the agency, a large number of artists and idols have been violated by Lai Shan Chenggong!"

The scene fell into chaos!
Not only the scene, but also the Internet was in chaos.

Masato Shichijo not only invited some traditional media, such as TV stations and newspapers, but also some new-age online media. In other words, what he is saying now is being broadcast live to the entire society!
In an instant, everyone present went crazy. The whole venue was buzzing. Reporters were shouting wildly, trying to make their voices louder and get priority to ask questions, but everyone had the same idea and everyone was rushing to the stage. Even Locke, who was watching the show in the back, had to bring the band to maintain order.

As for the guards on the side? The orders they received made them hope that the situation would be so chaotic that there would be no end to it.

"Haha, it's really lively here."

An old man wearing brown sunglasses, accompanied by his secretary and leaning on a cane, slowly walked into the venue.

"It's President Laishan!" screamed a sharp-eyed reporter.

The direction of the crowd flow immediately changed. The reporters ran as fast as they could and surrounded the mountain successfully.

"President Raiyama, is what Mr. Nanajo said true?"

"Do you have anything to say about Mr. Nanajo's accusations?"

Lai Shanchenggong was indeed a veteran who had experienced many battles. Accustomed to big scenes, he just calmly pressed his hands slightly, and the surroundings became quiet.

Lai Shanchenggong approached a microphone casually, like an old man next door, and said slowly: "Hey... Regarding what Mr. Nanajo said, I want to say that this is a very serious accusation, and the impact it has caused is very serious. There is no basis for it. If he really wants to accuse me, why not call the police and let the Metropolitan Police Department investigate the matter?"

"President Laishan, are you saying this is just Mr. Nanajo's one-sided statement?" the reporter asked.

"Yes." Lai Shanchenggong said, "This accusation is a complete slander. I have always treated the artists in the agency as my own children. How could I possibly do something so unforgivable?"

The reporter asked, "Why did Mr. Nanajo hold a press conference? Is there any reason?" Lai Shanchenggong said, "I think there may be some small misunderstandings. As we all know, the head of the Nanajo family died in an accident a few years ago, and his eldest son is also seriously ill and unable to come out to preside over the situation. The old Nanajo chairman has retired because of his age. There is no one in the family who can make the decision except him. That's why Mr. Nanajo Masato is so impatient and wants to control WTV in his own hands, right?"

"Is that really the case, Mr. Nanajo?"

"Is what President Laishan said true?"

"Excuse me, are you slandering President Laishan? Just as he said, why didn't you call the police, but chose to hold a press conference instead?"

Nanajo Masato said, "Of course I have already contacted the police, so please don't worry about that, President Yama. As for the evidence... I certainly have it. After all, I'm not a fool. Holding a press conference without any evidence is undoubtedly a self-humiliation. It will have no effect other than making others laugh at it."

Lai Shanchenggong stood in the audience, leaning on his cane, and said with a smile: "Then let me see your so-called evidence."

"Of course." Nanajo Masato nodded to the audience beside him.

Then, Tachibana Mio walked onto the stage. When she came on stage, the reporters in the audience seemed to think she looked familiar, but they did not recognize her. Even if they recognized her, they were not sure until she introduced herself.

"Hello everyone, I'm... Tachibana Mao." Tachibana Mio said, "Former idol, maybe some of you still remember me? This time, I'm standing here for those who were hurt by Lai Shan Chenggong..."

Before he could finish, another commotion broke out in the venue. The previous information had not been digested yet, and this time there was another big one. This feast was so gluttonous that the reporters felt they could not eat any more.

"Tachibana Mao... wasn't she a very popular idol in the past few years?"

"Why is she here?"

"She's a victim? No, that's not right. As far as I remember, she wasn't even an artist from Starlight Agency?"

Lai Shan Chenggong also stared at Tachibana Mio on the stage with a sneer on his lips.

"Come on, continue, hehe...you two brats, wait a minute, I will let you know what the abyss is... huh?!"

Just as everyone was talking about it, Lai Shanchenggong suddenly felt something. He supported himself with his cane and was about to fall down as if he had run out of strength. His lips moved and he said something to his secretary.

The secretary quickly supported him and said to the reporters, "Mr. Laishan is old and had already gone to bed, but he rushed over because of this incident. He is a little dizzy now. Please make way and let Mr. Laishan go to the lounge backstage to rest."

Under the gaze of everyone, the secretary helped Lai Shan successfully reach the backstage and came to the empty lounge. After entering the room, Lai Shan successfully shook off the secretary and said, "Stay outside. I need to rest for a while. Don't let anyone disturb me."

"Yes!" The secretary closed the door obediently.

The moment the door was closed, Lai Shan Chenggong's expression immediately became anxious, much more anxious than before in the meeting. It seemed that compared to the matter of Nanajo Masato, what he was worried about now was more serious to him.

"How could it be! Someone invaded my territory!" Lai Shanchenggong gritted his teeth and said, "Sure enough, your appearance there that night was not a coincidence! Qi Tiao, you actually want to deal with me from this side? I won't do as you wish... I will tear all the people you invited into pieces!"

He sat on the sofa in the lounge, found a suitable position to lean back, then closed his eyes and entered another world.
