Huayu: Starting from Fahrenheit

Chapter 77 Reporter

"Let him go!"

Wu Zhuo didn't let his bodyguards beat Fan Zhiwei up.

First of all, he and Cyndi Wang are good friends, and if he beats up Fan Zhiwei, Cyndi Wang's boyfriend, it would be somewhat embarrassing for both parties.

Secondly, this is the entrance of the "Smile Pasta" crew, and people coming and going are all from the industry.

There were even large numbers of reporters often lying in ambush at the door.

If this matter were reported in the news, it would be somewhat disadvantageous to him.

"Mr. Wu, you are awesome and arrogant! Just wait, this matter is not over yet."

Fan Zhiwei, who was released, felt humiliated and his face was full of anger.

But after taking one look at the two ferocious and strong bodyguards, he didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore and could only retreat while making his remarks.

Wu Zhuo didn't take it seriously and picked up the phone to call Chen Huiying.

Tell the other person what just happened.

"Don't worry about it, the company will take care of it."

After listening to Wu Zhuo's explanation, Chen Huiying directly told Wu Zhuo not to worry about it and let the company solve it.

Again.

Why sign with the company?

By joining the company, you can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

What is the background of Tianxi Entertainment?
The owner of this agency is Ge Fuhong.

What is Ge Fuhong’s background?
She is a well-known entertainment tycoon in Taiwan, and she not only possesses enormous power in the entertainment industry.

She is good friends with Qiu Fusheng, the boss of the Era Group, Yang Dengkui, the boss of TVB Central, and Wu Dun, the boss of Changhong.

With this background, Tianxi Entertainment's artists are basically the kind that no one dares to mess with in Taiwan.

Especially someone like Wu Zhuo who is thriving and is highly valued by the company.

Not to mention a small fry like Fan Zhiwei, even if someone more powerful came, he wouldn't dare to threaten him at will.

Wu Chao has never felt safe.

Since Fan Zhiwei threatened him, he had to take it to heart.

But I can't handle this kind of thing myself, so I can only leave it to the company.

Whether the company tries to have a good talk with Fan Zhiwei and ask him not to cause trouble for Wu Chao again, or whether it directly takes tough measures, the company will solve the problem.

He doesn't know anyway.

……

"It seems like there are reporters following behind?"

After leaving the crew, Wu Chao's car had only been driving for a few minutes when the driver, Lao Jiang, reminded Wu Chao.

Wu Zhuo glanced back.

There was indeed a white car following far behind.

"Don't worry about them. We are not going to do anything shameful."

Wu Chao ignored the reporters.

Recently, the scandal between him and Cyndi Wang has been very popular. In order to get first-hand news, a large number of reporters have been waiting outside the crew almost every day. As soon as he leaves, these reporters will follow him.

If he was going home at this time, he would definitely ask the driver to get rid of these reporters before going back.

He didn't want Mamaw to be harassed by reporters.

But today, his destination was Rolling Stone Records, and he was there for work, so there was no need to get rid of the reporters...

At the entrance of the Rolling Stone Building at No. 290, Lane 3, Guangfu South Road, Wu Chao and others stopped at the entrance.

As soon as they stopped, the reporters who were following them also stopped their car on the side of the road.

Wu Chao smiled, took a pack of Alishan 1905 cigarettes from the car, and walked straight towards the car.

"Brother Wang, Wu Zhuo seems to have discovered us."

"Oh no! He's coming towards us!"

Seeing Wu Zhuo walking towards them, the younger of the two reporters in the car was suddenly startled.

Snapped!
The older middle-aged man slapped him on the back of the head:

"Why panic? We are not thieves. We are journalists. If we are discovered, it's no big deal."

"That's right...it should be Wu Zhuo who is afraid of us!!"

The young man scratched his head as if something suddenly occurred to him.

Da da da!
Wu Zhuo knocked on the car window. "Abel, what's the matter?" Wang Xiong rolled down the window and spoke with a smile.

"It's nothing. A friend gave me a pack of cigarettes. I don't smoke, so I'm giving it to you guys!"

Wu Zhuo said this and handed the cigarette in his hand to Wang Xiong.

"This..." Wang Xiong looked at the Alishan 1905 handed to him with hesitation.

Alishan 1905 is considered a good cigarette in Taiwan, and the cheapest one costs NT$ a pack.

The one Wu Zhuo brought was even better, costing three thousand Taiwan dollars.

"Here you go! We'll have to deal with each other often in the future, so just think of it as making a friend."

Wu Zhuo smiled and said, "I am an artist, and you are reporters, so we complement each other.

When I have news in the future, I will definitely give priority to you.

Of course, if you take some private photos, please let me know in advance and I will give you a satisfactory price. "

In his previous life, Wu Zhuo read entertainment novels and often found that the protagonists in the novels did not take these reporters seriously at all and would argue with them for no reason.

After traveling through time and working in this industry for a long time, Wu Chao discovered something.

You really can't do that.

Maybe they don't earn much, so the outside world sarcastically gives them the nickname of paparazzi.

But these front-line reporters will more or less have first-hand information about the artists.

If the artists really don't take them seriously or even make them angry, they will definitely not have an easy time.

No matter how good your reputation is, it will be ruined if one or two scandals are spread about you from time to time.

Chen Huiying told Wu Chao and others to try not to offend journalists and the media.

It also set an example for them.

In the 90s, Hong Kong actor Liu Ximing was rumored to have an affair with Zhou Huimin while working together on the movie "The Sword". Liu Ximing publicly expressed his admiration for Zhou Huimin.

At that time, "YES" reported that Ni Zhen was pursuing Zhou Huimin.

How could Ni Zhen endure such humiliation?
So, he used several newspapers and magazines under his control to spread rumors about Liu Ximing for three consecutive years, slandering him as a man who peeped at old grandmothers and was a drunkard and a promiscuous person.

He made a popular TVB actor notorious and forced him to give up the Hong Kong market and start over in Taiwan.

Of course, young reporters definitely don’t have the energy that Ni Zhen has.

But as an artist, who can guarantee that they will not be photographed in something that is inconvenient to be published in the newspaper?

What will happen if this reporter happens to have a bad relationship with you?

There is no doubt that these news will be handed over to media newspapers that dislike you and then exaggerated.

On the contrary, if you have a good relationship with him/her, after taking the photos, he/she will call you and you can pay a small amount of money to buy the photos back. The other party makes money and you avoid the hidden danger of scandal. Why not do it?

So, Wu Chao chose to spend a little money to make friends with these two reporters.

"Haha, Abel, since you said so, it would be unkind of us if we don't appreciate it.

Please rest assured that we are all journalists with strong professional ethics.

I will inform you of any news I take before sending it to the newspaper office."

After hearing what Wu Zhuo said, Wang Xiong laughed and took the cigarette from Wu Zhuo.

"This is my assistant Xiao An. Please leave her phone number here."

Wu Zhuo smiled and introduced his assistant Xiao An to them, asking them to contact Xiao An directly in the future.

In fact, Wu Chao doesn't need to get involved in how to deal with reporters.

This matter mainly depends on the public relations team arranged for him by the company.

The job of public relations is not just to find ways to deal with things after they happen, they also need to prevent possible things from happening.

Like dealing with journalists.

Fahrenheit’s public relations team is an outstanding team, and they have connections with most newspapers and media outlets in Taiwan.

Many reporters send news to newspapers. If there is any news that is unfavorable to Fahrenheit, the public relations team will be the first to know and try to stop it from being published in the newspapers.

For a good PR team, how they handle scandals involving artists is important, but what is more important is to prevent the artist from having scandals reported in the newspapers...

But, the PR team is the PR team, and Wu Chao is himself.

He doesn't want to rely on the company for everything.

It's better to have some informants in the media than nothing.

So, he chose to make friends with these reporters himself.
