The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 317 Overturning the table, multiple charges

Zhang Chen listened to Du Zhining's report on the phone and looked at Liu Yifei and couldn't help but sigh.

After listening for a while, he turned on his computer again.

After some operations, I opened Liu Yifei's Weibo.

The latest update was posted a few minutes ago.

As one of the most popular female stars in China, her latest updates were immediately discovered by netizens who had nothing to do during the New Year and were sitting in front of their computers watching melons.

@刘艺菲: I went to meet Bai Zeming this afternoon. It was Baidu that caused Bai Zeming and Li Sisi to be separated. I will never use this kind of crappy company that only knows how to make money and indirectly kill people!
In just a few minutes, this post became a trending search topic and continued to receive tens of thousands of likes per second.

In this incident, apart from director Feng Kuzi, Liu Yifei was the first star to stand up to support Bai Zeming and boycott Baidu.

And as soon as she posted this news, all the stars of the Morning Light series expressed their support in the comment section:

@范兵兵: Add me

@李兵兵: I also think that we cannot allow such companies to continue to harm the public.

@高媛媛: I support Yifei.

@舒昌: Resolutely support user Yifei’s remarks!
@Luo Jin: On behalf of all the students in Class 02 of Beijing Film Academy, I support Yifei!
The comments of these stars were pushed to the top by netizens' likes. Among these people, even Luo Jin, who has no works released yet, has more than 100,000 fans because of Liu Yifei.

The ones with the most fans are Fan Bingbing and Li Bingbing, whose number of fans has exceeded 200 million.

After eliminating duplicates and squeezing out all the water, all the Morning Light stars have more than 1000 million fans.

When this power is concentrated, its effect is extremely terrifying.

As netizens spread the word, fans of the Morning Light series began to compile data for Liu Yifei's post.

When Zhang Chen saw this post, there were already more than 100 million comments and 18 reposts.

The reason why Du Zhining mentioned that something had happened was because he knew that his boss had given instructions on the matter of Baidu, and the purpose was to slowly set up Baidu and then slowly clean it up.

But after Liu Yifei posted this update and other celebrities followed suit, Du Zhining was unsure whether it was instructed by his boss.

After all, he had also heard the gossip spread by some people in the group. This was most likely the future boss lady, and he did not dare to delete the future boss lady's Weibo without authorization.

Just when he was hesitating whether to ask Zhang Chen if things had changed, the star from his own company began to stand on Liu Yifei's side, and the fans who followed also started leaving messages and forwarding them.

Things got out of control.

Now, deleting this Weibo post would be of no use. In the end, Du Zhining could only grit his teeth and call Zhang Chen in the middle of the night.

"There's no need to delete the Weibo post." Zhang Chen looked through the comments under the Weibo post, and the vast majority of netizens expressed their support for Liu Yifei.

"But." Du Zhining felt a little headache. This matter had become a big deal.

"It's nothing to worry about. If it gets out of hand, it gets out of hand." Zhang Chen looked helplessly at Liu Yifei, who was sitting on the sofa with her neck hunched, pretending to count her toes.

In this case, deleting the Weibo post will make these people feel that Weibo has been manipulated by Baidu, which is not conducive to the brand image that Weibo has established in recent years and will put it in opposition to the general public.

Moreover, Liu Yifei really stood on the side of the people this time, helping ordinary people to redress their grievances, which made her image in the public's mind much more "bright and majestic".

This can be considered an unexpected gain.

It's just that the scene was so big that it's a bit difficult to end.

Because of Liu Yifei's post, all of Baidu's public relations will be directed at Liu Yifei.

If it was normal public relations, it would be fine, but I am afraid that the other party will use disgusting means when they are desperate.

It's easy to deal with the shameless tactics of a scoundrel like Feng Kuzi, but if Liu Yifei is forced to endure some despicable smear tactics, Sun Fangping can destroy him with her bare hands.

Besides, he himself would not allow such things to happen, even though the possibility of these things happening remains to be verified.

He also didn't believe that some people could remain rational when faced with such things.

the most important is.

This girl can only be bullied by him.

It's just that he couldn't handle the situation well.

At the beginning, he planned to handle the Baidu issue himself so that he would feel a sense of accomplishment.

If other forces intervene, many people will be scared. If you get a reputation for being tyrannical, it will be difficult to do business in the future.

But things had gone so wrong that Zhang Chen had no choice but to ask for help from an expert.

"Next time, can you tell me before making such a big noise?" Zhang Chen started to flip through his phone's address book, not forgetting to complain to Liu Yifei who was playing ostrich.

"I didn't know that this Weibo post would be forwarded by so many people." Liu Yifei didn't dare to raise her head. She could only lower her head and secretly glance at Zhang Chen.

Just now, when Zhang Chen answered the phone, she also glanced at her computer. The data there really scared her. She wanted to delete the Weibo post, but she felt that it was like trying to cover up the truth. She also felt that what she said was not wrong, so she didn't do it.

When she came to her senses, she heard Zhang Chen say that it didn't need to be deleted, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Just when I was about to ask Zhang Chen what to do next, Zhang Chen had already made a phone call.

"Mr. Li, help me." This Mr. Li is not that Mr. Li.

The fate of the two can be traced back to Moscow's Olympic bid, when Zhang Chen was the listener of his proposal to donate to the Bird's Nest.

three minutes later
"Liu Bu, help me!"

Three minutes later

After making eight calls, Zhang Chen took a deep breath and dialed the last one.

"Auntie, have you seen what happened on the Internet? You have to help me."

This call was quite long, lasting a full half an hour.

Zhang Chen chatted with the other party about family matters for a while before hanging up the phone.

The moment he hung up the phone, Zhang Chen's sad expression changed back to a calm and composed look.

The speed at which his expression changed was so fast that Liu Yifei on the opposite side was dumbfounded.

"You just pretended?"

"What are you pretending to be?" Zhang Chen glanced at her unhappily, "That's what I call true feelings."

Liu Yifei looked at Zhang Chen speechlessly.

If she hadn't just listened to the entire phone calls, she would have believed it.

She really wanted to crack Zhang Chen's head and ask:
What does "knock on the door" mean?

What is "life and death"?

What is "unreasonable"?

What does it mean to be "bullied by bad guys"?

What does "Morning Light Group is going to go bankrupt" mean?

What does "tens of thousands of employees are going to lose their jobs" mean?

When Liu Yifei heard these words just now, she almost screamed out loud, thinking that she had gotten into a big trouble.

As a result, when you look at Zhang Chen's face after he hung up the phone, you can tell that this guy was acting.

With such acting skills, she thinks there is no need to compete for the acting award at Cannes. She should just compete for the Cannes Best Actor Award.

"By the way, didn't you send your movie to Cannes? Why is there no news about it?"

When Liu Yifei saw Zhang Chen move those great experts out, she knew that the problem had been solved.

After all, listening to those names, one more frightening than the other, if these people can't solve the problem, then just lie down and let others slaughter you.

Besides, they are in the right in this matter, and they will not make it difficult for those great gods who come out to uphold justice.

Now that the matter was resolved, she began to care about Zhang Chen's movie. Her mother had a role in this movie!

"I've asked someone to do the public relations."

"PR?"

Liu Yifei tilted her head, very confused.

Aren’t the three major European international film festivals the fairest? Why do we need to do PR?

"Yes, I asked someone to give me some money."

Zhang Chen turned on his computer and started editing emails.

People have been invited, but they have to submit several reports, which will save the people he invited some effort. The sooner this matter is handled, the better.

It would be best to give this matter a characterization before Li Yanhong and Baidu's management have time to react, so as to avoid a situation of repeated tug-of-war.

It's a pity for Feng Kuazi, as he lost someone he could satisfy his sexual desire with.

"No. Will they take your money?"

Liu Yifei stared at Zhang Chen with wide eyes, feeling that her worldview had been strongly impacted.

That's the Cannes Film Festival. Can you buy awards with money?
If the Cannes Film Festival could really use external forces to interfere with the awards, it would not be so popular among filmmakers from so many countries in the world, right?

After so many years of reputation, if there really were a scandal about buying awards, all the accumulation would be gone.

"Of course they can't openly accept the money, but there are many ways to send money, I am arranging it."

Zhang Chen raised the mobile phone in his hand, on which there was a notification that a text message had been sent successfully.

The problem with Baidu has basically been solved, and the next step is to work on the movie.

"Love" and "The Pursuit of Happyness" are the foundation for Chenguang Entertainment to gain a foothold in the domestic and even global film industry.

Of course, money is the foundation of the foundation.

But having more honors can always embellish Zhang Chen's increasingly capitalized identity.

He was born as an artist.

On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Weibo directly banned any public relations news released by Baidu.

Zhang Chen simply overturned the table and didn't give Li Yanhong any chance to defend herself.

However, when Baidu's public relations team began to look for media to speak out, they were told that road construction was underway near Zhongguancun and traffic control was in place, and vehicles would not be allowed to pass for a short period of time.

When they called for help, the people they considered to be their backers began to make excuses.

When they wanted to find Zhang Chen, they were told that Zhang Chen had gone to the United States to attend the Oscars ceremony.

In just one night, Baidu felt isolated and helpless.

Finally, he had no choice but to turn to one of his shareholders - Google.

Because he heard that Zhang Chen had a very good relationship with William, a rising star on Wall Street who was one of Google's shareholders.

The two also had a deep collaboration in the founding of Morning Light Music (USA) and Facebook.

From the time and method of the birth of Weibo and Facebook, it can be seen that the two companies should have in-depth cooperation.

Therefore, the relationship between Zhang Chen and William should be closer than everyone imagines.

Although Li Yanhong didn't know whether William could influence the exhibition decision, as long as he could have a say it would be a thousand times better than the current situation.

"Sergey, can you help me contact Leon? I have something urgent to discuss with him."

"Leon?" On the other end of the phone, Sergei was about to go to sleep. After hearing what Li Yanhong said, he could only force himself to ask, "Isn't he from China? It should be more convenient for you to contact him."

The two of them were separated by the Pacific Ocean, and there was a 12-hour time difference between here and abroad. He really had no time to chat with Li Yanhong.

What's wrong with you, Li Yanhong, not looking for people from your own country, but instead contacting this beautiful Chinese person?

He and Leon had only met a few times. Initially, the company asked Leon for an investment when it was first established. Now, it was sold to William a few years ago, allowing William to successfully become a rising star on Wall Street through their company.

"I"

Li Yanhong was speechless after hearing Sergei's question, but if he could contact you, why would he go through so much trouble to find you, Sergei?
However, he still took a deep breath and suppressed the annoyance in his heart.

"Recently, Baidu launched a product called Tieba. You should know about it, right?"

"Yeah." Sergey had seen reports on this topic when he decided to invest.

“I want this product to become the largest Internet communication platform in our country.”

"That's good."

"But currently the largest communication platform in our country is Weibo."

"You?!" Xierge's voice became much more urgent. "Could you have offended the Morning Light Group?"

"It's not considered as provoking."

"Tell me what happened!"

"That's it." Li Yanhong recounted in detail what had happened in the recent period.

"You!" Sergei really wanted to curse after listening to Li Yanhong's explanation.

When investing in Baidu, it was because the original intention of founding Google was because of attending an open class taught by Li Yanhong, and the two of them also had a connection.

Moreover, Google is also planning to enter the Chinese market. As a shareholder of Baidu, there will be less unnecessary competition after the shareholder officially enters China.

Now Li Yanhong has directly offended China's most powerful Internet company.

Moreover, this company also owns the world's most popular Firefox browser, and even Google has to look to the Morning Glory Group for its favor.

Although Google has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Firefox browser of the Morning Light Group, the key point now is that the money they invested in Baidu in China is about to be wasted!
Baidu is about to go public in the United States in a few months. Once the stock is listed, Google will cash out and leave. After making this wave of money, it will use the Firefox browser to take root in China.

It was originally a good way to make money, but Li Yanhong...
You have to know that the main source of profit comes from the listing of Baidu, and most of Google's profits in China still belong to the M&G Group.

Because the actual controller of Google (China) is Morning Glory Holdings, the parent company of Google can only earn hard-earned money and fame.

In other words, Li Yanhong's behavior has destroyed Google's most promising investment in China.

"Please help me contact Lyon, otherwise your investment will be wasted."

"Okay!" From the tone of his voice, it was clear that Sergei was trying his best to suppress his anger. "Don't cause any more trouble these days. Wait for my news."

Google and the Morning Glory Group have a partnership in China, and coupled with the initial kindness, Sergei felt that it shouldn't be a big problem for him to go to Lyon.

He felt that something should make Leon send a message to Baidu, and this was probably the reason why Leon came to the United States so early.

As long as nothing unexpected happens during this period of time.

However, sometimes things develop much faster than ordinary people imagine.

Especially when a group of extremely influential people work together to promote something.

On February 2005, 2, when people in the film and television circles all over the world focused their attention on the Berlin International Film Festival.

In China, something surprising happened:

"Our station's news: At about 10:00 this morning, a company in Zhongguancun was put under investigation for allegedly defaming important national figures, supporting unscrupulous hospitals that caused deaths, damaging the rights of authors, and infringing on the privacy of many public figures.

The company has now been sealed up and fined 1000 million yuan.

The relevant responsible persons have been transferred to relevant departments for investigation.”

　Which one do you think is the most serious?
