The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 451 They're too easy to bully! (Seeking monthly votes)
"The Malaysian government is despicable; they're targeting Chinese people like this!"

"Didn't they say on TV that this isn't the first or second time?"

"Damn it, I have several relatives who are Malaysian Chinese. Could it be that they also experienced these things?"

"That's for sure, there's no way for any Chinese person to avoid it!"

"The Chinese in Malaysia are really pitiful; they want to learn Chinese but there are no schools for them to attend!"

"Hehe, didn't they say on TV that they want to completely prevent the spread of Chinese culture in Malaysia, eradicate Chinese traditions, and completely assimilate the Chinese into indigenous culture!"

"Why would they do this? Doesn't Malaysia claim to be pursuing diversified development? I know that slogan!"

"Hehe, it's very clear on TV that Chinese people are too smart and too good at making money, and they're scared!"

"Our Chinese tradition places great importance on the education of our children and descendants, and we are also very proactive in accumulating wealth!"

"But other ethnic groups in Malaysia live for the moment, spending money as soon as they have it and having no concept of saving. Most of them are lazy and good-for-nothing!"

"Why did they kick Singapore out of the village in the first place? Wasn't it because they were worried that the Chinese in China would become dominant?"

Wu Feng, accompanied by several work assistants, toured the area around the group's building.

My ears were filled almost entirely with news and discussions about Malaysia.

He never expected that the media storm he secretly orchestrated would be so powerful!
A week has passed, and news reports about Malaysia are not only not diminishing in Hong Kong, but are actually becoming more and more intense.

ATV and TVB both produced special programs to report on the issue, and each episode achieved quite good ratings.

The experts and scholars invited to the program were all indignant and spoke vehemently, all making various accusations against Malaysia.

The major newspapers also used all their skills, sending reporters to dig deep into all sorts of trivial matters in Malaysia, just like stirring up a hornet's nest.

Wu Feng quickly realized what was happening.

It's 1992 now, not 2024.

In later generations, the internet wave and the emergence of smartphones brought about an overwhelming flood of information.

I have witnessed almost every kind of strange and even horrific thing, and I have a good understanding of the situation of Chinese people abroad.

Having seen and heard so much, Wu Feng really didn't think that what happened in Malaysia was a big deal.

Malaysia did know to keep it quiet and didn't make a big fuss about it, which is already quite considerate.

He had seen many egregious incidents targeting Chinese people abroad.

However, it was 1992, and he didn't immediately realize it.

During this period, information exchange between countries was not frequent and could not be considered smooth.

Even when you hear about a country creating various incidents targeting Chinese people, the matter has usually been over for a while.

Anger and displeasure cannot be sustained for long.

In fact, Chinese people, whether from mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, are quite sensitive to malicious acts against Chinese people abroad.

At that time, the mainland was eager to integrate into the world system dominated by Europe and the United States, and naturally paid special attention to the outside world's evaluation and attitude towards the Chinese community.

Wu Feng still remembers the shock and anger he felt when he heard about what happened in Indonesia in 1998 when he was a child in his previous life.

Clearly, the feelings of Hong Kong Island residents at this moment are probably similar. Crucially, trade between Hong Kong Island and Malaysia is frequent, and many people have relatives or friends who are Malaysian Chinese.

It can be said that the frenzied reporting by Hong Kong media caused Malaysia's reputation in Hong Kong to plummet, even to the point of being utterly discredited.

Whenever Malaysia is mentioned, people are filled with disdain and resentment!
Many Malaysian tycoons' businesses in Hong Kong have been affected and impacted by public opinion, resulting in significant business losses.

As for listed company stocks, they naturally plummeted to the point where even one's grandmother wouldn't recognize them.

In this climate of public opinion, not a single wealthy Chinese in Hong Kong dared to speak out in their defense.

Even the wealthy Malaysians themselves didn't dare to utter a sound.

As he flipped through the documents he had collected, a cold glint flashed in Wu Feng's eyes.

Originally, his purpose in launching this media storm was simply to help Liang Kun and Jiang Tiansheng out of a predicament.

In fact, the goal was easily achieved!

Perhaps, this is the first time that the governments of both Siam and Malaysia have encountered such a media storm, and they were caught off guard and lost their composure.

They have unexpectedly fallen into the trap set by the media storm, and instead of solving the problem, they seem to be getting deeper and deeper into it.

Wu Feng naturally noticed such a poor performance.

If some other methods are added, wouldn't these two companies lose their composure?
At this point, however, he had a different idea.

The fact that both companies behaved so poorly in the face of the media storm naturally made Wu Feng look down on them.

It is impolite not to reciprocate!
Surely Wu Feng can't just defend and counter-attack without taking the initiative to teach these two teams a lesson they won't forget?

In Wu Feng's mind, no lesson was more profound than the painful impression brought to them by the financial crisis!

Wu Feng's original plan was that once the Asian financial crisis broke out as it would in a normal timeline, he would simply follow the lead of European and American funds and enjoy the spoils.

Of course, he would definitely plan ahead for several years, and when the financial crisis came, he would quietly buy up the good assets held by Southeast Asian countries.

He estimated that the company would definitely reap hundreds of billions of dollars in profits.

Then, just wait and see what happens!

But now, Wu Feng wants to change his mind.

In his previous life, he had read a business novel about rebirth, which left a very deep impression on him.

It explains in great detail why the Asian financial crisis occurred, which is actually closely related to the tightening of investment by the government.

Given that he knew the potential timeline for major problems in the financial markets of Southeast Asian countries, could he have manipulated things behind the scenes?

Prematurely detonating it isn't out of the question; it just depends on whether he can organize a massive flow of funds.

There's something he can now say with a straight face: Why should all the benefits go to the US, while he only gets to drink soup and water?
If the US hadn't triggered a financial crisis in Asia and reaped huge profits, would its financial resources have been able to support its soldiers' actions around the world?

My mind suddenly cleared up!
He felt that he had relied too much on his memories of the future; his own existence had already created a huge butterfly effect.

No one can guarantee that major events that have occurred in normal time will continue to erupt at familiar time points.

The main reason is that he felt that Siam and Malaysia were too easy targets, like easy targets to manipulate.
This time, he plans to focus on Malaysia!
