Return to Hong Kong Island for a Century

Chapter 239 Who Benefited and Who is the Suspect? (Third Update, 3000+ words)

"Mr. Tian, ​​what is your assessment of the riot at the Third Boss's place?"

"Is there any connection between the Temple Run novel written by Uncle Three and the temple of the Third Master?"

"Is the content described in Uncle Three's Ghost Blows Out the Light true?" The reporters swarmed around, asking all sorts of questions, including some foreign reporters!
"sorry!"

"I have no comment on these matters!"

"Everyone, please make way, don't delay our work!" Tian Jiahui roughly knew what had happened, and he believed that the boss was responsible.

Although there is no evidence, Tian Jiahui is certain that he is involved with the boss!
People who come to work at Parkson are always surrounded by these reporters.

When Tian Jiahui arrived at the company, he saw the other employees being surrounded by reporters.

Ordinary employees had no idea what had happened, so they had nothing to say and dared not speak out.

When people arrived, Tian Jiahui instructed his employees to put up promotional posters for BMW motorcycles at the entrance.

BMW motorcycles' promotional posters consist of two large photos.

One of the photos shows Ah Long endorsing a 125cc motorcycle.

Ah Long is wearing a white suit, and the background of the poster is a coastal highway with the sea in the background.

Ah Long leaned against a red 125cc motorcycle.

He gave a thumbs-up to the camera, and next to it was a line of large text.

I love BMW!

It's that simple and straightforward.

The other poster is Xiaosi's BMW motorcycle promotional poster.

The background is under a tree, and Xiao Si is dressed like she is from Temple Run, sitting on a motorcycle with her hands on the handlebars!

There were only three simple words next to it: I like it!

Two posters were placed at the entrance of Parkson Department Store.

Reporters saw Parkson employees put up the posters and then take pictures while praising them.

"Wow!"

"This is what happened!"

"I thought I went to the wrong place this morning!"

"There must be hundreds of reporters!"

"Wow, did you see that blonde female reporter in the blue dress? She's so beautiful!"

"Yeah yeah!"

"And that one with black hair, those long legs."

"And that reporter from the notebook side, she's really pretty too."

"Has the boss been sued again?"

"That can't be right! Look at the clothes these reporters are wearing, they're all from major international media outlets!"

"The police have arrived!"

"Manager Tian, ​​do you know what happened?" The employees of Parkson Company asked all at once, looking at the huge crowd of reporters outside!
"I do not know either!"

"Something must have happened!" Tian Jiahui was too lazy to explain to the employees, because he didn't know much about it himself.

Not only were there many reporters gathered at Parkson Department Store, but there were also many reporters gathered downstairs at the magazine office.

Liu Jiale received phone calls all morning, and when he arrived at the company, he was surrounded by reporters, but fortunately the property management blocked them.

After arriving at the company, the phone kept ringing. It was Lucas calling, and a publisher from America was very interested in the National Treasure volume of the novel.

He also received a call from Golden Harvest, asking him to retain the film rights to "National Treasure," and that Mr. Zou would personally discuss the details with the boss later.

They called from Cinema City, requesting to see the boss.

RTV (Rediffusion Television) also called, wanting to interview the boss.

Local publishers in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and even small book publishers have expressed their willingness to publish the novel Temple Run, and they are willing to pay upon signing a contract.

But Liu Jiale rejected them all!
Li Song looked very smart today, wearing a custom-made suit.

Li Song certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to wear clothes from someone else's brand.

Wouldn't that be advertising for someone else?

Li Song arrived at the entrance of Parkson Department Store under the escort of bodyguards.

As soon as the reporters saw Li Song arrive, they swarmed around him.

Fortunately, Jiahao added two more security teams to Parkson Company today.

"Please make way, don't block the traffic here."

"I'll go to the door. You can ask me anything." Li Song said as he arrived at the door, escorted by his bodyguards and security personnel from Parkson Company.

Li Song stood next to Ah Long's promotional poster.

"If you're taking pictures, please include this one on the side!"

"If I see a newspaper that doesn't include this in its photo, I won't give any more interviews to them!" Li Song openly allowed the reporter to take a picture of him and Ah Long together in the promotional poster!
When these reporters heard Li Song's request, they showered him with praise and took many photos!

Li Song also gave a thumbs up and struck a pose.

"Now everyone can ask questions!" Li Song felt like he was being blinded by the light, and suddenly remembered that optical equipment would also be a huge industry in the future.

"Mr. Li, are you aware of what's going on at the Third Master's Temple?" a reporter quickly asked.

"Of course, I was working on the sales plan for BMW motorcycles last night when I received a call from Lucas."

"I learned about what happened on the Third Master's side from him!" "But I solemnly declare here that any resemblance to actual events or persons in this novel is purely coincidental!" Li Song didn't forget to advertise BMW motorcycles while speaking.

These reporters quickly picked up their pens and wrote a long article praising Li Song, never suspecting that he was advertising; they genuinely thought he was developing a sales plan for BMW motorcycles.

"So, Mr. Li, what is your opinion on this matter?" a reporter asked again.

"I have no comment on this matter!"

"Because until now, I still don't know what exactly happened!" Li Song answered while striking a pose!
"Mr. Li, what inspired you to write this novel?"

"There are many, including Journey to the Center of the Earth and Treasure Island!" The two novels Li Song mentioned existed in the last century.

Journey to the Center of the Earth was published in 1864, and Treasure Island in 1881.

"So what are your thoughts on the movie posters that appeared at the scene of the incident?"

"Moreover, the temple image in the background of the movie's promotional poster is very similar to the temple where the incident occurred!"

"Mr. Li, do you know something?"

"Mr. Li, is the content in your second novel, National Treasure, true?"

"Did the America really stockpile a treasure trove during the American Civil War in preparation for a possible defeat?" The reporters bombarded him with questions!

"Everyone, one by one. This beautiful reporter, what's your question?" Li Song saw a tall, long-legged Eastern European female reporter.

"Mr. Li, I'm a reporter from AFP. Do you have anything to say about the posters that appeared at the scene of the incident?" the female reporter asked quickly.

"I'm sorry, I cannot confirm the authenticity of this message!"

"And the movie posters are all distributed for free."

"They might very well have been taken by the tourists to the third leader's side!"

"A poster doesn't prove anything, especially a movie poster!" Li Song said.
Before the reporter could ask another question, Li Song pointed to another reporter: "Mr. Li, may I ask how you came up with the idea of ​​writing the novel 'National Treasure'?"

"imaginary!"

"Novels are all fiction!"

"Then why are there such coincidences between the things in the novel and reality?"

"As I said before, any resemblance to actual events or persons in the novel is purely coincidental!"

"Isn't Mr. Li's explanation a bit far-fetched?"

"No, no, no, novels are also based on some logic from reality!"

"Therefore, it is normal for some realistic content to appear."

"Mr. Li, you once predicted that this movie would gross over $500 million. Could you have foreseen these things?"

"No, I said at the time that the $500 million figure was just hype."

"If I were to say tens of millions of dollars, it wouldn't be as eye-catching as five hundred million dollars!"

"This is also a common practice in the film industry; they always create buzz when a movie is about to be released."

"Please stop focusing on the temple issue; everything must be based on evidence!"

"I'm just an honest and upright businessman!"

“My passport has no record of me leaving the country, and I don’t even know where this temple you’re talking about is!”

"And I believe that if a stranger comes to the temple, it will easily attract attention!"

"Then I have a bold guess!"

"I'm just guessing, but it was one of the third leader's own people who did it."

"If this hadn't happened, would the Third Master's army have been able to seal off the temple?" Li Song began to guide public opinion.

Historically, this temple was later taken over and excavated by the third leader.

This temple originally belonged to the local people!
"Mr. Li, are you saying this is a complete conspiracy?" The reporter astutely grasped the meaning behind Li Song's statement.

I was just guessing!

"You should investigate who this temple actually belongs to!"

"So who got the things from the temple now?!"

"If we compare this to a case, then who is the biggest beneficiary?"

"Could the evidence that appeared at the crime scene be a distraction by the real perpetrator?" Li Song asked again.

"Mr. Li...!"

"That concludes today's interview. I still have a lot of work to do."

"Novels are just a side job for me; my real identity is that of an entrepreneur."

"My goal is to make our company one of the world's top 50!" Li Song immediately launched into a long-winded statement!

"I have tens of thousands of patents under my name!"

"The patent application fee alone is over 100 million Hong Kong dollars!"

"I don't want people to see me as a novelist, but as an entrepreneur!"

"Please don't believe in fictional things like novels!"

"It was all just something I imagined while sitting alone in the room!" Li Song began to promote himself.

"To be honest, I've prepared nine storylines for 'The Mystery of Treasure,' including the Temple of the Sun in South America and Hitler's treasure during World War II. The outline for the work was prepared months ago!"

"So please don't believe anything in novels."
