silent farm

Chapter 131 The Farce Ends
In the following time, Li Sheng was busy taking Chen Bo and the others to play inside and outside the farm. They drilled into the virgin rainforest to experience the real primitive world; Visited Belém and Rio to experience two completely different Brazilian humanities.

When Li Sheng was busy entertaining friends, Anthony was not idle either. He sued more than a dozen media outlets including the TV network and Lvhe Organization to court, accusing them of slandering Silent Farm and Li Sheng.

At this time, there was a gloomy cloud in the headquarters of the TV network.The former young and promising vice president Verlinton Cabra had been taken away by the police, and the old president who had been inactive had to come back to sit in charge.

But the current situation is very unfavorable for the network.The old president of Eldo is also thinking "what should I do"?
The kidnapping case released by the Palentines police at a press conference turned the news about illegal poaching at Silent Farm into a deliberate fake news.And this briefing on the case dealt a particularly serious blow to the TV network.

Because the evidence found by the Palentines police showed that one of the masterminds who kidnapped the two indigenous girls was the vice president of the TV network.

To make matters worse for the network, Verlinton Cabra actually admitted to conspiring with others to bring down Silent Farm.Green and the organization were also involved.The Green and the organization were not involved too deeply, but there is also evidence that the Brazilian Green and the organization played a certain role in promoting it.

As for Verlinton Cabra's other crimes, it's nothing to the network.But a TV station produces fake news, and the world's most famous environmental organization cooperates with poachers.When these two things are connected, it becomes very fatal.It has attracted so much attention that the TV network has no choice but to divert their attention.

The previous experts have just calmed down, and the reputation of the TV network has not yet recovered. At this time, the scandal of high-level fake news for revenge broke out again.For a large media like the TV network, it was a devastating blow.

In fact, every media is doing fake news, but it is always specious, making people unable to catch it.But this time the TV network did not have such good luck, and was caught by Silent Farm.

A court summons has been sent to his desk.What the TV network did this time is too obvious, and all the evidence on the surface is not good for the TV network.Some competitors began to link the expert door incident with the fact that the vice president made fake news again, almost stating that making fake news is a tradition of TV networks.Now all the crisis public relations they do are not working.

Silent Farm brought the TV network as the first defendant in court. As long as this case is not over, they will always wear the hat of making fake news.If the court rules against them, the rivals won't let the networks go.Once the hat of fake news is worn, the TV network may only be able to do gossip programs in the future.This is something neither the board nor he will allow to happen.

Eldor pressed a button on his desk.After a while, his charming secretary knocked on the door and came in.

Today, he was not in the mood to admire the secretary's powerful figure, but said in a deep voice, "Let Rustin from the news department come to me."

Soon, the person he wanted to meet came. It was a bald fat man with golden eyes, two and a half layers of chin, and a belly so big that people felt sorry for his belt.

"Mr. Eldo, I'm here." The fat man stood cautiously one and a half meters away from the desk.

Eldo wanted to smash the bastard to death with a pen holder.Although not primarily his responsibility, he is the head of the news department, and the problem lies with the news department.

Erdo suppressed the urge to do something, and said in a deep voice, "I think you know what happened recently." He didn't even ask the other party to sit down, but this still couldn't express his dissatisfaction. "I want to know, how did you deal with this matter during this time?"

Seeing this, Ruo Siting knew that the boss of the company was very dissatisfied with himself and the news department, but he dared not protest because he had no excuses.The biggest excuse has already been said, but it doesn't work.As the head of the news department, if he didn't agree, even the vice president couldn't force him to post unverified news.

And the mistake he made was to cater too much to the future president in order to flatter him.The network's biggest mistake was reporting the Silent Farm poaching incident in a positive tone, and even convicting and hating Silent Farm in the report.The continuous reports at the beginning were really cool, but it was those reports that made the TV network fall into the quagmire now, and it was difficult to get out.For these, he needs to take responsibility within the network.

Knowing that he can no longer make excuses now, he said calmly: "We have joined forces with other media to report on the deforestation incident at Silent Farm to let the audience know that they have criminal records. At the same time, we also expressed to the audience in the program Exaggerated apology. I think the audience will accept our apology."

Eldor looked at him coldly, and after he finished speaking, he asked, "What about Silent Farm and that Chinese man?"

"..." Fatty was speechless for a moment.He didn't even understand what the President was talking about.

Eldo couldn't bear it anymore, picked up the pen holder at a speed that would be impossible even if he was 20 years younger, and hit the fat man on the head: "Stupid? Can the audience sue you? Apologize to the audience? Why don't you apologize to that The Huaxia people apologize? Are you making fake news for the audience? Bastard."

After scolding, he felt dizzy and sat down.Eldo felt that he was really old.He took several deep breaths before saying in a cold voice: "Go, solemnly apologize to that damned farm and that damned Chinese man in the news headlines. You must have a correct attitude!"

"Huh?" Apologizing to someone in the headlines is unprecedented on any TV station in the world.

"Can't understand people's words? Why don't you go soon?"

Fatty ran the shit out of Eldo's office.

Eldo pinched his temples, feeling restless.He also doesn't want to apologize, which would make the network a laughing stock in the media.But if they don't even make an apology, the reputation of the TV network will really be ruined, and maybe the business license will be revoked for a while.That's the real disaster.

You must know that the TV network is actually the main propaganda platform for some politicians to run for election. If this platform loses credibility because of this incident.Those politicians would literally kill him.

In fact, if you apologize immediately after the fake news is exposed, you only need to make an announcement, but it doesn't work now.Only with the most correct attitude can he win the sympathy of the people, so that he can operate easily.

Of course, it would be best if that damned farm and the Huaxia people could withdraw the indictment.

In Silent Farm, Chen Bo and the others have already left.Li Sheng lived a normal life again.

Tia is not staying at home, she is busy with Jirolobura's affairs.The Jiluoluo tribe decided to move out of the forest, and they chose the edge of the forest in the South Zone as their new home.There is a stream with a forest as its source, which is similar to their previous living environment.Tia acts as a translator and basically stays there as a bridge between the workers who help them build the tree house and clear the land.

It seemed that the whole farm was busy, the school was about to start, Anthony was making final preparations, and Zhang Feng was getting ready to harvest grain.Thomas is also busy with his leisure travel project-doing the post-production of Yali's first group of artistic photos.Babur and Zhang Dingbian are also busy training.

It seems that he is the most leisurely in the whole farm.However, he also found that the atmosphere on the farm seemed to be much better. At least the workers warmed up a lot with each other. This was probably the effect of the bonfire party.

This is something to be happy about.But something that made him happier came soon.

Anthony called out of the blue and asked him to watch the news from the TV network.

The TV network temporarily intervened in the news, and admitted with a very sincere attitude that it did not report false news on the premise of confirming the accuracy of the news.And made it clear that I would like to express my most heartfelt apology to Silent Farm and Li Sheng.

Li Sheng looked at the female anchor who stood up and bowed and showed her deep career line. It was this woman who convicted Silent Farm before.Now that she apologized so sincerely and even bowed, he felt that she probably wanted to show the gap in her chest.

But Anthony soon came over and made a proposal to him: "Lee, I think we can drop the lawsuit against the network."

Li Sheng frowned and asked, "Just because they apologized?"

"Yes. We accept their apology and withdraw the lawsuit. This is the best result. If we don't accept it and appear aggressive, they will get sympathy from the audience. Even if we win the lawsuit in the end, what we get is nothing more than an apology. They are already doing this now, and they are doing it thoroughly."

Anthony analyzed: "Isn't this an apology what we want? With such an apology, our reputation has been opened, and the previous notoriety will dissipate. And if we continue to entangle with them, we may not be able to get more benefits .The claim for compensation for economic loss, even if supported by the court, is unlikely to be very large. But it will waste a lot of our time and energy. And it will also allow the media to paint us as a greedy and unforgiving image."

Although Li Sheng was a little unwilling, he felt that his analysis made sense.Even if Silent Farm wins the lawsuit in the end, he won't get much compensation.He really doesn't care about that little money now.All he wanted was an apology.Now that the other party has apologized, it seems pointless to continue to sue.

However, he can let the TV network go, but the media and the green organization that are still holding on can't let it go: "Then remove the TV network from the list of defendants." He stood up and said with a sneer. "Unless it's a clear apology for making fake news against us, we don't accept it. The network is a model."

Anthony nodded and said: "The TV network has indeed set an example. We can claim that the other defendants in the lawsuit should also make the same sincere apology. The TV network is the strongest media among the defendants we sued. They have all relented, I think Other media will follow suit. As for Lvhe Organization, I think they will also give in soon. I heard that they have changed the person in charge.”

Things really happened as Anthony said.The apologies from the TV network confirmed that they reported fake news, and the media is not dead set.

Otherwise, as long as there is a court session in the future, these media competitors will not let go of the opportunity.Every time there is a court session, their fake news hats are put back on their heads.Even if they want to seek fame through litigation, they definitely don't want that kind of reputation.

As long as those media are not stupid, they all know that apologizing now is the best choice for them.Apologizing now can win the appreciation of the audience or readers.At least their performance can be corrected if they know their mistakes, and it will be easier to do public relations in the future.

So the dozen or so media that were sued by Li Sheng all apologized, and Lvhe Organization was no exception. They issued an announcement to apologize, and explained that the previous actions were caused by the irresponsibility of the previous person in charge.Although Luhe's announcement was suspected of shirking responsibility, Li Sheng didn't have time to deal with them.

Regardless of whether their apology is sincere or not, Li Sheng's goal has been achieved.As for whether he offended the media, he didn't bother to care about it.

Because he is planning with Fernando how to open the European market.

Speaking of this brief public relations crisis, the name Silent Farm has penetrated into the European folk.Disgusted at first, only to find out later that it was wrong.This made many Europeans have a good impression of Silent Farm because of subconscious guilt, at least reversing the impact of deforestation on Silent Farm last time.

Fernando wanted to let the farm do more positive publicity while the heat was still there, but he asked Li Sheng to send him some products from Silent Farm for test sales.

The results also proved that his plan was quite successful and his contacts were very extensive.Under his promotion, Silent Farm's products quickly landed in Europe, and under his operation, they quickly occupied a place.
