eems like he's already half-machine, the big brother type! He can even smile! He thought that as an elder brother, he had long since lost his human instincts and become a thousand-year-old iceberg.Od...In the afternoon, despite her aching body, Lin Meng attended the press conference and stated that considering Zhu Yiy's current situation, she was willing to drop the lawsuit against her. Immediately, her action drew praise from reporters. As for some reporters who were still not convinced, they tried to probe into the specific relationship between Lin Meng, Zhu Yiyi, and Rong Ling through roundabout questions. Lin Meng responded with a smile to all of them. It's better to say nothing than to make mistakes.
Later, the Evening News was the first to publish this story. Looking at the newspaper articles praising "Mrs. Chairman of Guangda Group, truly a lady with aristocratic elegance, generous and forgiving, graceful and intelligent," Lin Meng smiled. She wasn't a tolerant person at all! These news media would soon find out that she wasn't so easy to deal with. Wait until tomorrow, they would probably regret it so much, feeling that they shouldn't have published these articles praising her!
Guangdong has been carrying out its plan to bring home furnishings into communities for several days. While there have been some gains, they haven't reached the anticipated abundance yet. After all, it takes time to build trust in products among community residents, and this isn't something that happens overnight!
"Chengyi, I think we can start moving on this side!"
Ruan Chengyi assembled the company's external publicity department for a final round of negotiations and instructions. After confirming everything was in order, Lin Meng, or to be precise, the war between Guangda and the media, began!
Lin Meng, in the name of the wife of Guangda's chairman, held a press conference, demanding that newspapers and media outlets who had previously echoed Zhu Yiy and defamed her publish a public apology. Almost half of the attending reporters changed their expressions. They hadn't expected this! They rushed here with high hopes, but received such a thing! Demanding apologies from the media is tantamount to slapping themselves in the face. For media that serves the common people, it's a humiliating matter. The reporters left disgruntledly. They went back and reported to their editors-in-chief, most of whom also decided to ignore it! They all thought: Who does Lin Meng think she is At best, she's just the wife of Guangda's chairman. With Guangda's current decline, they don't have the power to make so many mainstream media outlets in China publicly apologize to her!
Their silence was within Lin Meng's expectations. Later, the media outlets under Biying Entertainment, controlled by the hawk, published a statement from Guangda's chairman's wife to some media outlets, demanding an apology from them. The letter stated that Guangda's new CEO strongly supported his stepmother's act of denunciation. He felt that what the media did was not only an insult to his stepmother, but also an insult to their Guangda. Because Lin Meng, as the chairman's wife of Guangda, represents the entire Guangda when she goes out!
“What a merchant values most is reputation, and for that, I will spare no expense to support my stepmother!” Ruan Chengyi declared this publicly!
Those media outlets who were asked to apologize naturally weren't happy about it. They liked being able to attack others freely, but admitting their own mistakes felt like stabbing themselves in the back. Something they would avoid at all costs. Right now, they still couldn't quite figure out the relationship between Rong Ling and Lin Meng, and were afraid of Rong Ling operating behind the scenes. They weren't afraid of offending Lin Meng, but accidentally offending Rong Ling was something they absolutely didn't want to happen.
It is rumored that four years ago, there was a media war against Rong Ling where the media went too far and was severely punished. Several well-known leading media outlets eventually disappeared quietly. This experience, although not 100% confirmable, is enough to make people feel chills and be wary! However, if they were just going to apologize to a woman like this, these media people still thought it was too degrading. So, drag――
Regarding By-Wing Entertainment's statement made on behalf of Lin Meng, they initially chose to remain silent and observe, waiting to see what actions Rong Ling would take after their inaction.
Biyì Entertainment is already a top-tier entertainment company in China, and the several types of publications it has released have considerable influence domestically. At first glance, some members of the public saw this report. Beauty is always the most attractive, especially when that beauty frequently appears in people's field of vision. People instinctively want to continue paying attention. Upon further inspection, it seems as if they are declaring war on most media outlets, and this piques even more interest. After all, fueling excitement is human nature. This is just like when Afghanistan fought with the United States - although everyone knew that in peacetime, being so excited about a war was inappropriate, they still couldn't help but secretly hope for "Let them fight, let them fight!" Now, it's the same thing!
Biyix Entertainment is now essentially Lin Meng's go-to media spokesperson, naturally crafting content that maximizes her benefits. Besides the basic introduction of Lin Meng and her entanglements with entertainment media, the statement from Biyix's current CEO, Ruan Chengyi, is a newly added highlight!
Ruan Chengyi is a handsome guy, and handsome guys are the easiest to attract women of all ages. Just looking at Ruan Chengyi's deep and handsome face, those women would have to take a few more glances. Looking like this, those women discovered that this Guangda seems quite familiar to them, as if they had seen it in the large advertisement for Hengfu in their community these past few days!
In the newspaper, based on a fair assessment, it subtly praised Guangda's down-to-earth approach and steady asset growth. This further highlighted Guangda's solid foundation. When buying goods, especially home furnishings, which represent the face of your home, you must be meticulous. Otherwise, when guests come over, you won't be able to proudly introduce your home decor. Since the newspaper reported Guangda in such a positive light, buying their products seems like a safe bet.
At the same time, GOME also launched a price war. Price wars are no longer a secret business tactic in this commercial battle. Now everyone knows well-known Haier Appliances, which was just a small electronic factory at first. However, from the late 1980s to the 1990s, Haier conducted three large-scale price cuts, leading the way for other industries. Each price cut by Haier stirred up the home appliance industry. Every time Haier cut prices, it became the focus of the global color TV industry. Every price cut brought almost an inevitable increase in sales and market share for Haier. Thanks to this extraordinary courage and bold reform measures, Haier finally succeeded in competing with foreign brands that entered the domestic market for market share. In the end, they stood firm alongside those world-renowned brands, gaining a strong customer base of their own.
The profit margins in home furnishing are substantial, similar to the television industry's boom in the past. Now, Guangda needs to do is forsake most of the profits and adopt a strategy of low prices and high volume. They will use price wars to establish their brand in the hearts of consumers, turning these consumers into loyal customers.
People in China have always liked to bargain hunt. If product A is cheaper than product B, even by just a few cents, Chinese people tend to choose product A. This is still true today! The newspaper has been reporting so positively about Guangda, and it's believed that the quality should be good. Moreover, Guangda offers various promotions, such as 80% off, 70% off, or buy three thousand and get three hundred free. These promotions are sure to entice women who manage the household finances. Not to mention, Guangda also offers a three-guarantee service: if you're not satisfied, they offer a refund within a week. For some products, Guangda even launched a "free trial, buy only if you're satisfied" campaign. It's enough to make people excited and take action!
On the day that Nguyen Chengyi released his statement of support, the daily sales for the neighborhood home improvement project saw a significant increase. The staff responsible for the statistics were excited, as were Nguyen Chengyi and Nguyen Chinhui, and even Lin Meng was thrilled. This preliminary indication showed that their plan was a success!
Then let's keep going!
Rong Ling won't take action, that's for sure, and it's impossible in the short term! What Lin Meng needs to utilize is a media war to give Guang Da's products free publicity. It would be ridiculous to let Rong Ling, this deity, come out and solve everything quickly! Right now, Guang Da is probably hoping for as much chaos as possible so that the hype level can also be higher, and the income rate will follow suit!
After being challenged by the media, Lin Meng's agency, Biyi Entertainment, launched a counter-attack the next day. Their sharp and witty words subtly mocked the media for hiding like turtles.
As a well-known media brand, if you make a mistake but lack the grace to admit it, what is there left for people to trust and follow
This is already hitting the credibility of those war-proclaimed media outlets! Media personnel are most sensitive to this, they bear it time and again, but "it doesn't concern me, so I can just hang high," "once things concern themselves, then naturally they cannot stand idly by!" Finally, several media outlets secretly negotiated and decided to launch a test stone, or perhaps a suicide squad, to test Rong Ling's reaction! The final reaction was very good, there was no movement from Rong Ling's side at all!
There you go!
It's time to cheer! It's time to celebrate!
Biyix Entertainment is a joke! "Enemies in the same industry," other entertainment media outlets have long disliked Biyix and are eager to take advantage of this opportunity to strike it down. Furthermore, many media outlets criticized Lin Meng before. If they unite, launching a massive attack, even if Biyix has a strong influence, "one against many" means that Biyix Entertainment will be overwhelmed.
Newspapers, magazines—dailies, weeklies, monthlies, you name it—have all jumped into the fray, engaging in a fierce competition against each other to see who can outdo the others. They're determined to put an end to Yiwu’s entertainment empire, to publicly humiliate him and force him to apologize.
Their rebuttal statements were largely consistent, claiming they were merely reporting the facts at the time. If there was any harm caused to the chairman's wife of Guangda Group, it could only be considered an unintentional oversight! They believed that as a media outlet, they had the right to comment! And Biyi Entertainment taking sides with Guangda Group's chairman's wife in this matter seemed to have the suspicion of deliberately creating hype.
Even if you want to increase the sales volume of your business, you shouldn't use such methods. I warn Ms. Chairman, don't be used by some malicious media outlets. Don't let yourself be used as a pawn!
This is a direct quote from a mainstream media outlet!
They don't understand the relationship between Lin Meng and Xiao Qiang, so they intend to create a rift between Lin Meng and Biyi Entertainment. Ideally, Lin Meng would get angry and sever ties with Biyi Entertainment in a fit of rage, then things would quiet down. This way, they could rest easy and simultaneously clarify their previous inaction to the readers.
But in reality, they are the ones being used as pawns! When they begin to fight back with their usual arrogance, pride and lack of self-reflection, and a refusal to admit fault, they are dragged down into the river and lose the right to climb ashore. Unless they swallow their pride and formally apologize to Lin Meng, this will inevitably become a media tug-of-war. Because, they are actually facing Biyi Entertainment, which is not just a single entertainment company; it belongs to the powerful conglomerate Shuangmu. With Shuangmu's vast financial resources, could they possibly care about the potential losses Biyi might incur during this conflict! Or perhaps, this isn't even considered a loss at all! Being besieged by multiple media outlets and standing on the precipice of public opinion, from another perspective, this is also an excellent opportunity to attract audience attention! Shuangmu can fully utilize this opportunity to promote their actors and stars, garnering more attention and pushing them to greater heights!
This can totally create a win-win situation!
All in all, it's up to us. It depends on how skillfully Biyi responds to this situation!
As long as Lin Meng and Xiao Qiang's united front holds, then this battle will basically be a war of attrition.
Biyi Entertainment, of course, responded to those media outlets quite bluntly.
I don't know, it turns out that merely acting on duty and proclaiming justice would lead to so much attack. Everyone has eyes to see, who is right and who is wrong, shouldn't this be clear! Now some media outlets distort black and white, is it that the world is declining, people are becoming corrupt, or are they simply angry and reckless!
Some media outlets, while not naming names, those who know will naturally know who they're talking about!
All those media outlets are naturally going all out against BiYi Entertainment. They think that having a showdown with BiYi Entertainment won't necessarily lead to any major breakthroughs, so they're looking for another way in - perhaps through Lin Meng. If they could get Lin Meng to switch sides, wouldn't that be amazing It would be like slapping BiYi Entertainment right in the face!
Those media outlets began to reach out, trying to contact Lin Meng. But without exception, they were all rejected. Those journalists didn't give up though, persisting and believing that there would be a day of success!
For so many companies coming together to fight side by side, they are very confident in the final outcome.
At the beginning, B-Side Entertainment's performance seemed truly weak, but this was entirely to encourage those who were targeted by the war-mongering media, so that under the illusion of "victory in sight," they would make even more reckless counterattacks.
This side of Biyi actually couldn't possibly be genuinely alone and weak. If that were the case, then Xiaoxiao's years of effort would have truly been a failure. Everyone in this circle mixes around and always manages to make some friends, or rather, interest groups. So finding a few media outlets to publish voices similar to Biyi's wouldn't be difficult at all!To expect the media that declared war to ultimately end up on one side while the other is completely defeated is somewhat naive! Perhaps they are getting old, and after so many years of peace and smooth sailing, they have lost their sense of crisis. They still fall into traps designed by Rong Ling and Xiaoxiao as if nothing had changed.
Now the situation seems unfavorable to them, but it's just an illusion. Few people see through this illusion, including He Ya from the He family!
He Ya has been keeping a low profile for some time now. During these days when Zhuo Yiyi is triumphant, this woman cleverly wants to take advantage of the situation when Lin Meng and Zhuo Yiyi are "fighting" each other, she comes out on top!
In her view, Zhu Yiy was both clever and bold, but also foolish. Her intelligence and boldness lay in the fact that she actually thought of stealing Rong Ling's sperm, hiding it away, and performing artificial insemination at an opportune time, thus effortlessly becoming pregnant with Rong Ling's child. This was something He Ya herself had struggled for years to achieve, yet had failed to accomplish. But her foolishness lay in her impatience; she jumped out prematurely, declaring war on Lin Mengxuan before the child was even stable. She was also foolish because she couldn't see clearly!
He Ya comes from a prominent family, and she understands the rules of such families better than anyone. Even with Zhuo Yiyi's identity, even if her mother is favored due to having a son who is high-ranking, she wouldn't be able to enter the Rong family. If every woman could gain entry to the Rong family through such means, then they would truly be underestimating those prominent families! What year is it now A small child could still bring so much glory!
This is an era of competition based on birth and family background. Marriages prioritize the mutual benefits that each partner can bring to their respective families. Therefore, among wealthy and influential families, there are many couples who appear harmonious on the surface but are actually emotionally distant. Their union is not based on love, but solely on interests!
Zoe Yi, she has a little bit of background. Her relative works as a low-ranking official in the government. But to those wealthy and powerful families, that's just like a small soldier, not enough to be considered!
Zuo Yiy, it's impossible for her to marry into the Rong family! Zuo Yiy is nothing but a pawn used by Old Master Rong to suppress Lin Meng!
Through this incident, He's matriarch and several other leading women came to a consensus that the relationship between Rong Ling and Rong Lao Ye was not good. It seemed that Rong Lao Ye was dealing with Rong Ling, this was their conclusion after careful consideration. Recently, news from a certain special channel revealed that there have been consecutive personnel changes within the YADONG Group, even the fall of a high-ranking official promoted by Rong Ling himself, which also served as evidence! Rong Lao Ye must have taken action! This means that Rong Ling's position is actually in danger!
The position of the head of the Rong family, is how glorious it is, and the wealth and fame that follow are so dazzling. Zhuo Yiy feels that even a person can't give up such glory. Rong Ling needs a powerful external aid, and that's the power of his wife's family! If they have the support of the He family, then Old Master Rong's attack would basically be safe!
He Ya felt she now had the opportunity to showcase her capital! Looking at all the noble ladies of City B, who could compare to her! In terms of closeness, Rong Ling should undoubtedly choose her; in terms of family background, the He family has always been at the top!
She is the most suitable wife for him!
Perhaps, this time with the media hounding Lin Meng, Rong Ling's inaction has already revealed his stance! If Rong Ling were to intervene in Lin Meng's situation again, he might anger the powerful forces of her future family. He might also provoke Rong Sanbo, the leader of the Rong family army and a long-time supporter of him. Through special channels, it was learned that there seems to be an unbreakable conflict between Rong Sanbo and Lin Meng!
Then, it was her turn to step up!
It's a pity that Zhu Yiyin left too quickly, she didn't even get to seriously hurt Lin Meng before being sent out of the country and completely losing her role. It's also a shame that Lin Chengyou is so stubborn, even in this situation, he hasn't died yet. Otherwise, if her plan had actually been implemented, the success rate would have been over 90%!
But now it's also a good time!
He Ya comforted herself like this!
While Lin Meng was foolishly declaring war on the media and playing with fire, if she could successfully orchestrate a humiliation of Rong, then she could smoothly marry into the Rong family. After all, a woman from the He family wouldn't be trifled with. Caught red-handed under everyone's watchful eyes, she would inevitably have to make a marriage commitment to take responsibility! Not to mention, she had a backup plan...
He Ya's mind drifted back to the anonymous package delivered to her a month ago. Inside, there was nothing but a single printed page. But those words were anything but ordinary.
"Sperm bank", "Zoe Yiyi", "private account", this is definitely something that could get your heart racing!
Due to her sensitivity stemming from her aristocratic upbringing, she immediately confided in Madam He of the He family. Madam He, a seasoned and experienced woman, immediately used all her resources to investigate. As a result, she managed to obtain some samples just before the events involving Zhuo Yiyin broke out, that is, before Rong Ling's men could reach the sperm bank and destroy the stored sperm!
The danger here is truly indescribable to outsiders. For this, the He family paid a considerable sum of money to the sperm bank manager to keep silent about it!
Wealth and honor are sought amidst peril!
Old Mrs. He has always believed this! And now, riches and honor are truly not far off.
The opportunity, it's also coming right away!
Every time she thought about that anonymous package, He Ya would always feel a little uneasy. Her heart would grow cold, and she'd have the feeling of being watched. It was as if everything she did was under that person's scrutiny! She had no idea who sent the package or what their intentions were.
Lurking in the shadows, will it be a cold-blooded viper Or is someone, for some hidden reason, giving her a chance out of sheer benevolence
No matter what, she's truly not willing to wait any longer!ng uncomfortably. When she saw Rong Ling suddenly appear, her small mouth formed a slight circle of surprise, and her heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected him to come back!Rong Ling glared at her...
