Chapter 28 Warning
"boom..."
"Crash..."
"fuck, damn it, she's a bitch."
The 80% brand-new MacBook could no longer maintain an elegant posture in front of the angry Yang Cheng. The screen, keyboard, and pieces of chips were all torn apart.
Panting heavily, Yang Cheng whipped the corpse at the laptop computer in disbelief. After stomping a few times, she put her hands on the back of the sofa and began to think about countermeasures.
Just now Yang Cheng returned to the room after lunch, and before notifying Hannah, he received a call from his father asking him to go online to read a piece of news, and then the computer became like this.
"Hello???"
Yang Sen's anxious voice came from the handset of the mobile phone, pulling the furious Yang Cheng back to his senses, and he was so busy venting, he forgot that the phone hadn't been hung up yet.
He picked up the phone again, took a deep breath, and calmed down, "I'm sorry Dad, I'm a little excited."
"It's not a little, it's because you're too excited. Such a small matter makes you lose control of your emotions. What big deal can it be?" Yang Sen was very dissatisfied with Yang Cheng's immature performance, and criticized in a calm voice, making Yang Cheng calm down slowly.
"You are right, I will pay attention to it in the future." Yang Cheng apologized sincerely.
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, what's your opinion on this matter?" Yang Sen didn't hold on to the pigtails, and it was important to deal with the business.
Yang Cheng pursed her lips, "Obviously, Megan is a cannon fodder, and someone is behind the scenes."
"This is nonsense." Yang Sen didn't show mercy at all.
Yang Cheng himself realized that this is nonsense after speaking. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. No one is behind. Why did TMZ publish Meghan’s news in the form of an exclusive interview and put it on the front page? I really think that the American people eat melons Too much, too boring to care about everything?
But since this news is placed in such a conspicuous place, it is determined to actively attract the attention of ordinary people. After all, the word red sofa has disappeared for a long time.
The red sofa in Hollywood can be traced back to the First World War. At that time, there were red sofas in the room during the audition. When the audition actors, regardless of men and women, saw the red sofa, it meant that you had to make a choice. Lay down on the sofa with your clothes off and wait for the producer and director’s luck in exchange for the chance to act in a movie. Once you become famous, you should keep your self-esteem and persist in working hard, and you will eventually become famous one day.
At that time, the inconvenient flow of information nourished the living space of this kind of unspoken rules. After all, no celebrity would admit that he had sat on a red sofa after becoming famous. say it.
This tradition has been followed until the 1990s before it gradually disappeared.
But in fact, unspoken rules not only did not disappear, but intensified, pervading all walks of life, especially in Europe and the United States.
Just talking about Hollywood, after the disappearance of the red sofa, the so-called policy at the top and countermeasures at the bottom, in order to better enjoy the convenience brought by power, the bosses have derived a broker system, what do you mean?
Engage in unspoken rules in Hollywood and implement a system within the legal framework that guarantees both parties to the transaction. You can't talk directly, you have to go through a broker (for example, local tyrants in country Z have invested in buying houses in the United States and Canada in recent years).
The main reason is to be on guard. For example, the US police often engage in fishing law enforcement, and the major US media and more independent investigative journalists will deliberately throw out bait to lure those big shots and public figures into taking the bait.
And once the sex scandal is exposed, it will be a series of lawsuits, huge compensation and devaluation of identity and image. Because of the American judicial system and the characteristics of news and public opinion, if Hollywood bigwigs have the desire to "fish", it is the safest The way is through broker introduction.
As for the strange disease, he didn't take it seriously. This kind of thing is vulnerable. As long as he wants to, going to the hospital can smash the rumors.
It is precisely because Yang Cheng is familiar with this routine that he is furious. Judging from the interview that Megan broke the news, it is really unreasonable for him to refuse to pay back when he cheats on others. No one can record and store every sentence. Bar? She said that you promised her a certain condition, but who knows if you actually agreed?
People have always sympathized with the weak. Once a sexual scandal gets on you, it is like a leech. It is not fatal at first, but it will attach to your body and suck blood continuously until you are ruined.
Maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, those who play unspoken rules are full-fledged scum and beasts, but in the eyes of big shots, this Nima is the rules of the game, everyone is playing, you give your body, I will give you what you want, or name or Li, fair trade, don't say anyone is dirty, but there is a kind of person, you obviously get what you want, but as your ambition grows, you want more, if you are not satisfied, I will overturn the table, Don't feel bad about anyone.
You can only admit that you are unlucky when you meet this kind of rascal. Yang Cheng can’t explain it clearly even if he gives him eight mouths. , then he will never even think about turning over.
Yang Cheng suddenly had a sense of sight of himself being Harvey Weinstein, MD, just a few years later, in the power center of Hollywood, how did Harvey end up in his prime? That's it! Familiar formula, familiar taste.
"But are you really okay? The photo is very realistic, and it looks really painful." Yang Sen suddenly asked concerned.
Yang Cheng laughed, "Dad, I just drank too much that day. When I woke up in the morning, I had a terrible headache and rolled on the ground a few times. Did you have that kind of situation when you were young? It's not that serious."
The photos attached to the news were all provided by Megan. There are three consecutive photos. In the photos, Yang Cheng is curled up on the carpet in pain. However, Yang Cheng has been holding her head with her hands and covering her face completely. Either he didn't want to offend the Yang family too much, or Megan didn't take any photos at all.
"Well, I've had it too, and it's fine." Hearing that there was no doubt in Yang Sen's words, Yang Cheng was relieved in his heart. Otherwise, people can't do bad things. Although he didn't do anything wrong with his heart, he has a big secret hidden in his heart, which is more stressful than doing 100 things wrong with his heart.
"Dad, is it possible that Louis Lehman did this? The only person we may offend recently is him, and the Lehman family has a good relationship with Comcast. They acquired Time Warner a few months ago. And Time Warner is the backing of this TMZ website." Yang Cheng was afraid that Yang Sen would hold on to this matter, so she quickly changed the subject.
Yang Cheng's analysis was very reasonable, and Yang Sen's approval came from the phone, "This possibility is not impossible, and I wonder if Lehman has discovered our actions, and for this reason he has drawn Comcast, don't forget, Kang Skater is headquartered in Pennsylvania, and their voice and influence in Pennsylvania is much greater than ours. If Comcast really endorses Lehman and puts pressure on the Pennsylvania prosecutors, it will be very difficult for Catherine Kane. Withstand pressure."
"Then they used my black material to make us overwhelmed?" Yang Cheng asked following Yang Sen's train of thought.
"Obviously isn't it? Let us be in trouble, unable to devote energy to take care of Catherine Kane. If I guess right, the next step, they will get rid of Catherine Kane, so they are on the way to acquire Hershey , the last stumbling block will be removed."
Yang Cheng couldn't believe it, "Then how did they find out that we have tampered with?"
"I don't know, it's not important, and it's actually not difficult. If they have a complete plan for this acquisition and take into account the reactions of all parties, then just find someone to follow our family members." Yang Sen's indifferent words had a steady tone The role of the military spirit, as if everything was under control, gradually eased Yang Cheng's anxiety.
Speaking of it, the Yang family was an innocent disaster, because they were dragged into the vortex because of their fart relationship. Lehman's acquisition of Hershey has nothing to do with the Yang family, but Catherine Kane is a figure that the Yang family must protect, and she must never give up. just give up.
Compared with this matter, Yang Cheng's slander is nothing more than a small witch.
"Then what should I do now? At least the news hasn't revealed my real identity now, but it's spread in the circle, right?" Yang Cheng helplessly kicked the leg of the sofa.
"Hehe, you know it's embarrassing?"
"Dad, are you still in the mood to tease me?" Yang Cheng rolled his eyes, covering his face as if he dared not see anyone.
"Don't worry, I think this may be a warning from Lehman, otherwise we will be in even greater trouble if you directly point out your true identity. Of course, this will force the Yang family to fully participate in the war. Mann can't afford it either."
Yang Cheng's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide in surprise, "No way? Then why didn't you tell me earlier."
"I just thought of it too..." When he said this, Yang Sen's voice was obviously lacking in energy, and he probably felt embarrassed with his guilty conscience.
"Sick to death, so I don't have to worry about it?" Yang Cheng couldn't complain about his father, and shook his head with a wry smile, as if he had been doing this all day.
"I'll give you a definite answer after I check it out. I just thought that the news reported by TMZ is usually reposted by many newspapers and periodicals, but this time when your news came out, none of them reposted it. Don't you think it's strange?"
"You mean someone specifically said hello?"
"I can't think of a second possibility."
"Okay, let me know after you confirm."
"Well, how are you doing over there?"
"I've connected with Lotte, no problem."
"Okay, you should also pay attention to safety recently, in case someone is not offline and jumps over the wall in a hurry, do you want me to send two more people over there?"
"I see. Don't worry, dad. I don't need it for now. With Hansen and Andrew, I can handle it."
"Okay, then I'll hang up. By the way, let me remind you. Your mother also knows about this, and she is very angry. I won't take the blame for you. I will fill the hole I dug myself, good luck!"
Listening to the busy tone from the phone, Yang Cheng couldn't even force a wry smile.
