From this ssage, he learned more of the inside story. They obviously knew that Paradise Group was closely watching the progress of the matter, and to prevent sabotage and catch their opponent off guard, they chose to hold the press conference in the middle of the night! Paradise Group would definitely analyze this, so they needed to continue to release a smokescreen. When inviting the dia, they said the official conference would be at midnight. They can invite dia, and Paradise Group people could get news from journalists. They can just spread this around, not completely avoiding Paradise Group, but creating a half-hour ti gap, which could change a lot of things!
Clearly, under normal circumstances, to secure a favorable position and to prepare ahead, the dia journalists who strive for news would definitely arrive early at the press conference location. By eleven thirty, even if not everyone was present, most should be there. Then suddenly hold the prepared early conference! Even at that ti, Paradise Group would receive the news, thinking they have an hour to respond, but they would definitely be hindered within half an hour.
"The press conference is confird for midnight. dia friends have complaints, but this revelation will be significant, so quite a few journalists will still attend. I’m now chasing them for the location!"
Lin Fenni posted another new ssage in the group, corresponding with her conversation in another chat box with that dia friend, Li Yan could imagine her laughing at controlling everything now.
After so thought, he picked up Yurong’s phone, not only capturing Lin Fenni’s computer screen. Then he edited a short ssage, sending it to these senior executives, excluding Lin Fenni. He didn’t know how Yurong discussed strategies with everyone during the evening eting, but believed Lin Fenni was certainly leading the crisis managent now. Since she was also a traitor, even if there were strategies, they might not be strictly implented.
Since her action would certainly delay and err, it was better to change the strategy, catching her off guard!
So his short ssage asked all senior leaders to follow the decisions made at the previous eting and each prepare their respective parts, saying not to worry about the press conference, that there were other arrangents and everything would go smoothly!
Then in the group, he left a brief ssage in Yurong’s tone: "Disperse!" Without waiting for anyone to react, he disbanded the group.
"Her" reaction was seen by the other senior executives who received the mobile text, naturally each to their tasks, without deliberating on the computer and wasting ti. So the others closed QQ, then shut down the computer, contacted by phone, or slept waiting to work the next day. Lin Fenni was obviously a bit dumbfounded, not knowing what Zhang Yurong ant. She still reported the situation to her "dia friend", then added that Zhang Yurong’s aning was to have everyone act according to the previous eting’s decisions, and she would ’cooperate’ well.
Li Yan continued to use Yurong’s phone to capture this too, then lost interest in watching her performance. He shut down his computer, closed Yurong’s computer too, took her phone, quietly went downstairs, drove out, heading for Century Seascape Hotel.
Initially, Li Yan intended to have Zheng Yixuan help Paradise Group, as this was conspicuous, and with Paradise Group’s status, inviting Lawyer Zheng would not raise suspicion and would benefit the future. But it backfired; although he made Yurong believe Zheng Yixuan was a friend, she didn’t believe he was a good friend.
Now ti was tight, no ti to think of more ways, Li Yan decided to personally deal with Zhou Shiru for Yurong!
...
Century Seascape Hotel is not on the Eastern Coast; driving from Li Yan’s house, takes at most half an hour. Now, with the roads clear and driving fast, he reached in less than twenty minutes.
The hotel entrance was quite lively; when Li Yan arrived, he saw journalists carrying caras, photographers coming one after another. This saved him the trouble of inquiring, he went up with them.
Arriving at the press conference venue, entering, soone was checking and asking journalists for ID at the door. Li Yan neither had interview partners nor a cara, didn’t look like a journalist, and was imdiately stopped.
"May I ask which dia friend you are?"
For the suspicion, Li Yan took out Yurong’s phone. He had two phones, the one specially made by Guan Ziyi was quite old-fashioned, and the commonly used one, once fell into a swimming pool thrown by Li Jie at Yu Xiaodi’s house, got water damaged, Yu Xiaodi got him a replacent, it was quite a good phone. But it couldn’t compare with Yurong’s, who didn’t need as many functions as Li Yan, was the most high-end business phone, also the most expensive brand.
Li Yan certainly wasn’t showing off phones, "Are you doubting my professionalism? We are new dia online; do you think we run around with long guns and cannons? Recording, video, photography, everything done with the phone, and can instantly upload online. What’s efficiency? Get it?"
The organized staffer was bluffed by Li Yan. Judging by his look, he seed quite professional. Moreover, now phones do have extensive functions, shooting stills with enough pixels, online video reports don’t pursue high definition, emphasizing speed. By the ti traditional caras are done shooting, returned to the TV station for post-production, their videos would have been quickly uploaded online with the phone.
"Dare not, sir looks like a professional, a light-footed expert. I am just routinely asking for registration, later we have so ’token fee’." The staffer quietly reminded.
Token fees were initially for hiring people to write letters, couplets, now practically non-existent, but now there are companies hiring dia journalists to write soft articles, soft advertisents, giving red envelopes, sotis called travel fees, transportation fees, euphemistically called ’token fees’.
This is widely used in movie promotions. Before blockbusters officially screen, they hold dia screenings, inviting journalists. But no matter how good, not everyone’s tastes are t, so often reimburse travel, als, give a fee at least not less than the manuscript fee to ensure positive reviews before release.
To avoid arousing suspicion, Li Yan lowered his voice, "I’m an external journalist for XX website, got here first. Our report won’t have many words, will be the fastest using pictures, videos for reporting. How does that count?"
The staffer was reassured by his words, gave a knowing look, and whispered they’d all get the sa treatnt, invited him in to get a good spot.
After going through the formalities, Li Yan entered the press conference. Though it wasn’t even eleven thirty, indeed many financial journalists had arrived. Although securing a good spot was relative, central front spots were allocated to the most influential dia. He could only jostle for a spot with tabloids, online dia.
No matter the position, it was inconsequential to Li Yan, he preferred not being in the spotlight, not attracting attention in crowded places.
Ti ticked by, there was still so ti until midnight, the venue remained noisy, with many adjusting lenses, preparing questions, vying for spots, calling. Li Yan casually observed and confird everyone got the ssage it was a midnight event.
He glanced at the wall clock, nearing eleven thirty. The show was set for an early start!
Sure enough, before everyone grew anxious, soone took the stage, announcing Mr. Zhou Shiru noticed most dia friends had arrived, didn’t want them waiting late, decided to start the conference half an hour early!
