Chapter 1824 Dealing (Part 1)

"I'm just reporting according to the facts!" The deputy editor only explained one sentence, but couldn't continue under the stares of everyone.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what kind of chat room are they playing here? Not to mention the general manager and the editor-in-chief and the deputy editor-in-chief are all senior media professionals, that is, department managers and HR. They have been in the company for a long time, don't they know what this kind of news is about? What's more, don't you have any idea about whether those articles were reported according to the facts?

"I'm also doing it for the good of the company." The deputy editor-in-chief lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "It's also beneficial to the company's development to have a good relationship with the officials of the local propaganda department."

"So you can publish distorted reports regardless of the facts?" asked one of the two young women who had never met before. "Is this the principle of media reporting you have learned?"

"Part of it is also true." The deputy editor hurriedly looked up and said, "It's not entirely a distortion of the facts. Moreover, a certain degree of distorted reports can also reflect some problems."

"Distort the report?" Another young lady laughed and said, "You really know how to use words, but it's actually spreading rumors and slandering you! The principles of media people and the objectivity of the media you have learned from school, newspaper offices, and companies are all Reflected in rumors?"

"Rumors can sometimes confuse the truth." The deputy editor said eloquently: "And it can also bring a lot of discussion and PV to the company's website, which is of great benefit to the company. At worst, if we refute the rumors afterwards, it will cause a lot of trouble. A big discussion."

"So you still think about it for the company?" The young lady who just asked couldn't help but sneered: "What's the truth? The truth you knew before?"

"I hope the company will give us an explanation." The first young woman didn't bother to pay attention to the deputy editor, and turned directly to the general manager, saying coldly.

"Xiao Yao, you are also an old man in the company, explain the ins and outs clearly, write an apology statement and post it on the Internet, admit your mistakes, and you will not be held accountable for this matter." The general manager sighed and said in a deep voice : "Who asked you to post these articles?"

"Shouldn't we media people protect those who broke the news?" The deputy editor thought of the identity of the friend over there at this time, and even bit him to death: "Isn't this the morality that we media people should have?"

"The reports of media people should be objective. Where is your objectivity?" The general manager didn't expect this guy to be so stubborn, and couldn't help asking angrily.

"I've already made a mistake once, and I can't make it a second time." The deputy editor lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I accept whatever punishment the company takes."

"Punishment?" The first young lady smiled and shook her head and said, "No, the company is not qualified to punish you in the future. Mr. Yao, you have been fired. Pack up your things and go to the financial department to settle the bill! From now on, you will not be punished." Another company employee."

"Why do you fire me?" The deputy editor was shocked, the general manager sat still and said nothing, and two outsiders who had never met him actually wanted to fire him?

"No reason." The young lady smiled: "Our two bosses, who each hold 5% of the company's outstanding shares and 10% of the shareholders, should still be eligible to fire an employee. Don't worry, You can get full severance compensation, and we will follow the law."

"Mr. Yao, please sign for this lawyer's letter before you leave." Another woman took out a piece of paper from her hand and pushed it in front of the deputy editor: "On behalf of Treasure Boat Hotel, I will sue the court for defamation. Sue Mr. Yao, we have obtained evidence and notarized the data on the Internet yesterday, and everyone in your department can testify that you released the false news. You posted the article, and you, Mr. Yao, did not instruct anyone else to He will be the first person responsible, the principal offender."

"The facts are clear and the evidence is conclusive." The female lawyer smiled relaxedly: "Mr. Yao, I can tell you responsibly that the lawsuit will definitely win and there will be criminal liability. In addition, because your slander brought treasure to the Treasure Boat Hotel For the huge loss of reputation and actual income, you will bear huge civil liability compensation for this. Well, please leave, Mr. Yao, it is inconvenient for you to attend the internal meeting of our company."

"It's not me! Someone instructed me!" When he heard that he was the principal culprit and would be sued, the deputy editor-in-chief was anxious and hurriedly yelled. He had to maintain the integrity of a media person just now, but now he bowed his head in the face of the severe situation.

"I'm sorry, you can tell the judge in court!" The young female lawyer ignored the deputy editor at all, she didn't say it when she gave him a chance just now, who would listen now?

"Wait a minute!" The first young woman also took out a piece of paper and pushed it over: "I also accept this lawyer's letter. I will represent the company to sue you for the damage to the company's reputation and credibility caused by publishing false news for personal gain." Huge losses, I believe the court will accept it."

Facing the two lawyer's letters pushed in front of him, the deputy editor's face turned pale. He never imagined that things would turn out like this. Isn't it just to accept some benefits and promise a friend to post a few articles? As for it being so serious?

"If you still expect Mr. Wu to take care of you, I think you will be disappointed." The female lawyer representing the company shook her head slightly, her face full of disappointment: "Give Mr. Yao a piece of advice before you leave. If Mr. Yao still If there is an opportunity to spread rumors to force the truth, before publishing the manuscript, first check whether the person who wants to hack is your boss."

The company's security guards had already walked into the meeting room and waited. The general manager and others looked at the deputy editor with unkind expressions, their eyes full of anger. Damn, it's not good for you to blackmail anyone, even to blackmail the boss, if you don't kill him, who will you kill? Everyone was implicated, the chairman was under tremendous pressure, and he still talked about the morals of media people in front of everyone? Do you deserve it?

They already knew that it was Wu Chu who instigated it, just to give him a chance? When the deputy editor walked out of the meeting room in a daze, a hotel security guard opened the door and walked in in the reporter lounge at the entrance of the Treasure Ship Hotel, walking directly in front of a certain foreign reporter.

"Mr. Hobbs?" The security guard had already identified the target, and stepped forward directly in fluent English: "Did you accept an interview recently and express your dissatisfaction with the Treasure Ship Hotel?"

"No! No! No!" Mr. Hobbs quickly distinguished: "They just asked about my experience, and I told them that I don't have a membership, so I can't enter the Treasure Ship Hotel. That's all!"

"Maybe what you said is true." The security guard smiled: "But I'm sorry, the boss asked me to express my apologies to you. Maybe you will be accidentally injured. Good luck!"

After speaking, the security guard turned and left without a word of explanation.

What's the meaning? Mr. Hobbs was bewildered and confused. What happened? Watching the security guards walk out of the lounge, Mr. Hobbs' cell phone rang frighteningly.

"Boss!" Mr. Hobbs quickly picked up the phone number.

"Fuck! You son-of-a-bitch!" The boss's voice seemed so angry: "Hobbs, what did you bastard do in China? Get me the nearest plane and get back to America! I swear I will fire you!" Yours, Bastard!"
