399 Clarification, Everyone Will Have Their Retribution
Luo Feng savored the tea in his cup. Yes, it tasted the same as the tea in his own house.
He had not been idle ever since he hooked up with the television station. He had sent all kinds of gifts non-stop. Luo Feng reserved a tea mountain and hired someone to pick the top tea tips on the tea mountain after knowing that the Director liked tea. They could not be bought on the market even if they wanted to.
Everyone in the farmyard had it too because he had produced too much.
The Director couldnât even cover up for Zachary even if he wanted to after Luo Feng spent so much effort. Moreover, Director Zuo had personally decided on the program âIdol Cultivationâ.
Upon learning that Zachary had almost screwed up the project, the Director was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Luo Feng ignored Zachary, who was squatting down, and only focused on sipping his tea.
The Directorâs attitude was clear, and Zachary became incomparably humble. One had to know that even if he was caught red-handed by Luo Feng, Zacharyâs arrogant head wouldnât be lowered so low.
âBoss Luo, letâs talk things out.â Zachary smiled obsequiously. âIf you have any requests, feel free to ask. Iâll definitely do my best to satisfy them!â
Luo Feng put down his teacup and snorted. âNow, the entire Internet is chasing after me and scolding me. The program has been negatively affected, and even the sponsors have been implicated. What else can I say?!â
Zachary knew what to do even without Luo Fengâs detailed request.
He was a little hesitant. It had been less than 20 minutes since the announcement was released after all. If he released another clarification announcement in a short period of time, he would definitely be scolded to death by the netizens.
Then the reputation that he had built up over the years would be ruined, and his career would be ruined!
Luo Feng sneered and said, âDirector Zachary, with the evidence in my hands and your announcement, I can sue you for defamation. You donât want to lose money and go to jail, right?â
âThisâŠâ Zachary was so frightened that his face turned pale. He glared at Luo Feng in panic.
âLook at that.â Luo Feng pointed at Zhu Bai in the corner. âThatâs a spy arranged by Kou Zhiyuan. What she did wasnât as impactful as what you did.â
However, he still did not let her leave.
Luo Feng might have a good temper but he was not a saint who could forgive all malice.
Zachary was the one who wanted to walk into a dead end. Luo Feng had given him a chance, but he didnât cherish it. Hence, Zachary had to bear the consequences himself.
Zachary was conflicted for a while. During this period, he kept turning back to look at the director, hoping that the director would speak up for him on account of their past relationship.
But Zuo Director was like a statue, completely ignoring them.
âAlright, Iâll listen to your arrangements.â Zachary gave up resisting. It was better to have his career destroyed than to go to jail.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Director seemed to have suddenly recovered his hearing. He waved his hand and said, âAlright, you young people can settle your own matters. Iâm going to a meeting.â
Luo Feng stood up and said, âSorry to trouble you, Zuo Director. Weâll settle it as soon as possible.â
âAlright.â Zuo Director nodded. Seeing that Luo Feng was about to leave, he added, âThat tea leaf is not bad, right?â
Luo Feng smiled.
Of course, it was not bad. After all, he had carefully selected it. âI happen to have more. Iâll get someone to send some to you tomorrow.â
âOkay, good luck with the show.â Zuo Director was satisfied and invited a few people away.
Zachary was dumbfounded. It had to be known that Zuo Director didnât easily accept gifts from others. He would not even take a second look at gold bar. Even though everyone on the stage knew that Zuo Director liked tea leaves, very few could make him accept them.
This Luo Feng had clearly sent a gift to the Zuo Directorâs heart. Otherwise, the Zuo Director would not have been unable to forget him.
It was too terrifying!
Only then did Zachary clearly realize that he had provoked someone he shouldnât have.
âYouâre a director. You must be good at writing.â
When they were about to reach the first floor, Luo Feng suddenly asked.
Zachary followed in small steps and nodded humbly. âIt should be alright. I can explain things clearly.â
Smack!
Luo Feng snapped his fingers and pointed at the group of reporters at the entrance. âCoincidentally, there are ready-made conditions. Go and explain things to them immediately.â
âNow?â Zachary was sweating profusely. In the warm room, he kept wiping his sweat with his expensive t-shirt. âWhat⊠what do I want to say?â
Luo Feng looked at him pitifully and patted his shoulder. âOf course itâs to clarify the rumors you created. Donât implicate me and the television station. You can do whatever you want.â
âBut⊠butâŠâ Zachary didnât say anything for a long time.
Luo Feng continued, âThis is the fastest way. Itâs even faster than you posting your second essay online. Or do you want to cover the companyâs losses? You can pay the compensation for the breach of contract. I have no objections.â
More than 10 advertising companies and three online platforms, not to mention Shanghai TV Station. All of these added up to hundreds of millions of yuan!
Zachary had no choice but to do as Luo Feng asked.
Luo Feng smiled and said, âBy the way, only Microcosm has the right to broadcast. Iâve already contacted the reporters to wait at the door. The one in slippers. Remember to emphasize it to him.â
The reporter was also an acquaintance of Luo Feng. When he heard that there was something important, he jumped out of bed without even changing his shoes.
âGo ahead, Director Zachary.â Luo Feng made a âpleaseâ gesture.
Zachary walked towards the entrance with one hand on the other. The reporters instantly became chaotic, and the sound of the shutters grew louder. Luo Feng knew that Zachary was already in position.
âUm⊠Boss LuoâŠâ Zhu Bai called out to Luo Feng softly, âWh-What should I do now? You brought me everywhere, IâŠâ
After witnessing Luo Fengâs methods and Zacharyâs fate, Zhu Bai should be worried about him.
âGo back and deliver a message to Kou Zhiyuan,â Luo Feng said. âI want him to resign from his position as Morris supervisor within two days and make a public apology to me. As for the compensation amount, my lawyer will inform him.â
âWhat about me?â Zhu Bai only asked her to deliver a message and did not mention about her at all. Could it be that Luo Feng was merciful and wanted to let her off?
Luo Feng glanced at her and smiled. âGo back and wait for the lawyer to inform you.â
Zhu Bai had done so many bad things. If Luo Feng let her off easily, it would be irresponsible to the other contestants. However, Luo Feng did not want to handle it personally, so he handed everything to the law.
âYou should give up on your dream of becoming a celebrity and find a 9-to-5 job.â
These were Luo Fengâs last words to Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai followed behind Luo Feng with a dazed expression while going to the Morris office building. Luo Feng drove her to the building and left.
As Zhu Bai walked into the building in a daze, the Innovative Artist PR team began to operate.
They first made an announcement to explain the situation, then released a list of complaints. It was filled with netizens who had spread rumors online. They also directly shouted at the media who had originally posted the article, indicating that if they did not delete the article, the evidence would start to be released in ten minutes.
Their unyielding attitude and swift counterattack made the netizens doubt everything they had seen before.
