Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

afternoon.

At about two o'clock, Lin Baicheng came to Xinhua News Agency.

Due to media criticism, Lin Baicheng can be said to have attracted the attention of all walks of life in Hong Kong. At least many reporters have been following him and watching him walk into Xinhua News Agency.

Under the current circumstances, Lin Baicheng came to Xinhua News Agency immediately after returning to Xiangjiang. People couldn't help but speculate about Lin Baicheng's position, knowing that the ban by the Bay Island News Bureau did not have a good result.

As for Lin Baicheng coming here to do cutting with the mainland, this possibility is certainly possible, but it is very small. After all, Lin Baicheng has just returned to Xiangjiang. There is no need to make such a decision immediately, and even if he wants to cut, there is no need to come here in person.

"Mr. Lin!"

"President Wang! President Li!"

The two presidents, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan, came out to pick up Lin Baicheng.

The two parties shook hands, walked inside, and disappeared from the sight of reporters. The reporters wanted to follow in, but they were stopped by Xinhua News Agency staff. The guards nearby were watching eagerly, and the reporters simply couldn't think of forcing their way in.

"President Wang, I heard from my secretary that you want to contact me if you have anything?"

After some polite remarks, Lin Baicheng asked. Although he had guessed why Wang Yiping contacted him, he still had to ask.

"Yes."

Wang Yiping nodded and said sincerely: "The main thing is to say sorry to you, Mr. Lin. It's because we didn't consider that there would be such a violent reaction from the Bay Island News Bureau and even made the decision to block the works of Asia Star Media Group. This kind of thing has never happened to Bao Sheng, Hu Sheng and others, so we did not consider it in advance and it would bring trouble to you, Mr. Lin."

The impact of this incident is not small, and Xinhua News Agency must actively respond to it, because this incident affects not only Lin Baicheng.

Lin Baicheng is now the richest man in Hong Kong. He is the idol of many young people in Hong Kong. He is also one of the representatives of the business community in Hong Kong and a weathervane.

Once Lin Baicheng chooses to back down, draw a line with the mainland or change his position under the ban of the Wandao News Bureau, the mainland will lose not only the support of Lin Baicheng, the richest man, but the mainland officials are also worried that other businessmen will have concerns as a result, or Wandao The authorities felt that this was useful and therefore stepped up the crackdown, causing some people who originally chose to support the mainland or were undecided to change their minds, thus causing more people to change their stance.

Although the official attitude of the mainland to take back Xiangjiang will not change, the official attitude must be gentle to take back Xiangjiang, and more people from all walks of life in Hong Kong should stand with the mainland. Forcibly taking back Xiangjiang is not advisable, and the international pressure is too great, so many people are needed support.

If Lin Baicheng's position changes due to the ban on Bay Island, losing Lin Baicheng as a supporter is a big loss in itself, not to mention that more people may be affected, so Xinhua News Agency must handle this emergency and let Lin Baicheng's position will not change.

After all, Lin Baicheng is young and grew up in Hong Kong. Although everyone has always been a little confused about why Lin Baicheng's position is leaning towards the mainland, and he is relatively firmly supportive, instead of being ambiguous and wavering like many Chinese businessmen. But because of his youth, no one can guarantee that he will not be able to withstand the pressure and change his mind during the Bay Island ban.

Therefore, Wang Yiping specifically contacted Lin Baicheng, apologized to Lin Baicheng, and tested Lin Baicheng's attitude.

"President Wang, there is no need to say sorry, this has nothing to do with you."

Lin Baicheng waved his hand immediately after hearing this and said: "Although the sudden blocking of the Bay Island News Bureau is a bit unexpected, I have always been mentally prepared for it. After all, the Bay Island people don't want to see Hong Kong taken back by the motherland, but this is the general trend. It will be easily changed. Since I choose to side with the mainland, I am naturally prepared to be suppressed by the Taiwan authorities and even the Hong Kong government’s Downing Street.”

"It can be said that it was only blocked by the Information Bureau of the Bay Island, rather than completely blocked by the Bay Island authorities. Neither the Hong Kong government nor Downing Street suffered any consequences. This is already relatively minor in my opinion."

"I won't brag with you two, nor will I just pick nice things to say. Faced with the ban by the Bay Island News Bureau, Asia Star Media Group has indeed suffered a lot of losses. I will let people communicate with the Bay Island News Bureau and take a look. Can we lift the ban and try to minimize the losses?"

"However, even if the Bay Island News Bureau does not lift the ban, I will not compromise and change my position. As long as you do not change my trip to the mainland on the 21st, my trip here will not change and the itinerary will remain unchanged."

Lin Baicheng did not play charades and directly stated his position. However, he also pointed out his own losses. There was no need to hide this kind of thing. He himself did suffer losses. He wanted Xinhua News Agency and the mainland executives to see his sincerity. , he did not change his position even though he was suppressed and suffered losses. This is his sincerity and firm attitude.

If the suppression by the Bay Island authorities does not expand further, Lin Baicheng's view of the ban on the Bay Island Information Bureau is not entirely a bad thing. At least he has let the mainland's top management see his firm attitude, and he can make some people take note of it. With his favor, he can make the mainland regard him as a true member of their own family.

Lin Baicheng knows very well that he grew up in Xiangjiang and has not been in contact with the mainland for a long time. Although he has made some contributions to the mainland in terms of publicity, his age is a flaw. I am afraid that many people in the mainland have not considered it. He regards him as one of his own, but there is a need to use him now. It's hard to say how much 'return' he will get in the future.

Now that something like this has happened, if Lin Baicheng can stand in line and firmly state his position despite being suppressed, many people will definitely see it and truly regard him as one of their own.

Lin Baicheng's direct and clear stance made Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan feel relieved. At least the worst case did not happen. Although it was not yet certain whether Lin Baicheng's words were sincere, at least Lin Baicheng did not have an ambiguous attitude and was careless. As for others.

Besides, there are only about ten days left before the scheduled trip to the mainland. Counting the time to prepare for departure in advance, it will be less than ten days. By then, it will be unclear whether Lin Baicheng is telling the truth. It's clear at a glance.

Of course, as the presidents of Xinhua News Agency, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan must ensure that Lin Baicheng's position has not changed before his trip to the mainland. If Lin Baicheng suddenly regrets his departure at the end, the impact will be considerable. Work gone wrong.

"Mr. Lin, thank you for your trust and support for the country!"

Wang Yiping said solemnly that although he was not sure whether what Lin Baicheng said was true, he would take it as what Lin Baicheng said.

Li Fuquan also said: "There will absolutely be no change in the invitation from Mr. Lin and others. As long as Mr. Lin and others' ideas remain unchanged, there will be no change in the itinerary. Also, Mr. Lin suffered losses because of his support for us. We will definitely remember this sentiment."

"Since the schedule remains unchanged, I can assure you that I will definitely go to the mainland again."

Lin Baicheng solemnly made a promise. He was very happy to hear Li Fuquan's words. This was exactly what he wanted.

Naturally, another polite conversation followed.

After chatting for a while, Li Fuquan asked: "Mr. Lin, regarding your communication with Wandao, if you need our help, please don't be polite. We will try our best."

"I will try my best to communicate with the Bay Island side. I won't be polite if necessary."

Lin Baicheng smiled and nodded, but in his heart he only thought that the other party was talking politely, because the reason why Wan Dao blocked his Lin Baicheng's property was because Lin Baicheng sided with the Mainland. If he asked the Mainland for help when communicating with Wan Dao, he would be doing a disservice. More likely.

Wang Yiping asked: "Mr. Lin, do you want to go to Bay Island in person to communicate with the authorities?"

"I won't go there myself. My secretariat director and the president of Asia Star Media Group will go there."

Lin Baicheng shook his head. To be honest, he was still a little scared. He was afraid that he would be detained or shot when he went to the Wandao side in person. After all, the impact of him, the richest man in Hong Kong, on siding with the mainland would be huge. Who knows where the Wandao authorities would be? What is your attitude towards him? Do you worry about your reputation and don't dare to mess around?

This is an uncertain event, and Lin Baicheng cannot risk his own life or freedom on the attitude of the Bay Island authorities. If he loses the bet, he will either lose his freedom or die; if he wins the bet, it is nothing more than the ban on Bay Island being lifted.

Compared with freedom and life, let alone Asia Star Media Group being blocked, even if all industries were blocked and restricted entry, Lin Baicheng would not be able to put himself in danger for the sake of business.

God favors Lin Baicheng, who has a chance to be reborn. From his rebirth decades later to now, when he became a millionaire, he has not enjoyed much yet. He cherishes life very much and will never gamble with his life because of wealth.

Not to mention that he is not sure about the attitude of the Bay Island authorities. Even if the possibility of action on the Bay Island is very small, Lin Baicheng will not take the gamble. No matter how small the possibility is, it is not as important as life safety.

"This lineup is enough."

Regarding Lin Baicheng's decision, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan were secretly relieved. They were not sure whether something would happen if Lin Baicheng went to the Bay Island at this time. They were beyond their reach on the Bay Island. If they wanted to protect Lin Baicheng, they would be able to protect him. It's not easy.

Unlike Xiangjiang, even though it is ruled by the British, the mainland has some hidden forces here. Although these hidden forces cannot do big things, they can still protect some people.

After chatting with the two presidents of Xinhua News Agency for a while, Lin Baicheng said he had something to deal with and left. The two presidents did not hold back too much. They knew that Lin Baicheng, who had just returned to Xiangjiang from the United States, did have a lot to do. to be processed.

After sending Lin Baicheng away, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan returned to the office.

Li Fuquan said: "Comrade Wang, what do you think of Mr. Lin Baicheng's attitude?"

Wang Yiping said: "Since he has made his position clear and his trip to the mainland will not change, I think he will not deceive us on this matter."

"I agree with this."

Li Fuquan nodded slightly, and then said: "However, his attitude now does not mean that it will be the same in the future. If the Bay Island side intensifies the pressure, and even the Hong Kong government and the British side join in, I am worried that he will bear the burden. Can’t stand the pressure.”

"If it really comes to this level, not many people can handle the pressure."

Wang Yiping knew very well that it was very difficult for Chinese businessmen to give up their wealth and side with the Mainland. Before there was no threat to the family business, they would lean towards the Mainland. But if their own wealth was threatened by life and death, how many people would be able to side with the Mainland? Just say hello.

"We must ensure that Mr. Lin's attitude remains unchanged, otherwise the negative impact will be too great." Li Fuquan said.

"Um!"

Wang Yiping nodded: "But there is a limit to what we can do, that is, ask Comrade Huo and others to help us talk about it, and at the same time inquire about it."

“It’s better to do something than to do nothing.”

Li Fuquan continued: "Of course, it would be best if Mr. Lin is just like what he said. For such a person who is willing to sacrifice himself to stand firm, we must hold on tightly and protect him, and never let anything happen to him. .”

Wang Yiping agreed very much with this. He said: "Mr. Lin has his own bodyguard, and he is always with him. We don't need to send people to protect him, but we can provide support in terms of intelligence. If any information is found that is not beneficial to Mr. Lin, , will be notified as soon as possible.”

"That's enough."

Li Fuquan had no objection.

…

After Lin Baicheng left Xinhua News Agency, he said he was going to Asia Star Media Group, but in fact he was going to Asia Television.

After the establishment of Asia Star Media Group, Asia Television temporarily became the temporary headquarters of the group. Huang Xizhao and other senior executives of the group all work here at Asia Television. However, the group's headquarters has been under construction since last year. After the headquarters is completed, the group's branches will They will all move in and work together.

When Lin Baicheng came to ATV, Huang Xizhao was still at the TV station, and he had not yet gone to Wandao.

Lin Baicheng held an impromptu meeting for senior executives to reassure them and told them that the ban on Bay Island would not affect the development of the group. The group could expand to the Southeast Asian market and also have business dealings with the United States. The ban on Bay Island caused shocks in the group.

The Bay Island News Bureau's ban on Asia Star Media Group will definitely have an impact on the group. Lin Baicheng must appease the senior executives, and then the senior executives will appease the middle management, and then the middle management will appease the lower-level employees.

As long as there is no turmoil within the group, even if the group's revenue and profits are affected by the ban on Wandao, Lin Baicheng can bear some losses, but if a large number of employees leave, the losses will be too great.

It was almost four o'clock when Lin Baicheng came to ATV, and it was almost five o'clock after the meeting. It was not long before he got off work, so he did not go to various departments to visit, but asked Chen Huixiang to go to Zhong Chuhong. Called to his office.

As for official matters, they will be handled tomorrow. Anyway, official matters cannot be finished.
