Chapter 133 Old Cai, You’re Too Cruel
Not long after, he saw Lao Cai rushing into the dressing room. He sneered and pointed in the direction of the dressing room, “Lao Cai is leaving.”
When Wang Ren saw this, his brows tightened and he was about to stand up, “No, I’d better talk to him.”
Gao Leng pulled him back and said, “No need, it’s all like this. There’s no need. He’ll be here soon. I’ll tell him.”
After a while, Lao Cai came out of the dressing room and paused. After hesitating for a moment, he walked over to Gaoleng and said with a smile, “Aiya, I’m really sorry. Something happened to my magazine. I can’t accompany you anymore. I have to leave now.” As he spoke, he extended his hand and shook hands with Wang Ren, then shook hands with Gaoleng.
However, his gaze did not look at Gaoleng. He was a little guilty. Even though he was old, Wang Ren’s expression was on the side.
Lao Cai knew that Wang Ren had gone out to answer the phone. Looking at his expression again, he understood a bit.
The shopping mall was originally for profit, but didn’t he, Gaoleng, also end up doing well? Punishment or whatever. Later on, if Gaoleng said that I had something to order to keep me from stepping down, then I wouldn’t care about that much. He said that there was a great leader pressing down on me, and that the people of the government were pressing down on me. What could I do? Even if Wang Ren was the guarantor, it was hard to say anything. Besides, Wang Ren definitely knew that this was what Old Cai meant. Gaoleng didn’t know who Old Cai was. Was Wang Ren still unclear? Lao Cai thought to himself, feeling a bit ruthless in his heart.
Old Cai shook his hand, stood up and wanted to leave, but Gaoleng’s words surprised him.
“Brother Wang, I know what you said. Don’t take it to heart. I’ve earned so much attention on Weibo, and I know you as a friend. It’s worth it.” Gaoleng shook his hand tightly, his eyes filled with sincerity.
Insincerity, what can we do? Now that things had come to this point, this was the smartest choice. It’s better to have more friends than more enemies.
Moreover, this person might be of great use in the future, Gaoleng thought with a smile.
Wang Ren was slightly stunned. An expression of disbelief flashed across his face. Although he was a little embarrassed, his cold words gave him enough face and stairs, and he did not openly reveal it.
This high-coldness, broad-minded, rather sensible, he thought.
After Old Treasure left, Wang Ren looked at Gaoleng and asked, “What are you going to do next? I think you will have a hard time in Xingsheng. Why don’t you come and work with me?”
Gaoleng smiled gratefully at Wang Ren and said, “It’s not like you’re a media man. It’s better for me to do what I’m good at. It’s normal for people to wear shoes at work.”
“That’s right, it’s normal for people to wear small shoes at work, but the person who will wear small shoes for you in the future is President Lin and the general manager of Xingsheng. This is different.”
Indeed, President Lin was the one who wore his shoes.
Old Cai actually withdrew all the advertisements. President Lin’s performance was considered to be gone, and then he announced that he would overturn the punishment for Gaoleng. This was self-humiliating and disgraceful.
It would be strange if the cold days were easy in the future.
“Alright, let’s see. If you can’t, then resign and go to another house.” Gao Leng said indifferently, “I’m afraid that this isn’t something I can decide. President Lin probably won’t let me go. I have some heavy materials in my hands.”
Gaoleng’s judgment was correct.
Indeed, how could President Lin let him go? If he let him go and gave the materials to other magazines, then Old Cai would definitely reveal the matter of his private transaction with Wen Kai. Old Cai’s method was not as simple as opening a recording pen while talking about business.
This was a big shot who had worked in the underworld for nearly 40 years since he was a teenager. There were seven or eight of his subordinates who were famous, and more than 50 of them were in the third or fourth line. This was definitely a big deal in the brokerage company.
“Old Cai just called me. He’s a bit dark. Did you know that Huai’an reporter secretly visited Hong Kong Star to buy/sell porn in the mainland?” Wang Ren asked slowly, a trace of fear flashing across his brows.
Naturally, he knew about this news.
It was ten years ago, A fledgling journalist secretly visited a dinner party, News of some Hong Kong celebrities forming groups to come to the mainland to earn money with their bodies came out. At that time, there weren’t many sneak shots, and he wasn’t that careful at the dinner table. He disguised himself as a waiter, and practically made the entire transaction clear, from the actress being placed on the table, to the dirty price being charged while eating, and then to the scene of hugging and entering the hotel.
It was a sensation that everyone knew.
It should be known that the Internet was not so popular at that time, and celebrities were still unreachable in the eyes of the common people. This kind of news suddenly broke out, and the streets and alleys enjoyed talking about it.
The entire Hong Kong entertainment industry, which was originally at the altar, was humiliated.
This kind of scandal caused Hong Kong Star to plunge into a downturn. After all, the mainland was Hong Kong Star’s most profitable market.
For a time, this reporter became famous and became famous. He then filmed several more cases and was named the best reporter candidate for that year.
“That reporter’s name is Xiao Bai, right?” Gaoleng frowned slightly and thought for a long time. The original owner was very impressed by the news, but he did not remember the reporter very well. “He should have been famous at that time, but he was powerless. Was he forced to change his profession?”
Gaoleng’s judgment was correct. Indeed, he was forced to change his profession because there was no one on top of him who could protect him from such big news. However, it was far more than that.
“His ten fingers have been cut off. He can no longer hold the camera. His face is splashed with sulfuric acid. Now, he is nowhere to be found.” Wang Ren sighed regretfully, “What a good young man. He has a strong sense of justice and journalism. At that time, I had a good relationship with him. At that time, I wasn’t rich yet. He was in the limelight and helped me pull the line for the secretary to negotiate a government cooperation. I didn’t expect that when his storm passed, he would be hacked.”
Wang Ren glanced at Gaoleng and approached him, “It was Old Cai Hei. Old Cai personally moved his hand and pointed a gun at his child’s head. He told him to chop off his fingers in front of his child. He even recorded a video and made an example of him.”
Gaoleng’s heart trembled.
He hadn’t expected it to be so brutal.
“Old Cai wasn’t a manager before. He just settled things like this. You can tell by looking at the artists he signed. One by one, he didn’t look at virtue. He only looked at money. Wen Kai was a typical example.” Wang Ren’s voice was heavy.
“I see. Thank you.” Gao Leng nodded.
“I introduced you to Feng Xing magazine’s Old Treasure. It was also because Old Treasure had some connections with him. It’s not like before. There’s a lot of laws in place. Old Cai doesn’t dare to do anything brazenly. I didn’t expect that Old Cai would actually kill President Lin to do this. Heh, let alone that Old Cai has grown, brains, and tricks. You have to be careful.”
“I know. Although it’s the rule of law now, I can’t withstand the shadows behind people’s backs.” The group of thugs who were shouting in Japanese appeared in front of Gaoleng. They had always suspected that Wen Kai would be able to summon such a thug. After all, although Wen Kai was arrogant, he had nothing to do with the underworld. It seemed that it was Old Cai’s connections.
“Mr. Gao, call.” The waiter handed over the phone. It was an unfamiliar number.
“Hello.”
“Hello, you have a courier. Are you at home?” As he spoke, a knock came from the phone.
Squeak …
The door opened.
For some reason, an ominous feeling suddenly appeared in Gaoleng’s heart. The little witch was at home, but her body was very weak.
Express delivery? Gaoleng has never bought anything online.
