After rebirth, I became a great master

Chapter 503 Ruthless Master
By the time Zhou Haoran, Zhang Yongxiang, and their group returned to China, the news had already spread throughout Huangpu Beach.

Since Wenhui Daily launched the first article, several other newspapers have joined in, publishing special reports on the topic.

Antarctic clothing wins UN Global Winter Wear Gold Award; Chinese thermal insulation technology reaches the top of the world stage.

"UN-Certified 'Chinese Warm Technology': Antarctic Gold Award May Reshape Global Winter Clothing Standards"

From National Long Johns to World Champion: The Antarctic Man Brings Back a UN Gold Medal!

From Seaport to United Nations: Antarctic People Represent Chinese Manufacturing at the Pinnacle of Global Winter Apparel

Heartwarming! Antarctic Gold Award Certificate Revealed: UN-stamped Certification of "A Warmer Thing Than a Boyfriend"

……

The first thing Zhou Haoran did after returning to China was to go to a newsstand.

Then I saw these inspiring reports.

They were all somewhat taken aback.

real or fake?

Could the Antarctic people have actually won a UN award?
Even the *Labor Daily* published an in-depth exclusive report, titled "[In-Depth] Decoding the Technology Behind the Global Winter Clothing Gold Award: How Does Antarctic's 'Thermal Matrix' Fiber Break Through the Limits of Warmth?"

Many reports include photos of certificates and trophies.

This is something that an insider couldn't provide.

"Did you do this?"

Zhou Haoran turned to look at Zhang Yongxiang.

“This…” Zhang Yongxiang thought for a while and analyzed, “It must have been done by my partner. She told me yesterday that the sudden report in Wenhui Daily disrupted our established publicity plan and that we had to bring the plan forward.”

"Quite skilled." Zhou Haoran nodded, a half-smile playing on his lips. "A woman, right?"

"what?"

Zhang Yongxiang gave an awkward smile.

“A male partner wouldn’t do it this way.”

Zhou Haoran looked like he had seen through her long ago; she must be a female business partner with a very close relationship with him, someone who was "family."

Zhang Yongxiang explained, "I'm abroad and have to take a plane, so it's inconvenient to contact me."

It's normal for a successful man to have several female confidantes, Zhou Haoran didn't find it strange, and said calmly, "The arrangements are quite good. The only hidden danger is that production capacity needs to keep up."

Zhang Yongxiang said solemnly, "Yes, I already told them yesterday not to worry about the inventory and to start working overtime to increase production immediately!"

Zhou Haoran patted him on the shoulder, "Old Zhang, you're rich now!"

"It's all thanks to Mr. Da's cultivation."

Zhang Yongxiang bowed slightly, speaking from the heart.

The group bought more than a dozen newspapers and left the newsstand.

Zhang Yongxiang proactively opened the car door for Mr. Da.

Zhou Haoran sat in the back seat and said calmly, "Old Zhang, you're going to be very busy in the coming days. You'll have to integrate the two state-owned garment factories that are on the verge of bankruptcy, deal with the surge in orders in a short period of time, and also handle media reports from all over the country."

Zhang Yongxiang exclaimed confidently, "Sir, I can do it!"

Zhou Haoran looked at him intently and said, "I have only one request: keep a low profile as much as possible."

"what?"

Zhang Yongxiang was stunned for a moment.

Zhou Haoran said, "Things will turn into their opposites when they reach their extremes. Now that Antarctic has won the gold medal awarded by the United Nations, that's enough. It's enough to become the focus of national media discussion and enough to lead the domestic garment industry. At this time, you should keep a low profile and avoid all kinds of media interviews if you can."

Zhang Yongxiang immediately understood this principle: "Yes, the higher you are praised, the higher you will fall."

Zhou Haoran nodded. "If the heat isn't enough, we can add more fuel. If the fire is already burning brightly, there's no need to add any more fuel, lest we get burned."

Zhang Yongxiang's heart skipped a beat, and he became serious. "Sir, I've got it."

"I'll arrange it later. You'll get an exclusive interview with Red Star TV and some footage of your award will be broadcast. That'll be enough. Just refuse all other TV stations. Nanji is a company based in the harbor, so we must stand on the harbor's side."

Zhou Haoran was worried that things would develop in an uncontrollable direction.

This is why he insisted on staying at Hongxingtai no matter what.

In short: controllable.

Television stations are currently the core platform for public opinion propaganda.

He now has the ability to control the content broadcast on Red Star TV to a certain extent.

This is enough to make Zhang Yongxiang's interview sufficiently authentic.

If he were to freely accept interviews from other television stations and send out the recording of his award ceremony at the United Nations... someone might discover the flaws and expose him.

Using Red Star TV as the main platform for broadcasting content is very reliable!

Little did they know, the Red Star TV station thought the same thing.

Zhou Haoran returned to his workplace, but before he could even find out the latest news about the broadcast of "Everyone's Artistic Awakening," he was summoned by Gu Hao, the executive vice president of the station.

"Haoran, you're finally back!"

Gu Hao poured him a cup of tea very attentively. Zhou Haoran smiled, "Director Gu, what is it?"

Gu Hao sat opposite him, his face serious, and said, "You have close ties with the Antarctic people, don't you?"

"Ok?"

Zhou Haoran raised his eyebrows.

Gu Hao said anxiously, "Don't play dumb with me. Yi Changping already told me. Originally, the entertainment channel contacted Nanji Ren first, wanting to invite them to sponsor the show. But you interfered and snatched Nanji Ren away, making them the main sponsor of 'Everyone's Art Up.' Yi Changping has been saying that this is against the rules."

"Isn't this the sponsor's free choice?"

Zhou Haoran asked back.

Gu Hao waved his hand. "I'm not going to pursue any violations. What I want to know now is, what's your relationship with the Antarctic people like?"

"good."

Zhou Haoran's expression was strange.

Gu Hao slapped his thigh and said happily, "I knew it! Haoran, you have to help this time, it concerns the reputation of Red Star TV!"

"what?"

Zhou Haoran was puzzled.

Gu Hao said seriously, "You've been out of the country for a while, so you might not be aware, but right now the hottest topic in the entire port is that the Antarctic Man has won a major award from the United Nations!"

"Uh……"

Zhou Haoran twitched the corners of his mouth.

Gu Hao said solemnly, "I heard that Mr. Zhang from Antarctic went to the Great Hall of the United Nations to receive an award. Many high-ranking UN leaders were there. It was a magnificent and unprecedented scene! I heard that even snipers were on standby to maintain security at the scene!"

Zhou Haoran mumbled, "Well, the United Nations."

Gu Hao said, "Many newspapers in the harbor have already started reporting on this, and some have even obtained photos from the scene. We haven't gotten anything yet, which won't do. The station director also mentioned in today's meeting that the city attaches great importance to this matter and has instructed the relevant publicity department to conduct positive reporting. This will help promote the development of the harbor's private economy and become a calling card for the harbor's economy!"

"Is there still this?"

Zhou Haoran's heart began to pound.

That's impressive.

It's received official approval!
“Right now, all the reports about this matter are from third parties.” Gu Hao’s eyes were gleaming, and he placed all his hopes on Zhou Haoran. “Haoran, you are familiar with the Antarctic people. This is a political task for our Red Star TV, and I hope to entrust it to you!”

Zhou Haoran knew perfectly well what was going on, and deliberately asked, "What kind of mission?"

Gu Hao said in a deep voice, "Nanjiren is a company in the harbor, and Hongxing TV is the harbor's television station. First-hand news about Nanjiren winning an award at the United Nations should belong to Hongxing TV!"

Zhou Haoran suddenly realized, "You want me to contact Mr. Zhang from Antarctic?"

“That’s right!” Gu Hao said with undisguised seriousness. “Haoran, this is a political mission, and you must complete it no matter what! If this interview opportunity is snatched away by Crown TV or other local TV stations, we leaders of Red Star TV will be criticized or even punished.”

"Isn't it?"

Zhou Haoran smiled.

Gu Hao sighed, "There's a reason for this!"

Zhou Haoran narrowed his eyes. "You mean the rumor about the Antarctic thermal underwear 'suffocating people' that aired on the entertainment channel's 'Consumer Frontier' a while ago?"

"you do not say!"

Gu Hao felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

Zhou Haoran's lips curled slightly, and he frowned, saying, "Boss, is that really the case? I heard from General Manager Zhang that the entertainment channel's rumors about Nanji Ren have caused incalculable losses to their company!"

Gu Hao sighed and said, "It's a good thing you're here. If you hadn't told me about it that time, and I hadn't brought it up at the station director's office meeting, criticized Yi Changping, and stopped this irresponsible reporting... if the incident had been allowed to spread, the consequences might be incalculable now."

Zhou Haoran nodded. "Yes, if we had let the entertainment channel continue spreading rumors, now that Antarctic Man has won a UN award, the entire Red Star TV station would have been implicated. You and Director Shan might both have faced disciplinary action for mismanagement."

"Thank goodness for your reminder!" Gu Hao recalled, still feeling lingering fear. "Fortunately, the station stopped the entertainment channel's actions in time."

“But the consequences have already been made.” Zhou Haoran looked troubled. “Director Gu, now Hongxing TV and Nanji Ren have become enemies. It’s a bit difficult to invite Mr. Zhang from Nanji Ren for an exclusive interview at this time!”

"Haoran, I believe you have a way!"

Gu Hao knew what this kid was capable of.

"This……"

Zhou Haoran sighed repeatedly, seemingly unwilling to take on this thankless task.

Gu Hao's eyes gleamed as he said, "Haoran, I know this task is arduous and difficult to accomplish. But I know that if others can't do it, you definitely can! If this exclusive first-hand interview is snatched away by another TV station, Red Star TV will lose face. If you succeed in this, Shan Wendong and I will both be indebted to you!"

"I see..." Zhou Haoran sighed. "Then I'll try my best. But Director Gu, the entertainment channel went too far before. I heard that someone took money from Yu Zhaolin, a competitor of Antarctic, to deliberately smear Antarctic!"

"Huh?" Gu Hao was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage. "Is that so?"

Zhou Haoran said, "I'm not too sure about that. You can check it out yourselves. I'll contact the Antarctic people, but I don't know what their demands will be."

"Feel free to make any requests!"

Gu Hao was a shrewd man and immediately guessed the kid's intentions.

Ok!

He really is a ruthless person!
