HuaYu: The most muscular director in history!

Chapter 144 Xiang Nan returns to China, Yifei’s instructions

June 5th, 8:00 AM.

Early in the morning, Shunyi International Airport was already packed with people.

Passing guests looked on in surprise at the honeycomb-like crowd of reporters.

"Who are these people? Why are there so many reporters?"

Soon, the cheers and shouts from the reporters gave him the answer.

"Xiang Nan!"

"Southern King! Would you please grant me an interview?"

"Xiang Nan, are you really a Cao Cao fan?"

"Did the cops catch you doing drugs?"

Oh, it's Xiang Nan! No wonder!

In the center of the crowd, Xiang Nan, wearing sunglasses and a black short-sleeved shirt, walked away with his head down.

He ignored the shouts from both sides, and the reporters in front of him couldn't stop him no matter what.

"Everyone!" Chen Yaochuan clapped his hands from behind the crowd, drawing everyone's attention.

"Xiang Nan will be holding a press conference at Xing Nanfei at 3 PM this afternoon. Please come then."

After saying this, Chen Yaochuan, under the cover of his team, chased after Xiang Nan.

Nine o'clock in the morning, in the top-floor conference room of Xingnanfei headquarters.

The heavy solid wood door closed, and Xiang Nan sat in the main seat, with a newly printed public opinion report in front of him.

Chen Yaochuan and Han Jianu sat on either side, while An Yugang from the publicity company sat opposite them, clutching crumpled documents in his hands.

"Yu Gang, tell me, what exactly has been going on these past two days? Get to the point." Xiang Nan tapped the table with his hand, his gaze sweeping over the person opposite him.

An Yugang immediately stood up, opened the documents, and spoke rapidly: "President Xiang, since the smear campaign started to spread on the evening of July 1st, Huayi, Tangren, and Wanwan have hired no less than twenty marketing companies to spread smears across all channels. The rumors range from dereliction of duty at the concert to drug use, Cao fans, and even a forged police arrest warrant."

"As soon as the fabricated press release was published, your millions of fans spontaneously organized to fight back, controlling comments, compiling evidence chains, and reporting the accounts spreading the rumors. They have been fighting against the online trolls for the past few days. Now the forums and online communities are full of posts from both sides, and it just won't stop."

"Furthermore, Ms. Liu Yifei posted on the forum twice on July 2nd and 3rd to support you, repeatedly expressing her belief in him." This topic has now reached the top of the trending search list, and she herself has been attacked by online trolls, but she has not deleted the posts.

Han Jianu took over the conversation and pushed a stack of documents in front of Xiang Nan.

"Brother Nan, this is a list of the first accounts and newspapers that spread rumors, as well as the marketing companies associated with them. Although it cannot be used as direct evidence, we have found them all. Huayi and Tangren are the main forces, while the Taiwanese side is just following the trend and trying to gain popularity."

Chen Yaochuan nodded and added a sentence.

"There are no problems with the music department. The New York Police Department has issued a statement indicating its willingness to cooperate, and there are no issues with the concerts in China either."

Xiang Nan flipped through the documents in front of him, pondered for a moment, and then looked up at the group: "First, Yu Gang, you need to arrange for someone to compile all of the official statement from New York Police Department Chief Emma, ​​the security configuration files for the concert, and all the evidence for post-concert compensation, and release them on all platforms along with the company's official clarification statement. We can't miss a single channel."

"Secondly, Jia Nu, please contact Professor Luo Xiang, Xing Nanfei's honorary legal advisor, and ask him to come to the press conference at 3 PM this afternoon. I need his help."

"Third, externally, issue a statement in the name of the company to thank all the fans for their support and to thank Ms. Liu Yifei for her support; internally, the human resources department should keep a close eye on the movements of employees in all departments, maintain a stable atmosphere in the group, and not allow anyone to speak recklessly or spread rumors."

The group quickly responded, picked up their notebooks and took notes, not daring to delay for even a moment.

"Any other questions?" Xiang Nan looked up and glanced around.

"Without Brother Nan, let's get on with it now." Han Jianu was the first to stand up, grabbing the documents and quickly walking out of the conference room.

Chen Yaocuan and An Yugang followed closely behind, each going to make arrangements for the afternoon press conference.

At 3 p.m., the press conference hall on the first floor of Xingnanfei's headquarters was packed with reporters, their cameras and microphones crammed full, and even the aisles were filled with people.

Xiang Nan, dressed in a black suit, walked into the venue, followed by Luo Xiang, Chen Yaochuan, and Han Jianu.

The entire room fell silent instantly, and the sound of camera shutters filled the air.

Xiang Nan sat down in the main seat, raised his hand to press down, and the sound of camera shutters gradually stopped.

"I'm holding this press conference today to say only three things," Xiang Nan's voice carried clearly through the microphone throughout the venue.

"First, regarding the stampede incident at the New York concert, the local police have issued an official statement. I was simply cooperating with the investigation and there was no dereliction of duty on my part. The relevant documents have been released on all platforms."

"Secondly, regarding the recent online fabrications and dissemination of false information about my drug use and being a Cao fan, etc., by newspapers and self-media accounts..."

As an individual user, my legal team has completed the evidence collection and will file lawsuits against all those spreading rumors to bring them to justice.

A commotion immediately arose in the audience. A reporter raised his hand to ask a question, but Xiang Nan raised his hand to signal him to be quiet.

"Third, I want to make it clear here that I will not accept any form of mediation or settlement in any lawsuit. No matter how much money, how long it takes, or how great the cost, I will fight to the end."

These words caused an uproar in the room, with reporters whispering among themselves and discussing the matter.

In the back row, two veteran entertainment reporters huddled together, whispering, "Damn! I've seen this before! Last time he accused the newspaper of plagiarism, he spent millions to beat them until they were spitting blood!"

"Exactly! Xiang Nan's tactics are those of a pure nouveau riche. He doesn't care about anything else; he just throws money at lawsuits. He'll drive you crazy with trouble, and drag your newspaper down with him!"

During the subsequent Q&A session, when a reporter asked about Liu Yifei's support, Xiang Nan only said, "Thank you for her trust," and did not elaborate further.

Attorney Luo Xiang then explained the legal responsibilities for spreading rumors and defamation on the spot, listing the relevant legal provisions one by one, and no one dared to cause any trouble.

The press conference ended after 5 p.m.

Xiang Nan returned to his office and dealt with a pile of documents. By the time he finished, it was already dark.

At 8 p.m., Xiang Nan sat on the sofa in his office, took out his phone, and dialed Yi Fei's international call.

The phone rang twice before being answered. A low voice came from the other end: "Big Boss? You're back in China?"

"Yeah, I just finished the press conference and went back to the office." Xiang Nan leaned back on the sofa, his tone more relaxed.

"Did the press conference go smoothly? Did those reporters give you any trouble?" Yifei's voice was anxious, and there were light footsteps in the background. She was obviously making the call from her room.

"Everything went smoothly, all arranged. Thank you, Little Pudding."

"Why are you saying thank you? We're boyfriend and girlfriend." Yifei's voice was soft, with a hint of reproach. "Isn't it only natural that I'm on your side?"

Xiang Nan leaned back on the sofa, listening to her voice on the phone, and his shoulders, which had been tense for several days, finally relaxed.

The plan to break the deadlock in public opinion has been laid out. Next, we will proceed with the prosecution step by step, expose the people behind the scenes, and prevent Little Pudding from being implicated any further.

"By the way, Big Wood." Yifei's voice suddenly became serious. The footsteps in the background faded away; she must have locked the door.

"You speak, I'm listening."

"I support you in filing a lawsuit and going through legal procedures. But don't resort to those underhanded methods to retaliate." Yifei's voice was clear and bright, coming through the receiver with exceptional clarity.

"Why?" Xiang Nan raised an eyebrow.

Does that mean others can use online trolls, but I can't?

Yu Gang is a good businessman, but he is not suited to public opinion.

Xiang Nan is thinking of finding a head of the online army!

"Because as long as you keep making the right and upright choices, people will naturally see it, and people will naturally stand up for you." Yifei's tone was unwavering. "Those crooked and evil ways will only dirty your hands."

"Oh?" Xiang Nan raised an eyebrow, quite curious. "Did your French father-in-law teach you to say that?"

"Pah, you're so frivolous," Yifei scolded, then suddenly lowered her voice, "I'm not talking anymore, my mom's coming to knock on the door. If she finds out I secretly called you in the middle of the night, she'll nag me again."

"Okay, go ahead. I'll come pick you up and take you back to China after I'm done with this."

"Goodbye, big blockhead! Muah~~~"
