Chapter 529 Dig a pit and jump by yourself

Zhao Liang obviously did not reflect. The reason why he was demoted to look at the database was because he made a false report.

What's more, it was not Li Weidong who debunked the false reports of Ghost Castle, but a reporter from Focus Talk.

In this way, even if Zhao Liang wants to blame others, he should go to Focus Talk instead of Li Weidong.

However, Zhao Liang felt that it was Li Weidong who pitted him.

When I went to interview myself, the wholesale mall was empty. When Focus Talk went, the wholesale mall was bustling. Isn't this digging a hole for myself!

Of course, another reason is that Focus Talk is a higher-level department, and Zhao Liang can't throw the blame on them, and Li Weidong is an entrepreneur, so he naturally becomes the most direct blame in Zhao Liang's heart.

It is human instinct to throw the blame, and the object of the blame is often not the person who should take the blame the most, but the person who is most likely to take the blame.

Since being punished, Zhao Liang has been thinking about revenge all the time. Now, seeing the reports of the Millions of Boys in the American media, it is a treasure.

In the late 1990s, although the country's foreign exchange reserves were much richer, foreign exchange resources were still very precious. The waste of foreign exchange resources of 10 million US dollars, or the loss, is a very serious problem.

Zhao Liang thinks that he can make a big fuss about the loss of foreign exchange. If Li Weidong really puts on a big hat that wastes tens of millions of dollars, then Li Weidong will definitely not be able to eat it.

But this time, Zhao Liang was a lot more cautious. He didn't want to repeat the same mistakes and do another ghost castle incident.

So Zhao Liang began to look through the contents of newspapers in the United States at the same time period.

Sure enough, in the sports section of many newspapers in the United States, there are reports about Millions of Boys, and all the newspapers are of the same caliber, thinking that Kobe, a high school player, is difficult to be a great player, and he is not worth tens of millions of dollars. The endorsement fee of ten million dollars is like throwing money into the water.

During that time, the American media's coverage of Kobe was not very positive. High school students were recruited for the draft, and the endorsement fee of tens of millions of dollars made the American media collectively look down on Kobe.

Seeing that the US media reports are very consistent, Zhao Liang's heart suddenly became ecstatic. So many media are talking about the same thing, it can't be fake!

Before 2000, China's attention to the NBA was not high, and CCTV at that time only broadcast the NBA All-Star Game and Finals.

Moreover, before the Internet era, Chinese fans could not obtain real-time NBA information. At that time, many fans obtained limited NBA information from professional sports magazines.

At that time, a few clear photos in the magazine, plus a text battle report, was all the fans could know, and the rest depended on the fans to make up their own minds.

Therefore, as a media person Zhao Liang, his understanding of the NBA is limited to knowing that there is a star named Jordan in the NBA.

As far as Zhao Liang is concerned, he is cautious, and he decides to investigate further.

After all, Zhao Liang graduated from a famous university. He has several senior brothers who are currently studying in the United States, so Zhao Liang decided to call and ask what happened to Kobe, the million boy.

...

a university in the United States,

Liu Jing dragged his tired body back to the dormitory. For the past few hours, he had been washing dishes in the back kitchen of a certain restaurant, and his back was sore.

Like many Chinese students, Liu Jing needs to work part-time to earn part of the living expenses, and going to the restaurant to wash dishes is probably the easiest job for Chinese students to find.

Standing in front of the dormitory door, looking at the stars in the sky, Liu Jing envied those classmates who stayed in China. I heard that a few of them got along well. The job title was assigned to the room.

In contrast, although I came to the United States, I could only work and study, study hard during the day, and go to restaurants to wash dishes at night.

Just hold on, when I graduate and get a degree, I can find a good job, and things will get better. Liu Jing sighed and walked into the dormitory.

As soon as I entered the door, the dormitory administrator stopped Liu Jing: Liu, someone called you about two hours ago. It's a Chinese. He said that he would call in two hours. It's almost time.

Liu Jing was worried that his family was looking for him, so he said, Mr. Johnson, then I'll wait here for a while!

The dormitory manager said, Liu, you should buy a mobile phone, so that it will be much easier for others to find you.

Liu Jing smiled awkwardly. For him, a mobile phone is still a luxury. Even if he can afford it, the phone bill is quite expensive. It is better to buy more delicious food if you have the money.

After waiting for five or six minutes, the phone in the dormitory administrator's room really rang. I saw him answering the phone. After asking a few questions, he handed the receiver to Liu Jing and said at the same time, I'm looking for you.

Thank you. Liu Jing immediately took the phone and said I'm Liu Jing in English. After thinking that the other party was Chinese, he repeated it in Chinese.

Master, it's me, Zhao Liang! Zhao Liang from the Chinese Department! Do you still remember me? Zhao Liang's voice came to mind on the phone.

Liu Jing pondered for a long time before he remembered who Zhao Liang was.

It turned out to be Zhao Liang! Why did you think of calling me, have you come to the United States? Liu Jing asked.

How can I be as capable as a senior? I can go to the United States for further study. I am still in China, and I am now working as a reporter in the Nanzhou Metropolis Morning Post.

Zhao Liang paused, then said, Senior brother, it should be night on your side. I'm calling you so late, so I didn't disturb your rest!

No, Americans sleep late, and they have a rich nightlife. At night, there are always parties or dances. I just finished a party! Liu Jing replied.

Domestic classmates and alumni are very envious of Liu Jing's ability to study abroad, and they all think that as long as he is in the United States. He has already realized the so-called American Dream and lived a life of a car bungalow.

For the sake of face, Liu Jing couldn't say that he had just done hundreds of dishes, and his back was sore. If you tell others that you are not as good as a dog in America, wouldn't that be a shame!

Sure enough, when Liu Jing said that he was going to the party, Zhao Liang, who was on the other side of the ocean, suddenly let out an envious sigh.

Although international long-distance calls are expensive, Zhao Liang asked after some warm-hearted questions, Senior brother, you are in the United States, you should have watched NBA games, right?

NBA? Liu Jing was stunned for a moment and wondered why Zhao Liang mentioned basketball, but he still boasted: I can't count NBA games as often, but I go to two when I have time.

That's great! Brother, I'll ask you about a player named Kobe Bryant, do you know? Zhao Liang then asked.

Kobe Bryant, let me think about it... Liu Jing deliberately pulled a long note, but secretly said in his heart, I will go to the plate when I have time. If I have the heart to pay attention to what NBA, how can I have the time to understand it? What Kobe Bryant!

But if you don't know what to do with one question, where will you put your face? As soon as I finished speaking, I went to watch two games when I had time. This cow has been blown out, how can I say I don't know!

Fortunately, there is a rescuer next to him, and that is Mr. Johnson, the dormitory administrator.

Zhao Liang, wait for me, someone is coming, I'll open the door and come back right away.

Liu Jing said, hurriedly covered the microphone with his hand, and then asked the dormitory manager next to him: Mr. Johnson, there is a player in the NBA named Kobe Bryant, do you know?

Kobe? Is that the guy from Los Angeles? His dunks are great! Johnson, the dormitory administrator, said.

Then is he good at playing? Liu Jing asked again.

Great? Can't talk about it! He is now a backup player for the Los Angeles Lakers! Johnson replied.

Substitute? If you can't even make the starting lineup, you're a rookie! Liu Jing thought to himself. He obviously had a wrong understanding of the level of NBA substitutes.

Then Liu Jing picked up the microphone and said to Zhao Liang, Hey, Zhao Liang, I'm back. Did you say Kobe Bryant just now? I know this player is from the Los Angeles Lakers!

Is he good at playing? How does he compare to Jordan? Zhao Liang asked again.

With Zhao Liang's understanding of the NBA, he also knows a Jordan.

Liu Jing replied immediately: What are you kidding? Who is Jordan? That is the best basketball player in the world. That Kobe Bryant is just a backup player. How can he compare to Jordan!

It turned out to be just a substitute! Zhao Liang asked again: Is the endorsement fee for a substitute player high?

This again asked Liu Jing's knowledge blind spot.

However, in Liu Jing's cognition, the substitute is equivalent to a rookie chicken, and a rookie chicken does not deserve an advertising endorsement.

So Liu Jing replied: It's not a star, so how can there be any advertising endorsements! You have seen those young actors who are not well-known in China, has anyone asked them to do endorsements? Endorsements must be only for big stars. !

That's it! Thank you, Senior Brother! Zhao Liang's heart was already ecstatic.

With the endorsement of Liu Jing, a non-professional, Zhao Liang has already decided that this big hat of wasting foreign exchange can be firmly buckled on Li Weidong's head.

...

Zhao Liang was fully prepared, and then found the director of the newspaper.

Director, I have found a very good topic, which is definitely worth doing an in-depth report on. Zhao Liang said earnestly.

I said Zhao Liang, didn't I send you to the reference room to reflect? This news report has nothing to do with you! The director snorted coldly.

Director, listen to me first, I found a huge fraud case involving the loss of foreign exchange of 10 million US dollars! Zhao Liang said quickly.

For people at that time, the salary was only a few hundred yuan, and 10 million US dollars was definitely a shocking figure. So when Zhao Liang mentioned the number $10 million, the director instinctively became interested.

Sit down and talk about it in detail! The director pointed to the chair in front of him.

Zhao Liang hurriedly sat down and said, Director, foreign exchange is very precious. How many pairs of socks must be sold in our country to earn 10 million US dollars, but I found that there is a company that wastes 10 million dollars with a single word. Dollars!

Zhao Liang said, took out the report of the American media Millions of Boys and handed it to the director.

This time, Zhao Liang was well prepared, and he found all the newspapers that could report the news.

Seeing that so many American media reported this matter, the director also felt that the news was true and credible.

I said Xiao Zhao, an American player gets an endorsement of 10 million dollars. Even if he is not worthy of his name, what does it have to do with our country? the director asked.

Of course it has something to do with us, Director, look, this brand that sponsors 10 million US dollars in endorsement fees is called Feiyue, which is the Feiyue sneaker of our country! Zhao Liang said.

Are you sure? The director said with a puzzled look: It seems that this brand of sneakers is no longer available on the market!

Director, I have specifically verified that Feiyue shoes were originally produced by the Dafu Rubber Factory in China. Not long ago, the Dafu Rubber Factory sold the brand to a private owner.

Zhao Liang went on to say: This private owner is Li Weidong, the chairman of Puppy Group. The sponsorship fee of 10 million US dollars is also paid by Li Weidong! In other words, Li Weidong caused the loss of foreign exchange of 10 million US dollars!

The director thought for a moment and said, Advertising endorsements should be regarded as a commercial activity. Even if the publicity effect is not satisfactory, it cannot be said that it must be a loss of foreign exchange, right?

Zhao Liang immediately explained: Why isn't there a loss of foreign exchange! These advertising endorsements are all for celebrities. I have already asked my senior in the United States to inquire about this player named Kobe, and he can't be regarded as a star at all!

He can't even play a starter now, and is still a backup in the team. Looking for such a player to endorse, how can there be any publicity effect! This is completely throwing money into the sea, and it is still 10 million US dollars in foreign exchange!

The so-called good steel must be used on the edge of the knife. Our country's foreign exchange is so precious, and every cent of foreign exchange must be spent carefully. There are so many foreign advanced technologies and advanced equipment that need foreign exchange to introduce, how can precious foreign exchange be wasted in such a place!

If every enterprise is like this, you waste 10 million, I waste 10 million, then how can our country have the money to purchase advanced technology and advanced equipment!

So I think this is worthy of our in-depth coverage! We media people should go and expose all these dark places!

The director frowned. The topic of wasting 10 million US dollars in foreign exchange is indeed a gimmick, enough to attract many readers.

And as Zhao Liang said, the country's foreign exchange is very precious, every penny is earned by selling cheap clothes, shoes and socks, so foreign exchange must not be wasted!

The media has a role of supervision. As a conscientious media person, if you find that someone has caused a loss of 10 million US dollars in foreign exchange, but you are indifferent, it will be a dereliction of duty.

What's more, this time, Zhao Liang also prepared a lot of information, which seems to be true.

So the director nodded: Well then, Xiao Zhao, I'll give you another chance. But there is one point I want to emphasize, the authenticity of the news reports must be guaranteed, and we can't make fake news like the ghost castle last time. !

...

In a restaurant in the United States, Liu Jing went to the bathroom while brushing the dishes.

In the corner of the bathroom, there was a newspaper. Liu Jing glanced at it and found that it reported the latest vote count results for the NBA All-Star Game.

Liu Jing subconsciously picked up the newspaper to see who had entered the All-Star team.

The All-Star vote leader is still Michael Jordan, which is completely expected.

In the Western All-Star vote count, Liu Jing saw a familiar name: Kobe Bryant!

Kobe Bryant, isn't this the player Zhao Liang asked me about? According to his current number of votes, can he make the All-Star starter? Isn't he a backup rookie?

Liu Jing felt guilty for a while, he felt as if he had tricked Zhao Liang!
