310: Chapter 310: The Final Winner 310: Chapter 310: The Final Winner Seeing that Lin Guotai had gone as far as to publicly confront Zhou Hequan for his sake, Tangyu also felt deeply moved, experiencing a sense of familial bond.
“Zhou Hequan, I solemnly warn you, if you dare trouble Tangyu again, I will make sure it’s not over between us.” Lin Guotai was like a tiger that had just woken up, his face stern as he spoke.
His tone did not allow for any doubt as to the sincerity of his words.
Zhou Hequan trembled all over, his face turning a few shades paler.
Both figures were prominent in Donglin City, each a family head within influential circles; generally, they maintained their dignified appearances and did not let grievances escalate into public disputes.
However, Lin Guotai had publicly accused him over soone seemingly unimportant, which Zhou found deeply uncomfortable.
“Humph, is there a need to go this far for an outsider?
Let’s leave today’s matter as it is.
I take my leave,” Zhou Hequan coldly remarked.
“Outsider?” Lin Guotai scoffed, “Tangyu is the future son-in-law of the Lin Family, any move against him is a direct challenge to .
Should this happen again, don’t bla for being rude.
Take heed.”
Tangyu’s heart stirred.
Although he knew that Uncle Lin was helping him, the statent was undoubtedly a warning to the Zhou Family to reconsider their actions in the future.
But on another level, could it an that Uncle Lin recognized his relationship with Lin Feifei?
Now that his relationship with Lin Feifei was confird, he would eventually need to deal with their parents, so getting closer beforehand wouldn’t hurt.
Tangyu pondered how he should discuss this with Uncle Lin.
“Hm,” Zhou Hequan’s eyes flickered over Tangyu with a complex expression, snorted heavily, and quickly left as the car door slamd shut and the motorcade sped away.
“Uncle Lin, thank you, I am really alright; they can’t do anything to ,” Tangyu thanked him with a smile, knowing this was the ti to impress, otherwise winning his father-in-law’s approval would hardly be easy.
“Oh,” Lin Guotai chuckled in surprise, “It seems I’ve been overzealous.”
“How could that be?
The Zhou Family is a colossal force, I couldn’t possibly intimidate them.
I’m rely trying to be brave in the face of adversity.
With less strife the better, and with Uncle Lin stepping in, I think my life will be a lot easier,” Tangyu replied.
Lin Guotai nodded, “Zhou Hequan is certainly a cunning and devious old fox.
With my warning, he might hesitate to challenge you openly, but what he might do behind your back is uncertain.
In any case, it’s still better for you to be careful in the future.”
“Yes, I understand,” Tangyu nodded.
“Let’s go to where you’re staying and sit for a while.
It’s been two weeks since we’ve seen each other, and you don’t bother to co ho.
It seems I have to be the one to visit,” Lin Guotai said with a hint of reproach.
Tangyu chuckled awkwardly, “I’m sorry, Uncle Lin; it’s just that I’ve been really busy at the company recently.
Tonight, I and Feifei will co over to stay.”
“Haha, good, I’ll have the servants prepare dinner then.
I’ve heard about your company, and you’ve perford well this ti.
Keep up the good work,” Lin Guotai said with a robust laugh.
Tangyu couldn’t help but wonder if Uncle Lin already knew about his confird relationship with Feifei?
Why did his tone seem a bit off?
——
It was still at the Shangri-La Hotel, but this ti they didn’t use the large conference room as before; instead, they held a press conference in a dium-sized conference room.
For a giant like Dali Group, a press conference was enough to be significant news in Donglin City, and reporters from major dia had arrived early to cover the entire event, while nurous paparazzi were also openly ready with their caras in designated areas.
When Zhang Guoli entered the conference room escorted by a celebrity of the entertainnt industry, it imdiately caused quite a stir, and caras from various dia started clicking wildly at him.
Zhang Guoli was a major figure in Donglin’s entertainnt industry, always the center of dia attention, and he was a master at manipulating dia to amplify the impact of an event, just as his previous high-profile appearance with Lu Xi at the Dali Group product launch had stirred major gossip.
This ti, bringing another celebrity was a similar strategy.
Many reporters discussed quietly among themselves and took notes, predicting that Zhang Guoli and his companion would dominate the headlines of major entertainnt dia the next day.
Zhang Guoli was not dubbed the ‘King of Hype’ for nothing.
Zhang Guoli was in high spirits today, smiling because last night, Manager Duan had inford him to attend today’s press conference, only after his insistence did Duan reveal that the collaboration was for him.
This good news naturally made him extrely happy.
Hmm, even if Xinxin Literature and Art managed to secure Huangfu Jing as a spokesperson, so what?
The decision-making power still lay in the hands of Dali Group’s executives.
Since the last press conference was postponed by three days, Zhang Guoli saw a glimr of opportunity and had been exchanging information with Manager Duan until the confirmation last night.
Zhang Guoli could finally vent his pent-up frustrations, how could he not be pleased?
After Zhang Guoli took his place at the designated VIP area, Chen Haotian of Tianyi Advertising also followed.
Contrary to Zhang’s flamboyance, Chen entered quietly flanked by two bodyguards and took a seat next to Zhang.
The last to arrive were Zhao Xinxin, Tangyu, and Liu Shanshan; their arrival also attracted so dia attention and photography.
Xinxin Literature and Art was indeed erging as a dark horse.
Seeing Zhao Xinxin and the others arrive, Zhang Guoli squinted his eyes, let out a cold laugh, and withdrew his hateful gaze from Tangyu, turning to Zhao Xinxin, “President Zhao, you’ve rushed over to congratulate today, that’s very thoughtful.”
Zhao Xinxin raised her eyebrows, clearly catching the implication in Zhang Guoli’s words, plus a thought flashed through her mind.
Seeing Zhang’s complacent and confident deanor, could there be an unexpected turn of events?
“Manager Duan called three days ago, saying the partner was himself, didn’t he?”
Zhao Xinxin paid no mind to Zhang Guoli and took her seat.
Tangyu sneered inwardly.
Zhang Guoli probably didn’t know that the situation had changed again last night, did he?
Soon, we’ll see just how ugly his expression can turn.
Under everyone’s anticipation, the three responsible persons of the new Dali product finally made their appearance and sat down at the main table.
The spokesperson for this press conference, also a middle-level leader of Dali Group, made it apparent just how much the group valued this new product plan.
“Ladies and gentlen, friends from the dia, hello.
First, please allow to sincerely thank all of you on behalf of Dali Group for your presence here today, thank you!” the spokesperson said loudly and energetically, speaking officialdom very appropriately.
After finishing, he bowed deeply to everyone around the hall, drawing a thunderous round of applause.
After more officialese, the spokesperson said, “Now, let Dali Group’s primary responsible manager for this new product strategy, Manager Duan, announce the partner for the first phase of this new product strategy and our new product’s brand image spokesperson.”
The critical mont arrived.
Zhao Xinxin also perked up, sitting upright with a flicker of keen light in her eyes as she watched the stage.
Zhang Guoli also beca spirited, but his face still bore a victorious smile, as if he was reaching out to grasp the imminent fruits of victory.
Amidst fervent applause, Manager Duan also looked around, paused for a mont, then said, “I announce that the partner for the first phase of this Dali new product strategy is—Xinxin Literature and Art Co., Ltd., and our brand’s spokesperson is—everyone’s favorite, Huangfu Jing.”
Boom!!!
As Manager Duan’s voice fell, the whole venue suddenly exploded like a great bomb had detonated, a sound of astonishnt filling the air.
This result surprised many people.
For a mont, Zhao Xinxin and Tangyu beca the focus of the dia, with nearly all caras frenziedly snapping photos of them.
Clearly, the headlines of major dia outlets tomorrow would inevitably feature Zhao Xinxin.
After hearing Manager Duan’s announcent, Zhao Xinxin finally relaxed, letting out a sigh of relief as her heart settled down.
She also smiled happily, stood up, cooperatively posed for the photographers, and smiled and nodded in thanks to each one.
Tangyu smiled.
He had known the outco all along, but seeing Zhao Xinxin so happy still made him very pleased.
A man’s achievent is in making the woman he cares about happy.
Tangyu looked over at Zhang Guoli and saw that his face was extrely unsightly, as if he was bereaved.
His face flickered between red, white, cyan, and black, presenting a rather amusing spectacle.
His lips quivered slightly, muttering sothing inaudible.
This series of blows was too much for Zhang Guoli.
Hadn’t it been agreed that the partner would be himself?
Why the sudden change of heart?
Was he played by Mr.
Duan?
Zhang Guoli’s murderous gaze shifted to Manager Duan, who responded with a helpless expression.
There was nothing he could do; after all, it had been a last-minute directive from President Zhou the night before.
“Miss Zhao, our dia has also been predicting the final partnership holder for this Dali new product, and I am very sorry that your Xinxin Culture and Art has always been ranked last, yet you ended up as the winner.
Can you share your secret to success?”
“Miss Zhao, what’s your personal view about this dark horse event?”
“Miss Zhao, can you reveal how you managed to defeat Shengshi dia and Tianyi Advertising to secure the final victory?”
“Miss Zhao, is that handso guy your boyfriend?”
The journalists asked difficult, sharp, and very direct questions one after another.
Their greatest weapon was their questions; they asked about everything imaginable, including brash inquiries that stripped down generations.
Faced with this flood of questions, Zhao Xinxin smiled amiably without responding imdiately.
Answering reporters’ questions required utmost caution to avoid attracting trouble, as their pens could be quite mighty.
“Ladies and gentlen of the press, please now welco the lovely CEO of Xinxin Literature and Art, Miss Zhao Xinxin, to the stage to speak.
Then everyone can ask their questions one by one, it’s too much for Miss Zhao to answer alone, isn’t it?” the spokesperson’s booming voice announced, calming the enthusiastic journalists as they returned to their seats, and Zhao Xinxin confidently walked up to the stage, her speech ready from the night before.
Tangyu turned away and noticed Zhang Guoli glaring at him with a chilling and threatening gaze.
“Our battle has just begun,” Tangyu said with a light smile.
Zhang Guoli’s lips twitched.
Now he realized that this guy had been ddling all along, “Hope you can still smile tomorrow.”
“I will, just afraid you won’t be able to,” Tangyu nodded.
