Chapter 162 Murder
Xiao Minmin and the wine network company's revelations about Zhao Jingxuan have caused a sensation on the Internet. In just three hours, the hot search list on Weibo has jumped to second place, and the number of clicks and messages on various post bars and forums has reached hundreds of thousands or even millions.
Such influence is undoubtedly a major victory for Lin Jun and Gu Lanxin. For Xiao Minmin who took the initiative and the editors behind the scenes of the Wine Network, they will naturally gain both fame and fortune.
However, this bribery and frame-up incident, which has gradually fermented and is getting bigger and bigger like a snowball, has become caught off guard and is so anxious.
In the 8th floor of the president's office in Xiangcheng Dukang Group Building, Zhao Jingxuan was wearing a silver-white OL career suit, sitting at his huge desk, browsing his Weibo messages on the computer screen, with a lot of insults and condemnations, which made her, even a very well-educated beauty, gradually rise to anger.
With a pretty face, Zhao Jingxuan excitedly picked up a box of high-end cigarettes on the desk, trembling with his slender hands, then sucked and turned around, and appeared in front of the huge and transparent floor-to-ceiling window.
She has always claimed to be smart and cautious. Since entering Dukang Wine Industry, she has experienced many storms, many difficult problems, difficult opponents and unfavorable events for six years, but she has never been so helpless this time.
Perhaps, it was not because she was at a loss, but because she underestimated Lin Jun and Gu Lanxin too much before.
Originally, in her eyes, these two people were local buns that came out of a small hill, and the other was just a little rich man who had never seen a big world in a small county town.
However, it was such a combination of local buns and little rich men who fought back for the first time, which made her fall into extreme passiveness.
Dingling.
Suddenly, a phone ringing sound interrupted Zhao Jingxuan's silent thoughts, forcing her to turn around and return to her desk to grab the phone.
"What's going on?" asked a hoarse man on the phone.
As soon as he heard this voice, Zhao Jingxuan immediately became respectful and said in a deep voice: "It's me that underestimated my opponent too much."
"They can be called opponents?" the man sneered.
"Young Master, I have the same opinion as you before." Zhao Jingxuan sighed and smiled self-deprecatingly: "But you have also seen it. This is not their first round of counterattack, but it has already made me very passive."
"Do they have the right to speak in the media?" the man said slowly. "They don't, and we have, what do you always make such low-level mistakes that are obsessed with the authorities and bystanders?"
"What do you mean?" Zhao Jingxuan glared with beautiful eyes and exclaimed: "Young master, I understand, I'm confused."
"Do it well, I don't want to waste time on such trivial matters." After the man said that, he hung up the phone.
Zhao Jingxuan put the phone back on the landline, then pressed a button and said in an unquestionable voice: "Come in, I have something to explain."
Just as she was at the bottom of her, a knock came from outside the closed office door.
Zhao Jingxuan stared at the computer screen while holding a burning cigarette, shouted in and continued to slide the mouse.
The office door was pushed open and a woman in a black lady's uniform broke in.
"Dr. Zhao."
Hearing the shout, Zhao Jingxuan, who was holding a cigarette, raised his head and said oh, "Bai Lu, go check what media is hyping the incident."
"No need to check it." Bai Lu shook her head and said in a deep voice: "It's Huaxia Wine Network."
"Huaxia Wine Network?" Zhao Jingxuan frowned.
She knew that things were going on. If the person who spread the news was any large-scale media in China, she could almost do it. Even if she couldn't do it, she could always help her by calling the headquarters.
However, Huaxia Wine Network has a big background because it is not an ordinary and media-oriented website, but a comprehensive website integrating alcohol observation, alcohol channel expansion forum, alcohol tasting and alcohol grade.
The most important thing is that the backstage behind Huaxia Wine Network is a behemoth that can almost compete with the Du family of Yanjing, and has super military background strength.
Such a media does not have oil and salt, and does not have water and fire, so it is not so bold to use the means.
However, Zhao Jingxuan is a smart woman with ice and snow. She pondered for a moment and asked again: "Which reporter from Meijiu.com has exposed this?"
"It's not clear at the moment." Bai Lu shook her head, suddenly looked at Zhao Jingxuan and asked, "Can it be the general's order intervening?"
"He?" Zhao Jingxuan's delicate body trembled and glared at Bai Lu in shock: "Will he interfere in such a small matter? Even if he intervenes, the young master will not know?"
Bai Lu also showed doubts: "According to the current situation, the man named Lin Jun is really a country bumpkin who came out of a small hill. Gu Lanxin has some strength in Xiangcheng, but it is impossible to drive the wine network. As for Long Feifan..."
"Long Feifan doesn't have this energy either." Zhao Jingxuan vetoed and said in a deep voice: "Go to check, you must find out who is complicated about the leak."
"What about our plan?" Bai Lu asked, staring at Zhao Jingxuan.
After pondering for a little while, Zhao Jingxuan slowly stood up, returned the cigarette butt in his hand to the ashtray, and thought with his chest hanging down his head.
This choice is really difficult because no matter how you choose, she is now passive.
Even if the news of the acquisition of the Baccarat brand is released now, it may not be able to cover up the sudden outbreak of this storm, and it may even cause trouble to escalate the so-called bribery and frame-up incident.
However, tomorrow's sugar and wine party will begin. If Lin Jun cannot be stopped from continuing to attend tomorrow's sugar and wine party before tonight, then there is almost no suspense that the Baccarat brand will win the throne of the wine champion of Xiangcheng Sugar and Wine Club.
Looking at Zhao Jingxuan walking around while thinking, Bai Lu blinked and said nothing.
She is responsible for monitoring Zhao Jingxuan's every move, but it does not mean that she can interfere with Zhao Jingxuan's decisions and ideas. Before her identity was exposed, she was a personal assistant to the president, and that's all.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Jingxuan raised his head and asked, "Help me have an appointment with the four major judges of the wine review of the sugar and wine party."
"I'm afraid it won't work." Bai Lu shook her head and said, "In order to maintain the fairness of the sugar and wine party, the four judges' staying points, information and contact information are not known to the outside world."
"Then let's go check it out." Zhao Jingxuan suddenly became angry and slapped him on the desk: "It's impossible to do this. What should the company do to raise a large group of commercial intelligence waste?"
"Sorry, Mr. Zhao." Bai Lu said helplessly: "According to the regulations, you have just taken over the CEO of Du Kang Xiangcheng Group and will not be able to contact them in less than a month."
"Damn the rules." Zhao Jingxuan gritted his teeth and turned around and said angrily: "I can only take care of both now. Or I can solve this storm first to avoid excessive interpretations from the outside world, which will cause great reputation damage to Dukang Wine Industry."
"What's the second?" Bai Lu asked with a stare.
"Second." Zhao Jingxuan gradually narrowed his eyes: "If Lin Jun cannot be stopped from attending tomorrow's Xiangcheng Candy and Wine Party, then he can only be eliminated tonight."
After hearing Zhao Jingxuan's murderous words, Bai Lu rolled her eyelids again and asked helplessly: "But have you ever thought about it? Lin Jun is also the protagonist in this storm today. At this time, isn't it just for the outside world to catch the excuse of attacking us? Do you think we want to cover up the truth, killing people to silence us?"
"Damn it."
Zhao Jingxuan overturned the boss's chair and turned around and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window.
She is now deeply aware of what it means to be in a dilemma and to be in a difficult situation. So, while she was angry, she had to start a review. Is today's series of practices calm or not impulsive to think carefully?
Another thing that worries her the most is that the bribery and frame-up incident that spread rapidly on the Internet only exposed photos, but no audio or video images appeared yet. Is this a flaw deliberately left by Lin Jun and Gu Lanxin?
Once they come forward to clarify, they are throwing out videos or audio to increase exposure and evidence, and they will fall into a more passive situation.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Jingxuan returned to his desk with a cold face, picked up his private cell phone and called Lin Jun.
Under Bai Lu's gaze, Zhao Jingxuan clenched his pink fist and asked bluntly the moment the phone was connected: "Mr. Lin, don't you think it's a bit too much?"
"What's too much?" Lin Jun asked with confusion on his phone.
Zhao Jingxuan sneered: "You have clearly promised to offer a sky-high price of 500 million yuan, give me time to consider it, and turn around and reveal to the media."
"I...what did I reveal?" Lin Jun asked in a daze.
Zhao Jingxuan laughed anxiously: "Mr. Lin, if you go back on your word, I think no one will cooperate with you in the future. Do you know that integrity is the most important thing in business?"
Lin Jun suddenly became angry: "No, beautiful Zhao Jingxuan, you said something in a fog. What does it mean? When did I reveal what? Why did you call me to teach me a lesson? Who do you think you are? God, your second child? Don't think that you are beautiful, I dare not scold you."
Zhao Jingxuan: “…”
Just when she was about to speak, she found that her phone had been hung up by Lin Jun.
"Bastard, he actually turned his back."
Zhao Jingxuan cursed at the phone in anger, and then she raised her head and stared at Bai Lu: "No matter what, Lin Jun will not be allowed to participate in the Sugar and Wine Club tomorrow. I don't care what method you use."
"Have you considered the consequences?" Bai Lu asked with a serious face.
"Thinking about it." Zhao Jingxuan gritted his silver teeth and said word by word: "It doesn't matter whether my reputation is bad or not, but Lin Jun and Gu Lanxin must be allowed to disappear in Xiangcheng. Only in this way can we turn the passiveness and resolve the storm in front of us, and completely block the Baccarat brand from the sugar and wine party."
"What do you mean is to capture the king first?" Bai Lu asked in surprise.
"Yes." Zhao Jingxuan said with a pretty face and murderous intent: "The root of all this is Lin Jun and Gu Lanxin. As long as they are controlled by us or disappear in Xiangcheng, we will have enough time to deal with the next problem."
Looking at Zhao Jingxuan's resolute expression, Bai Lu nodded in understanding and then turned around and left.
The things that Zhao Jingxuan needs to solve are the problems that he wants to solve, and the decision after thinking is what her assistant and right-hand man should do.
As the office door was slammed, Zhao Jingxuan, who was in the office, slammed the table with a pink fist, and said with red eyes: "Lin Jun, I'm sorry, although I admire you very much, you are indeed a huge trouble." At night, Lin Jun took Gu Lanxin and Xiao Minmin who stayed there for dinner, and continued to stay in the room to read messages and comments on Zhao Jingxuan's bribery and frame the door.
