Chapter 938 News Storm
The dispute at the press conference quickly became a hot news for various media, appearing in many European and American newspapers, and it even reached Australia in the southern hemisphere through radio waves.
Murdoch was a media tycoon who rose from an Australian tabloid. Needless to say, his business legend is, the 1980s was the period when News Group expanded its territory and built a solid and great cause. At this time, who dared to rub his tiger beard?
But unexpectedly, he was ridiculed by the organizers because of a small post-f1 press conference.
Many media seized this report that could attract attention, and after adding fuel to the fire, it quickly pushed it to the public. The next day, the news appeared in various newspapers, and some newspapers even set it as headlines to attack this old opponent.
People curiously saw the newspaper reports about Murdoch being ridiculed. This was the first time someone dared to associate the news giant with the third edition girl. Of course, it doesn't matter who caused the storm. People only focused on Murdoch and the News Corp's subsequent reactions.
In addition, people are more curious about who Lin Johnson is, and dare to mock the world's rich man who has a net worth of tens of billions of dollars.
Of course, there are also many introductions about Johnson Lin in the news. Some American news media who know him almost made him a bottom.
It turns out that this person who dares to ridicule Murdoch is also a world rich man. He is also on the Forbes World Rich Rankings that began in 1982.
According to Forbes, this guy's wealth is estimated to be worth $22 billion, and has been ranked among the top ten in the global rich list for three consecutive years.
His Dongxing Group mainly deals in electronic and automotive products, involving computer manufacturing and automobile manufacturing. The famous Compaq and Dell, amc are both his companies. He also founded the rapidly developing Cisco. In recent years, it has expanded into the consumer goods field and has become increasingly diversified.
Lin Johnson was only a year old, but in just 10 years he created a business empire with a output of tens of billions of dollars. He was even more legendary than another Chinese rich man, Wang An. No wonder he could make fun of Murdoch. It turned out that this was a war between rich people.
Only then did people carefully look at the conflicts between the two, and then they learned that it was at the press conference of the Dongxing Convoy that the Sun reporter provoked Lin Johnson, which allowed the young rich man to make these strange remarks.
Of course, this is some media friendly to Johnson Lin. But some media controlled by Murdoch are not so polite. The Sun is very angry with Johnson Lin, who describes him as an uneducated nouveau riche.
The old-school tradition The Times also criticized Lin Johnson for not commenting on other people's hobbies casually, and pointed out that the third edition of the Sun's girl was published before Murdoch News Group acquired it, and basically its development has nothing to do with Murdoch himself.
However, the equally famous British tabloid, The World News, has taken unusual reports on Johnson Lin, and has repeatedly mentioned Johnson Lin's history of making his fortune in a very short period of time.
Then he slandered his company on Red China, and revealed to people that Lin Johnson had concealed a large amount of property. In fact, most of his assets were invested in the Japanese stock market and real estate market that had been storming recently, and participated in this collective feast of hot money in the world. His vicious thoughts have been revealed to the newspapers, and he was simply telling the IRS that you might as well check this guy, he is very suspicious.
"Is this f**k? The clowns from the World News dare to slander me like this. I want to sue them!" Lin Qiangsheng was very angry and slapped the newspaper and cursed loudly.
Esther walked over in his pajamas and took the newspaper over: "Don't be angry, anyway, these newspapers are full of random speculations, you'd better be calm now!"
Lin Johnson gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid that the IRS will take it seriously and will affect my investment plan!"
Esther asked in confusion: "Are you really evading taxes on the IRS? This is a very serious matter!"
Lin Johnson retorted: "Of course there is no more. The IRS has to check me almost every year. I am not a fool. I will give them a handle to fine me!"
Esther smiled and said, "That's good. If you really do something, those hunting dogs will be excited to death!"
Lin Johnson laughed and said, "It's very appropriate to compare the IRS to a hound. They are not hunting dogs, but evil dogs. They will bite them when they smell a little fragrance!"
At the same time, in an apartment on Fifth Avenue in New York where you can see Central Park, a middle-aged woman was smugly looking through the newspaper. She was Murdoch's second wife, Anna Toff.
She stared at Murdoch outside at the windowsill and said, "Rupert, you can see the news of the World News about the person who slandered you. He should be in trouble now. You should know that our News Corp cannot mess with you!"
Murdoch's eyes moved away from the taller and larger Rockefeller apartment, turned around and said to his wife, "Anna, did you instruct?"
Anna nodded to him, raised the newspaper in her hand and smiled, "Of course, I must not allow anyone to slander you wantonly." As she said that, she frowned and said, "What's more, this uneducated person actually insulted you like this is simply damn. He should pay the price for his nonsense!"
Looking at his strong wife, Murdoch shook his head and said, "Forget it, my dear, although I am also very angry, we should not be involved in such a dispute with another rich man. That will only make us feel powerless, don't give others the chance to joke, and let the newspapers under it stop reporting this matter!"
Anna asked in surprise: "Do you just let the other party go and don't let him pay some price?"
Murdoch nodded and said, "The war between the rich can only be defeated, because we almost have unlimited ammunition!"
Anna thought for a while, nodded, but said toughly: "Okay, I will let this matter go. However, if the other party continues to be rude, we must make him pay the price!"
Murdoch looked at his high-spirited wife with a little helplessness, so he walked up to her with a smile and sat beside her, saying, "Dear Maria, I feel much better with you, thank you!"
Murdoch would only say this name when the two of them were tender. They have been married for 20 years, and Anna can still get the love of her husband. She hugged Murdoch's waist excitedly and felt the rare happiness.
"Rupert, how about we retire together in the future? Let's enjoy life together, which is what I look forward to!" Anna said imaginatively.
Murdoch frowned, loosened his hand in his arms around his wife, and said, "I didn't think about this matter, let's talk about it later!"
Anna didn't feel the changes in her husband, and she was still snuggling happily beside him.
At this time, Lin Johnson was also lingering with Esther. He vented all the excitement during the day on the woman. Esther could hardly bear it. He shouted loudly but was willing to cater to her. The power of the man really fascinated her.
Lin Qiangsheng, who was grunting like a pile driver, suddenly had an inspiration in his mind and thought of a thought.
Previously, he wanted Murdoch to have News Corp. This was equivalent to the mouthpiece of publicity. However, he did not have the same power to restrict it, allowing the other party to take the initiative.
If you can also grasp some public opinion, then you can promote whatever you want and slander your opponents as much as you want. This is so cool.
He thought to himself that there are still famous newspapers that have not been acquired by News Corporation. It is really troublesome. He does not know the news media without Murdoch, and his understanding of this aspect is almost blank. He has not noticed the importance of the media until now.
While he was thinking, Esther was quitting, crossed his hands and legs, moved his body and found a new position, shouting to Lin Johnson: "Please don't stop, my dear!"
Lin Johnson laughed and said to Esther: "Esther, I want to do something big!"
Esther's face flushed and he said more excitedly: "Come on, come on!" (To be continued.)
