The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

"What can I do? What can I do?" He Aying walked up and down anxiously, and said irritably, "Mr. Zhou, think of a way."

Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "Auntie, are you afraid you won't win the lawsuit? Or are you really forging documents and embezzling Zhang Damin's money?"

"How is it possible?" He Aying laughed awkwardly.

Zhou Hexuan threatened her and said, "Don't lie in front of me. If you tell the truth, a lawyer can help you with the lawsuit. Otherwise, you may go to jail."

"Prison?"

He Aying was taken aback, and finally bit the bullet and admitted: "Mr. Zhou, the situation at that time was like this. The master of the Zhang family had just passed away, and Zhang Damin alone divided up the inheritance of more than 100,000 oceans. He spent money like running water, eating, drinking and whoring Bet that everything is available, sooner or later the family property will be paid off. So..."

Zhou Hexuan sarcastically said: "So you 'saved' part of it for him?"

He Aying said embarrassingly: "It's not much, I just took a few thousand yuan from him. Even if I don't take it, he will squander the money sooner or later. I have to leave a way out for myself, right? Besides, that Zhang Damin has been Eat soft rice, cheated our family Ruan tens of thousands of yuan, and the things owed to him have already been doubled."

Zhou Hexuan was too lazy to listen to her explanation, and only warned: "Your mother and daughter will live here these few days, don't go anywhere, wait until I settle the matter."

"Okay, okay, listen to Mr. Zhou," He Aying nodded repeatedly, and then asked guiltyly, "I won't go to jail, will I?"

"What do you think?" Zhou Hexuan asked with a smile.

He Aying laughed dryly, "I believe in Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Hexuan got up and walked into the bedroom, Ruan Lingyu was standing in front of the window in a daze, looking out sadly.

"Don't be afraid, I will take care of it." Zhou Hexuan patted Ruan Lingyu's shoulder.

"I'm sorry to cause you trouble," Ruan Lingyu pointed to the reporters outside, "These people have not left, why don't I go out and explain?"

"There's no need for that," Zhou Hexuan said comfortingly, "You can stay at home and don't think too much about it. I'll be able to solve the matter soon."

"En." Ruan Lingyu responded, but her mood was still not high.

Zhou Hexuan called Yu Peichen and asked her to stay at home with Ruan Lingyu to relieve boredom, while he took Sun Yongzhen out by car.

"Mr. Zhou, I heard that Miss Ruan lives here?"

"Mr. Zhou, do you and Miss Ruan really love each other?"

"Mr. Zhou, do you support polygamy?"

"Mr. Zhou..."

As soon as the car drove out of the gate, a bunch of reporters surrounded it. Zhou Hexuan didn't bother to pay attention to it at all, and sat in the car with his eyes closed, letting the reporters slap on the windows.

...

Hardong Road, History Mansion.

Shi Liangcai gloated and joked: "Mingcheng is indeed a great talent, your love affair has spread all over Shanghai."

"What's the situation with "News?" Zhou Hexuan asked angrily.

Shi Liangcai explained: "Although I am a major shareholder of "News", I cannot interfere with the content of "News". For the distorted report of "News", I can do nothing but say sorry."

"Understood." Zhou Hexuan was a little depressed.

In the past two days, the relevant news reports were mainly tabloid newspapers. The slightly influential newspapers all had reservations for Zhou Hexuan's sake, and even if they reported it, they didn't pour dirty water on Zhou Hexuan.

Only "News", which is the second largest newspaper in the country by circulation, actually discussed Zhou Hexuan's adulterous relationship with Ruan Lingyu in a serious manner, which played a decisive role in fueling the flames.

Zhou Hexuan asked: "The news practitioners union we established can't manage this kind of thing?"

"It's difficult, the trade union has already existed in name only." Shi Liangcai smiled wryly.

Zhou Hexuan took out a paper bag and said, "Brother Liangcai, this is full of factual evidence, please report truthfully in your "Declaration"."

"Understood." Shi Liangcai smiled.

During the period of the Republic of China, there was no self-media, and the influence of radio stations was not great. It was the major newspapers and magazines that really had the right to speak. Even a dictator like Chang Kaishen has deep scruples about the enormous power of the newspaper, and is planning to assassinate Shi Liangcai.

Playing public opinion offensive with Zhou Hexuan?

Hehe, I think too much.

"Ta Kung Pao", "Shen Bao", "Jing Bao", "China Times", "Liangyou" pictorial, "Beiyang" pictorial, "Pin Bao", "Yishi Bao", "Oriental Daily", "Xinmin Daily", "New Tianjin News, Morning News, Beijing News, Shanghai Daily, Nanjing Evening News... The list can be very long. As soon as Zhou Hexuan called, more than 40 newspapers across the country were willing to help.

Of course, some newspapers took the opportunity to ask for benefits, and Zhou Hexuan just paid.

Things that can be solved with money are not a problem at all. After two days, dozens of newspapers across the country will work together to ensure that the direction of public opinion will be reversed in an instant.

Damage to reputation? impossible.

Zhou Hexuan even had time to take care of other things, he whispered: "Brother Liangcai, you have to be careful, you'd better go to the north to avoid the limelight."

"What did you hear?" Shi Liangcai suddenly became serious.

Zhou Hexuan nodded and said, "I have some friends in the spy system of the Kuomintang. Lao Jiang has already issued a kill order, and Dai Li will personally plan to attack you!"

Shi Liangcai was so angry that he clenched his fists: "A dictatorial warrior, harming the country and the people!"

Zhou Hexuan persuaded: "In terms of reporting, you should take your time and don't be too aggressive."

Over the past few years, "Shenbao" has been insisting on reporting progressive news, actively calling for democratic constitutionalism and anti-Japanese national salvation, which has completely angered Chang Kaishen. Moreover, Shi Liangcai was also very close to the Civil Rights League and the Left League. Many progressive articles that could not be published in Shenbao, Shi Liangcai also tried to arrange to be published in other publications.

A certain supplement of "Shenbao" has now become the headquarters of the Leftist League. Lu Xun has published more than 20 articles just by changing his vest. How can Chang Kaishen bear this kind of thing?

Shi Liangcai smoked a cigarette and thought hard, and finally he said: "I will consider ways and means, and I will not provoke the authorities deliberately. But some things cannot be compromised, and some news must not be reported. This is a matter of principle, and a Chinese journalist should have responsibility."

"I admire your personality." Zhou Hexuan could only say this.

Historically, in two months, Shi Liangcai would be assassinated by KMT agents.

"I have a million troops!"

"I have millions of readers!"

This was Shi Liangcai and Chang Kaishen's tit-for-tat threat. There is no doubt that the one with the gun wins, and the one with the pen can only leave a good name handed down from generation to generation.

In this regard, Zhou Hexuan was deeply ashamed.

The same newspaperman, Shi Liangcai was in trouble because of state affairs, but Zhou Hexuan was devastated because of dirty things.

Shi Liangcai smiled and said, "No matter what, thank you Mingcheng for reminding me, I plan to go to Tianjin to avoid the limelight."

"That's good." Zhou Hexuan was very happy.

Yang Xingfo was reminded and dissuaded by Zhou Hexuan several times at the beginning, but he still refused to restrain himself and forbear, so he couldn't escape the end of being assassinated, which is sad and respectable. Shi Liangcai was much more tactful, and he also spared his life. When he knew there was danger, he would not stick his neck out and wait for the spies to assassinate him.

Zhou Hexuan was very satisfied to be able to save the life of the king of newspaper industry. Under the auspices of Shi Liangcai, "Shenbao" can effectively promote the democratic struggle and effectively promote the anti-Japanese ideology, which is of great help to the country and the people.

In comparison, Zhou Hexuan's trivial matter is not worth mentioning.

Of course, breaking things is also a matter. Zhou Hexuan is not worried about public opinion. He has to consider deeper issues now.

It stands to reason that with the efficiency of the local courts of the Republic of China, Zhou Hexuan would have to wait at least one or two months before receiving the subpoena. This is where the crux of the matter lies. The court issued the subpoena too fast, and there must be someone behind the scenes who gave money to the head of the court.

Zhang Damin is just a small character, Zhou Hexuan can be crushed to death with one finger, he wants to find out who is behind the scenes.

Zhou Hexuan thought it was Tang Jishan who was causing trouble, but Boss Tang was wronged, and there were other people who played tricks!
