Chapter 698: Aerial Fight
Banking institutions, partners, economists, industry peers, regulatory leaders, a few good friends, righteous passersby...
In just two days, when Fang Zhuo didn't want to speak out against Zhou Kaixuan, he watched these people stand up.
So what can I say?
It is difficult to be quiet by being quiet.
Because, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop.
Li Jiacheng undoubtedly has a great influence. Zhou Kaixuan wants to use his name to blow a gust of wind. Such a move caused everyone to counterattack naturally. They had to directly define it when they were not sure whether the richest Chinese man really wanted to get involved.
Fang Zhuo felt that this reaction was quite extreme, but it was not easy to say anything.
However, he was still a little unhappy when he saw Sina Finance directly write his words in the news.
Fang Zhuo called Sina and asked them not to lead the rhythm. After all, Sina's movements could easily be regarded as his direct statement, and the role of the news media should be used if it could be avoided.
When the Sina Finance editorial department heard what the boss meant, they realized that they seemed to have misunderstood.
On the evening of November 4, after two days of storms, everything seemed to be calm. Zhou Kaixuan was silent, Li Fund was silent, and only the Royal Bank of Scotland was still making some noise that was not a cause for concern.
"Mr. Fang, there should be no changes in the cooperation with Bank of China, right? Zhou Kaixuan should have stopped talking." Kong Yu, the head of MIGA Fund, talked about the public opinion situation after reporting the fund situation to his boss.
"Zhou Kaixuan stopped talking because she saw the final conclusion of the supervision. She would not waver in her decision on the British bank if she continued to talk." Fang Zhuo replied.
Kong Yu observed that Li Jiacheng, who was being used by Zhou Kaixuan, had not spoken out. He asked again, "Is Li Jiacheng still in Beijing? Now that the dust has settled, he shouldn't have any more trouble."
Fang Zhuo pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Li Fund has been eliminated from the cooperation with Bank of China. This is indeed settled, but we haven't reached a cooperation with Bank of China after all... However, considering that the regulatory authorities have stepped in, he has been through so many ups and downs for so many years. The funds involved this time are not much, but not much. Probably there won't be anything else. He still has a lot of business in the mainland. The water doesn't compete for the first place, but the endless flow."
Kong Yu thought, this old Li is over 70 years old this year, and he shouldn't have many years left. How can he compete with the boss for endless flow?
Fang Zhuo added, "Li Jiacheng is still very powerful. It's just a temporary dispute. This time, the outside voices are too anxious. In fact, it's unnecessary."
Although it's after the fact, Kong Yu can really feel that his boss has been calm all the time. He likes such a storm, but since Mr. Fang said so, of course he nodded in agreement.
Kong Yu chatted for a few more words and got up to leave the suite. Due to the time difference, the affairs of the MIGA Fund are busier at night than during the day.
Fang Zhuo was the only one left in the room.
He added tea and picked up the preparation report of Yiguo. There was only one week left before Double Eleven. The storm of Bank of China should have passed. We should see more about the performance of Yiguo's big promotion this time.
...
Just when the regulatory authorities made the final decision, Fang Zhuo remained calm, Zhou Kaixuan and Li Jiacheng gathered the situation and planned to leave Beijing, the first "Huaxia Securities News" that interviewed Zhou Kaixuan did not get the latest news for several consecutive days and could only be a follower of reprinting. The newspaper reporters looked at the high popularity and couldn't help feeling anxious.
Obviously, I was the first!
As a result, not only did Sina Finance and other online media harvest a lot of traffic, but some paper media also sold well by writing nonsense, which was really unethical!
How can journalists not stick to authenticity?
Xu Xiao, the reporter responsible for this wave of reports, thought about it and believed that in today's Internet age, we should neither give up the authenticity of news nor be inflexible.
He observed that despite the news disturbances in the past few days, the two most critical and core figures were actually silent - Li Jiacheng and Fang Zhuo were both silent. Fang Zhuo seemed to have an informal response, but it was not guaranteed that it was also a headline party of Sina Finance.
Therefore, if we can get an interview with Li Jiacheng and Fang Zhuo, then "Huaxia Securities News" will definitely stand out!
This possibility is not very high, but Xu Xiao decided to try a flexible method.
He decided to find Li Jiacheng first. Li Jijin was at a disadvantage this time, and he must have something to talk about.
Xu Xiao did not have Li Jiacheng's phone number, but had Zhou Kaixuan's number, so he called Ms. Zhou.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou, I'm Xu Xiao, the reporter from Huaxia Securities News who interviewed you last time." Xu Xiao called.
Zhou Kaixuan saw that there was an interview intersection and did not hang up the phone immediately, but still said coldly: "What's the matter? I don't accept the interview."
Xu Xiao said: "I want to interview Mr. Li, just a few words on the phone."
Zhou Kaixuan said disdainfully: "Hang up."
However, just before she took the phone away from her ear, the reporter's voice came from the phone.
"Wait, wait, I have interviewed Fang Zhuo, shouldn't Mr. Li say a few words at this juncture?" Xu Xiao said flexibly.
Zhou Kaixuan put the phone back to his ear in astonishment. Mr. Li misjudged!
In the past two days, Mr. Fang has not really spoken in the media. Mr. Li thought that he would not take the initiative to show up again. Unexpectedly, he still accepted the interview!
He wanted to sneak attack!
"What did he say?" Zhou Kaixuan asked coldly.
Xu Xiao said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "I can't disclose the content of the interview now, but I think Mr. Li should probably have a response, something simple would be fine."
Zhou Kaixuan was silent for a while, believing the bottom line of the mainland media, and said, "Wait a minute."
Xu Xiao listened to the sound of footsteps leaving on the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. Lucky, lucky.
Soon, the phone was picked up again and it was changed to Li Jiacheng.
Xu Xiao said hello politely, cherishing this hard-won interview opportunity, and asked him his opinion on Li Fund's missed cooperation with Bank of China.
Li Jiacheng's attitude was calm, not angry or annoyed. He just wished the development of Bank of China and the domestic financial market better development. By the way, he talked about the foundation's charity work in China.
Xu Xiao was very satisfied when he heard this kind of response from the person involved. However, what shocked him the most was Li Jiacheng's last words.
Li Jiacheng joked: "I haven't been to the mainland for a long time, but I didn't expect to see a Fang sect this time. Kaixuan said that I was a bit shabby. I told her, live and learn. This is where talented people come from. "
Xu Xiao was shocked when he heard this, and then Li Jiacheng politely ended the call, and the phone turned into a blind tone.
Li Jiacheng openly admitted the failure of the foundation and generously blessed Bank of China's development. At the end, he only mentioned the word "Fang Faction" in a humorous tone.
this……
Xu Xiao felt that these words were quite heartbreaking. If this report came out, who might fall into their ears.
Moreover, this time many people did stand up to speak to Fang Zhuo.
Xu Xiao hesitated for a while, then called Mr. Fang as planned and said that she wanted to interview him.
"Haha, I won't accept interviews." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "There is already a lot of news. Xu Xiao, I will mark your number. Next time there is news, I will notify you first. Even Sina will post it. Later, okay?”
Mr. Fang's attitude was kind, and he even said what Sina said later.
Whether it's true or not, this attitude makes people feel comfortable.
Xu Xiao was still flexible: "Mr. Fang, it's like this. Li Jiacheng has already accepted our phone interview. Maybe... I think it would be better for you to respond."
Fang Zhuo was surprised and didn't quite believe this. He asked, "Really?"
Xu Xiao replied steadily: "Really, Mr. Fang, I have the recording of the phone interview on my phone."
Fang Zhuo changed his mind and asked, "This really surprises me. Since you think I responded better, did he mention me?"
Xu Xiao hesitated.
After about ten seconds, he thought about Mr. Fang's need to mark his number, and the difference between the richest man in the mainland and the richest Chinese man, and said euphemistically: "He talked about the foundation, and only mentioned Mr. Fang at the end, I think Mr. Fang’s style in the Mainland is unique and worth learning.”
Xu Xiao decided to just say it. As for whether Mr. Fang can understand...
The call was not hung up, but the other side was quiet for a while, and finally Mr. Fang's voice came, "That's it...".
"How will your newspaper publish it? Is it to refine the meaning or the original words?" Fang Zhuo asked.
Xu Xiao guessed that Fang always understood his euphemism and replied: "Exact words, well, Mr. Fang, after all, since we have interviewed him, they will definitely pay attention to the content of our reports."
Fang Zhuo said awkwardly: "Then this is not good."
Xu Xiao was silent. The report would definitely come out. Mr. Fang had been given time now. However, it seemed that it would not be easy to respond if it were him.
Fang Zhuo thought for a while: "Now this is a formal interview. Let me talk about the efforts of MIGA Fund to cooperate with banks."
He cleared his throat and talked seriously about MIGA Fund's efforts in cooperating with ICBC, contacting U.S. Bank and Washington Mutual Bank, and communicating with Deutsche Bank. The cooperation with Bank of China was an on-the-spot emergency.
Finally, Fang Zhuo responded positively to the recent turmoil: "It sounds like rain from the outside. In fact, it is normal business cooperation and competition. It is not as complicated as everyone thinks."
"I personally admire Mr. Li very much. He played a great role in the construction and development of Xiangjiang. My friends often joke with me, saying 'a city of family, a city of one family'. Mr. Li is a living legend, Ms. Zhou He also warmly invited me. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely visit Xiangjiang and ask for advice. ”
Fang Zhuo paused for a few seconds and asked, "Xu Xiao, is it okay if I respond like this?"
Xu Xiao was stunned.
this……
Li Jiacheng said that Fang Zhuo was a Fang sect in the mainland, and Fang Zhuo said that Xiangjiang had become a city for the Li family...
These two people...
He did not dare to give any advice and said: "Mr. Fang, no matter how you respond, I will report it truthfully here."
"Oh, that's it." Fang Zhuo said lightly, "I'll come back to Shanghai next time and see if there's any big-selling news for you. Xu Xiao, let me just say this first."
The call is over.
Xu Xiao listened to the recording of the phone interview between the two celebrities again.
The two men discussed their business in a very light manner, but the last sentence showed their edge.
Xu Xiao was a little hesitant whether to publish this report or not...
He reported the interview to the police.
The editor-in-chief personally made the decision: "Send it!"
Then - send it!
Or expedited delivery!
On just the next day, "China Securities Journal" published press releases simultaneously in print media and online, becoming the media that exclusively interviewed the parties involved in the recent public opinion.
——"I haven't been to the mainland for a long time, but I didn't expect to see a Fang faction this time..."
——"Home city, home city, family city..."
One is the richest Chinese, the other is the richest mainlander.
One has stood firm in Hong Kong after decades of ups and downs, the other is riding the Internet and becoming the leader in the mainland.
Originally, although there were many news and analyses about MIGA and the Li Foundation, and there were also headlines on Sina Finance that attracted attention, people in the circle and gossipers generally believed that the two would not respond directly according to their identities and would handle the matter coldly.
Unexpectedly, as the storm was about to subside, they fought head-on in the air.
One stabbed at the heart, and the other pulled at the lungs.
As for who has the upper hand, everyone can only have their own opinions. Anyway, the hatred between the two is probably real and cannot be easily settled.
The Sina Finance editorial department saw the report of "Huaxia Securities News" and realized that it seemed to have misunderstood the meaning. Don't lead the rhythm, don't lead the rhythm...
Yes, don't lead the rhythm, the boss will lead it himself!
