9pm, Asia Daily.
In the factory, the machines are constantly running and the workers are full of passion and enthusiasm.
The smell of ink had not yet dissipated, and the cold outline of the typesetting machine cast a long shadow under the pale fluorescent light.
Gao Qiaohao rubbed the corners of his sore eyes and looked at the motionless figure by the window, who was now well-known in the business community of Hong Kong Island as "Kobayashi Tenmo".
He was staring at the dark night outside the window. The neon lights were flowing in the distance, but they could not illuminate the deep pools in his eyes.
"Xiao Lin-kun," Gao Qiaohao approached, his voice hoarse with fatigue, "It's already late, I'll be able to watch over here, you can go back and rest first.
Tomorrow... there will be a tough battle to fight."
Lin Huowang didn't look back, but just waved his hand gently. The movement was not big, but it revealed his unquestionable persistence.
"Nothing. I'll see it in person once it's typeset and printed."
The "it" he mentioned was the proof of the second issue of Asia Daily, which had just been edited and was about to be printed. This propaganda weapon had already stirred up the situation in Hong Kong.
After a moment of silence, he seemed to remember something, turned his head, and asked, "By the way, Gao Qiaojun, is there anything going on with Shangguan Xiaobao and Huang Yulang?
Didn't the news scare them to death?"
Hearing this, Gao Qiaohao smiled a mixture of mockery and satisfaction, dispelling some of his tiredness.
"Boss, it's really true... We originally only planned to spread some rumors in a few low-profile tabloids to test the waters.
But then I thought, why should outsiders get the inside scoop on such explosive information?
Since we are going to publish the Asia Daily, it is natural that we should fire the first shot ourselves to make it louder and more impactful!
Who could have imagined that the sound of this cannon would shake the entire Hong Kong Island three times?"
He paused, his tone holding a hint of laughter: “Our people have been keeping an eye on the two of them.
Guess what?
Less than half a day after the news appeared in the newspaper, the two "great talents" didn't even bother to go home, and rushed out of the company in a hurry. Their luggage seemed to have been bought at a roadside stall, and they headed straight for Kai Tak Airport!
I bought the fastest flight ticket and flew abroad!
I guess he's already gasping for breath at an altitude of 10,000 meters."
After Gao Qiaohao finished speaking, a layer of deep confusion appeared on his face in addition to excitement.
He took half a step forward, lowered his voice, and said with confusion and a hint of unwillingness: "But, Boss, I... I still can't figure it out.
Since our people can keep a close eye on them, why don’t we just stop them at the airport?
Or just catch him directly?
Stuck in Hong Kong Island and held in hands, aren't they like two bombs that can explode at any time and point to Peter Ho?
Isn't it more effective to deal with the Huo family this way?"
Lin Huowang finally turned around, there was no surprise on his face, only an almost cold calmness.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes. Instead, he revealed a chilling look that could see through people's hearts.
"Mr. Gao Qiao, you only see the power of the bomb, but you don't see the risk of holding it in your hand."
He walked to his desk and said seriously, "Holding a bomb in your hand can certainly deter your opponent, but the fuse may also burn you.
More importantly... if it really explodes, it'll be a life-or-death struggle, with no room for maneuver. I let them go precisely for this effect.
This is called 'fighting without breaking'.
Shangguan Xiaobao and Huang Yulang were like frightened birds, living in fear and anxiety all day long while abroad.
They dare not come back until this matter is concluded.
And here we are..."
Lin Huowang picked up a report on the table and casually tossed it to Gao Qiaohao, "This is the confession of that Fatty Kun.
He has come to me on his own initiative to be a witness.
Tomorrow's headline for our Asia Daily has already been written..."
Lin Huowang's voice was low, but every word was clear, filled with cold calculation: "'Fatty Kun personally testified: Shangguan Xiaobao and Wong Yuk-lang were the masterminds, and Peter Ho, out of jealousy, instigated the sabotage of the printing of 'Dragon Jump'."
Gao Qiaohao took the report and his pupils shrank slightly.
He instantly understood Lin Huowang's plan.
Without direct eyewitness evidence from the two intermediary links, Shangguan Xiaobao and Wong Yuk-long, no matter how harsh Fatty Kun's accusations were, he could only implicate Shangguan Xiaobao and Wong Yuk-long, but could not form a complete chain of evidence to directly implicate Ho Chun-ting.
This leaves a delicate gray area - the Huo family can deny it and shirk responsibility, but they cannot completely clear themselves of suspicion.
Public opinion will continue to ferment and pressure will continue to be exerted, but on the surface, both sides, especially the Huo family, have not yet reached the point where they are completely at odds and must fight to the death.
"In this way," Lin Huowang walked to the window and looked towards Deep Water Bay, as if he could see the brightly lit Huo family mansion, "Huo Zhenting has been splashed with dirty water and can't wash it off, but he can't completely overturn the table with me.
And I...have enough time and space to play with him properly.
The game has just begun, why rush to overturn the chessboard? "
After hearing this, Gao Qiaohao's doubts disappeared, replaced by sincere admiration and awe.
He looked at Lin Huowang's back and felt that the figure seemed even more unfathomable in the night.
He couldn't help but take a deep breath and sighed sincerely, "Boss... your move is really... too good!"
This is not only a tactical victory, but also a far-reaching strategic layout.
He seemed to see an invisible big net, which was quietly spreading across the night sky of Hong Kong Island in response to Lin Huowang's every command.
