She also said that once she has established herself at Asia Television and can truly stand on her own, she will come and repay you!"
Liu Rumeng emphasized the word "repay" meaningfully, and at this moment, the couple finally resumed their normal communication mode.
There is no need to pretend that they are unfamiliar with each other anymore, and even matters between men and women can be said so directly and explicitly.
Lin Huowang laughed heartily after hearing this, and said cheerfully, "Okay! Then I'll be waiting! Waiting to see our Vice President Arong achieve great things, and also waiting for her 'repayment'!"
But seriously, the two of you taking office has caused quite a stir.
Tomorrow, no, maybe tonight, the entire Hong Kong media will be in an uproar. Those newspapers will say anything to boost sales, so you and Ah Rong should be mentally prepared.
By then, the newspapers will undoubtedly be pessimistic about you, thinking you're just pretty faces, and that under the leadership of you two beauties, Asia Television will surely not last long and will go bankrupt and cease broadcasting."
Liu Rumeng picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said nonchalantly, "Let them talk. Arong and I don't care about these false reputations. If you want to laugh, go ahead and laugh. Let's see who will become the laughing stock in the end."
"And, Awang, this flagship program you've planned is so well-conceived and meaningful. It's exactly what I've always wanted to do and what I can do well. Don't worry, with Arong and I here, Asia Television's first hit will surely resound throughout Hong Kong Island!"
Lin Huowang looked at the familiar light in his wife's eyes, as if he saw again the stubborn and tough girl in the snowy Northeast.
He was also relieved. He raised his teacup and said, "Alright! Then I'll wait to hear your cannon fire! I'll use tea instead of wine. I wish you success!"
The next morning, just as Lin Huowang had expected, the newsstands in Hong Kong Island were completely dominated by news about "Asia Television's first major move after the change of ownership."
However, it was almost all filled with harsh sarcasm and malicious speculation.
The headline on the front page of Oriental Daily News was bold and eye-catching: "Miss Hong Kong rules Taiwan? Asia Television has given up on itself!"
Yesterday, Asia Television (ATV) staged a shocking farce! New owner Kobayashi Tenmo unexpectedly appointed his rumored girlfriend, 19-year-old Miss Hong Kong runner-up Liu Rumeng, as General Manager, and Lu Ruirong, a former Miss Hong Kong runner-up with whom he had an ambiguous relationship, as Deputy General Manager!
On their first day, the two beauties arrived, and a swift and decisive purge unfolded! Reportedly, several senior mid-level managers were fired on the spot, while numerous junior staff were promoted, and everyone received a 20% pay raise! However, is using beauty to win people's hearts the right management style? By appointing an inexperienced Miss Hong Kong to run a station with hundreds of employees, what does Kobayashi Tenmo put the future of ATV in? Could it be that she's been blinded by beauty, treating the television empire like a joke? Asia Television is in danger! It's become a laughing stock!
The entertainment section of Sing Tao Daily headlined, "Are ATVs Becoming a 'Beauty Cemetery' for Beauties Liu Rumeng and Lü Ruirong?"
"Kobayashi Tenmo's philandering tactics reappear! To win a beautiful woman's smile, he even used the battered Asia Television as a 'training ground' and 'greeting gift', handing it over to two Miss Hong Kong pageants with whom he had close ties!
In Liu Rumeng's debut, although she used thundering means to purge dissidents, promote confidants, and even throw out "salary increase sugar bombs", she seemed to be very powerful.
However, the television industry is a complex business that cannot be mastered with just looks and ruthlessness.
Lu Ruirong is even more immature, recording the entire process like an assistant. With two beautiful women in charge, the future of ATV is bleak.
The industry was in uproar, with everyone saying Kobayashi Tenmochi had made a blunder of blunders, earning him undeserved fame! Could ATV become the lavish graveyard where these two beauties buried their dreams of television?
There are also some excessive gossip tabloids that, under the guise of news gimmicks, use great lengths to describe the sexual affairs between Kobayashi Tianwang and two women, Liu Rumeng and Lu Ruirong.
They even made up such absurd details as Lv Ruirong was dissatisfied with being only the deputy general manager, and insisted on having sex with Xiao Linsheng to give her the position of general manager of the Jardine Matheson Group.
The financial edition of Ming Pao is relatively "mild", but the words are also full of doubts.
Kobayashi Tenmo's 'New Beauty' Strategy: Radical Restructuring of Asia Television Causes Concerns
The article begins by praising Liu Rumeng for "displaying remarkable courage and skill," but then takes a sharp turn at the end, writing, "However, television production is no joke; it is a highly specialized and systematic undertaking. While Ms. Liu and Ms. Lu possess considerable talent, their foundation and experience are limited. Suddenly thrust into global control, can their expertise sustain ATV's complex transformation and intense competition?"
Large-scale purges and extraordinary promotions may have temporary effects, but will they shake ATV's already fragile foundation? This airborne "beauty new policy" carries enormous risks and an uncertain future.
Is Mr. Kobayashi Tenno's hiring a result of discerning talent and taking an unconventional approach? Or is it, as some outsiders claim, simply impulsive? It remains to be seen, but it's a cause for deep concern.
The left-wing newspapers, on the other hand, kept silent about the incident and did not report the news of the two women suddenly appearing on Asia Television.
After all, at the Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong branch, Director Liang Weilin asked Guo Linxian with a mixture of excitement and resignation: "Comrade Linxian! Your daughter has become the general manager of a television station. This can truly be considered an unprecedented victory for us in the Hong Kong public opinion arena!"
Guo Linxian smiled and waved her hands, saying, "President Liang, my daughter told us yesterday that this is just a name. Xiao Linsheng is such a shrewd person, how could he leave the fate of a TV station to our Mengmeng?"
Hearing this, Liang Weilin nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's right! But it would be great to have a title. Next time we have time, let's go to Asia Television and pay it a visit. I will also apply to the mainland to transfer some of the mainland's wonderful TV programs and news to be broadcast on Asia Television.
