Izvestia was founded in 1917.
It is a daily newspaper that publishes news on politics, economics, culture, and other topics.
Arguments and Facts, founded in January 1978, is a weekly newspaper reflecting social and political life.
The reports from these two authoritative Russian newspapers certainly attracted a lot of public attention.
Furthermore, both newspapers wield significant influence in public opinion.
This time, two authoritative newspapers simultaneously reported on the situation of East Asia Bank.
Chen Dong had read the newspaper, and for several days in a row, all the articles about Dongya Bank were positive.
From the inception of East Asia Bank to the various services it provides and the initiatives it launches.
Without exception, they all praised East Asia Bank's innovation.
Praise was overflowing from his words.
Chen Dong could also tell that the editors of these two newspapers genuinely believed in the Bank of East Asia.
This approach by the newspaper directly boosted the reputation of East Asia Bank.
However, this is only the most superficial aspect.
Chen Dong was well aware of the double-edged sword of media and public opinion. While the two major newspapers enhanced the reputation of Dongya Bank, they also brought Chen Dong a lot of trouble.
First of all, Chen Dong has always been hiding behind Sim.
If the two major newspapers continue reporting like this, they will eventually uncover Chen Dong, the mastermind behind it all.
Currently, there are no related signs, simply because the staff of the two major newspapers have not yet discovered any clues.
Once they notice that Sim has a real boss behind him?
At that point, these keen-nosed and persistent journalists will probably frantically dig into the secret boss hidden within East Asia Bank.
Secondly, the reports in the two major newspapers also brought up Western private banks and the state-owned banks of the Russian Federation, comparing them with East Asia Bank.
This move has put Dongya Bank and Chen Dong in the eye of the storm.
As the saying goes, "The nail that sticks out gets hammered down."
Chen Dong didn't want to be the first to stick his neck out; he wanted to make a fortune quietly.
As a result, the reports in the two major newspapers have touched upon Chen Dong's interests.
Finally, and most importantly.
Chen Dong knew very well that this was Russia, not China.
Here, Chen Dong is in a foreign land, and ultimately, he is still an outsider.
If the various reports anger certain forces within the Russian Federation itself, the situation could become very unfavorable.
After all, those guys are capable of murder and arson at any time.
Chen Dong is not afraid of trouble, but he won't go out of his way to cause trouble.
Thus, Chen Dong made a decisive move, having Sim, in his capacity as the president of Dongya Bank, handle the matter.
...
Inside the editor-in-chief's office of Izvestia.
"Hey, my dear friend, are you satisfied with these conditions?"
Sim spoke with a ruddy complexion.
The editor-in-chief of Izvestia sat opposite Sim.
On the table between the two men, bundles of US dollars were neatly arranged.
These US dollars, stacked layer upon layer, not only filled the editor-in-chief's office but also resembled a small mountain.
At this moment, the editor-in-chief only regrets that he didn't buy a bigger desk back then.
At this point, Sim shrugged and said, "Friends, your reports lately have caused me a lot of trouble. I don't want too much attention, and I don't want my bank to be written about all over the place."
"From now on, as long as you can guarantee that I won't see any news about East Asia Bank in the news, then all this money is yours."
At this point, Sim thought for a moment and added, "Of course, if it's the kind of news I want to see, then it can still appear."
Sim was being very polite in his words.
The editor-in-chief stared at the huge sum of money, then quickly nodded vigorously: "No problem, I can guarantee that everything will go as you wish!"
"Haha, that's good. My friend, then I won't disturb you from enjoying your after-get off work dinner."
As he spoke, Sim stood up, turned around, and left.
An hour later, Sim appeared in the office of the editor-in-chief of Argument & Fact Weekly, and used the same method to win over the editor-in-chief.
Both major newspapers simultaneously withdrew their articles for the following day, effectively shelving all news regarding East Asia Bank.
In the past, Sim would never have believed that two such large-scale newspapers could be bought off.
Now, Sim has also deeply experienced the power of capital.
at the same time!
The previous reports in the two major newspapers have thoroughly put East Asia Bank in the spotlight.
soon!
The Morgan, Rockefeller, and DuPont families took notice of this.
It's important to know that the Morgan family is a major player in the banking industry.
The Morgan family was the original architects of the Vantaa Project.
As the original architects, the Morgan family had a keen sense of opportunity.
They realized that this upstart East Asia Bank was likely to become a stumbling block to the Wanta Project.
The Morgan family quickly spread the news.
The leading figures of the three major families held a meeting.
The Morgan family proposed to kick East Asia Bank out of the picture.
The other two families agreed with this.
In a short time, the three families reached a tacit understanding.
They do not allow potential competitors like East Asia Bank to exist.
Moreover, East Asia Bank's development momentum is so fast these days, it's almost as if it were divinely aided.
