Chapter 253: Riding a Tiger
After the call was connected, it was Mr. Yang's assistant on the other end. It was unknown what the other party said to Xu Yingying, and Xu Yingying hung up the phone with a smile on her face.
Han Wenya asked anxiously: "How is it, what did the other party say?"
"The other party assured us that we had provided them with all the information and they would be responsible for the follow-up matters and would help us clear our name. Mr. Yang is currently communicating with the person in charge of Weibo." Xu Yingying looked down upon Han Wenya's excitement:
"What are you so anxious about? This is how things are. You have to release information bit by bit to slap someone in the face. It's just a tug-of-war. With Boss Yang here, there's nothing to worry about."
Han Wenya doesn't think so:
"Director Wang and Qin Buju are not easy to mess with. We have touched their interests and people, so how could they not think of ways to retaliate? What if the person in charge of Weibo sees that Director Wang and Qin Buju offer higher interests and changes his mind?"
Xu Yingying smiled: "That's because you don't know why Mr. Fan, the person in charge of Weibo, has a good relationship with Mr. Yang. He has been pursuing Mr. Yang's sister for a long time. With Mr. Yang's sister hanging around, Mr. Fan won't change his mind easily. Could it be that Director Wang and Mr. Qin can come up with a woman to make Mr. Fan change his mind?"
But Han Wenya felt that human heart was the most difficult thing to describe. If you think one way today, you might think the same thing tomorrow:
"What if he really changes his mind?"
"That's impossible. It's been several years. Every time Miss Yang comes forward, Mr. Fan always does what she wants. Besides, Miss Yang doesn't have a boyfriend yet. Mr. Fan will not give up if he has hope."
Xu Yingying didn't think that Fan Rui would go back on his word. If he wanted to give up, he would have done so long ago. He had persisted for so long and paid so much, how could he give up so easily?
In fact, Fan Rui was feeling restless at the moment. He had finally invited Yang Xi to dinner. This was a great opportunity to develop feelings. He was planning to mention to Yang Xi in the evening how he had helped her brother so that he could take credit in front of his sweetheart.
As a result, his grandfather suddenly did this, which put him in a very passive position. If he changed his words now, he would definitely offend Yang Wei. If he didn't change his words, his grandfather would be unhappy. It didn't seem like his grandfather was joking.
On the surface, he is the person in charge of Weibo, but it is not impossible for him to step down, and he cannot ignore his grandfather's thoughts.
Fan Rui was so worried that he almost burst into tears, and his resentment towards Qin Buju was so full that it almost overflowed.
After thinking it over, he finally decided to postpone it until after he had dinner with Yang Xi in the evening. At worst, he could put on an act and express his embarrassment so that Yang Xi would accept his feelings, and at the same time force the other party to take a step back and stop making things difficult for Qin Buzhu's wife.
Fan Rui had good ideas, but the reality was not what he thought. He first received a call from Zou Lianxun. After a few polite words, the other party asked him with a clear purpose how much he would pay to clear Shi Feiye's name.
He tried to bluff by hesitating, but the other party didn't give him any chance to hesitate. In the end, the other party got tired of his beating around the bush and simply hung up the phone.
Before he could call back, the secretary said that Yang Wei came to see him.
On one side is the person he doesn't want to offend, and on the other side is his future brother-in-law. Fan Rui hesitated for a moment and decided to please his future brother-in-law. Money can be earned again, but if the person you like flies away, you don't know when you will meet the person you like next time.
As soon as Yang Wei came in, he acted like a good brother. He talked about what he had been busy with today, and then talked about the fact that the Zou family had taken away a lot of resources recently. By the way, he also complained about his father praising Qin Buju in front of him:
"He thinks everyone is like Qin Buzhu, holding all the power and being able to do whatever they want? The old man of the Qin family handed over the entire Qin family to Qin Buzhu when Qin Buzhu was in his early twenties. He still holds the power of our Yang family. Even if I want to study holographic online games like Qin Buzhu, I need that power and capital."
Yang Wei couldn't hide his frustration:
"He keeps saying useless things all day long and complains that I don't do my job well. I don't have the heart to refute him for fear of making him angry. He is still not satisfied at all. But in the end, it's all Qin Buju's fault. If it weren't for Qin Buju, I wouldn't have wasted my game. I used to think that Ji Fusheng was quite capable in making Qin Buju suffer such a big loss, but now it seems that Qin Buju is just trying to sort out his own business and get rid of the burden of the Qin family."
So you just don't want to admit that Qin Buzhu is better than you.
Why don't you say that Qin Buzhu is so young and can take over the Qin Corporation because of his own ability, and your father is not confident in handing it over to you, isn't it because you make him unable to trust you? Besides, he can find a way to gather people to research holographic online games, and he can also find a way to get funds, so why can't you?
Fan Rui complained in his heart that Yang Wei was really not a good person. If it weren't for Yang Xi, he wouldn't want to have so much dealings with him.
Fan Rui has been taught by Grandpa Fan, and his three basic outlooks are relatively positive. According to Grandpa Fan, a person can be clearly bad, but cannot be confused and do bad things. He can admit that he is doing bad things and has no conscience, but he cannot do bad things and think that he is doing good things.
Yang Wei said so much just to make Fan Rui share the same hatred with him. As he was talking, he mentioned the incident of slandering Han Wenya on Weibo again.
Fan Rui hadn't had time to check Weibo yet, so he didn't understand how the situation had developed. He also didn't know that the crew had already released evidence, making Han Wenya the unlucky guy.
But he didn't want to do anything right now, so he thought about it and fooled Yang Wei:
"We absolutely cannot move now. If we refute them as soon as they make a move, it will seem like we did it on purpose. Besides, we should wait a while and let the matter escalate a little before we make a move. This way, the reversal will be more attractive and more convincing."
This was not Yang Wei's first day in the entertainment industry, so he didn't believe his words at all and made a lot of euphemistic remarks, implying that it would be better to resolve the issue as soon as possible.
But Fan Rui is not stupid. He has his own plans. How could he be led by Yang Wei? Even when Yang Wei mentioned Yang Xi, he just laughed it off.
The two people argued for nearly an hour, but in the end Yang Wei failed to achieve his goal.
Everyone has a lot of things to do, and it's impossible for them to get entangled in such a matter. Yang Wei has a meeting later, and thinking that Fan Rui might not take action until he sees the rabbit, he decides not to say anything for the time being. It won't be a big deal to wait a while, so he plans to let his sister solve the problem in the evening.
He rarely looked up to Fan Rui. In the past, Fan Rui almost always responded to his requests, but now he has become smarter and seems to have grown up with brains.
But I still felt alert in my heart, thinking that this guy is not as easy to fool as before. I have to tell my sister not to keep him hanging for too long. If she plans to agree to something, she should agree to it if she can, so as to avoid losing everything in the end.
After Yang Wei left, Fan Rui curled his lips. He then had time to open his Weibo and take a look. Then he called his secretary over and asked the person in charge to come over and report the data.
Seeing Han Wenya being slandered like this, Fan Rui was a little speechless. In fact, Yang Wei really made it difficult for him. The other party had so much evidence and the pace was also good. Unless this side could present sufficient evidence, it would be really difficult to deal with it.
It is not impossible to use tough measures such as forcibly tampering with data and blocking keywords to prevent netizens from posting their comments, but in that case, Weibo itself will be the one to take the blame.
If a platform loses its credibility, it is fine when there is no alternative, but once there is an alternative, it will inevitably face the problem of customer loss. It is not that he cannot do it, but why should he take such a big risk for Yang Wei's matter?
But we still need to make preparations for both situations.
Fan Rui asked his subordinates to prepare evidence quickly. If they really planned to fight to the end with Qin Buju, they would have to have something to clear Han Wenya. There was no need to worry about Shi Feiye, as she had already been cleared.
The person in charge who listened to Fan Rui's instructions was a little worried:
"Mr. Fan, if we whitewash Han Wenya like this, won't it be easy to offend the Zou family? We are just a platform. In the past, we would help whoever paid the price. No matter how fierce the fight between the Zou and Yang families is, it has nothing to do with us. This is the tacit rule. Moreover, we agreed not to involve each other's families. Now if we get involved, it will not benefit us and it is not worth it."
The person in charge was the one chosen by Mr. Fan to help Fan Rui. He spoke bluntly and his meaning was very clear. He said that if you do business, you should behave like a business and you should not do things that have no benefits.
Before, they could give the Yang family some benefits, just as an investment for marrying their daughter, but they were directly confronting each other like today, which was just asking for trouble! No matter how fiercely the Zou family and the Yang family fought before, their platform could still benefit. What was going on now?
The person in charge also reminded Fan Rui:
"Boss Yang has checked our data eight times. He said he would settle the bill last month, but he hasn't sent anyone to come yet."
How could Fan Rui not know? But he had been chasing Yang Xi for so long and had invested so much. If he gave up at this time, others would only say that he was incompetent, and he would really become a joke.
He gritted his teeth and insisted: "I have my own ideas, you don't have to worry so much, go down first, and wait until night to see."
He had said everything that needed to be said, and the person in charge couldn't make the decision for him. He thought Fan Rui knew what was going on, and he had also made suggestions according to the old man's wishes. He felt that he had shown enough goodwill, so he didn't say anything more.
After typing a chapter of the novel, Shi Feiye picked up his phone to check Weibo. He hadn't seen any movement from Han Wenya, which was a bit strange. Could it be that the other party just wanted to do something to become famous?
But what's the point of doing something that only brings shame upon oneself?
Or maybe it's just that the time has not come yet and we have to wait before fighting back?
Anyway, Shi Feiye didn't believe that Han Wenya would admit defeat so quickly.
