The reporter's words were like pouring a spoonful of water into a hot oil pan, and the press conference scene instantly became boiling.
Cao Bo's face looked grim, and several reporters were shocked.
It looks like you've been hit in a sore spot?
It seems that this is really happening!
"Mr. Cao, is this true?"
"Xu Mei cheated on you while you were engaged?!"
"Mr. Cao, please say a few words——"
"Mr. Cao..."
Seven or eight microphones were put in front of Cao Bo, and several reporters blocked Cao Bo's way.
No one cares whether "The Crown of Thorns" starts filming or not.
The show's lead actors were both quite popular, yet the reporters ignored them, focusing solely on the "old feud" between Cao Bo and Xu Mei. Filming hadn't even begun yet, and the lead actors were already feeling unhappy. They relied on their professionalism to maintain polite smiles, looking at Cao Bo with an understanding gaze, as if they understood his current predicament.
In the audience, Mr. Guan and Zhao Dong sat next to each other, and Mr. Guan did not forget to ask Zhao Dong for a favor.
"Boss Zhao, I've put up this stage with so much effort, and I'm giving it all to you today!"
Zhao Dong just found it funny.
Cao Bo felt resentful because Xu Mei broke off the engagement, so he was instigated by himself.
Similarly, when Xu Mei terminated her contract and switched jobs, Mr. Guan was so angry that he came to the door and said he wanted to teach Xu Mei a lesson. Only then did Mr. Guan readily agree to hold the press conference for the start of filming of "Crown of Thorns" in advance.
In addition to taking revenge on Xu Mei, Guan Zong was also willing to make some big noise at the launch conference of "Crown of Thorns" to warm up the show -
"Thank you, Mr. Guan, for your help!"
Zhao Dong was secretly dissatisfied, but his expression was full of gratitude.
Mr. Guan looked at Cao Bo, who was surrounded by reporters on the podium, with a gleam in his eyes. "Mr. Zhao must have put a lot of thought into getting Mr. Cao to admit he was cuckolded!"
His words and deeds seemed to indicate that he wanted to know what benefits Zhao Dong had given to Cao Bo.
How could Zhao Dong say that? What if Guan shamelessly asked him for a "thank you gift" after he said it?
Zhao Dong stood up from his seat and raised his phone, "Boss Guan, I'm sorry, I have to excuse myself for a moment."
Mr. Guan smiled broadly and said, "You are busy. I understand."
Zhao Dong walked a few steps to the entrance of the venue, called Xie Jinghu, and reported the progress to him.
"Things are going pretty well."
"Of course he disagreed at first, and it took me some time to convince him."
"Yes, we're at the press conference right now. In front of all these media reporters, Cao just needs to follow the script I gave him. I'll find some online influencers to help with the rhythm, and it will definitely work..."
After all, this is not his territory, so Zhao Dong spoke very cautiously, and he vaguely mentioned the words "I can definitely stop the broadcast of "Lane People".
Even so, Xie Jinghu on the other end of the phone was already very happy.
Today, there was a particularly tactless executive in the company who took the popularity of "Lane People" as an achievement of Xie Qian after he took over Jiaxin and praised him profusely.
The saying "a tiger father will have a dog son" made Xie Jinghu very unhappy.
Facing outsiders, Xie Jinghu could not directly express his disgust for his own son Xie Qian, nor could he propose a gambling agreement. He was almost suffocating.
After receiving Zhao Dong's firm assurance that "Lane People" would be discontinued soon, Xie Jinghu's depression was swept away.
Xie Jinghu was about to offer some encouragement to Zhao Dong when Cao Bo, surrounded by reporters, found himself on the podium, unable to retreat. The reporter from the portal website even thrust the microphone close to Cao Bo's lips and asked the same question again:
"Mr. Cao, tell me about Xu Mei's affair. I heard that the man was a big shot in the industry. It was thanks to that big shot that Xu Mei got the opportunity to star in the new drama of the romance queen."
Cao Bo glanced at the audience.
Mr. Guan leaned forward slightly with an excited look on his face.
Anyway, it’s not Guan who bears the reputation of “green-headed turtle”, so Guan can use this to vent his anger. No wonder he is so excited.
Looking at the door again, Zhao Dong seemed to be making a phone call.
Who are you calling?
Zhao Dong is also an errand boy, and some people above him want to use Xu Mei as a breakthrough point to deal with Jiaxin Film and Television Company.
In addition to a cash reward, Zhao Dong also promised to introduce Cao Bo to other people so that Cao Bo could move up the social ladder.
So what if you are laughed at as a green-headed turtle? You have real benefits. Are you still afraid that no woman will take the initiative to throw herself into your arms?
This string of thoughts quickly flashed through Cao Bo's mind.
He is really moved!
He really reached an agreement with Zhao Dong!
However, for some reason, at this critical moment, Cao Bo's hand was not controlled by his brain, and he pushed the microphone that was against his mouth away with force.
The next second, his mouth disregarded his brain's command and he started cursing at the reporter from the portal website:
"What about cheating, cheating, and unspoken rules? You're hiding under someone's bed every fucking day, and you know so much about it?"
The portal reporter was stunned by the scolding.
Why is this different from the agreed script? How should we perform next?
The other reporters were also dumbfounded.
From what Cao Bo said, Xu Mei didn't cheat or have any hidden rules?!
The portal reporter was not giving up. "Mr. Cao, you are so gentlemanly, but people may not appreciate it——"
——I will lead you to numb your feelings!
Cao Bo responded to the portal reporter with his hard fist.
Cao Bo punched the reporter!
When the other reporters came to their senses, they pressed the shutter button to take pictures.
The heroine, who had just felt unhappy that her limelight had been stolen, now looked Cao Bo in the eye.
I've heard for a long time that Cao Bo is a playboy and likes to target people in his circle.
I didn't expect that although this guy is a playboy, he is quite nice to his exes.
