Chapter 151 A Thunderclap in Silence



On April 28, 1998, "My Fair Princess" premiered on Hunan TV.

Thanks to the generous investment from Star Entertainment, the series was released six months earlier than in its previous life.

Liu Feng overruled all objections.

It secured the prime viewing time of the May Day Golden Week, directly competing with numerous other popular programs.

The day of its premiere.

Huanzhu was like a refreshing spring breeze that swept across the land of China, creating an unprecedented viewing frenzy and becoming an eternal classic in the hearts of countless people.

At the same time, while excellent works such as "The Storm Riders", "Who Am I" and "The Lucky Guy" were brilliant, they could not overshadow the dazzling brilliance of "My Fair Princess".

None of them can match the popularity and influence of "My Fair Princess".

Since its premiere in 1998.

Princess Pearl quickly achieved astonishing ratings, becoming the top-rated TV drama in mainland China at the time.

It set a new record in the history of television dramas.

The drama not only achieved great success in mainland China, but also caused a sensation in Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

The spicy strips from the Imperial Kitchen brand subsequently became incredibly popular.

Supply cannot meet demand.

An advertising slogan reads: "Produced by Yushanfang, using carefully selected natural ingredients and traditional secret recipes, this product is green and healthy, allowing you to share the taste of nature."

It spread throughout the country.

If you want spicy snacks, buy Yushanfang Spicy Snacks.

As a result, the Royal Kitchen Spicy Strips sold out as soon as they hit the shelves, while other brands of spicy strips received little attention.

In a short time.

Eating spicy strips from the Imperial Kitchen has become a new trend.

Spicy strips, praised by characters like Xiao Yanzi, Ziwei, and Wu Age, have become incredibly popular.

Unrivaled in popularity.

at the same time.

The spicy strips from the Imperial Kitchen have garnered nationwide attention.

First, a Southern Weekly report stated that "Yushanfang spicy strips are very popular among white-collar workers in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan!"

Subsequently, various media outlets rushed to report on the story.

"So the Imperial Kitchen is actually a mainland brand!"

"In Hubei Province, the Imperial Kitchen Food Factory is just a branch factory!"

Where is the main imperial kitchen located?

"The Imperial Kitchen's main factory has already been shut down!"

"The main imperial kitchen is located in Xianshan!"

"..."

With the continued popularity of "My Fair Princess", discussions about the Imperial Kitchen have increased.

When people learned that such a famous star enterprise was located in a small county town...

However.

Even more unexpectedly, the main factory of Yushanfang Spicy Strips, which sells well all over the country, was investigated and shut down long ago!

What exactly happened?

Like cats that have smelled blood, various media outlets rushed to Xianshan County.

To find out more, we need to obtain firsthand news information.

On the day "My Fair Princess" premiered in mainland China, some people from Xianshan County and the city...

I already sensed that something terrible was about to happen!

They immediately rushed to Zhang Kaitai's hometown in Hubei Province, but did not find him.

At this time, Zhang Kaitai was in Hong Kong.

While city leaders were still pondering remedial measures, the media had already gathered at the entrance of the Imperial Kitchen.

Before.

Hundreds of unemployed people rushed to the scene upon hearing the news, pouring out their grievances, seeking redress, and pleading for help from the media.

They had a wife, children, and elderly parents to support, and they originally had an enviable job.

But it was ruined by a group of people!

The county and city governments have made promises time and again, but these promises have not been kept.

now.

They were assigned here to produce generic spicy snacks in a makeshift shed opposite the imperial kitchen.

The wages I received were only half of what I used to earn at the Imperial Kitchen factory, and the working conditions and food were extremely poor.

Accommodation is not provided.

In terms of environment, hygiene, fire protection, and safety, it cannot compare with the Imperial Kitchen, yet no department comes to inspect it.

Clearly double standards.

Let's look at it again.

Next to the greenhouse, a factory is under construction. It is a large spicy snack factory that the county and city governments, together with several private workshops, want to establish.

Currently, construction is halfway complete and faces the risk of being halted.

The reason is that with the popularity of the Imperial Kitchen brand, other off-brand spicy snacks simply cannot be sold.

The money guaranteed by the city from the bank is likely to be invested and won't be recouped. To minimize losses, construction of the factory has been halted.

The person who initially offered advice was banished to a township by city leaders in a fit of anger.

After all the information was collected by various media outlets.

The next day.

The news about Xianshan County became an instant sensation across the country, much like the TV series "Princess Pearl".

One explosive news story after another is being released:

"Why can't such a large factory survive in rural towns?"

"The wages and benefits of township and village enterprises are catching up with those in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou!"

Who is hindering local economic development?

"The current situation of resettlement for hundreds of unemployed workers."

"The most frugal law enforcement agency in the country in 1998!"

“…”

Reporters and media continued their in-depth investigations, surrounding the county and city authorities, but no one dared to come forward and respond.

The next day, the incident was featured on the national news program, CCTV Evening News.

With the intervention of the provincial government, county and city leaders and a number of other personnel were forced to step down.

Zhang Kaitai was summoned to the provincial capital.

After he returned.

When the Yushanfang Food Factory in Xianshan County opened its doors, all the laid-off employees returned automatically, without missing a single one.

opposite.

The half-built factory and the makeshift spicy snack workshop shed were deserted and became the biggest joke in the eyes of the people!

Since the Yushanfang Food Factory was shut down and reopened, Zhang Kaitai has not uttered a single word.

This silent action dealt a heavy blow to corrupt officials.

Knock him off the high platform...
