Chapter 143: Evidence
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The event location of the news conference was silent. All the reporters looked at each other and felt that the development of the matter seemed to have exceeded their expectations.
With so many thugs surrounding Luo Chen, it was already a miracle that he could come back alive!
Under such circumstances, not to mention that Luo Chen did not kill anyone, even if a few of the thugs were killed because their skills were inferior, they could be considered to have brought it upon themselves.
No matter how one looked at it, Luo Chen’s actions deserved to be called self-defense!
“I was in that car last night. The daughter of the Shen family, Shen Shuyi, was with me. She can also prove it for Luo Chen.
If anyone suspects that this video has any traces of being processed, you can come to me to ask for a copy to review.
Someone is clearly trying to twist the facts and magnify this matter. We reserve the right to pursue the matter.”
…..
Zhao Ruoshuang stood up and said word by word.
The determination in her eyes was exceptionally obvious.
For a moment, no reporters dared to look at her.
The video was still playing, and Luo Chen’s figure was getting clearer.
At the last part, there were even people who could not help but exclaim softly.
Luo Chen, on the other hand, sat on the chair with a straight face, as if none of this had happened to him.
That unfathomable look was indeed eye-catching.
“So, does it count as self-defense?”
When the video finished playing and he opened his mouth, Luo Chen asked the middle-aged man who had come to question him with a smile.
The middle-aged man opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say a word. He dejectedly took his equipment and returned to his seat.
“Our company has already stored the video file. Just as President Zhao said, anyone who doubts the authenticity of the video can verify it at will.”
Luo Chen placed his hands on the table and said unhurriedly.
In fact, these words were meant for the netizens who were watching the live-stream. Reporters were in this line of work, so they could naturally tell if the video file had been processed.
Of course, they wouldn’t have the guts to take the video file and claim that it’s edited.
Zhao Ruoshuang’s plan was to prevent anyone from using such despicable methods.
The entire conference room fell silent. All the reporters did not even dare to breathe loudly.
“If there’s nothing else, the press conference will end here. Please leave.”
After waiting for a while and confirming that no one had raised any objections, Luo Chen sat back down easily.
Generally speaking, reporters would not let go of press conferences like this to clarify a scandal.
However, Luo Chen had already thrown the evidence in their face. If they continued to question him, they would only be asking for humiliation.
The first batch of reporters who were closer to the door had already left silently. Not long after, only two or three reporters with good reputations in the industry were left.
“Is there anything else?”
Luo Chen raised his eyebrows and asked indifferently.
“Regarding the Jiang City Chamber of Commerce, we want to do a special interview. I wonder if President Luo is interested?”
The reporter from Xinyu Culture was the first to approach him with a smile on his face. He even took the initiative to hand Luo Chen a business card.
Xinyu Culture was a famous media company in Jiang City. Their company had already existed when the newspapers were still popular. Moreover, the CEO had a unique vision and was the first media company to complete the transformation.
Now, they mainly focus on online news. Due to the authenticity and professionalism of the report, they had accumulated many fans.
“Alright, I’ll get you to interview me when I’m free.”
Luo Chen smiled and said perfunctorily.
In fact, to Luo Chen, the more low-profile he was, the better. As the saying went, one should make a fortune in silence. If he really spread the news that the Chamber of Commerce was about to be established in Jiang City, it would only have the opposite effect.
“Then… tomorrow?”
The reporter asked carefully.
Luo Chen was speechless and could only shake his head in rejection.
“When I have time. Look at today’s farce. I don’t know how long it will take to eliminate the negative stars (rating) this time.”
Seeing that the other media who stayed behind were also eager to try, Luo Chen hurriedly waved his hand and defended himself.
Although the reporters who were left behind looked disappointed, Luo Chen had already said so much. If they continued to pester him, it would probably have the opposite effect.
The reporters turned around and left. In the huge conference room, Luo Chen was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he carefully flipped through the documents that Zhao Ruoshuang had brought back with the video.
“How lucky. The quality of the surveillance cameras in the car I found isn’t good. If I had gone a little later, the video would have been automatically deleted.”
Zhao Ruoshuang finally relaxed and said with a smile.
“That’s why I’ve always felt that I was quite lucky.”
Luo Chen smiled without raising his head.
“Let’s get down to business. I’ve recently received a pretty good script. Are you interested in producing a movie capable of occupying the New Year movie rankings?”
Zhao Ruoshuang changed the topic.
Although this matter had happened so suddenly that it almost had irreparable consequences for the company, now that it had been resolved, there was no need to worry too much.
Only by making the company develop better and better could it stand tall and not fall. Everything else was useless.
“Sure, but I think it’s better to use new actors.”
Luo Chen finally raised his head and said something.
Suddenly, he remembered the plot of the original novel.
The script that Zhao Ruoshuang mentioned this time would definitely be a hit. Moreover, because they were using new actors, the contracts were signed very smoothly and the costs were not very high.
In the end, after the movie became a huge hit, the value of those actors also rose.
In the blink of an eye, the value of the contracts in Luo Chen’s hands would increase by more than a hundred times!
It was impossible for Luo Chen to reject such a good deal!
“Isn’t it a little too risky to get new actors?”
After careful consideration, Zhao Ruoshuang hesitated and voiced her thoughts.
“It’s not risky. The investment in using famous actors in the early stages is too high. Moreover, the newcomers might… Let me see the script first.”
Halfway through his sentence, Luo Chen stiffly changed the topic.
He almost let it slip!
“Alright.”
Zhao Ruoshuang vaguely felt that Luo Chen’s condition had been a little different recently.
Although she was puzzled, Zhao Ruoshuang still sent the script to Luo Chen’s email.
Opening the document, Luo Chen snapped his fingers!
‘That’s right!’
This was the script that was written in the original novel!
