[Definitely. Just look at the stock market today, the stock prices of Gu Group's and Chu Group's have skyrocketed so ridiculously, it makes me envious.]
[As expected of President Chu and President Gu, two influential figures, they completely outmaneuvered everyone else.]
To be honest, after seeing so many unfavorable news about the Chu Group and Gu Group, many people thought that the two major groups were going to run into trouble and were preparing to flee.
The situation has now completely reversed, leaving many investors who sold their shares in both companies in deep regret.
Meng Fuyu had just arrived at the company, also saw the various discussions online.
Meng Fuyu's expression grew increasingly grim.
He put away his phone, ignored the online comments, turned around and got out of the car, and gave instructions to his assistant.
"Please find the contact information for the editor-in-chief of Luhua News Agency and send it to my phone."
Assistant: "Yes."
Half an hour later, Meng Fuyu returned to his office after a brief company meeting and received the contact information of Luhua News Agency, on his phone from his assistant.
Luhua News Agency is currently one of the leading traditional media newspapers in the country.
Even though its traffic and popularity can no longer compare with new media websites like Weibo, its position in the media industry remains very stable.
Meng Fuyu quickly called Luhua News Agency.
" Editor-in-Chief Song, I'd like to discuss a collaboration with you."
Editor-in-Chief Song paused for two seconds upon hearing this before asking, "Who are you?"
"I am Meng Fuyu."
Editor-in-Chief Song's expression immediately changed, becoming much more friendly. "So it's Young Master Meng. You suddenly called me; is there some major collaboration?"
Meng Fuyu laughed and said, " Editor-in-Chief Song should have already heard about the news of the Gu-Chu marriage that's been circulating so widely online."
Editor-in-Chief Song: "Of course."
Meng Fuyu's eyes darkened. "The main reason I'm making this call is to spill some broth about Gu Jinhuai's ex-girlfriend."
Editor-in-Chief Song immediately composed himself, smiling warily. " Young Master Meng, we're just a small media website. I wouldn't dare get involved in your capitalist games."
Meng Fuyu didn't beat around the bush any longer. "I can tell you directly. Right now, no one in the entire Beijing elite circle wants the Gu and Chu families to get married so easily. So if you don't cooperate with me today, then I will automatically consider you an enemy on the side of the Gu and Chu families. Editor-in-Chief Song, you'd better make a careful choice."
The threatening meaning of these words was self-evident, leaving Editor-in-Chief Song in a dilemma.
He knew that what Meng Fuyu said was indeed true.
The Gu and Chu families were already very powerful. If they were to successfully form a marriage alliance this time, these two would dominate the Beijing social circle, which would naturally be intolerable to other wealthy families.
The threatened Editor-in-Chief Song's face twitched.
I should have known he wouldn't have answered that call.
However, Meng Fuyu's threats forced Editor-in-Chief Song to choose sides.
Finally, Editor-in-Chief Song could only grit his teeth and agree, "Okay, but I can only work with you this once."
Having achieved his goal, Meng Fuyu smiled slightly, " Editor-in-Chief Song is indeed straightforward."
Before long, all employees of Luhua News Agency received overtime notices.
"What's going on? We rarely work overtime," the employee asked, puzzled.
"It seems like someone higher up has discovered a new, major bombshell."
Not long after, these employees received the press release containing the whistleblower information from above.
It turns out it's related to Gu Jinhuai's ex-girlfriend.
Chapter 74
Gu Jinhuai previously revealed his ex-girlfriend's situation during a live broadcast on a variety show, which many netizens witnessed firsthand.
Therefore, many people already know that Gu Jinhuai had a former girlfriend he had loved deeply for many years.
The employees of Luhua News Agency had naturally heard about it beforehand, and were quite surprised when they saw the revelations related to Gu Jinhuai's ex-girlfriend.
Some people couldn't help but whisper among themselves, "Is this news really true?"
"It should be true, right? It was directly issued from above."
"Oh? Then President Gu really..."
The editor-in-chief walked over with a cold face. "Nothing to do, huh? Go back to your own work."
The employees quickly scattered.
The editor-in-chief sat down at his workstation with a blank expression and began personally designing today's headline section.
News Headline: [ Gu Jinhuai's Deep Love for His Ex-Girlfriend from Years Ago Remains a Mystery; Chu Yu Suspected of Being a Third Party in Their Relationship?!]
At the same time, many other well-known media websites were also working overtime to finish press releases.
Just as Meng Fuyu had threatened Editor-in-Chief Song before, there are currently many people keeping an eye on the Gu Family and Chu Family.
Normally, everyone is very polite and respectful on the surface, but that's only because the balance among the wealthy families in Beijing is still being maintained. Any slight move by any party could easily cause significant changes.
Therefore, naturally no one would casually break off relations.
But now the news of Gu and Chu's sudden marriage has directly shattered this superficial balance.
Then other wealthy families will naturally stop maintaining a facade of smiles.
This morning alone, more than half of the media websites received various breaking news reports related to Gu Jinhuai's ex-girlfriend.
Clearly, these revelations are all directed at the Gu and Chu families, two powerful clans.
It was afternoon.
The news of Gu Jinhuai and Chu Yu's engagement has spread widely, and almost the entire internet is shocked and sending their blessings.
Wen Zhixin leaned nervously against the sofa, talking on the phone with Meng Fuyu.
"Honey, I've got everything sorted out on this side. The Luhua News Agency will release Gu Jinhuai ex-girlfriend's revelations first, and when the time is right, other media outlets I've contacted will release similar stories one after another. Once the public outcry is high, Gu Jinhuai and Chu Yu can forget about getting married."
