Volume 2 Commodity Society Chapter 246 Secrets

Things are better than expected. After Long's statement was broadcast, all major media outlets took active action to actively cooperate with the Los Angeles government's action to quell the chaos. Not far from the federal government building, CBS TV station was the first to drive the announcer truck over and broadcast Long's words on a loudspeaker. Subsequently, the city government also temporarily organized a number of broadcast vehicles to drive to the federal government building, and gave speeches in various forms to let these fans who participated in the chaos know for the first time.

The vast majority of fans, after confirming Long's speech and knowing that Long had been released by the FBI and was safe, calmed down and began to disperse. And those policemen, of course, were not embarrassed by these fans who took the initiative to disperse at this time, and let them leave one after another.

Of course, there are a few people, they are fans of Long, yes, but they are also thieves, robbers, ruffians and villains, they learned that Long had been released, and advised them to disperse, but they did not all listen to the persuasion to disperse, some people with brains know that the general trend has gone, and they will accept it as much as possible, after all, this time they are fishing in troubled waters, and they have already gained something, but there are also greedy people who are brainless, and after tasting the sweetness, they did not recognize the shape of shì, trying to make persistent efforts to make another profit.

Soon, in less than half an hour, the nearly 100,000 fans who had gathered in front of the federal government building had basically dispersed, leaving only confetti, bricks, glass shards, and all kinds of garbage all over the ground. Only a handful of the hundred-odd remainder remain in the federal government building, unwilling to hand over what was looted this time, or to try to make another profit.

Of course, the police in Los Angeles were not polite to these people, and even if they organized capable SWAT officers, they stormed the federal government building, and pulled out these lucky troublemakers one by one and arrested them.

Although the rebellion, which was attended by nearly 100,000 people, lasted only four hours, the impact was very far-reaching.

This time, more than 600 people were injured and two people died. It is worth mentioning that several of the reporters who were on the scene were injured, and the two people who died were killed by the police in the corner of the federal government building, and the other was unfortunately fell from the window on the sixth floor when he was arrested and fled.

According to preliminary statistics, at this time, the chaos caused a total of $200 million in economic losses, of which more than a dozen police cars were burned down, and the federal government building was also damaged on a large scale, and two of the floors were also set on fire with gasoline, making it a mess.

Bush, the newly inaugurated US President who announced his inauguration, told the media that the White House is very concerned about the chaos that occurred in Los Angeles, and he personally believes that the Los Angeles City Government is capable of handling the aftermath of this incident.

Just one day later, a larger-scale disturbance broke out in Los Angeles again, and the cause of the incident was still the legendary and mysterious singer Long, who had risen rapidly in the United States for less than a year, because of the large number of participants, the destruction of Cheng DΓΉ, the number of injuries, and the death of two people, the impact was of course greater.

This time, the world's major media and newspapers, without exception, made the front page headlines of the big incident in Los Angeles, and reported in great depth on the causes, consequences, and process of this incident.

The world's major newspapers, including the United States, have criticized and even criticized the cause of this incident and the FBI's arrest of Long for no reason. The British "Times" took the title of "Who is to blame for the Los Angeles riots?" and tried its best to ridicule the FBI, pointing the person most responsible for the Los Angeles riots directly at the FBI, and saying that the FBI should bear full responsibility for the incident.

The "Mirror" was even more spicy, directly reporting in an accusatory tone on the fault of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation in this incident under the title of "The Culprit -- FBI," and suggested that the director of the US FBI should take the blame and resign.

The French Reuters news agency also pointed out sharply that the large-scale chaos in Los Angeles could have been avoided in advance, as long as the FBI could find out the first time to meet with the fans at the scene, and then persuade these fans to leave, there would be no subsequent violent incidents at all.

The rest of the world's media outlets were almost unanimous in criticizing the FBI's slow response to the incident, pointing out that the FBI was to blame for the incident.

The FBI was at the center of world opinion for a while.

In addition to blaming the FBI as the initiator, the world's major media also almost unanimously praised Long and was able to "timely" intervene to stop the Los Angeles Great. The further expansion of the chaos was highly praised, especially the words he said at the press conference, his courage to take responsibility, and his deep protection of his fans, after the world's major media reports and moderate rendering, his glorious image was immediately greatly improved, and the number of fans in various countries around the world also immediately exploded*.

Chen Feng stayed in Adams' president's office for an hour that day, and did not leave the company and return to the Four Seasons Hotel until the incident had subsided on television and the situation had been brought under control.

In the hotel, Chen Feng was still very concerned about the final result of this big * chaos incident, turned on the TV, and paid attention to it as soon as possible. Later the results came in: more than 600 people were injured, two were killed, and the economic damage was estimated at $200 million. Chen Feng was secretly relieved when he heard the news, he was really afraid that Adams's crow mouth would be right, and the loss would reach billions or billions of dollars, in that case, with the money that Long is currently selling records, it is obvious that he will not be able to make money in a short period of time, and if he wants to make up for it himself, of course he is not willing to do it. These two hundred million dollars are a lot in the eyes of others, but in Chen Feng's eyes now, they are nothing. What's more, according to Adams's estimates, as long as his debut album expands the circulation again, it is estimated that Long will be able to get hundreds of millions of dollars in dividends, if Long is now willing to accept endorsement advertising, there are several world famous brands carefully selected by Adams on hand, including Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Nike, Adidas, Armani, Geely razor, men's underwear DKNY and other companies, if you take five or six, you can also get at least five or six dollars in revenue. In addition, there are also the copyright fees charged for his songs in entertainment venues, which is also a lot of income in a year. In short, there is no profit to be gained.

After Chen Feng learned of this result, he immediately decided to take out 10 million US dollars in advance to comfort the fans who were injured in this * chaos and sell American fans a good.

He did what he wanted, and he immediately called Adams.

"Adams, I plan to come up with 10 million US dollars this time to set up a special fund, and the company will pay tribute to the injured fans in this * chaos, what do you think?" Chen Feng said his plan straight to the point.

Adams was silent for a moment before he said, "Long, are you really going to do this? Ten million dollars is not a small amount. ”

Chen Feng thought to himself that the wool came out of the sheep anyway, and now he invests this 10 million, and believes that he will be able to earn back 100 million in the near future.

Chen Feng said seriously: "I have decided, I can still take out 10 million US dollars." Moreover, I have promised in front of the media that I will take responsibility for this incident and compensate for the damages. This 10 million is my first compensation fund. ”

Adams on the other end of the conversation couldn't help frowning and said, "Long, no one will ask you to really pay compensation, and the estimated economic loss this time is 200 million US dollars." Do you really want to pay full compensation? This incident is not your fault at all, and the culprit is the FBI. If you want to pay compensation, they are the same. Damn, they also use our taxpayers' hard-earned money, anyway, you are completely not responsible for this incident, you don't have to blame yourself. ”

"Well, Adams, this time two people died, and more than six hundred were wounded. The cause of this incident is entirely because of me, how can I not be responsible. Chen Feng sighed and said, "Of course, I can't take out the economic loss of 200 million yuan at once, I will pay 10 million US dollars first, otherwise, my conscience will be disturbed." ”

"Oh well. I think this time I will simply set up a long fund, named in your name, the purpose is to help the fans who were injured in the * chaos this time. Of the more than 600 people, not all of them can afford their own medical expenses. Adams was secretly moved by Chen Feng's sentiments, and at the same time, he also thought of hoping to use the idea of this "long fund" to further improve Chen Feng's social influence and popularity.

"Okay, do as you say, this time I'll trouble you and the company. Tomorrow, I will remit 10 million to the company's account. Chen Feng's main purpose of spending this $10 million is to give the world, especially Americans, an idol image who does what he says, cares about his fans, and cares, that is, let all Americans and even the world know about it.

By the time I ended the phone call with Adams, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening, and it was eight o'clock in the morning at home.

"Chen Feng, I just called and asked if we had already bought a ticket to return to China tomorrow? Listening to his tone, he was a little angry, saying that you came to the United States this time, and when you return to China, he will not let you go abroad in the future. Momiji said worriedly.

Chen Feng couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this, as early as when he was a guest at the Consulate General before, his father called him and asked him to return to China immediately, and his tone was quite bad, and he also clearly told him not to "sell" in the future, and the family did not rarely make the few dollars he earned.

Of course, Chen Feng knew that the real reason why his father was angry was that he was worried about himself, so he could only reluctantly agree at that time. Now he's calling Momiji again, presumably he must have not slept well all night last night in his hometown. Chen Feng disagreed with his father's idea of letting him stop being a singer, he has now begun to like the feeling of being a star and being worshipped, and being a singer makes so much money makes him feel very fulfilled. It's a pity to give it up, but he doesn't want to have a conflict with his father, so he can think of a way to come out of this, and if he doesn't come to the United States in the future, he will record records in Hong Kong, Taiwan, or even the mainland, and then continue to sell them in the United States, and continue to be his long. In this way, presumably my father should not object again.

"My dad, it's worried about me. It seems that in the future, we in the United States will really not be able to come in a short period of time. "The United States, to be honest, is a great place to travel and shop, but it's a pity.

"Oh, after that, I wanted to see Emily only online. Momiji was also a little disappointed.

Chen Feng said with a smile: "If you have a chance, just invite Adams' family to come to our house as a guest." ”

Momiji laughed when she heard this, "That's a good note, just let Emily stay in our house for a while longer, or just study with us." ”

Chen Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes and said: "You think well, so you have company, but you also have to be willing by other people's family members and parents." ”

Momiji stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, apparently she didn't think the idea would come true.

After the two chatted for a while, Chen Feng went to the Internet, while Hongye continued to watch the news reports on TV with relish, and the content was still a further report on the 100,000 **** chaos incident in Los Angeles.

In addition to checking the reports on the Internet about this big * chaos, Chen Feng went online to contact Messer. Because he has not taken the initiative to contact Chen Feng so far, this matter is a bit abnormal. Chen Feng was afraid that his phone was not secure, so he went online and used the private chat software that Messer gave him to find him.

As soon as Chen Feng went online, Messer sent a message: "Boss, I am now being targeted by the U.S. government, and I suspect that your arrest this time is that my phone call with you was eavesdropped by them some time ago." As far as I know, they have begun to suspect my relationship with you, but because I have taken strict confidentiality measures a few years ago, the relevant insiders have been accused and warned by me, and they have not yet found out the specific information. However, I don't think we can hide this matter of our relationship for much longer, and you better be prepared. Or, as I would venture to guess, they have already guessed my relationship with you, as well as the government of your country, and they may already know that you are the one behind FENGSAI. ”

Chen Feng was stunned by Messer's words, if the secret of his "world's richest man" was known by the governments of the two countries, then his free life would be over.

"Messer, it can't be. Chen Feng was suspicious, "According to the FBI officer who arrested me, they knew that I was the boss of Huateng International Holdings Investment Group, and I instructed Karina to salvage a sum on Wall Street, which indirectly caused financial turmoil and annoyed the US government. ”

Messer was silent for a while before he replied, "Alas, boss, when you say that, I'm 80% sure that the relationship between you and me is already known to them, and that FBI agent, either he doesn't know about it, or he lied to you." Although the strength of Huateng International Holding Investment Group is increasing day by day, it has not grown to the point of threatening the financial situation in the United States, and, if I remember correctly, this is not the first time you have come to the United States, they should have known that you are the boss behind Huateng Group, if they wanted to arrest you, they would have arrested you a long time ago, why wait until you have become a long time after countless fans in the United States have embraced half the sky, they know that your influence among fans is still so risky to arrest you and force you to become an American citizen, it shows that they have a greater reason to let them do this, and this reason is that you are the mastermind behind FENGSAI。 This time, if it were not for the intervention of your country's government, or even for your ambassador to the United States to make solemn representations to the US government, the US government would not have let you go so quickly. Obviously, your country should also be informed of your identity. Otherwise, there is no reason for your country to take such a tough stance on this matter. ”

After Chen Feng listened to Messer's inference, the cold sweat on his forehead came down, and there was a cold feeling behind him. FENGSAI, THE PERSON BEHIND THE GIANT GROUP, IS A TITLE THAT IS REALLY DANGEROUS FOR HIM*, AND NOW THAT HE IS STILL BEING TARGETED BY THE UNITED STATES, A SUPERPOWER, AND HE IS STILL ON THE TERRITORY OF THE UNITED STATES, THIS MATTER IS NOT FUNNY AT ALL.

As if knowing Chen Feng's worries, Messer hurriedly comforted: "Boss, don't worry, you have now been protected by your country, and the U.S. government will never dare to act rashly, your current identity is very sensitive, if the matter is exposed, it will be very unfavorable to the U.S. government." The United States has always proclaimed democracy and freedom, and the sanctity of personal property. But judging from the fact that they secretly arrested the world's richest man for no reason, their actions are obviously contrary to the US Constitution. They will never say anything about it. Therefore, your identity is still kept secret in front of the world. Basically, it will not interfere with your normal life. ”

Chen Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "But I feel very bad now, whether it is the United States or my own country, I don't want this secret to be known by them, but now I know." I really don't know what awaits me when I return home. ”
