China Entertainment 1997
Chapter 648: The knife-inserting scandal and Manchester United shareholders
Qin City, Beidaihe Villa
In the morning, Cao Xuan, who had rarely slept in, sat up from the bed. Before he was fully awake, he saw his daughter coming in with a smile and a candy in her hands.
"Dad, eat."
"It didn't fall to the ground."
Cao Xuan, who has the suspicious gene of the old Cao family, is not very vigilant. Cao Li shook his head.
"No, clean."
Thinking that his daughter also liked to feed him food every day, Cao Xuan opened his mouth. It was corn-flavored and quite sweet.
"Go out first, daddy gets dressed."
But Cao Li didn't leave, blinking: "Dad, you ate my candy, can you take me to the beach to play."
"..."
Cao Xuan wanted to spit out the candy, but looking at his pitiful daughter, he gave in.
"Let's see how you behave first. Bring me my slippers, and then my aunt will help me make a cup of coffee, with milk and no sugar."
Cao Li nodded, bought some slippers, and then went downstairs to find the nanny. Cao Xuan got dressed and washed himself.
As soon as he got downstairs, he saw Cao Li standing in front of a cup of coffee, looking at him with credit.
He shook his head helplessly: "Ask your mother for some sunscreen to avoid getting tanned."
"yeah!"
Cao Li jumped up with joy, and Cao Xuan sat down on the sofa, drinking coffee and reading the news on his phone.
"Oh, this knife-inserting affair isn't over yet."
"What door?"
Cao Shuangguo, who was watching TV, asked, and Cao Xuan organized his language.
"Let's put it this way, you have a good brother, and the two of you are very caring. It can be said that you have two sides.
One day, you and a woman had a dispute over work, and the other woman hit you. You didn't fight back, but she turned around and told others that you were the one who hit her.
You have no explanation, but people outside don’t believe you. A large group of the woman’s friends and colleagues came to scold you. The key is that you, a good brother, stood up and asked you to apologize indiscriminately.
Everyone knows that you two are good brothers. When he came out, his crotch was sticky with yellow mud, and he was either shit or shit. Because of this, your job was ruined. Later, he even took over your job.
A man stabs his brother in two ways, and he stabs his brother in two ways. This is the stabbing door. "
"This kind of person is the worst thing."
People of the older generation like Cao Shuangguo hate people who go behind the scenes. After hearing Cao Xuan's description, he was disgusted. When he heard that he was from the entertainment industry, he quickly reminded his son.
"You have to stay away from this kind of person. If you treat him as a good friend, they will plot against you behind your back every day."
"What I'm saying is, don't worry, I won't play with them."
Cao Xuan has been paying attention to the Shan Dao Sect incident. From the one-sided situation before, to the truth being revealed, the so-called Shan Dao cultists are now being madly criticized by netizens.
It is worth mentioning that after the incident, the celebrities who initially besieged the person involved basically deleted their blogs or disappeared. The only one who publicly apologized was Sister-in-law Lu.
Putting aside other aspects, on this matter alone, she can be regarded as brave enough to take responsibility.
One thing to say is that most of the celebrities in the beginning were deceived by the woman in question's essay, and they supported her out of classmates or friends. Their original intentions were not necessarily bad.
What's even more disgusting is that after he made a mistake and refused to admit it, after being violently abused online, he sentenced himself to a person who didn't know and was not guilty, and collectively pretended to be stupid.
But the most disgusting thing is the good brother and the big black bull.
Needless to say, that good brother is a complete scumbag. Others are at most supportive. He is on the line with netizens 24 hours a day, and he speaks with certainty. He desperately wants to kill his good brother and beats people, for fear that he will not die. Later, I got the endorsement from Heilan House.
Dahei Niu is more interesting. Although the previous celebrities did not apologize, they at least knew they were wrong and pretended to be dead.
It turned out that this guy was rather weird. He even felt wronged and wrote a short essay by himself to accuse netizens of scolding him.
He didn't think he was the one who hit him, so why did he get scolded?
Then he recruited a large group of friends to speak for him, causing a second turmoil. As a result, many people were included in the Sword Cult, but in fact they had no connection with the previous incident at all.
Many people regard Da Hei Niu as the top of the four guardians of the Sword Sect, but Cao Xuan feels that his ranking is low, and he is at least a deputy leader.
Looking at the big black bull who was still shouting crazily on Weibo, Boss Cao, who had always been low-key, couldn't stand it anymore.
He originally didn't want to deal with this matter, it was not his character, but thinking about the "Hunting" he filmed, if he had the ability to speak out but chose to remain silent, wouldn't he be the violent party to a certain extent?
Cao Xuan hesitated for a few minutes, @checked the relevant news on the official Weibo, and then posted a Weibo message.
[I have been watching the news these days. Although I have some hindsight, I still want to say that sometimes we need to let the bullets fly for a while.
I watched Yuan Yuan's "Search" a few days ago, and many viewers on the Internet expressed emotion, saying that cyber violence is terrible, but this incident is not an alternative type of cyber violence.
Public figures have a wide range of influence, so sometimes they have to be more careful with their words and deeds, and try their best to set an example for fans and the public in public, and guide them with correct values.
I don’t want to discuss the rights and wrongs of the two parties involved, but I don’t seem to have seen a few people who were filled with righteous indignation apologize to the parties involved. Shouldn’t the parties involved be given an explanation for those jokes, or even alleged insults and slanders?
Children all know that they should stand up when they are spanked, correct their mistakes when they know they are wrong, and silence can deceive themselves, but not everyone]
Cao Xuan didn't talk about it, nor did he want to vent his anger on Yin Xiaotian's behalf by banning someone.
It's not necessary, it's too overbearing, and even Cao Xuan won't criticize their behavior of helping relatives but not helping, because he himself is such a person, and he understands that this is human nature.
But correcting mistakes when you recognize them is also a basic quality of life.
Cao Xuan won't force others to do things that he can't do himself, but for things that he thinks he can do, or things that most normal people can do, if you mess with him by being special, don't say that he is bullying others. .
The law does not punish the public, and a few words of praise will not cause these people to be severely punished.
But if you have wronged an innocent person and even led fans and netizens to attack cyberbullying to a certain extent, you should at least have an apology attitude.
Cao Xuan felt that this was not a punishment, but that he wanted an explanation and response, which was very, very polite.
It's because the person involved has nothing to do with him. If it were him and his relatives and friends, he could kill these people.
And this apology can be regarded as giving them a step up, and it can be regarded as restoring a certain image. If this cannot be done, this person's character and character are completely hopeless...
Cao Xuan's Weibo was quickly reposted by netizens, and everyone was overjoyed.
[Finally, a heavyweight spoke up, and I was almost pissed off]
[Damn those people pretending to be dead, they forgot how they cursed before]
[Yin Xiaotian was so miserable. He was framed by a woman, penetrated by his brother, and scolded by netizens. The truth came out]
[At first, a group of people went to crusade, but now they have proven that they have eaten several bowls of noodles, and no one cares anymore]
[The big black cow is the most special beast, and he has been wronged. No wonder he wholesales stones]
[Cao Xuan is right. This is not because we are scolding him at all, but because they bully others online first and then refuse to apologize and then talk back. They deserve to be scolded]
【Just a bunch of garbage】
[Haha, Dong Xuan apologized, it took less than ten minutes, so fast]
[Yan Kuan also apologized]
[Both of them are from Fanxing, so they must listen to Cao Xuan]
[It's a pity. Look, none of the celebrities are involved in this matter. They go out to do it alone, their fame and popularity decline, and their brains are not good.]
[Wen Zhang and his wife also apologized, saying that they were too impulsive and realized the negative impact it caused, so they should pay attention to it in the future]
[Wang Luodan and Xue Jianing also apologized, the speed of light]
[Have you seen it? It’s not that these people don’t know they are wrong, they just pretend to be stupid and make their attitude clear as soon as the boss speaks.]
[Damn, it’s even more disgusting]
[No matter what, Cao Cao is mighty and domineering]
[The guy named Du still hasn’t said anything, brothers, rush him]
[A doggy apology! ! ! 】
【……】
Boss Cao's status is no joke. He just posted on Weibo without naming anyone, and many celebrities publicly apologized.
Of course, it's not ruled out that they themselves wanted to apologize, but they just didn't say it due to various reasons. They took this opportunity to apologize.
Of course, there are also those who are stubborn, and a large number of netizens flocked to the comment section to press for an apology.
By the 24th hour, most of the celebrities involved had expressed their attitude, and only three continued to pretend to be dead.
Du Sadao, Da Hei Niu, Yang Dashao, and Huang Jue.
Everyone can understand the first three, each one is more disgusting than the last. Young Master Yang, who I haven’t mentioned before, clearly has video evidence in his hand, and he still accuses people unjustly. In the end, he acts as the so-called "peacemaker", but he is actually relying on his power. Pressure.
Therefore, this deputy leader, who is also a famous one, would definitely be the leader if it were not for Brother Du Hao who blocked the sword.
Young Master Yang was arrogant and his relationship with Cao Xuan was not good, so it was normal for him to pretend to be dead.
However, it is worth mentioning that Huang Shengyi came forward to apologize. Considering the relationship between the two, it is difficult to say that this is not a different kind of submission.
As for Huang Jue, the target of Mr. Zhou's scandal, he was actually very low-key in his work.
After the incident, although others did not apologize, the two parties basically maintained a state of no contact with each other until death, and everyone went their separate ways.
The only one who is so petty is that he is obviously following the Internet trend, and yet he is hated by netizens because he is scolded by them.
Later, Yin Xiaotian was cheated into a marriage. This guy posted on Weibo to ridicule Yin for cheating people out of marriage. It was quite ironic and he was really not a son of a man.
Netizens collectively attacked the four people's Weibo posts, but they were no longer within Cao Xuan's consideration. After posting on Weibo, he took his daughter to the beach to pile sand and learn to swim.
But when he came back in the afternoon, Zeng Li handed him a phone number: "Yin Xiaotian asked someone to find out my phone number. I want to thank you."
Not many people have Cao Xuan's personal phone number, and they will not easily give the phone to others without Cao Xuan's permission, so it is difficult for outsiders to get Cao Xuan's personal contact information.
If you want to thank Cao Xuan personally, it is the most normal way to reduce the difficulty and call the people around him.
Yin is a Grade 94 student of China National Theater Academy. He is Zeng Li’s senior. He also has classmates and acquaintances at the school. Zeng Li has a special status and is not as high-ranking as Cao Xuan and Hu Jing. It is not difficult to get the phone number of Empress Xigong.
"Well, you're welcome..."
Cao Xuan took the phone and called back. He heard Yin thank him gratefully and said some words of comfort.
Yin is very grateful to Cao Xuan. Although he is reasonable about this matter, sometimes, many things are not divided into right and wrong.
Being caught in a public controversy has had a certain fluctuation and impact on his reputation and influence value. He was even vaguely targeted by several celebrities because of a verbal dispute.
Maybe it wasn't their intention, but there were a lot of relatives and friends who, out of various psychological reasons, joined forces to exclude him, which was enough for him to drink.
When Yin was at his peak, he was a popular first-line student. Yuan Shikong and Huang Xiaoming were among the top four major students in the mainland. Although he has not been pushed to the top due to the rise of stars, he should not be underestimated, otherwise he would not be able to win the endorsement of a men's clothing brand.
However, in the past two years, Yin Xiaotian's development has not gone smoothly. Although there is still no shortage of leading male roles, he has actually begun to fall behind.
Popularity and influence have fallen off the line, and the company is not very powerful, otherwise it would not be stepped on.
For the same thing, if Yin is replaced by Hu Ge, Huang Xiaoming, or even Wen Zhang, it's hard to say what direction public opinion will take.
Not to mention the corporate power and number of fans behind it, as well as a large group of friends in the industry, just his celebrity status can dispel many people's justice.
In the entertainment industry, it’s normal to praise someone who is high and criticize someone who is low!
In the original time and space, after this incident, Yin's resources plummeted. Not only did he no longer have endorsements, but he also no longer had access to any high-quality resources. Fortunately, he was still a strong actor and had no shortage of acting, but he was only in the second or third line.
But now that Cao Xuan is involved, not to mention leaving him unscathed or getting any benefits, it can also alleviate a lot of targeting and pressure.
For Yin Xiaotian, this was already very satisfying, not to mention seeing those people apologize to him with his own eyes, and he wished he could treat Cao Xuan as a noble.
After hanging up the phone, Cao Xuan went to give his daughter some water to take a bath without taking Yin's gratitude to heart.
First of all, he doesn't care about the other party, he just can't stand it and speaks out for justice. Secondly, this is also a master who can afford to let go.
When the original time and space incident occurred, the dead girl scolded him very harshly. Later, when filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Yin was approached to play Hong Qigong, and Yin readily accepted, less than two years later.
There is a theory that the dead girl intends to compensate or reconcile. Anyway, look at the Weibo messages at that time, which are particularly dark humorous.
What's even more humorous is that later on in a variety show, Yin and Du participated in a variety show at the same time, and then hugged each other, leading to a reconciliation of the century nearly ten years later.
From a practical point of view, Cao Xuan understood what Yin was doing. After all, he had to eat, and it was just a joke.
Boss Cao also talked and laughed with some people he didn't like. Adults can't be so black and white.
But then again, Boss Cao stood up for him, and later he reconciled with others. Cao Xuan, who had always had double standards and was petty, always felt a little uncomfortable.
So I simply don’t talk to the other party anymore. I don’t care about the situation but the person. It has nothing to do with what the other person thinks in the future, whether they want to reconcile or not...
………
In Qin City in July, the temperature is just right. The whole family, except Hu Jing, has to visit the company from time to time to escape the heat together.
Cao Xuan once again fell into vacation mode. When he had nothing to do, he would invite people to play, and when he had time to spare, he would go to watch the Chinese Super League.
Jingcheng Guoan, Jinmen Master Kong, Lianshi Shide, Albin, and Quancheng Luneng are only a few hours away by car or high-speed rail, which is much more convenient than flying to the UK.
Cao Xuan didn't like to watch the Chinese Super League very much before, but in the past two years, Evergrande has failed, and the major teams have followed suit and spent money. The strength level and the game scene are much better.
He goes to play when he has free time, mainly because he likes the atmosphere of watching football live. It is really inconvenient to go abroad, so he can only satisfy his craving in the Chinese Super League.
Many fans caught Cao Xuan on the court, not only watching the game, but also asking for autographs and photos. Reporters also liked to stop him and ask him if he had any plans to invest in football.
Ever since Evergrande boss Xu stepped down and achieved good results, this has gradually become a hot topic, and many bosses have expressed interest in football.
It reached its peak after Evergrande won the AFC Champions League in 2013. Taobao's Jack Ma directly took 50% of Evergrande's shares, and Lao Wang also hinted that he would come back to play.
Even not only in China, but also in Europe, Chinese-funded people are also tentatively contacting football clubs.
At its peak, Chinese-funded clubs had dozens of clubs in Europe, including more than a dozen in the five major leagues, including established giants such as Inter Milan and Milan, powerful teams such as Atletico Madrid and Lyon, and even the parent company behind Manchester City. The group also has Chinese investment.
In addition, the NBA also has a basketball player named Cai, who spent billions of dollars to build a strong championship team.
However, in the end, most of these Chinese investors were defeated and retired.
Milan has run away, Wanda sadly left Atletico Madrid for its own reasons, and Suning's old Zhang family has killed the domestic Chinese Super League champion, and the management of Inter Milan is also in jeopardy.
Boss Cai's management is fine, but he still has to battle with Durant from time to time.
Strictly speaking, among the clubs dominated by Chinese wholly-owned holdings, the one with relatively healthy follow-up operations should be Fosun Group's Wolves, which was purchased for 45 million pounds and later valued at 175 million. Putting aside the exchange rate, it has nearly quadrupled. .
However, Cao Xuan is not tempted by this. The domestic football environment is fierce, and the foreign environment is also difficult.
So when faced with reporters' questions, Cao Xuan just made a joke.
"I don't understand this aspect of business. If Manchester United is willing to sell someday, I will invest in football and forget about other clubs."
He meant it as a joke, but the reporters didn't take it too seriously, and each headline was more horrifying than the last.
"Chinese superstars are involved in football, and only wealthy families will not buy it"
"Unintentional Super League, Cao Xuan wants to take over the European Red Devils"
"If you want to play, play big, Cao Xuan: I want to buy Manchester United"
"..."
Not only did domestic netizens watch the excitement, but it even spread to the UK, and many British and Manchester United fans took it seriously.
[It’s great that Cao wants to buy Manchester United, he is a true Red Devils fan]
[Our new boss is the singer of "Wake", which is great]
[Watch football matches on weekends, let Cao hold a concert on Monday, and sing every night at Old Trafford]
[Very well, no matter who it is, just tell the Glazer family to get out]
[Don’t be fooled by the media. Manchester United’s market value is 1.8 billion pounds, Cao doesn’t have that much money]
[You are ignorant, Cao is not only a singer, but also a super rich man. Does Marvel know that he has stocks worth 1 billion US dollars, and Twitter, he is also a major shareholder]
[I am a Chinese student studying abroad. Cao Xuan is indeed very rich. He is an entertainment tycoon in Asia. The entertainment group he controls in China is worth more than 10 billion pounds. There are also two Internet companies with a market value of tens of billions of pounds. He also has certain Shares]
[Yes, some financial institutions estimate that his wealth is no less than Bill Gates. If Cao is willing, he can easily buy Manchester United]
[Then what are he waiting for? Let Glazer go away and buy Messi and Neymar]
[I want Gotze and Hazard more]
[I don’t care, let Ronaldo go home first and spend money to kill Real Madrid]
【……】
Cao Xuan, who was far away in China, had no idea that the British had started to flirt with him and spend money like crazy after he took over Manchester United. It was only after several star friends in Europe called him to inquire that he found out what was going on.
That's dumbfounding. He is rich, but Manchester United really can't just buy it.
Raising so much cash is no small matter, and the Glazer family may not be able to sell it. The current Manchester United is not the hot yam that it will be later. Ferguson has not retired yet, and Manchester United is still in the championship echelon. Only fools will take possession of a team on the rise. sell away.
Unless Cao Xuan spends a premium, but Cao Xuan is not mentally ill. He likes Manchester United, which does not mean he has to become the owner of Manchester United.
That's fine if the conditions and timing are right, but forcefully attacking is not in line with his style, and based on Abramovich's experience, Boss Cao does not trust the British investment environment.
So Cao Xuan specifically explained this on Twitter. He had no plan to buy Manchester United. It was actually media hype.
However, when he turned around, Cao Xuan received a call from Malcolm Glazer, the leader of the Glazer family.
Cao Xuan originally thought that the other party was here to "raise troops to investigate the crime."
Although he doesn't have a good impression of this family from a fan's perspective, their personal relationship is really not bad.
As a shrewd businessman, Glazer attaches great importance to Cao Xuan's reputation and influence in Asia and the world. Every time he goes to Manchester United, he will make good arrangements and all receive VIP-level treatment.
The two parties have also collaborated on marketing many times. The 2010 World Cup hit "Wake" was the work of both companies. After several rounds of cooperation, they have established a good relationship.
Before Cao Xuan went to the United States, his son specially invited Cao Xuan to watch their football team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which was the team that later Tom Brady played for.
Cao Xuan just wanted to explain a few words, but then he was confused by Glazer's words.
The other party is not "camping to investigate", but wants to sell 2% of Manchester United's shares to Cao Xuan at a low price. The market price is about 36 million pounds, and Cao Xuan can win it for 20 million pounds.
This incredible request sounded like the Glazer family had taken the wrong medicine, but Cao Xuan was keenly aware of the final key.
Glazer was not crazy, but took a fancy to Cao Xuan's fame and influence, and planned to ride on the popularity.
You know, Manchester United just went public this year, and it is a serious listed company. Glazer and the others are trying their best to drive up Manchester United's stock price every day.
What gimmick can cause more sensation than the joining of a superstar, and Cao Xuan is not only influential among the public, but also has his own assets and wealth, which is very attractive in the financial market.
Cao Xuan's willingness to invest in Manchester United is, to some extent, releasing a positive signal about Manchester United to the outside world, which can attract many retail investors and investors to pursue Manchester United's stocks.
There is no need to check, Cao Xuan can guarantee the vote. The news of the past few days must have increased Manchester United's stock price, otherwise the old boy Glazer would not come over to sell his shares.
2% sold for 20 million pounds, which seems to be a big loss, but it is likely to be directly earned back several times in the stock market later.
There are many similar operations. For example, the later owner of Liverpool sold a small share of his shares to NBA star James.
Liverpool certainly does not lack this money, but James's fame and influence can help Liverpool develop the American market.
In the same way, Cao Xuan joining Manchester United will be of great help to increase its stock price and develop the Asian and international markets.
"Damn, these people are really good!"
