142 You Can Interview Now (2/2)
”It looks like you are hungry indeed!”
Xiao Luo stood up in satisfaction and waved his hand. Zhang Dashan handed a folder of file to him.
The file documented the reporters' information in detail. Zhang Dashan gathered those through his connections based on the reporters' names. He didn't do anything else all day except for trying to sort through the data here.
”Ding Xiaozhen!”
Xiao Luo announced a name, then continued to say, ”Who is Ding Xiaozhen?” ”
”It's... It's me...”
A sweet-looking female reporter stood up awkwardly.
”Your hometown is the county of An in Hu province. Your parents are still alive and you have a younger brother still in school. Did I get it right?” Xiao Luo asked her with a smile.
The female reporter's eyes widened. She nodded by instinct.
Xiao Luo ignored her and continued to read out the next reporter's name.
”Lu Dehua, your home is at Tian city of He province. You have a six-year-old son...”
”Luo Jinyuan, you're from Tang county of Jiangcheng...”
”Gong Lili, you're from the county of Hehua in Shan province...”
All the reporters who were mentioned by name, along with their exact home addresses and family members, turned pale in an instant. Even though Xiao Luo's tone was not threatening, they felt an indescribable sense of danger and horror.
Xiao Luo read aloud more than a dozen reporters' background, then shut the folder close with a bang. His hawk-like eyes swept the room coldly and said, ”Now, you can interview me!” He turned his head to face Zhang Dashan and said, ”Return their equiment to them.”
”OK!”
Following the order, Zhang Dashan ran out obsequiously.
Soon after, he brought back the reporters' microphones, cameras, and cellphones.
However, the reporters stood where they were motionlessly, staring at each other vacantly...
Interview? How were they going to interview him?
Their home addresses and family members were checked out by the other side. It was clearly intimidation!
At the moment, they were convinced of one thing, which was the Luo's Workshop was really backed by the underworld.
The journalists were usually puffed with pride and didn't care for stars or rich tycoons. They were even confident that they could take down any public figure if they wanted to. But they were frightened from the bottom of their hearts when it came to the underworld.
The underworld had no principles. They had to be prepared for retaliation if they offended the gansters.
”No, no. We will not interview you anymore. President Xiao, I promise, there will be no negative news about the Luo's Workshop on any major media outlets.”
”Yes, yes. The bread of the Luo's Workshop is up to standard and tastes delicious. We sampled it ourselves. It's much better than Taste Buds's.”
”We are too shallow to recognize your eminence. President Xiao is a magnanimous and generous man. We hope you won't take umbrage at the likes of us.”
Conceded. The reporters all got down from their high horses and smiled apologetically at Xiao Luo.
In their eyes, Xiao Luo was the head of a gang who would harm people by underhand means that they could never afford to offend. They were now deeply regretful about listening to Chen Jianbai and coming to the Luo's Workshop to look for trouble. In the end, they fell into a pit of their own digging.
