C2248 Interview meetings (1/2)
The Prussian freelance writer Leo, now a reddish, purplish golden penholder in Europe, did not rely on any newspaper in itself, but any newspaper had to have a good relationship with him.
This was because Leo was the head of the Chinese propaganda war in Europe. He held countless pieces of explosive news. Any news related to the East would pass through his hands.
Right now, if the Thames wanted to write a report on East Asia, they would have to ask him for guidance first.
As soon as Xiao Letian gave the order, Lei Ao immediately took action. He personally sent invitations to all the newspapers that had good relations with him, and the black horse carriage from the East Palace ran all over the City of London. The exhausted policemen following behind him were as dead as dogs.
Even if no one invited them, they would still want to interview Xiao Letian. When they heard that the leader had spent half a day to do an interview with a small group of people, the editors of the various major newspapers immediately took action.
At 8 AM in the morning, vehicles were gathered in front of the Eastern Palace gate. The people who had arrived today were the true elites of the newspaper industry. Their statuses were extremely high.
In the Eastern Palace's luxurious hall, the bright red velvet chairs were soft and comfortable. The seats of the editors were arranged into a semicircle with a single sofa in the center.
The atmosphere in the hall was very relaxed and casual. There were many fresh flowers placed around, and a top-grade sandalwood was burning in the corner. There was a quiet and serene atmosphere in the hall.
Flowers, sandalwood, and the faint sound of a zither could be heard from afar. A strong Oriental feeling blew over. After the editors took their seats, a maid quickly brought out towels and iced tea. From a distance, he turned on the rotating fan to bring in a breeze.
Not long after he sat down, he heard the sound of leather boots hitting the floor from the entrance, ”Salute!” The guard stood at attention with his chest puffed up, Xiao Letian led his generals into the hall.
All of the editors stood up and clapped as they looked at the leader. It seemed like the emotional investment from before was still very useful, Benjamin's tarnishing did not change their impression of the Hua Clan.
Today, Xiao Letian did not wear a Field Marshal's uniform, neither did he wear a suit. Instead, he wore a set of ordinary clothes made of linen, which gave off a thick Chinese wind, causing people to feel extremely comfortable.
”Everyone, please take a seat. There's plenty of time today. I'll give everyone a special interview. We can have a deep chat and talk about anything …” Sit down! ”
After the host took his seat and began his opening speech, everyone quickly went back to the main topic. A total of twenty-six editors, with the Thames newspaper as the main editor, began to take turns asking questions.
”What do you think of the Prime Minister's assessment of you, Führer? And what's the best way to deal with it? ”
”Mm …” Thank you for your openness. Since I have asked this sensitive question, I naturally will not avoid it … ”Prime Minister Benjamin called me a barbarian warlord. Let's talk about this later, let's talk about what is a nation first …”
