Chapter 91

"Miss Sun Yizhen, it is said that the reason you, a newcomer, were able to take on the lead role in 'Blue生死恋' (Blue Love and Death) is because Dr. Li Zhengxi personally chose you. Is it because you are his **?"

"Miss Sun Yizhen, it is said that you and Dr. Li Zhengxi have already **. Is that true?"

While the media harassment was taking place at He Zhiyuan's side, the cast of 'Blue Love and Death' was also facing a similar situation. However, the police quickly appeared and roughly took the journalists away, without giving any reason. This naturally left everyone puzzled. Even Li Zhengxi, who was recuperating at the Yangju Hospital, was surprised when he first encountered the same situation with He Zhiyuan.

"Dr. Li Zhengxi, it is said that you have connections with the black* gang members in Seoul and often play with them. Is that true?"

"Dr. Li Zhengxi, it is said that you have a deep relationship with the two female artists from Empire Entertainment, He Zhiyuan and Sun Yizhen, and that you signed them because of your intimate relationship...?"

A group of journalists suddenly appeared at his hospital room door and, despite the bodyguards' attempts to stop them, they loudly shouted from outside. It was impossible for Li Zhengxi not to hear them. He knew that this was a trick orchestrated by companies like Wellde, but he had no power to counter it at the moment.

Seeing the unhappy faces of Jin Meiyuan and others, he felt even more depressed. Fortunately, Director Tian Maosheng, who was always proactive, appeared. He led his team to the scene and, upon seeing the journalists at the door, he waved his hand and shouted excitedly to his subordinates, "Arrest them all! If anyone resists, beat them to death..."

The last part, as his confidants, was well understood, and soon the cries of the journalists could be heard at the door.

These are journalists, the kings without crowns. They could not tolerate such violent behavior. One of them led the charge, shouting, "We are journalists! Who are you, and where are you from? I will sue you..."

"Exactly, you dare to beat journalists. We will sue you..." the other journalists quickly joined in.

"Journalists, sue us?" Tian Maosheng stared at the man with disdain, kicked him in the face, and ignored his cries, sneering, "You don't know when to quit. You don't deserve to be journalists..."

He then had his men take the journalists away and politely knocked on the door. When he entered the room, he smiled and said, "I am truly sorry, Dr. Li, for these rascals disturbing you. It's all my fault!"

Li Zhengxi was filled with doubts, but he decided to set them aside for now. He had to respond politely to this overly attentive man. He smiled and said, "Not at all, Director Tian, you have been so kind to me. I am truly grateful. Once I recover, I will definitely find a way to thank you!"

This was exactly what Tian Maosheng wanted to hear. He smiled so widely that his eyes were almost invisible and nodded repeatedly, "Not at all, not at all..."

He then greeted Jin Meiyuan and the others politely. After all, anyone who could bring such matters to the Blue House, not only Li Zhengxi himself but also the people around him, needed to be treated well.

After greeting everyone, Tian Maosheng did not leave immediately. He was not only a smooth talker but also a smart man. He noticed Li Zhengxi's confusion and quickly realized that, although the matter had been brought to the Blue House, the latest developments were not yet clear. This was another opportunity to show his worth.

Therefore, Tian Maosheng cleared his throat and said with a suitable smile, "Dr. Li, you may still have some doubts about the current situation. Let me explain..."

"This is what happened: After we arrested Wu Jingye early this morning, he quickly confessed to the mastermind behind the scenes, who is Jin Bingzhong from Seoul. This person is a gangster in Seoul. It is said that he wanted to take over your Empire Entertainment, which is why he orchestrated all this. We are still interrogating him for more details..."

"However, during the investigation of this case, we discovered that other people were involved. As you know, this morning, media outlets like B and The Chosun Ilbo published false reports about you. Under the supervision of the Broadcasting Administration, B and The Chosun Ilbo immediately conducted self-inspections and quickly found clues. They identified the people involved, such as those who bribed and manipulated the journalists who appeared earlier. Therefore, we acted swiftly, but unfortunately, we were a bit late and they still managed to disturb you."

"Uh, as for the ultimate mastermind, we are still following the leads, but we believe we will have results soon..."

Although brief, Li Zhengxi finally understood the sequence of events and felt much better. He then chatted amicably with Tian Maosheng, who wanted to talk more.

While some were happy, others were not. At noon, the representative of Wellde, Wang, and the representative of Fnnypln, Wen, watched the noon news on B TV, and a chill began to rise in their hearts.

"B TV has experienced a case of journalists colluding with outsiders to frame Dr. Li Zhengxi. This is not only a disgrace to B TV but also a personal embarrassment to me. I sincerely apologize for this incident and hereby apologize to Dr. Li Zhengxi and the Korean people on behalf of B TV..."

The first news item on B TV's noon news was the president, Yan Jiying, personally holding a press conference to apologize to Dr. Li Zhengxi. "I reiterate that the morning reports on B TV about Dr. Li Zhengxi's involvement with the black* gang and his relationship with He Zhiyuan and Sun Yizhen are all false. We will hand over the chief editor and the journalists involved to the Seoul District Prosecutor's Office and the Seoul Metropolitan Police for strict handling... I apologize again to Dr. Li Zhengxi, He Zhiyuan, and Sun Yizhen for the trouble caused by this incident..."

The president of B TV, let alone the president, usually a producer is already very powerful, and mistreating artists is a common occurrence. For them to apologize is as difficult as climbing to the sky. As long as one is not too foolish, they would know that Yan Jiying must have been under immense pressure to make such a public apology.

Thinking of this, the representative of Wellde, Wang, immediately called his assistant and asked him to contact the people they had found yesterday. He wanted to quickly confirm if those people were safe, but soon he was filled with despair because he could not reach any of them. When he called the representative of Fnnypln, Wen, the situation was similar.

Coincidentally, B TV began broadcasting news related to the Li Zhengxi incident, "This morning, Wu Jingye, who ordered his subordinates to attack Dr. Li Zhengxi, was arrested. He is a gangster from Gangwon Province. However, through the efforts of the Gangwon Provincial Police, the true mastermind behind the incident was uncovered. It is Jin Bingzhong, a gangster from Seoul. He is a classmate of the representative of Empire Entertainment, Zhang. Because he coveted Empire Entertainment and wanted to take it over, he repeatedly threatened Zhang without success, leading him to plan the attack on Dr. Li Zhengxi to achieve his goal..."

"As for the sudden media smear campaign against Dr. Li Zhengxi today, multiple suspects have been arrested and are currently under interrogation. We believe the results will be known soon..."

With a thud, the wine glass in Wang's hand fell to the floor and shattered, just like his heart. He quickly reacted and called his big boss behind the scenes.

"What, you orchestrated this!" The other party was furious upon receiving the call because the matter had caused a city-wide uproar, and almost no one was unaware of it.

However, after a moment of calm, the other party considered that Wang was the representative of Wellde, and if he got into trouble, the company would suffer. Therefore, he gritted his teeth and, after Wang mentioned that the representative of Fnnypln, Zhang, was also involved, contacted the big boss behind the scenes at Fnnypln.

The big bosses behind the two companies were people of status and influence. While they might not have the power to control everything, they could easily find out the inside story.

However, they were soon stunned because the information they received was consistent: the Blue House was closely monitoring the matter.

The Blue House, a place they could only look up to. Therefore, the representative of Wellde, Wang, quickly received a call from his big boss. The voice on the other end was sinister and decisive, "Listen carefully. If you don't get your assistant to take full responsibility or make him shut up, and if you get arrested, remember, this is your problem and has nothing to do with Wellde. Otherwise, I will take care of your family. Do you understand?"

With a loud bang, the door to Wang's office was kicked open, and a group of police appeared at the door. His legs turned to jelly, and he fell to the ground with a thud... : Request for recommendations and collections!
