Originally, there were no absolute friends in the officialdom. Facing such an unprecedented rectification, everyone felt insecure. So, at this critical moment, those who were upright and not afraid of the shadow stood out.
They submitted some negative information, hoping to be promoted further. Obviously, compared to other professions, it was as difficult as ascending to heaven to have a meteoric rise in the officialdom. Most people climbed up slowly, but they were also affected by many factors.
Now that such a great opportunity was in front of them, they naturally had to cherish it. Moreover, even if they had some evidence, there was no way to deliver it. If they were discovered, they would be finished for the rest of their lives.
Now that they had Shangguan Guoqiang's support, they naturally had nothing to fear. Not only in the officialdom, but even a group of big shots in the business world also responded. Some bureaucrats were suspected of violating the law, which was understandable. As the saying goes, "When a wall is down, everyone pushes it, and when a broken drum is down, ten thousand people beat it."
When those bureaucrats were proud of their success, they naturally had all kinds of flattery. For men, they had endless desires for money and beauty. Everyone had seven emotions and six desires. Maybe before they took office, they were ready to work hard and guide the country. However, they were in an environment that seemed to be active, but was actually passive.
After receiving all kinds of reports, the special disciplinary committee began to investigate. There were actually no less than thirty officials above the deputy division level who were convicted. The bureaucrats in the province could be said to be in distress. As the saying goes, some people are happy, some people are sad. Countless netizens strongly liked the news. No one knew where the news came from, but it was said that Shangguan Guoqiang was supporting them from behind. The people couldn't help but sigh. The commander-in-chief was already over eighty years old, but he could still make such a big movement. Not only did he sweep away the evil wind, but he also found these well-hidden rats. It was really satisfying.
It was obvious that the positive energy transmitted from this matter was endless. When Shangguan Guoqiang received the feedback, he was extremely gratified. It seemed that it was as I had said, he had been silent for too long, to the extent that he had become an old man in the hearts of the people. Moreover, his thunderous actions had also received strong support from the higher-ups. Although it was unavoidable for officials to protect each other, it was undeniable that such a phenomenon could easily destroy one's foundation. As the saying goes, 'Gold on the outside, but rotten on the inside'. This was the principle.
In just three short days, there had been an unprecedented change of blood in the province. Moreover, the underground forces had almost been wiped out, leaving only a few extremely small groups, but they were also completely defeated.
During this period, Shangguan Guoqiang called me almost every day to share the good news. I was overjoyed when I heard it. Although the Ouyang family was still around, after the collapse of the Gathering Justice Gang, the Ouyang family had lost their right-hand men. It could be said to be a huge loss. The most obvious effect was the sharp decline of the various industries.
Although the Ouyang Family used to be a colossal existence, they were actually like many gears, and the existence of the Righteous Congregation was undoubtedly a lubricant, allowing the various gears to work better together.
Of course, there were many things that happened during this period. Compared to the underground forces that didn't have a good ending, the Blood Wolf Hall was a special existence. Not only was it not suppressed, but it also took the opportunity to absorb a lot of new blood. Of course, this group of people had gone through strict screening. At least they had a skill, and they were not like those hooligans who only knew how to fight.
Without a doubt, Leader Feng had the idea of clearing his name. After putting in effort step by step, he had basically achieved his expectations.
Moreover, the cooperative factory of the Black Mud Mask had already entered the production stage. I felt that it was about time, so I took the initiative to contact Hsieh Shih-chi and asked her to take some time to do a live broadcast. As the brand spokesperson of the Black Mud Mask, it was necessary to promote it on the internet. That way, we could further increase our popularity. After all, if we were to advertise on TV, the cost would not be small. Moreover, it would be troublesome to go through layers of verification. Most importantly, the youngsters nowadays almost didn't watch TV. They mostly used their phones and computers.
Therefore, I didn't intend to go on TV in the early stages of the promotion. Hsieh Shih-chi readily agreed to my invitation. Although her schedule was usually very full, and her working hours were also full, as long as she was willing, she could have the conditions to do a live broadcast even if she had less rest time.
As a girl who had personally tried the Black Mud Mask, she had already developed a dependence on it. If she didn't wash her face every day and only applied the Black Mud Mask, she would feel like she didn't have any makeup on.
Although Hsieh Shih-chi was a natural beauty, she still had to put on some light makeup to look flawless under all kinds of spotlights. However, after using the magical mask, Hsieh Shih-chi completely got rid of makeup and became a little fairy with no makeup on. This kind of self-indulgent feeling made her feel good every day, and she worked even harder.
After chatting for a while, I unexpectedly learned that Hsieh Shih-chi was currently in Beijing. It seemed that she was going to hold an award ceremony in the near future. After all, it was almost New Year's Day. Although it wasn't the traditional Spring Festival, many things in many fields were calculated according to the year of the New Year.
I didn't know if it was just an illusion or not, but since the last time we were alone in the closet, Hsieh Shih-chi's attitude towards me had become friendlier and more humble. At least, when she chatted with me, she didn't have the arrogance of a celebrity. Moreover, sometimes she sent me a voice message. Her voice was full of healing energy, and her laughter was like a silver bell, which was unusually infectious.
Because of her friendly attitude, I felt embarrassed. When I recalled what I had done to her in the Wang Group, I felt guilty.
On the night that she agreed to my request, Hsieh Shih-chi opened her live broadcast room on the platform. Not only that, but she also posted a status on her personal Weibo. Since this was the first time Hsieh Shih-chi had done a live broadcast, and the recently popular TV series had pushed the plot to the climax, she and the popular little fresh meats had fallen into great controversy. They just needed an "announcement".
That was why when Hsieh Shih-chi started her live broadcast, in just ten minutes, almost five million people had come to watch. Moreover, this wasn't the case with any prior promotion.
Moreover, when my sister-in-law and the others found out about this, they couldn't help but exclaim in disbelief. They rushed to me and asked, "How much did you spend? No matter what, I'm also a major shareholder of the platform, and I own almost half of the shares."
It seemed that for a popular actress like Hsieh Shih-chi, her first broadcast wouldn't be less than seven digits. Moreover, she wouldn't be willing to do it just because she offered a starting price.
