Chapter 223 You are not worthy yet
"Ah Cheng, I have high hopes for you and I don't mind telling you this. After joining the company, study hard and accumulate more experience. The future is yours."

In fact, Ma Rongcheng was shaking with excitement, but he didn't dare to shout out for fear of interrupting Mr. Fang.

"Thank you. Thank you Fangsheng. I will try my best."

"Haha, don't be nervous. Do you understand what I just said?"

After asking this, Ma Rongcheng was no longer nervous. He looked at the boss with firm eyes.

"Well, Mr. Fang told me not to regard Wong Yuk-lang and his ilk as rivals, but to learn more from the Japanese and develop our own animation industry in the future."

"Haha, that's a good summary. You really have the talent to be a president."

"Thank you Mr. Fang for the compliment!"

"It's not really a compliment. Although I like you, you should not be complacent. Once you join the company, take solid steps one by one. The future will not let your efforts go to waste."

"Well, I'll remember Mr. Fang's advice."

······
Mr. Fang was quite happy that his new company had recruited a new general right after its establishment.

But there is one person who is facing a formidable enemy and is now like an ant on hot pot.

Wong Yuk-long had no idea how such a small pond in the comics could attract such a super prehistoric crocodile?

In the three years since its establishment, Yulang International has almost monopolized the entire Hong Kong comics market with abundant funds and a large number of recruits.

Apart from that damn Shangguan Xiaobao's "Bruce Lee" series, which still has some fighting power, all you can see are monsters and insects.

Originally, he planned to expand his business empire after conquering Shangguan Xiaobao, such as entering the publishing industry, or learning from Liu Juncheng to publish pornographic publications.

But he never expected that such a huge monster would appear before he even made a move.

It would be a lie to say that I am not afraid.

Even though Wong Yuk-long has extraordinary talent in the comics world, he only has one head and two hands.

However, Fang Hexuan, the legendary richest man, can spend a lot of money to recruit other awesome comic book authors in Hong Kong.

In the past, he used a lot of dirty tricks to suppress other colleagues who stood up to threaten him.

But now, instead of suppressing DreamWorks Animation, the emerging company, they are likely to be stabbed in the heart by it.

Why do I say so? The current market value of Yulang International is only 500 to 600 million Hong Kong dollars, which makes it an absolute giant in the comics industry.

But in the entire Hong Kong stock market, it is just a little lamb. Anyone with bad intentions can bite it at any time.

Wong Yuk-long himself seldom uses fair competition methods, so he is naturally worried that Fang Hexuan will not abide by the rules and will directly launch a dimensionality reduction attack to snipe his company in the stock market.

I dare not even think about the consequences.

On the day DreamWorks Animation put out a recruitment advertisement, Wong Yuk-long held a high-level meeting in the company.

At this time, he was almost panicked. With no other choice, he thought about relying on everyone's collective wisdom to see if they could come up with a solution.

Normally, Wong Yuk-long has the final say in the company and never thinks of asking for advice from his subordinates.

"Boss, that's Fang Hexuan. Two years ago, he had a fortune of nearly 300 billion Hong Kong dollars. Many people say that his current wealth may have doubled."

Huang Yulang was so angry at his subordinate's words that he immediately started cursing.

"Asshole, am I the one who pays you or Fang? If you are so afraid of him, you don't have to come to work tomorrow."

The other senior executives were immediately silent, and they all lowered their heads to look at their shoes. "You want to be mute, just like that bastard just now, let's see if you can speak up today."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt a huge amount of pressure. Even though they didn't want to speak up and be scolded, they had to speak up.

"Mr. Huang, why don't we communicate with the industry association first and jointly issue a statement condemning Fang Hexuan for disrupting the order of the industry."

"Do you think the Fang guy will be scared? But this is also a solution. Write it down. Who else?"

"We can use the power of public opinion to criticize Fang Hexuan for bullying the weak."

".Anything else?"

"Boss, I think that facing a strong enemy, the best strategy now is to find one or more strong reinforcements for our company."

".Who do you think is suitable?"

"As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Although Mr. Fang is the richest, he has offended many people in Hong Kong, such as Mr. Li from Cheung Kong Holdings."

"Well, that's a good point. You come and sit in the seat that bastard just took."

"Haha, thank you boss, I will definitely work harder!"

······
Wong Yuk-long was desperate and was trying every possible means. He planned to try out all the suggestions that were put forward after the meeting, regardless of whether they were reliable or not.

There was no way. The pressure Fang Hexuan put on him was too great. If he was not careful, all his efforts over the years might be wasted.

The day after the meeting, Wong Yuk-long made numerous phone calls to newspapers, even visiting some of them in person.

Unfortunately, given Fang Hexuan's huge fame and influence in Hong Kong, most influential newspapers such as Ming Pao, Hong Kong Tiger, Overseas Chinese Daily, Financial Daily, and Sin Pao did not dare to take over his business.

As for the newspapers with mainland backgrounds such as Wen Wei Po, Ta Kung Pao and Hong Kong Commercial Daily, once they heard Wong Yuk-long's purpose, they did not let him continue speaking.

Finally, a few newspapers that were not afraid of causing trouble, such as Sing Tao Daily, Asian Wall Street Journal, Commercial Daily, and Tiantian Daily, agreed to cooperate with him.

Some newspapers, such as the "China News" and "Hong Kong Times" established by the Beggars' Gang on Wa Island, nodded repeatedly to express their willingness to report the story just by hearing that it was related to Fang Hexuan.

Wong Yuk-long ran around for the whole afternoon and gained a deeper understanding of Fang Hexuan's terrifying richest man effect. At the same time, he was also glad that there were still some knowledgeable people who did not go along with the crowd.

The next day, six newspapers launched attacks simultaneously, criticizing Fang Hexuan for brazenly entering the comics industry as the richest man in the country, causing panic in the industry and looking very greedy.

It’s no wonder that Hong Kong citizens used to see news unfavorable to Fang Hexuan in the gossip and entertainment pages.

This time someone publicly accused him of lacking business ethics, disrupting industry order and undermining social stability, which is indeed quite fresh.

It’s not that everyone hates Mr. Fang, the richest man, although there are people like that. They just want to be a spectator and watch the show.

Fang Hexuan hadn't noticed it early in the morning, but it was his editor-in-chief of Oriental Daily News who called him.

"Boss, six newspapers on the market seem to have colluded to publish articles condemning you."

Fang Hexuan was also a little surprised, but he didn't care much. After thinking about it, he said to his editor-in-chief:

"Please leave me space in the evening paper. Since they have no shame, I will not be merciful."

After hearing this, the editor-in-chief was very excited, like a civet who had eaten a melon, and immediately agreed.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, many office workers bought a copy of Oriental Evening News and saw a big headline on the front page.

"You are not worthy to be my opponent!"
