Ch 32: How Interesting
The camera director was completely overwhelmed and quickly contacted the head director to ask if they should shut down the live stream.
Unexpectedly, after a moment of contemplation, the head director actually chose to continue the live stream, “No matter who’s right or wrong in this, broadcast it to me completely.”
A heat wave from the heavens, don’t let it go to waste.
Things indeed went as the director expected. Many viewers in the live stream had already uploaded screen recordings to Weibo. The popularity of “Happy Family” quickly rose, and many gossiping netizens flooded into the live stream, wanting to wait for a result.
The camera director was practically balding, but a higher rank can crush anyone to death, so he could only agree.
Soon, the person in charge of the beach’s recreational activities arrived. He was a middle-aged man in professional attire, slightly overweight, with a smiling face like a Maitreya Buddha. As soon as he arrived, he shook hands with everyone and greeted them politely.
Of course, Fu Zimo looked down on a mere person in charge, but he was still in the entertainment industry and had to maintain his image, so he could only politely extend his hand with a smile.
In comparison, Mother Fu was much more direct. Not only did she not extend her hand, but she also snorted coldly and rolled her eyes to express her dissatisfaction and anger.
Fu Zimo’s eyes darkened. Avoiding the camera, he tugged at her hand to signal her to restrain herself a little.
Mother Fu didn’t know why she was so worked up. With a grand gesture, she shook off Fu Zimo’s hand and stepped forward to start berating, “How exactly do you select your employees? What kind of quality is this? Taking advantage of tourists using their position. Are you sure this is a legitimate project?”
“Oh dear, what are you saying?” The person in charge took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the fine sweat that had seeped out of his forehead, explaining in a seemingly casual manner, “Our Hengtai is a Fortune 500 company. How could we possibly do anything illegitimate?”
Hengtai?
In the country, this name can be said to be known to every household, even people who don’t pay attention to the business world have heard of it. Hengtai started out in real estate in its early days, once becoming an industry leader. Later, as the industry declined, Hengtai was gradually abandoned by the market, teetering on the edge of bankruptcy several times.
During that time, many large enterprises were waiting for Hengtai to go bankrupt, wanting to get a piece of the pie.
Unfortunately, Hengtai had a thick foundation. After receiving an investment, it began to vigorously advance into the tourism industry, and now it’s doing very well.
Learning that this was Hengtai’s territory, Fu Zimo’s heart tightened. He regretted not stopping his mother sooner.
As for Mother Fu, she knew about Hengtai. The villa they lived in was built by Hengtai, but she didn’t really understand how much power Hengtai actually had.
In the end, her social circle was too small, her horizons were narrow, and she thought she was amazing, but she didn’t know that she hadn’t even touched the threshold of the real wealthy circle.
“Are you saying I’m slandering you?” Mother Fu’s chest heaved with anger, and her cheeks flushed red. She pointed at the coach and said loudly to the person in charge, “Ask him, aren’t his hands being dishonest!”
The coach was also a reckless character. In front of the live stream camera, he sneered, “Do you think you’re a stunning beauty? Taking advantage of you? My wife is prettier than you, younger than you, and has a better figure than you. Why would I bother?”
“You!” Mother Fu was so angry that she couldn’t speak. After saying “you” several times, she turned to look at the person in charge, “Look at his attitude!”
The coach sneered. He was about to be wronged to death, so how could you expect him to have a good attitude?
The person in charge smiled on the surface, but cursed inwardly. It would have been fine if this had happened normally, but it just had to be broadcast live today. If it wasn’t handled well, it might affect Hengtai’s reputation, and his job would definitely be in jeopardy.
He looked at the coach with an official attitude, “Xiao Li, tell us about the situation at the time.”
Just as Xiao Li was about to speak, a voice came from the crowd, “Isn’t it always being filmed? It would be better to just watch the replay. Facts speak louder than words.”
Everyone turned to look. What came into view was a beautiful woman in professional swimwear, with a familiar handsome guy standing next to her.
Fu Zimo’s expression immediately darkened. How did Huo Xinghai and Gu Qingyin come? Were they here specifically to see them make a fool of themselves?
The person in charge noticed that there were also cameras following the two, so he understood that they were also guests on the show. He smiled politely, then looked at the Fu family’s camera director, “Can we watch the replay?”
Of course, the camera director wouldn’t refuse. It was also his first time encountering this situation and was a little confused, even forgetting about the replay.
“Look, look, we’ll watch it now.”
While they were checking the replay, in order to ensure fairness and impartiality, the live stream also played the replay footage simultaneously.
Under the high-definition camera, the footage recorded everything clearly.
At the beginning, the coach had been properly placing his hand on Mother Fu’s waist, until Mother Fu struggled and screamed out of fear, and the coach’s hand slid up a little, to the position of her chest.
But this was also understandable. As a coach, he certainly had to ensure the safety of the tourist. His hand sliding up was just a reflex. Otherwise, if the person fell, his responsibility would be even greater.
Most importantly, Mother Fu was wearing a life jacket.
The life jackets here are standard foam life jackets, lightweight, with great buoyancy, and 4 centimeters thick…
Everyone was silent, but the person in charge’s eyes lit up. If they could still say this was harassment, it would be too unreasonable.
Fu Zimo didn’t say anything with a sullen face, and Mother Fu’s expression was also a little stiff.
The person in charge coughed lightly and offered a way out, “From the video, it can be seen that this lady was very scared, so it’s normal to have a misjudgment. Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s just let this matter go, shall we?”
Mother Fu pursed her lips and remained silent, feeling extremely embarrassed in her heart. She now thought it was strange. How did things get to this point?
Fu Zimo also couldn’t understand what his mother was doing. He really couldn’t smile, so he could only nod and say, “I’m sorry, you’ve been troubled.”
The person in charge breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face became a little more sincere, “It’s what we should do, it’s the service industry.”
After exchanging a few more polite words, the person in charge left with the coach, Xiao Li.
Fu Zimo also left with Mother Fu. When passing by Huo Xinghai and Gu Qingyin, he rarely didn’t provoke them, but instead left in a hurry with a blank expression.
Probably because he felt embarrassed.
Seeing that the excitement was over, some of the viewers in the live stream left, but there were also some people who stayed behind to have a heated discussion about who was right and wrong in this matter.
Most people felt that the coach was an innocent victim and expressed deep sympathy. Their impression of Mother Fu wasn’t very good, but there wasn’t too much malice, after all, she was frightened. But in the end, she lost some of her public image. Some people also said that wealthy family madams are just pretentious, making a big deal out of nothing.
Gu Qingyin couldn’t see the comments. If she could see them, she definitely wouldn’t be stingy in helping to clarify.
Mother Fu wasn’t being pretentious, nor was she acting up, but was bewitched by the evil energy. Evil energy amplifies people’s emotions. Mother Fu was affected, which is why she did a series of things that lowered her intelligence.
The interest in Gu Qingyin’s eyes grew stronger and stronger. This small island was too interesting. In just half a day, she had discovered two unclean things.
She must ask Huo Xingye who the island owner is. Maybe she could earn some extra money.
