Chapter 274 Entertainment News Naming Rights
There was a large TV screen hanging in the staff cafeteria, which was broadcasting entertainment news. Ding Xin's beautiful face appeared on the screen. Everyone looked at the screen at the same time, and from time to time turned back to look at the two people sitting by the window.
The atmosphere became subtle and awkward.
Jiang Man also heard the news. Just as he was about to look up, he heard a low and firm voice from the other side: "Concentrate on eating."
Jiang Man frowned, glanced at him and said nothing.
The news was reporting that Ding Xin stayed overnight at a male star's house, and then brought up her previous scandal with Su Heng, making a detailed comparison of her assets and looks with that male star, jokingly saying that it's difficult to have your cake and eat it too.
The restaurant was silent, everyone lowered their heads to eat, and the occasional sound of chopsticks hitting plates seemed particularly harsh.
As one of the parties involved, Su Heng appeared unusually calm on the surface, but his expression grew increasingly gloomy. Anyone who was compared to someone else would feel unhappy. Furthermore, in his opinion, that person was simply not comparable to him! Most importantly, such comparisons were meaningless!
Jiang Man finished her meal quickly and stood up to leave, but Su Heng suddenly grabbed her and asked her to sit down again.
She looked confused.
Su Heng wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, opened his deep black eyes, and glanced at her calmly, "Why bother making yourself look like a deserter because of those boring people and things?"
Jiang Man was stunned, then looked at him with amusement: "Mr. Su, if I remember correctly, this incident seems to be caused by you, right?"
Su Heng fell silent, lowering his eyes. He then stood up, walked to the TV, picked up the remote, and turned it off. No one in the restaurant dared to speak, only concentrating on eating.
Su Heng returned to his seat and called Lin Ze.
"Buy the naming rights to Apple TV's 12:15 entertainment news."
After the call ended, Jiang Man was still in shock. Is this the legendary "rich and willful, unreasonable"?
Normally, when faced with this kind of situation, the first reaction would be to send a lawyer's letter to warn the other party, right? But Su Heng's cleverness was that he did the opposite. He bought the other party's naming rights, ensuring that they would never dare to say anything nonsense on the show again! Not only that, he also had to rack his brains to come up with good words to maintain his and his company's image!
Jiang Man was really convinced.
Su Heng walked forward and took her hand. "It's time to replace the TV at home. Come with me to the nearby shopping mall to have a look."
Jiang Man passively followed his pace, "Is it necessary? I think the current TV is pretty good!"
"Your vision is too ordinary. You just believe everything others say is good. You don't have any opinions of your own." He said calmly, "The picture on the TV at home is blurry. I can't even tell what's on. I want to get a bigger and clearer screen."
Well, only President Su can appear so unrestrained and nonchalant when doing this kind of indirect criticism.
The restaurant behind him was completely silent.
After stepping out of the company gate, Jiang Man turned to look at him, "Mr. Su, you were really a bit childish just now."
Su Heng's expression remained gloomy. "Why are news reports nowadays so shameless?"
She shrugged and smiled, "You can't blame the media entirely. After all, the audience loves to watch it."
He snorted coldly: "To put it bluntly, I just can't stand seeing others doing well."
Jiang Man thought about it and agreed, "This is also the herd mentality at work."
Su Heng turned to look at her, "What about you? What do you think?"
She raised her eyebrows slightly, "You mean the news?"
"Asking knowingly."
Seeing his awkward look, Jiang Man couldn't help but laugh: "Seeing you care so much, I have no interest in the news itself."
Su Heng glanced at her, reached out and gently pinched her cheek: "You are so bold, you even dare to laugh at me!"
Jiang Man smiled and dodged, "Don't blame me for this. From the beginning to the end, I was an outsider."
Su Heng glared at her and said nothing in a depressed tone.
In fact, she was right.
Jiang Man thought he was joking, but he actually ordered a super-large screen TV! If he moves back, it will probably take up an entire wall in the new house!
Su Heng then asked her to replace other household appliances. They were all the latest and most expensive models! When swiping the card, Jiang Man felt sorry for him.
"There's no need to buy something so expensive, right?" she muttered softly.
After putting away his wallet, he turned around and said, "Are you saving money for me now? It's a good idea, but a man's money is for his family. You don't have to feel burdened. I'm responsible for making money, and you're responsible for spending it."
As they were talking, a young couple stood behind them. Upon hearing this, the girl raised her hand and punched her husband. "Listen to what they said! Look at you! You think a refrigerator worth over 10,000 yuan is too expensive! Are you still a man?!"
The boy complained, "It's fine as long as the refrigerator works. Why buy such an expensive one? As long as it can keep food fresh, that's all I need."
"All men are the same! Why is it that only you are such a loser?!"
Jiang Man was so embarrassed that she quickly pulled Su Heng away. The young couple behind them were still arguing. She glared at him and said, "I know you're rich, but you can't spread your rich people's theories all the time!"
Su Heng felt a little innocent after being scolded by her, but he just stared at her without saying a word, and finally just lowered his head and compromised.
When they returned to the company, Xiao Zheng immediately came over and said excitedly, "I heard about what happened at noon! President Su is so manly! Isn't this a declaration to the world that your position as the queen is unshakable? Letting those mistresses continue to cause trouble will only bring shame upon themselves!"
"Please! Sister Zheng, keep your voice down!" Jiang Man immediately covered his mouth, her cheeks slightly red. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Actually, Ding Xin has had a really hard time too."
"Are you okay? You're actually sympathizing with your love rival!" Xiao Zheng glared at her and scolded her, "Put away your unnecessary sympathy! She's not as lowly as you think. I wonder how comfortable she's been! Even if President Su is gone, there will always be people like President Zhao, President Li, and President Wang!"
Jiang Man thought about it and realized that this was not wrong. After all, Ding Xin was such a dazzling existence. Compared to her, she was naturally the focus of attention and had no shortage of men pursuing her. Her thoughts like this were really unnecessary.
Despite being very busy, Su Heng still turned down some work and appeared outside Jiang Man's department in the afternoon, going to the kindergarten with her to pick up Xuanxuan.
Before the end of get off work, Jiang Man, under tremendous pressure, went to ask Manager Lin for leave.
"Okay, okay! No problem!" Manager Lin smiled and personally escorted her out of the office. As if afraid no one else could hear, he said loudly, "Xiao Jiang, you and President Su can go ahead without worrying about the work. I'll let someone else take care of it."
