I Know Everything

Chapter 25: Are you for real?

The Mercedes parked in front of roadside newsstand. The Chen family father and son sat on the car with each a copy of 'Renmin daily' as they stared at it with a livid face.

On page eight, there was an article with a title, 'The new era's true feeling—read 'A Plain Bowl of Noodles' to feel it'.

Alright.

Everybody knew what kind of status the Renmin Daily had.

They had taken the lead to report 'A Bowl of Plain Noodles' which was equivalent to adding a very strong protector to the small noodle shop.

Otherwise if people started to slander the small noodle shop that represented the spirit of 'A Bowl of Plain Noodles' when they just finished reporting it, wouldn't they smacking the face of Remin Daily?

Then, Chen Pinchao casually looked for people in his noodle restaurant but nobody dared to help him face against the small noodle shop.

Not only that, as Chen Pinchao tried to use his relation to find people to make things difficult for the small noodle shop but the people ran so fast that they could fly. 

It meant that from now on, Chen Pinchao had completely no way to shut down the small noodle shop anymore and he didn't dare either.

They thought about eating such a big loss but in the end they had to swallow it, yet the Chen family couldn't help but feel sick as if they ate a fly.

Another reason why the Chen duo's face was unsightly was because of Chen Huan's threat.

The fact that Renmin Daily reported about Chen Huan was like giving him a shield but it wouldn't have much impact on the Fragrant Pavilion business.

 If it was only this, Chen Huan request of the Fragrant Pavilion leaving Lin'an would be simply a joke.

But Chen Huan said that he would have an important TV interview next month and since today was Renmin Daily, the TV interview might just be Huaxia TV station!

Otherwise it couldn't be compared to Renmin Daily.

If the Chen family didn't follow Chen Huan's request, he would say something bad about the Fragrant Pavilion during the interview with Huaxia TV!

It would definitely lead to various inspection and sanction after such a big media reported about them. At that time, it would be very hard for the Fragrant Pavilion deal with. If we excluded Lin'an, the Fragrant Pavilion had around a hundred restaurants in Jiangdong! 

"Dad, it won't go that far!" Chen Zhisheng stuttered, "It's only a report, what can they do? It's not like it's the government directly criticizing us!"

"You better not underestimate it." Chen Pinchao smiled bitterly, "A government inspection itself won't have much negative effects but it could be used as proof! But if Chen Huan starts to badmouth us on the internet and tarnish us in the future, the people will think he's right at the first glance! Why? Isn't it because the Huaxia TV presented it on this angle?

Let's not mention if the Huaxia TV host will say it or not, as long Chen Huan said it during the interview! As long it is in the broadcast, it would prove their attitude as those words won't be there without their approval!"

"Then Huaxia TV will broadcast whatever he says? Are they really so obedient?" Chen Zhisheng said in indignation.

"It wouldn't be the case if it was any other time but Renmin News gave 'A Bowl of Plain Noodles' the spotlight, how can the Huaxia TV go against them?" Chen Pinchao shook his head.

"Not to mention Chen Huan is very smart and he won't be too fierce but he will definitely choose his words wisely and involve our Fragrant Pavilion! I can guarantee you that the people who watch the interview will have a deep impression of it!"
