Writing Web Novels In America-Chapter 303 - 306 Lehman?

So...

The legendary journalist didn’t switch over to HBO?

Wang Jian scanned the documents once more before handing them back to the other person.

Then, combining what was just said...

"He is unable to stand his ground in traditional media, so he turns to seeking a job himself?"

Hoping to exchange it for a shot at a high-ranking executive position at Twitter, which has some minimal media connections, using Viacom’s follow-up strategies?

No...

Wang Jian looked at the HBO station head and said, "There’s also his request to make a cameo appearance in a TV series."

Fuck!

Exactly which group did I offend this time to make this legendary journalist so confident?

The words "feminism," "equality," and "animal protection" flashed through his mind one by one.

"God damn freedom of speech! Damn political correctness!" Wang Jian thought hard but still had no clue.

"I could make a cameo," he pondered for a moment and decided to compromise, "However, I think Mr. Wood might still not be very familiar with the internet."

"You’ll need some time to familiarize yourself with the working mechanism of Twitter."

Alright, Wang Jian admitted that he wasn’t a tolerant person.

Compared to publicly supporting the LGBTQ community, immediately turning this legendary journalist who once disgusted him into an executive was even less acceptable.

"I will inform the technical department at Twitter to verify your account and give you the treatment of a star, a writer."

"If you can cause an uproar on Twitter once, that would prove you have the ability to adapt to the internet."

As for Twitter now, unless you have the backing of a big shot like Wozniak, it’s impossible to wield influence like television!

Wang Jian looked at Wood, waiting for his response.

Wood pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

One reason was that he realized Twitter users were becoming more diversified, no longer confined to just readers.

On the other hand, of course, he was very confident in his own abilities.

"If I already know the next moves of Twitter’s actual controllers and still can’t create a wave of public opinion, I might as well retire peacefully."

As he thought this, he dipped his finger in the coffee and wrote the word "Vatican" on the tabletop.

The Catholic Church?

Seeing this word sent a shock through Wang Jian’s heart.

As an atheist, he truly hadn’t considered this aspect.

"But not just me, many video games also cast the Church as the antagonist, right?" Wang Jian murmured to himself.

"Heh," Wood laughed in response: "Games and literary works are different."

"Their audience is smaller, and they have more immediate effects."

"But literature? There are many works more intricate and beautifully written than ’Gone with the Wind’."

"Yet, due to the year it was published, only ’Gone with the Wind’ became a world-renowned classic."

"With the development of the internet and the widespread of online literature, these works will surely become classics in the hearts of a generation as reader ages grow."

"In these classics, the Church often appears as the villain... you can imagine what the Vatican thinks of you." freёweɓnovel_com

This...

Thinking of the actions of religious zealots, Wang Jian couldn’t help but shudder.

Salman Rushdie was still living under a pseudonym and protection of the British government due to a global assassination order issued against him by a certain religion for his novel "Satan’s Poems"!

"Actually, you could portray the Church in a positive light like they did with Princess Diana’s autobiography," Wood offered his suggestion.

Wang Jian thought about it and shook his head.

Not to mention the influence of "Arcane Throne", the antagonists in the works on the website were primarily the Church.

The novels appearing in his mind right now were very hostile towards the Church.

"If we change everything, the workload will be too large, and it may not necessarily remain popular."

Besides, with Dan Brown’s "Da Vinci’s Code" existing, even if he went to cozy up to the Church now, it probably wouldn’t do any good.

Seeing Wang Jian’s expression, Wood gave it some thought and expressed his opinion.

"Then we’ll have to think of some other measures."

"By the way, Mr. Wang Jian, do you really not know about this information?"

"When I met with the Queen of England, I had already informed her in advance about Viacom’s possible next actions."

Saying this was partly to curry further favor with Wang Jian, and on the other hand, he didn’t mind disgusting the traitor.

Prince Charles...

Wang Jian frowned, "The entire British Royal Family adheres to the New Church and isn’t too fond of the Vatican either."

So, why would he keep that from me...

It wasn’t until a moment later that Wang Jian recalled his conversation with Prince Charles and vaguely began to suspect something.

"Lehman?" He showed a confused expression and murmured to himself.

At the same time, Old Lehman was sitting in the living room of his home, his face fraught with indecision thinking about Wang Jian.

Due to his father’s connections, he had certain relations with the British Royal Family and the Bush family.

The former President Bush’s eldest son had just confirmed his target recently.

But in this presidential election’s polls, Republicans were surprised to find that aside from their traditional strongholds, the rapidly rising Silicon Valley was very influential too.

However, influenced by President Clinton’s "Information Superhighway," people in Silicon Valley were clearly more inclined toward the Democrat Party.

The Republican Party urgently needed a "Technology Elite" to prove its support for Silicon Valley.

Wang Jian, due to his involvement in founding a "Charitable Foundation," had some connections with the Republican Party and thus was a significant target.

Besides the popularity of his works in Silicon Valley, rivalling even that of George Lucas who made "Star Wars", his identity as one of the founders of Twitter would make the Technology Elite feel a stronger sense of kinship.

While Lehman, a descendant of a Wall Street financier, might understand the economy, he couldn’t say the same for media.

"How did Wang suddenly become a figure like Chaplin, earning the public’s sympathy?"

"In that case, the proposal will never pass!"

"Though putting someone in a desperate situation is a good way to force them to take sides," his father, sipping coffee, said to Lehman, "you need to learn to adapt."

"You might want to contact Old Bush’s eldest son, the Governor of Texas, and seek his opinion."

"The Governor might be continually losing money in business, but in other aspects, he is quite intelligent."

"But what if he suggests continuing the pressure?" Lehman said, "I don’t want to be hostile toward Wang Jian."

"Then weigh the pros and cons and make your choice."

Old Lehman put down his coffee cup and slowly stood up, "Remember, we are Wall Street, the ultimate creatures of interest."

"In our dictionary, there should never be any non-negotiables."
