Zhu Wencong, before preparing to leave San Francisco, took Su Yanqiao to a local newspaper.
Before causing the stock crash, he had preemptively invested in the city's newspaper, using the power of public opinion to bamboozle the public into following his investments.
He then used the newspaper's influence to create a widely admired success story, James, thereby attracting all the attention.
Currently, no one has tapped into the potential of newspapers, nor does anyone believe that newspapers hold significant value.
After all, in this era, newspapers are mainly for attacking the authorities—here in the West, if you don't criticize the officials, the public won't believe you.
Even if you are a private newspaper, the public will still consider you the government's lackey, ultimately affecting the newspaper's circulation.
Zhu Wencong knew well the power of public opinion as a weapon and thus needed to keep it hidden, not too exposed.
