Chapter 237: Chapter 238 The Third Step Scandals A female host next to him smiled and said mockingly, "Someone approached me and offered a higher salary. I joked and asked how much they could give. When they gave a number, I shook my head and said, ’Do you know my salary? It’s double what you offered.’ The poacher was dumbfounded and asked, ’Is ABC still recruiting?’ Haha, that was hilarious." The female host finished, and the hosts and the reporter laughed together. Offering less than the current salary to poach someone was embarrassing. The camera returned to the studio. The audience could tell the two anchors had laughed heartily, as their smiles hadn’t faded. This wasn’t news, it was blatant mockery and ridicule. The third step was to add insult to injury and mock mercilessly. New York City Henry was in action. He targeted Harvey Zola, NBC’s vice president responsible for program planning, production, and coordinating channel management. He held significant power, ranking third in NBC. Harvey’s car left the company, and he glanced at the still present protesters, cursed, and quickly drove away. In a small manor in the suburbs, This was his private retreat. He bought it secretly, and even his wife didn’t know about it. Harvey Zola took a pleasant shower, donned a robe, and started reading Playboy magazine. Not long after, a car drove into the villa and stopped outside. Harvey Zola looked out the window and saw a young, beautiful woman get out of the car. Anyone from NBC would recognize her as a new host who had been with NBC for just over six months. The woman entered the villa, "President Zola, can you really arrange a solo show for me?" "Of course, you know I have the authority." "Can I know what kind of show?" "ABC has extended its broadcast time, so the president requires more program hours. The planning department has come up with several educational programs, mimicking ABC’s ’Makeup Time’ and ’Perfect Kitchen.’ One of them is a childcare show where a nurse teaches new mothers how to take care of their babies, change diapers, breastfeed, treat hiccups, eczema, and so on. I think it’s a good fit for you. What do you think?" "I think being the host of this show is suitable for you. This is a good opportunity. What do you think?" "But I don’t know anything about parenting?" "These are not problems. Go to the hospital and learn for two weeks. When we record the show, we will find a nurse to teach you. Anyway, It’s just to fool the women watching TV." Harvey Zola said, extending his hand towards the woman."I’ve done what I promised, and now it’s your turn to fulfill your promise." The woman struggled briefly, then started undressing, and the two went wild in the villa room. Little did this NBC vice president know, everything that happened with the woman was recorded. ... The next day. New York Record. There are over 5,000 newspapers in the United States today, and the New York Record is just one of the less prominent ones. Mainly distributed in New York and its surrounding areas, it has a daily circulation of only twenty to thirty thousand copies, originally silent and unknown. But this morning, the New York Record reported a shocking piece of news. The news was placed in a very prominent position on the front page. "NBC Vice President Involved in Sex Scandal with Young Female Host." "Our reporter received a tip off from an insider that NBC Vice President Harvey Zola, under the pretense of launching a new program, lured a young female host who had joined NBC Television for half a year into bed." "The informant said that NBC is adding new programs internally, with Vice President Harvey Zola responsible for program planning, production, and coordinating channel management, all tasks handled by him." "Yesterday afternoon, Harvey Zola drove to a small villa in the suburbs, and half an hour later, Savannah, a young female host who had joined NBC for half a year, also drove to the villa. Harvey Zola promised to arrange a new program for Savannah in exchange for her body, and then the two engaged in intimate relations." The newspaper also wrote: "The informant stated that he has more crucial evidence. If anyone needs it, they can contact him to purchase it, but the price is not cheap." Although the New York Record is a local tabloid, it still has tens of thousands of readers. Once this report was released, it immediately sparked public opinion. The incident spread more and more widely. This event also brought some fame to the New York Record. NBC Broadcasting Company quickly became aware of this matter. As soon as work started, the president called Harvey Zola to the office and threw the New York Record in front of him. "What exactly is going on, Harvey? Can you explain this?" the president asked with a stern face. Harvey Zola glanced at the newspaper, his face turning very ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, "President, this is completely slander. I didn’t do this." "Slander, I hope that’s the case. The newspaper says the informant has more crucial evidence. If they produce photos, what will you say then?" the president said in a deep voice. Harvey Zola was momentarily speechless. "Harvey, I can give you some buffer time, but if the resolution is not satisfactory and it affects NBC, you should know the consequences," the president said. Harvey Zola nodded with difficulty. Suppressing this matter is not easy. Harvey Zola knew that if it was just text evidence, he could still argue. If there were photos, it would be completely nailed down, and he would be finished. The key now was to find the informant. If he had the evidence, no matter how much it cost, it had to be bought. Unwilling to come forward himself, he had a friend call the New York Record, but was told that several other newspapers and TV stations had already contacted them, including major media like the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Columbia Broadcasting System, and ABC Television.
