Murdoch's "Media Empire State Building" News Corporation seems to be turning into a "dangerous building" due to the wiretapping scandal. The former CEO of its subsidiary News International resigned due to the wiretapping scandal and was arrested by the British police. The British "Economist" magazine commented that a giant who was once feared by almost everyone seemed to have become a "mime clown" surrounded by boos on the stage. Compared with "attacking cities and fortresses" around the world in the past few decades, Murdoch, now 80 years old, may be thinking about the next life issue: how to hold on to his media empire.

On the afternoon of the 19th local time, the Culture, Media and Sport Committee of the House of Commons of the British Parliament held a hearing specifically on the "News of the World" wiretapping scandal. Murdoch, his son James, and the former CEO of News International were questioned. This was the most high-profile hearing of the day. Murdoch's wife Wendi Deng sat behind her husband. Given the publicity of the matter, the hearing was broadcast live. It was in such a live broadcast that Wendi Deng was so fierce that she slapped a protester to protect her husband at the hearing, her voice was clear and loud! What happened? There are currently no corresponding reports in Chinese. The loose powder thinker describes this process for everyone based on English news reports.

At the end of the hearing, a dramatic scene occurred. A protester rushed over with a tray of what looked like shaving foam and tried to rub it on Murdoch. Murdoch's wife Wendi Deng, who was sitting on the back side, jumped up and defended her 80-year-old husband from the attack. She even hit him on the head, and a clear sound could be heard. The hearing was suspended for about 10 minutes before the protesters were detained. Murdoch was hit in the face with foam, wiped off his coat and finished the hearing. Comedian and self-proclaimed "activist" Jonnie Marbles claimed responsibility for the bubble attack on Twitter. As he pounced on Murdoch, he called him a greedy billionaire.

Wendi Deng jumped up to protect her husband at the critical moment, which shows the fierceness of Chinese women and is very powerful. Foreign "ladies" absolutely cannot behave in public. Murdoch also has the advantage of marrying a young wife, who can protect him at critical moments. Wendi Deng not only has a Yale MBA, but also has a super fast mind and a super fast body. Compared with the son sitting on the right side of Lao Mo, her performance was very "brave". Fans think that although Wendi Deng's behavior is a bit shrewish, and a woman who is not shrewish really can't do it, but she protects her loved ones out of instinct, which is still worthy of forgiveness and praise. The effect of this slap is actually very great, changing foreigners' views on China and Chinese women. In the eyes of Western men, Eastern women are weak and submissive. The live broadcast lets everyone see that Chinese women are tough! It is more of a deterrent to the Chinese than any aircraft carrier going out to sea. The news about Deng Daren spread quickly to the world on Twitter in the United States. The topics range from "Go Wendi" to "Wendi Deng. Tiger Wife!"

At the hearing, Murdoch and his son sat in the front row, and Wendi Deng sat in the back.
