Chapter 570: Chapter 570 Reputation Damaged Chapter 570: Chapter 570 Reputation Damaged “Yes, yes,” Zhou Xinyu said shyly, closing his mouth.
This ti, his grandfather had really invested heavily and planned for a long ti, so there shouldn’t be any major problems.
Old Master Zhou’s wrinkled face was covered with a sinister shadow.
Having the heir sabotaged, Old Master Zhou naturally couldn’t swallow his pride. He had been careless before, but this ti he was determined to make Qiao Yun beg him through tears!
The network behind Qiao Yun was indeed formidable, but the Zhou Family wasn’t one to be bullied at will!
He was determined to make Qiao Yun pay the price and to let her clearly understand that even if she was Professor Qiao and the person in charge of Tianqi Research Institute, she could not simply trouble the Zhou Family.
Zhou Xinyu hesitated, “But, will people really make a fuss over such a small thing…”
Old Master Zhou interrupted him, “You’re just too young. How the outside world has hyped up Professor Qiao, do you really believe that these people truly respect her? Tianqi Research Institute has only collaborated with Shengqiao Group for many years, almost monopolizing all technological advances, suppressing the developnt of countless enterprises. Who knows how many are green with envy and internally unbalanced. It’s just that they haven’t found her mistakes, haven’t grasped her weaknesses. Once she makes a mistake, even a very small one, there will be plenty of people eager to take her on.”
His sly, experienced eyes narrowed, “Not to ntion the general public. These common folk don’t care what the truth is. What they want is the thrill of pulling a deity from their pedestal to satisfy their own vanity. Keep in mind, human nature contains both good and evil.”
A cold sweat broke out on Zhou Xinyu’s back, “Grandfather, you are truly formidable.”
Old Master Zhou scoffed coldly, “Without so tricks up one’s sleeve, how do you think I’ve managed to preserve the Zhou family’s century-old foundation?”
Originally Zhou Xinyu had been quite worried about the Zhou family falling into crisis because of this incident, but after hearing Old Master Zhou’s analysis, he found it very reasonable.
The hesitation in his heart completely vanished without a trace.
He made a phone call, “Proceed with the plan.”
…
While everyone was still celebrating the arrival of the New Year,
a post appeared on the internet.
Soone leaked that the intelligent butler model developed by Tianqi Research Institute and distributed by Shengqiao Group had suddenly exploded, causing severe burns to the owner who was hospitalized.
The leak was not without basis.
The whistleblower posted a surveillance video.
In the video, the intelligent butler, which was cleaning, suddenly emitted white smoke, followed by a burst of fire, all within a few seconds.
With a loud bang, it exploded, and the raging heatwave engulfed the entire room.
The whistleblower also claid this was not the first instance, and to their knowledge, there had already been more than a dozen cases, only to be suppressed by capital.
They accused Professor Qiao, who developed the product, of seeking fa and must be held accountable for the whole affair.
The intelligent butler had been launched at the beginning of the year and was a household-type robot designed to help busy workers alleviate dostic chores.
The price was very affordable, so as soon as it hit the market, it was beloved by the masses and even sold out.
Nobody expected such a problem to arise now – it could actually explode!
This caused consurs who owned this product to worry.
[This is so scary. I’ve just got my hands on it, and now this problem occurs. I’m too afraid to use it now.]
[But this is developed by Tianqi Research Institute, how could there be a problem, is the blogger paid to sar her?]
[Exactly, you ignorant commoners, do you know who Professor Qiao is? The smartphone you’re using, the computer, even the gas you play might all be developed by her.]
“It definitely must be improper operation that caused this. What does the explosion have to do with Professor Qiao? It must be the owner’s problem.”
Consurs expressed their anger. What do they an, they are consurs, is it so hard to want peace of mind?
Just because the developer is Professor Qiao, should these dangers be ignored?
The comnts beca polarized; so even began to question whether Professor Qiao truly existed, after all, no one had ever seen her.
So the focus shifted from the product issue to discussions about unmasking Professor Qiao.
So even went to Shengqiao Group’s official Weibo to make a racket, demanding Professor Qiao co out and apologize! Her product has killed soone; the person responsible should co out and explain!
Ordinary people, not having experienced scientific research, couldn’t imagine what kind of prestigious figure Professor Qiao was, and how much she was admired. In their hearts, they are consurs and Professor Qiao is the developer.
Now there is a problem with the product, naturally, the developer should co out and apologize.
So people, curious about Qiao Yun, also started to stir the pot, wanting to take this opportunity to make Qiao Yun co into the public eye, to see what this legendary person really looks like.
The issue blew up quite a bit, with even international websites promptly updating this news, after all, Professor Qiao was also quite famous overseas.
Initially, it was just a blogger’s exposé, until later, a few more people claiming to be victims erged, with their smart ho assistants also exploding, describing it as if it were true.
Others questioned whether, aside from the smart assistants, other products might also explode?
After all, they were all developed by the sa research institute, by the sa person.
Consurs who had purchased smart assistants, influenced by public opinion, also feared their own would have issues, and scrambled to return them during the night.
The issue finally landed in front of Pei Ya.
This trivial matter wouldn’t shake the foundations of Shengqiao Group, but if not addressed, it would indeed have so impact on Qiao Yun’s reputation. Although it wouldn’t lead to societal disdain, her future products would certainly face consur skepticism.
And seeing this group of idiots questioning Qiao Yun, the headstrong Pei Ya, furious, slamd his fist on the table at his subordinates, “Do I have to teach you what to do? Control the comnts and delete the wrong public opinion first, stabilize the situation! Have the tech departnt contact those injured by the explosions, and recall the problematic smart assistants for inspection.”
“Chairman, the PR departnt is already deleting the posts slandering Professor Qiao, but there are too many people involved; public opinion is hard to manage, and there appears to be a group deliberately leading the narrative.”
Pei Ya’s expression turned cold, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, “They want to stir up trouble, huh…”
Is it competitors taking advantage of the situation to kick us while we’re down?
Or was this planned from the very beginning?
Pei Ya realized that the matter wasn’t simple, opened the contact group to order the unfilial children to investigate, but the group was already buzzing with activity.
“I’ve already hacked a thousand accounts, who else, who can top that?”
“Haha, a thousand? I’ve done ten thousand.”
“…”
“I won’t lose! Just you wait!”
“The first ti in my life I hit the trending searches, and it’s for being doubted.”
“Speaking of which, why didn’t we just pay to take over? Then we could control the trending searches as we please, hahaha…”
“That’s a good idea.”
Pei Ya: …
