Chapter 357: Chapter 357
The next day, Rong City was overwhelmed with explosive news.
The citizens of Rong City were truly caught up in a relentless wave of unprecedented and shocking high-society news.
This news quickly overshadowed the "Junsheng President He Qimo’s affair" headlines.
Zhou Xiao clutched the magazines and newspapers, nearly crumpling them into pieces.
"Who exposed me ! Who’s targeting me! Are they courting death!"
Zhou Xiao was already fuming, her beautiful and delicate face flushed with anger, pacing back and forth anxiously inside the house.
Beside her, the maid Lili was so frightened she tucked her head into her neck, trying to breathe as quietly as possible.
Around them, the household staff and the office secretaries were all making calls.
Trying to find out who was bold enough to offend Mr. Zhou!
However, all efforts to investigate were futile.
Not to mention the broad and uncontrollable spread of information on the internet.
When it comes to pinpointing the initiator, unless one is truly in the field of media, who could precisely know where to start?
Currently, despite Mr. Zhou’s high status, always surrounded by people, and his word in administrative matters making a whole district comply.
Yet, in the face of immense power, nothing could be done, simply nothing.
He could only watch helplessly as the situation continued to evolve into the worst public opinion.
Seeking the government’s secretary for help involved going through the cultural bureau, the press, and publication bureau, then contacting media companies, followed by their offices, and finally their person in charge.
Such inefficiency in handling, even if every contacted agency could immediately halt the spread.
By then, the news was already old.
So, under the mentality of self-preservation and observing quietly, the indifferent and sly bureaucratic handling infuriated Mr. Zhou even more...
When the news reached Feng Chengjin.
Gu Zixuan was taking a nap in the neighboring room, while he was browsing knowledge about prenatal care online.
Upon hearing the report, he glanced at the degree of resolution, curled his lips into a smile, and refrained from further amplifying the impact to push Zhou Xiao to a dead end.
Opposite him, Qin Nuo reported, "The initial source of the news, we used an anonymous miscellaneous webpage, and everything was spread through the internet, with no personnel exposure. Even if Mr. Zhou eventually had someone point it out and traced it, he would only find an abandoned site and could do nothing."
Qin Nuo chuckled lightly, and the handsome, charming corners of Feng Chengjin’s lips also slightly curved.
Indeed, from data transmissions to using changed IP addresses, the entire operation was conducted through internet technology.
Fengyi Company almost encompassed a quarter of China’s top programmers; who could trace anything from programmers? Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI~Fire.net
Not to mention, even if ordinary people saw the program code, they wouldn’t understand it.
Whether it’s through email transmission or the method of pushing web link plugins, it’s safer than delivering news in person and trying to trace it would be like chasing a pipe dream?
Feng Chengjin hooked his lips downward as Qin Nuo observed him and tentatively asked, "Then... within the circle, should we maintain the heat of the spread, or just leave it be?"
Feng Chengjin pondered and said, "Don’t spread it further, just when Mr. Zhou suppresses the matter, find someone to bring it up subtly again."
"This..." Qin Nuo was somewhat puzzled.
After all, their president either acted gently or with charming unpredictability. He had never done something before.
Feng Chengjin was unwilling to explain, just lifted the corner of his lips again, and said, "Go, just do as I said."
Qin Nuo left the villa.
Got into a car, and soon disappeared on the outskirts of Pinghu District, heading to the Fengyi Company Building.
On the second floor of the villa.
Feng Chengjin stood up slowly with his arms crossed.
Standing in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, he deeply gazed outside, his fingers slightly curling, rubbing gently.
It’s not that he wanted to drag the matter so moderately, neither pushing people to the edge nor allowing them to cleanly escape.
It’s just, in today’s society, whenever someone wants to expose something, the first thing people think of is the internet, the most irresponsible spreading method, and even if someone traces it, without slander, chances of being traced are slim.
However, there’s a type of person whose efficiency is always a beat slower than society as a whole and likes to go through traditional formal channels.
Thinking of those easily questionable calculations.
And recalling the woman who once very secretly sabotaged him, whose face he couldn’t even remember.
The person who harmed Zixuan was not Zhou Xiao, but likely someone in public administration.
The weather turned colder, Christmas was approaching.
Feng Chengjin squinted his deep, obsidian-like eyes...
Being able to manipulate others indicates quite a high intelligence level on the other party’s side.
It seems, this time, we need to cast a long line to catch a big fish...
Yu Yuanshen was also closely investigating everything.
Hearing about the explosive news from Mr. Zhou’s family made him slightly dazed.
Inside the senior office of GIO Investment Bank.
The shimmering golden hue and the imposing coffee color adorned the president’s office with simplicity and sophistication.
On the sofa, Vice President Chen Si Heng clicked his tongue with admiration, "This affair in Mr. Zhou’s family truly shifted the entire circle’s public opinion in an instant."
Opposite him, Yu Yuanshen stirred his coffee, his deep-brown eyes gazing into the distance.
At the time when Gu Zixuan encountered trouble, Feng Chengjin mentioned finding a similar news piece to suppress it.
But at that time, He Qimo realized such similar news was hard to find.
Besides, even if they suppressed it socially, within the circle, the damaged reputation wouldn’t be restored.
Therefore, the most impactful solution was... taking that step...
Honestly, he was also moved back then, reassessing He Qimo’s feelings for Gu Zixuan over the years.
Now, that there is someone else to share He Qimo’s overwhelming infamy, he felt it was a good thing, and the indescribable awkwardness and pressure in his emotions eased considerably.
Yu Yuanshen remained silent.
After observing for a while, Chen Si Heng understood, "Are you thinking that President Feng has identified the person behind harming Miss Gu, hence the action?"
