She knew that someone was definitely behind this.

Without a doubt, it could be Zhao Fei.

Lin Fan remained calm, as if he had expected Zhao Fei to do this.

He smiled, a slight smirk playing on his lips.

If Zhao Fei wants to play dirty tricks, let him play them too hard.

Qihang Technology immediately issued an official announcement, making a solemn statement and condemning the online rumors.

At the same time, videos and evidence of the arrest of commercial spies were released.

In the video, the spy confessed to his crimes, saying that he was instructed to steal Qihang Technology's core technology.

The evidence is conclusive, and the truth has come to light.

Public opinion suddenly reversed.

Netizens realized what was happening and began to condemn Zhao Fei as despicable and shameless.

"So it was Phytium Technology that was behind this! How shameless!"

"Support Qihang Technology and severely punish those who spread rumors!"

"Companies like Phytium Technology should go bankrupt!"

Phytium Technology's reputation has once again plummeted, making it a pariah.

When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down.

Former partners of Phytium Technology, seeing that the company was failing, came to terminate their contracts and demand compensation for their losses.

Phytium Technology was already on the verge of collapse, and now it's even worse; nobody cares about it anymore.

Zhao Fei was abandoned by everyone and utterly desperate.

He was like a stray dog, hiding everywhere; all his former glory was gone.

Lin Fan's side ushered in a new era of glory.

He was invited to attend the International Chip Industry Summit, where he was to give a speech and showcase the new technology of the "Morning Star" chip.

This is the highest recognition for the "Morning Star" chip and Qihang Technology.

Representatives from the world's leading chip companies, experts, and journalists were present at the summit.

Lin Fan, dressed in a suit, walked onto the stage in high spirits.

He introduced the performance and technology of the "Morning Star" chip to the world in fluent English.

He spoke clearly and logically, and was full of confidence.

The audience erupted in applause.

The "Morning Star" chip has won over everyone with its performance.

Many international chip giants want to cooperate with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan has shone brightly on the international stage, earning respect for China's chip industry.

Zhao Fei saw a report about the International Chip Industry Summit online.

He saw Lin Fan standing under the lights, being admired and praised, and he was extremely jealous.

On what grounds?

Why is Lin Fan so smug while I'm so miserable?

He was unwilling to accept it and resentful.

He wanted to destroy everything Lin Fan had, to make Lin Fan taste the bitterness of defeat.

He took another risk and bribed hackers to attack Qihang Technology's official website.

Hackers exploited a vulnerability to gain access to Qihang Technology's official website system, altered the webpage content, and caused some disruption.

Qihang Technology's official website was temporarily down.

The technical department immediately activated the emergency plan and worked tirelessly to repair the damage.

When Lin Fan found out, his face turned cold, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes.

Zhao Fei is truly incorrigible.

The technical team quickly retaliated, fixing the official website in no time and finding the hacker's IP address.

After investigating, it was discovered that the mastermind behind it all was Zhao Fei.

The evidence is conclusive.

Lin Fan handed the evidence over to the police.

This time, Zhao Fei can't escape.

He will face even harsher punishment.

Zhao Fei panicked, completely panicked.

The hacking is about to be exposed, and the police will be here soon.

He wandered around the office like a headless fly.

We can't just sit here and wait to die; we have to run.

Where can it run to?

Several names flashed through his mind quickly; they were all friends he used to hang out with.

Now, perhaps we can help him out.

He picked up his phone, his fingers trembling slightly, and dialed a number.

The phone rang a few times before it connected.

"Hello, Mr. Li, it's me, Zhao Fei."

His voice was ingratiating, hoping to gain some favor.

The person on the other end paused for a moment, seemingly not quite understanding.

"Zhao Fei? You still dare to call me?"

The other person's voice was impatient, even disgusted.

Zhao Fei's heart sank, and a bad feeling welled up inside him.

"Mr. Li, I'm in a bit of trouble right now and I'd like to ask for your help."

He forced himself to speak, lowering his tone.

"Help? What help do I have to you?"

The other party chuckled and refused outright, "Don't forget, you're a pariah now. Anyone who gets involved with you will be in trouble. I don't want to have anything to do with you."

After saying that, he hung up the phone, decisively and cleanly.

Zhao Fei held his phone, feeling as if he had been doused with cold water.

He couldn't believe that his friends, who used to fawn over him, were now so heartless.

He was unwilling to give up, so he dialed a few more numbers, but the result was the same.

Everyone avoided him as if he were a plague.

Some people hung up immediately without saying another word.

He was utterly desperate; he realized that everyone had abandoned him and no one was there to help him.

All the past glories have vanished like bubbles.

He sat down abruptly in the chair, his eyes vacant, as if dead.

It's over, everything is over.

At Qihang Technology, the situation was completely different; everything was thriving.

With the crisis of the website attack over, everyone in the company breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Yuyan acted decisively, and the emergency plan was activated quickly. The technical department worked overtime, and the official website was restored to normal immediately.

Lin Fan focused on collaborating with major international companies.

Everything went smoothly.

With the new production line in operation, the output of the "Morning Star" chip increased significantly.

Good news came from the marketing department: the "Morning Star" chip was in short supply, and orders from both domestic and international markets were pouring in.

Qihang Technology's performance is getting better and better, and its stock price is soaring, making it a leader in the domestic chip industry.

Everyone was happy and busy, full of hope for the future.

No one expected that Zhao Fei was already at his wit's end.

Based on the IP address, the police quickly located Zhao Fei's hiding place.

Outside the abandoned factory, the sound of sirens broke the silence of the night.

Zhao Fei was hiding in a corner of the factory, munching on hard bread by the dim light.

He hadn't slept for two days; he was unshaven and looked haggard, a far cry from his former CEO self.

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps were heard, followed by the sound of police shouting.

"Zhao Fei, you're surrounded! Surrender now!"

Zhao Fei's expression changed; he knew it was all over.

He tried to run, but found police everywhere and nowhere to hide.

He screamed helplessly like a trapped wild animal, but was eventually arrested by the police.

The court held a public trial for Zhao Fei.

The list of charges is astonishing.

Intellectual property infringement, false advertising, malicious defamation, hiring sabotage, spreading rumors online...

Each of these charges is enough to make him suffer.

In court, Zhao Fei continued to struggle, trying to argue his case and deny his guilt.

However, with the evidence right in front of him, his words were utterly powerless.

The court ultimately sentenced Zhao Fei to prison for multiple crimes and imposed a hefty fine.

As the gavel struck, Zhao Fei deflated like a punctured balloon, collapsing to the ground.

He knew that what followed was a long prison sentence.

The once-glorious chip boss is now a prisoner, a truly lamentable situation.

As Qihang Technology has developed, it has also attracted the attention of more competitors.

Some established chip companies felt threatened and began to unite to try to suppress Qihang Technology.

They've used every means imaginable: technological blockade, market suppression.
