On the other side, after arriving at a safe place, Qin Si asked someone to meet Li Quan, from whom he learned that the trial of the case was still in the initial investigation stage. After knowing that he was not involved in the case, he returned to the company with peace of mind.
But the person waiting for him was someone he didn't want to see at all.
"Why are you here?"
Qin Zun said calmly, "You've gotten the company embroiled in lawsuits and negative public opinion, causing its stock price to plummet. The directors have been trying hard to invite me back to the company to deal with the aftermath."
Qin Si was furious: "You know exactly who secretly messed up the company. If you hadn't brought the police to the company, the company wouldn't have been caught up in such a big negative storm!"
"As one of the largest companies in China, Tiansheng faces countless negative events and unexpected situations every day. Our responsibility is to deal with the aftermath of events, not to complain about them. This is the most basic skill for a manager."
Seeing Qin Zun's calm demeanor and his condescending manner, Qin Si felt like gnashing his teeth. From childhood to adulthood, no matter where he was, everyone could only see Qin Zun, with him as the center. Naturally, Qin Si was dissatisfied. He pointed at Qin Zun and said through gritted teeth: "Don't forget, I am the one in charge of Tiansheng now. You have no right to tell me what to do!"
Qin Zun shrugged and said, "Okay, then. I'll wait and see how you handle this public opinion crisis."
To resolve the crisis, Qin Si called in the PR manager and issued an order: "Contact someone immediately to remove the trending search terms. Buy out all the newspapers that published the news about the company. Then, publicly issue a clarification, saying the photo was photoshopped and the previous news is untrue. Then, privately contact the reporter who broke the story and pay them hush money."
"I understand, Mr. Qin."
It was thought that this operation would stop the company's stock price from falling and stabilize the confidence of shareholders. However, as soon as Tiansheng's public relations department posted a clarification notice on Weibo, someone came forward to identify themselves and claim that their clarification was false news. He also had a lot of photos taken at the time, and he posted all the photos and videos taken at the time online.
This action caused an uproar on the Internet. As the popularity continued to rise, more and more people began to discuss the photos. Some bored netizens even started to dig deep into the previous incident in which the manager of Tiansheng sexually assaulted several female employees.
Seeing the situation escalate, Qin Si was extremely anxious: "Have the online discussion posts been deleted?!"
Secretary: "We have contacted netizens to delete some of the information and warned them not to continue the discussion. However, the reporter is unwilling to delete the photos and information and refuses to assist us in issuing a clarification announcement."
"Unscrupulous paparazzi like this just want money. Let her name her price, and I'll pay her whatever she wants. She must suppress this news!"
The secretary was a bit embarrassed. "We've already contacted her privately once, but she's unwilling to delete the photos online. And we found out that the last report about Manager Li that was reported online was also from this TV station called M Agency..."
Qin Si was a little surprised. "Oh? Is that true? It seems someone is deliberately trying to disrupt the company. Go find a few people and have a good 'communication' with them. Make sure they change their minds. If they don't listen, get rid of them."
......
When Yang Li was returning home from get off work and entering an alley in front of the community gate, suddenly, three or four burly men with unfriendly looks on their faces jumped out from a car parked on the side of the road.
"Are you Yang Li?"
Yang Li looked at the men with a wary look: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
The leading man laughed heartily and, with a single glance, slowly surrounded Yang Li, forcing her into the alley. "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you've gotten yourself into trouble. How dare you go against Tiansheng? Are you so bold? Tell me! Who sent you here?"
Yang Li was stuck in a corner and questioned loudly, "I'm just reporting everything I saw. This is my professional ethics as a journalist. I'm not sent by anyone. It's you, Tiansheng, who have lax management, condone the oppression of employees, and are corrupt. I really suspect that Tiansheng's good reputation over the years was just a product of yourselves!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Since you won't cooperate with us, there's nothing more to say... You guys, take her away!"
After saying that, several big men grabbed Yang Li's arms from the left and right, forcing her to stuff the person into the car.
"Where are you taking me in broad daylight?! Let me go!"
Yang Li struggled desperately, but facing two burly men, how could she possibly resist? In desperation, she could only shout, "Help! Help! Help!"
Unfortunately, no one passed by and no one heard her cry for help. Yang Li had to try her best to save herself. When she was about to be put into the car, she refused to step into the car.
The man's patience was almost gone, so he raised his hand and slapped Yang Li a few times, knocking her unconscious.
......
Qin Zun looked up at the dilapidated and old community in front of him, and wondered, "Are you sure we're in the right place?"
Just from looking at the outside, you can tell that this community is very old, at least thirty or forty years old. Would a reporter working for a well-known TV station really live in such a place?
Assistant Zhou replied, "Yes, I confirmed the address before I left. This is the community we are looking for."
After receiving a positive answer, Qin Zun had no choice but to put aside his doubts and said, "Lead the way."
Assistant Zhou followed the address, entered the community, and came to the door of a unit. From a distance, he saw a group of people huddled together, pointing at something upstairs. Looking up, he saw thick smoke billowing out of there.
"Why is the house on fire?"
"Everything was fine half an hour ago. How did such a big thing happen suddenly?"
"That location looks like Xiao Yang's. We need to notify her immediately!"
"I don't know if there's anyone at her home right now. I need to find someone to put out the fire quickly..."
As soon as Assistant Zhou saw the location of the burning house, he felt something was wrong. Before he could say anything, Qin Zun had guessed everything and immediately ordered, "Hurry up and save them!"
After saying that, the two of them immediately pushed through the crowd of onlookers and ran towards the place where the fire was raging.
