Chapter 832 Need to grow a brain
The more she read, the tighter her brow furrowed. She said dryly, "We simply place each issue of the magazine on the plane and don't check its contents. As for why the magazine published such content, Miss Xia should ask the magazine's editorial department."
She said this with confidence. If the magazine really published such content, I certainly couldn't blame the airline. Xiao Shiqiu could just sue the magazine directly. But this matter had little to do with the magazine.
"The flight attendant is right. I thought so too when I first saw it, until I saw this one." I handed over the original magazine again.
It seems that the flight attendant did not tell the chief flight attendant two different things, but only said that the magazine contained content that was unfavorable to the STG president.
The flight attendant was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously, "Is there any difference?" She specifically looked at the covers of the two books.
"The cover is exactly the same," I said for her. "I'm sure it's the same issue. If it wasn't this one, I wouldn't have known there were 'custom editions' of magazines in first class.
You can compare it with reports about STG Group’s Xiao Shiqiu.”
Flight attendant Lin flipped through the pages quickly, her brow furrowing ever deeper, her expression turning grim. When she saw the ambiguous photos, her expression became extremely complex, and she exclaimed in surprise, "How could this be? ... This is truly unusual."
"As Xiao Shiqiu's fiancée, I have a few questions that require your company to explain."
I now felt vindicated. I unconsciously straightened my back and raised my voice. "First, who put these doctored magazines into first class? Second, how many passengers have seen these false contents? Third, how will your company repair the damage to my fiancé's reputation?"
The more I spoke, the more confident I became. I felt like I was the embodiment of justice, seeking justice for Xiao Shiqiu's unjust case!
Other people in first class looked over, even the white woman turned around to look, but she probably didn't know what was going on. She just knew that my voice was getting louder and I might be starting a fight.
As a woman, when she sees others arguing, she has to listen even if she doesn't understand.
Chief Flight Attendant Lin clearly realized the seriousness of the situation. "Ms. Xia, I'm not sure how this happened. I need to report this to the captain first. But don't worry, we will immediately ask the company to investigate this matter. Please give us some time."
I didn't want to be too aggressive, so I just kept a straight face and nodded stiffly. "Okay, I hope to get a reply before I get off the plane. That's because I have a good temper. If my fiancé saw it, your company would probably receive the lawyer's letter before I even get off the plane."
The flight attendant's eyelids twitched. Someone had tampered with the plane she was in charge of quietly. She was responsible for management negligence.
Luckily, it was just a magazine. If she had tampered with her diet, her career would have been ruined.
She quickened her pace towards the cab.
Huang Tianyi quietly nudged me: "Mengmeng, you can do it. You were so cool just now! You played the role of the wealthy young lady in the TV series so well. You even lifted your little chin so proudly!"
I rolled my eyes at her and said, "Why didn't I hear you were praising me?"
Ling Xiuzhi gave me a thumbs-up and said, "Sister-in-law, I really want to praise you. Your logic is clear, and your arguments are well-founded. You did a great job."
After his praise, I actually felt a little embarrassed. Huang Tianyi's mixed praise and teasing made me feel more at ease.
In fact, I racked my brains to come up with those three points just now. As the young lady of a wealthy family, it seems that it is impossible to take office without thinking.
I originally thought that Xiao Shiqiu was the storage place for my brain, but now it seems that I need to grow my own brain. Oh, my head is itchy, I need to grow a brain.
Less than ten minutes later, a middle-aged man in uniform came over, with the captain's epaulettes on his chest shining brightly: "Ms. Xia, I am the captain of this flight, Chen Zhiming.
Regarding the situation you reported, we have contacted the company headquarters.
He handed me a business card and said, “First of all, on behalf of the airline, I would like to express my sincere apologies to you and Mr. Xiao.
The company said it would seriously investigate the matter.”
"Captain, how did these tampered magazines get on board?" Ling Xiuzhi interrupted. "Shouldn't the airline give an explanation for this obvious oversight in management?"
Captain Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "According to preliminary information, this batch of magazines was only replenished yesterday.
We don’t usually review content for legitimate publications, but to have only specific articles altered like this… has never happened before.”
"So," I pointed out calmly, "someone has deliberately tampered with this flight. And their goal is clear—to be seen by today's passengers—that is, us.
I don’t know how many people have seen this false report yet.
Do you think someone is trying to harm your crew, or is it simply trying to ruin my fiancé's reputation?"
"Don't worry, we'll thoroughly investigate this matter," Captain Chen said sincerely. "I'll immediately have all copies of 'Business Elite' on board the flight."
He turned around and winked at the purser, then turned to us and smiled, "Miss Xia, please wait a moment. We'll update you on the situation as soon as we've collected all the magazines. I'll have my colleagues bring the menus. Take a look at what you can eat first, relax, and have a good rest. The problem will definitely be resolved."
The flight attendant was very considerate and brought us a few menus. Although we had eaten before boarding the plane, we were young and the desserts on the menu attracted our attention again.
I understand that people are reluctant to give and people are reluctant to eat. However, I didn't expect to catch the person who did something wrong on the plane. I just wanted to take the initiative and make the airline pay attention.
Now that our goal has been achieved, let’s eat and drink something first.
Just as we were happily eating and drinking again, the flight attendant came over to me and whispered, "Miss Xia, we have collected all the magazines. Now we are very sure that the magazines in economy class are all normal editions. Only the magazines in first class have been replaced.
Apart from you and your group, no one else has likely read this magazine. There was also a passenger who probably didn't know Chinese. I've seen her only flip through an English magazine. Negative news should be completely manageable."
I nodded, becoming even more certain that this incident was directed at me only.
At this moment, my phone vibrated. Xiao Shiqiu replied: [This episode is about an interview arranged by the PR department two months ago. If I hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten it.
The photos inside are all composites. The one of Si Kou Ting is a group photo from last year's company annual meeting.
