Chapter 32 Report
About five minutes later, Chen Jiayan got up from Qin Shang's arms.
She pretended to be tearful but forced herself to remain calm as she said, "The most important thing right now is to quickly calm things down. It's just that the paparazzi have been leaking this information repeatedly, and I'm afraid netizens won't believe us even if we clarify again. Or maybe we should contact PR to remove the trending posts? Of course, we can use gentler tactics and slowly bring the trending posts down."
Qin Shang realized that he was not familiar with the entertainment industry, so after thinking about it, he agreed with Chen Jiayan's approach and called the public relations department to ask them to remove the trending search and delete the post.
But he had little patience and ordered the public relations department to settle the incident as quickly as possible.
Qin's company usually cooperates with major platforms, and its public relations efficiency is also very high. Soon, the hot search terms and posts on major forums were deleted completely.
Qin Shang breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this and said to Chen Jiayan, "These netizens are really annoying. I don't know what this has to do with them, but I will let them know what capital is."
Chen Jiayan was very happy to see the public opinion calm down, but when she heard Qin Shang's arrogant words, she subconsciously had a bad premonition.
But now that things had come to this, she couldn't say anything more. She just smiled and said, "That's good. I can rest assured now. I'll make you your favorite cake when we get home."
Qin Shang also smiled confidently, "Okay, I'll wait."
The two of them were affectionate for a while before closing their eyes and resting.

At the same time, Gu Nansheng and Huo Sinian also received news that Qin had withdrawn the trending search.
Huo Sinian looked at Gu Nansheng and said, "This trending search has been removed. Do you want me to have someone replace it with a few more terms?"
Gu Nansheng shook his head decisively, "No need for that. Netizens' mouths are not so easy to cover up. Sometimes the more you cover your mouth, the more likely it will spread."
Huo Sinian didn't know much about the entertainment industry, so naturally, he paid little attention to the PR tactics and consequences commonly used in the entertainment industry. However, public opinion manipulation often had similarities. He thought about it briefly and figured out the reason. He smiled and said, "Okay, then we'll wait and see what the netizens can do."
And things turned out just as Gu Nansheng expected. Because the hot search was removed, the entries were bombed, and the posts were deleted, the netizens who were originally just watching the show were completely enraged.
If an entry is blocked, they will create a new one. If a post is deleted, they will create a new post to expose the issue.
Even though Chen Jiayan and Qin Shang's names were set as sensitive words, they were still able to post and expose the truth using various code names.
[How disgusting! Not only did he cheat on his wife, but he even tried to cover his mouth.]
[Capitalism is really disgusting. They can delete posts if they want, and bomb entries if they want.]
[The more they delete, the more I want to expose them. They must be feeling guilty and afraid that people will find out something, so they keep deleting posts.]
[cjy and qs are really a pair of dogs and bitches, I wish you 99, lock them up. ]
As the exposure deepened, netizens gradually became dissatisfied with exposing only Qin Shang, and even began to expose the Qin family. After all, they were using the Qin family's power to cover up the truth.
[The Qin family has recently been acquiring a large number of overseas assets. Does this count as transferring domestic assets? Are they planning to flee?]
The quality of the properties developed by Qin's company is truly rubbish. The neighborhood I live in now was built by Qin, and it leaks constantly, but there's nothing I can do about it; I bought it anyway. I'll be disgusted by Qin's company forever. What a rubbish company!
[He has recently stopped construction on several of his projects and delayed delivery. Could it be that he has a funding problem?]
I've been to several Qin's stores and I feel like there are some issues with fire safety.
[Isn't Chen Jiayan's company also a tech company? I looked it up and it seems her products and projects are suspected of defrauding government subsidies.]
[As expected, there are so many problems once I dig deeper. I even want to report it to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and the Fire Department.]
The report was initially just a joke from a netizen, but the listener took it seriously. Since there are so many people on the internet, many of them impulsive, it didn't take long for someone to actually call and report it.
The Qin family in various places has been complained about dozens of times by netizens. After receiving so many complaints, even though netizens did not have any solid evidence, considering public opinion, the authorities still sent an investigation team to investigate.
So when Qin Shang brought Chen Jiayan back to the Qin family mansion, what he saw was the furious Qin father.
Qin's father didn't care that Chen Jiayan, an outsider, was present at this moment, and roared directly, "You idiot, I don't care if you like to play with women, but do you remember that you said it wouldn't affect the company? Do you know what netizens are doing now? They reported Qin's because of your nonsense!"
It would be fine if Qin's company had no problems, but no company can withstand an investigation. Qin's father can already imagine how many problems the investigation will reveal. Even if it cannot shake the foundation of Qin's company, it will be enough to give them a headache.
Qin Shang was also frightened by his father's rage. How could Qin's be reported all of a sudden? What did his womanizing have to do with the company?
His steps were a little unsteady, and his words were a little halting. "Dad, what do you mean? I don't understand. I had the trending searches removed and the posts deleted."
When Qin's father heard Qin Shang's speech, which was still out of context, he became even more furious.
He just couldn't understand why he had been smart all his life, but his son was so stupid, even though he had taught him personally for several years.
He waved his hand, feeling helpless. "Can't you find out by looking it up online?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Shang immediately took out his cell phone and started searching, and his expression became worse and worse.
These netizens were so angry that they went to expose Qin Shi Huang and report him for deleting his post and removing his trending search?! They are so crazy!
Chen Jiayan, who was standing by, felt a surge of emotion in her heart after hearing the conversation between Qin's father and son.
She was much smarter than Qin Shang and had roughly guessed what had happened without even going online.
She had a bad feeling in her heart when Qin Shang confidently announced that he had removed the trending search, but she only thought that netizens would rebel and scold them even more harshly. Who would have thought that they would actually report Qin!
And since Qin had been reported so many times, she didn't think Chen would be spared.
She didn't know how many problems Qin's had, but she was very clear about Chen's business situation.
And the most important thing is that Chen’s company is currently in a critical stage of IPO. If it is reported and any problems are found, it will be all over!
In an instant, Chen Jiayan's face turned pale and she no longer had her previous composure.
At this moment, Chen Jiayan's cell phone rang. She looked down and saw the two big words "Dad" on the phone screen.
She trembled as she answered the phone, then heard Father Chen say in a panic, "Yan Yan, someone just reported our project for fraudulent subsidies, and the Industrial and Commercial Bureau is here to investigate. If it were just the fraud, it would be fine, but I'm afraid they'll find out we fabricated the financial statements for the IPO. That would be the end of us."
Everything was heading in the worst direction, and Chen Jiayan used all her strength to calm herself down.
Facing these reports, Qin will most likely recover. However, if her small company fails to go public this time, it may face bankruptcy!
At this point, Qin Shang finally understood the whole story. He looked up at his father and said hesitantly, "Dad, I really didn't expect those netizens to be so probing. If I had known earlier, I would never have confronted them."
As he said this, he turned his head and looked at Chen Jiayan angrily. At this time, he had already forgotten what he said on the plane about being nice to Chen Jiayan. He just wanted to find someone to take the blame for himself.
He angrily said, "Dad, it's all Chen Jiayan. If it weren't for Chen Jiayan, how could I have been exposed by netizens? If it weren't for the previous exposure, how could I have asked the public relations department to delete the post and remove the trending search, thus offending netizens? Dad really blames her!"
Seeing that his son was still trying to pass the buck, Qin's father was very disappointed. This kind of way of doing things would never make him a qualified leader of a group.
But Qin Shang is his son after all, so he naturally cannot hold Qin Shang responsible, but he would not care so much about other people.
And this time, it was indeed because of Chen Jiayan that their Qin family suffered such an unexpected disaster.
Of course, Qin's father would not embarrass a young girl, but such a culprit is no longer suitable to be with Qin Shang.
He looked at Chen Jiayan with a gloomy expression. "Jiayan, there are some problems with your Chen Corporation. If you can't handle it properly, your IPO plan will be ruined. During this time, you should focus on handling the company's affairs and don't have to come here."
Chen Jiayan has always been smart. Although Qin's father didn't say it explicitly, she understood the meaning of his words.
She was stunned for a moment, unable to believe that Qin's father actually asked her to break up with Qin Shang just because of this matter.
She wanted to refute Father Qin. What on earth did this have to do with her? Wasn't it his son who couldn't control his lower body?
However, she knew that there was a huge gap between her and Qin's father, and Qin's father was obviously threatening her with Chen, and she had no power to fight back against Qin's father.
Chen Jiayan clenched her hands involuntarily, using all her might to suppress her inner anger. She forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Uncle Qin, for the reminder. It's true that we should take care of our own company first. In that case, I'll take my leave now. Goodbye, Uncle and Aunt."
After saying this, she tried her best to maintain her dignity and even bowed to Qin's father and mother before turning around and leaving.
A gentleman's revenge is never too late, and one day she will trample them under her feet.

Gu Nansheng has been paying attention to the direction of public opinion on the Internet. She knew that netizens were very powerful, but she did not expect them to be so powerful that they could actually shake the normal operations of Chen and Qin.
Moreover, Qin and Chen look so guilty, so I guess both companies have serious problems. This is really a pleasant surprise.
The matter between Qin Shang and Chen Jiayan has come to an end, and it is her turn.
She looked at Huo Sinian and said with a smile, "Qin Shang and Chen Jiayan should have no time to deal with me now. We can issue a clarification announcement."
*
Netizens were very excited about the Qin and Chen scandals, and they would occasionally come up with some golden sentences. They had no time to care about Gu Nansheng's insignificant negative news.
At this moment, Huo’s official Weibo account issued a statement.
@Huo's Group Co., Ltd.: Ms. Gu Nansheng is a shareholder of our group. She is a partner and long-time friend of our president Huo Sinian. She has never worked for a foreign company in the five years since graduation. Please do not spread rumors. Our company will pursue legal action against those who spread rumors.
