Chapter 66
[Ms. Mu Mu, I cannot find the person who posted these photos using the existing database. I apologize.]
"Mr. Chu, I'm sorry, our people tracked them overseas, but the other side released a lot of false data, which interfered with our continued tracking, and we've temporarily lost our leads. We can only continue to monitor the situation and wait for them to release the next photo before we can continue tracking them."
The system and Wu Mi replied simultaneously.
Chu Muchao replied to Wu Mi with a "Hmm, thank you for your hard work," and after hanging up, asked the system: "You couldn't find it either? That's amazing? Are you a hacker?"
Within the database connected to the mainframe, I am invincible; but in databases without established connections, my space is completely blank, making the most basic and simple method of searching online less effective.
Chu Muchao: So, although they posted it on a platform within our country, they didn't actually establish a connection with me or my surrounding environment?
That's right.
Chu Muchao: So what about the filming? The filming of me wasn't even filmed on location?
[The footage was taken using on-site equipment, but due to data errors, the person who took the footage cannot be located.]
Chu Muchao: I don't understand. The equipment on site filmed me on site, so whoever used the equipment is the one who filmed me? Isn't that how it works?
【No, that's not the case. Judging from the angle of the photo, it was definitely equipment used on-site. Analyzing the photo data also shows equipment used on-site, but when I traced it back in the database, I couldn't find any trace of it being used.】
Simply put, as long as photos are taken with this device, leaving traces on the device, even if they are deleted, I can recover the data from the device. However, there is no data on the device itself.
Chu Muchao: Surely the person taking the photo doesn't have magic powers too?
【Won't. 】
Chu Muchao took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the anger that had surged to the top of his head.
"So there's no other way now?"
Chu Muchao opened the skill panel: "Don't I have a single skill I can use?"
【Don't worry, Miss Mu Mu.】
[We've already alerted them, and they're impossible to track down now. I'll keep an eye out for you in the background, and when I see an update, I'll remind you to use magic to gather evidence and track them down. After that, hand it over to your secretary to handle.]
Chu Muchao: Okay, I understand.
-
With something weighing on his mind, Chu Muchao didn't sleep well all night.
The next morning, they went out to the airport.
On the plane, Chu Muchao took a nap wearing an eye mask.
I had just drifted off to sleep when I had a dream.
In her dream, she was sitting in a first-class cabin with only eight seats for eight people, but dozens of pairs of eyes appeared around her, staring straight at her.
They stared at her with malice, mockery, and ill intent, like a surveillance camera.
After waking up in a fright, Chu Muchao was unable to fall back asleep.
Seeing this, Xiao He quickly asked the flight attendant to bring him a glass of warm water.
"President Chu, Secretary Wu told me about the photos this morning. He updated me on the progress before he left. This incident happened suddenly, and our technicians weren't fully prepared. We alerted them and they got away. We won't let that happen again!"
"Currently, they have found some things from the existing data that they haven't deleted in time. They not only took these photos, but also secretly took photos of some female celebrities."
"If they show themselves again, our technicians are confident they can take them down in one fell swoop!"
Chu Muchao rubbed his eyes.
"Um."
*
This event was modified according to Chu Muchao's instructions.
The red carpet walk and media interviews were all arranged indoors, where the temperature was comfortable, and the site was prepared in advance to ensure safety and order.
As the president of the brand company, Chu Muchao was taken to the media area after walking the red carpet and gave a brief interview.
This was something we had discussed with her beforehand, and we had also rehearsed the lines in advance.
When facing the media, Chu Muchao calmly introduced the characteristics of the clothing for this event, as well as the brand's history and future prospects.
Finally, just as she was about to leave, a microphone was suddenly and quickly handed to her.
It was incredibly fast, only a few centimeters from her mouth.
Chu Muchao was stunned for a moment, then looked at the person holding the microphone.
The man, wearing a mask and hat with his press pass around his neck, asked, "Ms. Chu, you've reached the legal marriage age. What are your requirements for a marriage partner?"
Chu Muchao tilted his head slightly: "What?"
The man slowed his speech a little before launching into a series of questions.
"Now that you've reached the legal marriage age, what are your requirements for a marriage partner? How many children do you plan to have after marriage? Would you consider handing over management of the company to your husband during your pregnancy? If you get married and have children, how will you balance your career and life?"
"Now that you have a child, you probably can't keep appearing in public like you do now. So, will you let your husband manage the group for you?"
A reporter for Ikusa News.
The name was covered by a sticker.
Chu Muchao shifted his gaze upwards, looking into the other person's eyes.
"Do you ask other people about their marriage and children's balance when you interview them? Nobody trained you, and you didn't do your homework beforehand to find out what questions to ask when interviewing a senior executive of a corporation?"
Reporter: "Well, men can't get pregnant after all. There aren't many female CEOs. I really don't have any experience interviewing female CEOs. This is my first time interviewing such a beautiful female CEO. It would be good to learn some experience from Ms. Chu."
Chu Muchao smiled and said, "Then you do indeed have very little interviewing experience and lack ability. I suggest your company provide more training for its employees."
After she finished speaking, Xiao He and her bodyguard cleared a path for her.
Taking two steps forward, Chu Muchao turned back with a smile.
"We need to train our employees on interview skills and assess their competence, emotional intelligence, and IQ." Chu Muchao smiled and waved to the other cameras. "I also hope other media friends can help me convey this message. Thank you for your hard work."
[Let's give a hug to our poor Miss Mu Mu. Let's not get angry with this kind of person. (Cat hug.jpg)]
Chu Muchao: It's alright, but I didn't expect that person to ask such a question in such a grand setting, with fellow filming crew members.
Yes, that person was incredibly stupid.
Chu Muchao: I can only say that I haven't been able to gain the respect of the masses in this position. Most people only respect the MZ Group, but they don't believe I have the ability to manage this group.
Ignore societal prejudices.
Chu Muchao: What others think or say doesn't really affect me; I haven't reached that level of cultivation yet. I am a little angry, but they can't change the fact that I'm already managing the group. As for what I can achieve in the future, I'll rely on my own abilities.
【^-^ Yes, Miss Mu Mu, keep it up!】
Chu Muchao: Of course.
Upon entering the venue, Chu Muchao was led to his seat by staff.
Besides the relevant personnel from the group and brand, there were also people from the cooperative work and entertainment companies around.
After that, there would inevitably be several hours of socializing.
-
The brand invited quite a few celebrities this time.
In addition to brand ambassadors and regional brand ambassadors, several celebrities were also invited to participate in the event.
This includes Xin Qing.
Seeing Xin Qing's appearance again was something Chu Muchao hadn't expected.
That night at the party, most of the people who were brought along as companions were dressed in revealing and sexy outfits, and Xin Qing's attire was no exception.
But her temperament and appearance were pure and refined, making her stand out from the others.
Today's event, however, featured her wearing heavy makeup and a revealing short dress, which not only failed to showcase her charm and strengths but also made her appear unconventional and strange.
The song ended.
As the host came on stage, Xin Qing politely bowed and smiled as she walked towards him, but the host acted as if he didn't see her, passing by her and moving on to the next segment.
Xin Qing looked embarrassed.
But she left soon after.
As he stepped off the stage, he tripped over something and fell, looking quite disheveled.
The person at the table shook their head and said, "With so many reporters around, her fall was definitely filmed."
"Huh? Wearing such a short skirt, won't you expose yourself?"
Some scoffed: "Pshaw, maybe it's intentional. You need buzz to generate interest, you know?"
Chu Muchao recalled the trending topics she had been on recently.
It seems I haven't heard from them since; they must have been dealt with.
The incident with Xin Qing passed quickly.
The host called on Chu Muchao to come on stage and give a speech.
She spoke extemporaneously, introducing the brand and the concept behind the exhibits, naturally bringing up the design director.
The design director took the microphone and began to talk about the source of his ideas and his clever touches.
Finally, the design director said regretfully.
"It's a pity that our Miss Chu is unwilling to wear the dress I designed and walk the runway with the models, otherwise it would have been even more spectacular."
His voice, transmitted through dozens of speakers of various sizes in the venue, reached everyone's ears.
For a moment, some people in the venue started to jeer, while others fell silent.
Since taking over the company, Chu Muchao has gradually learned to manage his facial expressions.
On the surface, her smile was serene and gentle, but inside, she was cursing.
Chu Muchao picked up the microphone and spoke in the same regretful tone.
"Then you should have communicated with my agent earlier to discuss the contract for this event's runway show."
The design director laughed and said, "Miss Chu, you're so funny. You're the president of our company, why are you taking money from your own people?"
Chu Muchao maintained his smile: "This is the first time I've heard of a CEO having to work as a model for free, being assigned work by his subordinates."
The design director remained unfazed: "Oh dear, is Miss Chu angry? I was just joking."
Neuropathy.
When they can't get to the point, they use "joking" as an excuse.
The host tried to smooth things over with a laugh: "It seems the director greatly admires President Chu. Is President Chu your muse? Haha, thank you, President Chu and the director. Now, let's enjoy the fashion show."
-
Chu Muchao walked back to his seat.
The fashion show officially began.
She watched as models walked out, displaying their dresses.
There are one or two that are fairly well-designed.
The others, you could say, are extremely ugly.
It's ugly and impractical.
Some skirts are designed to be so narrow that they hinder the models from walking.
Chu Muchao asked Xiao He curiously, "Does this person's designs sell very well? Or is he very influential and popular in the designer circle?"
Xiao He replied, "In the early years, we designed several very popular series that brought significant and continuous profits to the brand. However, our designs in the last two years have not been as good, and our reputation online and within the industry has dropped considerably. Therefore, we arranged this event to increase our promotional efforts."
"..." Chu Mu laughed irritably, "Is it possible that it's not that the publicity is insufficient, but that it's just plain ugly?"
