Lin Qiu was so angry that he couldn't speak. Why was he trending on social media again?
I accidentally scrolled into the comments section, and the netizens were quite sarcastic and mean.
The drama involving the Lin family is even more captivating than a TV series.
[I knew something was missing. Turns out, President Lin wasn't trending last month. Now it feels more like it.]
[I'm dying of laughter. Mrs. Lin actually brought all those illegitimate children into her home before; now it seems she's just short of bringing in all those mistresses, concubines, and other children too.]
[If all else fails, you shouldn't run a company. Just come and work in the entertainment industry. Your acting skills are better than everyone else there.]
Haha, I love being friends with you netizens; your words always warm my heart.
[The mouths of today's netizens are so poisonous that even licking them could cause poisoning.]
Lin Qiu was panting heavily, he was furious. He asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you remove the trending topics? Shouldn't you have removed them as soon as you saw them?"
The assistant rolled his eyes on the other end of the phone. Anyway, Lin Qiu couldn't see it. He had been Lin Qiu's assistant for so many years. Besides the high salary, he was also very patient. With that kind of patience, he would succeed in whatever he did.
The assistant said, "I've already asked the PR department to remove the trending topic. We pay to remove it, but they just pay to bring it back up. There's nothing we can do about it."
In the past six months, the public relations expenses spent on Lin Qiu alone have amounted to a small fortune. Recalling the PR department's attitude, the assistant whispered a reminder: "President Lin, the PR department already has complaints about you. You've already spent a lot on PR."
"Bullshit, how much company money could I possibly use by myself? Are they just making excuses because they can't handle things themselves?"
The assistant rolled his eyes so hard they almost popped out of his head. He pulled out another phone, which showed the expenses the public relations department had sent him: "President Lin, your public relations expenses this year have already reached 120 million, and that doesn't even include this one."
"So many?" Lin Qiu was incredulous. How could he use so many by himself?
The assistant nodded: "This number is correct, Mr. Lin. You were frequently trending on social media in March, April and May, and you were even trending twice in August. These are all relatively large expenses. The public relations department has compiled the rest into documents. If you have any questions, I can send you the documents."
Money is hard to earn and life is tough. His entire lifetime salary might not even equal Lin Qiu's public relations expenses.
Lin Qiu shut his mouth, feeling a little guilty: "Let them settle this matter, and I will try my best not to cause trouble."
He also knew that the company's directors had some reservations about him. If it weren't for his son... his daughter's abilities, he might have lost his position in the Lin Group long ago.
"I understand, Mr. Lin, but there's a problem with the public relations department."
"What's the matter?" Lin Qiu had a very bad impression of the public relations department; they spent so much money and still couldn't get his business done.
"If the other party continues to pay for trending topics this time, and they can't remove them, can they simply leave them there?"
Lin Qiu's eyelids twitched; this familiar action reminded him of Qi Zhiyang.
This morning, Lin Zhiluo left the Lin family in anger. Could it be that this trending topic was also orchestrated by Qi Zhiyang to vent Lin Zhiluo's anger?
He thought for a moment and said to his assistant, "Let the PR department handle it. If they can't remove it from the trending topics, then the entire PR department should pack their bags and leave."
The assistant responded and hung up the phone. He pursed his lips. Now their company's public relations department was among the top three in the industry. He couldn't find any public relations personnel anywhere to ask them to pack their bags and leave.
Lin Sheng watched Lin Qiu make a phone call downstairs and snorted coldly. He had wanted to hand over the Lin Group to Lin Jiayue, but one by one, these incompetent ones jumped out.
The company's current size is all thanks to Jia Yue, but in the end, all of this has become Lin Simo's achievement.
He had long since seen through the abilities and character of these younger generation members and had given up hope, but he did not expect that Lin Qiu would still want to take advantage of that girl, Luo Luo.
They didn't even consider how much pressure Luoluo would face joining the Qi family. Luoluo hadn't enjoyed any preferential treatment from the Lin family, yet now they wanted her to create value for the Lin family. If the Lin family were in Lin Qiu's hands, it would definitely be finished.
So over the years he has invested in another fund, not much compared to the current Lin Group, but if the Lin Group goes bankrupt in the future, this fund will not let them starve, but it will definitely not let them live a luxurious life again.
Lin Qiu hurriedly left Lin Sheng's residence; the only thing he could think of now was to find Lin Zhiluo.
No one but Lin Zhiluo could make Qi Zhiyang let him go.
Just as Lin Qiu was rushing over, Qi Zhiyang's eyes lit up, and he immediately called his parents to bring Bai Sixing over as well.
Lin Qiu likes to use intimidation tactics, doesn't he? Well, let him experience what that tastes like.
Lin Qiu rushed to the villa across the street, and this time he was not stopped like Lin Simo.
He couldn't help but feel smug inside; after all, he was Lin Zhiluo's father, and they wouldn't dare do anything to him.
Lin Zhiluo was still wary of her father.
However, he was shocked when he entered the villa. Unlike the grand villas outside, the interior was decorated in an antique style. As soon as he stepped into the room, he felt that it was very different from the outside. People seemed to be more energetic here.
"Hahaha!"
A man's hearty laughter echoed from the living room.
Lin Qiu frowned. This voice didn't sound like Qi Zhiyang's. Could there be someone else here?
As he approached, he saw other people sitting there. He recognized some of them: Qi Zai, the former president of the Qi Group, and the two elderly people sitting in the main seat, who were undoubtedly Qi Zhiyang's grandparents.
Seeing him approach, Qi Zai smiled and nodded: "So it's Mr. Lin. I didn't expect Luo Luo to be your child. I never thought we'd become in-laws."
Lin Qiu nodded: "Yes, I didn't expect Luo Luo to be so lucky as to become husband and wife with President Qi."
He stood awkwardly in the living room. Qi Zai and Qi Liangcai exuded an imposing aura, naturally possessing the presence of superiors.
The Lin family originally wanted to rely on the Qi family, but now that he's standing while these people are sitting, he has no advantage at all; in fact, standing is quite awkward.
Stand still! He suddenly realized that these people were deliberately trying to embarrass him.
He left the Lin family this morning because he was standing, and now that he's standing, he naturally has the same feeling that Lin Zhiluo had this morning.
He clenched his fists, feeling resentment towards Lin Zhiluo. He never expected that she would even disregard her own father.
The Qi family members all knew that they had called Lin Qiu over to support Luo Luo, and even though Lin Qiu's face was as black as ink, they pretended not to see it.
