Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lin Hui’s plan was quite good, but Zhai Jing rejected it immediately.
“I’ve already withdrawn from the game’s operations. It’s not good for me to appear on camera again. Since the company has already issued a clarification, I think the players will understand.”
Lin Hui didn’t expect him to use this as an excuse. He immediately hung up the phone in anger and turned around to look for the operations team.
“You guys were responsible for verifying Zhai Jing’s social media account. Do you still remember his password?”
Lin Hui was planning to bypass Zhai Jing and use his social media account to clarify the matter. After the operations team knew of his plan, although they knew that it was not appropriate, Lin Hui’s expression was too gloomy. They did not dare to object and could only tell him the password of Zhai Jing’s social media account.
Lin Hui immediately logged in with the computer, but the result showed that the password was wrong. He wondered if he had entered the wrong password, so he tried again and realized that the system still showed that the password was wrong.
He frowned and asked the operations team,
“Are you sure this is the password?”
The operations team nodded.
“It’s indeed this password. We’ve logged in before.” Lin Hui did not give up and asked, “When was the last time you logged into this account?”
The operations team recalled.
“About half a month ago.”
After all, Zhai Jing was a carefree person. There were not many things that would trouble them, so they rarely logged into his personal account.
Lin Hui gritted his teeth.
“Looks like Zhai Jing changed the password himself.”
Presumably, he had already expected this to happen a day ago, so he had been
on guard against the company.
At this moment, Lin Hui even suspected that he had leaked the news that Zhai Jing had been kicked out of the operations team on the Internet. Otherwise, why would Zhai Jing be so calm and act as if it had nothing to do with him?
Regardless of whether his guess was right or wrong, in the face of the increasingly fierce public opinion on the Internet and Zhai Jing’s unwillingness to cooperate, he could only think of other ways to see if he could suppress the heat of the matter.
Therefore, he found someone to release news that a top male celebrity in the entertainment industry was suspected to be in a relationship, causing this incident to quickly occupy the hot search list, thus dividing the attention of many people.
However, Lin Hui had underestimated one thing. The fans of the game didn’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry. Therefore, when they saw the hot search, they would join in the fun. However, they would only join in the fun. They wouldn’t show too much enthusiasm and attention to the hot search.
Therefore, the passersby and fans were watching the gossip like crazy. After the game fans temporarily diverted their attention, and they returned to this matter. What made Lin Hui feel worse was that the netizens weren’t as gullible as before.
The top male celebrity who had never had any scandals or gossip news suddenly revealed his relationship? This move was obviously to divert the public’s attention.
Therefore, the fans of the game didn’t even need to analyze too much and directly blamed the game company. They believed that the game company must have felt guilty and used the relationship of the top male celebrity to divert their attention to cover up their bad behavior.
Hence, the gaming fans were even more certain that the people from Dahong Game Company had indeed done something to let Zhai Jing down. Hence, they gathered more gaming fans and stepped up their crusade against Dahong Games.
Don’t underestimate the power of gaming fans. When they were serious, they were many times more powerful than the fans of celebrities. Therefore, when they united, their power was undoubtedly huge.
The matter quickly stirred up to the point that even Ren Rong was alarmed. Hence, Lin Hui was directly called to the top floor of Dahong Company.
When he was brought into the CEO’s office by the secretary, Ren Rong was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the city.
When he heard the commotion behind him, he turned his head. He didn’t let
Lin Hui sit down as usual, but asked directly,
“When you decided to kick Zhai Jing out, did you expect this to happen?
Lin Hui could only bite the bullet and say,
“I expected it.”
Ren Rong crossed his legs and leaned against the desk, staring at him.
“Then I’m sure you’ve already prepared a risk plan. Can you tell me briefly how you plan to deal with this matter and cut your losses as soon as possible?” Faced with Ren Rong’s questioning, Lin Hui lost his tongue.
If he really had a practical solution, things wouldn’t have developed to this stage..
