Chapter 457: Sudden change, strong suppression

Seeing that the female assistant finally listened, Zhao Qingtian snorted coldly and said, "Go and deal with it!"
"I want results!"
"And it's a satisfactory result!"
"Otherwise, just go back to Xiaoxiang to guard your old house!"
Hearing Zhao Qingtian's blunt warning, the female assistant quickly stopped her previous reverie.
She responded with a trembling body, "Yes. Uncle."
Then, she walked out of the office quickly and jogged all the way to the public relations team who were in a meeting to deal with the crisis!
This team is composed of the most elite members of the compliance system, product promotion system, legal system, and public relations system of the Zhao Group headquarters.
It represents the Zhao Group’s top crisis response capabilities.
This team was forcibly recruited by Zhao Qingtian through several phone calls after he learned about this matter.
At that time, the female assistant did not quite understand Zhao Qingtian's approach.
After all, in her opinion, although this matter was important, it did not seem to be important to this extent.
Although it involved Zhao Qingtian's family, it did not involve Zhao Qingtian.
Such a powerful team could easily smooth out the Zhao Group's subversive public opinion crisis, but now it is only being used to deal with this incident.
It feels like using an anti-aircraft gun to kill a mosquito.
Moreover, she didn't even know the other party's identity or situation. She was so sensitive that the female assistant always felt that Zhao Qingtian was making a fuss.
However, just now in the office, when she saw Zhao Qingtian getting so angry, the female assistant suddenly realized one thing: no matter whether she thought this matter was important or not, as long as the boss thought it was important, that was enough!
She also knew that her careless attitude must have been discovered by her boss, which was why there was a banging in the office!
Therefore, she must be proactive and make this matter a success!
Thinking of this...she pushed open the door of the conference room.
In the conference room, elites from several departments were busy.
The sound of telephones and keyboards continued.
Everyone frowned and devoted themselves to their work nervously.
The female assistant who had acted like a punching bag in front of Zhao Qingtian before, now acted like a queen here.
She waved her hand and called the heads of the four department groups, then asked, "What is the situation now?"
Several responsible persons looked at each other and began to explain.
“Now the various media have got it.”
“All platforms have also completed their public relations.”
"It's almost impossible to find out who is behind this."
After hearing what the responsible persons said, the female assistant's eyes lit up and she asked, "Who is it?"
The head of the public relations department thought for a moment and said, "It is most likely the emerging wealthy man in Qindao: Chen Yan."
"Although he has always been hiding behind the scenes, these water armies and the small public relations companies standing in front of the stage have nothing to do with him."
"However, we found out that these companies have always had in-depth cooperation with his film and television companies."
"They were present in several project promotions and publicity for actors."
When she heard it was Chen Yan, the female assistant frowned.
Because, other people in the company didn’t know who Chen Yan’s subordinates were, but as Zhao Qingtian’s female assistant for many years, she knew.
That was the woman Zhao Qingtian had always been thinking about.
She didn't know what happened back then, but she knew how obsessed her uncle was with that woman.
Over the years, she had seen Zhao Qingtian flirting with women or being obsessed with a woman, but she had never seen him so infatuated.
At first she didn't understand why this happened, but later Zhao Qingtian said something to her after drinking that made her understand the reason:
A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, a secret lover is not as good as... being unable to steal.
Although Zhao Qingtian was ruthless and cruel, he had no bad hobbies. He didn't eat, drink, or smoke, but he liked women.
Even though he married a woman from another big family in his early years, it did not stop him from being affectionate.
And because of his good looks, extraordinary bearing, humorous conversation, and his substantial wealth and the vast resources he can provide, almost no woman can escape from his clutches.
Except...Yang Rou.
This also made Zhao Qingtian always miss her.
And now, this matter involves Yang Rou, and the female assistant suddenly feels that things have become more complicated.
After all, after knowing the past between Zhao Qingtian and Yang Rou, no one would think that if Chen Yan suddenly took action against Zhao Qingtian, Yang Rou would stay out of it.
Therefore, she could imagine Zhao Qingtian's anger after knowing this.
For a moment, she even prayed for Chen Yan: You really stirred up a hornet's nest... I hope you can face the boss's wrath...
After thinking this, the female assistant came to her senses.
She looked at the people in charge and said, "We can't be careless about this matter. Keep investigating. Confirm whether it is him."
After she finished speaking, several responsible persons nodded.
Then the head of the PR team spoke up, "Also, there is one more thing. Because we found out about Chen Yan, we did not contact Toutiao Technology."
"After all, it is a public opinion platform controlled by Chen Yan."
"How should we deal with this?"
After hearing what the head of the PR team said, the female assistant knew that he was worried that Toutiao Technology would stand on Chen Yan's side. If they used their connections or resources to pressure him, the other party would easily take advantage of the opportunity to gain control of the evidence.
When the time comes, it will explode and put us in a further passive position.
With this in mind, she thought for a while and said, "I'll take care of this matter."
"I'll call Zhang Yonghao personally to discuss this matter."
As the assistant to the chairman of the Zhao Group, she is a senior executive of the company. In addition, she had contact with Zhang Yonghao when she dealt with the Toutiao Technology incident last time.
Therefore, it would be more appropriate for her to handle this matter personally.
After all, even if Toutiao Technology stood on Chen Yan's side, as a famous wealthy man in Tiandu, Zhang Yonghao would not record the conversation himself or reveal the affairs of the Zhao Group.
Not only would this make him untrustworthy in the circle, but it would also be equivalent to directly breaking off relations with the Zhao Group and declaring war on them.
The female assistant believed that Zhang Yonghao would not do such a thing.

At this time, in the office, Zhao Qingtian sat in the boss chair with a frosty face.
Just as the female assistant guessed, he took this matter very seriously.
Because he knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.
The rumors outside now are just that Zhao Jie used connections and changed his name to a fresh graduate.
As for who was looking for him, no one knew.
Many people even believe that Zhao Jie was forced to do this because of the "unreasonable" school admission requirements.
But... only he knew. He was the one who found all those connections. And... the most troublesome thing was not this. It was Zhao Jie's subsequent recruitment...
That is a key university related to national defense, and its level is very high.
Plus, the people he entrusted, so this matter involved several well-known and high-ranking bosses.
Once it is exploded, it will be a real bomb!
Therefore, he would not allow this matter to continue to ferment and it must be suppressed!
It has been so many years since this happened, and he can no longer change it. But he can deal with the person who said this...
Therefore, no matter what the cost, he must suppress this matter!
And he will not let go of anyone who stabs him in the back!
When the time comes, he will settle accounts one by one personally!

With Zhao Qingtian's extremely tough attitude, the huge machine of the Zhao Group suddenly began to operate frantically.
As a top conglomerate with a trillion-dollar scale and millions of employees, the Zhao Group has enormous power.
When it is still, it looks like a harmless stone.
But once it started moving, everyone understood how terrifying it was: it was truly a behemoth that could cover the sky with one hand!
Therefore, with one strike from the Zhao Group, all topics about Zhao Jie on all major online platforms and media disappeared without a trace.
Someone had eaten the melon before, and thought of it again in the afternoon and wanted to search for it.
As a result, after searching, they were surprised to find that all the entries below this word on Weibo had been cleared.
When they posted a Weibo post themselves, they found that the content had been censored.
Someone discovered this and asked a question on Zhihu, only to find that his question was allowed to be raised, but there was no response at all: the number of people who responded was limited.
Unless he @s others or sends the link, no one else will be able to find this topic.
What is even more terrifying is that in QQ groups and WeChat groups, someone posted this incident, only to find that after the message was sent, the group members acted as if they had not seen it and continued to chat about their own things.
At first he was confused, thinking that no one was interested in this topic.
But later, when I was chatting with someone inadvertently, I looked at the other person's screenshots and realized that the messages he sent could only be seen by himself and no one else could see them at all.
This moment was suddenly creepy.
This kind of thing happens on all platforms.
The people who were originally attracted by the trending searches on Weibo couldn’t get their voices heard at all.
Some of them don’t realize that they can’t spread the message and think that others are not interested.
Some were frightened by this horrific incident and dared not post it.
Only a small number of people, concentrated in some niche forums, are still discussing this matter on the platform. And... I feel horrified when I think about it carefully.
Of course, all these things were discovered by Chen Yan and Yang Rou, who had been monitoring online public opinion.
So, even though she didn't go to work that day, Yang Rou still rushed to Chen Yan's house as soon as possible to discuss countermeasures.
Well... it's a bit of an exaggeration to say that we were in a hurry.
After all, they lived next door to each other.
Yang Rou even wore slippers when she came to Chen Yan's house.
Chen Yan asked Yang Rou to sit on the sofa, poured her a glass of water, and then started chatting with her, "Sister Rou, you really got it right."
"Originally I thought we would at least catch Zhao Qingtian off guard."
"Then, while he hasn't reacted, we'll pursue him."
"I didn't expect that he would use such a high-pressure policy right away."
Speaking of this, Chen Yan was a little surprised, "If you don't know, you would think something serious happened to him. He actually reacted so strongly."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Yang Rou also looked serious.
Instead, she thought more, "Mr. Chen, this is actually a good thing."
“This shows that we have indeed chosen the right thing.”
"The only problem is how can we break through Zhao Qingtian's high-pressure blockade policy."
Chen Yan nodded.
He was thinking while drinking water.
As he thought about it, he couldn't help but think of Toutiao Technology.
As a major emerging Internet company in China, Toutiao Technology has a number of apps with high traffic.
There is their current flagship product: Toutiao.
They have placed a heavy bet on their core product: Douyin.
There is also a new one that has just been developed, which is focused on funny jokes.
Although there is some overlap in these traffics, even so, it can at least cover 100 to 200 million users in the country.
I just happen to own his shares, and now I have a veto power.
Why not take this opportunity to create a gap in the Zhao Group's public opinion lineup and let this topic explode on Toutiao and Douyin.
It just so happens that this topic has explosive potential and has been banned by the entire network. Once only Douyin and Toutiao have this news, it is possible that it will attract a large wave of traffic for Toutiao Technology's two products!
Thinking of this, Chen Yan told Yang Rou his thoughts.
After listening to this, Yang Rou nodded in agreement.
Think this is a good idea.
After all, that’s how the game of capital is played. Once you invest, you become a family.
When it comes to matters that have nothing to do with the company's survival, companies tend to help their own people.
Moreover, whether it is the company's chairman or general manager, they will unite all major shareholders.
Because you never know what kind of trouble you may run into in the future and you may need the other party's voting support.
Therefore, Yang Rou felt that Chen Yan’s ideas and feasibility were very good.
With Yang Rou's approval, Chen Yan no longer hesitated.
He went straight to the balcony, took out his cell phone and called Zhang Yonghao.
I called, but the line was busy...
Chen Yan didn't care.
After all, as the general manager of a company, it's normal to be busy.
He called again after more than a minute, and this time the call went through.
After the call was connected, Chen Yan said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang has been very busy recently."
Zhang Yonghao also smiled and said, "No, no. I have a lot of things to do in the company."
At this point, he also took the initiative to ask about Chen Yan, "What does Mr. Chen want to talk to me about?"
Chen Yan considered his words and said, "It's like this. I want our company's two software to help me promote a topic."
Zhang Yonghao was stunned for a moment and asked, "What topic?"
Chen Yan, "The son of the chairman of the Zhao Group cheated in the college entrance examination."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Zhang Yonghao took a breath.
Then he said, "Mr. Chen... this is a bit... inappropriate."
"I seem to have heard about this as well. But if we push it without any real evidence, it will have a very bad impact."
Since Chen Yan wanted to tell Zhang Yonghao about this, he didn't think of hiding it from him.
Besides...
This matter has become so serious that he can't hide it.
So, he said, "I do believe this is true. And I have some evidence."
"As for the violation, don't worry. I'll have my people send out the information when the time comes."
"If there is any problem, my people will be responsible. It has nothing to do with you."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Zhang Yonghao coughed and asked tentatively, "Mr. Chen, did anything happen between you and Mr. Zhao?"
Chen Yan was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, there are some things."
Zhang Yonghao laughed dryly and said, "Mr. Chen, it's not convenient for me to interfere in your private affairs."
"And, as you know, our company is an algorithm company. We have a complete set of recommendation logic internally."
"I can't interfere with the recommendation logic for personal reasons."
He said, "If you really want to post it, you... um... otherwise just let someone post it themselves."
“Whether it can be on the front page and be recommended depends on the quality of the article.”
Hearing Zhang Yonghao's words, Chen Yan's heart gradually sank.
There is actually nothing wrong with what Zhang Yonghao said.
The company belongs to all shareholders and employees, not just one person. So it cannot be used for private matters.
The core recommendation logic of Toutiao is their core competitiveness. Unauthorized changes can easily lead to problems.
but!
This is all under normal circumstances!
There are wartime concessions.
The other side attacked, and Chen Yan wanted to fight back, but his allies said that you are just having a personal grudge, so just fight on your own.
Isn’t this nonsense!
Then why do we invest so much money in you?
Isn't it just for the critical moment, we can be a whole and fight the enemy together!
Every person and every company has tendencies.
Since a company is made up of people, it cannot just operate coldly according to rules.
What's more, if Toutiao was really such a strict company, it would not have wanted to break the rules and take back Chen Yan's shares.
This is clearly "obey the rules when it is beneficial to me" and "trample on the rules when it is not beneficial to me"!
Moreover, Chen Yan really doesn’t believe that Toutiao’s algorithm cannot be adjusted.
He had seen more than one piece of smear news about Slow Hands.
How could this be possible without Zhang Yonghao's nod!
So, at this moment Chen Yan was really heartbroken.
Even on the surface, he is the major shareholder of Toutiao Technology with a 20% stake.
As a result, this stock is like a piece of waste paper and has no use at all!
When facing the Zhao Group, Chen Yan still has to face it alone.
So, what’s the point of Toutiao? What’s the point of Zhang Yonghao?
If Chen Yan had only thought about taking over Toutiao Technology before, now he has made up his mind: he has to hold the thing in his own hands to feel at ease!
As for whether the company will develop smoothly after leaving Zhang Yonghao.
Chen Yan didn't care.
Because he has a system and Xiao Ha's Polaroid camera.
As long as he can retain the company's core backbone and hold on to the company's core competitiveness.
In addition, Xiao Ha's Polaroid camera constantly helps him determine the direction of Toutiao's path to a trillion-dollar market value. He believes that he can also lead Toutiao forward!
As for how to determine the company's core backbone and core competitiveness...
We can still use [Xiao Ha's Polaroid camera] to judge.
