Chapter 613 Isn’t this the best opportunity?

Lin Yuan was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Xiao Ke, don't you think we went too far?"

Qi Xiaoke on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment: "It passed? How could it be? Lin Yuan, this is a rare opportunity. We should strike while the iron is hot and post a few more hot searches."

"No," Lin Yuan interrupted her, "we can't do this."

Qi Xiaoke was a little confused: "Why? Lin Yuan, this is our best chance to defeat Gu Yexing."

Lin Yuan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Xiao Ke, our goal is to prove our strength, not to win by discrediting our opponents. If we do this, what is the difference from Gu Yexing?"

Qi Xiaoke was silent. She knew what Lin Yuan said made sense, but she still felt a little unwilling.

At this moment, Lin Yuan's cell phone suddenly received a text message.

He opened it and saw that it was from an unknown number: "Mr. Lin, I am the public relations manager of Gu Group. We hope to have a private meeting with you to discuss how to solve the current situation."

Lin Yuan frowned, thought for a moment and then replied: "Okay, I agree to meet."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yuan stood up and walked to the window. He looked out the window at the bustling streets, his heart filled with complicated emotions.

This crisis is far from over; on the contrary, it may have just begun.

Lin Yuan knew that he would face greater challenges next. But no matter what, he will not give up his principles.

At this moment, Lin Yuan's cell phone rang again.

He glanced at it and saw that it was a message from Qi Xiaoke: "Lin Yuan, I understand what you are thinking. I will stop all hot search operations immediately. Let's face this challenge together, okay?"

Lin Yuan looked at the news and unconsciously smiled.

He knows that no matter what difficulties he encounters, he is not fighting alone.

As hot search topics continue to ferment, netizens’ discussions on Lin Yuan and Gu Yexing have become increasingly intense.

Voices supporting Lin Yuan dominated, while criticism of Gu Yexing came like a tidal wave.

"Lin Yuan is so awesome! Not only is he technically excellent, but he is also a good character."

"Rich second generation people like Gu Yexing are scum. They play dirty tricks if they can't afford to lose."

At the same time, the stock price of Gu Group has also been significantly affected.

Shortly after the opening, the stock price fell significantly, causing market concerns. Some investors began to post complaints online:

"What's going on with the Gu Group? The second young master caused such a scandal, and the company didn't come forward to clarify it?"

"It seems that the management of Gu Group is asleep and cannot even do this crisis public relations well."

"I think it's better to sell Gu's stocks quickly. This kind of company is not worth investing in."

This turmoil quickly reached the ears of Gu Changchuan, chairman of the Gu Group. He was sitting in the spacious office, his face terrifyingly gloomy. The secretary stood aside tremblingly, not daring to look up at him.

"Call me Yexing!" Gu Changchuan said solemnly.

After a while, Gu Yexing hurried to his father's office. As soon as he opened the door, he heard his father's roar:

"You traitor! Look what happened to you!"

Gu Yexing lowered his head, not daring to look directly into his father's eyes: "Dad, I"

"Don't call me dad!" Gu Changchuan interrupted, "Do you know how serious the trouble you caused this time is? The company's stock price has dropped!"

Gu Yexing bit his lip, feeling scared and aggrieved.

He defended in a low voice: "Dad, this live broadcast was not my original intention. It was Lin Yuan's side."

"That's enough!" Gu Changchuan slammed the table, "No matter whose idea it was, as the heir to the Gu Group, how could you do such a thing that damages the company's image? You disappoint me so much!"

Gu Yexing was trembling with fear from his father's anger. He knew that he had gotten into big trouble this time and had to find a way to save the situation.

"Dad, I know I was wrong." Gu Yexing whispered, "I will find a way to solve it. In fact, this live broadcast was actually set up by Lin Yuan. They deliberately made me lose and then took the opportunity to hype it up."

Gu Changchuan narrowed his eyes and stared at his son: "Is what you said true?"

Gu Yexing nodded quickly: "It's absolutely true! Dad, we can use this to fight back. As long as we announce the truth, Lin Yuan will definitely..."

"Shut up!" Gu Changchuan interrupted his son again, "Do you think I will believe such a clumsy lie of yours? You are my son, and I don't know you yet?"

Gu Yexing's face turned pale, knowing that his lie had been exposed. He lowered his head and did not dare to speak anymore.

Gu Changchuan took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions: "Yexing, I give you one last chance. You must come forward in person, apologize to the public, and admit your mistakes. Then, you must take the initiative to contact Lin Yuan and reconcile with him. "

Gu Yexing raised his head suddenly: "Dad! How could I."

"This is an order!" Gu Changchuan said sternly, "If you can't do it, don't call me dad again!"

Gu Yexing gritted his teeth, a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes. But he knew he had no choice.

"I understand, Dad." Gu Yexing whispered, "I will do what you say."

Gu Changchuan waved his hand, indicating that his son could leave. Gu Yexing turned around and walked out of the office, his heart filled with humiliation and anger.

He clenched his fists and swore secretly in his heart: Lin Yuan, I have recorded the account this time. One day, I will make you pay!

After Gu Yexing left his father's office, his anger and humiliation became stronger.

He walked quickly to his private office, slammed the door, and slumped down on the luxurious leather sofa.

"Damn Lin Yuan!" He cursed in a low voice with gritted teeth, "How dare you humiliate me like this, and let my father be disappointed in me. I must make you pay the price!"

Just then, his mobile phone suddenly vibrated. Gu Yexing picked up the phone and found that it was a message from his friend.

"Brother, have you seen the comments online? Those people are too much, they actually insulted you like this!"

Gu Yexing frowned and clicked on the link sent by his friend, and then saw the overwhelming negative comments. The ridicule and abuse of netizens made him feel dizzy.

"Gu Yexing is a waste, he can't even beat a little anchor."

"It seems that the children of rich families are just like this, what else can they do besides spending money?"

"Is this the so-called elite class? It's so funny!"

Every comment was like a sharp knife, stabbing into Gu Yexing's heart. His hands trembled unconsciously, and his eyes flashed with angry sparks.

"Impossible, this is impossible," Gu Yexing muttered to himself, "How could I lose to that unknown person? Lin Yuan must have played some tricks!"

Just then, his eyes fell on a photo frame on the desk.

It was a photo of him and his father, taken on the day he graduated from college. In the photo, his father's face was filled with a proud smile, while he was high-spirited and full of confidence.
