Chapter 736: Swordplay at Mount Shu (Part 1)

Views:

"Cheng Ran... Did I do something wrong by going to HKUST to meet you..." Qin Xizhen was in low spirits on the phone. After leaving HKUST, Qin Xizhen has been working non-stop. He has visited relevant media groups, official and private parties, including related industries, one after another, a series of public relations. However, this kind of public relations is very different from the kind that eliminates the impact. Instead, it is trying to ferment and guide the topic in a positive way.

Among these, all the favors, promises, interest links, and various aspects are involved. Now that she controls the largest digital music carrier in China, Tianxing Music, and holds pop music seeds, she has close direct and indirect relationships with half of the pop music circle. In addition, she has several strong official ambassadors. If she continues to be active personally, the energy she can mobilize will be amazing.

Therefore, Qin Xizhen would not have rashly taken the action of the University of Science and Technology if he was not very sure.

At first, it was smooth sailing, and the popularity of Guoxin returned to the right track, and it was spreading in a healthy and positive way. It was not that they did not expect a rebound, so they also set up several lines of defense. Of course, among the people they contacted, there were not necessarily those who made promises on the surface, but were insincere and hypocritical behind the scenes. Qin Xizhen and Chen Muyi were all evaluated for risks behind the scenes. They caught those that could be caught first, those that could be fought for, those that could not be caught but could be stabilized, those that could be stabilized without fear of rebound, those that could be stabilized and fear of rebound and needed to be guarded against, and those that would definitely add insult to injury, but could be thrown bones for the other party to bite and run away first. In short, they united all the forces that could be united and achieved the ultimate.

They have also been pulling the red line of public opinion toward the edge of the green line of safety.

However, he did not expect that the opponent's counterattack would surge with such great energy, and all kinds of rumors were spread from the outside to the inside by some Hong Kong and Taiwan media who were best at this. In addition, several domestic magazines and online media with a wide audience in economically developed areas responded. With external momentum and internal response, the green line of public opinion that Qin Xizhen had pulled up was instantly pushed down to the red line.

And they advanced step by step, taking advantage of the human weakness of a large part of the public opinion who did not want to see the goddess Qin Xizhen come down to the mortal world. They first attacked Cheng Ran's character and devalued him as worthless, a "gigolo", a "deceiver of the world", and a "gigolo who lives off celebrities". As a result, Cheng Ran was pierced through the heart by thousands of arrows and several layers of skin were peeled off. Naturally, at this time, no one believed in the research results of the Tianxing Laboratory he was in charge of and the accusations against Chen Yue Guoxin.

At the same time, facing the news that gradually surfaced that Cheng Ran was the son of Fu Long Cheng Feiyang, he was further exploited.

"Isn't this what they call a father who is a hero but a son who is a jerk... Forget it, everyone knows that Fulong is a union-owned company, and Cheng Feiyang gave all the company to Fulong's contributing employees. His personal shareholding is extremely small, and it is well documented. Moreover, given Cheng Feiyang's personality, it is unlikely that his son will be able to get many shares from his father, let alone convert it into ready-made wealth, so he took an unconventional approach."

"If Cheng Feiyang knew that his son had done such a thing, using celebrities to engage in academic blackmail, would he choke out blood?"

"So I understand. He is a person who is suppressed by his father and wants to be as famous as his father, but he doesn't have much ability. He relies on poaching other people's talents, grabbing academic materials, and blackmailing national projects to get promoted..."

Knowing the outside world's voices, he knew where Qin Xizhen's depressed tone came from. Cheng Ran said, "So far, you have done well enough to bring back the heat and attention. Your thinking is correct."

"But the situation is not what we thought it would be, it's getting more and more chaotic..." Qin Xizhen didn't hold a grudge, this incident did help him sort out the network of people that came with his fame and career expansion over the years. At this time, who is really helping, who is watching, and who is shooting from behind, all of them are known. After this incident, Qin Xizhen will definitely be able to adjust his own route and bring his personal art and career to a new platform. However, in this wave of situations, Qin Xizhen also understands the power of the enemies that Cheng Ran is facing.

It seemed that what Cheng Ran was facing was a direct collision with the foundation of that huge interest group.

That's why the other party would use such a desperate method to drive him to the bottom of the quagmire, where he would never be able to get out.

All the people who have come into contact with him, the officials in Nanzhou who have been working for Cheng Ran's reforms, she, Qin Xizhen, and the scientific research seeds of the research team in Tianxing Laboratory that were gathered because of Cheng Ran, will all sink together.

"You've done enough. Don't worry too much. You haven't slept well recently. You should get more rest..."

"It's already this late, can you still sleep well?"

"You need to get enough sleep before you can fight. The more difficult the time, the more you need to have sufficient mental support..." Cheng Ran said over there, "Yes, so far, the situation is indeed very unfavorable, and now it looks like a mess again, but if you observe carefully, the relevant departments of the ministries and commissions for the Guoxin project have not made any statement on this, let alone jumped out to defend Guoxin in the first place..."

Qin Xizhen on the phone was silent for a moment, then said, "You mean..."

"What does this mean? It's not just you who want to see the truth from this chaos. There are still many smart people in this country who are constantly looking through the fog to see the truth... So a little chaos and a little noise is not a bad thing..."

"On the contrary, they started to get scared when they couldn't kill me."

"Although I know I must be very busy now, I still want to talk to you on the phone..."

Cheng Ran received a call, not surprisingly, from Yang Xia. He had received countless calls recently, from former classmates, friends, family, and company. Even Jiang Ling from Blue Dot Technology in the United States called him, saying that they had seen the news in China and asked him about his current situation. They asked him a lot of questions, worried and comforting, and finally ended with "Mr. Cheng, are you really having an affair with Qin Xiaotian? We are buddies, tell the truth... No matter what, I promise not to tell anyone and keep it a secret for you!" He patted his chest and asked in shock.

Cheng Ran hung up the phone at that time, thinking that they should be sent to stay in seclusion in Silicon Valley until the end of time. The operating system supporting the chip will never be put into operation, and no one should ever set foot on the land of the motherland again.

"Qin Qian told me that she called you before and you were in good condition... I saw a lot of news. Are you safe now?" There were more than just a lot of news. The spread of the scandal about Qin Xizhen in the outside world was beyond imagination.

If Guoxin was in the professional field before, no matter how sensational the news was, people who didn't pay attention to it would not see it, and even if they saw it, they might not care about it, and it might not spread. Qin Xizhen is in the most widely spread entertainment field. This explosive spread means that even if you don't care about this kind of thing at all, you will hear people around you discussing it in the classroom, in the cafeteria, and in the cubicle.

Just like Yang Xia, when she was in the cafeteria yesterday, there were two girls behind her. They should all be from scholarly families. They eat small food boxes, with only one or two ounces of rice, more vegetables and less meat. They speak in a gentle manner, but they frequently mention the words Qin Xizhen and Cheng Ran in their conversations. This is just one corner of Tsinghua University, and the impact of this incident is just the tip of the iceberg. It is unknown what other places are like.

It was strange to hear someone I was familiar with in a school cafeteria in Beijing, and to hear someone I knew become the subject of discussion. It was like being somewhere between fantasy and reality. It was hard to tell whether the person in question was the boy who calculated the time every day and walked out of the old residential building covered with ivy after I left the house, pretending to meet her by chance, but actually just wanted to walk with her for a while.

Cheng Ran's voice came from the phone, "It's safe... You know, my uncle Cheng Bin is now the deputy mayor in charge of public security. Brother Xiaojun came to Nanzhou a long time ago, and the people with Brother Xiaojun are watching here now. You don't have to worry about Qin Xizhen's fanatical fans throwing bricks and stabbing me, or some deliberate personal injury plots or something like that."

Yang Xia asked, "So what's going on between Qin Xizhen and you? Have you been in contact privately? Or is it really as the newspaper said?"

Cheng Ran said, "The Jianghu is in urgent need, and we need to draw our swords to help, for the sake of justice."

Yang Xia was amused, and then she held the phone and whispered, "Cheng Ran, you are always like this. It seems that things about you may not be noticeable at the beginning, or may not be so amazing at the first time, and sometimes they may even be ignored by others, but those unnoticed beginnings are connected little by little, and in the end... they seem to have become legends."

When Yang Xia said this, she could still think of many things from the past, the poetry competitions in the neighborhood, the role-playing games of house together, the boy's smile when he took the drink from her hand while playing football hard on the field with yellow grass in autumn, the playful words of boys and girls walking through the old streets and alleys where antennas cut through the sky at dusk, and the blushing face of the boy when he peeked at her, all of which were like the sunset in her memory, mottled with time.

Those ignorant days, the days when I said I hated you and I stopped talking for several days, the days when I said I didn’t like you and it still hurts a little when I recall them, the sad, nostalgic years, those regretful years.

Those years that can never be returned.

It was in the midsummer of May 2002, when all kinds of rumors about scandals and academic fraud were rampant, both about Guoxin and the little queen, and it was destined to be unforgettable.

End of month.

The Third China Western International Expo, co-hosted by China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council of China, China People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce and Sichuan Provincial People's Government, is an important diplomatic platform, trade cooperation platform and investment promotion platform in the western region of China, an important carrier for the realization of "Western Cooperation", "East-Central-West Cooperation" and "China-Foreign Cooperation", and a national-level international event that is an important window for the opening up and cooperation of the western region.

Opening.

The IT industry, which was highlighted among the four major themes of the exhibition, also timely extended another prosperous Internet world.

The event was hosted by Mr. Ma, the young president who is now the top figure in the e-commerce field and appears on the cover of Forbes magazine as the "spokesperson for China's new economy." He issued a call for heroes.

To trigger the recovery of the Internet industry after the Nasdaq storm in the United States, the first "Shushan Sword Conference" with the theme of "World" is hailed by the outside world as a possible grand event for the future Chinese Internet industry, highlighting the trend of China's Internet so far and possibly becoming a leading vane for China's Internet. It will be held at the State Guesthouse at the foot of Mount Emei, more than 200 kilometers away from Chengdu, the venue of the international conference West China Expo.

What’s interesting is that this Shushan Sword Contest has actually been brewing as early as 2000. It has been widely anticipated by the Internet community and has been watched by the outside world. It is said that the specifications and tone are very high, but it has been delayed, which has always been a regret in the Internet industry.

It was not until the first conference in 2002 that it was finally held, with support from all sides and the help of the West China International Fair.

The energy that has been suppressed for nearly three years, the sword-debating conference with the theme of "The World" implies that China's Internet stage is bigger, its strength is stronger, its prospects are broader, and the drama is more exciting and mysterious!

Former US President Clinton will deliver a keynote speech, explaining the future of China's Internet from a pioneer's unique perspective.

In addition, heroes all over the world and Internet giants have taken over.

World Internet giant Yang Zhiyuan took the lead, CQ president Li Mingshi took the lead, Tonglang CEO Xie Qian took the lead, Wangyi's Ding Sanshi, SOHU's Zhang Chaoyang, Lianzhong's Cheng Qi... all took the lead.

The former President of the United States, the CEO of the world's top Internet company, and the CEO of hundreds of domestic Internet companies have received the post.

Heroes from all over the world.

Meeting at Mount Shu!
