I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week - Chapter 2201

Chapter 2201: Chapter 2202: Sacrifice the Car to Save the King

Seeing such a headline, Wang Xiaohui almost vomited blood.

The incident had been exposed, but the event itself was not terrifying.

What was terrifying was how the follow-up news would be written!

And this current press release obviously pointed the spearhead and focused on the officials!

“How did this happen!” Wang Xiaohui slapped the table and stood up, “This place was photographed!”

The secretary became tense and cautiously said,

“I called and asked, yesterday a man named Lin Yi went to the detention center, but before he entered, his cellphone had already been taken away. However, from the video footage, it appeared not to have been shot with a cellphone, it looked like a pinhole camera.”

“It’s actually him! This damned guy!”

Wang Xiaohui suddenly became composed, if it was Lin Yi, then the matter was easy to understand.

Being a person of Group Leader Level in the Central Guards Brigade, such a matter would not trouble him.

And those fools like Huang Sihai, without any knowledge, fell into his trap!

Now it had all been exposed!

“Leader, aside from these, there are other news items as well, and their impact is also not good.”

“More of them?!”

“They are all here, take a look and you’ll understand.”

Wang Xiaohui continued reading, but his blood pressure rose with each line.

[Six fugitive suspects, all apprehended! Who tipped them off, who is their protector?!]

The content of the news was about six other people being caught, handcuffed, and forcibly photographed.

And this was all orchestrated by Lin Yi.

What they were doing on the business trip was unimportant.

As long as a photo was taken and coupled with a provocative headline, then the power of public opinion would sway to his side!

Besides this, Wang Xiaohui discovered that the news subtly disclosed that these people were members of the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce!

Even Shao Zhenye and Gu Haichao were listed in it, painted as accomplices!

This point thoroughly exposed these people to the sunlight!

Yet none of these mattered as much as the subsequent news that made Wang Xiaohui seethe with anger.

Simply put, the remaining news articles were not exposing the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce.

Looking at the headlines from another angle, they seemed to be positive news.

But the content made Wang Xiaohui break out in a cold sweat!

There were over twenty photos in there, three of which were of himself with Shao Zhenye, Gu Haichao, and Huang Sihai!

The remaining pictures were of the Yanjing core leaders with members of the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce!

All these group photos originated from various project collaborations, completely normal news that had also been reported back in the day.

But being exposed at this moment posed a massive problem!

As the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce was in trouble, once these photos leaked, the public would naturally associate him as their protector!

Coupled with the previous targeted news, if not swiftly curtailed, the matter could blow up!

“Damn it!”

Wang Xiaohui cursed and furiously stood up from his chair, pacing back and forth in his office.

Yesterday had been calm, but today, the news had all erupted forth; that kid really played his cards well!

“Quick, call someone to scrub this information from the internet, and if any site dares to post this stuff, bring their managers in for a talk!”

“I’ve already ordered someone to do that, but it’s impossible to entirely scrub it. Even though some have been blocked, a large amount of information is still flooding in,” the secretary said.

“Moreover, the troll army is smart, they already sealed off this route.”

“What do you mean?”

“There’s one news piece, titled [Why Can Capital Control Public Opinion? Is It Power?]”

“This damned thing!”

The usually genteel Wang Xiaohui became irate.

“Leader, the only way we could control public opinion now is through internet surveillance.”

“Internet surveillance…”

Wang Xiaohui had just picked up his phone when he suddenly halted, realizing that internet surveillance was controlled by the Liang family, and he had no influence there!

“It’s impossible now, we can’t talk them into it.”

“This…”

The assistant was also at a loss for words, as the pervasive public opinion was beyond containment.

The impact on their careers would be unprecedented.

Brrring, brrring–

At that moment, Wang Xiaohui’s phone rang, and he saw that it was a call from Qin Yinglong.

“Brother Qin.”

“What’s going on there, how could such a big oversight occur.”

“They’ve exploited a loophole, I hadn’t anticipated this,” Wang Xiaohui said. “I’m considering ways to remedy this.”

“Given the current stage, there’s really no good solution,” Qin Yinglong stated:

“We might have to give up on the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce. If we continue to protect them, we’ll be implicated as well.”

“Give up…”

Wang Xiaohui’s expression wasn’t surprised, as he had previously also considered this idea.

Now, all they could do was to sacrifice the lesser for the greater good.

“I understand.”

…

Inside the tea room on the fourth floor of Yunshan Pavilion, Shao Zhenye and Gu Haichao were present.

In addition, their sons, Shao Yuanjie and Gu Qingping, were there as well.

The two men were very well-built, emanating a fearsome and intimidating presence, giving off an air not to be trifled with.

As people from the Central Guard Group Four, their individual strengths had reached Level C.

In terms of single combat, even Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che, who had just stepped into Level C, might not be able to match them.

The reason the two families gathered here was due to the negative news online, which they had seen.

It directed all the conflicts toward them.

But what worried them the most was that Lin Yi had implicated Wang Xiaohui and other higher-level individuals in the matter.

They didn’t know the outcome of the affair.

“This is a very dangerous signal, detrimental for us,” Gu Haichao said:

“If we can’t take Lin Yi down, the conflict won’t die down, and our crisis won’t be resolved.”

“Mainly now, we can’t clearly see the intent of the leadership above.”

“They’ve also been pushed to the brink of the storm and probably have no time to deal with these matters. What we can do now is only save ourselves. If we wait until the last minute, it won’t be good for anyone.”

After a long silence, Shao Zhenye spoke with a grim expression:

“The best method of saving ourselves is to get rid of Lin Yi! To eliminate future troubles!”

“Then let’s do that. We have no other options left,”

Gu Haichao finished speaking and looked at his son Shao Yuanjie.

“He’s part of Central Guards. The two of you taking him down shouldn’t be too difficult, right?”

“Not exactly,” Shao Yuanjie whispered:

“I went to Chengdu recently and gleaned some understanding of Lin Yi’s strength; he’s an extremely formidable person.”
