Chapter 103
Inside the ICQ Company headquarters building in New York, a large number of reporters poured in. Some were reporters from well-known newspapers such as The New York Times, and others were foreign media such as the British BBC. In short, media from all over the world gathered at the ICQ Company headquarters in New York, all for the sake of the biggest scandal in the United States that ICQ Company was about to disclose.
For foreign media, there was no headline more exciting than this. As the world's number one power, once a scandal appeared in the United States, it would simply shock the world. Of course, if an ordinary person said it, it would definitely not cause any influence, but the one speaking was ICQ Company, the monopolist of the internet world.
As for why ICQ Company wanted to disclose this scandal, and whether it was to retaliate for something, they were too lazy to care. Anyway, large companies and newspaper/radio stations belonged to that kind of relationship of cooperation amidst confrontation and confrontation amidst cooperation, which could be called a pair of happy enemies.
The only thing that might make people worry was the retaliation of the US government, but they were foreign media and were not managed by the US government.
And for the domestic media in the United States, what could be more eye-catching than a scandal in the United States? As for the anger of the White House, let them be angry. Sales are king; who cares if you are the President?
Even if you are the President, they dare to spit on you. Back then, Bush's daughter attended a naked party, wasn't it reported just the same? And it was widely reported, shocking the entire United States.
"Speaking of which, ICQ Company suddenly invited us to come and even gave an eye-catching headline. I wonder what kind of scandal it is." A reporter waited boredly below and began to chat.
"I don't know. Maybe it's something like the US President being a body double, or the US President going to date a mistress in the middle of the night." Another reporter answered casually and laughed to himself. The privacy of the US President had always been something the public was willing to see and newspapers were willing to report. Anyway, the President is a celebrity and is not protected by privacy laws, so they can dig and disclose without scruples.
"It shouldn't be." Another reporter said hesitantly, "If it were just that kind of gossip, why would they labor ICQ Company to invite reporters from all over the world?"
"Maybe it's something related to US national defense security, for example, bribery? Power-money trading? Could it be that ICQ Company participated in some plan, but the person in charge of the plan was bought off, kicked them out, and then they were angry, so they came to report it?" A reporter kept talking, and the more he talked, the more outrageous it became.
"It's possible." Many reporters said in unison. News bitten out by dogs biting dogs was what they liked the most because, in this way, they could at least write about it for half a month. At that time, they would invite some experts to comment and analyze, so why worry about sales not going up?
For ICQ Company, they had deep resentment. ICQ Company, in treating reporters, although very polite, if you dare to break in to dig for news, they are absolutely not polite. They will immediately call security to come up and then throw you onto the street, while at the same time sending messages to the internet to make you notorious.
It is precisely because peers are enemies that ICQ Company doing this, to a certain extent, had the functions of a newspaper organization. Coupled with their impoliteness to reporters, it made reporters hate ICQ Company to the bone, but people happen to be the monopolist of the internet, and the relationship between newspaper offices and them was also in a state of semi-cooperation, making them have to swallow this breath.
Now, ICQ Company might have suffered a loss and wanted to use the hands of their newspaper offices to disclose some inside information. They naturally clapped and cheered. As the saying goes, dogs biting dogs, biting happily, they, the people watching the show, also watched happily. What's more, watching the show could also help their own newspaper increase sales and get bonuses, so why not do it?
So one by one, they looked forward to it, hoping that the people from ICQ Company would arrive sooner, so that they could release the news sooner, but...
Newspaper reporters all looked at the radio live broadcast reporters with disgust. If it were broadcast live by the radio station, although it wouldn't have too much conflict with the newspaper office, it would still affect sales to some extent. This was why many newspaper offices pursued exclusive news, all to maximize the sales brought by the news.
"Are you really going to disclose it? In this way, you will be completely at odds with S. H. I. E. L. D." Pan Duola was slightly worried. The establishment of S. H. I. E. L. D. could be traced back to World War II. In these decades, no one knew to what extent S. H. I. E. L. D. had developed. Their data was all kept in secret experimental bases and disconnected from the internet. Even she could not know the specific situation unless she sought help from Skynet.
"It seems it's time to have a good talk with Sister Skynet."
Pan Duola was not a stupid woman. On the contrary, as an intelligent life, although she was weaker than ordinary people in logical judgment, in analysis, ten Ye Nans couldn't compare to her.
Ye Nan's mystery, the suddenly appeared Terminator, and the crazy Sarah all told her that there was a hidden story, and the Skynet that Ye Nan mentioned in the small town also allowed her to connect all of this together. She wanted to know the truth, so she had to have a good talk with Skynet.
"I have already fallen out with S. H. I. E. L. D. from the moment I brought the Superman soldier back." Ye Nan narrowed his eyes and said, "The existence of S. H. I. E. L. D. itself is a huge obstacle for me to control the United States, and it itself wants to exploit me, treating my ICQ Company as a free technology research and development base."
"How is this possible? For me and him to want to coexist peacefully, unless I show weakness, otherwise, it is simply impossible to coexist peacefully."
"But Pan Duola, showing weakness and giving away one's own trump cards has never been my style. So destroying S. H. I. E. L. D., or at the very least, making them fall into trouble and unable to extricate themselves."
Ye Nan said lightly. The American people, if used well, are still very cute. At least he could make S. H. I. E. L. D. fall into trouble.
Ye Nan slowly walked to the hall, facing the long guns and short cannons of countless reporters, and walked slowly onto the podium.
"Everyone, I am Ye Nan, the president of ICQ Company."
"It's actually Ye Nan, this ICQ Company president who sees the head but not the tail." After Ye Nan took the stage, the people below immediately whispered to each other.
Ye Nan, since six years ago, after establishing ICQ Company, had rarely appeared before the media. I didn't expect him to appear this time.
"It seems that ICQ Company has suffered a not-so-light stumble this time." The reporters below nodded in unison.
"First of all, I welcome all the reporter friends from major media who have come in person. Here, on behalf of ICQ Company, I express my gratitude to everyone!"
"Furthermore, I want to protest, protest the inaction of the US federal government, which has allowed certain malignant tumor organizations to grow and develop, and allowed the military to rely on military power."
