Chapter 127: Which Media Outlet Said I Died? I'm Going to Sue You All

~8 min read 1,451 words

In the "Tian Di Ban (Floor to Ceiling)" battle, Qin Feng, with the force of a thunderbolt, not only shattered the Liang Family's despicable financial sniping and media smearing, but also struck back, pinning the other side to the pillar of shame. With ironclad evidence, the Liang Family's reputation suffered a heavy blow; the relevant parties responsible were pushed into the limelight, facing enormous public pressure and possible regulatory investigation, and for the short term were no longer able to stir up trouble.

This clean, decisive counterattack greatly intimidated those petty villains lurking in the shadows, and also raised the prestige and cohesion of the "Qin Feng System" to a new height.

However, the tree may wish for stillness, but the wind will not cease. Just when everyone assumed Qin Feng would use this opportunity to rest and recuperate, to consolidate his gains, an even more absurd — yet more vicious — storm erupted without warning.

This time, the vehicle of attack was no longer the financial pages and social media, but turned instead to certain tabloids and self-media outlets that chase traffic and have absolutely no bottom line.

The cause was that recently, because of handling Xia's father's illness, dealing with the Liang Family's attacks, and pushing forward projects like "Jingyuan Technology," Qin Feng's public appearances had noticeably decreased. Add to that his consistently secretive movements, and this gave certain people room to fabricate things out of thin air.

An article with an extremely sensational headline began spreading across the internet like a virus:

【Shocking! Business tycoon Qin Feng suspected of suffering from a terminal illness, has secretly gone overseas for treatment, life is on the countdown?!】

The article's content spoke with great certainty, claiming to have learned from an "insider at a top private hospital" that Qin Feng had contracted some extremely rare, incurable hereditary disease, and was currently receiving "end-of-life care" at a top medical institution in Switzerland, with the situation extremely unoptimistic. The article also "reasonably" speculated that the earlier stock price fluctuations of "Huaxin Technology" were because insiders had learned of this "bad news" in advance.

To boost credibility, the article even included several blurry, long-distance photos that appeared to show Qin Feng sitting in a wheelchair being pushed into a hospital (clearly AI-generated or maliciously photoshopped).

A single stone stirred up a thousand ripples!

If the earlier financial fraud accusations targeted the company, then this "death" rumor targeted Qin Feng personally, and its intent was even more sinister!

If the soul figure of an enterprise is rumored to be "not long for this world," the blow to company morale, partner confidence, and capital market stability would be devastating!

The moment the article came out, it was immediately reposted by a large number of uninformed media and self-media outlets; terms like "Qin Feng critically ill" and "Qin Feng terminal illness" surged to the top of trending searches again. Although the "Qin Feng System" PR team debunked it immediately, rumors spread far faster than truth, and the panic and doubt continued to spread.

Luocheng, branch office.

Qin Feng had just finished a video conference with Su Jin in the country about the progress of Xia's father's treatment (the situation was moving in a positive direction), when Chen Ming walked in with an ugly expression, holding a Tablet Computer displaying that absurd "critically ill" report.

"President Qin, look at this... it's complete nonsense!" Chen Ming was so angry his voice was trembling.

Qin Feng took the tablet, quickly scanned the sensational headline and the content riddled with holes, and instead of anger, his face showed a trace of... an extremely strange expression, as if he wanted to laugh, yet carried a cold mockery.

"Terminal illness? Switzerland? End-of-life care?" he recited these keywords softly, shook his head, his tone carrying a condescending playfulness, "The ability to make up stories... is a bit better than those financial hitmen the Liang Family hired, but unfortunately, still not professional enough."

He put down the tablet and looked at Chen Ming: "Traced the source?"

"We've initially Locked on to several self-media outlets that published it first; there seem to be traces of overseas capital support behind them. It's very likely a counterattack by the Liang Family's remaining forces, or... other rivals who have it in for us are using the opportunity to make trouble." Chen Ming reported.

Qin Feng nodded, indicating he understood. He pondered for a moment, then suddenly said to Chen Ming: "Help me prepare. In ten minutes, I'm holding an emergency global video press conference."

"Press conference?" Chen Ming was stunned. "You're going to debunk it yourself?"

"Debunk it?" A cold arc curved at the corner of Qin Feng's mouth. "No. That would be too easy on them."

Ten minutes later, on the screens of all major global branches, partner media, and investment institutions of the "Qin Feng System," an emergency video signal was connected simultaneously.

In the frame, Qin Feng sat upright in his office, with Luocheng's brilliant night view behind him. He wore a well-tailored dark suit, his complexion ruddy, his Spirit full, his gaze sharp as an eagle's — where was even the slightest trace of being "critically ill"?

He did not look at a script; his gaze looked calmly straight into the camera, as if it could pierce through the screen and see every person watching.

"Good evening, everyone. I am Qin Feng."

His voice was clear, steady, carrying his usual composure.

"Originally, at this time I should have been handling some more important matters. However, I just saw some very... interesting news."

He paused, a half-smile, half-not expression appearing on his face, picked up the Tablet Computer Chen Ming had prepared beside him, and held it up to the camera, clearly displaying the headline of that "critically ill" report.

"Supposedly, I'm suffering from a terminal illness, my life is hanging by a thread, and I'm waiting to die in Switzerland?"

His tone carried undisguised mockery.

The audience (those watching the livestream) fell silent; everyone held their breath.

Immediately after, Qin Feng made a move that left everyone dumbfounded.

He slammed the Tablet Computer onto the table with a sharp "Slap!" His entire presence instantly became incomparably fierce, his gaze like an unsheathed sharp sword, sweeping across the virtual camera:

"I want to ask the ones who wrote this report, and these media outlets that reposted and spread it —"

His voice suddenly rose, carrying an unquestionable authority and fury, each word measured as he roared:

"WHICH! ONE! IS! IT?!"

"Who gave you the power to curse me, Qin Feng, to die here?!"

"Don't you love making up stories? Don't you love grabbing eyeballs?"

Qin Feng leaned forward slightly, facing the camera, revealing an ice-cold smile:

"Fine! I'll give you this chance!"

"Right now, I, Qin Feng, am standing right here! Alive and well!"

"All media and individuals who published or reposted this false report, listen carefully —"

"My legal team will come knocking, one by one! We'll see each other in court!"

"I will sue you into bankruptcy! Sue you into a public apology! Sue you until you never dare use these despicable tactics to spread rumors and cause trouble again!"

"I mean what I say!"

These words were earth-shattering! Overwhelmingly domineering!

No tactful debunking, no patient explanation — only the most direct, most forceful counterattack and declaration of war!

Through the livestream, everyone could clearly see Qin Feng's vigorous vitality, his overwhelming presence, and... that undisguised, all-crushing fury!

How could this be a "critically ill" person? This was clearly an enraged lion!

The livestream signal cut off.

But the entire world seemed to fall silent for a moment because of Qin Feng's extremely forceful declaration.

Immediately after, came a tsunami-like response!

Supporters cheered and rejoiced, cheering for Qin Feng's toughness and domineering spirit!

The media that had reposted the rumors were scared out of their wits, hurriedly beginning to delete articles and issue apology statements!

And those behind-the-scenes masterminds felt a chill shoot from the soles of their feet straight to the crown of their heads! They had not expected Qin Feng's counterattack to be so utterly merciless, so... direct!

Sue? Sue into bankruptcy?

With the wealth and power Qin Feng now commanded, he absolutely could do it!

This move was more effective than any debunking! Directly using the power of law and capital to crush all petty villains!

The farce of his "death," under Qin Feng's forceful "resurrection" declaration and legal threats, melted away rapidly like snow under sunlight.

Everyone once again soberly realized: that man named Qin Feng was not only alive, but more dangerous and more powerful than ever before!

Want him dead?

I'm afraid you... don't yet have that qualification!
