Chapter 732: Soft War

In some people's hands, public opinion is easily guided.

"What, all the money has been made by the Yang Family? On what basis?"

"This is excessive, the Yang Family are traitors."

"You don't know, Vast Sea Precision Engineering belongs to the Yang Family; that guy, it's a sweatshop."

"You still don't know, the headlines are controlled by the Yang Family; they collude together, covering the sky with one hand."

"You don't know, regarding that something reported in the headlines, they are actually being framed; it's a village of scoundrels who turn black into white."

"Xinmin Bank Bank Bank Bank Bank? That guy, I heard they lost a lot of money; many people can't withdraw their money…"

"For a time, rumors about the Yang Family were rampant."

"Especially, the Yang Family's control over the IPO process is unacceptable, and everywhere there are reports exposing the dark side of the Azure Dragon Securities Exchange."

"This wave of public opinion is tumultuous beyond compare."

"Many rumors come from the internet, making it hard to trace their source."

"Yang Qing never expected that these people had cultivated so many internet trolls."

"Looking at these internet trolls, there are also many outspoken big Vs."

"Yang Qing suddenly recalled Yingjiang's plan to harm Daxia through the internet and Hanjian experts."

"Does Yingjiang have a hand in fanning the flames here?"

"Or have these people colluded together?"

"If they have colluded together, with these people providing cover……"

"Yang Qing suddenly felt a bit of palpitation."

"He also thought about the textbook matter."

"Think again about the previous life, how many traitors have emerged."

"A huge conspiracy shrouds this land."

"He couldn't attend to the Yang Family's affairs."

"The Yang Family has its own PR team; if they are toppled by these matters, there is no need for them to exist."

"Public opinion? It cannot be rushed."

"Step by step."

"He rushed to the Cabinet in a hurry."

"As for this Old Man Yang who comes to the Cabinet as if entering his own home, the Cabinet staff feel both annoyed and helpless."

"But driving him away won't work; this guy's vision is truly different, he seems able to see through time, in strategy he is overwhelmingly strong, sometimes even dozens of them cannot refute him alone."

"Even as an advisor, being able to act so arrogantly is unmatched."

"Yang Qing quickly gathered the relevant personnel into a meeting room."

"Then he voiced his suspicions."

"Nobody believed him."

"\"Yang Lao, you wouldn't be thinking of using us to take revenge this way, would you? \""

"\"That won't do, you're making a mistake. \""

"Yang Qing stuck out his neck and spoke angrily."

"\"Am I that kind of person? \""

"\"Just check the textbooks, those big Vs, and the internet trolls. \""

"\"This matter must be taken seriously; this is an all-encompassing brainwashing channel, if it's really like that, the harm would be immense, no need for me to say. \""

"\"Moreover, look at those online remarks. \""

"\"See how many pro-Yingjiang, pro-foreign discourses there are. \""

"\"Everything foreign is fragrant, while everything we do is wrong. \""

"\"If we continue like this……\""

"Yang Qing wiped the sweat from his forehead."

"\"How many people would become others' lackeys? \""

"\"Moreover, according to my understanding, many officials share this view. \""

"He wiped his sweat again."

"\"Have you considered how serious this is? \""

"Upon hearing Yang Qing's words, everyone also became solemn."

"The battlefield is everywhere; they also need to be careful."

"There are too many color revolution incidents."

"The polar bear, isn't it just because of this, turning from a polar bear into an Arctic bear?"

"\"We will immediately assign people to investigate this matter; if it's truly as you say, we will surely punish severely. \""

"\"What about the Yang Family's affairs, should we……\""

"Yang Qing directly shook his head."

"\"This is public opinion supervision; let them resolve it themselves. \""

"\"If someone is caught red-handed, treat them strictly. \""

"\"If the position is too important, I will directly convert them into a collective shareholding enterprise. \""

"\"The Yang Family will withdraw from it. \""

"\"Once the Cabinet intervenes, the nature changes. \""

"\"We can't really let others think the Yang Family is colluding with people. \""

Business is business, government is government, they cannot be mixed together.

Everyone admired Yang Qing for this.

Damn, not at all special.

They aren't even allowed to strike him once.

After saying that, Yang Qing went home.

After arriving home, he patted his seventy-year-old waist; he had run a bit hurriedly, and his old bones were somewhat severely worn.

The family was still worried about the current public opinion; seeing him return, they asked what to do.

He waved his hand.

You're all old bones; don't worry about young people's affairs.

Hurry up, rub my waist, it's a bit sore.

Chen Hong took out a plaster, heated it on the alcohol lamp, and slapped it on him with a pap.

You still know you're an old bone, yet you run around all day and even get into fights.

You deserve it.

Yang Qing didn't dare talk back, could only respond.

Yes, yes, yes, I deserve it.

Rub, rub, why is this plaster so hot?

Chen Hong slapped him.

It's supposed to be hot; that's how it works.

Sigh, we three are all over seventy; if one day one of us passes, what will you do alone?

Yang Qing went 'ptooey ptooey ptooey', spitting a few mouthfuls.

What nonsense are you spouting? We're fine, we're fine, let's go together.

Nobody can go first.

By then we'll have a big box made, and we'll all live together inside.

Just thinking about it is awesome.

And we'll put our recordings inside; then if someone comes to see us, we can also talk to them, thank them.

Chen Hong gave him another slap.

That would surely scare someone to death.

Yang Qing's spirits rose again.

Let me tell you, in the future Artificial Intelligence will come out, and each person will have one.

Just like a real person, you can chat and shoot the breeze; if no one comes to see us for a long time, they can still call and give them a scolding.

Just thinking about it is exciting.

I want to set a function: when unworthy descendants appear, I will possess a robot and beat that little bastard.

The family tradition must not be broken.

Chen Hong found his words dubious and gave a casual reply.

Alright, alright, alright, you're impressive, okay?

Chen Xueru still knows a bit about future technology.

Don't say that; in a few decades it might really be possible.

Saying that, she pulled out her phone.

In the sixties, could we imagine this thing?

Back then, if someone said that in a few decades we could, via a thing called a mobile phone, watch TV, listen to music, make calls, listen to the radio, even shop, and see each other from thousands of miles away……

I'd slap him to death; just dreaming, trying to fool my mother.

But look, this has been realized.

Qin Huairu thought about it and it really is.

Sigh, back then we were still digging for food in the dirt, hungry twice a day; compared to now, even a godlike life wouldn't be much better.

The world changes too fast; in the blink of an eye, things have changed, people are gone.
