Chapter 732: Popularity Soars
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As the popularity continued to rise, the number of comments increased visibly.
“Boycott, boycott. The Huo Corporation is not the only good brand in the
market.”
Boycott +1. If one used this thing one day, he might probably not have time to prepare his last words.
-Let’s be honest. We threw away everything related to the Huo Corporation, but even the waste collectors didn’t want them.
Public opinion was surging on the Internet, and almost all comments were negative. Even if a few people appeared occasionally to sincerely say good things, they would be drowned by many rumors.
That day, the share price fell to a shocking level, so much so that the Huo Corporation’s board of directors held a meeting.
“They said that they just want to hold a meeting, but aren’t they’re just putting pressure on you.” Ye Zhen was indignant.
He often followed Huo Yichen, so he had naturally seen the faces of the board
of directors.
Usually, when the President was earning money for a project, they would not say anything. Now that something had happened, they all jumped out to point fingers at Huo Yichen.
Huo Yichen’s expression remained the same. “Watch this matter closely.”
He had a feeling that this matter might not be over yet.
No matter what, the meeting had to be held.
When Huo Yichen brought Ye Zhen to the meeting room, other than him, the other board members seemed to have agreed on something this time. They waited for him to enter and their gazes landed on him.
“It’s rare for everyone to be on time.” Huo Yichen spoke first and sat in the middle. His face was still as calm as water under everyone’s gazes.
“If not for you causing such a huge commotion, would the few of us bother to come over?” One of the old members said.
Right on the heels of that, someone echoed, “President Huo, don’t blame me
for putting it badly.”
-We all believe in you, which is why we believe that you can take on this position and control the Huo Corporation’s direction.”
“But what happened today—”
This hesitant tone was quickly followed by the next person. “The Huo Corporation’s loss in a day alone is an astronomical figure!
As long as someone started, the rest of the words would naturally come out of everyone’s mouth smoothly.
The originally quiet meeting room was vaguely as noisy as a market at this moment.
Countless gazes stabbed at Huo Yichen like knives. On the surface, they said that they wanted Huo Yichen to give an explanation, but in fact, their hidden motives were all impure.
The position of President of the Huo Corporation had been coveted by many people for a long time.
However, everything had been smooth sailing for Huo Yichen after he took over previously. Nothing had gone wrong before. This time, something bad happened. Although they had yet to find out who was behind this, everyone present was familiar with stabbing someone in the chaos.
“Everyone,” Huo Yichen said under the accusatory voices.
The meeting room immediately fell silent.
Huo Yichen placed his hands on the table. His cold gaze seemed to be able to see through everyone’s thoughts as it swept across everyone’s faces.
He said calmly, ‘TH investigate this matter thoroughly. At the same time, I have the same feelings for the Huo Corporation as everyone else.”
“As for the decline in the stock price, I’ll also give a corresponding strategy to recover the losses. I also hope that some people won’t be bewitched by the wind and rain—”
Even though it was one against many, Huo Yichen was not at a disadvantage in the conference room.
In just a few words, Ye Zhen saw Huo Yichen mute the board members who were trying to cause trouble.
However, this matter definitely had to be investigated thoroughly.
He did not dare to say anything else, but in terms of quality control, Huo Yichen had the highest demands and was most confident in.
When public opinion on the Internet gradually went out of hand, the Huo Corporation also made the corresponding announcement.
However, it could not dispel the “passion” of the netizens. Almost as soon as the announcement was released, a group of people squeezed below and began to flood the screen.
This matter had caused a huge commotion, so after Murong Qiao, who was still in the company, saw it, she immediately called Huo Yichen.
■■Ah Chen? How is it on your side? I saw on the Internet-” Murong Qiao asked worriedly when she heard the call go through.
Huo Yichen’s originally cold expression instantly melted when he heard Murong Qiao’s voice coming from the other end of the cell phone.
He comforted his girlfriend slowly. “I’ve already gotten someone to deal with it. Don’t worry.”
If someone died, they should definitely compensate and deal with the family’s loss. However, Huo Yichen knew there was more than meets the eye.
“Are you really fine?” Murong Qiao frowned.
CG was in the entertainment industry. Murong Qiao knew as much about the storms on the Internet as anyone else. Now that she saw that something had happened to the Huo Corporation, she immediately called.
Huo Yichen naturally did not want Murong Qiao to worry.
In order not to let Murong Qiao focus on this aspect and worry, Huo Yichen simply changed the topic.
“Are you coming home tonight?” he asked.
Ever since she said that she was going to An Nuo’s house, Huo Yichen had been alone for three days.
Murong Qiao nodded. “Yes, I’ll get off work on time tonight.”
How could she still stay at An Nuo’s house after such a thing had happened?
Murong Qiao couldn’t tell anything from the voice on the phone. She was still a little worried about the other party, so she hung up after saying a few words to Huo Yichen and prepared to pack up and go home after work.
The sky gradually faded, and the blue color disappeared as time passed. In its place was the after-work dusk that was the favorite of the working class. After informing Jiang Chi, Murong Qiao was about to head home. However, just as she left the office, she saw the employees gathered in twos and threes, as if they were discussing something.
Out of concern for the employees, Murong Qiao glanced at her watch and saw that there was still time, so she walked over lightly.
-Hey have you been paying attention to the award ceremony recently? I’m even prepared to watch the live-stream on that night. Perhaps the winner will be my goddess!”
“Of course. I haven’t missed out on surfing the Internet for a day, but I’m more concerned about the rumors from before. Didn’t they say that Director Zhang is preparing to film a new movie? I really like his work!”
“That’s not even confirmed yet. He didn’t even say anything.
-What if? Director Zhang hasn’t produced a work in a long time. I even feel that there might not be a series in my lifetime… If it really comes out this time, I’ll definitely support it with both hands and feet!
“Don’t. I think the award ceremony is more reliable. At the very least, according to the news, it will start in about ten days. Not to mention anything else, I think very highly of our company.”
Hearing everyone’s discussion, Murong Qiao was about to ask for more detailed information when the notification from the elevator that they had reached the ground floor stopped her.
Thinking of Huo Yichen, Murong Qiao exited the elevator.
With something on her mind, she naturally did not feel as comfortable on the way home as usual. She even opened the door in a hurry.
The moment the door opened, a fragrance wafted into Murong Qiao’s nose, arousing her appetite.
The soft bean curd stewed served as a complement to the streaky pork. The alluring fragrance of the sauce filled the kitchen, and there were even some potato pieces.
just by smelling it, the corresponding ingredients had already subconsciously appeared in Murong Qiao’s mind.
The nervousness in her heart suddenly disappeared without a trace because of this smell. Then, she felt at ease and at peace upon returning home..
