Ti flies, and before you know it, the afternoon has arrived.
Lu Yu sat in his room. He didn't go to work at Victory Group, nor did he go out for a stroll. He was now sitting in front of his computer, watching a movie while keeping an eye on the latest developnts of the black account scandal online.
The online buzz about the black account was continuously rising. As of now, the original news had gone from seventy million views to one hundred forty million, and the number of comnts had surpassed the ten million mark!
The scale of these figures had reached a truly terrifying level. The power of public opinion had beco a massive mountain, blocking out the sky and sun, so overwhelming it was suffocating!
"Zhou Fengming, aren't you dying from this yet?"
Looking at the astonishing statistics on the webpage in front of him, Lu Yu's mouth slightly curled up, his face filled with a playful smile.
A hundred and forty million views, doubling since the morning—such traffic, along with the colossal number of comnts, also showed just how much attention the Zhou family's black account scandal had attracted this ti.
The impact was so severe, it was undoubtedly the hottest news of the year—without a doubt!
Thinking of this, Lu Yu clicked the mouse to refresh the page, wanting to see the recent statistics changes.
However, at this mont, an unexpected change occurred.
As soon as Lu Yu refreshed the page, the original news page instantly disappeared, replaced by the glaring words "Page Not Found", which stood out prominently on the webpage!
The webpage had been censored!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yu was montarily startled.
At the sa ti, he maintained a composed deanor, as his fingers flew over the keyboard, typing in other websites that had reposted the news, but the result was all the sa—other than the words "Page Not Found", the news couldn't be found anywhere!
Clearly, within just a few minutes, Zhou Fengming had finally made a move, instantly censoring all articles and news reports, attempting to halt the further spread of the event.
"Zhou Fengming, oh Zhou Fengming, couldn't hold back, could you?"
Looking at the words "Page Not Found" on the computer, Lu Yu's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a trace of a playful smile: "I originally thought you might co up with so sophisticated thods, but didn't expect you to use such a foolish maneuver!"
In his words, Lu Yu showed no trace of concern over the page being censored, rather, he carried a slight playful smile.
In Lu Yu's mind, he had considered many of Zhou Fengming's counterasures, but even he hadn't expected that Zhou Fengming would choose the stupidest option!
This news originally exposed so rather dark things, and the view count had reached a frightening one hundred forty million, with comnts breaking the ten million mark as well!
Moreover, this was just one website's data; there were data from many other websites he hadn't compiled!
At this point, Zhou Fengming's simple and crude censorship thod was stupid to the extre!
Originally, the news exposed the dark dealings up and down the Zhou family. This sort of black account had already enraged netizens who had seen the news, and now that the page was violently censored!
This behavior was simply like hiding a stolen item in plain sight, practically confirming that the reported matters were true.
The situation that was originally loud and public suddenly encountered violent censorship, a behavior that undoubtedly poured oil on the fire, definitely would instantly enrage the already emotionally agitated netizens!
Buzz!
As Lu Yu thought of this, his phone suddenly rang. He turned his head to look, and it was actually Chief Editor Zhang Ziqing from Flashpoint dia calling!
Seeing Zhang Ziqing's number, Lu Yu smiled slightly; now he knew, without a doubt, that Zhang Ziqing was calling about the webpage censorship.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu laughed, shook his head, picked up the phone, pressed the call button, and said, "Hello? Chief Editor Zhang."
"Mr. Lu, sothing bad has happened!"
As soon as the call connected, Zhang Ziqing's anxious voice instantly ca through: "The news article I just published was violently censored! I contacted several other dia outlets, and the ones that reposted my article were censored too!"
In his words, Zhang Ziqing sounded extrely anxious, for he was incredibly invested in this report given its potential impact on his bid for the Oriental News Award.
Hearing Zhang Ziqing's words, Lu Yu's mouth slightly curved up, revealing a playful smile.
Indeed, in this world, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests. If this had been any other editor, they would surely brush it off with the saying "the arm cannot twist the thigh," to absolve themselves of responsibility.
But Zhang Ziqing was not planning to do so, knowing this exclusive material Lu Yu provided was a rare opportunity, so if he played it well, his worth could easily multiply tenfold!
That's why Zhang Ziqing called to inform Lu Yu, hoping he might have so solutions.
After all, he didn't want to miss a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity!
"Chief Editor Zhang, don't worry."
Hearing these words, Lu Yu smiled slightly before speaking: "This problem isn't a big deal, and I already have a strategy prepared!"
In his words, Lu Yu's tone was calm and collected, conveying a sense of strategic confidence.
"You have a strategy?"
Upon hearing Lu Yu's words, Zhang Ziqing instantly perked up with a hint of excitent in his voice. He asked, "What strategy?"
His words carried an imnse urgency, even more so than Lu Yu.
"This matter is actually quite simple."
Upon hearing Zhang Ziqing's urgent tone, Lu Yu spoke with a smile, subtly making Zhang Ziqing his ally: "However, this issue requires you, Chief Editor Zhang, to step in personally. I'm wondering if you have the courage to do so?"
Within his words, Lu Yu's tone was low, posing a subtle inquiry.
This incident of violent censorship may seem daunting, but to Lu Yu, it isn't a significant issue. He already had a thod to handle it!
As long as Zhang Ziqing agrees to help him, Lu Yu could imdiately make Zhou Fengming's counterattack collapse in an instant!
