179: Chapter 179 Zhishu's Analysis

Since the goddess had spoken, what could young man say? Even if it shouldn't be, it had to be.

In any case, he would first coax the goddess to the venue. Even if Frontier Technology Company didn't release anything by then, his goal would still be achieved, wouldn't it?

Everything was for the first-hand news material, striving to complete a magnificent transformation.

As for this thing in the video...

Is this a new product from Frontier Technology Co., Ltd.?

Come to think of it, this thing really matches the silhouette on the promotional page.

But... what exactly is this? A spherical Drone? Or a spherical pet?

Or perhaps both?

Why would Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. release something like this?

After thinking for a long time without understanding, young man simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, the money was spent, the ticket was bought, and he couldn't get off the boat now, so he could only wait with peace of mind.

He casually opened the video editing software, imported the video the goddess had sent him, moved his fingers slightly, and began editing.

The editing was very simple, just adding some basic BGM and some simple captions. After a few minutes, a fresh short video was hot off the press.

He opened his video account, uploaded the edited short video, and named it "Spy Photos of Frontier Technology Company's Unreleased New Product".

He clicked publish, and it was done.

young man had made many such videos when he had nothing to do, so he was basically familiar with the process.

Even this video account used for publishing was one young man had registered casually and didn't manage carefully; his main job was still "Today's New Finance".

After cursing Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. again in his heart for being so broke that they even charged for tickets, young man suddenly chuckled.

He suddenly realized that he wasn't the only self-media person paying attention to this event; some official media, video accounts, studios, and other self-media outlets were all watching.

Doesn't that mean...

All these media outlets have to pay?

Want an interview? Please pay first.

Heh, this Frontier Company really knows how to make money.

...

young man's guess was not wrong.

Almost all the media were cursing right now, and the big media and official media were no exception.

Having worked in news media for so many years, they had never seen such a shameless company.

To think they would actually use their connection with the Chen Group to ride the hype.

Riding the hype was one thing, but they were actually charging a traffic fee!

That's right, in the eyes of all the media, this admission fee was just a traffic fee.

But... not going was really not an option.

Just look at the main characters in this event.

There was no need to even mention the Chen Group; it was a behemoth. For a wealthy family of this scale, even the smallest incident could directly hit the trending list, guaranteeing traffic.

Although the "Mark I System" had a small audience, its popularity was high. Backed by the Chen Group and holding the glorious record of defeating "Japan's Advanced [Technology]", it was impossible for people not to pay attention.

By comparison, Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. was the most obscure one, but because it held the "Mark I System" and grasped the Chen Group's lifeline, it had instead become even more sought-after than the Chen Group.

The attitude of Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. determined the rise and fall of the Chen Group.

With the three combined, the popularity exploded off the charts. Which media outlet could sit still?

So, let alone charging an admission fee of 288, even if it were 2888, they would have to bite the bullet and buy it!

This press conference had to be attended. Whoever didn't go would be left eating dirt behind their peers!

For a media outlet with ambition, who would want to eat the leftovers reheated by their peers every day?

No one would!

...

Beijing.

The familiar villa area, the familiar conference room.

Zhi Shu put down the documents in his hand, looked up at the old man and several other Middle-aged men appearing on the screen, and smiled.

"Zhi Shu, you took the initiative to convene this gathering. What is the matter? You can say it now."

The old man spoke indifferently.

"It hasn't been long since the last time you convened us. To hold a second meeting so quickly, Zhi Shu, do you have new ideas regarding the acquisition of the Chen Group that require our approval?"

A Middle-aged man spoke up.

"Gentlemen." Zhi Shu smiled and said, "I have presumptuously convened everyone this time, but it is not regarding matters of the Chen Group."

"If it is not about the Chen Group, I don't have much interest."

The Middle-aged man who spoke earlier said indifferently.

"It is my fault for not expressing myself clearly." Zhi Shu bowed slightly, indicating that he realized his mistake, and continued, "To be precise, it is not entirely about the Chen Group."

"Get straight to the point, Zhi Shu, time is limited." The old man raised his wrist and checked the time, "We will only give you ten minutes."

"Understood."

Zhi Shu nodded, stopped beating around the bush, and said directly, "The purpose of convening everyone this time is for this..."

He tapped his finger lightly on the name on the file bag.

"Frontier Technology Co., Ltd."

"Frontier Technology Co., Ltd.?" A Middle-aged man asked in confusion, "Is this that low-class small company under the Chen Group?"

"No, Director Ke." Zhi Shu shook his head, "As of today, we can no longer treat Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. as a subordinate of the Chen Group. Judging from the current situation, this Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. is completely independent of the Chen Group, and even holds the lifeline of the Chen Group."

"Even so, I still want to know why we need to deal with such a small company?" The Middle-aged man asked, puzzled, "Dealing with it brings us no benefit whatsoever."

"And it has nothing that would make it worth us dealing with it."

"There are three reasons to deal with it." Zhi Shu held up his fingers and said, "First, we can enrich our technology library. The 'Mark I System' is a very good operating system with high value."

"Second, dealing with this company can put the Chen Group in a passive position. Whether we stand by and watch or offer help in times of need, it is enough to disrupt Chen Zhongxuan's deployment and give us a better chance of winning."

"Third, this is a test for Frontier Technology Co., Ltd., including the Chen Group. If we can take it down swiftly, that would be even better. If we can't..."

"Gentlemen, forgive me for being blunt, but it will be time to fight with everything we have."

All the Middle-aged men, including the old man, suspected they had misheard.

"Zhi Shu, aren't you being overly anxious? A Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. is not worth such attention."

"It is indeed not worth attention right now." Zhi Shu nodded gently, then looked up, "But... what about the future?"

"I have learned about this Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. in detail. Do you know how long it took from its founding to holding the lifeline of the Chen Group and being able to influence the rise and fall of the Chen Group?"

Zhi Shu looked at the hesitant directors and said, enunciating each word clearly.

"Twenty-five days!"

"In just twenty-five days, its founder used software that appeared almost out of thin air to control the lifeline of a group valued at over one hundred billion!"

"This is not a coincidence, gentlemen, and I do not believe it is a coincidence."

"Are you saying..." A director said with a grave expression, "It is possible that this Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. has a background with the Chinese Government?"

"Not possible, but certain." Zhi Shu said indifferently, his tone certain, "Gentlemen, once this speculation is a fact, with your intelligence, I don't need to explain too much, right?"

Naturally, there was no need for Zhi Shu to explain. Everyone present was a smart person and understood what this meant.

This meant... the Chen Group had already entered the sight of the Chinese Government. The Chinese Government could no longer stand by and watch their actions, and had even intervened indirectly.

This did not conform to capitalist market rules, but this was China, which was inherently an unreasonable place.
