“We can’t just watch Star Brilliance Video grow! We have to do something!”
“That’s right! i can’t watch helplessly as Star Brilliance Video comes to take a share!”
“All of us should think about it, think of a way.”
The conference hall instantly fell silent. The few higher-ups present lowered their heads and pondered, looking like they would not stop until they suppressed Star Brilliance Video.
After a while, one of the higher-ups said, “I heard that the Ji family’s old master is thinking of ways to suppress Gu Xiao.”
“Isn’t Old Master Ji Gu Xiao’s biological grandfather?”
“How could you not know about such a big matter? Gu Xiao was chased out of the Ji family because she did not obtain the favour of the Ji family. That’s why she established Star Brilliance. From the looks of it, Old Master Ji hates Gu Xiao to the core!”
“But I heard that Ji Chen is the real boss of Ji Group, and Ji Chen is very close to Gu Xiao.”
“So what? Old Master Ji’s circle is much wider than Ji Chen’s. Even if we really go against Gu Xiao, Ji Chen won’t do anything to us because of Old Master Ji!”
“That makes sense. I’ll send someone to contact Old Master Ji now!”
More than a week after Star Brilliance Video was released, someone suddenly posted a Weibo post. The content of the Weibo post targeted Star Brilliance Video directly.
[I downloaded and registered an account for Star Brilliance Video because of “The Vanished Beauty”. However, not long after I registered my account on Star Brilliance Video, 1 realized that my phone began to receive some trashy messages and even scam calls! I now seriously suspect that Star Brilliance Video has sold our information!]
No one paid attention to this Weibo post when it first came out, but not long after, the popularity of this Weibo post began to continue to rise. There were even topics like #Star Brilliance Video Trading Viewer Privacy #, #Gu Xiao, come out and apologize! # on the trending searches.
As the topic became more and more popular, these two topics also attracted widespread attention.
Netizens were already sensitive to information security and privacy in the first place. When they saw such a topic and someone came out to testify, they immediately targeted Star Brilliance Video, Star Brilliance Entertainment, and Gu Xiao.
[Star Brilliance Entertainment actually did such a thing? 1 was a fan, but now I’ve become a hater. I’ll trample on them for the rest of my life!]
[I believe in Star Brilliance Video and Gu Xiao. Gu Xiao would never do such a thing!]
[Commenter above, don’t keep insisting on their innocence anymore. I also went on Star Brilliance Video to take a look just now and realized that Star Brilliance Video needs to authorize a lot of things! Phone number, photo album, memory space, even chat software like WeChat needs to be authorized for it!]
[Oh my god! My entire body is numb! With the authorization of the photo album and memory space, is Star Brilliance Video able to conduct operations to look at the photo album and the things we saved at will? In that case, what privacy do we have!]
[Why didn’t anyone investigate such a serious matter? Punish Star Brilliance Video and Gu Xiao severely! Isn’t the privacy of us citizens important?!]
With someone fanning the flames, Star Brilliance Video and Gu Xiao completely became the target of everyone in the circle.
Even some passers-by joined the team to suppress Star Brilliance Video after seeing these topics.
Tian Xian looked at the increasingly intense news online and knew that someone was targeting their Star Brilliance Video. This matter was too serious. Tian Xian immediately called Gu Xiao and explained the matter swiftly.
Gu Xiao, who was originally relaxing with Chu An, immediately retreated from Chu An’s arms after hearing Tian Xian’s words.
She hung up the phone with a serious expression, picked up her phone, and logged into Weibo.
Seeing Gu Xiao’s change, Chu An leaned over. “What happened?”
“Someone exposed on Weibo that Star Brilliance Video is buying and selling users’ privacy!”
Hearing this, Chu An immediately realized the seriousness of this matter, and his expression became serious.
However, when he saw Gu Xiao’s dark expression, he still comforted her. “Don’t worry, we don’t have to be afraid because we didn’t do it.. What’s more important now is to find evidence that can refute these accusations!”
