Chapter 129 - Nailing the coffin shut? (3)

The entire venue became pin drop silent after Xu WanZhi’s question from the soul.

A little while later, someone raised their fist and said, “Miss Xu is right. We need to boycott the Cobra!”

“Boycott the Cobra!”

“Boycott the Qin’s!”

“We can’t allow the Cobra to launch!”

As the exhortation grew louder and louder, Xu WanZhi knew that she was very close to success.

“Everybody, quiet down and listen to one last thing that I want to say,” said Xu WanZhi as she raised up her hands to stop everyone from speaking their minds loudly. “We shouldn’t arrive at the conclusion that Cobra should be disqualified just from one picture and one face. That would simply be unfair. As we all know, Mr. Qin Sheng, CEO of the Qin’s, graduated Bin University and also studied abroad for a few years. He had earned very good grades in school and was the pride among Chinese students. Yet, nobody knows that during the time of his dissertation defense, he was actually not on campus, but had returned to China instead.”

The only reason Xu WanZhi knew all these was because she had read the original novel.

In the original novel, Qin Sheng and Liang ZhiQuan, as the male and female leads of the book, had a very extraordinary romance. One that was envied by most. And part of it was that when Liang ZhiQuan’s father was about to go bankrupt, Chang XiaoYa told it to Qin Sheng.

The two were broken up at the time but Qin Sheng worried about Liang ZhiQuan and finally ditched his dissertation and returned to the country to look for her.

That was when the two of them picked things back up again.

Even Xu WanZhi, when she was reading this part of the novel, was moved. But, after she had transmigrated, it had come to her attention that Qin Sheng, in doing so, had set himself perfectly for failure in the future.

Something that would follow him for life.

“Mr. Qin had returned to the country to help out Miss Liang ZhiQuan and her family’s business. Back then,” Xu WanZhi’s lips curved upward. “Miss Liang was still Mr. Mu ZhenYu’s fiancée. So, Mr. Qin came running back to the country to be the third wheel and, at the same time, missed the defense for his dissertation. And, if that’s the case, how did he end up earning his degree? I’m afraid he will be the only person who would be able to answer the question of how legitimate his degree truly is.”

Xu WanZhi watched the reaction among the crowd quietly. When the discussions from the crowd finally died down some, she smiled and said, “I have provided you with a lot of information today but, that is about all I can do. After all, I don’t have a say in Project Falcon nor am I in the position to opine on the qualifications of the Qin’s Corporation. As such, I place the responsibility into your hands. You are the last voice of this era and I hope that in the day and age when most people choose to remain silent, you will be able to fight for the fairness of tens and millions of people. Thank you.”

Xu WanZhi stood up and bowed at the audiences before she left the stage decisively.

The reporters applauded for a long time. After Xu WanZhi had disappeared behind the stage, the reports rushed up again, hoping for more information.

At this point in time, Fang Lin stood up as well and said, “Alright, everyone. If you have any more questions about Miss Xu’s acting career, you can ask me. I will address all of your questions.”

The security guards quickly rushed up to keep the venue under control and a perfect press conference had concluded.

Xu WanZhi had tossed out a long and logical inference. Xiao Yuan, listening next to Xu WanZhi the entire time, felt that it was an eye-opener. Following behind Xu WanZhi as they were on their way out, she couldn't help but looked at Xu WanZhi with admiration – that was an extremely good move on Miss Xu’s part. Normally speaking, when a scandal of this magnitude was dismissed -- finding out that the photos were fakes – ought to make the reporters very unhappy.

Many a time, when there were scandals, the ones involved were usually able to clear themselves in the end. Nevertheless, when the action of clearing one’s name was way weaker than the action of generating the scandal, this was very detrimental to those involved in the scandal.

When the melon-eaters were not pleased, the act of clearing one’s name would not be very effective. In fact, all effort might just be in vain.

This time, on the other hand, was different. While Xu WanZhi was clearing her own name, she had, at the same time, tossed out an even bigger melon. That way, the reporters, in the effort to find out more would dig and blow the incident up. So when the time came, Silver Star wouldn’t even need to do much and this incident would be resolved on its own.
