"This…you're not really collecting rent for 400 buildings, are you?”Although Yang Kang, who knew about the trending topic, wasn't as surprised as Hu Qing 'an, he was still a little stunned when he saw Chen Ye admit it to his face.
He originally thought that the entry was fake and that there must be some reason he didn't know.
According to Chen Ye…
This…seemed to be true?
But wasn't this too f * cking ridiculous?
The three families had been friends since their parents 'generation and had known each other since they were young.
Why did you suddenly say that you have 400 buildings to rent?
Who would believe that?
"You might not believe it, but a few days ago, when I went downstairs to buy something, I met an old man who fell down. I thought that I had some money in my pocket and it shouldn't be a problem to help him up, so I…"
Chen Ye, who had long expected their reaction, immediately took out the excuse he had prepared.
It was probably because the old man had fallen. As a righteous and promising young man, he was not afraid of being blackmailed and went up to help him.
Then, the old man was a big renter and did not have any children, so he gave all 400 buildings under his name to him.
This kind of lousy story was naturally hard to believe. Chen Ye also knew that these two would not be so stupid to be fooled by him like this.
After all, the old man had 400 buildings under his name. He didn't even bring a bodyguard or nanny when he went out. He even needed a passerby to help him up when he fell?
Furthermore, he was given 400 buildings and tens of billions of assets just because someone helped him?
Even a f * cking TV series wouldn't dare to shoot like this!
However, Chen Ye's words were not to make them believe him. He was just sending them a signal.
I do have 400 buildings, but it's not convenient for me to tell you how I got them.
Anyway, he definitely wouldn't say anything about the system for no reason.
It wasn't that he didn't trust the two of them, but this kind of thing was too shocking. If he said it, their worldviews would probably explode.
As expected, after listening to Chen Ye's nonsense.
Yang Kang and Hu Qing 'an didn't continue asking.
After pondering for a while, Yang Kang tactfully stopped asking about the source of the 400 buildings and asked,"
"The problem now is that someone is adding fuel to the fire from behind and pushing you to the Internet to attract hatred. How do you plan to deal with it?”
"You should know who's behind this, right?”Chen Ye asked Yang Kang.
Yang Kang nodded and did not deny it.
Then, he said with some difficulty,
"Although the other party placed the order anonymously, I can roughly know who it is from the information of the sender.”
"But I can tell you who's pulling the aggro on you, but I'm afraid I can't provide you with any specific information or evidence.”
"In our line of work, you should know that even if the order is rejected, the customer's information must not be disclosed.”
Chen Ye wasn't too surprised to hear his words, nor did he have any intention of blaming him for not helping him.
Their company that did data was worth tens of millions.
If their company stepped forward this time and exposed the mastermind behind the purchase of data, they would definitely not be able to survive in the industry in the future.
After all, no matter what he did, buying data was still a shameful thing.
For someone to do such a thing, they naturally had to choose a reliable company that could protect their customers 'information.
Therefore, he was very clear about Yang Kang's difficulties, so he naturally wouldn't blame him.
"So who is adding fuel to the fire?”Hu Qing 'an, who had been watching from the side, couldn't help but ask.
"Penguin!" Yang Kang said.
"Penguin Group has recently been caught up in a user privacy storm. Its reputation is very bad now, and it has been suppressing the trending searches recently.”
"According to the information from the sender, and Penguin has the motive to put you on the hot search list to attract the attention of the public, so Penguin definitely didn't run away.”
"Actually, they had placed a few orders with our company before, and they were all trending. However, it was useless for those few trending searches to be on the top. They fell down not long after. They couldn't attract the public's attention at all, and it just so happened that your rent collection this time became popular.”
"Penguins?" Chen Ye nodded thoughtfully.
Some time ago, Penguin's Wenyue Group was exposed to be an overlord of contracts, exploiting authors as bonded workers, causing a huge storm on the Internet.
Later, it was revealed that Penguin's software was suspected of privately deleting photos from users 'phones.
During this period of time, Penguin was in constant turmoil.
He definitely had the motive to buy a trending topic to attract attention.
However, things would be a little difficult if they were targeted by a domestic Internet giant like Penguin.
However, even though it was difficult, he, Chen Ye, was not a punching bag that could be easily bullied.
Penguin had treated him like a human and pushed him out to block the bullet. He was not to be trifled with.
However, if he wanted to make Penguin feel bad, he would have to use Yang Kang's data company.
But friends were friends, brothers were brothers.
Chen Ye wouldn't let Yang Kang give up a company worth tens of millions for his own sake.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Ye said to Yang Kang,"
"Why don't you transfer the data company to me? I'll exchange it for an office building in Central. It's an 18-story building in an ordinary location. It's worth about 300 to 400 million.”
Yang Kang was speechless.
Hu Qing 'an was speechless.
