Chapter 1182: Chapter 1158: How to Fight This Battle?

In the hotel room where Lin Ke was staying, Bai Xiaosheng and three others gathered around the sofa. There were four laptops on the coffee table.

It was already 10 o’clock in the evening.

Just now, Bai Xiaosheng had analyzed the new articles that appeared online in the past few hours and revised the initial analysis report, which he shared with the three others.

The analysis was done by Bai Xiaosheng himself, without any help from others.

However, Bai Xiaosheng also mentioned that he was not working on this alone. Zunbai Zhisheng, a business data service company, provided the data support.

Bai Xiaosheng said that the company had his friends, so getting some data was no problem at all.

Lin Ke finally had her realization.

Knowing that Bai Xiaosheng was not really "non-human", she felt inexplicably relieved.

Lin Ke knew about Zunbai Zhisheng that provided the data; it was a big data company even Elder Xia praised, and the group was also planning to cooperate with them.

She didn’t expect that Bai Xiaosheng knew people from Zunbai Zhisheng, and it seemed he was acquainted with someone high up!

With this knowledge, Lin Ke also understood why Bai Xiaosheng could analyze those pieces of information so quickly.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying, being close to Bai Xiaosheng, naturally knew that Zunbai Zhisheng was truly "one of their own."

But since Bai Xiaosheng did not expose it, they naturally couldn’t mention it.

It wasn’t that they didn’t trust Lin Ke, but they wanted to avoid many unnecessary troubles.

After all, Bai Xiaosheng was still young to become a Senior Affairs Officer, let alone control such a powerful data analysis company in Asia-Pacific, many things said would need explanations.

Now was not the time for explanations.

In fact, neither Lin Ke, Lin Weiwei, nor Lei Ying knew.

Initially, Bai Xiaosheng did not notify anyone from Zunbai Zhisheng.

Because he could handle this analysis work by himself!

And he could do it even better!

After all, Red Lotus’s efficiency was unparalleled!

Nearly instantly, Red Lotus could retrieve all articles online.

Content comparison, content analysis, situation prediction...

Human brains simply could not compare!

Bai Xiaosheng acted as a "checker" and a "thinker" based on the results generated by Red Lotus.

There was plenty of time.

Now, the report analyzing the media strategy of the opposition was ready and updated.

According to the situation, it was time for Bai Xiaosheng and his team to take action.

"Actually, I’ve handled many crisis events before," Lin Ke began, "but each time, they didn’t happen to me, so I didn’t feel much. Today, happening directly to me, it completely baffled me; fortunately, you came, or I would remain clueless."

Lin Ke was right.

This time, if Bai Xiaosheng hadn’t arrived timely for comfort.

She probably couldn’t even stay calm.

"But I am still very confused, having no good ideas. I must rely on you to make arrangements this time; I will follow your command," Lin Ke seriously told Bai Xiaosheng, "Now, what should we do!"

Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

"In crisis incident management, if it’s a corporation, they must step forward immediately to take all the questions and responsibilities, be clear and decisive, and not slow to respond, showing a responsible attitude and quick action. Otherwise, the situation will further deteriorate."

"For individuals, the principles are similar!"

"Silence implies agreement. Rebuttals, without evidence, appear weak. But ultimately, one has to present a stance!"

With that said, Lin Ke was startled, "It’s been several hours now! Are we too late?"

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying exchanged smiles.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled at Lin Ke, "On our way here, I had already arranged for lawyers to file a defamation lawsuit against Wu Media Group at Qinggang Court, accusing them of misrepresentation and violating media fairness principles."

"Regarding the quality issues of the Qinggang Yunhe project, I’ve applied for a third-party to conduct a quality investigation to prove that there is no need for so-called cover-ups and buying off public opinion in this project because it exists only minor flaws."

"I also had the headquarters issue a report under your name, an approved compensation plan for the Qinggang Yunhe project owners, to demonstrate your proactive attitude in handling this situation!"

"Thank you for explaining things to Elder Xia in advance. He approved this matter just before Shen Peishen and others initiated the public opinion at headquarters."

"These three things were done even before the media stirred up the matter!"

Bai Xiaosheng smiled, "Although it seems like it didn’t make much noise in this wave of public opinion, luckily we acted early enough. Consider it as laying down three nails as foreshadowing, as long as we amplify our voice promptly, it will bring us unexpected joys later!"

What Bai Xiaosheng said surprised Lin Ke.

He was actually analyzing the situation and implementing counter-strategies during his journey!

That’s fast!

And his thoughts are so clear!

Lin Ke stared in amazement, genuinely impressed.

"That’s not all we have done." Lin Weiwei whispered with a smile.

When Lin Weiwei looked at Bai Xiaosheng, her eyes were full of admiration.

How can one’s thoughts be so agile and comprehensive!

Xiaosheng, truly worthy of being the youngest Senior Affairs Officer in history.

Lei Ying also looked emotional, feeling extremely convinced.

"I really see you in a new light now, Xiaosheng the Senior Affairs Officer!"

Listening to Lin Weiwei, Lin Ke couldn’t help but exhale deeply, feeling an implicit worship towards Bai Xiaosheng for the first time.

She wanted to thank him again, but she knew Bai Xiaosheng didn’t like that sort of thing and wasn’t one for affectation.

Changing the subject, Lin Ke asked, "So... what do we do now?"

Bai Xiaosheng pondered briefly, then said, "Shen Peishen and his group are leveraging both internal and external public opinion to force the headquarters’ hand, pushing this matter to nearly uncontrollable limits to compel the headquarters to deal with us and quell the storm. What do you think we should do?"

Bai Xiaosheng must have some ideas, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so interested and relaxed to encourage a ’brainstorming session.’

Seeing him so composed, Lin Ke felt an inexplicable sense of security.

She settled her mind and hesitantly suggested, "Could we engage them in a public opinion battle?"

Turn their strategy against them.

Public opinion isn’t like other things; you can’t delay or dodge indefinitely.

If someone accuses us and we do not respond, it becomes a case of repeated lies becoming truth, pushing the uninformed public to stand against us.

If the opponent’s momentum strengthens, our side will inevitably weaken. Like colliding waves, the bigger wave prevails without doubt.

Lin Ke’s suggestion made Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying nod as well.

"A public opinion battle? We’re not scared; Xiaosheng is good friends with Lu Qingfeng from Tengyun Group! We have connections in online media!" Lin Weiwei said.

Lin Ke was startled, "Bai Xiaosheng, you know Lu Qingfeng?! He’s the future helmsman of Tengyun!"

Lin Ke was utterly shocked.

If only she knew that Bai Xiaosheng had a decade-long promise with Lu Yun, was not only friends with Lu Qingfeng but also close buddies with Lu Yun’s future son-in-law, she’d be even more amazed.

"Using some contacts, we can also pull in more influencers to support us and even cause the opponent’s influencers to defect," Lei Ying suggested.

Not just the Lu Family, but also support could be sought from Master Song Kai, whose influence spreads far and wide, yet another terrifying card yet to be played.

Seeing the trio’s heated discussion, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly laughed.

"A battle of public opinion, fought through media, indeed the thought process is correct."

"But with this to-and-fro bombardment, we are actually still at a disadvantage."

"How about taking a more unconventional approach?"

Hearing Bai Xiaosheng suggest this, Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying, and Lin Ke looked at him curiously.

"So, how exactly should we tackle this delayed public opinion battle?" Lin Ke asked.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

"How to fight? Well, that would naturally be—"

"Seizing the headlines!"
