Guangdong City.
Tianhe business district.
"We're here! It's on the Penguin Group's ranking list!" said a man, pointing at the entrance of the hot pot restaurant.
"It's from the Penguin Group! Is there a problem? It's still circulating tonight!" a female colleague said worriedly.
"You're worrying too much! Look at how many people are there! And what's happening on the Internet are just individual cases that have been deliberately exaggerated!" the man said with a smile.
Several people walked in.
The waiter was also very enthusiastic. We ordered a lot of things, and we calculated that it would be half the price if we used Penguin Group.
Everyone's favorable impression of the Penguin Group increased instantly, after all, it could allow them to get more benefits.
It was a simple dinner, and a few people had a lot of fun eating it.
Suddenly, the female colleague who was speaking covered her chest with her hands and her face became extremely ugly.
The chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground, and only then did his colleague next to him notice it.
I asked quickly, but the female colleague only felt discomfort in her chest and some stomach cramps.
Even raising my hands was very difficult.
Afterwards, other colleagues all felt something was wrong with their bodies and experienced the same chest pain.
They made quite a lot of noise, and the people nearby looked over.
"What happened?"
"Call an ambulance!"
"Several people together, probably food poisoning!"
All the customers were so frightened that they quickly put down their chopsticks and dared not eat anymore.
The restaurant manager also saw it. After sending them to the ambulance, he immediately called the boss to report the matter.
After all, this is not a trivial matter. It would be even more serious if someone really died.
As soon as the incident happened, it was posted on the Internet, and all the customers who were still dining in the restaurant left without a single one left!
Hospital, it was just a Weibo post from the guests who dined together.
Soon, the #Penguin group buying poisoning incident# spread across the Internet and became a hot topic.
Netizens couldn't help themselves and went straight to all the official accounts of Penguin and started leaving messages.
Moreover, the words were very unpleasant, and all the executives of Penguin were greeted one by one.
Naturally, Boss Ant was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.
...
…
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Goose City, Penguin Building.
The conference room was filled with fog.
Liu Zhiping and his team stayed up all night.
"Bang!"
The door to the conference room opened and Boss Ant walked in.
"What happened?" Boss Ant didn't sleep well last night because of the sudden accident in Yue City.
Hearing what Boss Ant said, everyone stood up quickly.
"Boss, the results are out!" Liu Zhiping said with a grim expression.
"Speak." Boss Ant said quickly.
"What happened last night has been investigated. The customer was admitted to the hospital due to food poisoning. Fortunately, nothing happened! It was found that the Guangdong City ranking list was due to private transactions, and some unworthy businesses were included in the list, and they operated in violation of regulations, which led to this incident!" Liu Zhiping looked at Boss Ant cautiously.
"Private transaction, behind-the-scenes manipulation, bastard!" Boss Ant roared angrily.
"All personnel involved have been dismissed and held accountable for legal consequences! This is just a matter on the Internet..." Liu Zhiping did not dare to continue.
"Have the diners received compensation?" asked Boss Ant.
"The negotiations have been completed and full compensation has been given!" Liu Zhiping said hurriedly.
"Let them post a Weibo to clarify, and the merchant should also post a Weibo to take responsibility. Let the public relations department handle the rest!" Boss Ant said helplessly.
"Yes!" Liu Zhiping replied softly.
"I don't want to hear such things again!" Then he turned and left.
Boss Ant returned to the office. He was quite tired because of the problems that suddenly occurred in the Penguin Group recently. I was a little curious why such a thing had never happened in the YY group. Suddenly, I remembered the list of unscrupulous merchants that Ye Xuan had exposed at the time, and I figured out the reason.
After being handled by the public relations department, both the user and the merchant issued clarifications on Weibo, and the Penguin Group successfully extricated itself.
Boss Ant probably couldn't imagine what happened next.
...
YY headline page.
"The Dark Inside Story of the Penguin Group!" "
"Using Penguin Group, I won a million in compensation and became a winner in life! "
"Internal Corruption, Penguin Group Rankings are Subject to Secret Manipulation! "
"Want to become a millionaire overnight and change your life! Come and use Penguin Group to make everything no longer a dream! "
"Penguin Group, achieve your dreams, and become millionaires long ago!" "
In order to attract attention, bah, and to let netizens see the truth, the self-media people on YY Headlines have tried their best.
The content on the headlines spread quickly throughout the entire Internet.
Everyone was extremely excited this morning. They thought the Penguin Group incident was over, but due to the merchant's negligence, some people got food poisoning. Now it seems that there is something deeper hidden behind it.
The Penguin Group has an unshirkable responsibility, and the general public has been discussing this topic for a long time.
There are countless posts on Weibo.
"The Penguin Group is unquestionably responsible for the serious consequences caused by their eagerness for quick success!"
"The Penguin Empire is in decline, and disasters are frequent."
"Penguin, it's no longer an empire!"
"The fall of the penguin marks the end of an era."
"Comparison is harmful, the difference between the Penguin Group and the YY Group is clear!"
....
This incident caught Penguin off guard.
The public relations department had already completed negotiations with Weibo, and all the events had been clarified. However, we did not expect that YY Toutiao would continue to hold on to the matter and even revealed more inside information.
For a moment, the public relations department was in a state of panic.
"Boss, what do we do? We just suppressed the matter, and now it's arisen again!" asked the PR employee with some headache.
"This matter is indeed tricky. I didn't expect those self-media on YY Headlines to pursue it so relentlessly. But now that the two parties involved have been dealt with, we are not afraid of them! Issue a notice!" The head of the public relations department said helplessly. *
