131: Guan Youwei was arrested

"Yes, Guan, your move was too brilliant. Not only did it suppress the arrogance of Little Bee, but it also heavily promoted Peng Chi Technology Co., Ltd., attracting a large number of orders. It's like killing two birds with one stone!" Xiao Zhuli (Little Assistant) said, giving a thumbs-up.

"There are more and more netizens now, but there aren't many who can think rationally. They get tricked as soon as they are fooled. And those who can think rationally see so many crazy comments and feel there's no need to argue with those fools. Their arrogant attitude of 'the clear will clear themselves' allows the madness to run rampant. Even if someone can't help but express a different opinion, the volume is too small and gets drowned out, leading to this one-sided situation online. Let's put it this way, no matter how New Hope clarifies now, no one will believe it, hahaha." Guan Youwei laughed so hard his eyes were slits.

At this moment, police cars departed from the public security bureau, heading in four different directions, speeding towards the detected MCN Companies.

After the police entered the MCN Companies, they were stunned by what they saw: the companies weren't large, just a few offices and a few people, but each office was filled with shelves stacked up to the ceiling. Each layer of every shelf was filled with mobile phones. One room alone had thousands of phones, all connected to a central control system. One person could operate thousands of phones. These phones were linked to tens of thousands of accounts, used to post various paid texts, comments, reposts, and likes online.

One person was equivalent to an army of thousands, and a few people could stir up the internet into chaos.

"Don't move, you are under arrest! Stand against the wall, don't even think about escaping!" the police shouted loudly.

These online gangs that had been running rampant on the internet were so scared their legs turned to jelly when they saw the police arrive, and they immediately raised their hands in surrender.

After rigorous interrogation, the police finally learned that the mastermind behind these MCN Companies was the Boss of Peng Chi Technology Co., Ltd., Guan Youwei!

"Let's go arrest Guan Youwei immediately. The contracts they signed and the financial transactions are all evidence," said Officer A.

"Without delay, apply for the arrest warrant immediately, bring those documents, and set off at once," said the Police Chief.

While Guan Youwei was feeling smug, the police had already arrived outside the gates of Peng Chi Technology Co., Ltd..

"Is your Boss in?" Officer B asked the security guard sternly.

"Yes, yes, yes, he came early this morning. I haven't seen his car leave today either." Seeing so many police looking for the Boss, the security guard felt something big was wrong.

"Take us to him, now," Officer A ordered.

The security guard, of course, didn't dare object and honestly led a dozen police officers to the Boss's office.

The office door was open. Guan Youwei was also surprised to see a group of police officers walking towards him.

But on the surface, he maintained a calm expression: "Oh dear, why are so many police comrades visiting? What can I do for you?"

"Are you Guan Youwei?" Officer A asked sternly.

"Yes, I am Guan Youwei. What's wrong?" Seeing this situation, Guan Youwei felt a little guilty.

"You are under arrest! You have the right to remain silent, but anything you say will be used as evidence in court," Officer B said, holding up the arrest warrant.

"Ah? What crime did I commit? Why are you arresting me?" Guan Youwei shouted loudly, pretending to be confused and innocent.

At this moment, Xiao Zhuli (Little Assistant) stood aside, too scared to utter a sound. He was afraid he might be arrested too.

But the police seemed to be only targeting Guan Youwei. They took him and left.

A few days later, a piece of news on the internet caught the public's attention: The Boss of Peng Chi Technology Co., Ltd. was arrested for hiring internet trolls to try and bring down a competitor.

The news detailed how Guan Youwei spent money to hire internet trolls to manipulate public opinion, slandering and spreading rumors about the New Hope Xiao Mifeng Drone. The article concluded by stating: The only way to truly curb cyber violence and online rumors is through the concentrated power of the rule of law! Victims must be given the sense of security that comes from the law, and the law must become the most effective weapon against online gangs.

At the same time, we hope every kind and righteous person can stand up, resist online rumors and online gangs, and contribute to the progress of social civilization! We hope everyone believes that justice will prevail!

As soon as this news was released, it immediately caused another huge uproar on the internet.

"I can't believe the Boss of Peng Chi Technology Co., Ltd. is so disgusting? I need to quickly return their drone."

"This Guan Youwei is too wicked, actually spreading rumors about the Xiao Mifeng Drone."

"It's true that you know a person's face but not their heart. This Peng Chi Technology Co., Ltd. Boss is simply an online gang member."

"He must be going to jail, right? Should Peng Chi Technology Co., Ltd. go bankrupt?"

Amidst the netizens' discussions, a military video from Dragon Country also attracted everyone's attention.

In the video, the military's new Longteng drone was undergoing test flights. A narration in the video prominently stated: "Xiaohang Drones selflessly donated their design blueprints to our military. Based on these blueprints, we have developed this Longteng drone after modifications. Its size hasn't changed, but its technical parameters have been greatly improved, making it a world-class military drone!"

This video caused an immediate sensation. The comments below were incredibly lively.

"I can't believe New Hope is so generous, selflessly contributing to the country's military development and not even explaining when they were wronged."

"Yes, if it weren't for this video, how would we know they selflessly donated the design blueprints?"

"This is good deeds being rewarded. Otherwise, if the Xiao Mifeng Drone was truly slandered and cursed because of Guan Youwei's rumors and defamation, causing problems for New Hope, that would be truly disgusting."

"Fortunately, the country investigated thoroughly and arrested all those online gangs."

"From now on, if our company needs to buy drones, we'll buy Little Bees."

"Our mall is preparing to open a Xiao Mifeng Drone counter, specifically selling Little Bees."

"I'd better quickly place an order for a Xiao Mifeng Drone to show my support!"

In the New Hope office, Liu Xiaolin looked at the public opinion online, which had taken a 180-degree turn, and finally felt at ease.

It seems that when encountering problems, one still has to rely on the law and the police. Otherwise, even with a hundred mouths, he couldn't explain clearly. Now that the police have issued a blue-background, white-text announcement, it's the best way to debunk the rumors.

"General Manager Liu, good news! Our Xiao Mifeng Drones have been snapped up by netizens, with 100,000 units already bought, and many businesses are coming to discuss cooperation with us. I'm almost too busy to handle it all!" Rong Yiwang walked in without knocking and said excitedly in a loud voice.

Hearing this good news, Liu Xiaolin naturally couldn't stop smiling.

He didn't expect that after this crisis was successfully resolved, it could bring about such a huge sensation. It could be said to be a blessing in disguise.

However, with the increase in sales, a problem arose.
