At that moment, Zhao Datong realized that everyone was cursing at him online because they had visited Xiaohe Village and found it was not as he had described!
"No, I can't go on like this. I'll be cursed to death! I need to delete all those posts I made earlier!"
Thinking this, Zhao Datong really started to panic. Before, he had dared to spread rumors because he thought that after reading what he had written, no one would go to Xiaohe Village!
As it turned out, people had gone to Xiaohe Village and seen the real Xiaohe Village!
That's why he knew that this time he had truly enraged the public, so he must handle this properly and quickly, otherwise, he would indeed be cursed to death!
"Don't shake, hand!"
Finding his hand trembling nonstop, he muttered quietly!
At that moment, he heard footsteps coming closer and closer!
After hearing this, he felt guilty and turned off his computer screen!
Afterwards, he 'indifferently' lifted his head and saw someone approaching!
Just as he was about to say something, he heard a very chilly voice, "Zhao Datong, the editor-in-chief is calling you!"
Hearing the editor-in-chief calling him, Zhao Datong's face slightly changed, and the next moment, very nervously he whispered, "The editor-in-chief is calling me? For what reason?"
Hearing Zhao Datong's question, the person coldly laughed, "How would I know? You'll find out if you go see him!"
When he heard this uncomfortable response, Zhao Datong wanted to say something else, but he saw the person turn around and leave!
"What's going on!"
Watching him leave directly, Zhao Datong knew something was wrong.
This person obviously had a grudge against him...
Actually, at this time, it wasn't only this person who had just left, but everyone in the newspaper office was displeased with him!
Because everyone knew that many people were canceling their subscriptions because of this jerk...
What bonuses they could get each month depended on the number of subscribers!
Simply put, because of Zhao Datong, their bonuses this month would be substantially reduced...
Naturally, their annoyance with Zhao Datong had reached extreme levels...
...
"Good luck if it is not a disaster, but disaster if it can't be avoided!"
Thinking this way, Zhao Datong directly went straight to the editor-in-chief!
After knocking on the door, he nervously said, "Editor-in-chief, did you call me?"
The editor-in-chief looked at Zhao Datong with a stern expression and said coldly, "Did I call you? Would I even dare! If I have wronged you in any way before, please don't hold it against me!"
"Editor-in-chief, what... what do you mean?"
"What do I mean? Of course, it means to please you well. Otherwise, you'll go online and spread rumors that I'm a jerk. What should I do then!"
"Editor-in-chief, stop joking. I wouldn't dare spread rumors!"
"Not dare? Aren't those rumors about Xiaohe Village online from you?"
"I..."
Seeing him lost for words, the editor-in-chief knew he had guessed correctly, and coldly chuckled, "I don't know why you did this, but now you need to publicly apologize! Got it?"
Hearing the editor-in-chief's words, Zhao Datong quickly said, "Impossible, those are all true! I can't apologize!"
"True? You're really stubborn! Fine, since you won't apologize, get out! Don't show up in front of me again!"
"Editor-in-chief, you... you think you can just dismiss me over this trivial matter?"
Zhao Datong was dumbfounded; he didn't expect the editor-in-chief to dismiss him over such a trivial issue!
Watching him stand there dazed, the editor-in-chief sneered, "Trivial? Do you know? Because of your stupidity, our newspaper is now facing endless criticism! Nearly ten thousand people are planning to cancel their subscriptions! Do you know? At this rate, we will have to shut down soon!"
"What? Nearly ten thousand people?"
"Yes! All thanks to your stupidity! While I'm still in a good mood, hurry up and get out!"
"You..."
Knowing he was determined to dismiss him, Zhao Datong panicked completely!
He knew the job was really good, so if he indeed lost it, he would be doomed!
Watching him still dumbly standing there, the editor-in-chief bellowed, "Get out!"
Completely panicked, he quickly knelt down, "Editor-in-chief, I will delete those posts I wrote right away, I promise I won't write recklessly again. Let me stay, please let me stay!"
"Now you're scared? Too late!"
The editor-in-chief, tired of the nonsense, frowned and immediately picked up the phone to call security. Soon, four security guards had dragged Zhao Datong out...
...
"Hu Xiaobei, it's all your fault that things have turned out like this, I will make you die! I will make you die!"
Thrown out and lying disheveled on the ground, he was frantically cursing when he heard footsteps, looked up, and saw a crowd angrily running towards him!
"That's Zhao Datong, the one who spread the rumors!"
"Hit him!"
"This scum deserves to die!"
Amid such furious shouting, everyone charged at him, and before Zhao Datong could react, he was beaten senseless...
Inside the newspaper office, the editor-in-chief, seeing Zhao Datong's miserable state, had no intention of helping and quickly said, "Now, issue a notification that Zhao Datong has been fired and has no further association with our newspaper! Moreover, start extensive positive coverage about Xiaohe Village on our newspaper's homepage!"
"Yes!"
The staff agreed and quickly left.
The editor-in-chief, watching everyone leave, tapped his desk lightly, thinking if there were any more ways to remedy the situation...
...
"Village chief, I saw Murong Qingqing doing a live broadcast in Xiaohe Village online, and now all the tourists are heading to Xiaohe Village! What do we do?"
At Zhaojialou, several village committee members spoke softly.
"I don't know either!"
Zhao Long was furrowing his brows in irritation.
He really regretted fleecing the tourists before, but he knew it was useless to say anything now...
"We..."
Before the person could finish, they heard hurried footsteps outside.
Soon, they saw many people from the village arriving...
Seeing that everyone looked very unhappy, Zhao Long frowned and shouted, "What's with you all? Bursting in here! Don't you know you should inform me before coming to my house? Do you no longer see me as the village chief?"
