Chapter 550 - Everyone Is In Shock
Chapter 550: Everyone Is In Shock
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
The next day!
Early morning.
For most people, a new day was a new beginning, but for some, it was another day of misery.
One of the finest hotels in Shanghai.
Thud!
There was a loud knock on the door.
“Professor Yang, quickly! Open the door! Something bad just happened,” a forty-year-old professor’s face was in a panic, as if something big had just happened.
Behind him were also a few other professors and they looked as if they had seen a ghost. It was like they had never thought this would ever happen.
“What happened?” a hoarse voice emanated from the room, his tone somewhat annoyed after being woken up that early in the morning.
Professor Yang opened his door and saw a group of his colleagues outside the door, their faces pale and worried. “What thing happened?”
“Something big, let’s go in and discuss this.”
…
Inside the room.
“What?!”
Professor Yang’s face turned pale after hearing the bad news.
“What do we do now? The video has spread online. If we don’t think of a solution, our reputations would be at stake.”
“How dare he do this? Doesn’t he know the consequences of this?”
Suddenly, Professor Yang’s eyes widened after realizing what had just happened, his face full of regret. “Shit, that video was taken at that time. I realized it but didn’t remember it. I never thought he would use that against us in the end to pressure us. We have to contact him to take down the video to prevent it from spreading further.”
“It looks like it’s too late. The video was posted this morning at six, and it was the news agencies that posted it. It’s already trending on Weibo.”
“Then what do we do now? You guys saw the video- if you don’t think of an idea now, we might all be screwed.”
“It isn’t a ‘might’ anymore, something big has already happened.”
Thud! Thud!
The door flung open.
The President of the Ministry of Education came in in a rage, his face seething. “What on earth were you guys thinking, and what is the meaning of the video that was posted online about you guys? If you guys didn’t have any face, it wouldn’t matter, but my name would be dragged down with you guys!”
He was the President of the Ministry of Education. Although he didn’t say anything in the video, he was still implicated in the case. He would definitely be impacted when the authorities start to investigate the case.
The younger professors who were standing around kept silent, still unable to believe that that brat would do such a thing.
If they didn’t clear their names soon, their reputations would be dragged down through the mud and they would be laughing stocks.
The era was different now, and it wasn’t the good old days when the internet wasn’t around yet.
At that time, there was no internet, and doing all these underhand tactics didn’t cause any huge consequence since not many people got to know about it. Now, any small thing would be blown up online.
Especially today’s case.
They were people of high standing and although some people may not have known who they were, everyone in their business knew who they were. They were the leaders of the industry and now that this had happened, they would definitely be embarrassed and laughed at, and their reputations would be tarnished.
“Go, to Cloud Street, and look for that brat. Let’s ask him what he wants.”
“That’s our only option now.”
“If this thing continues spreading, I’m afraid that we cannot save ourselves, so we have to resolve this fast.”
The President of the Ministry of Education was panicking. “I don’t care what method you guys use, just make sure that this issue is resolved. Zhao Ming Qing is his student, so I’ll give him a call to see what he can do.”
On the internet.
The netizens were all in shock.
“This is such a huge turn of events.”
“Damn, so we’ve been lied to all this while. Pal, I thought those were old and respectable people so I sided with them. Never thought that they would be this despicable.”
“F*ck, these old b*stards are too cruel! They just stole other people’s work and credited it to themselves.”
“Haha! Where are the people who were flaming Master Lin? Come out and continue flaming!”
“Lucky these old guys said it out loud and clear in the video, otherwise we wouldn’t have known the truth.”
“You can know a person by his looks, but you’ll never know what they’re thinking. Professor Yang is one of the most esteemed professors from my hometown, and our school’s hall of fame board still has his picture on it. I never thought that he was this kind of person.”
“So much blood, sweat, and tears put into writing the educational material. Why did Master Lin let them sign their names?”
“This is like putting a snake and a mice together.”
“The name list is already out. Ten signatures. Guys, take a look and see if you recognize anyone.”
“What the f*ck, the principal of my school is on the list.”
“This is some ugly news. The whole nation is shocked, I’m pretty sure no one could have seen this coming.”
But soon, the damage control crew came to do their job.
“Professor Yang is a person of virtue and prestige and his temper is good. He would never do these kinds of things.”
“The one up there, you can stop with your ‘damage control’. There’s absolutely no use for that. We already know the truth.”
“In the face of truth, no liar can stand in the path of justice,”
Shanghai’s first Chinese Medicine Institution.
In the office.
Zhao Ming Qing was laughing- the truth was finally out, and he was overjoyed beyond words. Were they dreaming? It wasn’t going to be that easy to defraud his teacher.
Ring ring!
The caller ID showed the President of the Ministry of Education.
The person over the phone had a serious tone.
“Director Zhao, please end this now. You should advise your teacher that if this thing starts spreading, it won’t do anyone good.”
“I’m sorry. This is my teacher’s business. I’m only his student, so I can’t do anything about it,” Zhao Ming Qing sneered.
“What is the meaning of this, Director Zhao? Do you want to see the world burn? Do you want to lose your job?”
Zhao Ming Qing wasn’t afraid at all.
He laughed coldly. “I think that you are just over thinking. Although I’m only a director, I’m definitely not a pushover. If you want to fire me from my position, you still don’t have the authority to do that. And even if you did, I’ll just quit on my own accord, and spend my time researching Chinese Medicine, since I’m free of all ailments anyway.”
The President of the Ministry of Health was silent. Thereafter, he took a deep breath. “Director Zhao, I didn’t mean it that way. I’m just saying that this situation is rather hard to reverse, but if Master Lin continues to pursue it, it won’t do anyone good, especially those elderly professors. They probably can’t take this. If they have any health complications, it’ll be terrible.”
Although he was the President of the Ministry of Health, Zhao Ming Qing was still the director of a Chinese Medicine Institution. Although Zhao Ming Qing’s appointment wasn’t as high as his, his connections were just as good as his. If he really wanted Zhao Ming Qing fired, there would be a lot of people who would oppose the move, especially Zhao Ming Qing’s son who was also one of the high ranking authorities in the Chinese Medicine business.
“I’m afraid I can’t help you here. This is my teacher’s business and I have no right to interfere. You got the wrong guy,” Zhao Ming Qing chuckled.
Zhao Ming Qing hung up the phone before the other party could say anything else. His eyes were full of glee.
Only when a problem arises do they start regretting.
Such a shame, it was too late to regret anything.
