Chapter 257 - 257 Statement

257 Statement

Chu An handed the phone over. On the page was a statement regarding Ji Gao’s resignation.

[Ji Group Official Account: Recently, because Mr. Ji Gao, the CEO of Ji Group, has caused some negative impact on the Internet platform and life, his actions have violated the company’s hiring standards. The company is very suspicious of his character. Therefore, the board of directors has ordered him to take the blame and resign. It has been carried out at 10:30 a.m. today.]

Gu Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw the statement from the Ji Group.

She did not expect the Ji Group to let Ji Gao leave so quickly. She thought that the Ji Group would find a way to cover up this matter.

Once this statement was made, wouldn’t it completely pin Ji Gao on the pillar of shame? Old Master Ji actually agreed?

As if knowing what Gu Xiao was thinking, Chu An explained, “All the shareholders of the Ji Group are using the shares in their hands as blackmail to get the group to release a statement. If they don’t fire Ji Gao completely, those shareholders are worried that Ji Gao still has a chance to return to the Ji Group.”

Previously, after the incident of Ji Gao’s illegitimate son, Ji Gao had only temporarily left the Ji Group. However, his position was still retained and he could go back at any time.

However, after this incident that happened to the Ji Group, those shareholders would never let Ji Gao return to the corporation.

If the shareholders really sold their shares as they said, even the Ji Group would suffer a huge loss.

“That’s only right. After all, Ji Gao was the only one who had done these things.”

Gu Xiao said meaningfully, then lowered her head to read the comments on the Ji Group’s statement online.

[Oh my god! The Ji Group is indirectly admitting that the videos online are real, right?! Ji Gao really did those things!]

[Hahaha! Seeing the Ji Group’s statement, Ji Gao’s life is over! Hahaha! I was hoping to see such an ending. Even if he can’t be punished with the law, he shouldn’t have an easy time either!]

[Looking at the Ji Group’s “cruel” statement, they didn’t give Ji Gao any face at all! From the looks of it, the Ji Group and Ji Gao are not on the same side, so we shouldn’t implicate the Ji Group in this matter.]

[The Ji Group doesn’t just belong to the Ji family, right? There are still so many shareholders? Although Ji Gao’s actions are very disgusting, these things shouldn’t involve others. Otherwise, wouldn’t we have done something bad out of good intentions?]

…

Initially, the comments were all cursing Ji Gao, and some were happy that Ji Gao had received the punishment he deserved. However, gradually, voices began to appear in the comments section to speak up for the Ji Group.

These evaluations blamed Ji Gao for this matter, thus pulling the Ji Group out of this matter and reducing the impact of this matter on the Ji Group.

Although it seemed reasonable, Gu Xiao knew at a glance that these comments were arranged by the Ji Group to whitewash the corporation.

“The Ji Group is quite fast,” Gu Xiao said as she handed the phone back to Chu An.

Chu An took the phone and scrolled down the comments. Seeing that more and more comments were clearing the Ji Group’s name, he understood what Gu Xiao meant.

He nodded in agreement. “After all, in just two days, the Ji Group’s market value has directly evaporated by billions. Of course, the Ji Group is in a hurry.”

The money that had evaporated was a knife in the hearts of those shareholders. How could they not feel heartache?

When Gu Xiao heard this, she narrowed her eyes to hide the scheme in the depths of her eyes.

“Say, if those people from the Ji Group use their methods now, how should they deal with the video when it’s released?”

When Chu An heard this, he pondered seriously for a while.

“I’m afraid the shares of the Ji Group will plunge!”

Gu Xiao smiled and looked like she was in a good mood.

In fact, they had already posted the video yesterday. However, they had posted it in a small account. Not many people paid attention to this account now, and naturally, no one had discovered the video inside.

If they waited for another two days and no one discovered this account, they would arrange for someone to pretend to have discovered the video in this account and arrange for more people to repost it!
