Chapter 1155: 1145 There’s a problem with the product.
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tan Rou received feedback from the volunteers every day, especially Grandpa Lu and Grandma Tao. They wished they could write ten pieces of paper a day to tell Tan Rou their thoughts on using it.
One day, Tan Rou was reading her notes when Xiao Ting suddenly brought a newspaper over. “Boss, something happened!”
“What happened?” Tan Rou asked calmly.
“Could it be that the celebrity you like has been exposed for dating again?”
Xiao Ting liked to chase after celebrities, but every time she liked a celebrity, that celebrity’s relationship would be exposed. Her colleagues in the office liked to call her ‘Celebrity Matriarch’. As long as she liked a celebrity, she would quickly find someone she liked.
“No!” Xiao Ting became nervous again. “This time, it’s not my business, but yours.”
Tan Rou’s expression was still calm. She took the newspaper from Xiao Ting’s hands. “Is there another piece of news that’s bad for us?”
Xiao Ting was stunned. “How do you know?”
Tan Rou opened the newspaper and glanced at it. Her expression disappeared. “Our company’s products have quality problems? Heh, if I remember correctly, the robot in the photo is still in the experimental stage, right?”
Xiao Ting kept nodding. “Yes, this is the nursing robot you developed.”
“Who took this photo? Which media outlet published it?” Tan Rou asked.
“It was posted by the Capital Daily,” Xiao Ting said with a troubled expression.
The Capital Daily was the most authoritative newspaper in the entire capital. It had many readers, and 70% of its readers were elderly. The elderly didn’t know how to surf the Internet. They were more used to getting news from the newspapers. If they felt that this robot wasn’t good, they definitely wouldn’t use it in the future.
The vast majority of the elderly were very stubborn. Once their ideas were formed, it was very difficult to change them later.
Since the news was spread through the physical newspapers, Tan Rou couldn’t remove the news. The newspaper had been published for ten hours. The public would have seen it.
“Boss, what should we do?” This was the first time Xiao Ting had encountered such a situation. If it was a trending search on the Internet, she could contact the website to block the entry. However, she couldn’t do this with the newspaper. The newspaper had already been sent out and couldn’t be taken back.
Tan Rou wasn’t worried about how to deal with the public opinion this time. She was only concerned about who leaked the news about the robot.
The experiment this time was confidential. Other than those who volunteered to partic.i.p.ate in the experiment, only Tan Rou and the others knew about this experiment. Logically speaking, it should not have been leaked. However, not only had the experiment been leaked, but it had also been published by the Capital Daily, causing a certain degree of adverse effects. This was definitely not good news.
Who did it?
“Boss, why are you in a daze?” Xiao Ting waved her hand in front of Tan Rou. “Are you scared silly?”
Tan Rou was just thinking about the problem. “Just wait and see. I think the other party must be targeting our company. Since he dared to expose this matter, he must have some ability. Arrange for two people to go to the headquarters of the Capital Daily to take a look and ask them who reported this news and who submitted it to them.”
“Alright, I’ll arrange it now.”
However, just as Xiao Ting walked out of the office, the phone in front of Tan Rou rang. It was the office phone. The people who called were all here to discuss work, so Tan Rou didn’t even think about pressing the speaker b.u.t.ton.
“h.e.l.lo!” Tan Rou greeted.
“Is it Miss Tan Rou?” A sloppy voice came from the other end. “Miss Tan Rou, did you see the news this morning? It’s news from the Capital Daily.”
Tan Rou’s lips curled into a smile. Someone really came to give her a pillow when she was sleepy. She was just wondering who was looking for trouble with her when this person came knocking on her door.
“Who are you?” Tan Rou asked.
The other party chuckled and replied, “You don’t have to ask who I am. You just need to know that you’re in big trouble now.”
Tan Rou laughed too. “Do you think you can threaten me with that piece of news?”
The other party said, “Of course, it’s not just this piece of news. As long as you don’t agree to my request, there will be another piece of news that will be detrimental to your company every day. If you don’t believe me, you can wait and see.”
