Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As soon as the reporters saw Professor Dou’s team walking out, they immediately swarmed around them like bees to their hive.
“Professor Dou, it is rumored that the robot you brought with you today is the same robot you used to partic.i.p.ate in the International Robot Compet.i.tion. Some people pointed out that your chip’s technology was stolen from a core technology of Y Group. How do you explain this?”
A male reporter immediately raised the question when he approached. The other reporters were instantly silent. Professor Dou, who was talking to another group of people, turned around.
Professor Dou’s expression instantly became stern. He asked a question instead of answering the one directed at him, “Before you ask this question, do you have any evidence to prove your point?”
When Professor Dou became stern, the people surrounding him did not even dare to utter a single sound.
The reporter was obviously here looking for trouble and did not fear him. “But neither did you bring out evidence to clear your name. Isn’t that akin to admitting that the rumor is real?”
The reporter was very aggressive.
Someone standing beside Professor Dou could no longer remain a bystander. With a deep voice, he said. “You said we stole Y Group’s core technology, then did they produce evidence to prove that we had indeed stolen it?
“It’s said that Y Group is currently gathering evidence and I believe they will reveal it soon.”
The reporter’s intention to bootlick Y Group was extremely obvious. Everyone was aware of this, and the majority of them were from the capital. Therefore, they looked down on the reporter’s action of bootlicking the other party, when they had yet to reveal any substantial evidence
With the thought that Professor Dou was Zi Yi’s Uncle, He Fei could not remain a bystander anymore and directly stepped forward as he angrily shouted back, “Since they haven’t taken out any evidence, why are you speaking up for them? Are you still from our country?”
The reporter looked at He Fei and his expression changed to one that appeared to be afraid of him. However, he still continued with his fearless and heroic att.i.tude. “I’m only asking for facts here. Young Master He please do not accuse me of such an act. You’re not someone from this circle and I doubt you have seen the live broadcast of the International Robot Compet.i.tion. Otherwise, you would not have said such words to insult me.”
The reporter put on a pretense of lowering himself and said to the camera, “Since Young Master He has stepped forward, and he also accused me of such an act, I believe that there’s no need for me to dig further to know the real truth.”
“What do you mean!” He Fei never expected the reporter to distort the truth in such a way. His eyes widened in anger. Coupled with how he originally wasn’t in a good mood, he had the impulse to go and give him a beating.
Just then, a solemn and powerful voice sounded from behind him.
“What’s going on?”
Everyone subconsciously looked towards the person. They saw Lu Jingye walking towards them, together with his secretary and a group of bodyguards.
The spectators subconsciously made way for him.
Lu Jingye first greeted Professor Dou when he arrived. He then glanced at the furious He Fei before looking at the reporter and asked, “What’s going on?”
His voice did not sound harsh, but it carried an air of authority that made one dare not to be presumptuous.
The reporter inexplicably felt anxious. “S-second Young Master Lu… It’s like this…”
The reporter recounted the situation to Lu Jingye and in the end, he stressed to him by saying, “I only came here to report the facts.”
“Is what you’re doing called reporting the facts? You’re obviously siding with Y Group!”
He Fei was speechless: “…”
Lu Jingye called out to He Fei. After he shut his mouth, Lu Jingye asked the reporter, “How’s the progress on Y Group’s side in collecting the evidence?”
“This… I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?” Lu Jingye tilted his head toward his secretary and said, “Give the upper management of Y Group a call. Since everyone is concerned about this matter, we shall solve it today.”
Everyone present was baffled.
How?
