Chapter Ninety-Four: The Storm of Public Opinion
Although everyone was looking forward to it, Yang Guo never came back, and everyone was desperately trying to attack the defender's defense, but the tragic ending was already doomed - the defender turned the tables successfully!
Pitting his teammates is a matter of common anger, but Yang Guo has no time to repent of his mistakes. He had just received a call from Zheng Yujie from the capital, and he knew that Sect Master Qiao's autobiography was currently on the cusp, and if it was not handled well, then they would face a truly tragic defeat!
Zheng Yujie's voice on the phone trembled, and it took half an hour to explain things clearly.
It turned out that a violent storm of public opinion suddenly broke out on the Internet this afternoon, and the information of Yang Guo and several other translators was reprinted everywhere on Weibo and forums.
That's right, Yang Guo's age and qualifications have become the main targets of the water army's vicious attacks!
In particular, when Yang Guo submitted his resume, he did not fill in his qualifications in Cinda Company. So on his resume, he was still half a year ago, graduated with a bachelor's degree, had mediocre grades, did not have any translation qualifications, did not have any independent translation experience, worked for a year and then left at home.
It is really surprising that a celebrity biography that tens of millions of people are looking forward to is translated by a person with such mediocre qualifications.
Not only that, but if you look at the other people in the translation team, none of them are full-time translators, and one is still a science and engineering student, how can the translated works be convincing?
At first, I still didn't know where the water army came out of nowhere to hype it up, but the revelations they came up with were really impeccable, and there were even photos of the stamped letter of appointment from Dongxin Publishing House, and everyone accepted such news in half-belief.
Then more and more fruit fans and Sect Master Qiao began to vent their abuse! They love Apple and Sect Master Joe too much to accept that others have the slightest taint on things related to Sect Master Joe.
They not only raised doubts about Yang Guo on the Internet, but also expressed deep disappointment with Dongxin Publishing House, which has linked Yang Guo's low qualifications with the quality of his works.
Some people even said on the Internet: "If you don't want to do it well, then don't take it, the translation is bad, and you still want us to pay?" Tell you, labor and management don't buy! Chargebacks! "At the instigation of a small number of people, there have really been a lot of unsubscriptions in major online bookstores.
The matter only broke out one afternoon and one night, and the situation has become very bad, whether it is Zheng Yujie or the management of Dongxin, they can't sit still, they have to take action!
The public relations department was in action, Zheng Yujie finished the meeting in the middle of the night, and she didn't care about being afraid of making noise to Yang Guo, so she quickly dialed Yang Guo's mobile phone and talked to Yang Guo.
Yang Guo didn't know that his resume would drag everyone into such an embarrassing situation, but he understood that this was not the time to regret and reflect, nor was it the time to find out who leaked the secret, the top priority was to respond.
He calmly calmed Zheng Yujie, who was a little flustered, and then said gently: "What do you need me to do?" ”
Zheng Yujie hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Can you come to the capital?" I'm looking for a press conference and make it clear in public. ”
"Okay, no problem!" Yang Guo replied categorically. The honorarium for the translation of Sect Master Qiao's biography has been hit on his card, which means that whether the book sells well or not has nothing to do with him in terms of interests! But for Yang Guo, this book is like his own child, he wants to escort its smooth release like protecting Qiqi!
It's just a press conference, Yang Guo is not afraid of those voices who question him, he wants to use his strength to prove to those who spread rumors and look down on him that you are all wrong!
Hanging up the phone, Yang Guo groaned for a while before clapping his hands and standing up with a smile. Let them vent their insults and accusations as others, and when it comes to the press conference, Yang Guo is confident that he can deal with their doubts, and the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it, and it is useless to be anxious now.
Don't think that Yang Guo stopped studying after taking over various translation tasks. Although he didn't have time to learn other foreign languages in the past two months, in order to do better, he also bought a lot of works and theory books from translation masters to read back, and it can be said that his understanding of English is getting deeper and deeper.
On the other side, after Zheng Yujie put down the phone, she couldn't calm down for a long time, although things are not so bad that they can't be reversed, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen!
Prior to this, the company had been emphasizing confidentiality regulations, so even under the close attention of the media, except for the initial recruitment information of translators posted on Yiyan.com, the domestic publication of Qiao Jiao's biography was not known to the outside world.
But just a few days before the official release of the biography, all the information of the translation team that had been hidden under the lid at such a critical moment was shaken out, and it is not difficult to see that this matter cannot be accidental, there must be a black hand behind it. It's just that I don't know if the target of this incident is Dongxin Publishing House or Zheng Yujie and the forces behind her.
No matter who it was targeted, Zheng Yujie would not be restrained, she picked up her phone again, walked into the office and closed the door, and pressed a number that she didn't call often.
Back in the study, Song Zhiwen pounced, he pinched Yang Guo's neck indignantly, and Yang Guo was thrown around by him like a noodle.
"I'll you, Lao Guo, do you want to be so cheating? Answered the phone and chatted for half an hour, hung all of us there, played well, and we were about to win, but the results were overturned, you pit teammates, you! "Song Zhiwen's grievance value has broken the table!
"Hey, hey, I'm in a hurry, I'm in a hurry!" Yang Guo was so shaken by him that he couldn't speak clearly, "Don't shake it......"
After Yang Guo apologized and begged, Song Zhiwen let him go.
"I'm going to the capital." Yang Guo stood firm and tidied up his clothes and said.
Looking at Song Zhiwen's puzzled eyes, Yang Guo explained: "Sect Master Qiao's book is a little wrong now...... Yang Guo briefly explained this matter.
Song Zhiwen has now put the unhappiness just now behind him, and said with a worried face: "Can you rush over now?" You have to know that public opinion is very scary, and if you don't handle it well, those people on the Internet can drown you with saliva. ”
Yang Guo smiled and said: "Since this incident has happened, escaping can't solve the problem, I have to face it and stand up to respond to everyone's questions." ”
He suddenly slammed his fist lightly against the wall, and with a confident look in his eyes, he said: "The more they panic, the more I have to let them know that I am not the straw bale they think I am!" Rest assured! It's just a little thing! ”
