Chapter 141 An Immense Threat
Chapter 141 An Immense Threat
After all, Qiao Luo's live stream went viral yesterday, and she herself became an internet celebrity.
"Qiao Luo, you're amazing! We all watched your live stream yesterday and we've all become your fans."
"Qiao Luo, your Weibo followers have increased by hundreds of thousands again. If this continues, you'll surpass the number of popular celebrities."
"Qiao Luo..."
She heard so many compliments like that early in the morning that her ears were practically calloused.
However, there were also compliments like Bai Ge's that touched her heart and were very pleasant to hear.
Bai Ge praised her, saying, "Luo Luo, I really loved your live stream yesterday. You were so professional, articulate, and logical. Most importantly, you had such a strong presence that you could keep all the weirdos in the chat room in check. You were absolutely captivating."
Qiao Luo was embarrassed by her praise.
"Am I really that good?" she asked, covering her face.
Bai Ge: "Yes, of course you have it. You are the best live-streaming elf in the world, Qiao Luo."
As the two were chatting and laughing, Lin Mei came over and coldly called Qiao Luo into her office.
"Why didn't you call to inform me before coming to work? Do you know you're still on suspension?"
Qiao Luo thought Lin Mei was also talking to her about yesterday's live broadcast, since the whole office was discussing it, but she didn't expect Lin Mei to talk about this.
She was puzzled. "But when they notified me of my suspension last time, they clearly said I could come back to work once the public outcry subsided. Now the public outcry has subsided, hasn't it?"
Lin Mei was somewhat displeased. "I did tell you to come back to work after the public outcry subsided, but I also said to wait for a phone call. Don't you remember?"
Qiao Luo didn't remember Lin Mei saying anything like that. When she heard that she was being suspended, she was quite angry and didn't pay much attention to it.
But she didn't think there was any inevitability in this, since she could see the public opinion calm down.
So she said, "There doesn't seem to be any contradiction between the two, right?"
Lin Mei replied, "There are big conflicts here. The society has its own arrangements, and you can't just make your own decisions."
Qiao Luo still didn't understand. After all, she was suspended from her job because of the online public opinion. Now that the public opinion had been calmed down, she was supposed to come back to work.
Just as she was about to speak...
Lin Mei added, "Besides, this is the company's arrangement. The company understands that you've had such an incident and need to adjust your mood, so they extended your suspension period as a kind of leave for you. What? You have a problem with that?"
Qiao Luo naturally dared not object to the company's arrangements, but since she had already come to work, did she really have to go back?
Moreover, their department has been accumulating a mountain of work lately. Just now, when she was chatting with Bai Ge, Bai Ge complained that he had to work overtime at the company yesterday because of too much work.
Her return now can be seen as a relief for the department's workload, right?
Thinking this way, she said, "I appreciate the company's kindness, but the current situation is not suitable for taking a vacation, and I'm in a good mood, so I don't need to adjust."
The reasons are sound and there's nothing wrong with them.
But Lin Mei simply refused to agree.
She also saw Qiao Luo's live stream yesterday, which was indeed quite unexpected. It demonstrated the professionalism of a media person and also successfully reversed public opinion.
It can be described as a perfect media case study.
But this is not what Lin Mei wants to see.
After all, for her, a capable subordinate like Qiao Luo was still quite dangerous.
Putting everything else aside, even the magazine's higher-ups have taken notice of Qiao Luo's live stream yesterday. Her boss even called her over just now, telling her to pay attention to cultivating Qiao Luo and saying that she is a promising talent in the media industry.
For someone as petty and narrow-minded as Lin Mei, this had become a tremendous threat.
