Chapter 482 - Presenting the Bait

A comprehensive ICT network project with global coverage!

It appeared out of nowhere. The involved industries were shocked at how such a huge international project came under wraps.

They doubted at first that it could be a false rumor, considering that this kind global-level project should have taken a long time for completion. Not to mention that the project in this widely global scale required a several hundred billions as a start-up fund, and would only cost way more than that in the following stages of financing. It would also need a lot of resources in all aspects, from manpower, technology, politics, and international alliances.

Not just any company could have done that.

What more of SC Company which was still green and wet behind their ears?

Even if this said company was the black horse rising in ranks in the past few years, it could not support such a large project.

There was just no way.

But soon afterwards, SC Company gave out the full details of the said project.

The first impression of the shocked company representatives was: impossible!

To think that this huge international project was already completed with tower sites standing in more than fifty countries!

They dazedly listened while the SC representative explained that the state-of-the-art tower equipment and facilities passed the international screening with flying colors, how these towers were arranged to buff the wave signals, how they effectively achieve strong global coverage, that even the most remote areas would be able to get reliable and uninterrupted coverage, etcetera…

SC Company popularized the ZD app, which was to be used to connect to the network instead of a SIM card, for topping up data, and various other features for a less hassle connection. Weibo and other media platforms featured the news.

That day, once again, the whole country was in an uproar.

But the surprise was not over yet.

Within twenty-four hours, the same news was also broadcasted in various countries all over the globe!

The renowned five kings personally gave statements about the said project.

The relevant PR departments which had been preparing for a long time finally mobilized in a global scale. Commercial advertis.e.m.e.nts were shown on video-streaming sites and cable channels. Ads on engines were replaced by ZD World. The PR departments in various countries did not even let go of making popular memes.

#ZD Comprehensive Project brings ZD World to the Globe

#ZD World, a world with no dark spots

#Experience the world with lightning fast coverage, world-wide

This became a huge sensation overnight.

In the following days, SC Company, ZD Comprehensive Project, and ZD World filled the magazines, television news, engine searches, and media platforms.

Both netizens and non-netizens knew that there was a new global network which shocked the whole world, originating from C country.

The citizens from C Country felt excited and immensely proud.

Their patriotic belonging was fired up, praising how great their country was.

The global travelers also received the good news through various popular media channels and was curious at how great this trending ZD World network coverage was.

After verifying that the news was legit, they searched for the ZD World app in the appstore and installed it. The app was surprisingly light and did not consume much data or battery.

All kinds of people from all over the world—students, businessmen, and tourists—accessed this app and connected to the network featured in the smooth interface, the ZD World Network.

(A/n: The name of the project was Zheng Duo Comprehensive Project, the name of the global network is ZD World Network. The name of the app was ZD World. Refer chapter 238. I changed the name from ZD All in Project to ZD Comprehensive Project.)

In just a few days, the users rose to a billion.

And it was increasing rapidly.

Linfeng was at SC Company with his main team surveilling the market.

Currently, Jang Shin was handling the interview with listed media platforms to further promote the finished project.

Linfeng did not plan to come out at the moment. He planned to lay low for a while, until the \'big day\'.

Amidst the busy atmosphere in the office, the phone in Linfeng\'s pocket rang.

He took it out and answered.

"Lil bro! Guess who?"

"..."

"Guess who?" the man in the phone repeated.

Linfeng sighed. He thought about hanging up, but then he remembered that it was because this man handled the extensive publicity of ZD project with the help of Grand Agency that their project was currently on fire right now.

"Uncle."

William: "...."

"Linfeng! Our first week is a success, let\'s celebrate!" Another cheerful voice came out from the phone.

It was Eugene, the handsome man with European features and was currently managing his family\'s business and his own conglomerate.

"Eugene," Linfeng acknowledged him, guessing that the phone was on speaker.

"How come Eugene is just Eugene and I\'m called \'uncle\'?" William grumbled.

Linfeng did not bother to answer him and asked.

"What\'s the matter? Why did you call?"

"Must there be a matter when we call? Let\'s celebrate! Come here to New York! We are currently at—"

"Sorry, I can\'t leave here yet. We\'re busy." Linfeng cut him off.

"Besides, we will still meet in the future. Let\'s just celebrate then." Linfeng added.

William: …Why was their youngest so serious and uptight? So cold. Sigh.

"Fine. We will just celebrate by ourselves then. But if you change your mind, you can still catch up. We are in Erich\'s beach villa," William said. "We plan to ditch our work for a couple of days."

They were exhausted with work in the past months due to the completion of the project and last-minute preparations, so they threw the monitoring of the project to their trustworthy employees.

This was a time for them to take a break and relax.

But that was how Linfeng was different from them.

Linfeng wanted to make sure that everything would go well from start to finish.

The first quarter was the critical time for the ZD Comprehensive Project.

They definitely touched the interests of others.

Those people might see them as an eyesore and cause trouble to bring ZD World down. They might create false rumors, hire professionals to attack their software, and so on.

Linfeng had absolute confidence with their firewall and software, but it would not hurt to be more alert at all times. He had prepared for all scenarios, so he was confident that no matter what attack the enemies throw at SC Company, they would be able to repel those and turn the tables around.

This all-out preparation was also the reason why the five kings were at ease that they could finally relax and take a break.

But Linfeng had another goal.

When one fresh and luscious apple suddenly appeared out of nowhere, the snakes that were hiding in the dark would silently bare their fangs, coveting this apple.

Especially the kind of snake who wanted to monopolize the best of the apples.

Linfeng\'s eye flashed darkly.

He remembered every little thing Xiong Zhi had said to him yesterday and analyzed them in many angles. He could tell, this project would absolutely attract those people\'s attention.

On the way to the capital, Xiong Zhi told him the details of what she had found as well as her doubts.

The same night, Xiong Zhi made a copy of the relevant doc.u.ments and sent it to his protected email through the private channel.

Linfeng did not sleep until he finished reading them, one by one.

As Xiong Zhi had said, there were many suspicious things hovering around \'those\' people.

Xiong Zhi\'s guess might be right. Linfeng thought of ways on how to make the snake who was hiding deeply come out and reveal itself.

There happened to be one delicious treat that would definitely attract the snakes, even without Linfeng moving.

Of course, he was not foolish to put many people\'s hard-work at risk.

It his intuition that was telling him that those hiding in the dark would move, perhaps not by themselves but through other people.

As said in the saying, \'know thy enemy\'. This enemy always were in hiding, using pawns as hands.

Another pawn might be used to stand up and steal the apple, but that would be enough for Linfeng to start his own investigations from this angle.

****

A/n: This project had been given attention ever since. Because it played a huge role in past life and even in this life.
