Chapter 12 — Tieu Tam's Son Stole My Daughter's Work, I Revoked The Right To Operate The Group
Finally silence. The lines on the screen are too clear. Initial registration dossier: Work: Tinh Nha Author: Tham Tinh Mien Account to upload attachment: Tham Duong Family Laboratory Review status: Passed Three days ago, at 23:47 The Marketing department's behind-the-scenes account logged in and edited author information. Author after editing: Pho Canh Chu Operation notes: Coordinate and unify the main image for the launch of "AI Tinh Hoa Teenager". This is not a misunderstanding. Not two children's ideas are the same. It's not like Tinh Mien remembered wrongly. It's about someone using authority in the company's system. Remove a child's name from his or her own work. Then put another child's name on it instead. To Man's face was extremely ugly. But she still tried to stand up straight.
“The behind-the-scenes account is not only used by me.”
“It is normal for the Marketing Department to adjust materials for the press conference.”
“Adjusting brand identity.”
“Unify the image.”
“Optimizing candidate information.”
“It's all routine.”
“Miss Tham, you don't understand the marketing department's procedures.”
“Don't turn a normal modification into an unauthorized modification.”
I almost laughed out of anger.
“Changed author from Tham Tinh Mien to Pho Canh Chu...”
“In your eyes, is this called information optimization?”
To Man gritted his teeth.
“Maybe the employee entered the data wrongly.”
“Employee entered data incorrectly...”
I looked at her.
“Will the work's introduction be edited at the same time?”
“Edit the author profile too?”
“Fix the promotional video script?”
“And change all the announcements sent to the media to Pho Canh Chu?”
I signaled Phuong Viet to continue. Phuong Viet nodded. Open related documents. First document. The application has been edited. Second document. It's an email sent by the Marketing department to the media company. Extremely outstanding email subject line: About the final set of content for the project "Tinh Hoa AI genius teenager - Pho Canh Chu". Third document. This is a revised version of the program's introduction. In the original it is written:
“Little Tham Tinh Mien brought the work Tinh Nha.”
But the red note has been changed to:
"Little friend Pho Canh Chu, representative of the AI youth, was personally cared for and nurtured by General Director Pho."
Fourth document. It's a promotional video script. It says:
“Canh Chu started coming into contact with AI from the age of five.”
“Grow up naturally in the educational environment of Tinh Hoa.”
“Is the most representative model for children's creativity and Tinh Hoa's product philosophy.”
I read every line. There is no more pain in my chest. Which is cold. They didn't just steal Tinh Mien's work. They also wanted to turn that work into a stepping stone for Pho Canh Chu to enter the public eye. Turn it into a typical example of Pho Thua Nghien's philosophy of father-son education. Turning it into an achievement helped To Man from the position of Marketing Director step into the limelight. In that whole plan. My daughter is not even a neglected child. Just a name that can be erased. Below the stands. More and more people are taking out their phones to take screenshots. MC asked in a low voice:
“Deputy General…”
“Do we need to pause the livestream first?”
Deputy Thua Nghiem did not answer. He stared at those records. His face was gloomy and scary. A few seconds later. He coldly spoke:
“Phuong Viet.”
“Turn off the backstage system.”
Phuong Viet did not move. Pho Thua Nghien's voice became even colder:
“I said, off backstage.”
Under the stands. A technical team leader reflexively stood up. But look at Phuong Viet. Look at me again. Finally stiffened in place. I know what Pho Thua Nghien is thinking. Just turn off the big screen for now. Stop disclosing evidence. Submit the entire incident to internal investigation. Then he still has space to handle the media. He could say it was a system error. It could be said that it was an employee's mistake. It can be said that it was just a misunderstanding at the scene. It is even possible to push To Man to take responsibility. While still maintaining the image:
"The CEO did not know about the incident in advance, but after discovering it, he seriously handled it."
But he forgot one thing. Recent years in Tinh Hoa have been very smooth sailing. So convenient that he thought... Just one look from him. Everyone will continue to be silent as before. Phuong Viet looked straight at him. Each word says clearly:
“Deputy General.”
“The judge requested to continue the review process.”
“The company's CEO is me.”
“The person who holds the right to license the core technology is Mr. Shen.”
“The review of copyright of the Children's Creativity Contest is in charge of the Technical Committee.”
“The Marketing Department does not have the authority to unilaterally close the process.”
Pho Thua Nghien laughed coldly.
“Phuong Viet.”
“Don't forget who pays your salary.”
Phuong Viet's face also turned cold.
“Tinh Hoa pays my salary.”
“Not you.”
“It's not To Man either.”
The words just ended. The eyes of many veteran employees in the company immediately changed. I looked at Pho Thua Nghien. For the first time today... I saw a real loss of control appear on his face.
“You quickly told him to turn off the backstage system like that…”
“It's because you don't know about this.”
“Or is it because you know too well?”
Pho Thua Nghien's eyes finally fell on me.
“Shen Duong.”
“There is media here.”
“Do you really want to push Tinh Hoa into the eye of the public opinion storm?”
“Tinh Hoa is already in the middle of the storm.”
I raised my phone. Comments in the livestream room are flying by.
“This is not a children's competition, is this a cheating company?”
"The real author's name was erased? How disgusting."
“Just now, General Director Deputy said it was just a childish matter, right?”
"Is the marketing director a minor? Really big drama."
See those comments. Pho Thua Nghien's face became even more unsightly. In the end, To Man could no longer maintain his gentle appearance. Her voice became sharp:
“Shen Duong!”
“Don't come here to lead public opinion!”
“Your marriage with the Deputy General Director is not favorable.”
“You used the company's press conference to vent your anger.”
“Now he wants to drag me and my son into the water.”
“Don't you think you're too unsightly?”
I looked at her. Suddenly felt funny.
“Even now you still don't understand.”
“If it's simply an unhappy marriage…”
“I won't stand here and argue with you about who has more face than who.”
I raised my hand and pointed to the screen big.
“But you used the marketing department's behind-the-scenes account to change my daughter's author name.”
“She used the company's press conference to build her son's image.”
“You stood in front of the camera and scolded the author for being such a liar.”
“This is no longer just about me.”
“This is a breakdown in corporate governance.”
“It is an act of copyright infringement of children's works.”
“It is an abuse of corporate communication resources.”
To Man's face was sometimes blue, sometimes white. She still wants to continue to deny. But Phuong Viet opened another login record.
“General Shen.”
“The marketing department's account is a shared account.”
“But this operation has two-factor authentication.”
He zoomed in on the information on the right. Authentic phone number: Matches To Man's work phone number. Operation location: Marketing Director's Office, 18th floor, Tinh Hoa headquarters.
