Chapter 125 It's just the first step.
Life was full of moments.
Perhaps these moments could be easily recorded, but they were not so easily recognized. Each person was a world unto themselves, and every minute, every second, billions of people were simultaneously engaging in billions of different activities. Finding someone who shared your exact state of mind in that vast sea of humanity was like finding a needle in a haystack.
But the internet was ubiquitous. It could help you find everything: sadness, joy, empathy, and even telepathy.
This was how the version of the Gemini app functioned! When the veil was lifted, thousands were amazed! In no time, the Gemini app went viral across the internet.
As the Vice President of Meta Platforms, Cassius was not just a figurehead. In just a few minutes, he could already foresee the future of the Gemini app.
He furrowed his brow tightly, saying nothing. He picked up the phone beside him, ready to call the tech department. His arm hovered in the air for a full minute before he dejectedly put it down.
'There was no point in making this call. Those idiots in the tech department would never understand this code!' he thought.
Benjamin's face was ashen. he turned to Cassius. "Mr. Greene, should we resign?"
"Get out," Cassius's eyes were icy. "We can't match Creator's technology! In terms of product, it was hard for us to win! But I can destroy him! Just like I did with other companies! Benjamin, contact a hacker for me and name his price. I want him to drown the Gemini app within a day!"
Benjamin hesitated. "Mr. Greene, this isn't right. If the president finds out..."
"The president?" Cassius's face twisted. "I'm telling you if we get beaten by the Creator, the president will deal with me first and then you!"
Benjamin's body stiffened, then he gritted his teeth and conceded.
In the Creator's main conference room, Elbert stood with his arms crossed, Alvin beside him, and a group of programmers behind him. Everyone was staring intently at the big screen.
[Gemini app activity: 190 million.]
[Gemini app activity: 230 million.] [
[Gemini app activity: 260 million.]
[Gemini app activity: 280 million.]
These numbers have been skyrocketing since the launch of the Gemini app. With each increase, everyone grew more excited.
"Boss, we did it. The update is a success!" A programmer, face full of excitement despite 11 hours of hard work, looked exhausted, but his eyes were shining.
"User engagement is going up at a rate of tens of millions per minute. At this rate, in less than half a day, we'll crush Meta Platforms Company!"
"Crush Meta Platforms Company? No need! Meta Platforms Company's Soulmate has already collapsed!"
"Yes, bad reviews are pouring in! I just got word from my senior that Meta Platforms Company is preparing an apology press conference right now!"
At this moment, the Creator Company was filled with laughter. The pressure on their shoulders was lifted.
Elbert also had a smile on his face. He turned his back and waved his hand. All the employees immediately fell silent. Elbert slowly walked onto the stage, his eyes full of gratification. "Everyone, rest for 6 hours," he said.
"Okay, thank you, boss!"
"Why 6 hours?"
Just as everyone was about to cheer, someone snapped out of her reverie and was a bit confused.
Elbert smiled lightly. "This is just the beginning. Are you satisfied with just this achievement?"
The Gemini app employees were quiet for a moment. Suddenly, they realized something. Their eyes showed a hint of fervor again.
"Boss, do you have another plan?"
"Boss, whatever you say! We will follow!"
"Do you have another card up your sleeve? I'm so excited!"
"Yes, we support you!"
"Resting is not an option!"
Upon hearing Elbert's words, the Gemini app employees, with bloodshot eyes, were once again full of fighting spirit.
"Exactly!" Elbert smiled meaningfully. "Stopping now won't show our Creator's spirit! Since we're playing against a master like Meta Platforms Company, we won't stop until we achieve a complete victory."
"Great!"
The programmers jumped up on the spot.
"Boss, you say it; what do we do?" someone asked.
Elbert put on a stern expression. "Same as before, rest! Sleep! In 6 hours, we charge again!"
"Alright!"
The Creator employees had to suppress their excitement. They reluctantly dispersed. For convenience, they decided not to go home but to rest directly at the company. As soon as the boss gave the order, they could jump into work immediately.
However, with their hearts full of anticipation, they couldn't easily fall asleep. But they heard Elbert's loud voice, "In 3 minutes, everyone close your eyes!"
At this moment, in a suburban villa in Evercrest, a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard and a haggard face was answering the phone.
"Alright, Mr. Thompson, don't worry; as long as the money is in place, I'll take down that little Gemini app in no time!
"No problem at all! What a joke of a stage. It's all the same, and everything will be taken down! Rest assured!"
The man hung up the phone. A text message followed, informing him that $20,000,000 had been deposited into his bank account.
"Time to get to work!" he said to himself.
The man eagerly put down his legs and turned on the computer in front of him. He was nicknamed Big Dog. He controlled 3 million rumormongers' accounts and numerous hackers. He worked for money, specializing in online defamation. For five years, he led his team to spread rumors and create trouble maliciously. He had slandered countless products and driven countless CEOs crazy.
Even worse, his statements were highly inflammatory. Not only would his subordinates curse, but he could also unknowingly incite countless uninformed netizens. With his influence, he could make good products bad and turn good deeds into heinous acts.
Big Dog leisurely looked at the files on his desk.
The 'Guide to Insulting,' 'Special for Defamation,' and 'Collection of Infuriating Comments,' 'were three kinds of tools for him to use.
Big Dog lit a cigarette. "Gemini app? Which one should I use against you? With so much money, I have to hit you hard. Otherwise, how could I live up to my title as the Emperor of Defamation?"
