Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 688

Within the Celestial Aviation airport, due to the suspicion of a bomb, there was chaos, and the police quickly mobilized, evacuating the crowd and locking down the airport, causing all flights to be grounded that day.

Bomb disposal experts arrived on the scene and began searching for the bomb.

Celestial Aviation’s security system was immediately questioned by the public. Was the airport security check merely a formality, allowing a bomb to enter the airport?

The incident quickly escalated and made the trending list, becoming widely known.

"Seriously, is security just for show?"

"Who’s going to dare fly with Celestial Aviation anymore? So unsafe!"

"This kind of airport should be closed down!"

Netizens flocked to comment, criticizing Celestial Aviation.

Celestial Aviation’s stock price fell in response.

A crisis landed on Celestial Aviation, affecting the entire Mortal Group. As the owner of Mortal Group, Lin Fan was thrust into the spotlight.

Known as a mysterious tycoon, Lin Fan had, in a short time, created a wealth myth, establishing Mortal Group, a business empire that amazed the world, earning admiration from the masses. This air of mystery gave an impression of incredible power, but was it actually just a paper tiger?

If the bomb is indeed found at the airport this time, it will prove that Celestial Aviation’s security is ineffective, and Mortal Group will be shown to be not as great as believed, causing Lin Fan’s myth to crumble.

The collapse of their stock price is inevitable, yet this is not Mortal Group’s true nightmare. The real nightmare could be regulatory measures from above; a single official document could bring Mortal Group to ruin.

Lin Fan understood this, so upon learning the situation, he immediately returned to the Celestial Aviation Headquarters.

He wanted to handle this matter personally.

"Chairman, the executives are all in the meeting room," Zhao Jiayi, the secretary, said, approaching Lin Fan as he entered the Celestial Aviation Headquarters.

Instantly, all eyes in the company were on Lin Fan.

The crisis had come so suddenly that everyone was stunned, somewhat at a loss.

Lin Fan nodded: "To the meeting room."

The meeting room was filled with company executives, including the board members, all discussing how to respond to this crisis, but no good solutions emerged.

As Lin Fan entered, everyone fell silent, looking at him.

Lin Fan had once created a stock market miracle for Celestial Aviation, elevating it from a billion-dollar company to a trillion-dollar group under his leadership. His accomplishments made the whole company, including these high-level executives, admire and worship him like a god.

This time, how would Lin Fan act?

Everyone was uncertain deep down.

Even though Lin Fan was brilliant at making money, this crisis had nothing to do with that—it was purely an unforeseen calamity. If a bomb were indeed found at the airport, not even immortals could save Celestial Aviation.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Everyone, I’m sure you’ve all discussed this. Does anyone have suggestions on how to handle the situation? Please speak freely."

"My suggestion is to engage in crisis PR and defend ourselves. Right now, the internet is full of curses, and the public has misunderstood us."

"Our security system is absolutely safe!"

"That’s right, our security is very strict. Even a mosquito wouldn’t get through if we didn’t allow it!"

Everyone expressed confidence.

Clearly, they didn’t believe there was a real bomb at the airport.

Lin Fan looked at Li Hongting: "Mr. Li, what are your thoughts?"

Li Hongting, the second-largest shareholder of Celestial Aviation and one of its oldest members, had seen the company grow and his words carried weight.

Li Hongting replied, "This matter depends on the police investigation results. If a bomb is indeed found, nothing we say will matter. If we rashly proceed with crisis PR, it will backfire and make us a laughing stock, adding insult to injury for the company."

Lin Fan murmured: "Do you think, Mr. Li, that our security system actually missed a bomb, allowing it into the airport?"

Li Hongting said, "Nothing is absolute. No matter how advanced a security system may be, it’s operated by people."

Lin Fan replied, "You make a good point, Mr. Li. No system is 100% secure. If ours has a flaw and someone exploits it, there might indeed be a bomb."

Everyone fell silent.

If even the chairman admits it, it suggests there’s a possibility there is a bomb in the airport!

If Mortal Group releases a statement defending their security system but the airport indeed contains a bomb, they’d be utterly embarrassed, inviting even more criticism and attacks.

"Mr. Lin, what do you decide?" Li Hongting asked.

Immediately, all eyes turned to Lin Fan.

This was indeed a tricky issue, ultimately awaiting the chairman’s decision. It was also a test of Lin Fan’s leadership skills.

If Lin Fan didn’t handle this matter well, it could not only harm the company but also knock him off the pedestal, severely damaging his image.

Lin Fan maintained a calm expression and said, "This matter requires rational analysis. The supposed bomb at the airport is, at this point, merely a rumor, which leaves only two possible outcomes: either there’s no bomb, or there is one. Let’s consider the first option: there’s no bomb. If there’s no bomb, why would such a commotion arise?"

Li Hongting pondered, "If there’s no bomb, then someone must be causing trouble deliberately. This sort of thing isn’t unheard of; people have previously faked bomb threats to create panic, only to be proven false."

Lin Fan inquired, "And what would their motivation be?"

Li Hongting replied, "That I’m not sure of. Perhaps boredom. Some people just stir things up for no reason."

Lin Fan nodded: "This motivation could have countless possibilities, but it could also be someone targeting our Celestial Aviation."

Everyone’s expressions changed.

"Are you suggesting someone is out to get us?" Li Hongting frowned. "That’s a very possible scenario! After all, our Celestial Aviation has been growing rapidly, attracting attention as it ascends. As the saying goes, ’a tall tree attracts the wind,’ it’s inevitable that we’d garner some envy."

Lin Fan continued, "The second outcome is truly having a bomb at the airport. This would be severe, indicating that not only is there a flaw in our security system, but it’s also been exploited. Let me ask everyone a question: if I wanted to bring a bomb into the airport, how could it be done?"

Everyone began to think.

Li Hongting answered, "I can respond to that. Given our current security system, it’s nearly impossible to smuggle a bomb into the airport. If it indeed happened, then there’s only one possibility: someone from within the company is cooperating."

Lin Fan smiled, "So, you’re suggesting there’s a mole inside."
