"System, predict the market trend for 'Industrial Alcohol Essence' related products over the next three days."
"Command received. Analyzing current public sentiment, search indices, and related brand data for projections..."
"Projection complete: It is expected that within three days, all products related to keywords such as 'Industrial Alcohol' and 'Black Workshop Essence' will experience a dramatic sales drop of over 95%, with associated brands facing risks of removal and investigation."
"Recommendation: The host may utilize this information to strategically short-sell related brand stocks or acquire their undervalued assets."
Lin Xiaoya's lips curled into a slight smile.
This system was becoming increasingly user-friendly.
At that moment, the live stream backend data surged again.
"Real-time online viewers: 150,000+!"
"Bullet chat interaction frequency: 800 messages/second+!"
"Bullet chat energy accumulated: 12,850!"
It had surpassed ten thousand!
According to the system rules, this was enough to trigger a "Trending Topic" across the entire network!
Lin Xiaoya acted without hesitation.
"System, immediately use 10,000 points of bullet chat energy to push Industrial Alcohol Essence to the top of the trending list!"
"Command confirmed. Consuming 10,000 bullet chat energy points..."
"The 'Trending Topics' service has been activated... Injecting traffic now..."
In an instant, the trending lists across major social media platforms began to shift dramatically.
The term IndustrialAlcoholEssence, tinged with a sense of bloodshed, skyrocketed as if propelled by a rocket, breaking through layers of topics to claim the top spot!
Clicking on it revealed a recording of Zhou Tao "self-exposing" in Lin Xiaoya's livestream, along with user-organized information about black market workshops and questions directed at the Dark Night Consortium!
A single stone stirred up a thousand waves!
The entire internet was set ablaze!
Countless users who had previously purchased similar unregulated essence products frantically checked their cosmetics.
Major media outlets, like sharks sensing blood in the water, rushed to report on the story!
The regulatory authorities' phones were nearly overwhelmed with calls!
For the first time, the name Dark Night Consortium was exposed to the public on such a large scale, and in such a negative light!
"Well done!" Lin Xiaoya clenched her fist, feeling a slight release from the frustration of being slandered and cyberbullied in her past life.
However, she knew this was just the beginning.
The Dark Night Consortium's retaliation would not end so easily.
Sure enough.
The system's alarm sounded again, more urgent than ever before!
"Warning! High-intensity data attack detected! Target: Erase all online traces and associated evidence chain of user 'Fake Fighter Zhou Tao'!"
"Attack source IP: Multiple encryptions, suspected to originate from the internal network security department of the Night Consortium."
"Attempting to intercept…"
"Interception failed! Opponent's permissions are too high!"
"The system has detected that 'Zhou Tao associated data' is being forcibly deleted… Progress: 10%… 30%… 60%…"
Lin Xiaoya's heart tightened.
Such a quick response!
They are trying to destroy the evidence!
Once Zhou Tao's data is completely wiped, his recent "self-explosion" could easily be classified as "account hacked" or "malicious rumors." Although the trending topic has already ignited, without the core evidence chain, subsequent accountability will be incredibly difficult!
"System, can you stop it?"
"The opponent is using a low-level protocol for forced deletion; the system currently lacks sufficient permissions to fully prevent it. Estimated remaining time: 35 seconds."
35 seconds!
Lin Xiaoya felt beads of sweat forming on her forehead.
This is the true power of the Night Consortium; in the digital world, they can almost do as they please!
What frightened her even more was that another bright red alert suddenly popped up on the system screen!
"Warning! AI face-swapping attack detected!"
"Attack target: Host's live streaming room footage."
"Attack command source: User 'LinXY' (Associated information: Secretary's office of the Night Consortium President)."
"Command recipient: User 'Li Mo Tech' (Associated information: Freelance programmer, has undertaken numerous anonymous projects for the Night Consortium)."
"Detected command content: 'Immediately generate an AI face-swapping video of Lin Xiaoya admitting to using industrial alcohol and apologizing, push it across the internet, and cover trending topics!'"
Lin Xiaoya’s pupils constricted!
Lin Xiaoyu! Li Mo!
These two names were not unfamiliar to her!
Lin Xiaoyu, one of the secretaries to the Night Consortium President Lu Chen Zhou, was ruthless and was Lu Chen Zhou’s most loyal executor!
Li Mo, a top-tier but utterly unscrupulous programmer, specialized in taking on shady jobs and had helped the Night Consortium handle "dirty work" in his previous life!
They were actually going to use such a despicable method as AI face-swapping to retaliate!
Once that fabricated apology video was pushed out, combined with the data of Zhou Tao that was being deleted, the truth would be instantly reversed!
The public would only see "Lin Xiaoya admitting to fraud," while Zhou Tao’s self-explosion would instead become evidence of her framing and sabotage!
What a clever move to cut off the source!
A chill rose from the soles of Lin Xiaoya’s feet.
Lu Chen Zhou… indeed still so ruthless!
"System! Immediately analyze Li Mo's AI face-swapping algorithm!"
"Command received! Scanning target 'Li Mo Tech' common algorithm models…"
"Scan complete! The commonly used algorithm is 'DeepFake-Plus V3.7.'"
"Conducting vulnerability scan…"
"Fatal vulnerability detected: This algorithm has a 0.3-second micro-frame delay and data desynchronization issue during real-time facial expression switching!"
"The system has marked it as [Red Alert]!"
0.3 seconds!
Lin Xiaoya's eyes suddenly lit up!
This is it!
In her previous life, she had vaguely heard that while Li Mo's algorithm was powerful, it sacrificed some stability in pursuit of efficiency, resulting in a delay vulnerability that was extremely difficult to detect!
She never expected it to be true!
And now, this vulnerability is the key to her turning the tables!
Time is running out!
Zhou Tao's data deletion progress has already surged to 90%!
Li Mo's AI face-swapping attack was likely to launch at any moment.
Lin Xiaoya took a deep breath, forcing herself to remain as calm as possible.
Her mind raced, and a bold plan quickly took shape.
She glanced at the live stream, where the barrage of comments surged like a tidal wave, her eyes catching the glaring red hashtag of Industrial Alcohol Essence trending.
A cold and resolute smile slowly curved her lips.
"System, prepare to activate 'Data Tracking' and 'AI Face-Swap Decryption' functions."
"All expenses will be charged to my personal account in advance!"
What she aimed to do was not just to thwart this attack.
She intended to make the Dark Night Consortium pay a far more painful price for their arrogance and cruelty!
Just then, her personal phone vibrated unexpectedly.
An encrypted message from an unknown number slid in quietly.
