Chapter 281 Is the new album far away?
Li Yonghu and his companion were horrified, clutching their heads. The assistant, whose face was covered in blood, stopped wailing, his eyes filled with surging hatred and schadenfreude.
While the Li Yonghu brothers were under control, the online discussion about the matter became increasingly heated due to the involvement of Wen Yuan and others.
Especially after seeing those big shots stepping forward to support Ye Wanxi, some people who were secretly keeping an eye on things began to understand the situation.
Those influential bloggers who are used to changing their tune with the wind, regardless of whether they had been bribed by Strawberry Pictures before, have now all spoken in unison and expressed their support for Liu Yunrui.
Some legal bloggers, sensing the opportunity, began analyzing the unfair contracts with Strawberry Pictures that Liu Yunrui had revealed.
The conclusion is that most of these treaties were written by exploiting loopholes in the law, and because they were too harsh, some conditions were actually legally ineffective.
However, many of those who signed these treaties lacked the necessary expertise and had no idea how to get rid of these tyrannical contracts, leaving them at the mercy of their superiors.
If a group of people could take this contract and countersue their company for maliciously creating a contract trap and suspected fraud.
Sometimes, some things require someone to take the lead, and they also require an opportunity.
After these legal bloggers analyzed the contracts, some real victims finally began to speak out in support.
What He Shang's incident reflects is just the tip of the iceberg; their company is not just about Li Yonghu, an old screenwriter who reaps the benefits without effort.
It's just because he has a cousin who's a vice president, so he usually gets priority access to any good scripts.
Just like the four films written by He Shang, he chose two of them, and the scripts for the other two films that he didn't like ended up in the hands of another screenwriter.
He Shang's experience is not an isolated case; more than twenty other people have posted online saying that they were also among those who were tricked.
Among them were some imposters who would stop at nothing to gain popularity, but Liu Yunrui knew this was her chance.
She quickly contacted these voices and filtered out those who truly needed help.
It was at this time that the video of Li Yonghu and his cousin being taken away by the police began to circulate online.
Some media outlets, having already sensed the juicy gossip, rushed to the vicinity of the company to stake out the area, and managed to capture the moment the two got into the car.
The release of this video sparked great excitement among netizens.
[Sobbing, everyone's efforts paid off! They've been arrested! Hopefully, the police will be swift and give those oppressed and victimized people a just outcome.]
This is what most people hope for, but there are also some who are pessimistic. Some people even thought of Li Yonghu's wife and children because of his arrest, and wanted to drag his wife and children into the mess and curse them as well.
When Liu Yunrui saw those extremely biased comments, her heart skipped a beat; that was exactly what she feared most.
As an adult, I have some resilience, but I still can't remain calm in the face of these comments, let alone her two children, especially her youngest daughter.
The thought of them being discriminated against and bullied by others, just like the online comments cursing Li Yonghu, her, and the two children, and how the two children would suffer even more unfair treatment in the future because of having such a father, made Liu Yunrui feel suffocated.
Just as Liu Yunrui was lost in thought, wondering how to keep the two children away from all this trouble and do everything she could to protect them, Ye Wanxi suddenly posted a third update.
"Wanxi isn't lamenting [V]: Precisely target the perpetrators, don't become like them, okay?"
A perpetrator-like person? What kind of person is Li Yonghu? He is hypocritical, arrogant, and ruthless in achieving his goals. He even goes so far as to harm children to eliminate any potential threats to his own peace of mind.
Ye Wanxi's post makes it very clear: if you want to criticize, criticize Li Yonghu and his cousin, or all the perpetrators related to this incident at Strawberry Pictures, instead of dragging innocent people into it by blaming Li Yonghu's family, the initiators who were willing to dig up this festering wound, and the innocent children.
If they really did that, how would their actions be any different from Li Yonghu's?
Ye Wanxi's words at least silenced her fans for the time being, and also made some people who were willing to listen to reason restrain themselves.
Although some people are still relentless, the situation is much better than before.
After that, Ye Wanxi selected one reply from among the many friends who forwarded and commented on her posts.
"Wanxi isn't regretting it [V]: The new song is out, is the new album far behind? After listening to the new song, I feel like I didn't pre-order the album enough. Could you please make an exception and add a few more copies for me? //@Nie Yuyang [V]: I believe in Xiaoye, and I wish everything goes well..."
As soon as this post was published, Nie Yuyang was stunned.
Nie Yuyang's manager was someone else assigned to him by the company after he was noticed by a musician. His previous manager had already abandoned him when his popularity declined and went to manage other artists.
Upon seeing Ye Wanxi's post specifically tagging Nie Yuyang, his face was filled with shock.
"You...you're very familiar with Miss Ye?"
“We’re not exactly close.” When Ye Wanxi was mentioned, Nie Yuyang, who was usually quiet, became unusually interested. “I participated in a variety show with her before. We spent less than two days together and didn’t exchange more than five sentences.”
Agent: "..." They're indeed not familiar with each other, but since they're not familiar...
Before the agent could think further, Nie Yuyang continued, "But before she left, she gave me a small gift, and since I didn't have anything to give her in return, she..."
"What about her?" The manager's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at his artist with even more fervor.
"She asked me to send her a copy of the new album when I release it in six months."
"Six months later, a new album..." The manager looked incredulous, then overjoyed.
"Yu Yang, you're going to be famous! You're going to be famous!"
Nie Yuyang looked at his manager, who was patting his shoulder and jumping and shouting excitedly, and asked blankly, "What?"
"You said that this Miss Ye didn't want any return gifts half a year ago, only your new album. What does that mean?"
"Does that mean she already knew I would release a new album in six months?"
The manager smacked him on the head in exasperation: "Idiot! This shows she has high hopes for you, is sure you'll release a new album, and is sure you'll be a hit. She's sure your album will be in high demand, which is why she used the word 'pre-order' in that post!"
The agent's face turned red at the thought.
If anyone else said that, the agent would just think it was flattery. But since it was Ye Wanxi who said it, there's no doubt that his artist will become famous, extremely famous!
