Chapter 544 Devil Editing
Upon hearing this, Aunt Meng's smile vanished completely: "If Wanxi's grades aren't good, then there's no one in City A with good grades! Wanxi was the top student in her school in the college entrance exam, and she received her admission letter from University A not long after! If the old dean hadn't suddenly passed away due to illness, she wouldn't have..."
Aunt Meng seemed to realize that she had accidentally said too much, and quickly stopped herself: "Anyway, Wanxi's grades are very good. The reason she didn't go to university is for other reasons, definitely not because of her grades."
The reporter was a little stunned when he heard the name "University A," but still dutifully asked again: "So, she really didn't go to university."
Aunt Meng was surprised that even after she had explained things so clearly, this person still kept asking questions.
Aunt Meng wasn't stupid. At this point, she could easily see that the reporter had ill intentions. She immediately put on a stern face and said, "So what if it is? Wanxi is so outstanding. Even if she didn't go to university, she's doing better than many people now! What's wrong with you? I've already made it so clear, yet you still keep asking. Are you trying to harm our Wanxi? Stop filming! Stop filming!"
The video ends abruptly here. The video, which is about ten minutes long, has a beginning and an end, is unedited, and is clear and straightforward.
The so-called angry rebuke only appeared at the end when Aunt Meng realized something was wrong and drove the unscrupulous reporter away.
Ironically, just minutes before this blogger released the video, a negative hashtag about Ye Wanxi suddenly appeared at the top of the trending topics list.
The name of this entry is #Ye Wanxi Orphanage#
Clicking through reveals that these marketing accounts have also posted a video claiming it's interview material from a recent interview with the director of the orphanage where Ye Wanxi grew up.
Many people clicked in and found that the video looked the same at first glance as the video posted by the enthusiastic blogger, but upon closer inspection, something seemed off.
Specifically:
Reporter: "I heard that Ye Wanxi, who has recently become very popular in the entertainment industry, also grew up in your compound. Does she often come back to visit you?"
Aunt Meng looked wary: "She's very busy."
Reporter: "Ye Wanxi is a very popular star right now. It is said that her salary for a single film is as high as eight figures. However, I don't seem to see her name on your orphanage's donation list."
Aunt Meng said coldly, "Whether you donate or not is a matter of personal feelings; the most important thing is that everyone is happy."
Reporter: "Was Ye Wanxi adopted when she was a child?"
"No."
Reporter: "Why?"
Aunt Meng: "Adults and children are not meant to be together. If the two sides cannot reach a consensus, there is no way to force it."
Reporter: "Ye Wanxi was only eighteen or nineteen years old when she entered the entertainment industry. Some netizens have pointed out that she never went to university. Was it because she didn't do well in high school and failed the entrance exam?"
Aunt Meng retorted angrily, "So what if it is? Wanxi is so outstanding. Even though she didn't go to university, she's doing better than many people now!"
Netizens watching the drama: "???"
Gao Min and her assistant: "!!!"
The mastermind and online army who orchestrated everything behind the scenes: "..."
The words are the same, but after being edited and manipulated with some tricks, the content is completely different.
If it weren't for that enthusiastic blogger who felt something was wrong when seeing the online discussions about Ye Wanxi's donation, and who took the initiative to post the video he had secretly filmed to clarify things for Ye Wanxi.
Judging from the video released by these marketing accounts, how many people would think that Ye Wanxi is a hypocritical, vain, and morally corrupt academic failure who is greedy for wealth and loves the poor? They would attack and curse her as an ungrateful wretch.
Aunt Meng, who originally regarded Ye Wanxi as her pride, will feel remorse, anger, regret, and sadness when she learns that she has unwittingly become a weapon in the hands of these unscrupulous media outlets to harm her beloved child.
Netizens quickly realized that this was an epic smear campaign gone wrong, and they were all eager to take action, furious and determined to crush these unscrupulous media outlets.
Gao Min was so angry she laughed on the spot, her expression cold and ferocious as she said, "Now, immediately, find that media outlet that went to bother the dean and send them a lawyer's letter. This isn't over! Damn it, do they really think our Wanxi has no backing and is easy to bully? If I don't destroy them, I'll..."
Gao Min was about to say that her surname wasn't Gao, but then she realized she wasn't that important, so she changed her words and said, "The boss's surname isn't Xiao!"
Xiao Yuti, completely unaware that she had been caught in the crossfire, was left speechless: "???"
The equally indignant assistant and the PR guy standing nearby: "..." Is it okay to swear on the boss?
However, this does not prevent them from empathizing with the situation and sharing a common hatred of the enemy.
The PR guy was about to run back to convey her message when, before he even left, his boss came running over on his own.
"Why are you here? What happened this time?"
"Great news!" The head of the public relations department handed the newly appeared documents in the email to Gao Min, telling her to take a good look.
Gao Min was stunned when she saw the email, and exclaimed in surprise, "You've got results so quickly?"
"It was fast, but this time it's not our doing. This email just appeared in my inbox. I just checked with people in the department, and it's all true. I don't know which genius couldn't stand seeing our Xiao Ye being slandered like this, so they came up with this document."
Gao Min was taken aback, but after his reminder, she quickly realized where this thing came from.
How could she forget that their boss was just the most insignificant one among the powerful backers of their own artists?
The most unassuming Boss Xiao: "Hey!"
Putting everything else aside, just look at her "brothers"—any one of them could easily beat these haters to a pulp.
However, such neatly arranged documents must belong to that person...
Seeing Gao Min staring blankly at the email, not knowing how to turn it over for a long time, the minister next to her became anxious and said, "Take a look quickly. This incident is definitely not accidental. Someone is trying to frame Xiao Ye."
This incident was a premeditated attempt to smear Ye Wanxi across the entire internet. Gao Min had anticipated this, but she really couldn't imagine who would want to do this to their own artist.
This search uncovered an unexpected person.
"Xiang Xiaoxiao? How could it be her?"
Xiang Xiaoxiao was already a well-known actress with high popularity in the industry a long time ago. She is now in her early thirties. She filmed many high-rated TV dramas in her early years, and in recent years she has transformed into a serious actress.
In contrast, Ye Wanxi, despite her high popularity, has never had particularly abundant resources. Compared to Ye Wanxi, who was a workaholic in the industry and starred in several dramas a year during her peak, she is simply incomparable.
Such a person should have no conflict of interest with Ye Wanxi.
Why did they suddenly attack their artist, and with such a vicious look that they wanted to kill her?
