Online, after discovering that someone was deliberately stirring up trouble, netizens began to speculate.
Some people speculated that Luo Shixi bought himself publicity, and after being exposed, someone took advantage of his misfortune. Others wondered if Luo Shixi was directing and acting in the drama himself, with the goal of earning enough traffic.
But more people started to come up with conspiracy theories, saying that all this was like a trap, but there were two groups of people involved in the trap. The first group obviously wanted to praise Luo Shixi to death, but the second group wanted to trample Luo Shixi to death.
The two methods are completely different, but their purpose is very clear: to make Luo Shixi unhappy.
More people stood in the middle, wavering and unable to see clearly. But they all knew in their hearts that the trainees who didn't want Luo Shixi to have an easy time must be his competitors. But watching the behind-the-scenes footage and the variety shows, everyone got along very well and smiled. This situation of being one thing behind the scenes and another on the surface made people feel dissatisfied.
If you want to debut, you should practice hard. Why are you playing tricks like that? Luo Shixi is really miserable. He is bullied like this because he has no background.
The originally one-sided trend has now exceeded some people's expectations, but no matter what, Luo Shixi's college entrance examination results have become the most concerned thing for every spectator.
Meanwhile, the director.
The assistant director asked the director to come over quickly, "Director, I received an email, please take a look."
"What email?" The director was puzzled and walked over to take a look.
The more he looked at her, the gloomier her expression became, until she was completely gloomy. She asked him, "Who sent it to you?"
Assistant Director: "This was sent directly to our mailbox, without a signature. I asked someone to check it, but they couldn't find the source. They said it was the IP address of a virtual overseas site."
"Go check it out online first, quick!"
The assistant director understood what the director meant and quickly checked online. He changed the keywords several times but still found no relevant information. "It seems that the other party did not post it directly online, but only sent it to us."
The assistant director breathed a sigh of relief after he finished speaking.
If the information were to leak onto the Internet when they were completely unprepared, it would be a huge blow to their entire program team. White Bear TV would definitely not miss this opportunity and would definitely take advantage of it.
He was relieved, but the director still frowned, "I'll go find the supervisory team that's counting the votes."
"Let me go." The assistant director was about to stand up, but was pushed back by the director.
"Just wait and see if this person will send you emails again. Also, keep an eye on the online news and contact Lao Wang."
The assistant director responded: "Yeah, yes."
Watching the director's hurried back, the directors who had not dared to come out because of his anger immediately became active again.
Another assistant director touched the assistant director's arm: "Old Li, what's going on? Our director hasn't been angry for a long time."
"What else could it be? Someone is cheating."
"Vote manipulation? I'm not saying this, but this is a talent show. It's normal for people to manipulate votes. You shouldn't be so angry." The other assistant director spoke in a lower and lower voice, and finally whispered in the assistant director's ear.
They are involved in the dark side of these talent shows and know it better.
The assistant director called Lao Li sighed, "What if I say that he swiped a full 600,000 votes?"
"Sixty?!"
Old Li rubbed his unfortunate ears and repeated, "Sixty."
Everyone gasped.
A staff member standing at the edge of the room changed his expression. However, since everyone else was in shock, it did not arouse suspicion from others.
In the early stages of talent shows, 600,000 votes were enough for a trainee with no foundation to qualify for two elimination rounds. Even now that talent shows are at their peak, 600,000 votes are enough to shock people.
"Who is so brave??"
Lao Li said nothing, "Okay, go away and do your own thing."
Everyone dispersed after hearing the news, but everyone was very excited to know such a big piece of news, and they whispered to the people around them.
"If you ask me, it's because he has too much money to spare. Ticket swiping is not cheap. He just casually spent 600,000 yuan. He is so generous. But I am very curious about which trainee is so bold. What do you think, Xiao Zhou? Xiao Sun?"
After being called a few more times, the new intern named Xiao Sun covered his stomach with a worried look on his face, "Sister Wang, I might have had an upset stomach this morning. I suddenly have a stomachache. I'm going to the toilet first!"
Sister Wang heard this and said, "Oh my!" "Then go! Be careful and don't eat anything carelessly."
Xiao Sun replied, "I know," and ran to the toilet in a panic.
Sister Wang looked at his anxious appearance and shook her head, "Really? You only know how to eat randomly."
Xiao Sun entered the restroom, walked to the last cubicle and locked the door, then quickly took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
Since the call didn’t go through the first time, Xiao Sun didn’t call again. He just waited anxiously with his phone in his hand, pacing around in the small cubicle.
Soon, the phone call came.
"Brother Sun? Why did you suddenly call me? They almost found out." The voice on the other end of the phone was Liang Yuan.
Xiao Sun could hear the complaint in Liang Yuan's tone, but he didn't have time to joke with Liang Yuan. "Liang Yuan, let me ask you, did you cheat?"
Liang Yuan listened to the questioning voices from the other side. An intern was even pointing fingers at him. He became unhappy and said, "Whether I swiped the ticket or not has nothing to do with Brother Sun."
Xiao Sun thought that if your agent hadn't given you money, no one would care whether you lived or died.
"I don't know how many votes you have rigged, but today the director team received an anonymous email reporting a contestant who rigged 600,000 votes. The evidence is irrefutable, and the director has already gone to the production team."
There was no sound from the other side for a long while.
Xiao Sun: "Hello! Hello? Are you still listening?"
"…Has he already gone there?" The voice on the other end was hoarse.
Little Sun naturally heard it and thought, wow, it turned out that your grandson was the one who voted.
Xiao Sun: "Yes, I have found it. You can think of what to do."
"I want to? No, Brother Sun, do you think this matter can be..."
Before Liang Yuan could finish, Xiao Sun interrupted him, "I came to you today to talk about this. I have work to do now, so I'll go get busy first."
Whoever is responsible for this matter should take care of it. He has done enough as an intern.
As soon as he opened the door, Xiao Sun broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, "He, He brother."
He Yu didn't know Xiao Sun, so he just nodded.
"Brother He, it's alright, I'll go out first."
He Yu responded and took another look at Xiao Sun, who had a strange look on his face. Xiao Sun forced a smile and quickly left He Yu's sight.
===
At the other end, Liang Yuan could hardly stand. He didn't care whether the toilet wall was dirty or not. He leaned on it as if exhausted, grabbed his collar and gasped for a few times. Then he opened the door with trembling hands, went back to the corridor and entered a classroom, but it was not the classroom for his group.
"Brother, I have something to talk to you about." He said to the person who was practicing dancing inside.
"What's the matter?" The man came out and saw Liang Yuan's pale face and sweat all over his forehead.
Liang Yuan pulled him into the nearest toilet cubicle, and quickly locked the door, acting as flustered as a thief.
"What's going on?" the man asked with a frown.
Liang Yuan swallowed his saliva and said in a tense voice, "Brother, I was caught for ticket swiping."
The man was impatient, "If they are caught, they are caught. At most, we can bribe them and give them some money to keep quiet."
Seeing that Liang Yuan still looked unhappy, the man asked, "Why are you still like this? ... How many votes did you swipe?"
"Six hundred thousand..."
"How many?!"
"Six hundred thousand or so." Liang Yuan's voice was as soft as a mosquito.
"You... are you fucking crazy?"
Six hundred thousand!
It's only the third episode, and they've already reached 600,000! Should we say Liang Yuan is fearless or just being so damn bold!
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Liang Yuan panicked and reached out to grab his sleeve, but was dodged in an instant.
"Brother... Brother, please help me. I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong... The director has already gone to the production team. He will definitely come to find me. I might be kicked out of the program and forced to withdraw. People on the Internet might even scold me."
The man was so angry that he laughed, "You beg me, what can I do to help you?"
Seeing him turn around and leave, Liang Yuan's originally distracted eyes suddenly became firm. He looked at the man's hand on the door handle and gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, if you don't help me, I will tell Luo Shixi what you did. There are so many people defending him, do you think you can get it?"
The door handle was slowly released, and the man turned around and asked, "What did I do?"
Liang Yuan: "I heard everything, and I even recorded it."
There was an eerie silence in the compartment.
Liang Yulan was standing outside the cubicle door, turning a working recorder in his hand.
Oh, Liang Yuan still has some brains, he actually recorded it.
