Chapter 25 Debunking the Rumors



He didn't expect that just venting a little would cause such a stir. He panicked when he saw the netizens in the comments section cursing his ancestors for eighteen generations.

The phone rang at that moment.

"Hello! Dad, what's up?"

"I'm asking you, are you the guy looking at the clouds from the bushes?"

Lin Yun was completely bewildered.

"Dad, that's not grass, it's woods, we're looking at the white clouds from the woods."

"I don't care where you're hiding and watching the clouds, I just want to ask you why you want Chen Feng dead?"

"You little brat, do you even know that if it weren't for Chen Feng singing 'My Deskmate' and making your mother cry, you'd be an orphan right now?"

Lin Yun was dumbfounded. Had his father gone mad? What was he talking about?

Why?

"Why? Your mother and I were going to get a divorce a week ago, and we agreed that after the divorce, the property would be split in half. As for you, you're an adult now, so neither of us wants you."

"But that very night, Chen Feng sang 'My Deskmate' and made your mother cry on the spot. In the end, he hugged me and said he loved me to death. Tell me, what a great favor that is."

The person on the phone sounded very excited.

Finally, Lin Yun hung up the phone, his mind buzzing. He slumped to the ground, unable to understand why all of this had happened.

That wasn't all; the online comments terrified him even more, so he immediately called the police.

"Brothers, we found it. It's at the Grand Hotel. That son of a bitch knows how to enjoy life. It's a five-star hotel."

"What? In the Grand Court? I'm just a waiter in the hotel, in what room? I'm going up there right now and beat that bastard to a pulp for daring to curse my Fengshen."

"Hey upstairs, wait for me! I'm the head of security, I have connections."

......

The press conference was successfully held.

A solemn and dignified spokesperson, making a serious statement.

"Recently, we have noticed that various rumors circulating online have become increasingly rampant, which has caused serious damage to the image and public security of our city. Therefore, in order to restore the truth of the matter as soon as possible and give the public the truth, our city's police officers have conducted an in-depth investigation, confirmed the identity of the body found in Donghe, and found relevant evidence of suicide."

"This also proves that the rumors linking the body on the riverbank to the recent disappearance of Chen Feng circulating online are unfounded. In order to gain the trust of the public, our city's police have contacted Mr. Chen Feng and he himself filmed a video."

"Therefore, the Chengdu-Chongqing Public Security Bureau reminds netizens that the internet is not a lawless zone. Do not spread rumors or cause trouble. Those who cause serious consequences will be held legally responsible."

Immediately afterwards, the press conference played a video of Chen Feng filming the incident.

"Hello everyone! I am Chen Feng. First of all, I am very sorry that due to personal reasons, rumors have spread on the Internet and caused a waste of social resources."

......

"I am very grateful to the netizens for their love and concern. I am fine. I just went back to my hometown. The signal is bad in the mountains, so I haven't been online much."

......

"Many netizens are really looking forward to when I will release an album. Actually, I have received some calls from entertainment companies, but I did not answer them. The reason is very simple: I am preparing to release an album and start my own entertainment company."

"As you've probably all seen online, the Zhongxin Building across from Huayu, cough cough, I heard that the entertainment company there is called Fengyu Entertainment, I think you all understand what I mean."

......

"Finally, I assure everyone that once my company is fully renovated, it will be operational immediately, and I will release my personal album. I will also extend an online invitation to singers and producers to come and develop their careers at my company."

Like a stone thrown into a still pond, Chen Feng's video caused a huge uproar online as soon as it was released.

"My god, I thought Feng Da was just an ordinary person, but he's actually a dragon! It's so obvious. He acquired the Zhongxin Building for billions of yuan. He's so rich!"

"Wow, Fengshen is amazing! Is he really holding a grudge against Huayu Entertainment for refusing to sign him? He's even opening a company right across from theirs. But where did Fengshen get so much money?"

"There's a baby downstairs. Do you think you can start a company just by having money? Please go and check what kind of asset the Zhongxin Building is. It's not something that just anyone can buy."

"So, Chen Feng has some unknown secrets behind him? Does everyone remember the night he suddenly became famous a week ago, when his rented apartment was exposed?"

“I can testify that it’s true that he lived in a rented room because I lived upstairs from him, and it’s also true that he was poor before he became famous because I never saw any trash outside his door except for instant noodle boxes.”

After the release of Chen Feng's video, netizens' speculations and rumors instantly shifted to speculation and investigation about Chen Feng himself, and major media outlets began to scramble to report on relevant content about Fengyu Entertainment Company.

Meanwhile, some people began to dig deeper into the specific individuals involved in the acquisition of the Zhongxin Building, but they were all warned by different authorities.

"Damn it, damn it, this Chen Feng, you're clearly a piece of trash, how could you possibly have such great abilities?"

Lin Yun was filled with impotent rage. In just one week, only a short week, Chen Feng's displayed strength had already filled him with despair. And all of this should have been reversed.

If it were just singing, he could fantasize about one day having a burst of inspiration and writing a song that would become a global hit. But right now, Chen Feng has spent billions to start his own entertainment company, and not only that, he opened it right across from Huayu Entertainment. This is something he can't even imagine.

Not only Lin Yun, but also the top executives of Huayu Entertainment were furious. Wasn't this a blatant slap in the face? Huayu Entertainment had been a prominent company in the entertainment industry for decades. Didn't they have any pride?

Yang Zhi even roared at the board meeting, "No matter who Chen Feng is behind, we must deal with him. If we don't, we'll be letting down the reputation of Huayu."

This stunned everyone present. Was this guy crazy?

When the chairman of Huayu Entertainment walked in with a dark face, he was still speaking, and was slapped to the ground by the chairman.

Yang Zhi was somewhat dazed from the beating and didn't know where he was for a moment.

The chairman sighed and said, "The higher-ups have given orders that we must not investigate the forces behind Chen Feng in any way. Furthermore, we cannot use any abnormal methods to deal with Fengyu Entertainment, but we can use any unspoken rules."

"In short, healthy competition is acceptable, but vicious competition will be uncontrollable by the authorities."

After the chairman finished speaking, everyone in the room gasped. These few words seemed ordinary, but the meaning they contained was terrifying.

As an entertainment company that controls the most important transactions in China's entertainment industry, it's impossible for them not to have incredibly powerful connections and relationships. Many of you here know just how terrifying their biggest backer is.

Even so, that important figure still issued a warning. What does this mean? It means that the people or forces behind Chen Feng are just as powerful as, or even more powerful than, their backers in Huayu.
