One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Yang Chenyi's inappropriate remarks have gone viral online!
Netizens immediately launched into a tirade, delivering direct and scathing critiques.
[A fangirl spending over a thousand yuan on a concert ticket isn't expensive, but did you know that many girls can't even afford sanitary napkins these days?]
So, is it because sanitation workers don't work hard enough that they can't afford your concert tickets?
My husband is a doctor with a bachelor's degree from a top-tier university. He's been working in a small county for ten years, performing 40 to 50 surgeries a month. Each surgery costs 20 yuan, and his company pays him 4,000 to 6,000 yuan a month. It must be because he's not working hard enough that he can't buy me concert tickets!
I have a master's degree from a top-tier university (985), but after graduation I couldn't find a job and had to deliver food to support my family! I have to deliver over 500 orders a month to get extra bonuses! I deliver 800 orders a month, and before tax I only earn about 7,000 yuan, and that's without getting any bad reviews—one bad review costs me 500 yuan! Rain or shine, in the scorching heat or freezing cold, I have to keep running orders! I used to be one of the best among my peers; I worked hard for 18 years to graduate with a master's degree, but I ended up as a delivery driver! Yang Chenyi said I didn't work hard enough and told me to reflect on my actions. I'm sorry, but to earn over 10,000 yuan a month, I have to deliver 60 orders a day. I really don't have time to reflect on whether I'm working hard or not!
A doctor's video went viral online.
In the video, the head of surgery responded calmly to Yang Chenyi's efforts.
He performed 80 surgeries last month and treated more than 400 outpatients. His salary and bonuses totaled just over 40,000 yuan.
The average income per surgery is less than 500 yuan, which is even less than the income of a hairdresser in Shanghai.
Moreover, last month, the cost of one of his cancer patients exceeded the limit, and the extra 14,000 yuan had to be deducted from his salary.
He worked hard for most of his life to become one of the top thoracic surgeons in the country, but he still couldn't afford a concert ticket.
The doctor's remarks sparked a public outcry.
Society is so distorted; those who wield scalpels are less respected than those who wield razors!
How tragic! A singer can earn hundreds of millions by singing a few lines and dancing on stage, while top surgeons in the country are losing money on treatments!
[Our PhDs and Masters are delivering food; can you say they aren't working hard? Aren't sanitation workers hardworking? Aren't scientists hardworking? Aren't top doctors hardworking? The high-income groups who reap the benefits of the times are mocking precisely those who contribute to society and are the hardest working!]
Society can live without popular singers, but it cannot live without scientists, firefighters, doctors, and sanitation workers!
Most people work diligently in their jobs their entire lives and still can't earn as much as a top-tier celebrity or internet influencer in a single day!
Boycott popular celebrities and internet influencers!
Yang Chenyi was absolutely furious!
He really doesn't understand, where are the concert tickets so expensive?
His concert tickets are really reasonably priced, okay?
Other people's concert tickets are being resold for 2 million, while my highest-selling ticket only went for 100,000!
These fangirls keep saying they love him, but they can't even afford tickets that cost thousands of yuan. What else can you call them if they're not trying?
After the broadcast was suspended, the agent hired online PR teams while simultaneously begging Yang Chenyi to apologize.
Yang Chenyi retorted, "What did I do wrong? Am I wrong? Why can some girls spend 2 million to see their idol's concert, while they complain about how expensive tickets costing a few thousand? Isn't that their problem?"
The agent panicked.
"My dear ancestor, please, stop talking so recklessly! Everyone's kicking you when you're down. So many people are waiting to see you fall. You should apologize right now!"
Yang Chenyi disagreed. "I won't apologize. I wasn't wrong. If they were willing to work hard, couldn't they afford a ticket with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan even if they didn't eat or drink? Do you think they love me but don't show it through their actions, or that they just talk about it?"
The agent could only try to persuade him with earnest words.
"My little Chenchen, don't say that. Your fans all know that loving you means spending money on you. They've never been stingy with their love for you!"
"Even if these people can't bear to spend 100 yuan to buy their boyfriends sneakers, and they won't even treat their boyfriends to breakfast, they're willing to spend thousands or tens of thousands of yuan on concerts!"
"But the voices online right now aren't from these people, they're from the haters! If the public outcry continues and the authorities investigate, what will we do?"
The agent knew that Yang Chenyi was stubborn. After all, he was a person with a net worth of over 3 billion yuan. How could he possibly empathize with a loser from the bottom of society?
He doesn't think there's anything wrong with what he said!
So, the agent used her trump card, showing him the highly-rated comments in the comment section.
"Netizens are calling for a tax investigation, and we also have an agreement with our partners that if a tax investigation is conducted, your future will be over! If our partners all sue us, the penalty for breach of contract will be astronomical. You'll have to apologize for that!"
Yang Chenyi remained silent.
After a long silence, he said angrily.
"Fine, I apologize. I'll apologize to these brain-dead idiots. I'll apologize while crying. Is that alright?"
The agent beamed, "That's right, Chenchen. It's just a matter of you saying a few words while crying. Those idiots and sycophants will come back to fawn over you. What are you afraid of? Is there an easier way to make money?"
Yang Chenyi took a car back to the company, had the makeup artist apply a haggard, sickly makeup to him, and then began practicing.
He couldn't cry no matter what he did, and he had to use eye drops several times.
Finally, having no other choice, I put onion juice on a tissue, which brought tears to my eyes.
After finally finishing recording the video and preparing to release it, they discovered that Su Can's apology video was at the top of the entertainment trending list!
