Chapter 198 The "Pits Attract Each Other" Duo (asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets)
The longed-for yard was cleared out by Lin Fan, and the nearby hotels were all full. Even Xiaoyu didn't want to stay in an ordinary B&B, so she simply moved into Xia Yan's villa.
In the evening, Lian Xiaoyu called Xia Yan while taking a bath and told him everything that happened that day.
"Yanyan, you don't know how annoying that landlord is. He dared to pretend to be a Fanfan employee at the gate of Xiangwang Courtyard and drove away those tourists. Some tourists even said Fanfan was disgusting without knowing the truth! If I hadn't shown up in time to save the situation, Fanfan might have been bullied by them!"
Xia Yan ignored the other useless words in Lian Xiaoyu's words and only picked out the main topic: "The landlord is making trouble?"
"Yes, the landlord had bad intentions from the beginning. He deliberately left a loophole in the contract. Now he is forcing Fanfan to make a choice: either move out or spend 13 million to buy the yard."
Xia Yan said softly: "Lin Fan doesn't have that much money."
Xia Yan knew very well how much effort Lin Fan had put into the Longing Courtyard. The loophole in the contract was one thing, but the most important thing was that Lin Fan was unwilling to give up this B&B. The landlord probably saw this, so he was so unscrupulous, and the landlord chose a very good time! Longing Courtyard had just become popular, and it was a critical moment to see the return of money. Asking Lin Fan to move out at this time was simply asking Lin Fan to die!
Although Lian Xiaoyu said that Lin Fan was ruthless and wanted to teach the landlord a lesson, this matter still needed to be resolved.
"What should I do now? My dad won't lend me any money! How about Yanyan, can you help Fanfan?"
"I know about this matter, don't worry, I will take care of it."
Xia Yan hung up the phone and did not rush to contact Lin Fan. Instead, he went to find Chen Yuan: "Yuanyuan, check if there are any latest topics about the longing yard on the Internet."
Chen Yuan was just about to tell Xia Yan about this.
In the afternoon, these fans living in Xiangwang Yard uploaded several short videos to the Ganfanren fan group, all of which were about the dispute between Lin Fan and the landlord.
The landlord's ugly face made Chen Yuan very angry. But Xia Yan was busy at that time, so Chen Yuan did not tell her about it in time. Now that Xia Yan asked about it, Chen Yuan quickly told Xia Yan the whole story.
"Yuji Wang and Mengmeng want to raise funds to help Fanfan buy the yard, but it's not a small amount and it's hard to raise that much money in a short time. The fans don't want Yu Mengmeng to pay for it herself, and..."
Moreover, if this matter is publicized, Lin Fan will be criticized again. Asking fans to crowdfund to help him buy a homestay is something that cannot be washed away! In addition, Lin Fan has been criticized for making money before. If this crowdfunding matter is exposed again, netizens who eat melons will not care about the ins and outs of the matter. They will only remember that Lin Fan asked fans to spend money for him again.
Once a label is put on, it is not easy to tear it off.
As they were talking, Yang Hongxia came over: "Yanyan, have you read the news online?"
…
"Tourists were blackmailed for no reason, and the courtyard they longed for arrogantly drove away the onlookers"
《Shocking! A certain internet celebrity homestay refused to allow taking photos, and actually resorted to the trick of falling to the ground to blackmail people! 》
"An old man fell down in front of the gate of the courtyard he longed for, and passers-by looked on indifferently"
…
The content of the news was similar, all about the landlord causing trouble at the entrance of Xiangwang Yard this afternoon, but the headlines were more shocking than the last. If you didn't read the content, it seemed as if Lin Fan hired scoundrels to blackmail people in order to drive away tourists who were taking photos! Both Lin Fan and Xiangwang Yard were very popular. As soon as this sensational news came out, it immediately sparked heated discussions among netizens.
The fans also quickly came out to defend Lin Fan and released the short videos that Yu Mengmeng and others had sent to the group. This caused an uproar.
[A faint smell of scumbag: Can the contract still be effective if there are loopholes? Is there no one who can control this arrogant landlord? ]
[The feeling of chrysanthemums blooming: Even Xiao Yukeng and Lin Fan are no less impressive. No wonder these two can work together. Their relationship is like 'horses attract each other'! ]
[Finding a mother for my son: Is this Lin Fan's own hype? There are waves of news about him, he is on the news every day, and he is on the hot search every day. It never ends! ]
…
There were various voices, but most of them supported Lin Fan's rights protection. Chinese people hate this kind of thing of blackmailing others without reason. In addition, the landlord tampered with the contract first, and then pretended to be an employee of Xiangwang Courtyard to deliberately anger the tourists. He was a complete bad guy, so he attracted most of the fire.
Yang Hongxia said: "So far, Lin Fan has the moral advantage. This landlord obviously wants to extort money and leave, so he doesn't care about public opinion at all. But Lin Fan can't do that. Lin Fan must get rid of this matter as soon as possible, otherwise it will damage his reputation."
Xia Yan understood that reputation was very important to people in the entertainment industry. Even though Lin Fan had not officially debuted, he still had one foot in the industry. If this matter was not handled properly, it would greatly affect Lin Fan's reputation.
Xia Yan turned to Chen Yuan: "Yuanyuan, help me book a flight to Huahai Island as soon as possible."
…
Lin Fan also found the news online about the landlord of Xiangwang Yard coming to cause trouble. After all, the landlord was causing trouble in public, and although he was exposed by Lian Xiaoyu in the end, the impact of this incident was still quite large.
The first impact was on the reputation of Lin Fan and Xiangwang's courtyard, and the second impact was on the tourism industry of Huahai Island.
In his previous life, Lin Fan had seen a tourist destination being on the news and trending on the Internet because of the sky-high price of seafood, which ruined the reputation of the entire tourist city. What about the landlord's deliberate extortion?
In addition, Lin Fan, who is half an insider of the entertainment industry, was involved, which was exactly the news material that the media loved the most.
So within half a day, the incident had already become a hot topic on the Internet. Countless netizens came to the news and joined the army of condemning the landlord.
However, when the trend of supporting Lin Fan and denouncing the landlord was on the rise, a screenshot of the group chat was released by the self-media.
The content was a chat message in the Ganfanren fan group, where everyone was discussing crowdfunding to help Lin Fan buy the yard he longed for.
In an instant, the netizens who had just spoken out for Lin Fan on the Internet suddenly changed sides.
[Time is like pig feed: No way? Lin Fan can't come up with 13 million? Don't celebrities make money easily and earn millions in minutes? ]
[Fools are so cute: F*ck! How can this Lin Fan be so disgusting? He is trying to collect money again! He wants fans to raise 13 million yuan through crowdfunding? Why doesn’t he just go and grab it? ]
[Your moral integrity has been lost: I have never seen such a shameless person. What do Lin Fan's fans want? Lin Fan does not make any debuts and does not do business, and he cuts fans' leeks every day, but these fans are still stupid enough to send money to Lin Fan and beg him to spend it. I don't understand. ]
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
…
Haters, gather online again! Lin Fan, who had been criticized for his experience, was very calm and didn't take the comments of netizens to heart at all, but everyone in the Ganfanren fan group was furious.
[This person is probably sick: Who leaked the chat records? Isn't it obvious that this is bringing bad luck to Fanfan at this critical moment?]
[Bare-handed durian splitting: Whoever did this should leave the group! Such fans are not welcome here! ]
【Born Entertainment Reporter: Okay, don’t get too anxious. There are always a few media accounts or rival undercovers in everyone’s fan group. Just get used to it. In the future, be careful not to leak personal privacy or bring bad things to Fanfan. I will release other chat records later to clarify things for Fanfan, but I will block everyone’s nicknames, don’t worry.】
After Wang Lingli calmed down the fans in the group, she took screenshots of the chat history, blocked the names that should be blocked, and cut out the content that was not suitable to be released. After confirming that there were no problems, she posted it on the super blog of the Ganfanren Fan Club.
A statement was attached at the end.
[Regarding that 'Lin Fan's Fans Club raised funds to buy the longed-for yard' is not true. Of course, as a proposal to help our beloved Lin Fan keep his dream homestay, the fans did seriously discuss its feasibility and operability, but unfortunately, the result was that it could not be implemented.
Although Ganfanren was willing to do his best to help Fanfan, this was just Ganfanren's wishful thinking. Fanfan was unaware of this and was not willing to accept such help after learning about it. He would rather solve the problem with his own methods.
In addition, the person who leaked the chat content of the fan group without authorization, and a certain self-media, you have violated our privacy rights. We will reserve the right to use legal weapons to protect ourselves. We hope that you will turn back and repent in time and delete the relevant content. 】
…
Xia Yan, who was waiting for a flight at the airport, looked through the screenshots of the chat records posted by Wang Lingli one by one.
In the screenshots, the fans were indignant when they first learned that the landlord came to make trouble, then they were worried when they found out that there were loopholes in the lease contract that Lin Fan had signed, and finally they compared the income from Lin Fan's songs during this period with the initial investment in Longing for the Yard, and their anxiety after discovering that Lin Fan was indeed very short of money.
Then it was natural for fans to propose crowdfunding.
When this proposal was first made, fans naturally responded one after another, but they were immediately rejected. First, 13 million is not a small number, and it is impossible to raise so much money in a short period of time. Second, fans living in Xiangwang’s Courtyard expressed their willingness to help with crowdfunding to Lin Fan, but were rejected by Lin Fan.
The crowdfunding was shelved.
Wang Lingli was very skilled in these matters. Through a few chat records, she portrayed Lin Fan as an innocent poor guy who was cheated by an unscrupulous landlord. Although it did not reverse the negative comments all at once, it did help Lin Fan regain a lot of impression points.
At least, those black fans didn't label Lin Fan as a "money-making guy".
After Xia Yan finished reading the screenshots, he put his phone away. With Xia Jie and Entertainment Reporter Wang watching over the public opinion, nothing would go wrong. Now, all that was left was to deal with the landlord.
However, at this time, Xia Yan did not know that Lin Fan's second wave of counterattack had been effective.
Moreover, this result is quite good!
