"City of Light" is a workplace variety show launched by Tencent Video, which observes the work and life of working professionals.
This season, the production team has focused on the role of reporters.
During the program's preparation, He Qinqin, a guest scheduled to be recorded, suddenly became a trending topic on the entire internet.
The incident stemmed from a netizen's revelation that one of the guests on this season's recording, NNT reporter He Qinqin, grew up in the high-pressure environment of the Si family.
He Qinqin's adoptive mother, Si Jiuyin, has an extremely strong desire to control him and prevents him from having a free love relationship.
In order to get He Qinqin to compromise and accept the marriage, she kicked He Qinqin out of the house and let He Qinqin's best friend move in to annoy He Qinqin.
Si's Group is a nationally renowned enterprise with a consistently positive image.
This explosive news caused an uproar among netizens.
[What kind of year is this? Why are people still preventing others from freely choosing their partners?]
[A foster mother with no blood relation is unreliable; this is clearly an attempt to sell her daughter for a marriage alliance.]
[I heard the arranged marriage partners are all greasy, womanizing old men. Poor He Qinqin.]
[This best friend is so mean! She lives in someone else's house and steals their mother. Is she going to steal her reporter job next?]
He Qinqin and her boyfriend are a perfect match, both handsome and beautiful. Si Jiuyin, however, looks down on He Qinqin's boyfriend, feeling he has no use for her.
Some netizens posted a photo of He Qinqin and Shi Yao together.
As the original male and female leads, the two are indeed good-looking, which immediately made netizens who were passing by start shipping them as a couple.
The ill-fated couple was torn apart by their wicked stepmother, and then various classmates and friends came forward to say how sweet their campus romance was.
Righteous netizens immediately couldn't sit still and called for a trial!

Si Jiuyin and Li Han were subjected to a barrage of insults, and some people even called for a boycott of Si's products.
In an internet cafe in the old town.
Shi Yao and his cronies sat in a booth, watching the online discussions where everyone was insulting Si Jiuyin. He lit a cigarette.
The group of friends grumbled and cursed as they ate the cherries Shi Yao had brought.
"These rich people are all trash! They deserve to be cursed!"
"If spittle could drown a person, Si Jiuyin would be dead hundreds of times over."
Shi Yao puffed out a cigarette: "Brothers, you've worked hard. I brought steak and seafood. Tonight, we'll drink until we drop."
"Shi Yao, you're the best!"
“Someone as loyal as you, Si Jiuyin must be blind to look down on you.”
Shi Yao waved his hand, unlocked his phone with his index finger to reply to the message, and said, "Maybe the Si family owes me too much, and she feels guilty."
"Our post went viral really fast! It immediately went viral and became a trending topic."
"If the marketing press releases we usually issue could achieve this effect, we'd be making a fortune."
"This means even God is against Si Jiuyin! Justice is on Yue-ge's side!"
Shi Yao listened to their discussion, glanced down at his phone screen, smiled, and said nothing.

The following day, Li Han was suddenly called to her boss's office while at work.
Her boss asked her if she would like to participate in the recording of the workplace variety show "City of Light". The director was his friend and thought highly of Li Han.
Li Han immediately understood the program team's intention.
He Qinqin's revelations caused quite a stir online, giving "City of Light" a lot of exposure.
If I, the one who betrayed my best friend, were to participate in the same program as He Qinqin, the ratings would definitely explode.
The online revelations about He Qinqin make it obvious who was behind it.
Li Han had once heard He Qinqin mention that Shi Yao had a group of brothers who were professional online trolls.
Ha, these people are really despicable.
She and He Qinqin were from the same orphanage, yet they somehow became best friends.
That's outrageous.
Li Han told Si Jiuyin about the invitation from "City of Light".
Si Jiuyin asked Li Han, "What are your thoughts?"
Li Han's eyes were deep: "I want to accept the invitation to this variety show."
"The current public opinion is all based on rumors and speculation, and it's easy to make things worse by trying to explain it."
"They will be able to see the whole picture when the live broadcast starts."
"Netizens have sharp eyes; they will soon see who the bad guy is."
Upon hearing Li Han's reply, Si Jiuyin said firmly, "Go ahead, do what you want to do, I support you."
Li Han felt a warmth in her heart: "Thank you, Mom."
After hanging up the phone, Li Han was about to return to her workstation when she bumped into He Qinqin in the corridor.
He Qinqin looked smug as she sent a voice message: "Shi Yao, the show hasn't even started yet, but I already have 200,000 followers on Weibo, and they're all speaking up for me!"
He Qinqin put away her phone and saw Li Han. Her smile vanished. "Li Han, you coveted what didn't belong to you. Now you're paying the price, aren't you?"
Li Han thought this person had a problem with their thought process, so she turned around and left.
After Si Jiuyin visited the station that day, the leaders assigned her a top-notch reporter mentor, Cheng Man, who was known as Sister Man.
Sister Man is decisive and experienced. She's too busy studying to pay any attention to this woman right now.

A cold chain food factory on the outskirts of the city.
Si Jiuyin brought Li Han, who had just finished get off work, here.
723 convenience stores are one of the pillar industries of the Sishi Group.
In the TV series "Spark", He Qinqin eventually reports that the Si Group has major food safety hazards, and the party involved is the 723 convenience store brand of fast food.
