Chapter 16: Which kid always spreads rumors?
At this point, the commercials inserted into the Orange TV live broadcast program have lasted for more than an hour.
Countless people are speculating about what happened during the suspension period.
But as time passed and the official blockade was implemented, fewer and fewer people paid attention to it, and in the end only a few thousand people remained.
Normally, the popularity and attention on this matter should become less and less.
However, unexpectedly, public opinion on major platforms has become increasingly intense.
The more it is blocked, the more people discuss and forward it.
Initially, only four trending searches were withdrawn, but in the subsequent blockade, nearly 10 related trending searches were forcibly suppressed.
The official of the hot search APP is also a little helpless. If it continues like this, they will not be able to control it.
At the beginning, public opinion was still within a reasonable range and in the direction guided by public relations.
"The equipment for the live security awareness test is broken."
"During the live broadcast, the police officer being tested had diarrhea, so the program was suspended!"
Originally, this matter would not have caused panic if it had not been discussed normally, but the news was blocked.
I don't know which group started to spread this idea astray.
Some uninformed bloggers also took the opportunity to spread rumors in order to attract traffic and attention.
The discussion among netizens below also started to become outrageous.
"The testing police officer has acute appendicitis and was sent to the hospital. I heard he's still undergoing surgery!"
"Ah, why did I hear that the policeman liked to eat feces and ended up getting a stomachache from parasites?"
"No, no, that's completely false. It's obviously a rumor. Who the hell likes shit? My story is correct. It's said that the police officer liked to eat ox stomach hot pot and didn't like to add any seasoning. He just liked to drink pure water and ox stomach, so he got a stomach ulcer."
Someone in the audience rolled their eyes: "No filtering, no seasoning, just plain water and cow flatulence. What's the difference between this and eating shit?"
"..." The man was silent for a moment: "Maybe... everyone has their own preferences?"
"Who the hell likes to eat shit?"
“…”
The live broadcast room was suspended and officially blocked.
The discussion among netizens became more and more heated. Seeing that the situation was in complete chaos, some people began to spread rumors without any bottom line.
"You guys are talking pure bullshit, just listen to me!"
"I have a friend who is in my circle of friends. It's not convenient to expose the sock puppet within the system. The real situation is that the police entered a den of thieves during a live broadcast test, and they were directly arrested and even hung up and beaten by the criminals."
"That's fine, but they even force-fed him feces!"
"Ah! Is there such a thing?"
"That's right. I heard that he's the leader of the biggest underground evil force in Nanjiang. He's very ruthless."
"But that soldier was incredibly resilient. He swallowed all the manure without a word and managed to hold on to the intelligence without saying a single word."
"Fuck, these gangsters are going too far!"
"This isn't the end of it. The criminals even called and threatened Yao Yao Ling during the live broadcast!"
"Damn it, it's totally lawless!"
"I'm talking about those little things. Why block them for no apparent reason?"
"Fuck, the nature is so bad!"
"Those warriors who have silently sacrificed for Daxia have worked so hard (crying), I want to speak up for them!"
"Yes! We must speak up for them!"
“…”
Gradually, Orange TV, which should not have caused such a stir, sparked a wave of patriotic sentiment.
The heat gradually got out of control.
An ordinary topic directly caused a strong reaction and widespread attention at the social level.
If it was just an ordinary program or artist’s reputation being ruined, maybe we could just play it dead and ignore it.
The problem is, this is an official program on Orange TV.
As the official, popular belief.
Faced with such strong public opinion at the social level, pretending to be dead would probably cause panic among the people.
The leaders of the relevant departments at the top of Nanjiang also noticed this problem at the first time. Looking at all kinds of rumors flying around, they all fell silent.
This rumor is too outrageous.
The most important thing is that so many people still believe it.
An ordinary safety science program, but what was posted online was even more terrifying than a Mexican documentary.
The leaders really have no idea what to do and it’s really a headache.
Fortunately, the leader also knows that this is just a rumor.
The way to calm public opinion is simple, just let the Orange TV program team resume live broadcast.
After a phone call from the leader, the news quickly reached the program team.
…
At this moment, the Orange TV program crew is outside the director's room.
There was no one in the quiet corridor. Director Li Shengli held his phone and nodded in response to the constant voice on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, okay, I got it!"
"It will be restored immediately, leader, don't worry."
"Half an hour, no! Ten minutes. The live broadcast will definitely resume within ten minutes."
“…”
About two minutes later, Li Shengli walked into the director's room with a gloomy face.
Everyone inside asked with puzzled expressions.
"Director, what's going on?"
Li Shengli took a deep breath, looked at the man and responded.
"I'm under pressure from above and must resume live streaming within ten minutes."
"Otherwise, the Nanjiang Police Department and our propaganda department will all be punished."
After the words were spoken, the studio became visibly quieter.
Everyone originally thought that they were going to make a contribution and were very happy.
But these words were like a bucket of cold water poured on everyone.
They had no chance to refute or report the situation to their superiors at this time.
The reason is simple.
At present, they only have some scattered suspicions and no evidence.
It is impossible for the higher-ups to support them in continuing to act recklessly.
Li Shengli stood in the middle of the director's room and bowed slightly to everyone to apologize.
"I'm sorry everyone, I was impulsive this time."
"I also didn't expect that the umbrella behind them would have such great power."
"I'm so sorry."
"You should also know what you will face if you continue to investigate."
"I don't want to involve everyone."
"Please don't investigate this matter any further."
But when these words were spoken, the people below became excited instead.
Even Li Shengli, a second-tier policeman who was about to retire, decided to continue the investigation.
Why would these frontline fighters retreat?
What's more, the person above was once an industry benchmark.
Even after retiring from the Criminal Investigation Brigade to the second line, he served as the Minister of the Propaganda Department.
In Nanjiang Police Station, Li Shengli is still very influential.
And in the previous analysis, everyone has seen the ability of this big boss and has long been convinced by him.
At this time, someone in the crowd shouted loudly: "Minister Li, I am not afraid of death. I will investigate with you!"
"Yes, we are not afraid of death. Let's investigate together!"
"Minister Li, this is not your problem!"
"The more this happens, the more it proves that we've stepped on the enemy's tail."
"It also lets us know how terrifying the umbrella behind this gang is."
This time, someone changed the title.
Previously, it was not convenient to casually disclose police information on the show.
But now the live broadcast was paused, and people called out "Minister Li" to express their respect.
Li Shengli looked at the people below and nodded with some satisfaction.
It is an honor for Daxia to have such warriors in the future.
He said in a deep voice.
"Okay, let's check it out together!"
"But if we don't have this outfit, we won't be able to check, so the live broadcast still needs to be restored."
"Everyone should proceed as usual later, so as not to reveal the truth."
"Report, where is Su Tai?" Someone asked reluctantly, looking towards the toilet.
Everyone believed that the person was most likely the leader of the criminal gang behind the entire Nanjiang.
Therefore, they were somewhat reluctant to release Su Tai.
Li Shengli pondered for a moment and then said cruelly.
"put!"
