After hearing the host's assurance, Wen Ying became obviously hesitant.
"Will it really be cut off?"
"Of course! Unless you give us your permission to broadcast it."
The host vowed.
When seeing Wen Ying's clear eyes, the host turned slightly to avoid Wen Ying's sight.
Oh, silly girl!
——Your agent has betrayed you. Whether you agree or not, this interview will be broadcast eventually. How can a little girl like you defeat such a cunning agent?
Even if this part was cut out when the show was broadcast, everyone in the production crew heard Wen Ying tell the truth. Even if the public didn't know, it would spread throughout the circle!
For Wen Ying, telling the truth while recording the show will do more harm than good to herself!
This is a pitfall.
From the casual chat before the recording, we have already been playing the trap!
The host knew that he was also Yuan Fenghui's "accomplice".
But there is no way.
This circle, or adult society, is like this!
Agents want their artists to attract more attention, hosts have to maintain their talk show ratings, and even the entire production team, from producers and directors to the most humble script supervisor, has to make a living.
The success of the program affects the livelihoods of a large number of people. The host cannot show sympathy indiscriminately. She persuades herself: if this little girl falls a few more times and gets cheated a few more times, she will be able to do well in this circle slowly!
The host looked Wen Ying in the eye again: "Xiao Yu, you can trust me."
Wen Ying: To be honest, sometimes I don’t even believe in myself!
"So I really said that?"
"Come on, just treat it as a casual chat. This matter has been weighing on your mind for a long time, right?"
The host changed to a more comfortable sitting position, and used body movements to hint to Wen Ying that this was really just a casual chat.
That's bullshit.
If you're just chatting, you shouldn't turn on the video!
Wen Ying hesitated for a while and finally nodded.
"I've known the owner of 'Si Lan' and his sister for quite a while. The owner of 'Si Lan' had previously wanted to develop a cultural tourism industry in Chengdu and had even published an autobiography. We met by chance."
The host nodded. "There's definitely some overlap between cultural tourism bosses and novelists. You've met the boss's siblings. Are you on good terms with them?"
Wen Ying shook her head, "Not very good."
—I asked you to tell the truth, and you actually did. Are you stupid?!
The producer of the program almost laughed out loud: If every interviewee was as honest as Wen Ying, there would be no need to worry about the ratings!
The host sighed secretly, "You guys really have a personal grudge?"
Unexpectedly, Wen Ying denied it: "Rather than a personal grudge, it's better to say it's a conflict of values. I personally don't like some of their values, so we didn't become close friends."
Different values.
That's a good way of putting it.
As the "Slan Rights Protection Incident" intensified, many people knew that the boss of "Slan" was a foreign Chinese.
The other person grew up abroad, while Wen Ying was a native Chinese. It would be strange if they had exactly the same values!
The host felt that Wen Ying was not completely stupid.
Of course, the host wasn't going to let Wen Ying off so easily: "If you're not close friends, why would the boss's sister come to the school and block your way? I heard a lot of people were there, and the boss's sister begged you to spare her business. Is that true?"
"That's true... To be honest, I thought she was mentally ill. The fundamental reason why 'Slan' fell into crisis was that their product safety standards did not meet the standards. It was an internal problem. The normal process should be to immediately recall the problematic products, destroy them, apologize and compensate the affected consumers, and then re-develop the product formula after receiving the victims' forgiveness, right?"
Wen Ying looked distressed, as if she still couldn't figure out what Zhao Qian was going crazy about.
The host nodded in agreement with Wen Ying's words, "Normally, that's how it should be."
"But they didn't do that. 'Slan' ignored consumer complaints. They didn't care about the harm their products caused to consumers, allowing problematic products to continue to circulate in the market, wasting money on suppressing consumers' voices for rights protection. Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"
Wen Ying turned to the host for help, but the host didn't know what to say for a moment.
Why didn't 'Slan' follow normal procedures to handle rights protection incidents?
Of course, it’s because following the normal process will harm the company’s interests!
Under the circumstances at that time, if 'Slan' recalled the products circulating on the market, it would be an admission that there were safety issues with 'Slan' products!
'Slan' is a new brand. It has not cultivated particularly loyal consumers, nor does it have the foundation to face such a desperate situation!
Not to mention a new brand like "Slan", even a dairy brand with a longer history and larger scale than "Slan" and a leading position in the industry will collapse if faced with such a crisis.
Food safety, drug safety... these are the bottom lines that relevant companies cannot touch!
"So, your reposting of the victimized consumer's rights defense post on your blog was purely because you couldn't stand Silan's behavior. Was it really due to the 'self-restraint' you mentioned earlier, and not out of personal vendetta?"
The host confirmed with Wen Ying again, and she nodded vigorously. "I have a clear conscience about what I did. I saw someone I knew defending their rights, so I chose to help spread the message. But the Silan boss and his sister didn't see it that way. They thought I was taking revenge. Now that I think about it, they actually knew what was going on and just came to me to divert public attention."
