Chapter 20

Xie Yang slept until about three in the afternoon. After waking up, he did not rush to contact Hu Biao. Instead, he found a set of pajamas and took a comfortable bath in the bathroom. Then he walked downstairs to the kitchen while turning on his mobile phone.

After turning on the phone, Hu Biao called immediately.

No one knew what kind of mental torture he had gone through, but Hu Biao's tone on the phone sounded a little vague. He said, "Did I really get through? Or am I hallucinating?"

"I got through. It's not an illusion. Wait a moment." Xie Yang covered the receiver and asked the nanny who was preparing dinner in the kitchen for a bowl of noodles. Then he let go of the receiver and walked towards the dining room while saying, "Okay, tell me what's going on now."

Hu Biao instantly cheered up and said in one breath: "Public opinion has been fermenting for almost a day, and now everyone on Weibo is discussing your affairs. Anyway, you should contact your father and tell him to stop talking nonsense. Some media want to take advantage of the popularity and are planning to interview your father to ask him how you were sold. Mo Bin must have hired a lot of Internet trolls, and all kinds of rumors are flying around on Weibo. The situation is not favorable to you! And——"

"Stop." Xie Yang interrupted Hu Biao's incoherent speech, sat down at the dining table, and asked, "While I was sleeping, you didn't do anything in a hurry, did you?"

Hu Biao was really losing his temper, and he replied breathlessly, "No! I even asked Tong Jian, Ke Lan and the others to turn off their phones. Jie Yang, what are you planning? That Weibo post of yours targeted Mo Bin, and now all of Mo Bin's fans are scolding you!"

"I do have plans. Go call Huang Mo now and ask him if the recording of our meeting that day can be made public. If so, I will publish it directly on Weibo."

Hu Biao choked and said in disbelief: "Wait, recording? Did you record the meeting that day?"

"I've recorded it. Mo Bin is such a mean person. I have to keep some backup plans."

After a long silence, Hu Biao's excited voice was heard: "You told me you had a recording earlier. Your recording is great! Mo Bin recorded you, and you also recorded him. It's really the law of nature that will bring retribution. I'll contact Huang Mo right now, and we must release this recording!"

The call was hung up and Xie Yang raised his eyebrows.

Wait, what did Hu Biao just say? "Mo Bin recorded you, and you also recorded him"?

Mo Bin also recorded it? What did you record?

The nanny brought the prepared noodles over. Xie Yang came back to his senses, put down his phone, thanked her and took the noodles. He temporarily put aside his doubts, picked up the chopsticks and ate the noodles carefully and seriously. Then he picked up the phone again, registered a random Weibo account, logged in, and clicked on the popular list.

As expected, the announcement Mo Bin posted this morning was on the hot list. Coincidentally, the two Weibo posts below this announcement were the one he posted before going to bed and the one that revealed that he was sold to an old man. The three posts were arranged in order, which made it convenient for people to watch the show.

Xie Yang first clicked on Mo Bin’s announcement and quickly scanned the comments below.

I have to say that Mo Bin is very good at blurring the focus and shifting the blame. In the new announcement, Mo Bin, just as Hu Biao had said on the phone before, distorted the facts and lied that the root cause of the fallout between him and Ke Lan, Tong Jian, and even Wen Yi was actually because of the purchase of the song. He also said that it was because he did not agree to buy songs from outside that IUD's new album has not been released yet.

At the end of the announcement, Mo Bin also vaguely mentioned that originally there was still room for discussion among the old team members regarding the purchase of music, but after Jie Yang joined the group, the matter became unnegotiable.

In the comment section, fans who were brainwashed by the announcement all cried out for Mo Bin, "Brother, why are you so stupid?" "I feel sorry for you, what's the point of you insisting on the team spirit alone, those people are all bad people?" "Those people are so despicable, they want to ruin your IUD, and when they see that you won't compromise, they still slander you!" "Thank you for your persistence," "Jie Yang is really a troublemaker!" There are many comments like these, which make people feel jealous.

Xie Yang drank some water to soothe his teeth, then looked at the reactions of passers-by.

After several hours of fermentation, Mo Bin's announcement and the Internet trolls have successfully distorted the rhythm, and the focus of discussion among passers-by has shifted from "whether Mo Bin has found a buyer first and abandoned IUD" to "IUD buys songs". Mo Bin's character has changed from "hypocritical and heartless big brother" to "the only old captain who insists on the IUD team spirit and is despised by his teammates and endures humiliation and hardship", which is a 180-degree reversal.

Xie Yang found out that he was wrong. Mo Bin was not abandoned by the new company, but was highly valued by the new company. Public opinion could be reversed so quickly, Mo Bin’s new company must have hired a lot of internet trolls.

After learning about the content of the new announcement, Xie Yang went to look through the Weibo post that broke the news.

The revelation was made by an entertainment marketing account, which was posted more than an hour later than Mo Bin’s announcement. The leaked information included a screenshot of a private chat record, two surveillance videos and an audio recording.

There was nothing interesting in the screenshots of the private chat records. A person who claimed to be a former waiter in a restaurant told the marketing account that he accidentally heard Li Yang and his father arguing.

What really sparked widespread discussion were the two surveillance videos and audio recordings.

There are two surveillance videos. One shows Jie Yang and Jie Xiu entering the box one after another, and the other shows Jie Xiu and Hu Biao competing with each other in the corridor.

Xie Yang paused for a moment when he turned to this point, realizing that this was the key point. He deliberately turned up the volume of his phone before clicking on the recording button.

The recording was very short, with only two sentences. The first sentence was said by him, and it read, "The person inside is my father. He wants to sell me to an old man. ], the second sentence was Hu Biao’s question, which was [So what you said on the phone before was true? 】.

Xie Yang was really surprised this time.

It turns out this is what Mo Bin recorded. That time he and Hu Biao and others met was completely accidental. Mo Bin was able to record the audio quickly under that situation, which was really amazing.

He looked through the comments under this revelation.

The comment section was very harmonious, with everyone scolding him and spreading rumors about him. Among them, Mo Bin’s fans are responsible for scolding, the internet army hired by Mo Bin is responsible for spreading rumors, and passers-by are responsible for eating melons and spreading various rumors. Among all the rumors, two of them were discussed most hotly. One was that after he hooked up with a financial sponsor, he became carefree and did not want to stay in IUD any longer, so he deliberately messed up the new IUD's first appearance on "Hello Holiday" and provoked conflicts between the team members. Another was that it was suspected that the person who bought him was a senior executive of Wen Yi.

Finally, Xie Yang went to take a look at the comment section on his Weibo.

Probably because he tagged Mo Bin, the hot comments were basically all occupied by Mo Bin's fans. Some questioned why he tagged Mo Bin when his sins were exposed, some told him to get out of the entertainment industry, some told him not to "sleep away", and some asked him sarcastically why he slept during the day... In short, the content was very trivial and there was nothing to pay attention to.

In addition to these, Xie Yang also found a topic #谢扬滚出娱乐圈# in the hot searches. When he clicked on the topic, he found a marketing account that posted a video of the original owner’s performance in a professional course exam when she was a freshman. In the comments below, Mo Bin’s fans mocked the original owner’s stiff performance in the video, sarcastically saying that it was no wonder that the original owner had to wear an IUD to sing, because it turned out that his acting skills were too bad.

It seems that this is all Mo Bin could come up with after exhausting all his resources and spending almost a day.

Xie Yang put down his phone and began to think seriously. The original owner's exam video should be considered the student's personal privacy. Is it illegal for the school to leak it like this?

Hu Biao's call interrupted his thoughts.

"Jie Yang, Huang Mo said that the recording can be released, but it must be edited first. Send me the complete version of the recording and I will edit it right away. The sooner we edit it, the sooner we can release it. In addition, Mo Bin just contacted Ke Lan through an intermediary and said that it is not too late to put all the blame for the breakup on you. He also said that for the sake of our years of relationship, he wants to stop the public opinion here."

Xie Yang sneered: "He has a nice idea."

Hu Biao said coldly: "I think so too."

They both laughed, and Xie Yang said, "I'll send you the recording on WeChat, please edit it as soon as possible."

"good."

After sending the recording to Hu Biao, Xie Yang snapped his fingers and switched to his own Weibo account in a good mood. He ignored the tens of thousands of message alerts that popped up in an instant and wrote his Weibo post slowly.

【Jie Yang: Wake up.】 Mo Bin, regarding what you just said to Ke Lan, I want to say to you, wake up, you can’t dream anymore until dark. 】

[Jie Yang: I saw someone asked me why I mentioned Mo Bin before, so let’s sort it out now. From the surveillance footage, we can see that there were only five of us in the corridor at that time: me, Hu Biao, Mo Bin, Ke Lan, and Tong Jian. Among them, Mo Bin, Ke Lan, and Tong Jian were still in the box. So the question is, considering that Ke Lan and Tong Jian are my current teammates, and Hu Biao is my current agent, and they have no reason to harm me, who recorded and exposed that recording? 】

[Jie Yang: There is also the matter of my father selling me. Yes, my father sold me to a tall, handsome and rich second-generation rich man for 500 million. Are you jealous? 】

[Jie Yang: @Mo Bin, you have the recording, and I do too. Think carefully about what you said during the meeting that day. Were you panicked? 】

Less than five minutes after the Weibo post was published, Hu Biao called again, and his tone was very relieved: "Mo Bin contacted me directly and asked to settle privately."

Xie Yang smiled and said, "Privately, that's fine. If he is willing to publicly apologize to me on Weibo, I will agree to settle it privately with him."

"..." Hu Biao wanted to laugh, "You know he won't agree."

Xie Yang pretended to be regretful: "Then I can only thank him for his enthusiasm in sending me the attention. Let me inform everyone that I will announce that the IUD 5th Anniversary Concert will be held as scheduled."

Half an hour later. On Weibo, almost at the same time.

Ke Lan: Only by keeping your original intention in mind can you achieve your goal. See you at the fifth anniversary performance, where we will present the song "IUD".

Tong Jian: I have a new song coming, IUD is not over yet, see you at the fifth anniversary performance!

Xu Chenhao: See you at the IUD fifth anniversary performance.

Hu Biao: Let’s work harder for our original aspirations! IUD departure! @Ke Lan@Xu Chenhao@Tong Jian@Jie Yang

Xie Yang also posted a Weibo.

[Jie Yang: See you then.] 】

There are two links below, one is the link to grab tickets for the performance, and the other is the link to the recording edited by Hu Biao and with subtitles.

Weibo seemed to be quiet for a few seconds, and then the entire IUD fan circle began to shake.
