"Oh, the company hasn't made a single move?"
A cold glint appeared in Fang Yang's eyes. Since Professor Chen was attacked for standing up for Fang Yang, if the company didn't react at all, this would be a big problem!
"Why is there no reaction at all? When Chu Feng's fans first attacked your Weibo, the company organized your fans to fight back. After defeating them, at least a million people still attacked Yuewen Entertainment's website. They were severely criticized before they retreated. Finally, they vented their anger on Professor Chen's Weibo."
That's it?
A cold glint flashed in Fang Yang's eyes, giving off an aura of impending storm.
"How could that be? After repelling these people's attacks, the company sent a letter to Qingcheng Film and Television, demanding an explanation. Then, they explained the situation to the professors in the website's chat room and requested support! At the same time, they notified the entire internet, condemning Chu Feng for instructing his fans to attack the company's website and your Weibo without cause, and for defaming Professor Chen's personal reputation. Most importantly, the company reported this situation to the Cultural Bureau, demanding that Chu Feng's misconduct be severely punished!"
Fang Yang frowned deeply. "Do you think Chu Feng is crazy? What good does it do him to post this kind of Weibo in the middle of the night?"
"Uh, we don't know that yet."
"Okay, so what happened next?"
"Later, things got simple. When the older professors saw this situation, they didn't want to confront those mindless fans directly. They simply forwarded Professor Chen's article on their respective Weibo accounts and tagged the official media outlets of the Cultural Bureau, demanding that those responsible be held accountable for this phenomenon."
Fang Yang nodded. "Has Qingcheng Film and Television intervened?"
"Why didn't you come forward? Saying that your account was hacked is just empty talk for children. In the end, the Cultural Bureau put pressure on you, and Bole website banned Chu Feng's Weibo account. The official media came out to praise your 'Blue and White Porcelain' as a top-notch Chinese style song and called on the entire music industry to learn from you and create more good works."
Fang Yang was about to speak when he was interrupted by the phone in his hand. He saw that it was Yang Huajin calling. Before he could answer, he heard Yang Huajin say, "Xiao Yang, you know about Chu Feng's matter, right?"
"Yes, I'm listening to Mo Sang talk about it."
"That's right, the reason has been found out. Yesterday, Chu Feng released an album, which was said to be mainly based on the new generation of Chinese style songs, but it was a complete flop after its release. Netizens didn't buy it, saying that it was not even half as good as your 'Blue and White Porcelain', or even nonsensical!"
"Because the price was too high, even his fans didn't buy many, which made Chu Feng resentful. He drank a little last night and took the opportunity to act out. Moreover, Chu Feng is not very smart and often does some outrageous and shameful things. His reputation has already dropped a lot this year. With multiple factors combined, he did what happened last night."
Fang Yang chuckled, "I have a question. Why hasn't their company made any statement after what happened to Chu Feng? Instead, they've just let things develop. It can't be just Chu Feng's involvement, can it?"
Yang Huajin pondered for a while, "We still can't find out the exact reason for this. It's even possible that Chu Feng's account is controlled by the company. But this time, because it was purely fan behavior, after investigating all the accounts, we found that these people were all die-hard fans of Chu Feng. The company reporting it to the police won't yield good results. In the end, we can only report it to the Ministry of Culture, and the Ministry of Culture will permanently ban Chu Feng's account on the grounds of instigating fans to cause trouble. There's not much else we can do."
"Has Qingcheng Film and Television imposed any internal penalties on Chu Feng?"
"Currently, there has been no punishment, and even within Qingcheng Film and Television, there has been no comment."
"Understood. From now on, we will assign someone to keep an eye on any major moves by Qingcheng Film and Television. We will deal with them in the same way we dealt with Yuehai Media and Qingcheng Film and Television, to see just how powerful they really are."
"Xiao Yang, are you saying that all of this was done by Qingcheng Film and Television?"
"They did it 100%. By the way, Professor Chen was wronged because of me. Go to my office and get a painting to give to Professor Chen as a token of our gratitude for his help."
"Okay, as for the other professors who helped, I have expressed my gratitude on your behalf, as have the state media. You just need to focus on filming."
"Alright then, thanks Uncle Yang, I'm hanging up now."
Just as he put down the phone, Mo Sang leaned in and asked, "President Fang, are you saying that all of this was orchestrated by Qingcheng Film and Television?"
"Isn't it obvious? When an artist makes a mistake, the company is the first to step in and mitigate the impact. But have you seen any action from Qingcheng Film & Television from beginning to end?"
Mo Sang chuckled and said, "Using a Chu Feng who's about to fall to disgust you, I wonder what they're up to?"
"What's the big deal? It's just a power struggle between the capital behind the scenes."
"What a pity, Chu Feng became the victim behind it all."
"What's the big deal? It's just a different battlefield. If capital wants to promote someone like Chu Feng, as long as they throw money at it, any Chu Feng can rise to prominence. Besides, Chu Feng hasn't been completely blacklisted. By changing the venue and doing some live-streaming sales, they can still extract residual value."
Mo Sang shuddered. "Chu Feng has been abandoned just like that, and he still has hundreds of millions of fans!"
Fang Yang chuckled and said, "So what? Maybe more than half of them are zombie fans. Otherwise, why would the album have been such a flop? It's precisely because they have no value that the company would just throw them away like that."
Mo Sang clicked his tongue, "This is absolutely terrifying. Yuehai Media had just calmed down for a while when Qingcheng Films popped up again. Do you think this might be Yuehai Media's doing, trying to divert attention?"
"No matter the reason, the fox's tail will always be revealed."
Fang Yang quickly finished the last bit of food and wanted to rest. He had filmed several scenes in the morning and needed to rest as soon as possible, otherwise he wouldn't have any energy in the afternoon.
Just as he was about to get up and go back to the lounge, Zhou Xin walked over quickly. "Fang Yang, I just found out about what happened to you. Are you alright?"
Fang Yang laughed and said, "Do I look like someone in trouble? It's nothing serious, just a few clowns jumping out to disgust people. The company has already taken care of it."
Zhou Xin said angrily, "This Chu Feng is like a mad dog, biting people for no reason. He's disgusting."
Fang Yang comforted Zhou Xin, saying, "It's alright, go and get some rest. Don't let these things upset you. I believe most netizens are clear-headed. Companies like Qingcheng Film and Television, which have been going down the wrong path for too long, will eventually face retribution."
Zhou Xin said angrily, "I feel disgusted. People like this should have been driven out of the entertainment market long ago. They are a disgrace to artists."
"Alright, alright, go back and rest. Don't let these people affect the filming. Get some sleep, and everything will be fine!"
Fang Yang pushed Zhou Xin back to sleep. The matter had been resolved, and dwelling on it would only cause trouble for herself, which was really unnecessary.
