Chapter 116 Public Opinion Manipulation



In the afternoon, a video titled "A handsome man and a beautiful woman saving someone with their bare hands" became popular on the Internet. It was constantly forwarded and commented on, until the official short video platform pushed it during dinner, and it immediately became an Internet hit.

"Isn't this some kind of hype for a movie? But rescue-themed movies and TV shows are really my thing."

"It doesn't look like it. The camera is so shaky. If it's a promotional video for a movie or TV series, it should be much clearer."

"The above person has very little knowledge. Nowadays, any method can be used to hype things up. This kind of thing that makes it look real is more likely to be hyped up."

"Why do I feel that the beautiful woman in the picture looks familiar?"

"That's a celebrity named Yan Zi. He's released several good songs."

"Is it a celebrity? That's a confirmed hype. I thought it was real, but it turned out to be hype."

"What's wrong with hype? So much of what's on short video platforms is staged, and you guys still enjoy watching it. As long as she's spreading positive energy, that's fine. Even if it's hype, it's better than those people just dancing and singing a few songs, right?"

Netizens on the Internet began to hold different opinions. Some believed that such hype was extremely shameless, while others believed that as long as it was to promote good things, there was no problem even if it was a performance or hype.

But few people believe that it is a true event.

Even if the person who posted the video later came out and swore that this was his personal experience and definitely not some film or TV drama, it still didn't have much effect.

In the evening, after a day's drive, everyone arrived at the hotel they had booked long ago to rest. This was a small town at the foot of Erjing Mountain, and the conditions were limited, so everyone squeezed in and made do.

Sister Chen, Xu Linling and Yan Zi were assigned to the same room.

When Sister Chen came out of the shower, she found that two girls, who were considered little girls to her, were staring at the front of her.

"What are you looking at? You two?"

"Oh, no wonder they say men like mature women."

"Hey, it seems the term LSP actually applies to both men and women."

"You two..." Sister Chen hit them with a towel and said, "Hurry up, whoever's the one washing up should wash up and go to bed early."

Just as she finished speaking, the phone in her bag rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Du Ming, the director of the company's external publicity department. He used to be a fence-sitter, but now he has completely stood on Xu Linling's side.

"Minister Du, what's going on so late?"

"There's a video online right now about Yan Zi. It's already caused a huge social impact. Haven't you seen it yet?"

"No, I've been driving all day. I'll check right away."

"Okay, if you've finished reading this and need any cooperation from our external publicity department, just let me know."

Sister Chen hung up the phone. Xu Linling and Yan Zi also heard it and came over curiously.

Sister Chen took out her tablet and logged into the short video platform, directly entering the word "Yan Zi" as the keyword.

There are many videos below, and the first one is the video of rescuing people in the afternoon.

After reading through the comments, Xu Linling said indignantly, "Humph, it was Yan Zi and Feng Xiaoyun who clearly risked their lives to save people, but how come these people are calling it hype?"

Sister Chen was very calm: "It can't be helped. No one can see things from a God's perspective. Especially since most people actually see more of what they want to see."

"Because they don't believe that a star would do such a thing without regard for his own safety, they choose to believe it's hype."

Having been in the entertainment industry for so long, Sister Chen has dealt with all kinds of news, both true and false. In her opinion, such things are nothing out of the ordinary.

"But, but we can't let Yan Zi and Feng Xiaoyun be wronged like this, right?" Xu Linling still felt sorry for the two of them.

"Of course not. This kind of thing can't be fake, and fake can't be real. I'll ask Minister Du to announce the itinerary of the drama troupe we're following, explaining that we really encountered the emergency on the way to the performance."

"This will not only clarify the truth of the matter, but also publicize Yan Zi's performance to show his support."

"Then the company will issue a statement, stating that Yan Zi has not recently accepted any film or TV series of this nature. Wait two or three days, and the truth of the incident will slowly be revealed."

After all, it's too late now, and this is the best solution Sister Chen can find.

On the other side, Feng Xiaoyun also got the news. He said hello to his roommate, Teacher Chen Fei, and went downstairs with the phone.

"Secretary Wang, please handle this matter." Feng Xiaoyun still called Wang Defa Secretary Wang and told him the matter again.

Secretary Wang is now on call 24 hours a day to help him solve problems. Not only is his working hours free, but if he wants to work overtime after get off work like he does now, the overtime pay is shockingly high.

So he was absolutely willing for Feng Xiaoyun to look for him, but he was afraid that one day Feng Xiaoyun would stop looking for him, and then his special investment planning department would have no meaning to exist.

"Okay, ten minutes. Let's have a conference call and give you an answer in ten minutes. Is that okay with you?"

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Feng Xiaoyun looked up at the sky. It had rained in the afternoon, and now there was not a single cloud in the mountain sky. Looking at the starry sky that was not seen in the city, he thought of Yan Zi following him to save people during the day, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Soon Wang Defa called.

"Xiaoyun, we think this problem can be solved from three directions." Feng Xiaoyun insisted on this title. Wang Defa felt that it could bring him and Feng Xiaoyun closer, so he agreed. However, in the department, they were still used to calling Feng Xiaoyun "Young Master" in private.
