The fan leaders panicked and ran to Lian Yanyan to cause trouble: "You were the one who encouraged us to curse Shi Lingtong online, and you said that lawyer's letters were no big deal, but you can't abandon us now!"
"Sister Lian, please think of something! You have to save us!"
"If my parents find out I've received a court summons because of my obsession with celebrities, they'll beat me to death! Sister Lian, you have to help me! If you don't, you won't have a good time either!"
"You're Shi Lingtong's manager, why didn't you stop her?"
"Waaaaah... It's just some online insults, right? When I was following other celebrities, I insulted their rivals, photoshopped their portraits, and cursed them to die, and they didn't say anything. Why is Shi Lingtong so fixated on this?"
Lian Yanyan feigned concern and tried to appease them, subtly dragging Tong Su into the mess:
"Sigh, this is all commonplace. I don't know why Shi Lingtong is making such a fuss. I've told her before, if she's so sensitive, what kind of celebrity is she... but she won't listen. I've lost control of her for a long time. And this time with Li Chenyun, I don't even know where she found her lawyer."
"It's all Shi Lingtong's fault! I hate her so much!"
The fan leaders grew increasingly resentful, but some were still timid, sobbing and crying, "Then, what should we do? I... I'm scared. Can I apologize? I'll apologize and ask them not to sue me..."
Lian Yanyan used all her strength to stop herself from cursing out loud. She tried to control the sarcasm in her words: "You think an apology can erase everything? Do you think the court is so easy to fool? Alright, I'll talk to the company about this. You guys go back and wait."
The fan leaders were helpless and could only leave amidst cursing and tears.
"It's alright, don't be scared. This is just a warning. It's not a big deal. There won't be any serious consequences..." Lian Yanyan tried to calm herself down. After she managed to calm herself down, she started contacting the company leaders and humbly asked the company for help to suppress the public opinion.
The company was extremely dissatisfied with everything she had done, but considering the various impacts, they relented. Lian Yan breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly contacted an online marketing company, hoping to stir up the online atmosphere and divert netizens' attention from Lawyer Li.
How can a nobody like a celebrity afford lawyer Li Chenyun?
The comments section was filled with veiled criticisms implying that Shi Lingtong was clinging to powerful figures and had a sugar daddy supporting her.
"During her relationship with Gu Yao, Shi Lingtong met with mysterious figures multiple times. Was there another reason for her breakup with Gu Yao?"
Coupled with several blurry photos that made it impossible to identify who it was, the online trolls stirred up trouble online, making it seem as if Shi Lingtong had cheated first.
"Shi Lingtong's stunning beauty turns out to be fake; photos of her after surgery allegedly leaked from a hospital in Country H!"
The accompanying photo, which was blurred out and resembled a swollen pig's head, was wrapped in blood-soaked gauze. The photographer asserted that the image was indeed Shi Lingtong.
However, just as the online trolls were starting to build momentum, a sudden news item shocked her so much that she turned pale!
—An inspection team from a certain broadcasting department published an article warning that online media had failed to control the correct direction of public opinion, instructed online trolls to influence the overall public opinion environment, and engaged in excessive entertainment consumption.
"Weibo ordered to rectify within a time limit? Clear all false data? A large number of marketing accounts were blocked? The head of the online marketing company was also summoned for questioning?!"
Lian Yan Yan felt a sense of suffocation.
"Mr. Liu, what should we do? Won't all the posts and articles from online trolls and marketing accounts be deleted? The public opinion I just directed to create is going to be ruined! Is there any way to make an exception—"
General Manager Liu glared at her angrily: "Make an exception? You wish! Do you even know who's in charge of the inspection team's affairs?"
