Chapter 113
"Shen Yan, you're back in China?" Li Li's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Brother, can you help me find out what's going on with those videos of Yu Yingning?" Shen Yan asked anxiously.
"video?"
"Yes, those are the videos that edited together her and the male guest's commentary." Shen Yan said, wanting Li Li to help him contact some entertainment bloggers to see if they could get rid of the videos.
"Are you talking about the videos from Quan Xiaoxiao Entertainment?"
"It seems to be this name." Shen Yan snatched Wu Xiao's phone again and glanced at the blogger's name on it.
"No need to investigate," Li Li said directly.
"Why?"
“Because I was the one who contacted them and asked them to release those videos,” Li Li said.
Shen Yan's hand tightened around his phone, his eyes filled with disbelief as he questioned:
Why...why did you do that?
"Because you and Yu Yingning need to untie."
"The best way is through public opinion on the internet, and now we can say that we've pretty much completely broken free."
"But even if we want to untie them!"
"There's no need to do something like this!"
Upon hearing Li Li's words, Shen Yan's mind almost went blank.
He never expected the studio to use this method to unbind him.
This method involves smearing her to shape him, and even to pave his way in the entertainment industry.
Shen Yan was unwilling at all.
However, Li Li only did what an agent should do.
"Chen Yan, you were the one who wanted to untie yourself!"
"Look at your public image before, and then look at your current situation."
"Your popularity has gradually increased quite a bit, and you can release a new song next month." Li Li continued to arrange the work in an orderly manner.
“Brother Li, I don’t need that method!” Shen Yan said directly.
"Tell those bloggers to delete the videos."
"Chen Yan, do you think you can do whatever you want?"
"Even if those videos are deleted, how long do you think it will take for the hype to die down?!" Li Li really couldn't understand Shen Yan. He was the one who said he wanted to break off the relationship, and now he's the one saying he wants to delete the videos.
When will he be able to consider things more comprehensively?
"I will enter the entertainment industry through my own abilities, not by stepping on Yu Yingning!"
What will she think of me?
"I really don't need this method."
"Chen Yan, do you think your approach can salvage anything?"
Li Li knew that once something happened online, it was impossible to completely erase the traces.
"No matter what, those videos and negative comments must be dealt with as soon as possible." Shen Yan's mind raced instantly.
"Chen Yan! You..."
"Brother Li, I'm the one who pays your salary."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yan dialed another number.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable..."
Shen Yan picked up Wu Xiao's phone and dialed the number again.
"Hello."
It was a clear and familiar female voice.
Shen Yan did not speak immediately, but remained silent.
"Who is this?" the voice on the other end of the microphone came again.
Shen Yan paused for a moment before speaking, then said, "It's me, Shen Yan."
The voice on the other end immediately disappeared, but the call was not disconnected.
"How have you been these past few days?" Shen Yan could only ask.
"I'm fine. What's up?"
"I... am the one in those videos online..." Shen Yan hesitated before speaking, wanting to say that he would take care of the video matter in the next few days.
"Yes, I saw those videos," her voice came through.
"Those videos will be fine in a few days," Shen Yan said weakly.
"Ignore it?" She smiled gently.
"How can I ignore it? I'm a social media celebrity now."
"That's quite interesting. I wonder who's trying to do this to me." Her tone seemed somewhat defiant.
It's easy to imagine that the online abuse she's received these past few days has been so intense that even Shen Yan couldn't suppress his anger upon seeing some of the comments.
Moreover, these negative comments are all directed at her personally.
Is there anything I can help you with?
"If not, I'll hang up."
She didn't want to say another word to me.
Shen Yan mustered his courage and was about to speak: "Actually, those videos..."
He was speaking when he heard the other party hang up the phone.
Shen Yan wanted to call again, but suddenly lost the courage.
How should he begin?
Are you saying those videos were actually produced by your own studio?
It has nothing to do with me?
He himself didn't believe these words.
How could she possibly believe herself?
The only solution right now is for the studio to resolve the issue with the video and reduce the public's interest.
"Wu Xiao, do me a favor." Shen Yan suddenly spoke to Wu Xiao, who was squatting on the ground watching ants.
"I won't do murder or arson," Wu Xiao shrugged.
"Go to H City and find Yu Yingning for me."
Those malicious netizens on the internet have even doxxed Yingning's approximate place of residence.
Shen Yan is in a hurry to go to the studio to find Li Li to resolve this matter, and he really can't get away to go to H City right now.
"Brother Yan, I have something to do tomorrow."
"My dad wants me to meet with a branch manager of the K Group tomorrow."
It wasn't that Wu Xiao didn't want to help, but the person in charge was arriving tonight, and he had to pick him up from the airport.
I have a schedule arranged for the other party tomorrow morning.
"When will you be done?" Shen Yan asked.
"Tomorrow noon...or afternoon," Wu Xiao said, giving a rough estimate.
"Then go to H City after that person in charge leaves." Shen Yan said this and immediately left quickly.
Judging from his appearance, Wu Xiao didn't seem to want to go home.
It seems like they're going to the studio.
"Hey...hey...!" Wu Xiao wanted to ask Shen Yan what was wrong.
But they only caught a glimpse of Shen Yan's back.
Shen Yan is truly a man of great energy and decisiveness.
[Going to H City is fine too; he can go see what Yu Yingning looks like in person.]
*
When He Zhiqian arrived, Ying Ning had just returned to the hotel.
"Why are you here?"
"I asked the assistant director, and it seems you haven't returned to H City yet." He Zhiqian got up from the sofa in the lobby.
He received a message from Song Song while he was not in S City.
It was said that someone was now doxxing Yu Yingning's address, and Song Song felt somewhat guilty, so he arranged a hotel for her in S City so that she could temporarily avoid the limelight.
"Yes, I need to rest in S City for a while."
Yingning was telling the truth. The negative comments on the internet are getting worse and worse, and some people hiding on the internet have dug up some real information.
It's actually the best thing for her not to go back to H city now.
"Which room are you staying in?" He Zhiqian asked.
"8402, what's wrong?"
"It's alright, I also need to check in." After getting the information he wanted, He Zhiqian immediately went to book a room near 8402.
"Aren't you going home?" Yingning walked to his side and saw him go to the front desk and take out his ID card.
"Changing my residence is like taking a vacation."
After He Zhiqian put his luggage away, he knocked on the door of room 8402.
He walked into the room and asked directly, "Do you know who released those videos?"
Yingning shook her head, pretending not to know: "I don't know."
"Perhaps it was maliciously edited by netizens."
"It's Shen Yan."
"Chen Yan?"
Why did he do that?
Her pupils dilated, as if she didn't want to believe his words.
"Yes, he's planning to use you to gain popularity. You probably don't know, but he's planning to enter the entertainment industry later." He Zhiqian told Yingning about everything that happened before and after Shen Yan participated in the dating reality show.
After He Zhiqian finished speaking, he noticed that her eyes gradually dimmed.
"Is that the reason?"
"That's why they deliberately released that kind of video."
She gave a faint, cold laugh, and even the usually alluring little mole lost its luster.
"I really didn't expect Shen Yan to be this kind of person."
"That's how this circle is. They use online public opinion to create hype and achieve their own goals. As for the impact on others, those people don't care."
"I will delete those videos."
Don't worry about it.
"He Zhiqian, do you also use hype?" she said out of the blue, which surprised He Zhiqian.
One of the projects he was in charge of was "The Mystery of Love".
To say that there's no hype would be a lie.
In this circle, who wouldn't use the internet to achieve their own goals?
He paused for a moment, then spoke.
"They know how to create hype."
"But I won't hurt you."
*
The next day, He Zhiqian took Yingning to a racetrack under the pretext of relaxing.
"It's a members-only place here, no other people will come in."
He Zhiqian was afraid she would worry, so he spoke very patiently.
On the other side, Wu Xiao was smiling obsequiously at the head of K Group: "Director Meng, please, please."
Then, turning around, he saw the profile of the woman who brushed past him.
Her phoenix eyes were indifferent, with a slight curve at the corner, and a small mole at the end of her eye.
A sudden surge of familiarity enveloped Wu Xiao's chest.
This person looks so familiar.
Wu Xiao scanned the list of people he knew, but still couldn't place the person.
Until he saw He Zhiqian, dressed casually, next to her.
[He Zhiqian?]
It wasn't that Wu Xiao had any interaction with He Zhiqian on a regular basis, but rather that last year, his grandfather had dragged him to a private banquet. Just as the banquet began, He Zhiqian came down from the main house upstairs.
His father even whispered in his ear that this was the president of the He Group.
He then remembered it.
Wu Xiao immediately realized who the familiar woman was.
He immediately dialed Shen Yan's number.
