Chapter 131 (3+4 updates)



[??? Was the program team's account hacked?]

[Suddenly confused... What kind of operation is this...]

[Program team, if your account has been hacked, please do not post updates for the next minute.]

This netizen had just made this comment when the official Star Blog of the program "There's No Overnight Grudges in the Family" updated another post.

This time, it was a clearer apology.

[Family members do not hold grudges overnight Official Starlight Blog:

To Ms. Chao Chao, the viewers of "No Overnight Grudges in Family," and all the public who are concerned about this matter:

In the latest two episodes of the program, due to the lack of careful assessment of the information provided by the guests in the early stages, some false information provided was not identified, and wrong judgments were made, which caused a bad public opinion impact.

As the producers of the program "No Overnight Grudges in Family," we deeply recognize our mistake and the negative impact it has caused. We hereby offer our sincerest apologies to the individuals and the public affected by this incident.

After the official release of this Starlight Blog post by "There's No Overnight Grudge in Family", the marketing accounts that were still fanning the flames and the haters who were still jumping up and down were all silenced in an instant.

Soon after Yan Chaochao's agency issued a public statement, announcing that they were collecting evidence and would prosecute any groups and individuals who fabricated and defamed Yan Chaochao's reputation, the marketing account deleted the Xingguang Blog overnight. Soon, many highly viewed and popular content under many entries related to the incident were rapidly deleted.

The deletion of marketing accounts has never been so quick!

While deleting the content, some marketing accounts felt a little regretful. When they posted these contents, why didn’t they think that Yan Chaochao’s economic team and the company behind him would really sue people!

For a time, countless marketing accounts that published negative news about Yan Chaozhao were terrified, fearing that they would receive a summons from the court as soon as they opened their eyes.

While the haters were feeling frustrated and the marketing accounts were deleting content, the audience who had originally maintained a neutral attitude quickly discovered something was wrong from this nearly 180-degree turn in attitude.

So what the production team is saying is... you were just "careless" and "imprudent," and the core reason was that the other party "fabricated information" and was "too cunning," which led to this result?

Although many people think that "No Overnight Hatred in Family" is responsible, from the statement released, I only saw two big words -

Pass the buck! 】

I'm truly convinced. I honestly trusted your production team before, thinking that with your abilities, you'd have thoroughly investigated everything before even letting anyone on the show. I never imagined such a huge mistake would happen! And you had to wait until public opinion had fermented before speaking out!

Why do you think the production team is issuing a statement now? Because the new episode is airing tonight! They're trying to attract more viewers!

[Ugh—I'm really about to vomit. This statement is so naive.]

[This is so tragic...Yan Chaochao is so miserable...How unlucky must she be to have encountered such a thing?]

[If it were anyone else, it would be fine, but Yan Chaochao has even been on the show with her family, so how could something so outrageous happen?]

@Family No Overnight Hatred Official Starlight Blog, I'm suddenly starting to wonder, is this really the only time you've made a mistake? Or are you just forced to admit it because so many people are paying attention this time?

Although the program team released two statements in succession, the timing of the release and the specific wording still attracted many questions from netizens.

Faced with the program team's attempt to shift the blame, countless netizens who were watching the show did not completely buy it.

Neutral netizens are only questioning the program team, but netizens who originally supported Yan Chaochao were almost furious after these two consecutive statements were issued!

Driven by such anger, many netizens who supported Yan Chaochao quickly released the doubts they had discovered.

I felt very strange when watching the show. When the host asked the middle-aged couple about their daughter's age, they were visibly stunned for a moment, and even looked at each other before hesitating to answer (Screenshot 1) (Screenshot 2)

How could a couple who truly care about their daughter take so long to answer such a simple question?]

This couple keeps saying they want to see their daughter, but Yan Chaochao is a debut artist, and her agency can be found. If they really want to see her, after all these years, is there really no chance at all?

[I wonder how many people still remember that Yan Chaochao said during the live broadcast that she grew up with her grandmother... If this couple never appeared, then it would be normal for Yan Chaochao to have no feelings for them, right?]

Many people like to mix up the relationship between Yan Chaochao and the Yan family and the relationship between Yan Chaochao and the middle-aged couple. However, looking back now, the middle-aged couple's words only prove that they are lying (spreading their hands)

[I saw someone speculate before that Yan Chaochao might have some kind of deal with the Yan family... I was completely stunned at the time. Are you looking down on the Yan Group, or on Yan Chaochao, or both?]

In this storm, there are a lot of absurd and unrestrained speculations that have been spread with details and evidence.

It may seem scary at first, but if you think about it carefully, you will see how unreliable it is.

Seeing that the situation on the Internet was turning in Xiang Yan Chaozhao's favor, Cheng Aotian slammed the table in the dark room.

“Damn it!”

But at this moment, Cheng Aotian's spare mobile phone on the table rang without any hesitation.

Cheng Aotian answered the call with a serious face and turned on the voice changer.

A panicked voice immediately came from the other side: "What should we do? The production team found out about our fake stuff. Now they not only won't pay us, but they also want us to compensate for their losses! You have to help us..."

Cheng Aotian's voice came through the voice changer, and it was extremely cold: "This is the result of your carelessness. What does it have to do with me?"

"We did this because we listened to you and thought it would make money!" The voice on the other end of the phone became sharper with anxiety and fear.

"I didn't ask you to fabricate evidence." Cheng Aotian sneered, "Do you have any evidence?"

When communicating with the couple, Cheng Aotian was very careful. As long as it was an important matter, he would not leave any written records to avoid getting into trouble in the end.

After hearing Cheng Aotian's words, the other party became even more furious.

"Whatever! We agreed to be on the show because you said there was money to be made! Now that the production team won't give us the money, you have to give it to us!"

Listening to the crazy thoughts of the person on the other end, Cheng Aotian no longer wanted to pay any attention to him and hung up the phone directly.

After the call was disconnected, Cheng Aotian's expression suddenly darkened: "Useless guy!"

He raised his foot and kicked the leg of the table in front of him fiercely.

The inspiration for Cheng Aotian to find the production team of "No Overnight Grudges in Family" came from a story he saw before his rebirth.

A few years after Cheng Aotian debuted, there was another contestant who also participated in the talent show. During the competition, his mother went on the show and said that her son was rebellious, did not study well, and tinkered with messy things all day long. He recently ran away from home and beat her at home.

Although the mother's words were later confirmed, including most of the "beating her" statement, were pure fabrication.

Throughout the entire show, except for the true mother-son relationship between this mother and the contestant, everything else is nonsense. It's just that this mother couldn't stand her son singing and dancing, and felt that this was not the "right way" at all, and wanted him to "repent and return to the right path", so she did these things.

Even so, this program caused this contestant, who had a great chance of debuting, not only to miss the debut position, but also for a long time, even though the matter had been clarified, he was still surrounded by labels such as "unfilial", "selfish", and "ungrateful".

When Cheng Aotian saw this incident, he just thought that this person was unlucky.

It was not until this time that he thought that perhaps the same method would be effective for more than just that one player.

But Cheng Aotian never expected that the couple was so useless!

Thinking of this, Cheng Aotian gritted his teeth in hatred.

What a pity...

Even this didn't make Yan Chaochao fall down.

Cheng Aotian's eyes fell on his spare phone and his gaze suddenly narrowed.

no!

Such obvious evidence cannot be left here!

Five minutes later, at the second-hand mobile phone market, a figure wearing a mask and dressed in black walked to the counter and slowly pushed out a mobile phone.

"Do you accept second-hand mobile phones?"

The voice coming through the voice changer was hoarse, as if he had a bad cold, which made the stall owner at the second-hand market look up curiously.

Just one glance, but the stall owner was suddenly frightened by the viciousness in those eyes, and he suddenly lowered his head to look at the second-hand mobile phone in front of him.

“Collect…collect…”

***

After a large amount of support, the public apology of "No Overnight Grudges in Family" and the public statement of Yan Chaochao's agency, the public opinion on the Internet has been greatly reversed.

The little tricks of the production team of "There's No Overnight Grudges in the Family" did not escape the attention of netizens, but instead made them even more angry.

In the latest episode of the show, the number of views of "There's No Overnight Grudges in the Family" dropped directly to 20% of the previous level, reaching a historical low!

If the show maintains this level of viewership, it will likely be downgraded by the platform in the second half of this year, and its resources will be significantly reduced. Even before it reaches the point of being downgraded, the show's viewership has already plummeted, and discontent has already surfaced within the platform, meaning the entire production team will face a difficult time.

Even when online public opinion reversed, Yan Xixi did not feel relieved.

On the surface, this public opinion incident was just caused by that couple.

But judging from the results of Yan Xixi's investigation, it is obviously not that simple.

But there is no doubt that the couple is obviously an excellent entry point.

Yan Xixi did not underestimate the couple's greed. Soon, the private detective who was waiting at the door of "Family Has No Overnight Grudges" brought Yan Xixi the news that he had found the couple's current whereabouts.

After confirming the location, Yan Xixi dialed the phone without hesitation: "Hello? Police? I want to report a crime..."

20 minutes later, the middle-aged couple, who were already frightened and were about to pack their luggage to return home, were handcuffed as soon as they opened the door.

"Freeze! Police!"

By the time the police escorted the middle-aged couple out of the door, the reporter that Yan Xixi had contacted earlier was already squatting at the door and taking pictures.

After blurring out the police officer's face, the photo was quickly uploaded to the Starlight Blog.

***

On the Xingguang Blog, netizens who were originally angry were immediately surprised when they saw who the person in the photo was.

[At first, I was wondering who these two people were and why they were trending on the search results. But after a closer look...hiss——]

[Who would have thought that just a week ago, these two people were still talking nonsense and making up rumors on the show, and now they are handcuffed?]

[Holy crap! Are the police really that fast?]

[(Eating melons) Where are the people who supported these two before? Isn't that embarrassing?]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. This reminds me of someone saying earlier that the two were wrongly accused. What's going on now? Can't the police even arrest people to shut you up?]

When seeing this picture, ordinary netizens who did not make any excessive remarks were just watching the show.

However, there were also some black fans and marketing accounts who had also made radical remarks on the Internet. After seeing this picture, they were so scared that they opened secondary accounts to ask questions below.

[They just said a few words on the show, why were they arrested?]

Who called the police? Isn't this just a small matter?

[Is it that serious... It's just a few words, are celebrities so sensitive? ]

These remarks were quickly rebuffed by other netizens.

Are there so many people on the internet who are ignorant of the law? Don't they even know that this kind of thing is illegal?

[A small matter? Honestly, arresting someone for this kind of obvious slander and rumor-mongering is only the first step. There are many more steps to follow.]

[Yan Chaozhao was forced to stay on the trending search for so many days and was scolded for so long... The impact of this incident is far from being a "small matter"]

[“Glass heart”? It’s your turn to be on the trending search and being scolded by so many people, and it’s because of something that doesn’t even exist. You can say “glass heart” again!]

***

When netizens were discussing this heatedly, another person in the dark room saw this trending search and his face turned very ugly.

"Waste!" Cheng Aotian gritted his teeth and said, "You can't even run away! And you were caught!"

Based on Cheng Aotian's understanding of the middle-aged couple, he had no doubt that they would reveal his existence in order to minimize their faults.

Fortunately, a voice-changing device was used every time they contacted each other, and a virtual foreign account was used for money transfers. Even the last mobile phone that could be used to catch them had been sold.

Once it flows into the second-hand trading market, who can find it out?

Thinking of this, Cheng Aotian felt a little relieved.

Even so, Cheng Aotian was still a little uneasy. However, until the next day, when Cheng Aotian was about to go out to carry out his schedule, no news came, which made Cheng Aotian finally feel relieved.

It seems that they are not as powerful as imagined.

Since the disbanding of the group NICE, Cheng Aotian's popularity has declined significantly. The most obvious manifestation is his increasingly less frequent schedules.

During the NICE group activities, resting was a luxury for Cheng Aotian.

Now the situation is completely reversed.

For Cheng Aotian, work is a rare experience.

Cheng Aotian’s schedule today is not a large-scale event, but just an offline brand platform event.

If it was just after the debut of NICE, Cheng Aotian would not have considered this kind of activity. But now, Cheng Aotian dared not miss any opportunity.

The more high moments you have experienced, the more difficult it is to endure the current lows.

Unfortunately, Cheng Aotian no longer has the qualifications to be picky about opportunities. He can only try his best to seize every opportunity, hoping to climb up a little bit.

Although his popularity has obviously declined compared to before, when Cheng Aotian appeared in the mall, there were still a lot of exclamations around.

Surrounded by staff, Cheng Aotian walked to the brand's booth and smiled at the countless cameras and mobile phones aimed at him. At the same time, according to the on-site instructions, he picked up the brand's products and took photos with the products in various poses.

"Cheng Aotian! I love you!"

“Ah ...

"Brother is so handsome!"

Amid the screams and noise around him, Cheng Aotian was holding the brand's products, but for a moment he felt a little dazed, as if he had returned to the audition.

However, it wasn’t the draft in this life, but the one before he was reborn.

He has not yet experienced this adventure. Every performance on the stage and every experience in the show are passionate and real.

But on the stage of the finals, he stood under the stage, looking up at the shining figures on the stage, tears couldn't stop flowing down. The huge sense of frustration and despair made it almost impossible for him to breathe. He realized more pessimistically than anyone else that perhaps he would never be able to get so many people's cheers like them in his life.

However, God seemed to be particularly favored by him and gave him another chance to start over.

only……

There was a trace of confusion in Cheng Aotian's eyes. Looking at the environment of the shopping mall in front of him and the people around him, he felt a little disconnected in a trance.

A voice inside him was screaming madly.

No—it shouldn't be like this—

He should be standing on the stage, with countless people cheering for him and countless people shouting his name.

Not here!

In this mall!

Surrounded by such unprofessional equipment and eyes that looked like they were watching a play!

The huge gap between imagination and reality was tearing at Cheng Aotian's mind, almost splitting his brain.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the crowd. Some people even shifted their attention away from Cheng Aotian and focused on other places.

Looking at these people's reactions, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Cheng Aotian's eyes.

If he was at the height of his popularity, people like him wouldn't even be able to see him. Now that he finally has this opportunity, he's actually looking elsewhere.

What an idiot!

Cheng Aotian's vision was blocked by the crowd, and he couldn't see the situation outside at all, but the people outside were shocked by the person who suddenly appeared at the scene.

Policemen in uniform lined up and moved towards the crowd, constantly whispering "excuse me" and "police are investigating a case" to the people around them. However, the people who noticed the police cooperated and made way for them. However, every person who saw the police couldn't help but show an expression of surprise on their face.

Many of the people around were seeing the police arresting someone for the first time, and they couldn't help but discuss in low voices out of curiosity who the police were going to arrest.

"I see there are quite a few police officers at the scene. What kind of crime must have happened?" The two sisters who came together couldn't help but hold on to their younger sister's arms.

"I'm a little scared now... Could this person have done something serious..." The girl approached her boyfriend fearfully.

Although the boy was scared, he tried his best to calm down and tried to comfort the girl, "Don't worry, the police are here, nothing will happen."

Some people who saw the police coming did not leave, but were slowly retreating, worried that something unexpected might happen at the scene.

As the police moved closer to the center of the brand booth, the answer gradually became clear.

"Oh My God……"

"It's not what I thought..."

"Is this true?"

"Today doesn't seem to be April Fool's Day..."

The people who guessed the answer didn't dare to say it out loud because it was too scary.

Until the police stopped in front of Cheng Aotian, Cheng Aotian's expression went blank when he saw the police.

"Are you Cheng Aotian?" The police officer looked Cheng Aotian up and down and took out his police ID. "We've found out that you're involved in a case. Please come with us."

As soon as the police finished speaking, the crowd who had already made some guesses couldn't help but gasp. The audience who were originally in other directions and had not noticed the police almost popped their eyes out of their heads in surprise.

Under the surprised gazes of the people around, the surrounding noise suddenly sounded.

"What's going on? Why are the police suddenly here?"

"Why are the police standing in front of Cheng Aotian? Did he commit something wrong?"

"Oh my God! These celebrities all look so good, but who knows how many dirty things they've done behind the scenes!"

"Tsk tsk tsk... There were actually police officers on the scene to arrest someone. This really opened my eyes today!"

"The brand that invited Cheng Aotian to endorse their platform is really unlucky to have run into such an unlucky star!"

The surrounding sounds seemed to fade away from Cheng Aotian in an instant, and his face turned pale the moment the police appeared.

In a flash, only two words remained in Cheng Aotian's mind -

It’s over!
