Having tasted the benefits of this approach, Mingqian tried similar tricks in other CP groups related to him, and they always worked.
Of course, those were all niche shows, so the results weren't great. But this time, the radiant couple has a lot of fans, some of whom have been fans since the show when the two debuted. Later, the two collaborated on "Ghost Tracks," which greatly expanded the fanbase of this couple, even though the two didn't have a friendly relationship in the story of "Ghost Tracks."
After Mingqian posted those guiding comments, she quickly received many approving comments, but many rational CP fans also stood up to refute them, feeling that the comments were too extreme. Just because Rong Yu didn't post on Weibo at this time, it was a bit far-fetched to conclude that Rong Yu was a scumbag.
Mingqian didn't care about these debates. His goal was simply to plant a seed in the hearts of some CP fans, and he wasn't in a hurry to reap the rewards.
On the other hand, Yin Chengjue, who had been paying close attention to the changing online sentiment, quickly realized that Ming Qian was deliberately trying to clean up her fanbase.
But why choose this time?
Yin Chengjue couldn't quite understand it for a moment.
However, Yin Chengjue didn't like Rong Yu being paired with other people anyway, so let it go if it's over, he couldn't be happier.
However, it's a bit unreasonable to forcefully criticize one and praise the other when things are falling apart.
Yin Chengjue ran his fingertips through Rong Yu's soft hair, his eyelids slightly closed, his eyes hidden in the darkness beyond the reach of the desk lamp.
“Wu Lin…” Yin Chengjue said softly, “If you only focus on one target when you’re trying to fleece someone, you’ll suffer the consequences. Don’t you understand such a simple principle?”
Originally, Yin Chengjue was in a good mood because Rong Yu finished filming today and could go home, but because of this incident, his good mood vanished instantly.
Without saying a word, Yin Chengjue immediately had someone check Ming Qian's flight at the time. Based on the specific time, he found the surveillance footage and identified the people who had surrounded Ming Qian.
Those videos posted online must have had faces obscured, otherwise they would be sued for privacy violations, so Yin Chengjue had no choice but to go through such a long and complicated process to investigate.
Fortunately, the results of the investigation were not bad.
It turns out that those who surrounded Mingqian were not radiant CP fans at all, but professional trolls hired by Wu Lin.
The professional trolls were paid to do this. The client asked them to pretend to be fans of the Rong Guanghuanfa CP (couple pairing), to ambush Ming Qian at the airport, and to keep mentioning Rong Yu in front of Ming Qian, trying to create a rude and inappropriate atmosphere.
It was precisely because these people were only doing things for money that Yin Chengjue only needed to give them several times more money than Wu Lin, and they revealed the truth of the matter. They even thoughtfully provided Yin Chengjue with the chat records of Wu Lin's transaction with them.
Professional haters are all about attacking others. No matter who the target is, all they need to do is criticize. They might attack one celebrity today and another tomorrow. Essentially, it's just a group of people spewing profanities.
Having obtained these transaction records and key evidence, Yin Chengjue directly sent the evidence to several marketing accounts. The marketing accounts had naturally already seen the trending topic and had copied and pasted it to some extent to ride the wave. They originally thought it was just an infighting between solo fans and CP fans, but they didn't expect the plot to have a twist. They were instantly happy and hurriedly published the evidence sent by Yin Chengjue, along with the relevant keywords.
PipipijiV: You hired people to block yourself, you blame your own grievances on the CP, you staged your own crying, and your fans instantly turned into fighters, attacking this group and then that group. Your group is truly the most wronged, sob sob sob sob... [Images][Images][Images]
Soon after, the comment section below was filled with laughter.
Comment 1: Are marketing accounts' copywriting all this poetic these days?
Comment 2: These days, you can't write catchy copy if you can't compose some limericks.
Comment 3: Although this limerick doesn't deserve the title of "widely known and loved," I think Comment 2 is right!
Comment 4: So what exactly is going on? Is this evidence real? Did Mingqian hire people to ambush her at the airport and then frame the CP fans? So those CP fans who are being relentlessly attacked by solo stans at the top of the trending topics are actually innocent?
Comment 5: If this whole thing is true, I'm speechless. The CP fans were just sitting at home when this whole thing fell from the sky. They were chased and scolded by the solo fans all night, and then they all stood up to apologize, apologizing to the idol and to the solo fans. They were practically burying their heads in the mud. But now, a complete reversal has occurred. It turns out that the idol orchestrated this whole thing, and the CP fans were just scapegoats. Tsk tsk tsk, so tragic, so tragic.
Comment 6: These trashy marketing accounts, will they die if they don't try to ride the wave of trending topics? Just because they have a few WeChat accounts doesn't mean they can do whatever they want, right? Talking to themselves and spouting nonsense, is that even acceptable?
Comment 7: I've learned something new. These days, you can just create a WeChat group with a few WeChat accounts, post some transaction records, and say some nonsense, and that's considered solid evidence of a celebrity's scandals.
Some bystanders were just watching the drama unfold, while others were refuting it, but what did it matter? This was exactly the effect the marketing accounts wanted. Yin Chengjue wanted to add another voice to this obviously one-sided public opinion, to make the balance of public opinion swing back and forth, with the aim of preventing Wu Lin's side from completely controlling the direction of public opinion.
Wu Lin, didn't you want to turn the Rongguanghuanfa CP fans into Mingqian's solo fans? Fine, then I'll show those scapegoated CP fans just how big and how black this pot is.
Of course, the radiant couple can choose not to believe it, but when the solo fans keep blaming them, the CP fans who didn't actually do anything will definitely be unhappy, and a thorn will be planted in their hearts.
As expected, after these marketing accounts released evidence reversing the situation, showing that this was a staged event orchestrated by Mingqian's PR team to deliberately make the CP fans take the blame, many CP fans lost their composure and demanded an explanation.
Wu Lin was used to doing these things, and he thought he would get what he wanted this time as before. However, he never expected that after he planted the seeds, cultivated public opinion, and kept "watering and fertilizing" them, he would be able to reap the rewards of his fans. But at this critical moment, he suffered a reversal.
It would be a lie to say I'm not angry.
I'm so angry I could vomit blood!
Fortunately, the person who started the "Radiant CP" super topic was his PR team, so there's still room for salvage.
Wu Lin quickly had someone post a long, unwritten article on Weibo, written in the voice of a CP (couple) fan. He first expressed his grievances in the incident, resonating with other CP fans, then shifted his focus to professional trolls. The entire post emphasized one sentence: "Qianqian is the victim, Qianqian is innocent. He was the one who was surrounded, he was the one whose schedule was disrupted! Why then, at the last minute, are they spreading rumors that he fabricated the whole thing?"
A long essay, written with great emotion and every word a gem, recounts the endless grievances of a CP fan in this incident from the perspective of a CP fan. The fault lies entirely with professional trolls, and has nothing to do with them or solo fans. It is all because other groups are jealous that they hired trolls to sow discord.
At this time, the Asagi fans also stood up and strongly criticized the professional trolls.
Suddenly, solo fans and CP fans seemed to have found a common goal and began to unite against the outside world.
The farce that lasted all night ended in this way.
But Yin Chengjue knew that this was only the beginning; the seeds of trouble had already been sown.
Yin Chengjue stayed up all night and couldn't get up the next morning.
Fortunately, I have the day off today, so it won't interfere with my work, it's just...
Yin Chengjue lay flat on the bed, touching the half of the blanket that had gone cold, feeling the strong smell of burning that lingered around his nose, and for a moment he didn't know what expression to make.
Yin Chengjue slowly stretched, trying to comfort himself.
At least, this smell proves that Xiaoyu is home...
Yin Chengjue picked up the robe that had fallen to the ground, put it on, casually tied the belt around his waist, and walked out into the room, facing the burning smell that could be smelled even through the door.
It wasn't that Yin Chengjue was carefree, but rather... when something happens frequently, it really does become... commonplace.
Yin Chengjue was certainly aware that such commonplace behavior posed a certain danger to his life, but...
Yin Chengjue walked down the stairs, his gaze falling on the place where the burnt smell was coming from—the kitchen.
"Xiaoyu?" Yin Chengjue coughed lightly. "What did you burn this time?"
Clang!
As Yin Chengjue asked his question, a crisp sound came from the kitchen!
"Brother, brother! You, you're awake!" Rong Yu's voice was clearly tinged with panic: "I, I just wanted to fry an egg for you, I swear! I really just wanted to fry an egg!"
Yin Chengjue: "You..."
"Don't come in!" Rong Yu said anxiously, "Don't come in yet!"
Yin Chengjue said helplessly, "Xiaoyu, the air inside isn't good, so I'll go in and turn on the exhaust fan to ventilate the room."
Rong Yu: "Don't come in! I can drive!"
Yin Chengjue: "...I'll do it. Just leave it alone. It's just an exhaust fan."
As Yin Chengjue spoke, he stepped inside, his gaze first falling on the horribly damaged stove, showing no surprise at its miserable state.
However, when Yin Chengjue looked around the kitchen to check on Rong Yu's condition, he suddenly froze, his pupils dilating in shock!
At this moment, Rong Yu was wearing the black apron that Yin Chengjue usually wore, holding a spatula, standing there somewhat awkwardly, her gaze darting around, not daring to meet Yin Chengjue's eyes.
Well, the wording here isn't quite accurate.
The so-called "wearing a black apron" is just that—wearing a black apron; nothing else...!
Moreover, because this apron was bought specifically for Yin Chengjue's size, it was noticeably several sizes too big for Rong Yu...
Yin Chengjue: "..." His breathing suddenly became heavy!
"Brother, I'm sorry... I messed up again..." Rong Yu looked somewhat dejected.
“No…” Yin Chengjue casually pulled off his already loosely tied belt and walked towards Rong Yu: “I really like this breakfast.”
