Ma Mingzhi was very glad that he left Canglan in advance.
As expected, his brother-in-law died in a car accident.
When his wife heard the news, she was devastated and wanted to immediately back out of Canglan.
Unfortunately, because my passport was damaged by a mischievous child, it was impossible for me to go back immediately.
Thus, Ma Mingzhi remained abroad for the time being.
Ye Lan and his group had no intention of causing trouble for Ma Mingzhi.
After all, there is a clear cause for this matter, and Hou Yong acted on his own initiative, which has nothing to do with Ma Mingzhi.
Strictly speaking, Ma Mingzhi was also a victim; his resignation was entirely due to Hou Yong's involvement.
Hou Yong is dead, but Li Tian has still been thrust into the spotlight by netizens.
A label of nepotism was attached to Li Tian.
Furthermore, many people accused Li Tian of using the Spring Festival Gala and Lantern Festival Gala to seek benefits for his family.
Didn't you see that Li Tianyi's whole family appeared on the Spring Festival Gala and the Lantern Festival Gala this year?
Although Li Wushuang and his wife did not appear on the Spring Festival Gala, they did appear on this year's Lantern Festival Gala.
Doesn't this demonstrate Li Tian's ugly face of nepotism?
As the incident unfolded, more and more netizens pointed the finger at Li Tian.
Many netizens also hope that Li Tian can come forward and give an explanation.
When Li Tian got home that evening and saw this kind of public opinion, he laughed.
If one were merely a big star or a deputy minister, such public opinion would indeed be enough to cause them considerable distress.
But now, with his status as a third-time awakener, the entire Canglan leadership has to treat him with deference.
These netizens' comments don't hurt them in the slightest.
"Hmph, these netizens are despicable! What right do they have to interfere in our own affairs!"
Huang Yin was so angry when he saw these comments that he cursed them out.
It's really our own investment, our own script, so what's wrong with using our own people?
How is this nepotism? What does it have to do with you?
Li Tian, however, didn't take it to heart and said, "There's no need to get angry with these people. I'll handle it myself!"
"What do you know? Lanping must be feeling extremely guilty right now. The more they scold you like this, the more guilty Lanping will feel!"
Li Tian nodded in agreement when he heard Huang Yin's words.
After all, this whole thing started because he had hired Lan Ping, so you can imagine how his junior sister must feel right now.
"Yes, you're right. It seems that simply letting this go unnoticed won't work!"
Li Tian's original plan was to handle it quietly, something he learned on Earth.
What's this little thing of mine? Think about the uproar about the Antarctic catfish back then, what happened in the end?
It's still the same; it's still under investigation.
No matter how many times netizens check in or sign in, it all just fizzles out in the end.
And that girl named Kexin, that also just fizzled out.
Li Tian felt that his own problem was nothing, so he planned to use the same method.
He thought that if the situation was left to cool down for a while, the public opinion would naturally subside.
When "The Legend of the White Snake" is released, the junior sister will let her acting speak for itself, and these people will naturally shut their mouths.
But upon hearing Huang Yin's words, he knew that remaining silent would make his junior sister feel guilty.
As the senior brother, he naturally wouldn't put pressure on Lan Ping, his junior sister.
Li Tian thought for a moment, then took out his phone and posted a status update on Weibo.
Li Tian: In view of the comments from many netizens accusing me of nepotism, in order to avoid suspicion, I, Li Tian, hereby declare that I will no longer participate in the preparation of the Spring Festival Gala or any other gala. I am posting this as proof and ask the netizens to supervise me!
After this post was published, all netizens were dumbfounded.
We just wanted you to step forward and give an explanation, but you flipped the table and refused to play anymore.
That's not how the script goes. Shouldn't you, Li Tian, make a guarantee at this point that you will handle things fairly and justly in the future?
What do you mean by not participating in the preparation of any gala?
The Spring Festival Gala and Lantern Festival Gala of the past two years were made so wonderful because of Li Tian's participation.
Now that Li Tian is no longer involved, are these two galas still worth watching?
But before these netizens could express their opinions, Huang Yin also followed up with an update from Li Tian.
Huang Yin: To avoid any issues regarding my husband's position and accusations of nepotism, I hereby declare that I will no longer attend any parties or events! Thank you for your oversight.
This post immediately caused an uproar among netizens.
Huang Yin, what do you mean by this? It's one thing for Li Tian not to participate in the preparations for the gala, after all, he is the Vice Minister of Culture.
You, Huang Yin, are an entertainment star, yet you don't even appear on platforms like the Spring Festival Gala. Don't you think too highly of yourself?
But this wasn't the end. Less than five minutes later, Ye Feng also posted an update on Weibo.
Night Breeze: To avoid any suspicion, I hereby declare that I will not attend any parties in the future, so as to avoid people saying that I got to my position because of my father, and also to avoid people saying that my father is a nepotist!
After Ye Feng posted this message, netizens couldn't sit still any longer.
"No, I disagree. Night Wind, don't care about those bastards' opinions. We support you!"
"Night Wind, YYDS, yes, we support you this time. It's just a lousy gala, so what if you don't go?"
"I hereby declare that I will never watch any more variety shows again. This post serves as proof!"
"Damn it, without Li Tian, do you guys who were shouting expect me to see those old trash again?! Damn it!"
