Chapter 56 Specially Prepared Performance Costumes
After hanging up the phone, Xia Lili breathed a sigh of relief and immediately rushed to Li Qihan: "Captain Li, how long will it take you to arrest Shangguan Xu?"
Li Qihan had just verified the information with the eyewitness Xia Xubai and was looking through the files in the hotel conference room. He looked up at Xia Lili and saw that the other person's eyes were shining, as if he was holding back a lot of bad intentions, so he became alert.
The last time Xia Lili asked him to chat up He Lingyao, he had the same sinister expression.
Li Qihan sat upright and said, "Soon, within a week."
"Do what. You can't wait?"
Xia Lili told Li Qihan about her evil idea.
After listening to this, Li Qihan tapped Xia Lili on the head with the pen in his hand and said, "Do you think we can arrest people whenever we want?"
"The arrest warrant needs to be approved by the procuratorate."
"We can only arrest people if we have an arrest warrant."
Xia Lili lowered her head and said, "Oh, fine. As long as we can catch him as soon as possible."
She saluted Li Qihan and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Captain Li."
Being able to slap Shangguan Xu in the face directly on a live variety show and hit him with a hammer for slandering others is enough to make me feel relieved.
Li Qihan looked at Xia Lili's back, his eyes falling on Shangguan Xu's September schedule that Xia Lili had placed.
According to the schedule, Shangguan Xu will fly to other cities in two days after recording "Singing with You", and will also have overseas itineraries afterwards.
He frowned, picked up his phone and made a call: "It's me, Li Qihan, I have something to report..."
Another three days passed.
Over the past three days, Shangguan Xu has continued to occupy the focus of public opinion with his image as a "victim", and the popularity has remained high.
Shangguan Xu's fans have demonstrated amazing purchasing power and cohesion.
Not only did it show great support in offline brand events, it also directly led to a sales miracle for the cooperating brand - a new cosmetics product was sold out as soon as it was launched, and the online and offline stocks were quickly sold out.
What’s even more remarkable is that the latest magazine broke the entertainment industry’s sales record the moment it went on pre-sale!
Shangguan Xu clearly cut the leeks this time.
This incident made more brands realize the spending power of Shangguan Xu's fans. They all tried their best to negotiate cooperation with Shangguan Xu's agent, and each brand offered a higher price than the other.
Agent Zhang Xi has had a smile on his face these past few days.
The night before the live variety show "Sing with You" started recording.
Xia Xubai hasn't produced any evidence in the plagiarism scandal, but on the night of the incident, he posted a feeble and feeble Weibo post: "I'm the original author of 'Letter from Kirishima.' Shangguan Xu, please stop acting."
This Weibo post received 300,000 comments from Shangguan Xu's fans.
Online public opinion overwhelmingly supports Shangguan Xu.
However, to Xia Lili's surprise, Mi Wei'er actually retweeted Xia Xubai's Weibo post and added a comment: "Xia Xubai is the original author. Wait for the day when the truth is revealed."
As expected, Mi Wei'er was severely criticized by netizens, who even dug up the works in which Mi Wei'er had played supporting roles.
[He's not famous, but he loves to get attention. ]
【You are destined to be a supporting role for the rest of your life! 】
[I heard this woman is going to play the fourth female role in "Broken Moon Jue". Let's boycott this bad artist and ask the crew to replace her!]
Shangguan Xu's fanatical fans hated the whole thing and went to the official Weibo of the TV series "Broken Moon Jue" to post negative reviews, creating a huge mess.
After Xia Lili heard the news, she immediately sent a message to Mi Wei'er: "Sister Weiwei, you're on the rise in your career right now, and you've already stepped halfway into the entertainment industry. Please don't force yourself to be so aggressive for me. I'd feel guilty if this incident affected your chances of appearing in a TV series."
Mi Weier replied indignantly: "I really can't swallow this! Seeing you and your family go through this, I can't help you in any substantial way. If I had enough influence and voice now, how could these online mobs dare to hurt you so unscrupulously?"
Xia Lili's eyes were slightly warm as she replied word by word, "Thank you for standing by me at this moment. Believe me, your words of justice today will not be in vain."
The next afternoon.
Yangcheng River.
The karaoke bus of the "Sing with You" program team stopped by the river.
Today's guest is the recently popular Shangguan Xu. The protective railings on both sides of the temporary stage have long been crowded with fans, and today's security personnel are twice as many as previous programs.
Fans held up support signs for Shangguan Xu and cheered for their idol.
The music variety show "Sing with You" is a live broadcast, and the songs sung by the guests on the spot are selected by amateur guests.
The songs selected can be original songs sung by celebrity guests or classic hits by other well-known singers.
There are still five minutes left before the live broadcast begins. The host is livening up the atmosphere: "Welcome to our "Sing with You"!"
"Guess what song Shangguan Xu is going to sing today?"
The fans in the audience guessed Shangguan Xu’s popular single.
The host smiled and said, "Today's amateur guest has chosen a hit classic song - 'Actor'!"
When fans of Shangguan Qu at the scene heard the song chosen by the amateur guest, they expressed confusion and regret.
"How did you choose Senior Xue's song?"
"It's so hard to get a free live performance. I also want to hear Brother Xu sing his own songs!"
"Who is this amateur guest?"
"The answer will be revealed when the concert starts. I want to see who is spoiling the fun!"
Amateur guests will only come out from backstage when they are about to sing.
The celebrity guests greeted everyone first.
Shangguan Xu put on headphones backstage, ready to make his debut.
He looked left and right in the mirror.
The outfit prepared for him by the program sponsor today is a dark blue oversized trendy long-sleeved shirt.
Shangguan Xu frowned. "Damn it! Why does this blue look so much like the color of prison uniforms?"
Manager Zhang Xi immediately said "Pah, pah, pah" three times: "What are you talking about?"
"This shirt is the latest work of an independent designer."
"Previously, all the entertainers and guests provided their own clothes. This is the first time that the show sponsors have chosen the clothes for the entertainers."
"I heard that the president of Shengtang Group personally gave the order to make good arrangements. You guys should just be happy!"
Shangguan Xu smiled smugly upon hearing this: "Aren't these brands under Shengtang Group the most noble?"
He said with a smug look on his face, "Didn't Sheng Tang refuse to work with me three days ago? But three days later, my magazine and skincare product sales hit record highs, and now they're trying to curry my favor."
"Things change with time~"
Zhang Xi smiled and pushed him out: "Put away your smile, you'll have to play the victim later!"
As soon as Shangguan Xu appeared on stage, the whole audience burst into screams.
He looked sad, with freshly put eye drops in the corner of his eyes.
"Something happened recently that made me feel bad."
Shangguan Xu's eyes were filled with tears, and his hand holding the microphone was shaking slightly. "Luckily, my fans are here with me."
He made a heart shape with his hands towards the audience: "I love you!"
