"Defense and Counterattack"
Just as Ah Yu and Zhong Hua's lives were gradually getting back on track, their careers were flourishing, and their relationship was deepening, the calm lake was once again stirred up. As their fame grew, some people with ulterior motives, like shadows lurking in the dark, began to create new media storms.
Initially, only a few insinuating comments appeared in certain corners of the internet, suggesting that Ah Yu's career achievements were merely due to luck and climbing the social ladder, while Zhong Hua's artwork was denigrated as devoid of substance and superficial, and even their sincere relationship was maliciously distorted into a farce full of self-interest. These false rumors, like a malignant tumor, started as scattered specks, but soon, fueled by those with ulterior motives, they spread rapidly, like wildfire, reaching the trending topics on major social media platforms.
When Ah Yu and Zhong Hua first learned of this news, they were filled with anger and injustice. Ah Yu, looking at the distorted and fabricated words, trembled with rage. He couldn't believe that everything he and Zhong Hua had worked so hard to build and nurtured had been so maliciously trampled upon. Zhong Hua's eyes reddened, tears welling up. She simply couldn't accept the slander against their relationship—a deep bond they had cherished and weathered countless storms together. How could they allow such defamation?
However, they quickly calmed down. They knew that in this war of public opinion without gunfire, anger and resentment would not solve the problem. Only by remaining rational and responding proactively could they protect everything they had worked so hard for.
Ah Yu and Zhong Hua sat in their living room, the light shining on their slightly serious faces. They looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.
"We can't let these rumors continue to spread; we have to do something," Ah Yu said, clenching her fist.
Zhong Hua nodded gently, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Yes, we must let everyone know the truth, and we cannot let those rumor-mongers succeed."
Therefore, they decided to take a proactive approach to this public opinion storm. Ah Yu first contacted his company's public relations team to discuss response strategies. Subsequently, through the company's official channels, they released a sincere and well-organized statement. The statement detailed Ah Yu's journey since joining the company, highlighting his solid professional knowledge and diligent work ethic, listing the various projects he participated in and his actual contributions, effectively refuting the rumors that he relied on luck and connections.
Regarding Zhong Hua's section, they included evaluations of her work by prominent figures in the art world, along with photos and sketches from her creative process, showcasing her passion for art and the dedication she poured into each piece. This was intended to prove that Zhong Hua's artistic achievements were the result of her talent and tireless efforts. As for their relationship, they included many heartwarming photos of their daily interactions, showing them working diligently together on charity projects and encouraging each other during difficult times. These genuine moments undoubtedly serve as a powerful rebuttal to those malicious and distorted claims about their relationship.
Meanwhile, Ah Yu and Zhong Hua began collecting evidence. They meticulously analyzed every piece of rumor online, using technical means to trace the source of the information and pinpoint the accounts that maliciously spread the rumors. They consulted professional lawyers, preparing to pursue the legal responsibility of these rumor-mongers and make them pay the price for their malicious behavior.
Upon learning of this, Su Yao and her husband also stood up without hesitation to speak out for A Yu and Zhong Hua. Su Yao posted a long article on her social media account, recounting her observations of A Yu and Zhong Hua since they met, highlighting their dedication to their careers and their pure and sincere feelings. She urged everyone not to believe baseless rumors, but to use their own eyes and reason to judge. Su Yao's husband also actively shared related content, mobilizing friends and family to help spread the truth and let more people know the facts.
During this process, their relatives and friends lent a helping hand. Some helped contact the media, hoping to clarify the facts through formal news reports; others patiently explained the situation to everyone in various social media groups, clearing Ah Yu and Zhong Hua's name. Their fans, on the other hand, demonstrated strong cohesion, spontaneously organizing themselves to engage in rational debates online with those spreading rumors, refuting those false statements with facts and reason.
Gradually, public opinion began to shift. Some netizens who had been misled by the rumors began to reflect on their previous gullibility after seeing the statements released by Ah Yu and Zhong Hua, as well as various compelling evidence, and instead began to condemn the rumor-mongers. More and more people stood up to support Ah Yu and Zhong Hua, and those malicious rumors gradually lost their appeal, and their popularity slowly subsided.
Ah Yu and Zhong Hua successfully weathered the public opinion crisis once again, but the impact of this incident on them did not dissipate.
After this incident, Ah Yu became more cautious and low-key at work. He knew that fame often brings trouble, and although he didn't want to give up his career advancement because of these unwarranted disturbances, he also understood that he needed to be more careful in protecting his image and reputation. He devoted more energy to improving his professional skills, actively participating in various training courses within the company, and using his spare time to read a large number of professional books and exchange experiences with industry veterans, hoping to achieve better results in future projects and silence those who wanted to continue spreading rumors and causing trouble.
