Chapter 68 I have to log in to this account.
The whistleblower was a passerby who posted a video.
In the video, Chi Yanzhou stands aloofly beside the elevator, with his friend next to him.
Before Chi Yanzhou, a man knelt and pleaded desperately.
In the magnificent, brightly lit, and bustling hotel, Chi Yanzhou looked down at the pitiful-looking man in front of him with a cold and stern expression, as if looking down at an ant.
The video caused a huge uproar as soon as it was released.
Chi Yanzhou's fans immediately flocked to the original Weibo post and marketing accounts to flood the comment section.
Don't believe or spread rumors. Our Brother Zhou has always been very low-key. Please pay more attention to his new drama.
Before the truth comes out, please remain rational and refrain from using such misleading language.
[Brother Zhou has always been committed to charity, and all the seniors he has worked with have praised him. There must be more to this story.]
However, the speed at which this matter developed was somewhat beyond imagination.
One reason is that Chi Yanzhou himself has a very high profile, and the other is that it seems someone deliberately bought trending topics and hired online trolls.
Even though Chi Yanzhou has a huge number of fans, the comments section on Weibo is full of people criticizing him.
He's always been a show-off; I've seen through his arrogance and questionable character for a long time.
He always acts superior; you'd think someone owes him a lot of money.
[He used to argue with guests and fans on shows, I really don't know how someone like that can stay in the entertainment industry for so long, and his fans are truly brainless!]
Later, it was discovered that the kneeling man appeared to be a wealthy second-generation heir who had participated in the show "Love Restart" and had clashed with Chi Yanzhou during the program.
But after that episode, I never saw this ordinary person again.
An insider revealed that, reportedly due to friction during the show, Chi Yanzhou, being narrow-minded and angry, actually caused the other party's company to go bankrupt!
Because of a trivial matter, someone was ruined and killed!
Public opinion snowballed, growing larger and larger, and all sorts of things about Chi Yanzhou's bullying and oppression came to light all at once.
Countless posts appeared, all condemning Chi Yanzhou, and in an instant, Chi Yanzhou became the target of public criticism online.
Shengtian Entertainment held an emergency meeting. This is their pillar! He's practically the heir apparent!
Chi Yanzhou sat in the conference room with little interest, his expression indifferent and his eyes unwavering, as if he were talking about something else entirely.
The public relations director and his team quickly reviewed the incident.
"We checked the whistleblower's account, which was newly registered and only posted this one Weibo post, yet it quickly attracted public attention. It seems that the other party came prepared."
Furthermore, they hired a large number of online trolls to orchestrate the conflict, starting with the clash with the rich second-generation in the drama "Love Reborn." We suspect that this incident is very likely a scheme orchestrated by the rich second-generation to retaliate against you!
"Is there any need to doubt it? It's so obvious!"
Chi Yanzhou let out a cold laugh, a dangerous glint in his eyes, and leaned back in his chair, his expression indifferent.
Kevin frowned, scrolling through trending topics on his tablet. He had no time to respond to the various people trying to reach him on WeChat, and his tone was emotionless.
"It's been over an hour since Jubao News broke, we need to respond as soon as possible. What are the public relations department's plans?"
The PR manager nervously swallowed.
"Because this trending topic is a frame-up, our public relations department's idea is to let the evidence speak for itself."
First, both the company and Mr. Chi need to issue a clarification statement.
In addition, the company also quickly gathered information about the man in the video and confirmed the problems with the company behind him.
Once this content is published, it will naturally prove that the other party is at fault.
Kevin nodded. The public relations department's idea was correct. If it were true, they would need to use their brains to change the direction of public opinion. But since it was a frame-up, they only needed to produce evidence, and the innocent would naturally clear themselves.
"In terms of company operations, we also need to be prepared to guide public opinion immediately once the statement is released and guard against the other party's online trolls."
After Kevin finished giving his instructions, he looked up at the nonchalant Chi Yanzhou.
"Yanzhou, what do you think? Do you have any ideas?"
Chi Yanzhou frowned and clicked his tongue in disgust, causing the others in the room to look at him nervously.
"It's not easy to sell."
"Um?"
Kevin didn't understand and was about to ask when Chi Yanzhou shushed him. The others could only look at him nervously and worriedly, wondering what the Crown Prince's instructions were.
Chi Yanzhou looked down at his phone, his fingers hesitantly tapping a few times before his brows relaxed, his expression softened, and even a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
Chi Yanzhou casually placed his phone on the table. Kevin glanced at it subconsciously and saw a picture of the landlord winning, showing that he had earned tens of thousands of Happy Beans.
Kevin: ""
Chi Yanzhou crossed his legs, casually resting his arms on the table, looking completely at ease.
"Those who can get into Shengtian are all capable people, so I don't need to worry about such a small matter."
On the surface, he was praising the public relations department, but in reality, he was putting pressure on them. If they couldn't even handle this small matter, they wouldn't need to stay at Shengtian.
The public relations manager's forehead was covered in a dense layer of cold sweat, and his back was damp. He nodded nervously in agreement.
"I only have one request."
Chi Yanzhou, like a smiling tiger, looked at the company's head and said, "I'm the kind of person who holds grudges. That rich kid tripped me up, and I won't let him off so easily."
"Mr. Chi, don't worry, I will deal with him quietly after this matter is resolved."
"Hey, this is a civilized society, why are you still doing this kind of thing!"
Chi Yanzhou stood up, looked at the person in charge with disdain, patted him on the shoulder, and said softly and gently:
"Since he likes kneeling so much, just cripple his legs."
“”
Shengtian Entertainment quickly issued a statement saying that it would pursue legal action against all accounts that made false accusations.
Chi Yanzhou's principle: I will pursue legal action against anyone who criticizes me!
Chi Yanzhou himself also posted a Weibo post:
[Chi Yanzhou: The Qing Dynasty has been gone for so long, and you still haven't cut off your queue? Why do you kneel down to everyone you meet? I'm just an ordinary, unremarkable commoner.]
With the planning of the company's operations department and the support of Chi Yanzhou's fans, public opinion gradually moved in a normal direction.
That rich kid was very disrespectful on the show; I wonder what kind of act he's putting on this time!
[Brother Yanzhou has always been a serious, hardworking, and low-key actor. Please pay more attention to his works.]
[The truth has been revealed! The company owned by the rich second-generation heir evaded taxes, misappropriated company funds, and even harmed employees. Our Brother Zhou was simply acting on behalf of justice!]
However, a large number of haters and the opposing side's online trolls are still persisting.
[My God! Your brother Yanzhou is so amazing? Is he Bao Zheng (a famous judge in Chinese history)? Does this country have no laws?]
Even if a rich kid is annoying, that's just a matter of his character. But isn't it a bit too much for Chi Yanzhou to make someone kneel down?!
[Yeah, the way Chi Yanzhou acted so arrogantly in the video disgusted me. He must have made the rich kid kneel down, wanting to see him grovel at his feet!]
The two sides argued endlessly over the official statement and Chi Yanzhou's Weibo. Unexpectedly, the rich second-generation's hired online army was quite powerful, and even so, it was still able to guide public opinion.
Just as the two sides were arguing, another troublemaker arrived.
Song Shiwei posted a Weibo post featuring trending search terms.
[Weiwei enjoys the Imperial Ancestral Temple: What are you all arguing about? How could you not invite me to such a good show?]
Although Brother Zhou looked arrogant, that rich kid is definitely a complete idiot! I have to get involved in this and give you guys a piece of my mind!
Below a passionate rap track is a video showing footage recorded at the hotel that day, including a video of a rich kid yelling and threatening to hit someone.
The release of this video, coupled with Song Shiwei's powerful fan base, has stirred up the mess even further.
But at least it proves that the rich kid was in the wrong first. Chi Yanzhou did not humiliate the rich kid; he only had himself to blame.
The moral pressure gradually shifted, but public opinion gradually went astray.
More fans noticed that the friend standing next to Chi Yanzhou in the very first video was none other than Song Shiwei!
Did the two enter and leave the hotel together?
Song Shiwei even took the initiative to stand up for Chi Yanzhou and testify?
What exactly is the relationship between the two?!
