Chapter 302: Almost Certain [Thanks to kukocrazo and Shiguang1979 for the reward! ]
That evening, Du Sheng posted a statement on the platform and posted a registration picture.
[Du Sheng's popularity has skyrocketed, and some companies are jealous! ]
[Public opinion reversed, Du Sheng allegedly posted proof of copyright! ]
[Old entertainment companies such as Huayi and Rongxinda team up to suppress Star Media? 】
[There are three major loopholes in Cui Qihua’s blog post. It’s fake, fake, fake! ]
I have to say that Yang Siwei's hype skills are indeed clever. That night, news about Du Sheng frequently became a hot topic.
From being accused of plagiarism to being semi-whitewashed, all kinds of rumors emerged throughout the process.
As soon as Fengxing Culture and other online media finished smearing Du Sheng, fans of Du Sheng followed closely and revealed the so-called inside story, claiming that Du Sheng was wrongly accused.
Immediately afterwards, the haters who supported Cui Qihua and the manipulators behind the scenes produced evidence to refute the allegations.
This went on and on, with the two sides going back and forth for several times, and the temperature getting higher and higher.
Yang Siwei's series of actions left the audience dazzled.
It also allows the spectators to eat their fill.
As for Du Sheng, it seems that he is still collecting evidence and materials, and has not yet given any final word or explosive news.
It was not until 12: in the evening that Du Sheng saw his reputation value skyrocket to , and the increase was once very obvious.
However, I don’t know if it’s because there have been too many reversals, but the spectators have become less savvy.
They learned to sit back and wait for the bullets to fly for a while.
Du Sheng knew that some things had to be done in moderation, otherwise it would be bad if the tap water was cut off.
Not long after, Star Media, Mobile Operations Department, Qianqian Jingting and others officially released announcements on the Internet.
The gist is that China Mobile and Qianqian Jingting have launched a fair, just and in-depth investigation into the dark tide of public opinion brewing on the Internet.
It is clear that all copyrights of the song "Seeking Buddha" belong to Du Sheng, and the certificate is posted:
(Attached is the registration information of the two major copyright agencies, as well as authorization licenses, etc.)
It has also been verified by authoritative organizations that Du Sheng did not steal or plagiarize the song "Pray to Buddha" and he can provide the time and details of the creation and recording at any time.
The posts published by Cui Qihua on his blog clearly contained elements of serious distortion, slander, and misleading.
In order to protect Mr. Du Sheng's reputation and to provide a fair and just environment for the list, we have requested the relevant departments to intervene and have obtained the cooperation of the bloggers in the investigation.
Such a statement is like a sharp sword, cutting off all untruths.
Once it was released, it immediately attracted widespread attention and heated discussion.
Most people were shocked by this and appreciated the firm attitude of Mobile and Qianqian Jingting.
Obviously, their actions were not only to support Du Sheng, but also to defend their own interests.
They want to tell people with ulterior motives what the consequences of challenging authority will be.
If this was not clear enough, then ten minutes later, a notice on the blog, like a judge's verdict, directly sentenced Cui Qihua to death.
This notice did not contain a long speech, but only gave a statement in a rigorous tone:
[In order to create a fair and just online environment for the platform and combat malicious...
Cui Qihua’s post was seriously misleading and defamatory and has been deleted.
In addition, through technical investigation, Cui Qihua's login address is in Singapore XX, and it matches the IP address of "Shiyan Network Technology", and this account is also banned. 】
It would be fine if he didn't make a move, but once he made a move, even his pants fell down!
Everyone in the industry knows that Shiyan Network is a water army company that has been stirring up trouble on the Internet.
There are even rumors that this company has some connection with Huayi.
What is even more ridiculous is that the company's founder is only 26 years old. How could he have more than ten years of creative experience?
How can one develop musical talent when he can’t even recognize all the characters?
He never left Singapore, but kept making up tragic stories to gain sympathy.
Netizens feel they have been fooled!
I got so angry that my blood pressure suddenly rose.
Especially those who once defended Cui Qihua, their anger was enough to ignite the entire Internet.
Simply by banning their accounts and preventing them from commenting, they turned their attention to the bloggers and influencers who initially instigated public opinion.
Unexpectedly, these bloggers and big Vs were quite cunning. Once they realized that the situation was not right, they deleted the relevant reposts and comments.
Some even pretended to be bystanders and joined the condemnation.
Those slow-moving water armies and marketing accounts have already been overwhelmed by the angry netizens.
Yang Siwei and Liu Shaojun were glad that they got ashore early, otherwise they would not be able to escape the fate.
Yang Siwei rolled his eyes and simply stirred up public opinion, launching a new round of attacks against Fengxing Culture and other people who were secretly fanning the flames.
Companies such as Huayi and Rongxinda were also implicated to varying degrees.
It can be said that this move was a complete loss!
Du Sheng, who was originally caught in a public opinion crisis, not only exceeded 1000 million fans on the platform, but his golden body became more and more solid due to the spontaneous and apologetic actions of netizens.
The sales of the three major operators, Qianqian Jingting, Wahaha, Kungfu Pai and other companies that support Du Sheng also increased significantly.
Even the company's stock price appreciated out of thin air.
Such a huge unexpected gain made all the partners smile so hard that they couldn’t stop.
Not to mention the netizens' kind actions, this online exposure incident against Du Sheng just disappeared without him even saying a word.
Public opinion really comes and goes like a gust of wind.
Du Sheng was a little amused and shook his head:
"Why shoot yourself in the foot?"
The other party's attack this time was obviously too hasty.
If they could design carefully and avoid the dangers cleverly, coupled with those inflammatory words and the people behind the scenes, even if Du Sheng could not be imprisoned, he would at least be overwhelmed. However, these forces did not seem to be able to gather their strength, and each fought on its own.
The evidence such as 'audio' and manuscripts provided by Cui Qihua also failed to conclusively prove the truth.
The most direct result of this incident is that the number of Du Sheng's die-hard fans has increased dramatically.
Related topics continue to heat up on major social platforms, frequently topping the hot search lists.
I have to admit that Yang Siwei is indeed a master of hype.
You can understand all kinds of things at once.
The methods and routines that only appeared a few years later in the previous life were developed in advance.
At noon the next day, Du Sheng published a formal statement on his blog, defining the incident.
It's nothing more than thanking the three major operators and Qianqian Jingting, thanking all the relatives and friends, and thanking the fans who have trusted and supported me from the beginning to the end.
At the same time, he also clarified his position and that he did not intend to pursue the incident.
Finally, in order to thank everyone for their love, he also announced that two new singles from "Legend of Sword and Fairy 1" will be released soon.
At that time, we will give back the free trial listening, and we will also randomly select 1 listeners from the three major operators to give away ringtones...
Once this blog post was published, it quickly attracted the attention of a large number of fans and passers-by.
They forwarded and commented on it one after another, and for a time, the popularity of the related content soared like oil heating up a raging fire.
In just two hours, the number of reposts exceeded 100,000, and her popularity is in no way inferior to that of international celebrities like Zhang Ziyi.
Many people even began to look forward to the broadcast of "Legend of Sword and Fairy 1".
Not to mention the disturbances on the Internet, Du Sheng has already returned to the filming of "House of Flying Daggers".
After the plagiarism scandal was settled, he glanced at his reputation value.
[Reputation value]: 150392
I have to say that the effect of this hype was unexpectedly good!
This growth is almost comparable to the K1 fighting finals.
Du Sheng glanced at the skills, and considering that he would be facing the Giant God Soldier next, he decided to add all of them to "Dragon Elephant".
[Dragon Elephant Prajna Power: Fifth Level/Purple (636240/728000)]
Calculating the remaining time, if there is one more major event, there is hope for a breakthrough before the fight starts!
Du Sheng instantly thought of Liu Xiang's IAAF Grand Prix, which would probably attract a lot of attention.
On October 10, the filming of Mudanfang was finally completed.
To continue with the rest, you have to go to Wu Kelan.
However, the bamboo forest scene over there has not been completely set up yet.
Zhang Yimou arrived early and asked Liu Dehua, Du Sheng, Zhang Baizhi and others to join the group next week.
This is convenient for Du Sheng's schedule.
After all, October 10th is the K28 GP finals.
The few days after the fight are also the busiest time of the schedule.
As for Liu Dehua and Zhang Baizhi, they have been in the group for so long that many matters have been delayed, so they are rushing back to participate in activities.
"Brother Sheng, the box office of Infernal Affairs 2 has exceeded 4 million!"
Wang Yaoyang said happily while driving.
Although the growth rate of movie box office has declined slightly after the National Day, this is the law of the market.
During this period, many films that are favored by the industry were released, which will have some impact on the film.
But Infernal Affairs 2 did not see a significant drop.
If we take into account the official date of the film's withdrawal, reaching the 4500 million target is a sure thing!
This data has surpassed "Big Guy" and ranked among the top four in the mainland's annual box office.
As for the Hong Kong box office, although it is not as good as the first film, it has now exceeded 3000 million, ranking among the top five annual box office in Hong Kong.
Du Sheng appears in three out of five performances here.
This brings us to the box office appeal.
After all, at the end of the day, movies are a business.
Even if the films you make have won numerous awards, they may still be a niche genre.
But if you can make a lot of money, you will become a hot commodity and everyone will scramble for it.
So, when director Liu Wei Qiang's two films achieved success, he instantly became a super celebrity in the film industry.
Bosses from all walks of life lined up to invite him as their guest, wishing they could worship him every day.
Similarly, a lot of people also wanted to invite Du Sheng to have a meal together.
But he was extremely busy and couldn't spare the time.
If you want to see him, you have to wait until at least after the K1 Fighting Finals.
On the contrary, the box office of another Huayi blockbuster "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" has been halved since the National Day.
Even the highly anticipated overseas box office was only $500 million.
And what was the original plan?
2000 million dollars!
It can be said that the investors were badly cheated by Huayi.
Even Huayi, which recently experienced a box office Waterloo and was exposed online due to the backlash of the "plagiarism storm", is also suffering.
It is said that Wang Zhongjun is preparing to sell off his collection of antiques to overcome the current crisis.
Otherwise, if this continues, we will really become a laughing stock.
