Chapter 930: You Fell in the Forest
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There were countless computers and phones in front of them. They kept switching between various accounts and cursing at the artists who were working with Sha Haimu.
Lin Luo was the first to bear the brunt. Next were s.h.i.+ Jin and Xu Ning.
“Scold, continue scolding.” The person in charge instructed everyone to continue causing trouble.
“s.h.i.+ Jin’s fans responded.”
“We’re not afraid of their response, we’re afraid they won’t respond!” the supervisor said. “Tear them apart! Where’s Lin Luo?”
!!
“Lin Luo’s fans have yet to join the battlefield.”
“Then tag Lin Luo’s name directly! Little w.a.n.g, switch to a few accounts and pretend to be Lin Luo’s fans to scold s.h.i.+ Jin. Little Li, change accounts and pretend to be s.h.i.+ Jin’s fans to scold Lin Luo!” The supervisor commanded calmly.
“But there’s no conflict between s.h.i.+ Jin and Lin Luo.”
“There’s no conflict, my foot. Didn’t s.h.i.+ Jin say in the lyrics that ‘you fell in the forest’? Say that she was scolding Lin Luo by name, cursing him to leave the entertainment industry, and cursing him to fall. Also, didn’t Lin Luo disguise as a woman in a drama? Don’t you know how to trample on s.h.i.+ Jin and say that Lin Luo’s female looks are even more fairy-like than s.h.i.+ Jin’s? Isn’t s.h.i.+ Jin ugly in front of Lin Luo?”
Upon receiving the news, these people quickly took action. Their expressions were haggard and their faces were pale. It was entirely because their group of fake reviewers liked to be active in the middle of the night. When there was no one around, they would step on them and cause trouble.
It was very appropriate to describe them as “ghost soldiers crossing the border”.
It could be said that when “Sea Flower” was broadcasted, no one cared about Sha Haimu at all. Lin Luo relied on his acting skills and character appearance to step out of the circle and obtain extremely good reviews.
Later, it was through the various operations of their water army team that they constantly stepped on, compared, helped Sha Haimu act pitiful, and redesigned his persona. Only then did Sha Haimu look like he was barely on par with Lin Luo’s popularity.
Lin Luo’s videos had a million views while Sha Haimu’s had only a hundred thousand. It didn’t matter. They would keep refres.h.i.+ng their server. They had to surpa.s.s Lin Luo.
Lin Luo had 300,000 likes, then they would give Sha Haimu 500,000.
Sha Haimu did not have enough videos? As long as they were paid, they would immediately ensure that he had more videos than Lin Luo.
Lin Luo’s fancount far surpa.s.sed Sha Haimu? They immediately registered new accounts to increase the number.
With all kinds of schemes, Sha Haimu accurately attracted a wave of fans, making it look even more prosperous.
The supervisor continued to give instructions. “Don’t forget ‘Travel All the Rivers and Mountains’. Click into Sha Haimu’s scenes and watch them on repeat with all the different accounts. Let the outside world see his popularity and traffic!”
“Also, Sha Haimu’s new jewelry endors.e.m.e.nt. Switch between accounts and buy them! Buy 10 million dollars worth! Then, remember to wait until the merchants publish a large report and praise Sha Haimu before immediately clicking on the refund.”
A few people were operating dozens of computers and hundreds of phones. Those who could use software to automatically scan their data would do so, and those who could not would manually switch between their accounts.
Using their labor to support the prosperity of Sha Haimu.
Just as everyone was working hard, the electric switch was turned off with a click.
Everyone complained. Then, the electricity came back, but the phones and computers all needed to be restarted.
After rebooting, before they could continue working, there was a knock on the door.
The supervisor was a little panicked. What they had done was all in the gray area, especially those who were slandering and spreading rumors. It had already exceeded the moral level and violated the law.
That was why they worked in such a slum and did not dare to open their company openly.
Hearing the sudden knock on the door, he did not dare to open it.
The knocking on the door became even more intense. “We’re from the relevant department to investigate. Quickly open the door!”
He had to open the door.
The moment the door opened, a group of people in uniforms surged in and flashed their work pa.s.ses. “We received a report that someone on your side has openly done something illegal. We need you to cooperate with our investigation now. All these computers and phones must be seized immediately.”
The supervisor and all the staff were taken away.
On the Internet, the netizens and fans who were denouncing the vile actions of these “fans” who spoke ill of them condemned. They realized that the other party had all gone offline and there was no more movement.
s.h.i.+ Jin’s and Lin Luo’s fans calmed down. After calming down and a.n.a.lyzing carefully, they realized that the people who started it were all haters in disguise as fans.
Then, the fans of the two sides reconciled and issued a statement together. They called on the fans to be rational when chasing celebrities and lead their own lives. They were not to be incited by the emotions on the Internet, nor were they to scold and hate each other.
Song Fan called Fu Xiuyuan to report the situation. “They’ve already been arrested and we have destroyed dozens of similar nests. These fake reviewers are not only taking over the matter of Sha Haimu, but they’re also the ones who took over many evil people on the Internet previously. Not only are they immoral, but they’ve also long been jumping around in the law.”
“Make sure they are severely punished,” Fu Xiuyuan replied indifferently.
“Understood.”
Song Fan had not known that professional fans would be so arrogant.
In the past, Master Fu had never meddled in s.h.i.+ Jin’s work, and he ignored the quarrels among the fans. However, it was obvious that Sha Haimu’s “fans” had gone overboard. It was no longer just about the fans.
This heavy blow was karma for Sha Haimu.
Overnight, nearly 90% of Sha Haimu’s professional fans had been removed.
The rest were basically professional fans who received money. It was not easy to deal with them for the time being, but they were no longer a problem.
After this batch of professional fans was dealt a blow, Sha Haimu’s data fault almost showed weakness overnight.
He had posted a business Weibo message in the morning with a single link. He had officially announced that he was endorsing hand cream.
Normally, after five minutes, there would be at least a million likes and more than a hundred thousand shares.
However, today after half an hour, the number of likes was only 70,000 to 80,000, and the number of shares was only 10,000 to 20,000. It was even inferior to an ordinary mid-level celebrity.
His fans were puzzled. “What’s going on? Hasn’t everyone woken up yet today?”
“It must be Weibo blocking our delicate wife again. Everyone is trying to prevent him from exploding! They’re deliberately preventing us from liking his posts!”
“It’s most likely s.h.i.+ Jin who spent money on Weibo to make our wife’s data look bad. Then, she can use this as an excuse to bully our wife!”
“That must be it!”
“Why hasn’t Lin Luo come out to protect your wife? Are you dead or crippled? Sc.u.mbag, can you be more responsible?!”
Sha Haimu immediately called his manager. “What’s going on with my data? Some fans are already suspicious.”
“I’ll rush them immediately.” The manager immediately contacted the various water army companies.
