Chapter 96 Capital is also getting involved.
"This blogger is truly a gem!"
"I admit I became a fan because she's pretty, but now I realize she's also incredibly talented, wow!"
"What a young blogger! Did you just graduate high school? Will you come to our university?"
"Don't get your hopes up. I've met her. She participated in the independent enrollment selection test organized by the Beijing University Alliance and has already passed the candidate qualification. She will most likely go to Peking University."
"The entertainment industry is so dirty! These people look honest and simple, but they're all shrewder than devils!"
"So, is what the blogger said true and credible? Are there any friends from D University who can say something about it?"
"..."
Shen Jiayi's Weibo post has practically become the main discussion area for the "Backstabbing Cult" incident.
Whether they were fans of Yin Xiaotian, fans of the "Backstabbing Cult," or just passersby, everyone flocked here to watch the spectacle, argue and hurl insults, or offer rational analysis. The hype quickly reached a level that even the official Weibo account was envious of.
When it was time for dinner, Shen Jiayi's Weibo followers officially surpassed 800 million.
Among the many influential figures on Weibo, Shen Jiayi stands out as a unique and formidable presence.
The most crucial question is that she belongs to neither the entertainment industry, nor the academic world, nor the business world. She is just an ordinary college student who sang one GG song. How did she end up like this?
Many people are discussing behind the scenes how Shen Jiayi became so popular.
With 800 million active fans, who wouldn't be envious?
Moreover, this data will not be her final achievement.
"Let's go eat first."
"Hopefully, when we come back, you'll have over 1000 million followers."
Ye Kai pulled Shen Jiayi up from the computer and urged her to go eat dinner.
"It's so addictive!"
"I never imagined that watching my follower count skyrocket would be so addictive!"
Shen Jiayi reluctantly left the computer, her face still showing an expression of disbelief.
Who could have imagined that her followers would jump from over 150 million to 800 million in a single day, with the possibility of reaching 1000 million followers?
Keep in mind that she was just an 18-year-old college student.
The occupancy rate of the Swan Hotel is not very high, after all, it is a small city. However, in order to increase the hotel's revenue, they have specially launched a special promotion for the buffet dinner, where you can eat as much as you want for 199 yuan.
Because of the pleasant environment and abundant food options at the Swan Hotel, especially the excellent seafood and steak, young couples often flock there for the buffet in the evenings.
"Luckily, I got a spot in advance, otherwise it would have been really hard to find a place."
Ye Kai glanced at the almost full restaurant and said with some surprise.
Before Ye Kai and Shen Jiayi arrived, they called the catering department to reserve a table for them.
"I want to eat salmon, what do you want to eat?"
Shen Jiayi glanced at the food in the self-service area and quickly made a decision.
"I want noodles; their handmade noodles are pretty good. Then I'll just get some steak and have a simple meal."
Ye Kai wasn't very interested in seafood, but he was a huge fan of noodles. He would only consider eating seafood if there was no good noodles available.
As for steak and the like, it's just a necessary supplement that's good for your health.
To get noodles, they had to wait a while, so Ye Kai went to queue up and got a steak. He then sat down and chatted with Shen Jiayi while slowly eating.
"Buzzing—buzzing—"
Shen Jiayi's phone rang after she had only taken a few bites.
"An unfamiliar number."
She glanced down and then said to Ye Kai.
"Let me answer it for you."
Ye Kai reached out and took Shen Jiayi's phone, then pressed the call button.
"Excuse me, are you Ms. Shen Jiayi?"
"I am Yang Yifang, assistant manager of the legal department of Huayi Brothers Entertainment. I would like to discuss with Ms. Shen Jiayi the content of the Weibo posts you made today."
The other person was a man, and he immediately became very serious about confronting Shen Jiayi.
"You've dialed the wrong number. My surname isn't Shen, it's Ye. And I'm not a woman, I'm a man."
Upon hearing the other party's identity, Ye Kai immediately denied it.
"How could that be?"
"There's no way I could be mistaken. Excuse me, let me double-check."
The other party was stunned for a moment, and then hung up the phone.
A few seconds later, Shen Jiayi's phone rang again, from the same number as before.
You dialed the wrong number.
Before the other party could speak, Ye Kai spoke to him.
"I'm so sorry!"
"That's really strange. Weibo couldn't possibly have made a mistake like that, could they?"
The other person was talking to themselves on the other end of the line, and then hung up.
"What do Huayi Brothers want from me?"
"Are they also interested in those Weibo posts I made today? Ye Kai, why are you denying that this is my phone number?"
Although Shen Jiayi was young, she knew the status of Huayi Brothers in the entertainment industry. She looked at Ye Kai and asked with some confusion.
"That's not surprising."
"After all, most of the people in the 'Knife-Stabbing Cult' have their financial contracts with Huayi Brothers."
"Your Weibo posts had a significant impact on them, so naturally someone from Huayi Brothers had to intervene. Otherwise, the reputations of those individuals would have been severely damaged."
"However, although Huayi Brothers have a huge influence in the entertainment industry, they are nothing outside of it, so there is no need to pay any attention to them."
"I'll answer this call for you, so they won't be able to find your contact information and it'll save them trouble."
Ye Kai explained the inside story to Shen Jiayi.
"Weibo is so unreliable."
"It is extremely irresponsible to disclose someone's contact information without their consent."
After figuring out the ins and outs, Shen Jiayi began to complain about Weibo's unregulated management and lack of respect for customers' rights.
"Although this world is vast, upon closer examination, most of it is actually just a makeshift operation."
Even in the most well-regulated companies, there are bound to be unruly individuals.
Ye Kai replied with a smile.
The information he compiled for Shen Jiayi only analyzed the members of the "Knife-Stabbing Cult" and did not directly involve their behind-the-scenes management company, which can be considered as leaving room for maneuver.
Since Huayi Brothers actually stepped in to help them resolve the matter, Ye Kai no longer needed to give them face.
Ye Kai was thinking that after he finished eating, he would give his fans some more in-depth juicy gossip, letting them see what else might be revealed after the celebrity's true colors were peeled away.
Capital may sound intimidating, but under the current system in China, it is inherently vulnerable.
If they don't give in on this, they don't have any better means to fight back.
Simply hiring online trolls to cover up the truth is far less effective than directly silencing the person involved.
Unfortunately, Shen Jiayi is not in the entertainment industry and doesn't care about the consequences of telling the truth.
Faced with this situation, even Huayi Brothers, a powerhouse in the entertainment industry, felt at a loss.
"Damn it, I can't even find their contact information, what am I supposed to do?"
Yang Yifang, assistant manager of the legal department of Huayi Brothers, was completely dumbfounded at this moment.
