The live broadcast was for the vast audience of Huaxia. Dozens of large and medium-sized websites were broadcasting it in real time. Hundreds of media reporters from all over the country were present. It was quite a grand occasion.
The trainees didn't expect Su Ruowan to be so thick-skinned and continue to participate in the competition under such great pressure.
Song Wenye looked at the others with an "I knew it" expression.
Ji Jingyan's expression was complicated. "Very courageous."
If it were her, she would have found a hole to hide in. She wouldn't have the face to appear in front of the public. It had to be said that Su Ruowan did well in this aspect.
Tong Kejun agreed. "I think if you want to enter the entertainment industry, you have to be so shameless."
She had never spoken so harshly. She really felt that Su Ruowan's skin was thick enough. She really admired her. The saying that shameless people were invincible was true.
"F * ck f * ck f * ck f * ck f * ck!" Han Yan cursed several times. Finally, he looked at Su Ruowan, who was holding a press conference and answering the reporters' questions on his phone screen and vomited. "Yue!"
Liu Qianyu and Guan Rou also looked at her with disdain. They had lived long enough to meet such a person. However, if she played like this, she might rebound and take advantage of the situation to rise up.
She was really shameless. A plagiarist had the face to say such things. If she really regretted it, she should commit suicide in front of the public to apologize to the world.
Ye Weiyang, who had always been the most amiable, also frowned. In her opinion, she could tolerate anything, but plagiarizing and stealing other people's work was extremely bad.
The last bit of admiration she had for Su Ruowan disappeared the moment she found out that she had plagiarized. Comparing herself to such a person was an insult.
The other trainees also watched the press conference after the competition. There was absolutely no sympathy. Who would sympathize with their competitors? There was only disgust and schadenfreude.
However, they were all deeply moved by He Lu's misfortune and Han Yan's luck.
He Lu was originally ranked eighth before Han Yan. Now that Su Ruowan was involved in such a scandal, even if she insisted on not withdrawing from the competition, she would definitely not be able to make a name for herself. Who could replace He Lu, who was ranked eighth?
However, something happened to He Lu. She broke her leg, withdrew from the competition, and was hospitalized. It could only be said that she was unlucky. It was such a pity.
On the other hand, Han Yan was definitely the luckiest one. She was originally in ninth place, but because of He Lu's accident, she was promoted by one place and was now in eighth place. After Su Ruowan was eliminated, she was promoted by another place and was now in seventh place. She was simply the Child of Fortune!
At this time, He Lu's hand was clenching her phone so hard that it was about to bleed. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her expression was hideous and twisted. She looked like an evil spirit as she stared at Su Ruowan through the screen. She was so regretful that her intestines turned green and she vomited blood.
Why did she bother to scheme against Su Ruowan? Even if she didn't do anything, she could have won without doing anything. However, she had done it. She had sacrificed herself and helped Han Yan succeed!
Su Ruowan's press conference caused a huge commotion. Many people who didn't pay attention to the competition and didn't know Su Ruowan were now aware of her existence. She relied on the scandal to completely leave the industry.
The comments online weren't just scolding her for being shameless and telling her to get out of the entertainment industry. Under Tianheng Entertainment's strong control of public opinion, many marketing accounts and paid posters flooded into all the major web portals and forums and started to purposefully guide the direction of the public opinion.
Su Ruowan knew her mistakes and corrected them. She was young and insensible. She made mistakes, took the wrong path, and made the wrong choice. The topic of her being too eager for quick success and instant benefits began to spread. The direction of public opinion began to change.
Su Ruowan's fans also started to systematically whitewash her. They said that she was good at dancing, singing, and was a kind person. It was just a moment of folly that led her to take the wrong path. In this life, who could guarantee that they wouldn't make any mistakes?
The marketing accounts also took the opportunity to confuse the public. They dug out the topic of other singers, movies, and TV series who had plagiarized. Once again, they dragged everyone down with them. They reminded everyone not to be so harsh on Su Ruowan. Look at the singers and actors they liked. How many of them had plagiarized or acted in plagiarized TV series and movies?
This method of controlling public opinion was indeed well-executed. The netizens all had a herd mentality. Gradually, some people started to feel that this was really the case. The scales in their hearts started to tilt towards Su Ruowan's side.
In the comments, many netizens had already expressed their appreciation for Su Ruowan's determination and courage to correct her mistakes. They forgave her and asked her to continue working hard. They would monitor her and watch her closely.
Song Wenye was scrolling through the comments. When she was on the phone with Shen Xi, she cursed, "F * ck! These morons' brains must have been eaten by maggots. They're trying to whitewash Su Ruowan!"
"Calm down." Shen Xi was also watching. She was a little impressed by Tianheng Entertainment's publicity department. As expected of a veteran entertainment company, they were really good at handling crisis public relations. They were really good at it.
Song Wenye growled angrily, "This is a great opportunity to destroy Su Ruowan. How can I calm down? The TV station said that they were discussing how to deal with Su Ruowan. I don't know if our company will intervene. "
The company would definitely not agree to let Su Ruowan, who had plagiarized, continue to participate in the competition.
"The investment company can't do that. It's up to the TV station to decide." Shen Xi had already received Yuan Yu's message. The TV station had already asked her how to deal with it.
Shen Xi's final answer was that they would not participate and would let the TV station handle it.
"F * cking TV station. If they let Su Ruowan continue to participate in the show, I will bomb them." After Song Wenye finished speaking, she cursed for a long time before hanging up the phone.
After the program ended, the TV station gathered all the leaders for an emergency meeting regarding Su Ruowan's plagiarism and discussed how to deal with the matter. Su Yi had used all his connections to put pressure on the TV station.
Under the competition of various forces, the TV station's leaders were pressured to the limit. They went to ask the investors for their opinion. In the end, Cosmos Entertainment did not care. They said that they would not interfere in this matter and would let them handle it.
In the end, the TV station decided to let Su Ruowan continue to participate in the show. They would cancel the score of the original music and her performance on stage. They posted on Weibo and replied to the public that they would give her a chance to turn over a new leaf based on her previous excellent performance.
The executive director, Su Botao, did not have any say in this matter. He insisted on creating original music and knew how hard it was to do so. He almost cursed on the spot and quit. However, the show was his blood, sweat, and tears. He could not give it up just like that.
Besides, he was no longer young and frivolous. He was at the age where he could think of more benefits and conflicts of interest. He could only hold back his tears.
The executive director also advised him that if Su Ruowan continued to participate in the show, she would definitely be criticized. However, even if she was criticized, she would be criticized for being thick-skinned and having a strong backing. They would not criticize the director. The director was just a guide, not a decision-maker.
When the mentors received the news, they did not know how to react. The TV station told them that Su Ruowan would continue to participate in the show and asked them to have a meeting the next morning.
The mentors acted almost at the same time and went out to look for Teacher Xixi.
