Inferior females become internet sensations across the entire galaxy

Chapter 107 Public Voting Details
The first to disagree with this criticism were the fans of ginger!
They know what they have done.

Campaigning for votes offline is legal and compliant; almost every composer's friends, family, and fans do this.

Therefore, it does not count as cheating.

Carl's accusation of cheating is vote-rigging, using illegal means to steal votes cast by other citizens' accounts, like a virus.

There are also some empty numbers.

For example, the account owner may have passed away, or the account may have been unused for a long time.

Tickets like these are considered cheating.

Just to be on the safe side, Wen Jiaqi still asked each fan in the group, "[You haven't done anything against the rules, have you?]"
[No, wouldn't that just bring trouble to Qinbao?]
[We don't need to do anything illegal, and Qinbao is quite capable; our Federation will likely vote for her.]
[Are you sure there isn't any? @Everyone]
Everyone in the group replied and joined in the chain.

After confirming that no one would do something so foolish, Wen Jiaqi said, "[Since no one has done that, let's just make it public and prove Qinbao's innocence.]"
[Um...but what if it was done by our rivals?]
It's not that they're conspiring; there are already so many people who resent Jiang Qin. What if those people do something in reverse?

For example, paying people on the dark web to generate fake votes, and then hiring online trolls to question the votes.

This public disclosure confirms the vote-rigging!

Wen Jiaqi also hesitated a bit.

No way?
[What should we do then? Should I contact the staff at Tianwen Entertainment and have them investigate?]
[You can go ask around and see what happens; Tianwen is still very protective of Qinbao.]
Actually, without anyone reminding her, Lan Yuyan had already sent someone to investigate.

Because once it is confirmed that the votes are fake, regardless of who bought them, Jiang Qin's score will be cleared.

He hired technicians before the vote to prevent vote rigging and framing.

However, to ensure everything went perfectly, he went to check it out again.

Since some people can fake tickets, others can secretly check tickets. Ordinary people may not have access to such people, but for the Lan family, it's quite easy.

He absolutely would not allow anyone to stop Jiang Qin, Tian Wen, or the Federation at such a critical moment.

They quickly replied with the results of their verification.

Lan Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief and immediately contacted Qi Yu, who was in the Empire at the time.

"We told the production team that we don't need a vote to decide whether to make it public; we're willing to make it public directly, but we ask everyone to do so together."

If you want to verify innocence, let's verify it together!
***
Soon, before the online voting was even over, the director announced the news and limited the voting to only ten contestants.

If the majority of votes are in favor of full disclosure, then full disclosure will be made.

If there are more dissenting votes, then the matter will no longer be questioned.

Without a doubt, all five imperial composers voted in favor.

Jiang Qin also voted in favor, so as not to be accused of having a guilty conscience.

If she's going to win, she wants to win cleanly and honestly.

If someone really rigged her votes so she could win, then she would accept that the result doesn't count.

Because that means that if no one helped her cheat, her original score should have been second.

The others also voted in favor.

They just wanted to watch the show; after all, the fire wouldn't affect them.

It passed with ten votes in favor.

The production team displayed the pre-prepared voting details on the big screen.

Those who raised doubts were immediately investigated.

Empire - Main Star, IP address: Central Street No. xx, Ms. Gu, Computer ID: 1xxx.

Empire—Main Star…

Federation—Azure Star…

Federation - Main Star…………

Each ticket can be traced back to its IP address and computer ID.

As you can see, many IPs originate from the StarNet Halls of various planetary cities.

These tickets are not illegal, so no one cares about this group of people.

What struck Karl most was that over 100 million Imperials voted for Jiang Qin!

In other words, without this group of people, Jiang Qin would not have been able to get first place at all!

This infuriated him, and he shouted at the camera from the audience, "What were those Imperials who voted for her thinking? Are you going to be the Federation's lackeys?"

"We've poured our hearts and souls into this place, striving for honor for the empire, and you're just dragging us down from behind!!"

"This is treasonous! You are traitors within the Empire!!"

The relentless questioning stirred a rebellious spirit in the people of the Empire, who had just seen the voting details and still felt somewhat guilty.

[It's just an entertainment program, why take it so seriously?]
[Hilarious! Why did I vote for Jiang Qin? Because her songs are good, while yours... ha, are all garbage!]
[When you're questioning others, why don't you reflect on yourselves?]
I believe I have personal freedom, and I can cast my vote for the people and things I love.
International relations are something the upper echelons measure. I'm just an ordinary citizen. What's wrong with liking the Federation's songs?
Is it illegal?
……

Karl was unaware that he had incurred public wrath; he was still consumed by anger.

However, the host dropped a bombshell the next moment.

"After investigation, only one of the ten contestants was found to have violated the rules regarding the number of votes."

After discussion, the judges decided to erase Mr. Carl's semi-final score, recording 0 points and 0 votes.

The whole place was in an uproar! ! !

"What? Mr. Carl's votes were rigged?"

"My God, is this a classic case of the thief crying 'Stop thief!'?"

"Impossible, right? Didn't Mr. Carl always get more votes than the other contestants in every episode he participated in before?"

"Guess where those tickets came from?"

"In other words, it is very likely that the number of votes he received each time he participated in the show was obtained through cheating."

So, no one questioned it before, and that's why no one noticed?

Not only were the viewers surprised, but even the guests and judges on the show found the result hard to believe.

Who would have thought that the person who first questioned others about vote rigging would end up rigging votes themselves!
What's even more puzzling is, didn't Carl know his votes were inflated? Why did he dare agree to publish everyone's vote details?

Jiang Qin was also surprised.

I never expected things to go so far as to become so out of control.

However, she guessed that Carl probably really didn't know, because the shock and despair in his eyes didn't seem like an act.

The reason is obvious if you think about it for a moment.

The Imperials' votes were united, which was good, but it was also bad because they were too united, resulting in almost the same number of votes for several composers who participated in the same program.

In this situation, the only way to stand out is through vote-rigging.

After all, they come from different companies and aren't really on the show for some kind of imperial honor.

They're here to make money, to create a cash cow!
Just look at Karl. He went from a newcomer to his current position and has brought countless profits to the company over the years.

Therefore, Jiang Qin guessed that it was very likely that the company behind him had carried out this operation behind his back.

He was unaware of the truth, which is why he was so confident.
