Hexagonal God

Chapter 311 He is the mastermind
There is truth in these two old sayings: a tall tree attracts the wind, and the bird that sticks its head out gets shot.

Su Mo is certainly smart, but his opponents are not stupid either. Waves of counterattacks have begun to build momentum.

Their focus in criticizing Su Mo has shifted from killing foreign police officers to the group of internet celebrities.

Because the threshold for joining this group is low, the quality is inevitably mixed, so it is easy to find some problems.

Under Professor Yang's article, some people have already contacted Capital Taxation, Magic City Taxation, Chengdu Taxation and other places, asking them to investigate Su Tang Entertainment's tax evasion.

Of course, taxation is not so easy to be manipulated, but if this trend gradually takes shape or even intensifies, it may be possible to investigate in accordance with public opinion.

In addition to the issue of tax evasion, there is also the theory that internet celebrities are useless.

In addition to ordinary internet celebrities, the main target of attack is Su Mo, the biggest internet celebrity, and the scope of attack is quite wide.

The article explains that internet celebrities are a negative phenomenon, taking some small internet celebrities as examples, and then dragging Su Tang Entertainment into the mix.

As for Su Mo himself, he spared no effort in attacking him, wishing he could beat Su Mo to death with a stick.

The final conclusion is that Su Mo is not a good person. He is cruel and greedy. He has no substantial contribution to society and is not good in every aspect.

It's very troublesome to explain and debate about this kind of thing, and he still hopes that Su Mo will respond to him, so that he will have the opportunity to say his subsequent words and make the heat rise.

It’s not right to respond, and it’s not right not to respond either. This is what they are planning.

Tang Tang and Zhang Weina thought Su Mo didn't know about this, but in fact Su Mo already knew about it.

Liu Nian did not join the cheerleading team this time. She became Su Mo's temporary agent, so naturally she had to care about everything about Su Mo. She had already called Su Mo about this matter.

Su Mo glanced at the article and put it down.

Don't worry, let them stay dark for now.

The trend created by this incident has just started, and it would seem so naive to explain it now.

Moreover, Su Mo is very confident now. His current number of fans cannot be easily shaken.

The day before yesterday, Dahui, Naonao, and administrator Lemon had already talked to him. His Weibo management team has expanded to more than 300 group chats, with loyal fans all over the country, and the number is still increasing rapidly.

This scale is already equivalent to those of first-line entertainment stars, and the potential is even greater than that of entertainment stars.

It is impossible to slander Su Mo on his main Weibo account, as the defense there is already impregnable.

So Su Mo was not worried at all. He just wanted to play the basketball game well first and not suffer any setbacks.

After all, he had to win gold medals in the three events he participated in, which involved a special contracting scroll.

Although Su Mo still doesn't know where this scroll can be used, the things the system produces are not junk, so it might be of great use.

In a villa in the capital.

Two people are looking at a computer screen.

One of them was Gao Xiaosong, and the other was a young man in his thirties.

Gao Xiaosong sat next to him, and the young man sat in the main seat, and his status was obviously higher.

The young man looked at the computer and frowned slightly.

He switched back and forth on Weibo, first looking at Su Mo's Weibo. Just as someone came out to criticize Su Mo, he was quickly driven into autism by a barrage of criticism from countless people.

Or there simply isn't any splash. The posts at the top are all controlled by Su Mo's fans, and all of them are flattering. If you want to find an article that discredits Su Mo, you have to look 10 pages onwards.

Unable to hack into Su Mo’s Weibo, he looked at Professor Yang’s Weibo.

Professor Yang’s Weibo is a main battlefield, but now it is also being conquered by Su Mo’s fans.

Professor Yang's article did play a significant role and aroused the recognition of many passers-by fans, but Su Mo had too many fans.

These untrained passersby fans were obviously no match for Su Mo's fans. They spent a long time typing out a line of words, thinking they were well-reasoned, but unfortunately, they were defeated by the criticism in just two sentences.

For example, if you write one, two, three points and put out your arguments and supporting evidence, Su Mo's fans will come over and say, "How ugly are you to be so twisted that you want to criticize me, Su Shen?"

Or: "You're a piece of trash, you said Su Shen has no contribution to society, what contributions have you made?"

After all, with so many fans, you can't demand quality, and in debates, focusing on unreasonableness and personal attacks often has a miraculous effect.

So the people who were being criticized couldn't stand it anymore and stopped trying to reason, and the mutual criticism mode began.

In this kind of mutual criticism, they are obviously no match for Su Mo's fans.

The young man switched positions and came to Gao Xiaosong's Weibo, where the situation was similar.

Gao Xiaosong also has a lot of fans, but they are not on the same level as Su Mo's fans. They have been losing ground frequently and can no longer hold on.

Unconvinced, he went to other forums and found the situation there was even worse than on Weibo. Su Mo's fans were practically everywhere, and the supporters and opponents were roughly evenly split 80-20.

Seeing this, the young man angrily threw his mouse down.

"This Su Mo is quite difficult to deal with. There are so many people defending him now. We have caused quite a stir, but we still can't do anything to him."

Gao Xiaosong pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose and said, "Boss Yang, you don't know how many fans Su Mo has now. He has 300 million fans worldwide and over 100 million in China, which is more than the most popular entertainment star. We have done well to get a group of people to support us."

Mr. Yang's face turned grim. "No, this is not the effect I want at all. If we keep doing this, we won't even be able to touch a single hair. You need to think of another way."

Gao Xiaosong began to analyze rationally.

"Mr. Yang, first of all, Su Mo certainly wouldn't have guessed that you were the driving force behind this incident, because your first move was to say that Yujia Media was evading taxes. This was a rumor. If they wanted to investigate Su Mo, they would definitely investigate Yujia Media first. In the eyes of others, you are also a victim, so Su Mo wouldn't suspect you."

Mr. Yang is Yang Zi, the former boss of Yujia.

Among those who hate Su Mo the most, Yang Zi and Ma Dagang are almost on par.

Ma Dagang had been planning for many years to acquire four floors of the IFC Building, but Su Mo's intervention ruined everything.

Yang Zi worked hard to build the Yujia Media Guild, but was defeated by Su Mo in a network war and a battle of money and gold. Since then, Yujia has never recovered.

As for the news that Yujia evaded more than 100 million yuan in taxes, it is completely false. The Internet at that time was not as popular as it is today. It took less than a year from the establishment of Yujia to its collapse, and the total turnover was less than 100 million yuan. Where did the tax evasion amount of more than 100 million yuan come from?

There was a case of tax evasion, but it was only a few million, and he had already paid the arrears before deciding to deal with Su Mo. He just leaked the news on purpose to attract the tax authorities to investigate.

He judged others by his own experience and concluded that Su Mo's Su Tang Entertainment must have also evaded taxes. He hoped that the tax authorities would investigate him and find nothing wrong before investigating Su Tang.

So this matter was planned by him, and Gao Xiaosong is now his partner.

Professor Yang of Economics was just someone he paid for.

Hearing Gao Xiaosong say this, Yang Zi nodded, feeling a little proud.

But his pride was only for a moment, and he was still distressed: "I also know that Su Mo can't suspect me, but it's useless. I still can't do anything to him."

Gao Xiaosong smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Yang. Since Su Mo doesn't suspect you, can we make things bigger?"

"What else can we do? Lao Yang almost lost all his hair writing this article. Su Mo really doesn't have many black spots. He was already recognized as a hero in the Myanmar incident, so there's no point in doing anything about this black spot."

Gao Xiaosong shook his head. "No need to look for more. The existing black spots are almost gone. What we need now is to build momentum. These casual fans can't cause much trouble at the moment. We can hire a cyber army."

"Merchant navy?"

"That's right. As long as you spend a little money, you can get some online trolls to come on board. These people may not be good at other things, but they are very good at black people. One person will post something, and then others will follow up with likes and thumbs-up, pushing the post to the top of the trending topics, and then attracting the attention of passers-by."

Yang Zi thought for a moment and asked, "Can all forums be used?"

"Of course, the Internet trolls have a large number of accounts in any forum. As long as we are willing to spend money, they can discredit Su Mo in any field."

Yang Zi tapped the table lightly with his fingers: "How much does it cost?"

"It shouldn't be too much, a few million or at most over ten million will be enough."

Yang Zi's expression relaxed a bit. "If this is all it takes, then I have no problem with that, but we also have to follow up with follow-up measures."

Gao Xiaosong nodded: "What are Mr. Yang's subsequent plans?"

"Let's destroy Su Mo and bring down Su Tang Entertainment. It would be best if this guild goes bankrupt, and then Yujia Media will take over. I want to get back everything I lost at Su Mo's hands."

Gao Xiaosong gave a thumbs up and said, "What a great idea! It's a perfect opportunity to stir up trouble and get the tax authorities to take action. They'll find out that Su Mo's Su Tang is full of loopholes, while your Yu Jia is fine. His guild is in trouble and can't continue to operate. It's just right for you, Mr. Yang, to take over."

Yang Zi nodded with satisfaction.

He has been working with Yujia for some time and knows that this industry has a promising future.

But Su Tang is not easy to deal with now. He is already the industry leader, like a huge mountain standing there. Moreover, Su Mo is very rich and pays the anchors the highest salary in the industry. It is almost impossible for others to compete with him.

If the boss engages in a price war with Su Mo, he will first have to lose money, and in a battle of this level, even someone with a net worth of over ten billion can easily lose everything.

Therefore, if you want to get rid of Su Tang Entertainment, official intervention is necessary.

Su Mo has a considerable background, so he needs to build momentum to get the authorities to intervene.

Only when there are enough people who dislike Su Mo and cannot stand him will the authorities be put under pressure to investigate Su Tang.

But Su Mo’s more than 100 million domestic fans are another problem.

Yang Zi didn't think it would be so difficult at first. Now he is in a difficult situation. Hiring water army is illegal, but he has to do it.
