Film and Television World Life Record

If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening!

To enjoy such beautiful love and meet such a wonderful person at the end of one's life is enough.

"It's just that... I can't give him a long-term commitment, and I can't be there for his future."

"Perhaps, he will be very sad on the day he learns the truth, on the day she passes away!"

"Ye Lanqiu knows that what she's doing is selfish and irresponsible, and that her eventual departure will definitely be a major blow to Li Mu. But she can't control it now, so let her be selfish this once!"

"Before I die, I want to experience a sweet and passionate love."

Lost in her own thoughts, Ye Lanqiu soon fell into a sweet sleep, sleeping peacefully with a faint smile on her lips, lost in some beautiful dream.

After leaving the hotel, Li Mu went to a well-known local private detective agency.

I sent them a few photos.

"Just these few people, investigate them thoroughly."

The person in charge had seen the morning news, picked up the photo and looked at it; it looked quite familiar.

"No problem, our prices aren't cheap."

Li Mu took out another card and threw it over.

"Money is not a problem, as long as it's fast and we can find out the real deal."

The person in charge quickly put away the bank card: "No problem, you can rest assured that you've left it to us."

……

Meanwhile, Chen Ruoxi, along with Yang Jiaqi and another reporter, arrived at the high school where Ye Lanqiu attended.

They interviewed her former homeroom teacher.

The homeroom teacher, Ms. Zhang, said, "Yes...you are right, this is a lack of education. Nowadays, children are surrounded by six people—grandparents, parents, and others—who indulge them without restraint. Naturally, the children become self-centered and have no sense of social responsibility."

Teacher Zhang stopped speaking when she saw Chen Ruoxi frown. This was a big-name reporter from the city, a powerful figure in public opinion. The principal had repeatedly told them to cooperate fully and not to offend her.

"Reporter, am I wrong? What do you want me to say?"

Chen Ruoxi stepped forward and said, "Um, Teacher Zhang, it's like this. Because this episode of our program is mainly about Ye Lanqiu's matter, and you're not her homeroom teacher, right?"

"And you! Talk to me more about her, what she's like usually, whether she has any conflicts with her classmates, whether she's done anything out of line?"

Teacher Zhang frowned: "Well, I watched your program this morning, and I was quite surprised too. Ye Lanqiu wasn't like this before..."

Chen Ruoxi interrupted, "Teacher Zhang, let's not talk about this. Our main job as reporters is to uncover problems. Wasn't there any indication that Ye Lanqiu was capable of such behavior before, at school?"

Teacher Zhang opened her mouth, looking a little embarrassed, unsure of what to say.

Chen Ruoxi's expression was not good, and she spoke again: "I heard that Ye Lanqiu used to be a very good student and got into a prestigious university. She was the pride of your school. What do you think about this?"

Teacher Zhang is an adult; how could she not know what the other party wanted to hear! Remembering the principal's request, she was determined to fully cooperate.

He hesitated for a moment before saying, "That's how it used to be, but don't worry, it won't be like this anymore. This is our shame."

Chen Ruoxi was extremely disappointed. She hadn't managed to dig up any dark history. The things Teacher Zhang said didn't really have much to attract attention.

It seems difficult to get anything out of the school!

……

They interviewed several more teachers, but still found nothing of substance, as if Ye Lanqiu had no scandals at all during her middle school years. Chen Ruoxi was extremely disappointed.

However, looking at the footage shot at school, there's quite a bit. With so much footage, a little editing should achieve a decent result; she's a professional in this area.

Chen Ruoxi could only hope that the reporter who went to interview the other party involved, Grandpa Wang, would get better results.

Otherwise, it's hard to guarantee the continued popularity, and how can you drive traffic to your own website?

Her wish came true. Old Wang watched the TV program and felt very relieved and proud. Unfortunately, Li Mu was not in it, which disappointed him.

He hated Li Mu more than Ye Lanqiu.

He was overjoyed when he heard that a reporter was interviewing him.

"Comrades, I'm telling you, besides that girl in sunglasses, there's someone even worse. That young man is utterly wicked; you must report on him properly and teach him a lesson."

The reporter gave an awkward laugh: "Uncle Wang, today we'll only talk about Sister Sunglasses, nothing else."

Grandpa Wang was a little disappointed, but he also grew to hate the woman in sunglasses.

He immediately turned his gun on her, saying arrogantly, "Tell me, tell me, at my age, is it easy for me to take the bus?"

"Fine, I'll accept it if she won't let me sit down, I'll just consider it as me giving her my seat. But she still dared to harass me. I'm so old, and she still dared to harass me, telling me she wanted to sit on her lap."

"What kind of talk is this? What do you take me for? A customer of a prostitute?"

"Oh, by the way, I heard she's a mistress. Am I right? This kind of woman, no matter how pretty she is, doesn't look like a good person at all. She's definitely a vixen."

“A woman with such poor manners dares to flirt with me. I must act uprightly and honestly.”

……

Then came a torrent of spittle flying everywhere, followed by another round of insults.

Grandpa Wang enjoyed his rant, and the reporter enjoyed the interview. Some of his outrageous remarks obviously couldn't be shown on TV, but with proper editing, it would definitely be a high-quality interview video.

It wasn't just this one reporter; Grandpa Wang was a hot topic, and other reporters noticed and flocked over.

After one round of interviews, Grandpa Wang became famous.

Not only at the school and at Grandpa Wang's place, Chen Ruoxi and her team members then went to the streets to interview passersby and the general public.

If we come across some suitable shots, we save them as news material and include them in a special report on the issue of not giving up seats. This not only represents the public opinion but also helps maintain public interest.

Chapter 248 Argument

After accompanying Chen Ruoxi to the school for an interview with Ye Lanqiu's apology video, Yang Jiaqi returned to the program production center.

After listening to Li Mu's words, and based on her understanding of Chen Ruoxi, Yang Jiaqi knew that the chances of her apology video being selected were extremely slim.

However, since I worked so hard to film it, I can't just give up. I still have to give it a try.

Taking advantage of a break in Chen Ruoxi's rest, Yang Jiaqi approached her with the video.

"Sister Xi, didn't you ask me to find a trending topic? This is an apology video that I specially commissioned Ye Lanqiu to film. If it can be made into a TV program, it will definitely be very popular."

Chen Ruoxi glanced at her: "Why did you ask her to record this?"

Yang Jiaqi said, "Isn't she trending? Netizens are holding their breath right now. I think if she records an apology video, it will definitely go viral!"

Chen Ruoxi banged on the table in exasperation.

"Yang Jiaqi, can't you use your brain? What we need is sustained popularity. Didn't you hear what the higher-ups said? We need to convert this popularity into website clicks and traffic into users."

"You hastily released an apology video to clarify the matter, but the anger of netizens and viewers has been vented. Who will still pay attention to this news? Where will the popularity come from?"

"Do you know why I'm doing so many interviews today? It's to generate buzz. This matter can't be left unresolved; it must be kept going to maintain the current level of attention and popularity."

Yang Jiaqi was a little dumbfounded; she hadn't expected there to be this hidden meaning.

"Sister Xi, let's keep this apology video for future reference and release it when the hype has died down."

Chen Ruoxi shook her head again: "Take it away, this video is unusable."

Yang Jiaqi asked anxiously, "Why? Sister Xi?"

Chen Ruoxi said, "Jiaqi, have you ever thought about how many people on the internet are obsessed with looks, especially male netizens?"

"Now Ye Lanqiu is beyond redemption, which is why so many netizens have joined the criticism. If Ye Lanqiu's apology video is released, things can be redeemed. Ye Lanqiu is so beautiful, those who only care about looks will instantly switch sides. The internet is never short of people who pity beautiful women."

"It's hard to say, public opinion could reverse, and those netizens who believe that good looks equal justice will try to whitewash Ye Lanqiu."

Yang Jiaqi said, "Isn't this a good thing? Ye Lanqiu is innocent. We've used her to create so much buzz, so it's good to clear her name now."

"Besides, if public opinion reverses, wouldn't it be good to generate buzz if we just seize the opportunity?"

Chen Ruoxi said earnestly, "Jiaqi, a certain reversal can indeed increase the popularity and benefit us, but if the reversal is too big, it will backfire."

"If Ye Lanqiu clears his name, the netizens who previously criticized him will definitely feel guilty and have a sense of compensation. They will look for the reasons behind the incident and try to understand the matter thoroughly."

"Don't underestimate the power of netizens. There were other passengers on the bus at the time. If the cause and effect of this matter are found out, Ye Lanqiu will be further cleared of her name, and some netizens may even feel sorry for her."

"Then the video that our TV station broadcasts will be in big trouble. Why was it edited like that? Netizens will definitely look for reasons and find someone to take responsibility. Who will take responsibility? Or will I?"

Yang Jiaqi was speechless and dared not say another word.

Chen Ruoxi patted her hand: "Little sister! We are the media, not Bao Zheng (a famous judge in Chinese history), don't get confused."

Yang Jiaqi immediately shut up, pushed up her glasses, and walked away silently.

Chen Ruoxi watched her retreating figure and gave a cold smile.

……

When Chen Ruoxi got home from get off work that evening, she turned on the TV and said to her boyfriend Yang Shoucheng, "Why are you home so early today?"

Yang Shoucheng said, "I quit my job, so of course I came back early! I even had to go to the police station after get off work, otherwise I would have come back even earlier."

Chen Ruoxi knew her boyfriend was satisfied with his current job and had been considering quitting for a while. So it wasn't surprising that he had quit; it didn't make much difference.

But I was curious about something else: "Why did you go to the police station?"

Yang Shoucheng said, "My phone was stolen yesterday! I took the thief to the police station, and today I went to question him again to verify some information."
