Three Kingdoms: Start by marrying Cai Yan, then vie for supremacy.

26

What kind of energy lies behind the silence?

Why is Shanghai TV so protective of him?

"His true status is probably far greater than we imagine!"

"This comeback was absolutely brilliant!"

"If this was truly a secret scheme, this person's methods are extraordinary!"

"Can anyone reveal Mo's secrets? It's infuriating!"

……

Just as everyone was filled with doubt, an unexpected event suddenly revealed the truth.

"Mr. Mo, thank you so much for cooperating with me in this charade."

The director of Shanghai TV station said to Mo with a beaming smile.

A sly glint flashed in Mo's eyes as he smiled and replied, "You're too kind. It's just my duty."

I'll remember this favor.

"Really, there's no need!"

"I must thank you properly!"

"I hope you will continue to support the development of Junlin Entertainment in the future."

"Don't worry, I'll arrange for someone to handle the support plan right away!"

This conversation made everyone present realize that the director behind the whole show was actually the director of Shanghai TV station.

What a brilliant deception!

Only then did everyone realize that Mo had no special background; he was merely playing along. Previously, everyone had speculated that he was someone of extraordinary status, but little did they know...

In fact, Mo's true identity was indeed extraordinary, but due to the system's prohibition—strictly forbidding the exposure of his identity as an entertainment industry monitor—he had no choice but to conspire with the station director to stage this charade.

Following the inspection, the news quickly went viral online. Mo, Yang Mi, Linghua, and Junlin Entertainment once again became the focus of public attention. From then on, no one dared to use underhanded tactics to hinder Junlin Entertainment's development, although fair business competition was still inevitable.

Another topic of heated discussion is: Will Hua Chenyu be banned?

The answer came faster than expected.

Less than three days later, Shanghai TV's official website issued a stern announcement:

"An investigation has confirmed that singer Hua Chenyu has committed serious tax evasion!"

"The tax recovery process has now been completed."

"Given his status as a public figure and the egregious impact of his actions, the following penalties are imposed:"

"A one-year ban on all public appearances, variety show performances, music releases, and film/television appearances!"

川.

"May he sincerely repent."

"To serve as a warning to others!"

……

Hua Chenyu has been banned across the entire internet!

This news instantly went viral online!

The hashtag #HuaChenYuBanned# suddenly topped the Weibo hot search list, with its popularity far exceeding that of the second-place hashtag.

This clearly demonstrates the sensational effect this event has caused!

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

It should be noted that Hua Chenyu has been rampant in the entertainment industry for many years. Although he has made mistakes many times, there has always been someone to clean up his messes, and in the end, none of them have caused any real damage.

But things are different now.

This time, Hua Chenyu was actually completely blacklisted!

Could it be that he has completely lost power?

[Hua Chenyu has been banned!]

[Hua Chenyu's tax issues exposed!]

Can Hua Chenyu make a comeback?

Whom did Hua Chenyu offend?

……

Various related topics swept across Weibo, and any content involving the three words "Hua Chenyu" inevitably saw a surge in clicks.

Many bloggers are using this as an opportunity to gain attention and generate buzz.

"Has Hua Chenyu really been blacklisted?"

"Haha, I never thought he'd end up like this!"

"They led a group to suppress Mo, and then they themselves were eliminated. This is definitely not a simple matter!"

"It's definitely related to Mo!"

"Don't speculate. The leaders of Shanghai TV have already clarified that it was just a staged performance."

"I think so too. Mo doesn't have that kind of ability; it's clearly Hua Chenyu who offended the higher-ups!"

Netizens are discussing this on Weibo:

"Just wait and see, Hua Chenyu is probably begging everywhere for help, trying to find a way to lift the ban."

"It might actually work out; he has powerful backers."

......

As netizens predicted, Hua Chenyu, the person involved, is currently humbly seeking help everywhere.

"Sister Li, please help me!" Hua Chenyu called, her voice trembling with tears.

To everyone's surprise, the other party immediately launched into a tirade: "Hua Chenyu, have you lost your mind? You've been blacklisted by Shanghai TV, and you're still coming to me?"

"Do you want me to be blacklisted too?"

"If you're going to talk to someone, talk to the CEO of Le Shen Entertainment. Only he can get in touch with Shanghai TV!"

Hua Chenyu stammered, "But Sister Li..." Remembering how she had clashed with the chairman of Le Shen Entertainment before, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Sister Li sneered, "What? Feeling ashamed?"

"Hua Chenyu, you're already blacklisted, what face do you still have to save?"

That's all I have to say. The rest is up to you!

The phone was abruptly hung up.

"**!" Hua Chenyu slammed his phone down in a rage. "You were so good to me before, and now you're turning your back on me! Wait until I make a comeback, and I'll see how I deal with you!"

After calming down for a moment, he still picked up his phone and dialed the number of the chairman of Le Shen.

Surprisingly, the other party answered the phone.

"Chairman, I am Hua Chenyu."

"Oh, it's Huahua! What's up?"

"Regarding the ban... could you please put in a good word for me?" Hua Chenyu hurriedly explained, "I've taken care of all the tax issues. As long as the higher-ups don't pursue it, and with some public relations work, there should still be a chance..."

His plan was brilliant, but the most crucial thing was to get Shanghai TV to back down.

A few soft laughs came from the other end of the phone. Chairman Le Shen thought to himself: This kid has a good plan.

Why should he get such a good deal? If we can really persuade Shanghai TV, we might as well save this favor for when we need it.

Why give such a precious opportunity to Hua Chenyu?

Does he deserve it?

"Huahua, do you remember when the senior executives of Shanghai TV asked for your opinion, and I politely declined on your behalf?" the chairman of Le Shen Entertainment said in a deep voice.

Hua Chenyu's heart tightened, and she answered stiffly, "I remember."

The chairman said solemnly, "It's good that you remember. It was for your own good at the time. With your qualifications, you had no right to speak in that situation."

"He overstepped his bounds, broke the rules in a place where he shouldn't have, and got caught red-handed!"

"Huahua, how can I help you?"

Hua Chenyu hurriedly explained, "Chairman, we only need—"

"No need for further words. I still need to assist Shanghai TV in investigating Brilliant Entertainment's affairs, so let's leave it at that."

"If you are ever blacklisted in the future, feel free to visit Le Shen whenever you have time. You're always welcome here."

beep--

The phone call was abruptly ended.

In a fit of rage, Hua Chenyu smashed the phone to pieces again!

To this day, he still mistakenly believes that the ban was orchestrated by the higher-ups at Shanghai TV, unaware that the real mastermind behind it all is Mo!

As the entertainment industry's watchdog, Mo has the right to interfere in any matter within the industry. If he wants to blacklist Hua Chenyu, who in the entire industry dares to oppose him?

Desperate, Hua Chenyu sought help everywhere but repeatedly met with setbacks. In the end, her father stepped in and donated a huge sum of money to Shanghai TV to get a slight relaxation of the ban order—and this was on the premise of tacit consent; otherwise, Shanghai TV would never have dared to give in.

Although the ban has not been lifted, the restrictions on Hua Chenyu's public appearances have been relaxed, only prohibiting her from participating in singing and variety show activities.

This compromise stemmed from Mo's careful consideration: Hua Chenyu, as a villainous character, was quite valuable and could always trigger system tasks. If she were completely banned, it would be difficult to find such a suitable tool again.

Since he has already been deprived of the opportunity to perform on stage, it's fine to keep him around to continue playing a role.

Subsequently, Hua Chenyu posted a sincere apology statement on Weibo:

To our online community:

I am Hua Chenyu, and I sincerely apologize for occupying public resources. I do have many shortcomings, but I have deeply reflected on them and am determined to correct them!

"From now on, I will turn over a new leaf and become a law-abiding citizen!"

……

A lengthy apology letter of several thousand words was promptly written on the page.

It seems Hua Chenyu is truly afraid this time!

But what's the use of an apology now?

It's nothing more than trying to salvage a little image.

Many of Hua Chenyu's most ardent fans felt disheartened upon seeing him in such a disheveled state.

The opponent is too strong!

They were completely powerless to fight back!

We have no choice but to accept our fate.

……

"Hua Chenyu actually bowed her head!"

"Hilarious! Even the usually arrogant Hua Chenyu has moments of backing down!"

"What else can he do if he doesn't back down?"

"Faced with absolute power, Hua Chenyu is not even as good as an ant!"

"That's right, they act all high and mighty all day, but they're nothing special!"

"That depends on who you're comparing yourself to!"

"Above Hua Chenyu is the chairman of Le Shen Entertainment, above the chairman is the minister of Shanghai TV, and above the minister is a high-ranking official at Shanghai TV. The gap between Hua Chenyu and these high-ranking officials is enormous!"

"I heard there's a mysterious inspector above the top leader, but nobody knows who he is, and there's not a whisper of him!"

"An inspector? Isn't that someone even more powerful than the top leader?"

"Of course, even high-ranking leaders have to be extremely respectful to the inspector!"

"I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to meet such an important person in my lifetime!"

Stop dreaming! You'd be better off listening to Phoenix Myth's songs!

"I'm listening to it now, 'Landscape Painting' and 'Underwater Scene' are absolutely amazing!"

"Good job singing silently, keep it up!"

"However, Mo is just an ordinary singer. Compared to that inspector, he is still far inferior."

……

Hua Chenyu's apology letter has once again sparked heated discussions online.

Since Mo became the entertainment industry inspector, the system has created this position and person for this world. Netizens have heard of the inspector, but they don't know his true identity.

They could never have imagined that the high-ranking inspector was none other than Mo, the "ordinary singer" in their eyes.

If Mo's true identity were to be revealed one day, everyone would be shocked!

After Shanghai TV issued a ban, Hua Chenyu was immediately surrounded by enemies.

Major partner brands came to his door demanding compensation, and industry insiders estimate that all the compensation money has emptied his savings of many years.

If it weren't for his father's strong support, this incident would have been enough to ruin him forever.

"All my hard work over the past ten years has been for nothing!" Hua Chenyu hysterically smashed her wine glass in her apartment.

With his account wiped clean and all his endorsements lost, a top superstar was reduced to a disgraced celebrity in the blink of an eye.

The ban and the exorbitant breach of contract penalty were like two heavy blows, knocking him straight from the top into the mire.

Although it hasn't reached the point of completely retiring from the scene, it's clear to everyone that this star has already fallen.

Meanwhile, the "I Am a Singer" program team released a new announcement:

"Due to unforeseen circumstances, our competition contract with Mr. Hua Chenyu has been terminated."

"The second episode will feature a brand new replacement singer, which we believe will bring a surprise to the audience."

"The competition format has been upgraded: the bottom-ranked singer will be eliminated each episode, significantly increasing the intensity of the competition!"

The humorous ending to the announcement was particularly striking: "Welcome back to the stage, Mr. Hua, as an audience member."

This statement instantly sparked heated discussions across the internet:

"The production team's move was ruthless!"

"Who would dare use a celebrity with a bad reputation these days? They'd be asking for it!"

"Letting top-tier singers be the audience? That's utterly despicable!"

"I'd rather retire from the entertainment industry than endure this kind of humiliation!"

"That's enough! Hua Chenyu has already forced the rules of 'I Am a Singer' to be changed. He should be satisfied now!"

……

Netizens are discussing it extensively, and they all feel that Hua Chenyu definitely won't agree.

But no one expected that Hua Chenyu's reaction would be completely unexpected!

He actually replied to "I Am a Singer" and even agreed to participate as an ordinary audience member!

What kind of operation is this?

Saturday night is the day the second episode of "I Am a Singer" airs, and then we'll see what Hua Chenyu is really up to!

Netizens are full of anticipation.
