Chapter 1284: Zhang Ye, the busybody!
Translator: Legge Editor: Legge
And this was only the beginning!
On the same day, Han Di's "dirt" kept getting exposed. However, none of those accusations had any conclusive evidence and were just plain accusations!
The media was attacking Han Di with wave after wave!
People from the entertainment industry kept appearing one after another to condemn Han Di!
There was also a large troll army that appeared out of nowhere that started lashing out and cursing at Han Di on Weibo and the various forums. They all accused him of not caring for his child and the relationship with his wife in his bid to gain something out of this despicable act of accusing his own wife and boss at work. They were saying how he totally deserved it and how it was right that he was frozen!
The public was dumbfounded!
"How did it turn out like this?"
"Fucking hell!"
"Zhao Chipeng, you should be the one who deserves to die!"
"It wouldn't be enough even if he were to die 10,000 times over! He's too wicked! This man is simply too wicked!"
"There's Han Di's wife too. I finally know what they mean when they say that a married woman has the most toxic heart of all!"
"Dammit, I don't believe this! I don't believe that everyone has gone blind!"
"They didn't go blind, and know full well what is going on. Just look at who are the ones making the most serious accusations. They're all people who have connections with Zhao Chipeng. They're all people related to Tianfang Entertainment. Then look at the big name celebrities, which of them have spoken up? They've all chosen to keep their mouths shut since this is the best way of self-preservation. Han Di isn't some big shot anyway, so would there be any point in offending one of the greatest funders of the entertainment circle? Who would be that dumb! So of course they'd act aloof regarding this matter since it doesn't concern them directly. Even Han Di's two friends did not say a word!"
"Wang Zhe! Say something!"
"Li Duohai! Aren't you guys Han Di's friends?"
"Why aren't you two speaking up for him! Fuck!"
"What kinds of friends are they? Can you even call them friends!"
"The photos from before have all been deleted!"
"I posted something earlier that analyzed the evidence thus far. But dammit, all of it got deleted by the Weibo authorities the moment I posted them!"
"Mine too!"
"As long as it's related to Zhao Chipeng, it will be deleted!"
"They're deliberately misleading the public's opinion!"
"Many of the media outlets have been paid off to do so too!"
"Just look at the familiar scenes happening everywhere. It's obvious that this was done by them!"
For the entire day!
Han Di was getting scolded for the entire day by people in the industry!
However, Tianfang Entertainment's PR representatives had probably not expected that it was precisely because of these strong accusations that led to the people getting entirely outraged!
"What a bunch of bastards!"
"There are no good people in the entertainment circle!"
"My heart really aches for Han Di!"
"I wonder how he's coping."
"Can he accept this?"
"I don't know, I'm really anxious about him too!"
"This is too sudden. This is much too sudden!"
…
Old Chen's house.
Chen Guang smacked his hand against the table and said, "They've gone too far!"
Fan Wenli also looked frustrated. "Zhao Chipeng is behaving too lawlessly."
Chen Guang's agent, who was beside him, forced a smile and said, "But what can be done? I believe that when the paparazzi tabloid first posted those photos, they didn't expect that the person in the pictures would turn out to be Tianfang Entertainment's president. They were the ones who let the cat out of the bag, and now they want to recapture it. The people are really not going to have any of it."
Fan Wenli sighed. "Han Di has lost everything this time."
…
At Ning Lan's house.
The members of Spring Garden were here as well.
Feeling suffocated, Ning Lan said, "How can things be like this?"
Xiaodong said angrily, "That woman is really too vicious! She can change at the snap of a finger. When their child grows up and learns about this event, what will the child think? Doesn't she know how greatly this would affect the child? Are there even such mothers in this world?"
Ning Lan said, "She's doing this to protect herself."
Amy scolded, "Hell! Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs!"
Li Xiaoxian suddenly said, "Can we speak up for Han Di?"
Ning Lan shook her head. "How can we say anything? Your talent agency has a close working relationship with Tianfang Entertainment. Are you girls thinking of not continuing in this line of work? Or end up getting frozen too? Even if you three aren't afraid of the consequences, what about the staff around you? What about your fans? Don't forget that at our status and level, there are too many people who depend on us to make their living. Zhao Chipeng is one of the largest investors in the entertainment circle. Whoever offends him would not be able to survive long in this industry."
The four of them fell silent.
…
At an industry party.
"What do you guys think of this?"
"Hai, let's not talk about it."
"We can only pretend like we didn't see it."
"There's nothing that we can do about such matters. That's Zhao Chipeng we're talking about."
"Yeah, how many people in the industry would dare to go against him? There isn't anyone at all."
"But the people are in an uproar and it seems like they won't let it slide."
"So what? President Zhao does not depend on his popularity to make a living. He's just an investor who controls the funding. And besides, it's not like he would get hurt by a few harsh words from the people anyway. Would he care? Just look at how many people in the industry dare to say anything about this. Everyone can't wait to speak up for President Zhao and are taking the opportunity to cozy up to him."
"This is just what the entertainment circle is like."
"Han Di is done for."
…
The matter blew up even more!
It was getting more and more out of hand!
Meanwhile, the person at the center of it all still did not say a word!
Han Di's house.
His two-year-old child was wailing and asking for its mother.
Han Di's elder sister, who was also his agent, was also crying. "Insane! Those people are really insane! Little Di, can't you say something to address the situation? Talk to Sis!"
Han Di sat there in silence, looking at the wall in front of him.
It had been like this for the entire day!
Han Di did not utter a single word!
His sister said helplessly, "Little Di! Sis is begging you! Don't scare me like this!"
His wife's betrayal!
Zhao Chipeng's malice!
His friends' abandonment!
The media's slander!
The condemnation from the industry's people!
In the span of one night, he had lost everything!
Han Di was silent, sitting there like a statue.
Suddenly, the front door opened as Han Di's parents rushed in frantically. "Little Di!"
It was only now that Han Di's expression changed a little. He looked up at his parents as his tears fell freely. He asked, "Dad, Mom, is this the show business that I've always loved and looked forward to?"
His parents cried!
Han Di's mother and sister hugged him and couldn't stop crying!
…
On the same night.
At Old Wu's parents' courtyard house.
After dinner, Zhang Ye helped Li Qinqin with the dishwashing. When he was finished with the chores, he and Wu Zeqing strolled around the yard to aid their digestion.
Old Wu asked, "Have you seen the news?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "I did. No one cares about our wedding now."
Old Wu said, "What were you thinking at dinner?"
"Nothing." Zhang Ye blinked.
Old Wu giggled. "Do you think I don't know you?"
Zhang Ye smacked his lips and said, "Well, I was just thinking about how this situation felt really familiar. Have you forgotten? Back then, I was also suppressed by such public opinions a few times. It was a good thing that this bro's mouth is much more capable than those who accused me of things. It didn't matter how many people attacked me, I never got frightened. I ruled for so long and couldn't find an equal!"
Old Wu said, "Han Di is not as eloquent as you."
Zhang Ye sighed. "That something so big has happened and Han Di still hasn't opened his mouth to give an explanation or made any criticism yet, I really have to admit that I'm very impressed by him. I know that it's not that he doesn't want to speak up, nor that he doesn't know how to do so. It's simply because he knows he can't do that. That guy must be a good person."
"You're sure of it?"
Zhang Ye said, "Yes."
"Then what do you intend to do about it?"
Zhang Ye calmly answered, "You know that I'm a guy who loves being a busybody."
