Chapter 235 Is it really such a coincidence?
"Old Li, you are here."
As soon as he arrived at the Director's office, Bai Qirong put down what he was doing and greeted Director Li with a smile.
"sit."
Director Li didn't greet him and asked directly: "What's wrong? Call me up in such a hurry."
The smile on Bai Qirong's face slowly faded, and then he opened the tablet he had just closed again and handed the picture he had taken to Director Li in front of him to see.
"You have a look first."
Director Li took it with a suspicion, and after seeing the words of the netizens in the picture clearly, his movements stopped.
"This...Old Bai..."
After a pause, Director Li said helplessly: "If you do this in our industry, you will encounter this situation a lot. These netizens don't know about it, so they will guess randomly, and we can't do anything about it."
If your mouth is on them, it is impossible to block their mouths.
Although Director Li has been in the circle for many years, he actually doesn't know what to do when encountering such a thing.
Send a lawyer's letter?
Issuing a statement?
warn?
These things may be useful at that moment, but not long after, the effect will be less.
After all, gossip and guess are human nature, and even after being shocked, similar psychology will still arise again.
It is impossible to stop it. It is better to let it go. When the next new hot topic appears, no one will discuss this matter anymore.
Director Li felt that Bai Qirong's experience should have known these truths, but after thinking about it, it might be because the person discussed by netizens was Bai Manshu, his biological daughter, so he couldn't be so calm.
He had no choice but to persuade him again.
"It's okay, Lao Bai, this matter will be fine in two days. When I find the person behind me, Manshu will be able to recover his innocence."
But Bai Qirong's expression was not much better either.
He stared at the various slander of the netizens in the picture and said, "This group of people is becoming more and more distorted. Manshu is so obedient, how could he do such a thing!"
"and......."
Not knowing what he thought of, Bai Qirong's brows suddenly frowned even more violently.
"Old Li, what does Zuo You mean by your show? She deliberately said those words with strong incitement on the show. Did she deliberately try to pull Manshu into the water?"
Such a contestant with poor character actually took his anger on Director Li.
After all, Zuo You is a contestant in "The Strongest Question King". Shouldn't Director Li, as a director, check the situation and personality of these contestants before selecting them?
Moreover, before going on stage, most programs actually had scripts. Even if the puzzle competition programs like "The Strongest Question King" do not require contestants to create characters and memorize scripts, but what should be said and what should not be said when going on stage? Shouldn't Lao Li, as a director, explain clearly?
This is the most basic professional ethics of a director. Lao Li has been doing similar jobs for so many years and has such negligence.
Bai Qirong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with Director Li.
Director Li was stunned for a moment.
After so many years of his friend, he couldn't see what Bai Qirong was talking about.
But it is precisely because I see it that I am even more puzzled.
"No, Lao Bai, do you think I'm deliberately favoring Zuo You?"
Bai Qirong's expression of calm denial.
"I don't mean that."
Director Li took a deep breath and didn't want to argue with him at this critical moment. He only explained: "Zuo You would say that. Actually, I'm not surprised at all. Do you know how much grievances she suffered from this matter and how much she gave in?"
He knew that Bai Qirong was very busy at work and might not know these things, so he briefly explained a few words.
"If she hadn't offered to withdraw from the subsequent recordings, perhaps our programs and even the TV station might have been implicated. This would be a disaster for us, but for Zuo You, she endured it."
"Now we can confirm that the mastermind behind this is to prevent Zuo You from participating in the competition. The biggest possibility is that he is also one of the contestants. I don't think that it is impossible for Zuo You to say that at that time."
If it weren't for Director Li's special position, he actually wanted to call on that person directly.
Look, no matter how small tricks are used, the people who should come to participate in the competition can still come. Doing such things that cannot be put on the table. It is simply whimsical to try to defeat Zuo You!
After hearing these words, Bai Qirong was stunned for a moment.
It was at this moment that he had completely figured out the whole story. It turned out that someone sent an email to threaten Zuo You.
but.
"What's going on with the content of the email?"
And, how did he remember.
"Isn't your email address not published to the public? Is the only one that the outside world knows about is your assistant's email address?"
Director Li rolled his eyes: "That person is so capable of hiding IP, how difficult is it to get my email address."
Therefore, Director Lee never took this matter to heart.
But Bai Qirong remembered something again.
"If I remember correctly the party with the Zuo family you mentioned, there were not many people invited at that time. Have you checked the people you were invited?"
At that time, it was actually a small party. In order to attract investment, the TV station specially contacted several famous wealthy businessmen and entertainment companies in the province, as well as the leaders and well-known directors of the TV station, as well as the families they brought, and the total number of 30 people may be about 30 people.
Director Lee paused.
"But judging by the identities of those people, it is impossible for them to do such a thing."
They are all famous people. Who would do such despicable things for a competition quota? It would be shameless if it spreads out.
"But you cannot deny that the person who could take the photo of you shaking hands with Mr. Zuo was one of the guests at that time."
Director Li was silent when he heard this.
He hasn't thought about this matter during this period.
but.
"Since I guessed this way, I think the family members I brought in at that time were more likely."
After all, those formally invited guests can't think of the purpose of doing this no matter how they think about it. As for the guests, there are those who are similar to Zuoyou, and they might deliberately mess with Zuoyou.
Seeing that he had an idea, Bai Qirong said, "In short, you'd better investigate this matter yourself and give the answer quickly, otherwise there will be too many rumors on the Internet and the negative impact will be very troublesome."
Although he said this, Director Li knew that he was more worried about Bai Manshu.
But after all, it was the little girl he watched as he grew up, so he also hoped to clarify this matter as soon as possible.
So in the end, Director Li said something and realized it, so he turned around and left Bai Qirong's office.
As soon as he left the door, he immediately asked someone to check the list of guests at the banquet at that time, and even the families brought by the guests were not missing.
If the surveillance video at that time could be found, perhaps the location of the photographer could be speculated from the shooting angle of that photo, so as to find that person.
Just as he sent the news to the assistant, Director Li suddenly stopped in his footsteps.
He looked shocked suddenly, and an incredible thought flashed through his mind.
He remembered that Bai Manshu, as the daughter of Director, also seemed to attend that banquet...
But after thinking about it, he finally shook his head.
Bai Manshu was grown up when he watched him grow up. He was so gentle and sensible. It was absolutely impossible for a little girl to do such a thing.
Just thinking this in my heart, another unconvinced voice sounded in my mind.
But in addition to being at the banquet, Bai Manshu is also a player in this game.
Banquet guests, contestants...
These two identities happened to appear on her so by chance, and they were also identities with the possibility of being suspected.
And Zuo You didn't look at others, but she just smiled at her.
Is it really such a coincidence?
Director Li was shocked. He didn't dare to delay any more. He quickly took out his cell phone and contacted the assistant, asking him to find the video of the banquet as soon as possible!
