Wen Nian continued, “So, just watch carefully. I handled the last tricky situation well, didn’t I? Trust me, I won’t let myself be bullied! If things really get out of hand, you can step in and it won’t be too late.”
Although the three of them found her to be reasonable, as parents, they couldn’t help but worry. In the end, they decided that when they meet with the Wei family, Wen Xing, the apparent head of the family, would express their stance.
Between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. was the peak commuting time when many people in China would browse the internet, read news, or watch short videos before entering their workplaces.
At exactly 7 a.m., Wen Nian uploaded the video source files on various platforms, along with the recorded audio from the moment she entered the abandoned factory until her phone was smashed.
In addition to setting a trap for Shen Jun that day, Wen Nian had also asked him to design a small program that would automatically record and upload the audio to a cloud platform.
In the age of information and the internet, videos spread quickly. However, by just after 10 a.m., all the videos with high number of views had been deleted from the platforms.
When Wen Nian attempted to repost, all the platforms displayed ’Not Passed Review.’ She sighed and said, “The power of capital.”
Although it had only been three hours, many people had already seen the videos or heard about them through colleagues or friends.
“Oh, I overslept this morning and rushed to work without checking the news. I missed this big news! Whoever has downloaded it in the group, please private message me. I’ll treat you to bubble tea at lunch!”
“I’m in for the bubble tea. I saw the video this morning. Based on my years of experience following trending news, I knew that the two ‘princesses’ would surely retaliate. I quickly downloaded it. Sisters, if anyone needs the video from me, let’s organize a schedule for treating me to bubble tea. I can’t finish so many on my own in one day.”
The acquaintances in the WeChat group were chatting, and the passers-by on the forum were also discussing.
[I feel like I’ve seen the girl who was bullied in the video somewhere before! Wasn’t she the student who was accused of using her body to gain favor with the female lead at the beginning of the year?]
[This girl seems to be plagued by misfortune. I think her name is Wen Nian. Why do all these things happen to her?]
[This girl is cunning and not a righteous person. Look at these incidents; it feels like she predicted everything and executed her plans perfectly, which is why she always counterattacks at the right moment.]
[Hey, you’ve lost your objectivity. The videos have been analyzed by a technician and confirmed to be authentic, with no Al or photoshopping involved. Are you selectively deaf? Those rich girls with their spoons full of gold have clearly targeted her with malicious intent. Can’t you see that?]
[That’s right! The things they said, and their condescending tone… I’m not an anti-wealth person, but I’m starting to feel like cursing them. The original accumulation of their wealth, who knows how much blood of ordinary people it was built upon. It’s all ill-gotten money!]
[Some people are just too submissive! They’ve knelt for too long and can’t stand up! Even angels have some thunderous methods. Don’t come to the comment section and play the saint. The rich young ladies themselves said that we, the lower class, are their toys. The class division has already been drawn. You, a lower-class person, shouldn’t flatter their stinky feet. Even if you do, it’s useless because they look down on you.]
[Wei’s family and Jiang’s family think that they are powerful! Let’s stop buying products from their affiliated companies. Let’s see how powerful they can be when they run out of money. Boycotting them is speaking up for us poor people!]
[If they raise children like this, I have low expectations for the future of these companies. I am selling their stocks.]
Once class divisions are involved, public opinion tends to favor the ordinary people. Just like the distribution of social wealth according to the Pareto principle, social resources naturally lean toward the wealthy. In such situations, ordinary people tend to instinctively come together.
As Wei Feng stared at his computer screen, devoid of any videos but filled with hundreds of discussion comments, his face paled, and he started breathing heavily.
The secretary, frightened, quickly fetched some quick-acting heart-saving pills and stuffed them into Wei Feng’s mouth. The secretary handed him a glass of water to help him swallow the pills.
After Wei Feng regained his composure, he instructed his assistant who was standing in front of him, “Instruct the PR department to intensify their efforts and contact the personnel from all the websites.. Delete all the related content, no matter where it is!”
