The Idol Group Pet Became A Final Boss! Chapter 184: Blocking and Suppressing Will Lead to Backlash

Chapter 184: Blocking and Suppressing Will Lead to Backlash ...
Unlike the serene atmosphere in the manor, a storm was brewing on the internet...
First, there was a huge reversal in public opinion. Things like Xiang Yi was a player, this objectification of women had been thrown out the window by netizens. The marketing accounts and paid haters received so much backlash they were beginning to doubt their own lives.
Then, the sudden shutdown of the stream caused strong dissatisfaction among fans as complaints and hate surfacing everywhere on the internet.
——[What kind of technical error is this hard to fix? How come we still can’t see the stream after such a long time?]
——[Here’s a theory, I think the issue in the stream was not a technical failure at all, but the work of someone else’s evil! Everyone, let’s think back: on the first day “Two Under One Roof” aired, the stream bugged out several times, right? And it’s not a matter of what’s ‘too popular’. Next door, “Heartbeat” was also very popular, yet their connection was perfectly stable and problem free?]
——[Hehe. This is obviously the work of Muyao TV no matter how you see it. What kind of sly tricks have they NOT tried before? Making up negative comments, exposing dirt, fanning the flames, buying out navies; last time, they even plagiarized a small internet variety show and refused to admit it. Refusing to admit their faults, the director even posted on Weibo to ask for help from netizens, but he was instantly buried in complaints. Use your judgment, guys.]
——[F*ck! I was wondering why there were so many posts hating on Xiang Yi. I understand that the girl’s business abilities come up a bit short, but it’s not enough to earn the spite of everyone on the internet! It turns out someone was deliberately behind it!]

These remarks caused another uproar.
Some fans even approached Muyao TV’s official blog and left a message for them asking for an explanation.
The operations department contacted the PR department, and after a long discussion, their solution was to——
Delete the comments.
Ban the users.
Remove Weibo’s trending searches.
The PR department had long gotten used to such tactics. After all, netizen emotions come and go. How long can their support last? And how long can they really hate them for?
As long as they refuse to admit anything and refuse to respond, the netizens have no proof nor patience. What could they really do to the network?

However...
Something nobody expected had happened...
The marketing page’s attitude of disregarding the netizens actually angered a large group of people!
——[No way, no way? It’s angry, don’t provoke it!]
——[Deleting comments now? Can you delete them all? If you don’t know, then you can’t change anything!]
——[Lmao, if you’re not guilty, why not just give a generous statement? Acting like such a coward means you’re guilty for sure!!]
Love and hate might not last long on the internet.
But anger will.
It’s better to divert things rather than blocking them, and it’s even better to address than to divert.

Blocking comments and suppressing opinions will receive backlash!
The overwhelming comments swarmed Muyao TV’s official page, as some people even dug out that “Delicious Three Meals”—which was airing tomorrow—was directed by Chen Mian. The netizens had found a place to vent their frustrations. Chen Mian’s personal Weibo and the “Delicious Three Meals” promotional page instantly became victim to their anger.
...
Meanwhile, at the company dinner, Chen Mian valiantly enjoyed a toast from the crowd. During the period, someone peeked at their phone and began to whisper to the people surrounding him.
Within a few minutes, everyone turned to Chen Mian with strange expressions.
“Drink! Why aren’t you guys drinking??! Am I not good enough for you?” Chen Mian said in a drunken drawl. Suddenly, his phone rang, the caller ID unsurprisingly being from his immediate supervisor.
Once he answered, his boss was brief and to the point: “Xiao Chen, the project “Delicious Three Meals” has been assigned to someone else. You should take a good rest over the next few days.”
Chen Mian suddenly sobered up in an instant, his face turning pale as a ghost.
“Boss, you can’t just let go of me...”
The phone hung up.
“No——” He wailed.
