Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 161: The crowd besieged Xu Lingyue

This sudden change left the program team a little confused.

The show starts tomorrow, and Xu Lingyue is running back to cooperate with the tax inspection at this time...

Damn, the plan is completely messed up!
As the chief director, Jiang Yan was so anxious that she kept scratching her head and wished she could pull all her hair out.

The last time "Back to the Sun" started off pretty badly, it was because of something unexpected that happened to Xu Lingyue that the show ended badly.

This time, something unexpected happened before the show started...

Why are you so unlucky?
Is it that Xu Lingyue and our Penguin Variety Department have a conflict of horoscopes?

Complaining is useless, we have to find a way to save the situation.

After all, Xu Lingyue was summoned back by the state agency to cooperate with the investigation, so we dare not really complain about anything...

Although Zhang Hong has tried her best to block the news, there is no wall that is impenetrable, and the news that Xu Lingyue cooperated with the tax investigation still spread across the entire Internet like a gust of wind.

At noon that day, the entry #许凌月遵交财宝# suddenly became a hot search, instantly shocking the entire Internet.

In fact, since Yang Yan’s exposure, several artists have been found to have evaded taxes in recent days. Everyone has become more or less immune to it, but this time it still shocked many people.

The reason is very simple. Xu Lingyue's image in the circle is too healthy - she doesn't fight, doesn't compete, doesn't make trouble, doesn't create scandals, doesn't hang out with rich men, and she makes a living entirely based on her own ability.

Previously, she went to Siyuan Village to participate in disaster relief, which also greatly increased her favorability among passers-by.

At this moment, in everyone's mind, Xu Lingyue is almost one of the synonyms of high-quality artists, so even if her new album is a mess, there are still fans who stick with her.

But now Xu Lingyue's name is actually linked to the "tax crisis"... The impact is really too great.

It even made many people feel that their worldview had collapsed.

How could those black spots and unknown creatures miss such an opportunity? They jumped out one after another and started to revel.

"What did I say? All crows are black. How can an artist stand up to scrutiny?"

"Nine out of ten celebrities leak information. I didn't believe it before, but now I really believe it."

"He's always marketing himself as a Buddhist, but it turns out he's actually a piece of shit!"

"Just telling a joke, Xu Lingyue is an excellent artist with both moral integrity and artistic talent, hahahahahaha..."

"It's really disgusting. When Yang Yan was angry, everyone was mocking and bullying her. Now she's been hit in the face by a boomerang. I just want to ask those idiots if it hurts."

"Don't be ridiculous. I have no face. How can it hurt?"

"Alas, this is really disillusionment..."

Seeing this situation, Zhang Hong urgently asked the public relations team to work overtime to control the fermentation of public opinion, and issued a statement using the studio account, briefly explaining the situation:

Xu Lingyue did not evade taxes, she is just cooperating with the relevant departments in the investigation.

We are upright and have no fear of investigation!

Rumors stop at the wise, please wait patiently for the results of the investigation... I have written a lot, but unfortunately few people are willing to believe it. They just think that the studio is struggling to survive.

After all, there have been countless famous scenes of celebrities exposing their reputations, signing oaths and swearing vows, and people are no longer used to it.

And the credibility of this statement is even lower as it happens to coincide with this tax storm.

Oh, there are so many celebrities in the entertainment industry, why do they have to investigate you, Xu Lingyue, and not others?
Flies don't bite seamless eggs. Isn't it because there is something wrong with you?
Who are you lying to?
By the evening, the entry #许凌月当时税务局# had already reached the top 3 of the hot searches. Zhang Hong tried her best to suppress the popularity but was completely powerless.

The news she got was that someone was spending a lot of money to promote this trend and it couldn't be suppressed.

Upon hearing the news, Zhang Hong was stunned for a long time, and finally gave a helpless bitter smile.

In the competition among female singers of the same age, Xu Lingyue and Yang Yan have always been like two huge mountains, suffocating their peers.

Now that Yang Yan has confirmed that GG is going to retire, Xu Lingyue is the only big mountain left. As long as this mountain is completely removed, this huge cake will be free for them to share.

Now that we have such a rare opportunity to catch Yang Yan and Xu Lingyue at the same time, how could those colleagues let it go?
Zhang Hong even suspected that the studio was inexplicably targeted by the tax authorities this time, and that someone might be behind it.

Manipulation is impossible, but as long as there are enough anonymous reports, the tax authorities will definitely not be able to sit idly by...

Xu Lingyue, who rushed back to cooperate with the investigation, had the same guess as her.

"Our tax procedures have always been in compliance with the rules and regulations. We have never tampered with them. There is no way there could be any problems." Xu Lingyue said calmly, "Someone must be thinking crooked things."

Zhang Hong nodded, agreeing with the guess. "Who do you think it is?"

"Whoever benefits is the most suspicious. This is a universal rule in any field." Xu Lingyue curled her lips and said, "It's just that there are too many female singers who have been suppressed by me over the years. It's really hard to tell them apart at once."

"But whoever did this will end up getting burned this time." Xu Lingyue sneered, "They must have thought that my tax affairs were also not clean, so they dared to send someone to report anonymously without any scruples."

"But if they find out that there is no problem with my tax affairs in the end...then they will be the ones who are in trouble. They dare to use state organs as guns. They are really not afraid of death."

Seeing Xu Lingyue so calm, Zhang Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

The other party probably never thought that there is actually someone in the entertainment industry who can pay all the debts due?
They always think that all crows are evil, and they don't believe that anyone will really abide by the law...

Ridiculous.

"But even if it turns out to be fine, your reputation will inevitably be damaged after this wave of public opinion." Zhang Hong sighed, "This is like getting ink on a white shirt. It's hard to wash it off completely."

"Even if the government issues a blue statement, there will still be people who think 'a fly won't bite an egg without cracks', and there will still be people who speculate that you might give away money to avoid disaster... It can't be stopped."

"There's no need to stop them. They can say whatever they want. They have their own mouths and I can't control them." Xu Lingyue said calmly, "Anyway, I just need to have a clear conscience."

"Besides, netizens' memories are very limited. When I return from my studies abroad, how many people will still remember this?"

Zhang Hong smiled reluctantly, "What a pity. I could have spent a comfortable vacation there, but something like this happened."

"Let's finish this quickly. It shouldn't take a few days." Xu Lingyue frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at Zhang Hong.

"Compared to recording a variety show... I actually want to meet Teacher Zhou before I leave. Do you have any ideas?"
