I became a music industry godfather by writing confidantes.

Chapter 155 A Soulmate

After the post on the Huaban Goose Group spread, it was quickly forwarded by marketing accounts to Weibo and other websites, causing a secondary reaction.

Shocking! How to view Yang Du's...

Feudal views on marriage and love exposed in China

The Little-Known Side of a 21-Year-Old Genius Producer: The Role and Dilemmas of Women in Marriage

Initially, both the plaza and the comment section were still arguing about the lyrics. Some people thought it was nitpicking and finding fault where none existed, while others thought it was Yang Du's true feelings revealing his ugly side.

However, soon, a mysterious and powerful force descended from the sky, intervening in the battlefield with overwhelming force.

He was a fan of Yang Du's books.

A user named "[Tongquechunshensuo Ercao]" wrote: "If you say that Yang Du was greedy for money, I can't refute you because I don't know."

If you say Yang Du is narcissistic, I can't refute you, but it's clear that he's a bit of a closet pervert in his daily life.

However, if you say that Yang Du discriminates against women, I really have to refute you, because I do know that.

@YangDudu's Weibo account has a total of eleven articles written by women. Basically, each article is written from the perspective of women, revealing the misfortunes and hardships that women encounter in their married lives, and expressing the bitterness, pain and grievances that women experience in life.

How could someone who writes so insightfully and movingly about infidelity, mistresses, and the messy realities of marriage be called a scumbag who discriminates against women in your mouths?

Is there any reason?

Is there no law left?

This is utterly upside down!

If you try to force Yang Du to admit to this fabricated crime, I will be the first to object.

He is our confidant, and we will not tolerate the slightest slander against him!

"Disagree? +1!"

One option is "Disagree? Add your ID number!"

—"Protect the best sheep commander!"

[Fight! Have you read Yang Du's first article, "I Changed Myself for Love—"?]

It tells the story of a successful career woman who humbled herself for her husband, becoming a housewife and making concessions in every way, only to have her husband have an affair.

This article teaches women that they should never give up themselves for marriage, and that their value should not be determined by marriage.

A person who discriminates against women could not write such an article that awakens women.

If you don't understand that kind of grievance and predicament, you can't even fabricate the details.

—"What my sister said is so true. And the movie 'On the Wedding Day' teaches us that we must have a bottom line in marriage and cannot compromise and give in without any principles."

"That's right, you have no right to speak without investigation!"

—"Eleven pieces of insightful writing, eleven kinds of enlightenment! How could such a person possibly discriminate!"

[68% of our book fan group members are women. Have we been kicked out?]

I'm a woman, and I don't need marketing accounts to teach me how to judge who truly respects women.

I have my own understanding, thoughts, and judgments; this is true clarity and independence!

[Laughing to death, according to your logic, Yang Du also wrote "say goodbye to all troubles"?]

Isn't that encouraging contemporary young people to escape from real-world problems and become complacent?

Is singing "Congratulations on getting rich" openly promoting materialism and corrupting social values?

This is utter nonsense, like a meeting of eunuchs!

[Fun fact, please be aware: Yang Dudu understands the hardships women face in marriage better than 99% of the internet!]

Holy crap, this is amazing!

The netizens who were either arguing or watching the drama unfold were completely dumbfounded. Good heavens, is this the legendary magic defeating magic? It's so exciting, it's like the grand opening act of the year!

So they called on their friends and family, and joined in this unique interactive event in groups of three or five.

[Master, I understand now. I always thought Yang Du's identities as a music producer and a blogger of emotional literature were very separate, until today—my goodness, so writing about soulmates has this kind of benefit?]

[This is hilarious! What do you mean by precisely hitting the wrong spot?]

[Trying to punch Yang Du? Don't you know Yang Du is the modern-day friend of women in the Chinese entertainment industry? Want to fight? Let's get through this sacred civil war first.]

The book fans' counterattack completely undermined the marketing accounts' arguments.

Marketing account: Yang Du discriminates against women.

Woman: No, he didn't. He understands me; he's my soulmate.

[I initially thought Yang Du's lyrics in "Gong Xi Fa Cai" were somewhat inappropriate, but now—this is purely an undeserved disaster.]

[A bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals trying to flood the Dragon King's temple? Don't underestimate the bond between our Governor Sheep and the book fans! This is outrageous!]

[If you trolls had just checked Yang Du's Weibo before making your comments, you wouldn't have suffered such a complete backlash.]

Not only were netizens stunned, but Gao Yang, who had been confident of victory, was completely dumbfounded after learning about the latest developments online.

No, this script is completely wrong.

He specially hired a team to meticulously prepare a complete and perfect plan.

Starting with the lyrics of "Gong Xi Fa Cai" (Wishing You Prosperity), they attacked Yang Du from the angle of women's issues, which is currently the most damaging aspect on the internet.

In today's online environment, those who know, know. As long as you get involved in this kind of topic, even if you eventually prove your innocence with great effort, you will still be severely punished in the process, and it will take several years for your reputation to recover.

Moreover, this time, they truly caught Yang Du red-handed; at least in his view, those lyrics could be misinterpreted.

According to normal public relations logic, when faced with such a sensitive topic, the team should either handle it quietly, remove it from the trending topics, or reduce its ranking, or clarify it immediately.

Regardless of which option Yang Dufang chooses, he will follow up with a follow-up plan.

If Yang Du doesn't respond, tomorrow's marketing articles will say that Yang Du is guilty and dares not respond; if the trending topic drops, it will be said that capital is involved and covering up the truth; if he clarifies immediately, it will be seen as a blatant attempt to cover up the truth. In short, there's a package deal waiting for him.

Not only that, but they'll also be producing a new article tomorrow afternoon—

From the perspective of women's independence

To

A disastrous turn of events: How did genius producer Yang Du build his empire by exploiting women's welfare?

Once this article is published and sparks widespread discussion, this dirty water will be completely poured on Yang Du, and he won't be able to wash it off.

He even planned to join forces with Zhu Pingting to drag Tao Cheng into the mess and suppress the rising star of Jinshi. The struggle between the three major stars is so simple and straightforward.

If things escalate further, it could become a scandal involving a top producer and a rising star!

Killing two birds with one stone!

The plan was perfect, but—

As Gao Yang looked at the Yang Du fans on the screen, who were presenting facts, reasoning, and portraying themselves as independent women, she suddenly felt dizzy.

What kind of magical creatures are these? They're all using his words!

His seemingly flawless scheme was so easily thwarted by a group of book fans who enjoy stories about mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships, infidelity, karmic debts, and third parties.

The problem is you really can't refute it, because the other party is also a woman, and her rhetoric is even more independent than his online trolls!

I'm not reconciled, I'm really not reconciled.

Gao Yang sat in the chair, feeling powerless. He had calculated everything, even taking Jin Shi into account, but he hadn't anticipated that Yang Du had a group of extraordinary book fans who could unleash such astonishing fighting power in such a short time.

What made him even more furious was that he spent money to hire online trolls, trending topics, and smear articles to stir up confrontational emotions, but what was the result?

Instead of ruining Yang Du's reputation, this dramatic turn of events attracted a lot of attention from netizens, effectively giving Yang Du a boost across the entire internet.

He watched helplessly as Yang Du's Weibo followers surged to over 700 million, and the trend continued to rise.

Is it reasonable for a behind-the-scenes producer to have over 700 million followers?
