'
That afternoon, the entire Chinese entertainment industry was incredibly busy.
Initially, multiple celebrity studios issued statements and even wrote denunciations.
Whether it's a statement or a manifesto, the wording is actually quite similar: intense, sharp, angry, shocked, and incomprehensible.
Then the celebrities' fans launch a full-scale online attack, either indiscriminately or demanding explanations.
Then came all sorts of conspiracy theories and comments from onlookers —
"Just how big of a deal is it that so many big stars have to step in and take the fall?"
"To be honest, I feel that all the scandals of this batch of celebrities combined are not as explosive as Li Zhou's. It's unnecessary."
"Indeed. They'd love to dig up every little thing about Li Zhou when he was a kid, even his bedwetting. With his popularity and buzz, that's more than enough."
"I don't understand, I don't understand at all — whatever, let's just watch the show. I didn't expect Song Mingche to be such a jerk in private."
"I never expected that Wang Zeyuan, who seems to be the most serious top star, is such a womanizer in private. Well, he's in his late 30s, so he can only do some fancy things now."
"I just realized that he and Lü Muyuan are more than a decade older than me, yet they're still categorized as 'young heartthrobs.' But the kinds of things they do are definitely beyond their age."
"There's even some gossip about that person—never mind, she's not exactly a top star, I'd rather look at some gossip about Zhang Jiayan."
""
Nothing else, the situation is constantly escalating, with new celebrity scandals being exposed.
Although Li Zhou, as the instigator, had anticipated that things would get out of control, he did not expect them to spread so wildly.
Initially, Li Zhou deliberately provoked the anti-fans, who then launched an attack, while those inside and outside the circle merely watched.
Subsequently, Li Zhou once again proactively released dirt on himself, and at that time, some colleagues in the industry quietly stepped in.
Because some of the negative information wasn't arranged by Li Zhou—after all, he knows exactly what he was behind.
Then Li Zhou had his team release dirt on others, and things escalated into a free-for-all.
Many industry peers have taken the initiative to join the fray and expand the scope of their attacks.
To put it another way, Li Zhou mainly targets male celebrities, such as Song Mingche, Wang Zeyuan (a top idol born in the 90s), and Lü Muyuan.
Even people like Shen Junyi weren't included.
It was nothing more than Li Zhou casually helping Ning Xixia, mixed with some minor scandals involving two actresses born in 95.
Those two super-popular female celebrities, second only to the top stars, are currently insurmountable mountains for other actresses born in the 95s.
The "dirt" is the same stuff that everyone already knows, but it just comes with a few real photos.
Then, the blame was extended to Zhang Jiayan, a top female celebrity born in the 90s—and also to other top female celebrities.
As for other super popular celebrities, none of them escaped the attack; they were all singled out and attacked.
A large part of this is actually the behavior of celebrity fans.
Many fans, seeing their favorite characters being attacked like this, became emotional and started launching indiscriminate attacks.
Interestingly, even after all this, no celebrity studio has issued a lawyer's letter.
Similarly, no celebrity has spoken out.
It's all about celebrity studios posting messages, celebrity fans engaging in all sorts of chaotic battles, and ordinary netizens watching and gossiping.
As an aside, discussions about conspiracy theories seem to be restricted; on platforms like Weibo and Douyin, the mainstream comments are mostly just casual gossip.
After all, there was no conspiracy involved.
Moreover, it's quite enjoyable to watch the drama unfold, and netizens don't have that much time to worry about it.

It is worth mentioning that Song Mingche was not surprised by the sudden change in public opinion.
He had expected this.
Furthermore, they arranged for agent Sister Yu in advance, instructing the team to pay attention to crisis public relations.
There aren't many places where you can use public relations.
The scene was so chaotic that Song Mingche's studio simply issued a brief statement.
It was used as a way to avoid liability.
However, seeing the trending topic #SongMingcheolIsAlwaysIn#, which was already quite subtle, Song Mingcheol still felt uneasy.
It's fortunate that he's old and has been out of school for many years, otherwise he would have wanted to find the student counselor.
What does "every time" mean?
Song Mingche focused his attention on public opinion again, and said thoughtfully, "It's more chaotic than I expected."
"Maybe this is what they call a scourge that lives on for a thousand years—this Li Zhou is truly a complete scourge; how did the Chinese entertainment industry let someone like him become popular!"
He used to think these things to himself, but this time he couldn't help but say them out loud.
Song Mingche really couldn't understand it—especially in the last few months, he had truly felt the disgusting extent of Li Zhou's extremely high popularity.
Thinking about it, Song Mingche immediately cursed inwardly, "Damn it! I shouldn't have provoked Li Zhou in the first place!"
Sister Yu, who was standing next to him, sighed and helplessly continued, "There's nothing we can do. These days, becoming a big star in the online celebrity world depends on luck. He's just lucky."
"And—he really is talented, which is truly outrageous."
Speaking of this, Song Mingche couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness, even though it was difficult for him to completely open up to his manager in private.
However, he doesn't really shy away from the topic of Li Zhou's talent.
"Encounter," "Rice Fragrance," and "Summer Fruits"—these three songs are widely recognized for their high intensity.
In an era when Chinese music and even global music are so stagnant, even just one song like this would be enough to shake the Chinese music scene.
As a result, one person composed three poems, among which "Summer Fruits" is widely recognized as the most unreasonable.
How the hell could they create such an arrangement? Anyone could sing a couple of lines without going off-key.
That's bad enough, but last month he suddenly said he was going to become a screenwriter.
"Xu" did start strong but ended weak, and it was indeed very popular, not at all a classic, but—it made money.
So far, it is the highest-grossing TV series across all platforms this year, bar none.
So what if it's a bad drama? How many dramas in the last 10 years can be considered classics and have become so popular that they're known to the whole nation? You can count them on two hands.
In conclusion, Song Mingche was actually quite worried that Li Zhou might also have some talent in acting.
The movie he starred in had already finished filming, while the movie starring Li Zhou had just started filming. This meant that he had no room to maneuver, while Li Zhou still had options.
This—just thinking about it makes my heart ache.
So, to avoid further worry, Song Mingche changed the subject: "I heard that he was invited to the Spring Festival Gala?"
"I'm not sure, but there are definitely rumors in the industry," Sister Yu replied. "With the song 'Rice Fragrance,' it's entirely possible that they could be invited to the Spring Festival Gala."
She then immediately added, "However, given how big this public opinion storm is, it might all fall through."
Song Mingche then asked, "How many years has it been since I was on the Spring Festival Gala?"
At the peak of his popularity, Li Zhou was still working in Shenzhen, and he had already appeared on the Spring Festival Gala twice.
One was a language-based program, and the other was a choral performance.
To ensure everything goes smoothly, the Spring Festival Gala almost never has live singing performances; for song programs, the singing level is actually irrelevant.
Therefore, even though Song Mingche had never sung before, he was still invited to the stage.
Sister Yu quickly replied, "It's the fourth year. If we want to go, we can try."
So Song Mingche said frankly, "Let's try again."
He brought up the topic of the Spring Festival Gala, and he does indeed have the idea of appearing on it again.
His thinking was rather simple: it was time to face the competition directly with Li Zhou.
Song Mingche was also aware that even if he didn't take the initiative, Li Zhou's team wouldn't let him off the hook.
Rather than waiting to be killed, it's better to take the initiative.

The situation quickly developed in a way that exceeded Li Zhou's expectations.
He was sitting next to Chen Anqiang, playing the role of Xiao Li, the on-set observer—after all, movies and television are different, and it's time to observe again.
Unexpectedly, after watching only two extremely simple scenes, Yang Sisi suddenly rushed over with her phone.
"It's Mr. Xu on the phone."
Li Zhou glanced at his phone screen; the contact name on it was indeed "Boss".
He then went to the side to answer the call and greeted the customer in a very honest and straightforward manner: "Boss, what are your instructions?"
Xu Qingyi snorted in annoyance: "Come on, I wanted to ask you if Boss Li has any instructions for me."
Li Zhou: "?"
Xu Qingyi on the other end of the phone didn't mince words and asked frankly, "Was this public opinion situation within your expectations?"
"I can't be bothered to look at the company's reports. However, some of the damaging information was obtained by my people from paparazzi, and I can confirm that it was only given to you, and the paparazzi's copy was definitely destroyed—"
"Of course, none of that matters."
Li Zhou was almost dumbfounded. Why was he chattering so much? This wasn't Boss Xu's style.
Fortunately, Xu Qingyi revealed the answer in the next second: "The important thing is that Ms. Zeng paid attention and even asked me, Li Zhou: '!'"
Then, Xu Qingyi emphasized, "Think about it carefully and give me an explanation."
"It's not about private life or scandals; it's 100% slander, so there's nothing to say about it."
"
"It's being arrogant, it's being haughty—"
Li Zhou couldn't help but blurt out, "Six hundred and sixty-six, how can real dirt be 100% slander?!"
""
"Shut the hell up and give me an explanation." Xu Qingyi interrupted her quickly.
She says it's 100% slander, and it is 100% slander—has anyone actually seen it?
If it doesn't exist, then it's just something made up out of nothing.
Moreover, Xu Qingyi knew the source of this batch of negative information. At the time, Boss Li explained that they were all good friends of the opposite sex whom he had met by chance.
Which top celebrity doesn't have a few female friends?
After Xu Qingyi reminded him again, Li Zhou understood the key point.
It's not Mr. Xu who wants to hear any explanation, but rather his mother, Ms. Zeng.
After a brief reorganization, Li Zhou confessed honestly and completely: "These are all true stories that were dug up by anti-fans."
"This is also what I've been telling you before, the part I'm most worried about, because at least on the surface it really did happen, there's video evidence to prove it."
"I was indeed a bit young and impetuous back then."
"I'm actually happy to see this old post being dug up by haters. I hope it will all collapse into ruins in one fell swoop."
"Of course, it didn't really collapse."
After honestly explaining, Li Zhou then offered his own explanation: "That went extremely smoothly; the topic was started by the host, but the host's part was cut from the broadcast."
"I think we should be able to find original program footage to prove this."
"As for things like attacking competitors—that's really hard to explain, because feuds are common."
"Secondly, I can't stand the arrogant attitude of some so-called official media. When that bastard came up to block me, he didn't even identify himself. Later, he took things out of context and tried to cyberbully me. He didn't even know what kind of person he was."
"Honestly, the company should have made the decision for me in this kind of situation, but considering your straightforward and innocent personality, I'll let it go."
After listening patiently, Xu Qingyi on the other end of the phone said in a very satisfied tone, "Okay, if that's the case, then there's no problem."
"Next time you want to make a big splash, give me a heads-up beforehand, even just a WeChat message would be fine, otherwise I won't be prepared—"
After saying a few words, Xu Qingyi muttered, "And she still wants to be sexually exploited? —"
Then Xu Qingyi coughed twice: "Okay, that's all, go do your thing."
"6
After ending the call, Li Zhou couldn't help but click his tongue. He felt that there was some hope left regarding being sexually exploited.
As for why it has to be someone who's taken advantage of, rather than someone who just clings to you and lives off you, well, that's because—
He, Li, still has a lot of actresses he wants to promote, and a lot of passion, love, and life he wants to experience.
If someone who lives off a woman dares to do this, then we'll have to see if he, Li, has the life of a cat—but cats only have nine lives, so that's probably not enough.
I guess the only experience I can have is drifting from the Pearl River across the Lingdingyang and then to some other ocean or sea.
Such a major scandal that sweeps across the entire Chinese entertainment industry is usually dealt with quickly.
As the instigator, Li Zhou dared not allow the situation to continue to escalate.
Therefore, after receiving Xu Qingyi's call, Li Zhou also gave the latest arrangements.
He's added another wave of negative press to his head —
Almost instantly, the trending topics shifted.
Initially, 69 out of the 100 trending topics on Weibo's two hot search lists were related to Li Zhou's negative events.
Later, a large number of scandals involving other big stars and top celebrities were exposed, and all 100 spots were taken up by negative topics.
The number of topics related to Li Zhou has decreased to 37.
As a result, the new damaging information released by Li Zhou's team quickly went viral, causing the number of #LiZhou# hashtags to surge again to 81.
The top five on both lists are all related to Li Zhou.
The most explosive trending topic is—#LiZhouSuspectedOfRelationshipWithAMinor#
First of all, the original owner had dropped out of high school, was a minor before dropping out, and had never been in a relationship.
Secondly, the image data is recent.
In the end, the melon was something Li Zhou himself concocted.
All the leaked images show Li Zhou being intimate with a girl who looks like she's underage.
Although they weren't the type to sleep together, they looked very affectionate from many angles.
The key is that the clarity is just right, not too blurry but not too sharp.
You can clearly see Li Zhou's appearance, as well as the woman's face shape and how youthful her face is.
"Holy crap, my brother Zhou is probably going to have a major scandal this time. This isn't just gossip, it's legal gossip."
"Oh no, my brother Zhou is really going to die, let's offer incense—"
"Alright, alright, this is what they call reaping what you sow. Brother Zhou, I will always miss you."
"...
""
izhou and Xiaoheizi immediately spread the news and celebrated, reacting even faster than other contestants in the Chinese entertainment industry.
Even Ili was completely dumbfounded; they really couldn't find an angle to defend Li Zhou for the time being.
This time, just half an hour later, Li Zhou personally updated his Weibo status.
"It was sudden, shocking, and frustrating."
I don't know who's trying to kill me, but all I can do is laugh. Finding this kind of information means someone's already desperate—
Statement: 1. This is one of my makeup artists, who has been with Shengshi for almost 3 years (Shengshi was only established 3 years ago).
2. The internet is not a lawless zone. 3. I found the original image, in higher resolution—[/image]×9
4. Brief identity information of the makeup artist[/image]. She's a 95er (born in the 90s), and the makeup artist said she's very happy that people mistake her for a minor even though she's almost 30.
P.S.: Weibo administrators, please remove this trending topic. As a public social media platform, don't you have any responsibility for monitoring public opinion?
