Chapter 600: I Am at Odds with Cyber Violence!

Zhou Yi originally felt that the difference between his own perversion and Lawyer Fang was one Zhou Xinran, but now he discovered that the difference might actually be a hundred Zhou Xinrans!

However, it is not that Lawyer Fang has an obsession with sending people inside; his obsession should be that if you commit a crime, you should go to jail!

That is why he is so keen on Criminal Private Prosecution, and so keen on some strange and bizarre charges...

There are even some charges that many people have never even heard of.

But after thinking about it, Zhou Yi raised another question: "Lawyer Fang, even if it can really be proven that what he ate during the live stream was not foie gras but duck liver, couldn't he just say at that time that he couldn't tell the difference?"

Zhou Yi felt that if he encountered such a thing, his first reaction would definitely be to deny it; it would be impossible to admit it!

If you admit it, you have to go to jail!

"If you don't admit it like this, at most it will be exposed that you can't be an Anchor in the future, but you don't have to go to jail, but if you admit it..."

Upon hearing this, Lawyer Fang raised his head, a trace of happiness on his face as he said: "Zhou Yi, you have a bit of a feel for it now."

"I can't say with one hundred percent certainty right now that the other party is intentionally engaging in False Propaganda; it still depends on the investigation situation of the Public Security Bureau."

"It's just that, through research on this influencer's previous videos and news reports, I roughly speculate that he should have known."

"Because that restaurant didn't just engage in False Propaganda about one or two things; whenever they involved relatively expensive ingredients, they all engaged in False Propaganda!"

"This person named Xiao Guo, being able to reach the point he is at now, shows that he still has some ability; we cannot deny this point. Even if he isn't capable, his team definitely has people who understand!"

Lawyer Fang gave a rough explanation, and Zhou Yi slowly began to understand.

Indeed, the other party could deny everything and say they just didn't know, but such top-tier influencers all have teams.

For an influencer team that focuses on professional shop exploration, it is a bit unreasonable to say that none of them could identify those fake ingredients.

And the most important point is, we don't talk about things like having the right to remain silent; what we say is, leniency for confession and severity for resistance!

"Moreover, for this crime, the advertiser, the advertisement publisher, and the advertisement operator all have to go inside."

Hearing this, Zhou Yi immediately shook his head. Lawyer Fang was indeed still the same; if nothing else, the operator of that influencer restaurant would definitely be Treading the Sewing Machine.

Lawyer Fang began to organize the evidence, but the current evidence was not enough.

Because the only evidence that could prove the other party's ingredients were fake was the video shot by Sun Pengxing, but that was filmed secretly.

Evidence from secret filming is still easily applicable in civil cases, but criminal cases are different; in terms of criminal cases, the probative value of such evidence is definitely not enough.

Therefore, it is necessary to wait for the investigation results of the Market Supervision Department to come out and then use the investigation results to report to the police; only then will the probative value be sufficient.

And the evidence Lawyer Fang wants to build is simple: on one hand, it is to say, look, this restaurant exists with the situation of passing off inferior goods as superior, and the fact of False Propaganda exists.

This is one aspect; the other aspect is to prove that this influencer has always been very professional, so can we suspect that he knew the items were fake before promoting them?

Such evidence is already enough to make the Public Security Bureau pay attention, especially for the operator of Shaoxi Restaurant; that can be said to be a nail in the coffin.

In such waiting, five days passed in a flash.

During these five days, Xiao Guo apologized once more, and one could see from the Netizens' reactions that there were indeed quite a few supporters.

And when the fifth day arrived, what made Zhou Yi happy was that the Company's investigation finally had results.

"Here, pay special attention here; this bunch of accounts cursing people are like they have schizophrenia—one moment they are cursing people, and the next moment the other party apologizes, and they start defending them again."

"And here, it must also be emphasized."

Sigh, I don't know if this is the consequence of me reporting to the police earlier and a batch of Internet Water Army being caught.

These current Internet Water Army are a bit too unprofessional!

Those Internet Water Army from the past excelled at being professional; this kind of behavior where one account carries different rhythms basically didn't exist.

However, Zhou Yi definitely wouldn't say in the video that the other party was an Internet Water Army; his videos are always extremely objective.

I don't infer anything, I don't explain anything; I just publish the situation I investigated to everyone.

After the Employee of the Self-Media Studio modified some details, Zhou Yi was finally satisfied.

The next step was to dub and upload this video.

Sitting in the office, Zhou Yi actually felt a bit rusty; it had been a while since he posted a video. Since everyone likes to watch him, Zhou Mouren, be serious, then he would be serious for once!

"Hello, dear audience lords, I am your old friend A Yi. Recently, I saw something on the internet that really made me particularly indignant!"

"That is, some more people doing Self-Media have been subjected to Cyber Violence. Everyone who has watched my videos knows me; I, as a person, am at odds with Cyber Violence!"

"So, although there was no commission, I feel that as a person who is serious, I should help them investigate the situation clearly; even if they want to file a Criminal Private Prosecution, I can help!"

"So, I started to investigate. This workload is really huge because I need to find out the situation of these influencers across the entire internet and conduct statistics on the comments."

"Then I discovered some coincidental things, such as this Xiao Guo, ah, the famous shop exploration Up Master, very, very professional. I believe many people are clear about this; the degree of professionalism is obvious to all!"

"Previously, the matter regarding him was the food poisoning at Shaoxi Restaurant. Although he is an Employee of my Company, everyone knows that I, as a person, never shield them; whatever the situation is, that is what it is!"

"Xiao Guo said he was subjected to Cyber Violence, and many people were cursing him. Then, after my investigation, that day, there were a total of 63,732 forwards and comments across the entire internet, plus the comments under the reports, totaling 163,231 across the entire internet."

"However, among so much data, how many were cursing him? There were 500, or to be precise, there were 500 accounts very fixedly and uniformly cursing him."

"What makes people even more curious is that after statistical analysis of the cursing content posted by these 500 accounts, there are the following three types; that's right, there was almost no major modification."

Speaking of this, Zhou Yi had to sigh; this is the power of Big Data.

After summarizing and analyzing all the data, the situation inside became very clear; and this was just through the investigation initiated by the Employees.

It is not hard to imagine how awesome the Big Data analysis of those internet companies is; perhaps their Big Data knows you better than you know yourself.

"Of course, what I can't figure out even more is that these 500 accounts, a few days later, after Xiao Guo apologized, started to extremely uniformly defend the other party again. The content posted was also all the same; I won't go into detail here, there are special statistical charts, everyone can take a look."

"This is just Xiao Guo's data; there is also data for a total of thirteen other influencers, everyone can take their time to look."

"Really, regarding Cyber Violence, I have studied it quite a lot, but I have never encountered such a strange situation."

"However, it doesn't matter; I am at odds with Cyber Violence. They have been subjected to Cyber Violence too miserably during this period, so now, I must help them seek justice and let those who engage in Cyber Violence go inside!"

After the recording was completed, Zhou Yi looked at it carefully again; there were no problems, so he clicked upload!

Douyin and P Station, these are Xiao Guo's main bases, and they are also the main bases for Zhou Mouren.

The reviewer Fangfang sat in front of the computer with a face full of boredom; although watching videos is very interesting, when interest becomes a profession, the feeling is gone.

For example, a profession like a pornography appraiser...

While feeling bored, a video titled "I am at odds with Cyber Violence!" caught Fangfang's attention.

This was mainly because this Up Master was called A Yi, and his videos were consistently a source of joy for the reviewers.

She hurriedly opened it to take a look, and before long, Fangfang was stunned by the content inside.

"This A Yi, he seems to be playing for keeps this time!"

Even a reviewer like Fangfang had never encountered an investigative video like this before.

It contained many details; one could tell the filming team was truly professional, with an investigation process and investigation results.

But is this something a human being could actually pull off?

Slowly finishing the video, Fangfang did not hesitate at all and passed the review directly!

Holy crap, a video like this should have met the Netizens sooner!

Because she was also getting a bit fed up with those influencers who were constantly being subjected to Internet Violence and depressed all day long; the video titles were always things like: "I was subjected to Internet Violence" or "I discovered I have depression."

The mockery in this video was truly too thick, even though A Yi in the video kept declaring that he and Internet Violence were irreconcilable.

However, even a fool could see that those five hundred accounts definitely had issues!

Consequently, about half an hour after Zhou Yi uploaded the video, all major platforms updated with this video.

Immediately, the incident, which had been slowly subsiding following the apologies of Xiao Guo and the others, exploded once again, and the intensity of the explosion was several Tsar Bomba magnitudes greater than before!

Many Netizens had the same first reaction as Fangfang after watching the video: Is this something a human being could pull off?

"A Yi really doesn't act unless he's sure, but once he does, it's astonishing. I never expected he would actually counterattack from this angle!"

"To the one above, what do you mean counterattack? Can't you see A Yi is helping Xiao Guo? He said he and Internet Violence are irreconcilable. Oh right, I am also irreconcilable with gambling and drugs!"

"Finally someone is doing this kind of investigation. Although there have been similar news reports before saying influencers stage their own Internet Violence, there was never any evidence. Now, there is finally evidence!"

In Guang City, Yuan Jie, who was in the middle of a livestream, knelt directly toward the video: "Regarding this video, I don't know what to say anymore, so I'll just kowtow to A Yi."

Then, Yuan Jie herself did not expect that her action would actually become a meme, suddenly going viral, and many influencers began to imitate it.

There was no helping it; this video was too hardcore—so hardcore that even if some people wanted to nitpick, they wouldn't know where to start.

After all, that was A Yi. If he said he had investigated, then he definitely had. If anyone dared to question him, he would immediately toss out a pile of evidence.

By then, they would be the ones in deep trouble.

And in such an atmosphere, Guo Qifeng naturally already knew the situation.

After watching the video, the faces of everyone on the team were extremely ugly.

"What do we do? What do we do now? We must respond, otherwise if this continues, all our previous actions will be questioned!"

This was also a normal situation; if you hadn't flipped your car yet, it would be fine, but if it's exposed that you've engaged in deception, then sorry, everyone will definitely suspect whether you did the same thing in the past.

In that case, it would be hard to maintain the persona.

Guo Qifeng's face was gloomy, but before he could say anything, the conference room door was pushed open, and another staff member walked in.

"It's bad, the Guangming District Market Supervision Bureau has already announced the investigation results!"

As the words fell, there was no more sound from the people in the team; how could these things collide like this!

Of course, things wouldn't be such a coincidence. For the Guangming District Market Supervision Department, this matter was also of great importance.

The investigation results actually already existed; they were just originally planned to be announced next week, but they didn't expect A Yi to suddenly pull off such a stunt, so that was perfect—they could just ride this east wind and announce it directly.

Riding the coattails of popularity, it's not shameful.

Guo Qifeng picked up his phone like a madman and started searching, then looked at that investigation report.

In this investigation report, Shaoxi Restaurant had several behaviors: taking sashimi left over by the previous table of guests and serving it to the next table of guests; sometimes the time delayed in between was long, which easily caused food poisoning for the next table of guests.

And then there was the main event: the extremely serious phenomenon of passing off inferior goods as superior ones!

The more he looked, the darker his face became, and his eyes grew redder.

Finally, as if he had seen the fuse, Guo Qifeng threw his phone onto the ground and said fiercely: "Is this A Yi f***ing sick? What is he f***ing after? Did I f***ing kill his family or what, ah!!"

No one spoke, because in everyone's opinion, besides ruining Guo Qifeng's persona and making it impossible to be an influencer and make money in the future, this behavior seemed to have no payoff.

Because of this, many people in the team began to exchange glances.

They are just influencers; if you can prop one up, you can certainly prop up more, but this kind of thing is just like an investment.

That this influencer could reach this level might be the result of luck, opportunity, and other factors converging.

Especially now that the industry involution is becoming more and more serious.

Finally, the agent spoke up: "Qifeng, don't be anxious yet. Let's think of a way; we absolutely cannot admit defeat easily."

"Besides, even if it is A Yi this time, what can he do? He can't possibly send you to jail. The worst-case scenario is just that your persona collapses..."

Hearing this, Guo Qifeng calmed down a little. That's right, he hadn't completely lost yet, and he wasn't like those people in A Yi's previous videos who had committed crimes and had to be cowardly even if they didn't want to be.

He hadn't done anything!

It's just, how should he respond to this? Apologize?

He had apologized too many times before, making everyone develop fatigue...

Of course, Guo Qifeng didn't know that at this very moment, inside the Guangming Peak Residential Quarter, Tong Feiyan, who had been excited because of A Yi's video, looked at the regulatory department's investigation results and couldn't help but shout: "Well done, they should have investigated it long ago!"

Looking at the internet again, following the announcement of this investigation result by the Market Supervision Department, the incident, which already had off-the-charts popularity, exploded even further!

It's not that this matter was particularly disgusting—although it was indeed very disgusting—but if you have ever really been in contact with the kitchens of some restaurants, you would know that there are plenty of disgusting things.

Even many people felt that in those high-end places with high consumption, there were no food hygiene problems; that was just what they thought...

The reason this matter could be so attractive was, on one hand, due to the important element of food safety, and on the other hand, because the influencer element in it was too thick.

Although we always say in our daily lives that we don't like influencer elements a bit, you have to admit that those influencers, people really do follow them!

So they just have the traffic; now that the influencer restaurant and the influencer gathered together, the popularity naturally rose extremely fast.

The majority of people online were still silent, but this time, many people finally couldn't help but complain.

"Let me see, selling cheap beef as the best beef, selling cheap seafood as expensive seafood, duck liver as imported goose liver... Holy crap, taking leftover sashimi and putting it back on a plate to serve to the next table? Ugh..."

"Holy crap, f***, I just went to eat there last month! I f***ing waited in line for two hours at the time, this f***ing... I can't take it, I feel like throwing up."

"+1, I also went last month, and adding A Yi's video, this damn thing, so it turns out Xiao Guo being subjected to Internet Violence was just the Water Army he hired himself!"

There were even some internet celebrities who had specifically checked in there who also posted updates.

Of course, chasing clout isn't shameful.

Anyway, as the investigation results were announced, a bunch of people started expressing their disgust there.

Chen Xutong, who was originally very fierce at retorting to people, has now become a mute, because she discovered she didn't know what to say.

If Xiao Guo being a victim of Internet Violence was fake, and hiring an Internet Water Army was real, then does that mean Xiao Guo is also fake in other aspects?

That A Yi seems to have said nothing, but his video has already proven everything; five hundred accounts, how could it be such a coincidence?

For example, some people have already raised questions: Xiao Guo's persona is very professional, so, regarding the situations of passing off inferior goods as superior in the investigation, does he know?

If he doesn't know, then does that mean he can't even tell the difference between good and bad?

This comment was quickly pushed to the top, because the investigation video A Yi posted was actually aimed at internet celebrities telling lies.

But the investigation video itself did not link to the restaurant.

Such a comment, in the past, Chen Xutong would have already retorted to him, but now, she doesn't know what to say.

She just kept refreshing Xiao Guo's account, wanting to know the other party's response.

Finally, after about twenty minutes, Chen Xutong suddenly became excited; she saw Xiao Guo's response.

"I know there are many people scolding me now, feeling that I told lies and faked being a victim of Internet Violence, but I want to say, is that A Yi's investigation video definitely true? Regarding the other party's behavior, I reserve the right to pursue the other party's legal responsibility!"

"In addition, the Market Supervision Department investigated so many problems, passing off inferior goods as superior, etc., but here I want to say that the two times I went, the food I ate had no problems!"

"I can swear to this point; if the food I ate back then had problems, then may my whole family be hit to death by a car, is that okay?"

"A Yi is indeed very famous, but that doesn't mean everything he says is right, right? Please rest assured, everyone, I am already in contact with the restaurant regarding this matter, and I will definitely get an explanation!"

"Also, there are always people scolding me now, so does your behavior count as Internet Violence?"

After finishing the entire response, Chen Xutong suddenly had vitality again.

That's right, could it be that the investigation video A Yi posted is definitely true?

Moreover, if it was true when Xiao Guo went to eat, then if the restaurant changed it themselves later, he couldn't possibly know.

With such thoughts, Chen Xutong was high-spirited and once again began to fight with other Netizens.

Zhou Yi naturally also saw the relevant information; by comparison, Netizens seem to be more concerned about the hygiene problems inside the restaurant.

For example, things like taking a rag used for mopping the floor to wipe food directly, and re-plating leftover sashimi.

Regarding selling cheap ingredients as expensive ingredients, it seems there isn't a particularly big feeling.

And that Xiao Guo's response made him want to laugh a little.

It should be said that before posting the video, Zhou Yi had already thought that the other party would definitely deny the authenticity of his video.

Even swearing a poisonous oath; regarding this kind of so-called poisonous oath about the whole family dying in a car accident, normal people actually still hold a certain sense of awe.

Although we often say that murderers and arsonists wear golden belts while those who build bridges and repair roads have no corpses, subconsciously, regarding this kind of thing, there will still be a little awe.

But, some Anchors don't care about this when they swear poisonous oaths, saying things like their own mother exploding, they just say it if they want to...

However, it doesn't matter; he, Zhou Mouren, has always left himself a backup plan when doing things.

The Self-Media Studio still has an unedited version of about 172 hours, in which all the information is listed, very clearly, and all can be found on the internet.

Since that's the case, then upload it; it's just a pity for the hair of the reviewers, this is a huge project.

Clicking upload on the computer, Zhou Yi didn't bother with it anymore; with such a large volume, uploading will also take a while.

And what he has to do is go to the police.

Fang Dazhuang said before that the Market Supervision Department might also report it to the police, because regarding False Advertising Crime, if it hasn't reached the level of a crime, it needs them to handle it.

The current situation has obviously reached the standard, so one must take the first step.

Tidying up a little, Zhou Yi went downstairs and set off, heading straight for the Guangming Road Police Station.

Arriving at the place, he walked straight in, even more arrogant than arriving at his own home.

But now, the police officers here basically all know him; the number of police officers in a Police Station is limited after all.

The one on duty inside was a young man, he had seen him before, but just couldn't remember his name.

It was the other party who smiled after seeing Zhou Yi: "Mr. Zhou is here again, what's the matter this time?"

"There is a small matter this time, it's that Shaoxi Restaurant from before, you know it, look here, the Market Supervision Department has just released the investigation results..."

While Zhou Yi was talking, he handed over the evidence.

The young man looked at the evidence, then said with some confusion: "False Propaganda, this matter is not under our jurisdiction... hey hey, wait a minute!"

Picking up the evidence again to look at it, the young man immediately said: "It seems there is a problem, this restaurant's business is quite good!"

There is another component to False Advertising Crime; it must reach the level of Serious Circumstances.

If the circumstances are not serious, then it is generally the Market Supervision Department that carries out the Administrative Penalty.

In fact, this charge is used relatively rarely in reality...

But Shaoxi Restaurant is different; it has always used various precious ingredients as the main propaganda factor, which is to say, this is one of its big selling points!

Other internet celebrities' propaganda is also like this; although the price of nearly three hundred per person is not cheap, being able to eat so many precious ingredients is worth it.

Many people specifically ran to Jingzhou just for its cost-performance ratio.

Then under such circumstances, the other party using cheap ingredients to substitute, the situation could be serious!

"Mr. Zhou, you really can bring surprises every time; we are close to the restaurant, but we all know that this restaurant hired many internet celebrities for propaganda."

The young man sighed inside, if they really want to investigate, these internet celebrities all have to be investigated to see if they knew the situation.

"And the restaurant owner... Mr. Zhou, how about this, you go back first, and we will notify you when we have results."

Zhou Yi nodded; as far as the current situation is concerned, a Case Filing is definitely necessary!

The restaurant owner definitely has nowhere to run.

It's just that the situation of those internet celebrities needs to be discussed, but it doesn't matter; what he, Zhou Yi, lacks the least right now is time.

Coming out of the Guangmingfeng Police Station, Zhou Yi went all the way back to the Company to check the upload progress; it had only just uploaded less than fifty percent.

Then there is no need to rush; just keep waiting.

Time flew by until evening; Fangfang had been busy all day, and checking the time, she realized she could hand over her shift and go home in another twenty minutes.

The job of a moderator sounds good, but the overtime is also quite intense; sometimes the overtime is particularly brutal, and there are even cases of sudden death.

Twenty minutes is definitely enough to moderate one video; there are very few particularly long videos nowadays, especially from the Up Masters she is responsible for.

A Yi's videos are generally only ten minutes or so.

She clicked on a video to begin moderation, and then she discovered that the progress bar of this video seemed a little bit long.

"What the f***, a video over 170 hours long? Is A Yi crazy!"

What kind of concept is this? It means her hairline will move back by at least three centimeters!

Just by looking at the content, Fangfang sighed helplessly; the disputes on the internet end up tiring out the moderators, of all people.

Where can you even go to reason about something like this!

But there is no way one person can handle this kind of length; couldn't A Yi have posted it in parts?

Facts proved that Guo Qifeng had overestimated his own popularity and underestimated the extent of the Netizens' trust in A Yi.

Looking at the comment with the highest popularity online, Guo Qifeng's expression was blank.

This was posted by someone named "Idle Cloud Wild Crane Number Five".

"As for this person A Yi, I can say now that I don't like him, and I still feel his pedantry is completely unnecessary; this society cannot be measured solely by the law."

"However, I trust his character very much. If he says this investigation is real, then I believe it must be real. It has nothing to do with anything else, because every time he said he would send someone in, he actually sent them in."

This brother's sentiments seemed very profound, and this also represented the thoughts of many people.

These people might not like this kind of pedantry, but everyone trusts A Yi's character.

Even though his own die-hard fans kept refuting it, it was completely useless; the power of one of A Yi's videos is immense!

This is a guarantee he made using that pile of prison mates Treading the Sewing Machine inside the Guangming District First Prison!

There is no way to refute it; Guo Qifeng now feels that whatever he says is useless.

He had a mind to settle scores with that previous leader of the Internet Water Army, but that guy could no longer be found.

Perhaps he should post a video to apologize and then permanently retire from the internet; the money he has earned is enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

Soon, a trace of peace appeared on Guo Qifeng's face; after making the decision to retire from the internet, he felt completely relaxed.

After retiring from the internet, he would return to his hometown, put the money into some financial investments, and without these disputes, living his own plain life and enjoying life would also be quite good...

…………

In Modu, inside a Small Residential District, Xing Peilin watched the situation online with his heart pounding.

Damn it, this line of work as an Internet Water Army is not easy to mix in; how did the first order he took run into problems, and he even had his accounts dug up by others.

Fortunately, those accounts didn't use his own name; it seems he needs to learn from this experience—the same batch of accounts cannot be used on the same person at the same time.

And in the future, he will have to write more varied content when posting comments...

The update is here, nearly eight thousand words; thanks to brother Book Friend 2022, another newbie brother, Wenchidage, brother Zai Zhan San Guo, brother Thinking About a Nickname for a Long Time, and brother Feimaowuyu; thanks to all the brothers for the tips, thank you.
