Chapter 84: Shang Yiran

After Gu Beicheng entered, he felt the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange.

However, he quickly adjusted his expression and said with a hint of apology. Qian Qian Chao Shuo

"Bingyan, I'll try to keep it brief and not disturb you and Mr. Xu's rest."

"You know Shang Yiran, right?" Gu Beicheng handed a folder to Tang Bingyan, "He has been accused of raping an underage girl."

Shang Yiran?

Hearing Gu Beicheng's words, Xu Tian quickly remembered the news he had heard in his previous life.

Shang Yiran was a singer at Tian Feng Entertainment, an entertainment company under the Yan Group. Because of his deep, magnetic voice and unique creative style, he had gained recognition from industry insiders.

Coupled with his handsome appearance and outstanding temperament, he had attracted countless fans who were crazy about him.

One year after his debut, he held a solo concert, and every show was sold out. His popularity and heat even threatened Xia Yuxuan, the national idol who had become popular because of a talent show.

And both Shang Yiran and Xia Yuxuan were singers with both idol and strength, and their resources overlapped extremely highly.

Therefore, they were often compared by the media, and privately, the fans of both sides had long accumulated grievances and were fighting fiercely.

Some time ago, Shang Yiran had just officially announced that he would sing the theme song for a tribute film, which meant he had officially received mainstream recognition, and his future was limitless.

But not long after the official announcement, he was exposed for this kind of scandal. If Shang Yiran was banned by the entertainment industry because of this...

Then most of the resources belonging to him would be snatched away by Xia Yuxuan, and his star path would be completely cut off.

"Currently, there is testimony from the victim girl, as well as accusations from her parents, and the several companies competing with us have also sent water armies to the field, especially Giant Star Media. They not only want to destroy Shang Yiran, but even want to destroy the reputation of Tian Feng Entertainment. If not handled well, it will be very troublesome."

"Can you confirm he was framed?"

Tang Bingyan had some impression of Shang Yiran. She had met him once at the annual meeting before, and he didn't look like a pervert who would molest a minor.

However, she wouldn't easily draw conclusions about anything. If Shang Yiran was really a pervert who raped a minor, she would absolutely not tolerate it.

"I asked Shang Yiran's manager, and I can be 100% sure he was framed."

Gu Beicheng's people had immediately conducted an investigation after the incident, and now they could be 100% sure that Shang Yiran was framed.

But for things like molesting underage girls, even if he was splashed with dirty water, he couldn't prove his innocence at all.

And even if it really went to court, the case trial cycle was long. Even if the court could return justice to Shang Yiran in the end, his reputation during this period could not be restored.

The company's public relations department suggested reaching a private settlement with the girl's parents to let them withdraw the lawsuit, but this would also have a great impact on Shang Yiran's reputation.

Shang Yiran was one of the company's most profitable singers at present, and he had many endorsements and commercial performance contracts in his hands. Now, brand parties had already sent lawyer letters intending to terminate their contracts with him.

"Bingyan, if this matter is not handled properly, it will cause a huge impact on the reputation of Tian Feng Entertainment. How do you think we should handle it later?"

Although Gu Beicheng came to ask Tang Bingyan for instructions, he actually knew that there was no other solution to this matter. It could only be handled by the company coming forward to reach a settlement with the girl's family, and at the same time, pushing other singers in the company to take over Shang Yiran's resources.

After all, lawsuits have long cycles, and the company is not doing charity. Being able to minimize losses is what company decision-makers should consider.

After Gu Beicheng was silent for a moment, he spoke again: "Bingyan, Shang Yiran has earned a lot of money for the company anyway. If we want to abandon the car to protect the commander this time, is it a bit too unfeeling?"

"Are there any other solutions?" Tang Bingyan asked expressionlessly.

"No."

Gu Beicheng shook his head: "The most tricky thing is that we can't produce evidence to prove that the other party framed him, and now the media are all pushing the waves toward the 'victim' side."

"Then do as you said before."

Tang Bingyan's expression still had no fluctuation. She was the company's decision-maker, not a philanthropist, so she naturally had to put the company's interests first.

"Wife."

Just at this moment, Xu Tian, who was sitting on the bed, suddenly said: "I have a way to expose the framer and return Shang Yiran's innocence."

Xu Tian remembered that the same thing happened in his previous life.

After Shang Yiran made money, he began to sponsor poor students, and sometimes he would even personally invite those students to dinner to encourage them to study hard.

And this time, it was just that the parents of the underage girl, in order to blackmail for huge compensation, taught their daughter to lie, guided public opinion to splash dirty water on Shang Yiran, and framed him for molesting and raping a minor.

He also remembered that in his previous life, although the lying level of these parents was not high, the court did not sentence Shang Yiran to be guilty, but because public opinion had already been raging, and the company was eager to stop losses, they chose to settle with the girl's family.

Therefore, Shang Yiran was considered by public opinion to be guilty, and instead received more intense scolding and accusations, and Shang Yiran's star path was ruined because of this.

But a few years later, perhaps because the little girl had always felt guilty toward Shang Yiran, she finally came out to clarify under huge pressure, and the outside world finally knew the truth of the matter.

Although he had received countless sympathy from netizens after the truth came to light, that sympathy could not provide him with any substantial help.

But the late truth could not let Shang Yiran climb to the top again.

His career and future had long plummeted because of that framing, and he could never turn over.

The originally dazzling and brilliant star fell because of the greed of the framer, which made Xu Tian sigh with emotion.

Xu Tian himself could very well understand the feeling of being framed and ruined, and plus Shang Yiran was an artist under Tang Bingyan's company, so he also wanted to try his best to help Tang Bingyan minimize losses.

"Mr. Xu?"

Before Tang Bingyan could speak, Gu Beicheng said with some disapproval:

"I can understand your desire to help, but the entertainment industry's public relations water is too deep. If you don't have experience, I'm afraid..."

Xu Tian ignored Gu Beicheng's questioning and looked at Tang Bingyan seriously.

"According to the plan you discussed before, at most, it is to reach a settlement with the girl's family. In this way, not only will you have to pay huge compensation, but you will also lose Shang Yiran's reputation and acting career."

"Wife, believe me, I have 100% certainty that I can not only clear Shang Yiran's name but also let the framer get the punishment they deserve."

"Taking a step back, even if my method is not successful, you can still adopt the strategy just now and reach a settlement with the victim, so it's better to let me try first." ===== CHAPTER 85 =====
