Chapter 94 - The Internet Is Deep! Chun Chun is Stunned!

“This channel is really interesting.” Qin Lin couldn’t help but sneer. He knew very well what his ketchup tasted like.

The tourists’ comments were also the most truthful. On the other hand, the video of ‘Internet Celebrity Products Counterfeiters Chun Chun’ was definitely fake.

But the key was that her videos were believed by the fans and they all supported her. Who would know how many of the videos were paid for?

The waters of the Internet were too deep. Ordinary people could not play around at all. They could only be pawns for these Internet celebrities and be played around.

Therefore, the officials had to strictly rectify the unhealthy atmosphere. Otherwise, the atmosphere would be easily led astray.

“It’s clearly fake, but so many people believe it.” Zhao Moqing said helplessly, “Qin Lin, this woman must have received some money.”

“It might not be Tasty.” Qin Lin shook his head and said, “After all, the other party is defaming us, so we won’t sit back and wait for death. If we retaliate, we will definitely target Tasty. If things turn around, Tasty will definitely be hated by the netizens.”

“I understand.” Zhao Moqing nodded and said, “Then it’s not Tasty. It must be another brand. They defamed us and made us find the wrong person. It’s killing two birds with one stone.”

However, Qin Lin said, “Then what if Tasty also thinks that we’ll think the same way and do the opposite? When the time comes, we’ll use this excuse to deceive them. Everyone will also think that it’s very reasonable. They might even sympathize with only Tasty and increase their popularity. Which product in the online society doesn’t want to be famous?”

“…” Zhao Moqing was stunned. After Qin Lin said this, she felt that her brain was not working well enough.

This is simply indistinguishable.

Zhao Moqing could only say, “Then we’ll send a lawyer’s letter to sue that Internet celebrity, Chun Chun.”

“The lawsuit is one thing.” Qin Lin frowned and said, “But if the other party dares to post it, they might have already prepared a countermeasure. At most, they will argue about it in the end. The result of the lawsuit might be half a year later. It’s even possible that such a dispute will last for more than a year. Otherwise, everyone wouldn’t say that the road to human rights is very difficult.”

“This is too troublesome. We can’t wait that long.” Zhao Moqing felt that he couldn’t understand the Internet at all.

Could it be that he was really trying to deny the rumors?

Qin Lin naturally knew that he couldn’t ignore this situation. Otherwise, there would be a wave of so-called bloggers and verified accounts slandering Qinglin Ketchup.

Why did these people have to put themselves on the moral high ground?

Qin Lin thought for a moment and thought about the anti-exploitation topics he had learned in university. There were measures to deal with this situation.

At that time, his mentor came up with a question similar to his situation. The thesis he wrote even got him into the top three.

And he had written about self-mockery at the time. It couldn’t get any darker. When it was so dark that even others thought it was ridiculous, everyone would think it was so fake.

The Internet world was extremely black and white.

After some thought, Qin Lin called Qin Ren.

As soon as the call went through, Qin Ren’s voice sounded. “Lin Zi, you’re really annoying. The Internet has been hacked again. Are you asking for ghostwriters again?”

Qin Lin said, “Yes, post a video for the ghostwriters to defame my ketchup. The more they defame me, the better. Then, tag ‘Internet Celebrity Products Counterfeiters Chun Chun’ and say that they support her. It’s best if they implicate those tourists. Scold the tourists as shills, the worse the better. Tell me the fee and I’ll transfer it to you directly.”

He couldn’t use the villa or his own account for this matter. Otherwise, it would be a big problem if he left a trail behind. Qin Ren had connections, so it was best to use Qin Ren to do it. If the other party knew how to avoid leaving a trail, he wouldn’t use his exposed account to do this.

“Understood.” Qin Ren hung up and started to contact Qin Lin.

As time passed, the videos of ‘Internet Celebrity Products Counterfeiters Chun Chun’ became more and more popular. Just as Qin Lin had guessed, more and more bloggers and big V Internet celebrities began to appear. They posted videos to gain popularity and became envoys of justice. Videos with various headlines began to appear:

“I was looking forward to Qinglin Ketchup. To be honest, after watching Chun Chun’s video, I no longer have any desire to buy Qinglin Ketchup.”

“Product promotion may be a little exaggerated, but it’s a very low-level way to elevate yourself by belittling your own kind.”

“I have to say that Qinglin Villa, which established trust for tourists during the last medicinal honey incident, has fallen because of the ketchup. As expected, although it’s late, we should not be soft-hearted.”

“It’s not that the tomato sauce of Qinglin Villa can’t be sold for 15 yuan, but although Delmon is an American product, this price is also a formula that has been studied for many years. Qinglin Ketchup is…”

In fact, in a way, these people were high-level keyboard warriors. Every time there was a hot event, they swarmed forward like flies smelling rotten meat. They just rubbed against it.

Once things turned around, they’d be sure to go back to delete the video, or apologize, and say that they’d been influenced by Chun Chun’s video. They were also victims, and they could turn the tables and ride on her popularity.

Most importantly, these people had quite a number of fans. As these people joined in, more people were guided, as if judging Qinglin Ketchup had become a hot topic.

After all, they had never tasted Qinglin Ketchup before. Under the seemingly righteous video of beating up fake people, and with so many bloggers and verified accounts posting videos to gain popularity, it was naturally difficult to tell if it was real or fake.

Qinglin Ketchup’s reputation was ruined. Even the netizens started scolding Qinglin Ketchup.

“Qinglin Villa is really crazy about money. They even sell disgusting food at a high price.”

“As expected, the medicinal honey water was just a foundation. After establishing trust, they started cutting leeks. Good move.”

“…”

Deng Guang anxiously called Qin Lin. “President Qin, shouldn’t we clarify the situation online?”

“Not for the time being. I’m already handling this matter,” Qin Lin said directly. In this situation, it was useless to clarify. Most netizens did not have the ability to distinguish the authenticity of the Internet.

On the other side.

Chun Chun was also in a hotel with her assistant, watching the situation online. The popularity had exceeded her imagination, and she could receive the additional income.

“Let the other party transfer the money,” Chun Chun instructed her assistant smugly as she dipped a biscuit into the ketchup beside her and ate it. “I have to say, this Qinglin Ketchup is really good. I can only blame it for becoming popular so quickly.”

The so-called exposing counterfeits were just a cover-up for benefits. In the end, it was just to attract fans and use them to make money. As long as she was paid to do things without being discovered by the fans, she was the most righteous person to fight the counterfeits.

Soon, the assistant said, “The other party has already transferred the money.”

“Very straightforward indeed. Open a bottle of wine to celebrate,” Chun Chun instructed the assistant with a smile.

However, just as the wine was opened and before they could celebrate, another assistant suddenly frowned and said, “Chun Chun, something doesn’t seem right. The number of people in Qinglin Villa has suddenly increased.”

“Doesn’t that mean it’s more popular?” said Chun Chun with a smile. “We can get some more fans.”

“See for yourself. These people are brainless haters.” The assistant handed the phone to Chun Chun.

Chun Chun looked at the phone and frowned too.

“Qinglin Ketchup tastes like shit. Someone actually said that it tastes good.”

“Qinglin Villa is indeed very unpalatable. I think those tourists are just dragging it out. They make such awful ketchup taste so good.”

“Support Chun Chun. Those tourists are all taste-sick, right? They eat shit and say it tastes good.”

“…”

These videos also became popular under such heated discussions. The key comment section was also filled with all kinds of people defaming Qinglin Villa and scolding them. Many of them were even brainless and had no bottom line.

“Aren’t these people causing trouble?” Chun Chun was instantly annoyed. Black people were also particular about methods. Enough was enough. They couldn’t say too much. They had to guide others into their own imaginations. Only if they imagined it themselves would they decide that it was indeed true.

Wasn’t this brainless and unscrupulous? Wasn’t this intentional?

This was going to cripple her.

“Chun Chun, something seems to be happening.” The assistant from before seemed a little anxious this time. “Just now, the Internet publicity fraud department in Ming City posted a video and even tagged us.”

“What?” Chun Chun’s expression changed subconsciously. She was in Ming City.

“We’ve always been committed to the management of online publicity scams. At first, we were attracted by the topic of fake publicity for Qinglin Ketchup. After all, it’s in our open market, so we personally bought Qinglin Ketchup to compare with Tasty. As for the result, it might be a matter of personal taste. It doesn’t seem to be as it’s said online. I hope @Chun Chun can come to the scene and verify it with us.”

Taking the video, Chun Chun’s scowl deepened.

How dare she? She knew exactly what was going on.

Besides, was this video clearly saying that she was faking it?

But how could the Internet publicity fraud department in the city pay attention to this matter for no reason? They even tagged her? She clearly made the video very appropriate.

Could it be that Qinglin Villa’s background was not simple? Did someone ask them to do so?

She was suddenly vaguely afraid.

At this moment, the other assistant was also shocked. “Chun Chun, the director of the tourism bureau in Youcheng County is also going to bring goods. There’s Qinglin Ketchup in the goods he brought. It seems to be a platform for Qinglin Ketchup?”

“???” Chun Chun was stunned.

She had only wanted to earn some extra money. Who knew that she would directly provoke two officials?
