Chapter 62 Termination of Contract

Thus, in the video, only the person under interrogation could be seen with their head lowered, sitting on the “confession chair.” The police would ask a question, and they would answer.

When asked why they thought of scamming people in this way this time, their response was straightforward.

— “I looked online and saw that people believe whatever they are told. I thought, isn’t this easier to scam than before?”

— “Regret it, really regret it. Never thought it would escalate this much. I won’t dare to do it again. I need to apologize to them.”

Once again, the internet was in an uproar.

— “Confession chair, as long as you sit on it, you’ll confess. A magical chair.”

— “Satisfied now? Some of those obsessed fan groups have now become infamous beyond their circle. I watched it — several news stations reported on it. The whole country knows. Even the scammers think some crazy fans are simple-minded, easy to deceive, and even willing to give money.”

After all, they had insisted on attacking Yu Mozhi just for the sake of it. Anything negative about Yu Mozhi, they would cling to without letting go, resembling rabid dogs that wouldn’t stop biting until their target was dead.

Those celebrities who had previously taken the moral high ground, claiming they wanted to seek justice for others and denouncing Yu Mozhi’s actions as shameless, were now dumbfounded. They were busy explaining that they were merely misled by rumors.

Meanwhile, Liu Wu’s side quickly received negotiation requests from the other party. Their lawyers had already filed claims for breach of contract, initiating legal proceedings. However, since the breach was established, the previous contract naturally lost its legal effect during the public trial, and the termination of the contract was successful.

At the same time, a new account named “Yu Mozhi Studio” appeared on Weibo.

This account drew the final curtain on the entire matter.

Although Yu Mozhi never issued any further statements, everyone basically knew the truth by now. This entire mess was orchestrated by Suiyue Liuguang. Moreover, the verification tag under Yue Han’s Weibo account had already changed, now showing him as an artist of Yu Mozhi Studio.

Yu Mozhi still had some connections in hand. Within a few days, the breach of contract issue was resolved. It wasn’t long before the news that Suiyue Liuguang would soon be paying a huge penalty for breach of contract hit the top trending searches.

This incident also had a severe backlash on other artists who had originally participated. For example, Jiang Nianyue, who had many brain-dead fans, had previously staged a public rebuttal scene, receiving little negative feedback. But now, the tables had turned. People were asking: Weren’t you claiming to be bullied? The higher-ups all know what your real status is, so how exactly did Yu Mozhi bully you?

If there was no bullying, then why didn’t you speak up to clarify that Yu Mozhi wasn’t abusing his power? Instead, you used his popularity to climb up.

The executives at Suiyue Liuguang were now holding emergency meetings one after another.

Their misjudgment of the situation, especially their misjudgment of Yu Mozhi, had caused Suiyue Liuguang to suffer a massive fallout. The bigger the malice they had towards Yu Mozhi online, the stronger the backlash once people realized they had been used. Combined with the pent-up anger of Yu Mozhi’s fans, who had stayed silent until now, this wave of backlash was intense and overwhelming. Suiyue Liuguang’s PR team could no longer manage the situation.

Several artists under Suiyue Liuguang had already lost job offers, and many endorsements had been canceled. Even Fuli Tanghuang Jewelry Studio, which had believed they had shaken off Yu Mozhi and latched onto new traffic, was now in a panic.

However, as a high-end custom jewelry brand, ordinary citizens who were boycotting them couldn’t afford their products anyway.
