Chapter 454: Justice Will Always Be Served
After the first person came forward to apologize, the rest followed and apologized sincerely to Lin Zihan. After all, this could be considered negligent reporting when everyone believed something without finding out the truth.
“Mr. Lin Zihan, please rest assured. We will reserve the front page of our newspaper for you to seriously explain this matter. Once again, I apologize to you. I’m sorry!”
“That’s right, Mr. Lin Zihan. We will definitely speak the truth for you. It was our fault that we didn’t find out the truth and misunderstood you. My apologies!”
Netizens watching the live broadcast cheered when they saw Su Xue being taken away. They also felt extremely guilty when they saw the reporters apologize. They had abused Lin Zihan online from the very beginning, and now that they have learned the truth, they also typed their apologies.
“I’m sorry, Lin Zihan. It was our fault. We believed the two-faced hypocrite and misunderstood you. We are so sorry!”!!
“Justice may arrive late, but it will always be served. Lin Zihan, I’m sorry!”
“Lin Zihan, I’ll be your hardcore fan from now on. I’ll support any TV series or movie that you’re in and use whatever product that you endorse. Please forgive us!”
The directors who were watching the live stream and advertisers who had terminated their contracts with Lin Zihan realized that they had misunderstood him. At the same time, they saw the business opportunity in this incident and called to apologize and asked for his participation again.
“Mr. Lin Zihan, I have a very good script right now but I need a male lead. This role is very suitable for you. Price is not a problem if you can join us. Kindly consider our offer!”
“Mr. Lin Zihan, we are an international brand and we are looking for a good spokesperson. I wonder if you are willing to be our spokesperson. Of course, price is not a problem!”
In less than two hours after the press conference ended, brands that hadn’t terminated their contracts with Lin Zihan earned crazy amounts of money. Any product endorsed by Lin Zihan sold out quickly. In the following months, viewership continued to rise for films and television programs starring Lin Zihan!
Lin Zihan had become the hottest male star of the moment who’s also a skillful thespian. Although Lin Zihan had been misunderstood by everyone at the start of this incident, now that the misunderstanding had been resolved, he had gained countless fans.
The phone operators at Mango Entertainment were also extremely busy. Countless calls came in, asking to collaborate with Lin Zihan. There were countless scripts and endorsements; everyone wanted to work with Lin Zihan.
Su Jin’s popularity also soured on the internet after this perfect PR incident. She was even referred to as the most popular manager and her fan base kept growing. Almost every netizen would say that Su Jin was a bold but careful, courageous and kind manager.
Many netizens also expressed their regret. Su Jin was so good-looking. She could have been a star herself but she chose to work hard behind the scenes. There were even netizens who strongly urged Su Jin to join the entertainment industry.
After the press conference ended, Su Jin, Lin Zihan, and Lin Zihan’s previous manager who terminated his contract returned to the company offices and entered the chairman’s office. The manager naturally received numerous calls about collaboration with Lin Zihan.
He acted as if nothing had happened as he talked to Lin Zihan about his upcoming schedule. He would not miss out on the opportunity now that Lin Zihan was a big shot. Lin Zihan’s face was cold; he did not forget what his manager had done. He threw a contract termination agreement at his manager and said coldly,
“I always thought that you were my friend, but you actually did that. For the sake of our friendship, I will let you keep your dignity. Sign this contract termination agreement now and we will consider this your resignation!”
The executives and shareholders who followed them back to the office were impressed when they saw this. Lin Zihan was indeed a best actor. He was so haggard moments ago, but now he was a domineering and cold CEO.
His manager was stunned at first. He was going to pretend that nothing had happened so he could hang on to Lin Zihan. He did not expect that Lin Zihan would fire him the moment they came back. He pleaded immediately,
“Zihan, give me another chance. We have worked together for so many years and have long become brothers. We were also ex-classmates. If you trust me one more time, I promise I will not be so muddle-headed in future, okay?”
