Chapter 99 Traffic Counterattack
Yang Weihu took out his phone and transferred several thousand yuan to his son.
"Go get a haircut, shave your beard, and change into a new set of clothes. Don't just stay indoors playing video games all day."
Yang Xu did not agree and turned to walk to a corner to start playing games on his phone.
With his disheveled appearance, if it weren't for his relatively clean clothes, he would probably be mistaken for a homeless person.
But Yang Xu didn't care.
Back when he was in college, he was quite a handsome young man. His family was well-off, and he was good-looking, so he had a nice girlfriend.
On his girlfriend's birthday, he picked up a Ferrari. He felt like he had everything in life, and all his classmates and friends envied him.
Unfortunately, an accident happened soon afterward.
He was in a car accident on the very first day after picking up the car. Although neither he nor his girlfriend were seriously injured, they only suffered minor injuries.
But when Yang Xu drove the car to the repair shop, he discovered that the Ferrari he had bought for millions was actually a flood-damaged car, which was the direct cause of the brake failure and the accident.
It wasn't that he was driving badly.
Yang Xu angrily went to the seller that same day to demand an explanation, but was met with only perfunctory responses.
For two months straight, he didn't even get to see the other party's boss.
In the end, they had no choice but to resort to online rights protection, holding up signs and squatting in front of the store to film videos and livestream.
The situation escalated.
Yang Xu thought he was going to succeed, but the result was that the other party hired a professional lawyer and directly sued him for crimes such as infringement of reputation, defamation and insult.
Without mentioning the vehicle issue, he not only failed to protect his rights, but also had to pay the other party a sum of money.
Although the amount of money lost was not much, it had a significant impact on Yang Xu.
The news quickly spread online.
Yang Xu instantly transformed from a victim into someone who caused an accident due to his own driving mistake and then tried to demand compensation by shirking responsibility.
Although his girlfriend believed in him, she couldn't withstand the pressure from public opinion and ultimately chose to break up with him.
His classmates and friends openly and subtly mocked him, making Yang Xu feel ashamed and unable to hold his head up at school.
He left school early, went home to laze around, and ended up like this.
Does Yang Xu hate him?
Of course I hate him, but there's nothing I can do. Although his family has some money, it's still insignificant compared to truly wealthy people.
"Excuse me, is the boss in?"
"This is me. What would you like to eat?"
"We're not here for a meal; we want to talk to Yang Xu about something."
Yang Weihu was overjoyed to see several girls coming to find his son.
"Yes, yes, he's here."
"Xiao Xu, come here quickly, your friend is looking for you."
Yang Xu stepped forward and looked at the group: "Do we know each other?"
Liu Nini shook her head: "I don't know him."
"But I've heard your story."
Looking at the dejected man in front of her, Liu Nini found it hard to imagine what kind of blow he must have suffered to become like this.
Yang Xu frowned, thinking the other party was there to laugh at him.
Fortunately, Liu Nini explained in time: "Some of our friends have also gone to Wang Dongnian to seek redress, but in the end, just like you, nothing came of it."
"I came here to tell you that I have contacted many victims like you and formed a rights protection group. Together we will expose Wang Dongnian and his company and give society the truth."
Yang Xu's heart skipped a beat, but he clearly didn't believe that these girls could accomplish what he had tried for half a year but failed to do back then.
"Forget it, I'm not interested."
Liu Nini said, "It's not that you're not interested, it's that you don't trust us, right?"
"Yes, what makes you think you can succeed?"
"Are you aware of Wang Dongnian's influence at Tianjin Tianhai?"
Liu Nini took out a document she had prepared in advance.
This is a collection of evidence that Xiao Mo compiled and sent to her. Although it's just online rumors, President Lu said that all he needs is traffic, and whether there's any real evidence is unimportant.
"Look, these are all news stories that were buried back then."
Yang Xu glanced at it briefly and realized that not all media outlets were defaming him, the victim, back then.
There are still people who have spoken up for him, but the number of people who spoke up is too small, and even he, the person involved, only found out about it now.
"You saw it, and then what?"
Despite this, Yang Xu still held no hope.
Liu Nini then produced another contract: "This is the contract we signed with the largest local law firm, hiring professional lawyers."
"Furthermore, we have already contacted seven media outlets of all sizes, as well as eleven news bloggers with more than 400,000 followers. We will also look for more channels to promote the story and present it to the public in a short period of time."
"Rights protection cannot be without the victims. We are ready. As the person who was most severely victimized back then, I hope you can join us in uncovering the truth and clearing your name."
Yang Xu flipped through the documents that had been taken out from the other side, and the more he looked, the more alarmed he became.
The legal team they hired alone cost a very large sum of money.
Not to mention the huge number of news media outlets and news bloggers that followed.
"Who exactly are you people, and why are you helping me?"
Liu Nini smiled.
"It's not about helping you, it's about helping the victims protect their rights. That's what our boss said; he wants to clear your names."
Yang Xu's eyes gradually reddened, and he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, saying, "Fine, just tell me what you want me to do."
Seeing that the persuasion was going smoothly, Liu Nini breathed a sigh of relief.
"You don't need to give anything. Just keep this attitude. A reporter will come to interview you later. Just tell me everything that happened back then."
"Remember, it's best to make yourself sound more pitiful, try to get as much attention as possible. Someone will teach you how, and you can just modify it slightly according to your own situation."
Yang Xu nodded in agreement.
Having persuaded the main person involved in this rights protection effort, Liu Nini got up and left with two assistants.
She still had a lot to do. Although she had been to Tianhai before, she was still unfamiliar with the place. With such a big commotion, she had to act quickly, otherwise it would be too late once others realized what was happening.
One day later.
On platforms like Douyin, Manjiao, Weibo, and others, a number of short videos spontaneously posted by victims of rights protection have gradually emerged.
Over the next few hours, news media outlets and bloggers began to share and comment on these videos of rights protection, each analyzing the events behind them.
Only 24 hours have passed.
These videos were forcibly pushed to the top of the trending searches by some mysterious force. People who like to watch borderline videos, watch military videos, like movie reviews, and people from all walks of life were pushed these rights protection news.
A mysterious force forcefully broke through the information cocoon, bringing these previously reported news stories back to the public eye.
Wang Dongnian's home.
"Dad, Dad, something terrible has happened!"
Wang Dongnian, who was playing chess with Jia Zhong, frowned as he looked at his son who had just returned from abroad.
"After being out there for so long, I'm still so anxious."
Wang Xiangyang said anxiously, "What's with the anxiety? Dad, you're trending on social media, and netizens are calling you a ruthless businessman who'll kill off his lineage. I'm suddenly unable to have a son, and you're saying I'm anxious?"
