A long time ago, Li Si had noticed that the vetting system in this world was very broad.
Although there were still some red lines that should never be touched. However, compared to the previous world, many film and television works with sensitive subjects could appear on the screen with a straight face.
Tapping his finger on the screen, he was browsing the largest video website in the country, [Crackle].
It could be seen that the heat of a video marked in red on the leaderboard was climbing.
The small flame icon next to the video proved that it was the most played video in the last 24 hours.
The video title is sensational.
"Journalist Risks His Life, He Yun Murderer Reveals the Inside Story of the Crime".
This title was gimmicky enough and very eye-catching. Li Si saw his face appear on the screen as soon as he clicked in.
...
"Raising little birds, meaning adopting children and raising them to either steal or sell. Doing whatever."
...
"Trafficking is the business of trading your conscience for money, but of course, the guys have to be professionals. Amateur groups don't enforce it that well, and they're all scared out of their wits when the police kick in the door."
...
"A trafficker's den? Heh, I'm familiar with this one. Firstly it has to be easy to escape, so it can't be near a major traffic route. Secondly it's hidden enough. Lastly, they have to find a place [to store goods] and will definitely need a basement."
...
The video shows Li Si being so knowledgeable about various criminal techniques that it's mind-blowing just to hear them.
The filmmaker is clearly a veteran of photography as well, not only does the camera move, but it keeps shifting angles to perfectly reflect Li Si's demeanour.
In short, one sentence.
This thing doesn't look like a good person(y)!
Mei was not surprised, she had watched Li Si beat up a human trafficker from close range.
But Feng Su couldn't sit still.
"Who filmed this, how can you slander us like this!" She said bitterly.
Mei and Li Si looked at each other and both wisely chose not to speak.
Li Si did feel a little strange though.
He could guess that the video was recorded by the screenwriter, but why was it leaked online?
The car drove all the way downstairs and Feng Su didn't have time to cook.
There wasn't even time to ask Mei what was going on and why she followed them home. With an anxious look on her face, she hurriedly gave a few instructions and ran out of the house with her mobile phone.
And after Feng Su left, Li Si also immediately called Director Tian.
"Hello? It's Little Li." Director Tian on the other end of the phone was smiling as if he had encountered something good.
"Director Tian, that video on the internet ..." Li Si had just said a few sentences when he suddenly realised something: "It can't be?"
The video had just been recorded and existed in the screenwriter's camera.
Even if someone stole the camera and took it for backup, it wouldn't be that fast.
Then the answer was obvious.
The video was put online by Director Tian on his own initiative.
Li Si opened his computer and found the promotional account for Director Tian's film.
As expected, the promotional slogan of the latest video had changed to [Truly restoring the ecology of criminals, bringing you the glamour of standing on the edge of the law].
Bad, there are bad people inside the crowd.
Li Si clicked on his Twitter blog and found that the comment section had completely become a netizen orgy.
[Already called the police]
[Alarmed +1]
[+2]
[He Yun Road Public Security Bureau Comrade police! There's a criminal here, take care of it!]]
He's so skilled, guess how many years he'll get?
Night? Night? Sleeping? No? Click to jump to yesel...].
Oh, that last one doesn't count.
Li Si silently memorised the URL and flipped back a few pages.
He found that when he flipped back, the user comments were much calmer, and a few people were guessing that it might be a promotional tactic for the TV show.
But sensible people were ultimately in the minority.
So Li Si went into the background and deleted the few comments that were most incendiary, banning the corresponding accounts.
Unexpectedly, this stirred up the hornet's nest even more, and the comment section was full of [hahahaha].
He fell into deep thought, and only after studying for a while did he realise that he had just actually banned [Jinmen Net Police] and [Wuhu Criminal Police Brigade] for a hundred days.
As soon as the computer closed, Li Si slumped in his chair.
Tired, whatever. Whatever.
I am directly a lying flat.
Director Tian comforted him on the phone:
"Don't mind those comments, this is all a normal means of promotion. When the heat drops in a few days, we'll immediately dispel the rumours."
"Just don't go out in these two days, we'll explain it to you on the police side."
Li Si didn't worry about what the police would do to him.
After all, he had only just made a big achievement, and the police system had a particularly good impression of him, belonging to someone in the White Road.
What he was really chagrined about was that he had wanted to be a good, law-abiding actor. Why did it turn out to be like this now?
No, the public image must be reversed!
Li Si slapped his thighs fiercely, startling the Meis who were stealing ice cream.
"I-I didn't steal it."
The little girl put the ice cream back as if nothing had happened.
Li Si walked towards her with a sullen and aggressive face. Mei was a little confused, almost thinking she was going to get beaten up.
"What are you going to do? Don't come over, I just ate a few bites of ice cream, as for beating someone up ..."
Li Si kept walking to the little girl and suddenly shoved his mobile phone to her.
Mei looked up uncertainly.
Only to see Li Si squat down and put his hands on her shoulders, "The task of reversing my image is in your hands, you are limited to come up with a plan within ten minutes!
Mei's small mouth slightly opened wide, she thought carefully, then said seriously, "Or you might as well beat me up."
Ten minutes later, Li Si and Mei were sitting in front of the table.
There were a dozen sheets of paper in front of them, as well as two pens. But no one had the intention of picking up a pen to write a few lines.
" The situation has now reached a critical point. I can no longer tolerate those people defaming me on the internet."
Li Si slapped the table.
Mei wanted to yawn and managed to hold it back.
"Why don't you go talk to Officer Qin and ask him to give you an anti-drug ambassador or something?" She blurted out an idea.
Li Si frowned, explaining in a serious tone that things like favours were used less than once.
This time, take the favour in exchange for the title of anti-drug ambassador.
When there was a real need to use Team Qin in the future, the other party might not be willing to help.
Mei wanted to say something, and was tempted to ask Li Si what favours he needed from a criminal police captain, and whether it was legal or not.
But thinking of Li Si's usual behaviour, she again felt that there was no need to ask.
Time passed by, and neither of them came up with any good ideas.
Until the clock hand pointed to nine o'clock, Feng Su came back, looking joyful.
"I talked to Director Tian. He said it's all for the sake of the film's box office, and that he owes us a favour this time."
She gleefully continued, "And then ... guess who I met? Film Emperor Liu Jinsheng! Liu Jinsheng told me that he happened to have a variety show arrangement recently, and he can bring you along."
"Variety show?"
"That's right." Feng Su put a bunch of information on the table. "It's a daily life variety show, 'Typical Chinese Restaurant'!"
"All you need to do is to help the other guests on the show more and act enthusiastic, wouldn't it be easy to turn your image around?"
Li Si's eyes lit up.
