Chapter 202: Paranoia!
The thirty-first day of the competition.
It was the final day of the highly anticipated competition.
When all the people who care are ready to give all the recommended tickets to the site they support on the last day.
was told that the game was aborted before it had even started.
Because, there was an accident that was difficult to control in this game.
Several Dolphin Net writers, led by Maple Grove, were leaving the hotel. found the organizer and cried about this game, and the writer of his team was insulted by the writer of xx.com, I am Fanfan.
Although this made the organizers feel ridiculous, the public relations team of Dolphin Network held a press conference at 9 o'clock in the morning to push the matter to a climax.
The organizers had to stop the competition and cooperate with the police and media to investigate this trumped-up "insulting incident".
As a result, when they found Yang Fan and asked him to accompany the police to confront the "victim" Xi Xi, they found that the poor writer was already lying on his bed, wrote a suicide note, and chose to end his life.
This made Yang Fan see the poor girl lying unconscious on the bed, and her emotions were completely out of control.
This also allowed Yang Fan to experience the distance between life and death for the first time...
When several tall policemen checked that Xi Xi was still breathing weakly, they quickly sent her to the hospital for rescue, and the policemen led by her read the suicide note in the poor girl's hand. He sighed and handed the long suicide note to Yang Fan.
Yang Fan endured his grief and snatched the letter and read it carefully, and then he sat down on the ground weakly.
On the paper that he dragged stiffly, the handwriting was beautiful:
"Dear parents, friends, classmates, and readers who love me,
Allow me to say sorry to you here, because I may never be able to accompany you again and update you with the novel in my heart.
Because, I decided to make an extreme choice, which was to end my own life.
Perhaps this decision will cause trouble for my parents and friends, but I think ending here will be a relief for you in the future, compared to the trouble that will be caused to you in the next few decades.
Here, I would like to start by thanking and apologizing to one person, that is, the writer I respect and admire the most, I am Fan Fan.
In my sixteen years of life, I have always been a trouble, a trouble in the eyes of my parents, classmates, and teachers, and when I thought I would always be a trouble, until I was fortunate enough to read your book "Looking Up at the Stars".
This book changed me, made me understand that persisting in writing can change a person's life, and made me understand even more that a person like me who has nothing and is not likable can only make himself popular if he writes desperately.
Here, I thank you and apologize to you at the same time.
Because, I can't give you all my referral votes in the future...
Maybe my referral votes are insignificant compared to your amazing stats, but I'd love to see my favorite writers, my favorite books, win this game. Unfortunately, I can't see it.
Okay, after apologizing to me Fan Fan, presumably the purpose of your coming here is to ask me whether Fan Fan has violated me, and my only answer is no.
How could a person as good as him look at a person like me who is useless, has no talent, and has no talent? As my best friend said, who wants to be friends with a pig?
Here, I finally implore you to stop using me to slander and slander some people, just like before, because of school violence, constantly harassing my classmates!
Please let me go! I'm so tired... It's almost time for me to go...
In the end, I finally wish my favorite writer I am Fan Fan, you will definitely be able to win the first place in this competition!"
This suicide note could not help Yang Fan completely clear his suspicion, but it changed Yang Fan in a real sense.
He began to understand a cruel truth, that is, in this era of entertainment first, dignity, morality, and bottom line are not important at all in the eyes of capitalists who rely on entertainment to make money.
After a day of surveillance and evidence collection on Yang Fan's whereabouts, he was finally sentenced to have nothing to do with the matter.
When Yang Fan walked out of the police station, the sentence of the suicide note repeatedly appeared in Yang Fan's mind: "I'm sorry, my most respected writer Yang Fan, please forgive me, I may not be able to vote for you in the future." ”
This repeated sentence in his mind made Yang Fan's steps towards the hotel heavier and heavier, and also made him fall into deep self-blame and regret.
Blaming himself, when he was able to borrow a seat to stimulate him in Lanyue, how good a shot was, although it was very likely that he would be disqualified from the competition, but at least he could save a life.
regretted that when he bought breakfast for other writers of Dolphin Network that day, he blamed her for changing her, so maybe it made her stronger, and maybe she wouldn't make such an extreme choice in the end.
He kept regretting and blaming himself, and because of this regret and self-blame, the paranoia and extremism hidden in his bones completely exploded.
This paranoia and extremism made him want to take revenge for this girl, and made him want to make all those who bullied and insulted this poor girl pay an indelible price for the rest of their lives.
At the headquarters of Dolphin Network, although it is still the same as in the past, the work is carried out in an orderly manner. But there is a hint of unease.
Xi Xi's suicide and suicide note, under the exposure of some unscrupulous media at the local police station, came into the eyes of the public and the Internet.
This suicide incident involves many things, such as school violence, online violence, popularity, and who is important in dreams and life.
All the fingers pointed at the school, the game and the Dolphins, but these three companies, which can be said to be known as behemoths, made a statement of shirking responsibility at the first time.
In particular, Dolphin.com, under the operation of an efficient public relations team, pointed out the loophole in the third article of the suicide note, and wanted to put the responsibility on the xx network behind Fan Fan and me.
Although this kind of mentally retarded remarks are not credible in the eyes of most people, they have become the best outlet for some Weidaofu who want to show justice, so they spontaneously organized to attack Yang Fan's Weibo.
When they happily attacked on Weibo, Yang Fan, who had been completely changed by paranoia, began to make decisions he had never made.
It was the law firm that contacted Ange and sent a lawyer's letter to those trolls and dolphin nets.
When Yang Fan's Weibo was full of lawyers' letters, the online mob and Dolphin began to be stunned.
Because, they didn't expect that this online writer, who is difficult to post on Weibo once or twice a year, has such a tough attitude.
Most of them silently deleted their Weibo posts and chose to escape from their "belief in justice".
Of course, in addition to the dolphin net, it can't wait to look forward to the impact of Yang Fan, a small writer, and his hard steel.
However, on February 1st. That is, on the second day of Xi Xi's suicide, Yang Fan spent a huge price of donating 300,000 materials and submitting the certificate of no crime from the police station, so that his school and the official WeChat account of xx.com showed his attitude of support.
This kind of statement by a company of the same type and even more behemoths than itself made Dolphin Network panic.
They deleted Weibo and sent a private message to Yang Fan to discuss compensation, but found that Yang Fan just replied with a sentence of "blood debt and blood payment" and blocked them.
For the first time, they began to feel scared and daunted.
It is also very ironic that this fear and fear should have appeared on the day Xi Xi's suicide was reported, but it ended up in Yang Fan's lawyer's letter.
At this time, Li Yi was in a meeting with the management of Dolphin Network, he had not slept for a day and a night, and the suicide of Xi Xi was out of his information, but it did not make him feel the slightest guilt, he just regretted that his plan was only a loophole.
Not only Liyi, but Xi Xi's suicide, no one felt guilty, including Feng Lin and others who forced her to commit suicide, they just felt a little sorry.
Don't think it's alarmist, the person who really chooses to end his life will not regret and change because of your suicide in the end, except for your parents and a few of your closest friends!
Li Yi looked at the expressionless high-level executives, and he sighed, because he was now only thinking about how to eliminate the influence of Xi Xi's suicide.
However, whether it is to blame a lowercase like Yang Fan, or to bring the trouble to the host school, the price of failure is something he can't afford.
Especially Yang Fan, the kind of paranoia he showed and his background made Li Yi feel scared for the first time.
Listening to the painless suggestions in the meeting, as well as the high-level people who were in a hurry, they finally made a last resort.
That decision was that he called Wang Tianhe to confess, hoping that through Wang Tianhe, I would let Fan Fan give up chasing and beating him.
However, when he was about to call Wang Tianhe after the meeting, the familiar name of Mr. Zhou appeared on his mobile phone.
He hesitated for a moment and went out to answer Mr. Zhou's call.
The call was long, half an hour of conversation.
When he hung up the phone, a smile hung on his face, because of Mr. Zhou's suggestion, so that he would not be so passive anymore.
Walking into the conference room, he smiled at the busy executives and said:
"There's a solution!"
"What's the solution?" the higher-ups scrambled.
"That solution is waste utilization! Use the rescued waste to choose us again!"
=== Dividing line
ps: Talk about Xi Xi's choice to commit suicide and why the suicide note did not point out the problem of framing.
1 is the contract problem that Fenglin said in yesterday's update, Xi Xi is a 16-year-old child, although he has grown up a lot because of cruelty. But she always lost to ignorance of the law. Generally, the writer who participates in the competition will sign a breach of contract, and she is afraid that because of the breach of contract, her family will pay a huge amount of compensation.
This is also the troublesome problem mentioned in her suicide note.
2 is that she still has luck in her heart, and she thinks that she can use her death to change this distorted society. So she chose to hide the truth from those who framed her. This kind of luck is the price of kindness. It was also the last sentence she said, don't use yourself to ruin some people. She was afraid that after confessing, the website would use her to destroy the Dolphin writers who participated in the competition.
3 is her self-esteem and love of writing, everyone has self-esteem, but it is not obvious, she also has it. Her self-esteem is expressed in her self-deprecation that she is a writer with no talent and no talent, which makes her feel a little inferior. It is also the main reason why she chose to commit suicide. And the writing enthusiasm she originally relied on for survival was revealed to be useless, so she finally pinned her unwarranted hopes on Yang Fan in order to seek comfort in her heart.
This hopeless and distorted life eventually led her to make the decision to commit suicide.
