Chapter 854: Target of the Crowd

While Xia Wanyuan was quietly attending classes, the news about her exploded again on the Internet.

The cause of the incident was an interview video. When a reporter from a certain television station entered the mountains to collect poverty alleviation materials, he met a family who rushed up to kneel and beg him to help them.

In the video, a silver-haired old man in ragged clothes was kowtowing to the reporter non-stop. His wrinkled face was covered in dust, and he kept shouting, “Save us, save us.”

The reporter helped the old man up. At that moment, the old man’s son and wife entered the camera and cried loudly to let the country give them justice. “There’s really no law. Oh my god!!! Our ancestors have lived in this house for so many years. Just because we wanted to make way for the factory, we were forcefully pushed away. Poor my parents are still living in the straw shed with us at the age of 80. Return my home!!!”

The video camera changed. A thin old man was squatting by the corner and cooking porridge. Not far from the fire was a bed made of straw. In a small and simple cottage, a large family lived.

This video quickly became popular on all the major websites. The netizens reposted the news and asked the local officials to give an explanation.

Once the flames of anger were ignited, coupled with the media’s fuel, the popularity of this matter soared. Countless people joined the team that denounced the entrepreneurs as heartless and the local management black-hearted and corrupted.

Some media outlets interviewed that resident overnight and learned about the factory that was currently being built. They wrote on the spot and posted it immediately, instantly pushing this piece of news that had already attracted tremendous attention up another step.

“According to the reporter of this newspaper, the scene of the incident was in Dongshan Village, which was filled with melons and fruits. The factory that occupied this family’s home belonged to the Xiafeng Corporation. The current chairman of the Xiafeng Corporation is the famous movie star, Xia Wanyuan.”

The already extremely popular news coupled with Xia Wanyuan immediately blew up on Weibo by the netizens.

The few sour scholars and the media who had criticized Xia Wanyuan for leading the literary world astray had been silent for a few days before finally finding a breakthrough.

“As expected, she even dares to market herself and sell a million dollars for a painting. What else can she not do? She’s covered in a dirty copper stench. I don’t understand what right she has to be a professor at Qing University.”

“@ Xia Wanyuan, come out and listen to the cries of the elders. When you slept in your luxurious house at night, didn’t your conscience feel a little uneasy?”

Xia Wanyuan’s fans did not believe that Xia Wanyuan was such a person. Furthermore, even if such a thing happened, as a chairman, Xia Wanyuan did not have the ability to control such a small factory under the corporation. Facing the overwhelming doubts and insults, the fans tried their best to explain for Xia Wanyuan.

[ She’s just the chairman and not the supervisor. You can say that she didn’t manage it well, but isn’t it too much to scold her for being heartless? ]

[ Some news about eating human blood steamed buns have been spreading for a long time. I’ve seen a lot of news reversals. Are you so anxious to come to a conclusion? ]

However, on one side was the extremely beautiful and noble Xia Wanyuan, who lived in a luxurious house and drove a sports car worth tens of millions, and on the other was the pitiful old man with ragged clothes and a head of silver hair.

People would not help but pity the weak. In addition, a group of brainless people who hated the rich mixed in to stir up everyone’s emotions.

In an instant, Xia Wanyuan became the target of everyone.
