Chapter 553: It's Not That Simple
The online public opinion was growing stronger.
Internet users are a group of people easily swayed by trends.
What was originally just a car accident turned into a major discussion topic due to Chen Fan's identity.
In the end, the focus of netizens' discussions shifted to the privileges of the wealthy, collusion between officials and businessmen, conspiracy theories...
As Chen Fan's reputation deteriorated, some people couldn't stand by silently anymore.
Naturally, the first to start counterattacking were the students of Yunhai University.
Chen Fan was a recent graduate of Yunhai University, making him everyone's senior brother.
Yunhai University finally had a star student, especially after the news of Baidu's 50 million yuan acquisition of Chen Fan's website, followed by Chen Fan's entrepreneurship award being posted online.
The most excited were undoubtedly the students of Yunhai University.
Senior Brother Chen had become everyone's idol.
Male students saw him as a role model to emulate, hoping that one day they could achieve the same level of success as Senior Brother Chen.
Female students privately viewed Chen Fan as the ideal boyfriend, the man of their dreams.
Especially those female students who had spent a year or two on the same campus as Chen Fan, they were so regretful that their intestines turned green.
If they had known there was such a person in school, why would they have wasted their precious youth on those losers?
Someone secretly dug up Chen Fan's student ID photo.
Even though it showed a very young and inexperienced look, in the eyes of some female students, it became synonymous with a rich and handsome guy.
Some outgoing girls even openly confessed their love to Senior Brother Chen on the campus forum.
The classrooms where Chen Fan had attended classes, the parking shed he had funded to renovate for the school, especially dorm 519 where Chen Fan had lived, became holy sites of pilgrimage for all students.
A student had already posted on the campus forum, willing to pay 5,000 yuan for the opportunity to live in that dorm room.
The only thing that escaped this fate was the apartment Chen Fan had bought, as not many people knew about it, so it temporarily avoided being surrounded by enthusiastic students for photo ops.
Perhaps even Chen Fan himself didn't know he had so many die-hard fans at the school.
Seeing the online public opinion attacking Senior Brother Chen, the students of Yunhai University were the first to organize and start a counterattack on various forums.
They specially argued and debated with those internet trolls.
Some people said Chen Fan was rich and had privileges.
The students cursed back: "Privileges my ass, where's your evidence? Show us the evidence!"
Some said Chen Fan killed someone in a car accident but didn't receive legal punishment?
The students replied: "Evidence? Everything needs evidence."
Some said Chen Fan was rich and had already bribed people to handle relationships.
The students fiercely denounced the other side for conspiracy theories and jealousy of others' wealth.
Of course, when encountering those internet trolls who had no reason to talk and only wanted to stir up trouble, the students didn't hold back either. They immediately fired back.
When educated people start insulting others, it's quite a colorful sight.
To protect everyone's Senior Brother Chen, the students spontaneously formed small groups, with different groups responsible for different forums, and had relevant students in charge of what methods to use when replying to different types of people.
Unfortunately, faced with the vast number of netizens, relying solely on the students of Yunhai University, their strength was still too weak.
Soon, the students gradually fell into a disadvantage.
Some girls were even brought to tears by those unreasonable netizens full of conspiracy theories or foul language.
As the students were retreating step by step, the situation took a slight turn.
A netizen posted claiming to have been at the scene of the accident, and published a photo of the accident scene.
He firmly stated that he saw with his own eyes that it was the black car that first drove against traffic and was about to hit someone.
Perhaps Chen Fan had no choice but to do what he did to save people.
As soon as this news came out, it was immediately ridiculed by those trolls, who cursed that even if they wanted to help Chen Fan overturn the case, couldn't they think of a better reason? How could they come up with such an excuse?
Soon after, someone else dropped another big piece of news.
The girl that the black car was about to hit was Chen Fan's girlfriend.
Chen Fan had to run the red light to save his girlfriend.
At this point, public opinion seemed to take a slight turn.
However, soon after, a large number of netizens jumped out to curse that what these informants said was all fake, and that they must have been paid to deliberately confuse the public.
On Yunhai University's side, some classmates posted about some of the things Chen Fan had done during his time at school.
Such as Chen Fan's performance on stage at the school anniversary gala.
During the quarantine period of the epidemic, he mobilized all the students in the quarantine building to help sing to confess to his girlfriend, with a light show.
There was also the carefully prepared confession activity on the playground before graduation.
Even Chen Fan's graduation thesis was dug up, arousing a lot of curiosity and research.
All these evidences posted by the students had videos as proof.
Especially the proposal activity Chen Fan prepared for Su Ruochu before graduation.
A whole playground full of people shouting in unison "Commoner", "Commoner"...
It was then that netizens unexpectedly learned that this Chen Fan was actually the legendary most mysterious singer Commoner on the internet?
So someone immediately compared the video of Chen Fan singing with Commoner's songs.
The result proved that the voices were identical.
Chen Fan is Commoner.
This time, public opinion was stirred up again.
An ordinary car accident immediately topped the national public opinion headlines.
Chen Fan turned out to be the mysterious singer Commoner.
Many people were stunned when they learned this news.
This guy... what kind of person is he exactly?
He became a billionaire during college, with several companies in his hands.
And it turns out he can also write songs and sing, with every song being a hit...
This... is this really something a human can achieve?
Is there anything he can't do?
No one had expected that because of the explosive news that Chen Fan is Commoner,
The online discussions about Chen Fan took another turn.
Because Commoner's fans and die-hard supporters suddenly joined the battlefield.
This was a huge number of netizens.
Fans battling internet trolls, it was earth-shattering, moving mountains and shaking the earth.
...
"He... he's really Commoner?"
In the training room, Tong Yao looked at the post on the computer with a dazed expression.
Beside her, Yan Qing and the others were equally shocked.
"No wonder, no wonder I felt somewhat familiar when I heard him sing that day..."
"If he's really Commoner, then it makes sense how he could write a song so quickly that day."
Yan Qing smiled bitterly.
"This guy seems to always bring us surprises, huh."
Tong Yao pouted irritably.
"What's the use of surprises? Now he's still lying in bed unconscious."
Beside her, Nalan Wan'er flipped through the posts expressionlessly.
She suddenly spoke up at this moment.
"Something's not quite right, it seems someone is deliberately guiding public opinion."
Yan Qing smiled.
"You noticed it too?"
"Of course, anyone who's not an idiot can see that someone is fanning the flames here, seemingly wanting to put Chen Fan in a death trap!"
Yan Qing suddenly looked at everyone and said,
"Let me tell you another piece of news."
"I got someone to get me the video of the accident at the time. I think this matter is not simple."
"What do you mean?"
Yan Qing walked to the side and took out a USB drive from his bag.
"The footage of the accident scene is on this. Let's all take a look together."
Tong Yao immediately took the USB drive and plugged it into the computer, found the surveillance video inside, and clicked play.
The two girls focused intently on the images on the video.
Yan Qing pointed with his hand.
"This girl is Chen Fan's girlfriend Su Ruochu."
"At that time, she should have been waiting by the roadside for Chen Fan to pick her up..."
Suddenly, Tong Yao's eyes widened.
"Look, look at this car... it's accelerating against traffic..."
