Chapter 1982: What’s there to be afraid of? We’ve got traffic anyway!
Isn’t there a saying about being a celebrity?
Black and red are also red!
Lu Fan thought that if the other blogger could be hyped, then they could do the same. Everyone was worried and felt that this was not a good idea.
But if they want to refute it, they actually have no good way to do it.
In the end, of course, whatever Lu Fan said was what mattered, after all, he was the big boss of the investment.
Things quickly continued to deteriorate as everyone felt either uneasy or worried.
Within a few days, the number of refunds and returns in the live broadcast room alone exceeded tens of thousands of boxes, with nearly one million bottles of goods.
Moreover, most of these products have been unpacked and tried by users.
The opened seals also contaminate the unopened goods during the return process, making these goods completely unsaleable.
After this wave of operations, the direct losses of the soy sauce factory have reached hundreds of millions.
Wang Wei’s worries also became a reality.
Although the platform agreed to cooperate, it did not take any substantive action against those bloggers, and even those articles and videos were still hanging on the homepage.
It often tops the hot search list.
What kind of temper does Lu Fan have? He is willful because he has money, and he never tolerates things that he doesn't like.
Seeing that the popularity remained high, he was not polite to the platform. He brought their respective popular bloggers and asked Lu Qiuyu's team to sue directly.
But such a head-on action gave those bloggers who like to stir up trouble an opportunity to speak out.
They began to take the lead in the crusade.
Some bloggers even began to play the victim, telling how difficult it was for them to get to where they are today. However, some large companies that have committed many evil things treat life as a joke, not only selling counterfeit products, but also killing bloggers who expose their evil deeds.
There are so many tricks, it's really eye-opening.
Fans who don’t know the truth also took sides:
"Support bloggers in defending their rights and never let them go."
"What kind of evil force is this? Don't be afraid, blogger. We stand with you."
"Open the reward. I don't have much else, but I have a lot of kindness. I will give as much as I can to help the blogger."
"Blogger, do you want me to help you find a lawyer? I know someone..."
"How strange! Doesn't this company do crisis PR? With such a bad reputation, why are they still trying to take it on?"
"Is there no one left in their company? Why didn't any department take care of such a mess?"
"I find it strange too. I have been using this brand for a short time and it does not cause any toxicity or harmful effects as the blogger said."
"How much money did the person above charge? You are lying with your eyes open!"
Whenever there is a fan who is willing to speak up for the Lu brand, there will definitely be supporters of this blogger gang coming out to attack.
Talking about collecting money and cursing viciously.
Until this person disappears quietly, I will not wait to dig out all his past and grind his bones to dust.
It's really terrifying.
To make matters worse, the soy sauce factory was hit by one crisis after another, and there seemed to be no end in sight.
Not long after, Zhou Lingling found Lu Fan again:
"Brother Four, Mr. Lu, the four companies from Dayong just sent a message saying they want to terminate cooperation with us, saying that retailers are afraid to put our brand on the shelves due to the reputation issues."
Wang Wei was also present at the time and blurted out:
"What? They want to terminate the cooperation? Isn't this a blatant violation of the contract?"
Seeing that Lu Fan didn't say anything, Wang Wei found it unbelievable:
"No, why should they?
Zhou Lingling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Wang Wei didn't hear her calling the wrong name. Now that she heard her question, she hurriedly explained:
"When the contract was signed, there was a clause that if one party's reputation dropped, the other party had the right to terminate the contract."
Wang Wei said angrily, "Isn't this taking advantage of a loophole in the contract? Didn't the Legal Department see the trap in the text?"
Zhou Lingling shook her head:
"These are the normal provisions, and other companies are the same." It was just that such a situation was rarely seen in the past, but it happened at the soy sauce factory.
Lu Fan seemed to be thinking about something, or rather, he had already expected a situation like today to happen.
Wang Wei took a deep breath: "So, what is the other party going to do now? Is it really going to tear up the contract?
She was the one who made all the efforts to promote this cooperation. Even when Mr. Lu had some doubts, Wang Wei still felt that there was nothing wrong with the cooperation.
Unexpectedly, within just a few days, Dayong’s four distributors all ran into problems and forced the emperor to abdicate.
Zhou Lingling sighed. The reality was much more severe than they had expected.
"Not only are they demanding the contract be torn up, they are also not going to send back the goods they were supposed to take away."
"If you want it, just ask us to go get it ourselves."
Wang Wei felt a chill on her forehead, but Lu Fan remained calm and asked:
"Did they say what to do with the money that was seized from the goods that were previously sold?"
Wang Wei took a deep breath and widened her eyes:
"No way, if they don't return the goods, are they planning to keep the money?"
Zhou Lingling was also very angry: "Yes, they insisted that there was something wrong with our goods and that they were implicated, so they refused to settle the bill."
