People from everywhere came here by word of mouth. Some were fans of the hosts who had their programs banned, while some of those that came to help were people who could not stand what had happened. Finally, there were also quite a number of trolls that came to join in the fun. Commoners tend to pity the weak, so with Zhang Ye banned, they ignored everything. Some didn’t even know of the background ongoings or what had really happened, but just with Zhang Ye’s shocking works with “The Answer”, “The Last Speech”, and “Sunflower in the Sun”, they all rushed here to help without thinking!
Zhang Ye was right!
With one Zhang Ye sacrificed!
Thousands and thousands of Zhang Ye will stand up!
The Shanghai SARFT seldom had a lot traffic flow, and their servers had always been quite old. Their website staff only had average skills, and were not professional web administrators. The server could only sustain a limited load, hence in half an hour, the entire Shanghai SARFT official website was paralyzed. Many of those who knew of the ongoings behind the scenes were not aiming for the SARFT, but at Li Tao and his inspection team! A large portion of flooding messages on the website were cursing at Li Tao! Every injustice had its perpetrator, every debt had its debtor! This mass halt of programs was too controversial. Those pirated programs that plagiarized and should be halted were not halted, but those which should not be halted, such as a childrens’ program and the original Talk Show program were halted! This was also because Li Tao had been too underhanded in his execution. He used the governmental policies of being able to suppress movie and television programs for his own interests! This caused the current controversy! Actually, if he had been a bit more restrained, by stopping a few programs that were obviously in violation of the regulations or plagiarized programs, it would not have led to such a situation!
Despite the Shanghai SARFT being on the verge of collapse due to the criticism directed at Li Tao, the SARFT did not put out an official word. They made no action!
Many netizens had already guessed and had expected this. The higher management might not care about this matter, or they pretended not to see it. However, even if they were guesses, the people still could not accept it, so the curses grew in intensity! The emotions of the people also became angrier!
The website was finally hacked!
Many people began to curse Li Tao on Weibo!
Numerous people emerged to @Li Tao on Weibo. His name began trending almost instantly!
……
Morning.
Shanghai SARFT. In an office.
Li Tao was sitting in the room, smoking. A young civil servant rushed in to report to him!
“Chief Li! Our official website has crashed from the traffic!” The youth wiped his sweat, “It has already hung! There’s no way for it to run normally!”
Li Tao said angrily, “What?”
The youth said, “It seems it’s all due to Zhang Ye’s fans and those trolls!’ With a pause, he said carefully, “And, last night, Zhang Ye seemed…seemed to have composed another poem.”
Another poem?
Li Tao quickly opened a webpage, and after seeing “Sunflower in the Sun”, he slammed his table angrily. With a loud thud, “That damn hooligan!” Yesterday, Zhang Ye had said to his face, that his future job was to scold them, and it was a scolding a day. Back then, Li Tao believed Zhang Ye was just speaking on the spur of the moment and was nothing much. He never expected that in less than a f**king day, which was yesterday or the day itself, Zhang Ye had already come up with a new poem to curse them? F**k! Why did we offend such a hooligan!?
A hooligan!
A piece of sh*t!
A piece of stinking gum!
This was their impression of Zhang Ye in their hearts!
Li Tao nearly died from infuriation. Against such a fellow, he really could not hide. Li Tao had seen many hooligans in his life, and he had taken care of several of them. Didn’t they become obedient under his department’s power? However, for an outrageous and shameless person like Zhang Ye, this was the first time he and his Shanghai SARFT had ever seen this type of situation! They were experienced in dealing with disobedient people. However, against Zhang Ye, who was fearless against anything, and was like a shameless stone in a rural toilet—smelly and impervious, they had no experience at all!
