Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 605 Global Capital Resistance?
Sony's suggestion was practical and received widespread approval from the senior executives present.

At this moment, David placed his hands on the table, looking somewhat gloomy, and said, "The film's content must be kept secret to keep the audience interested. At the same time, this can also be a subtle blow to Zhou Yang; I heard they're also making an animated film?"

Sony nodded in agreement, as he knew that Chinese animated films were relatively uncompetitive.

The top executives of both companies agreed to the proposal, which was indeed a good solution that took all parties into consideration.

David and Sony began to regain their confidence, after all, Disney had many years of experience in animation production.

Not to mention the loyal fans, even people who have never seen Disney animation often have a preconceived notion about it.

This was also their chance to turn their lives around.

Even if Zhou Yang were here, he would have to admit that their idea was quite reasonable.

People's perception of Disney, a long-established film company, cannot be changed overnight.

At the same time, netizens also strongly criticized Du Zitao, and even left messages of protest under his program's Weibo account.

"Please bring Du Zitao out and accept your punishment! Shouldn't your production team deal with a host who breaks his promise like this?"

"Since he's so shameless, I hope he gets to taste shit! I'd be very grateful!"

"Doesn't your production team bear any responsibility for using this kind of host?"

"Seriously! I will never watch your show again with a host who doesn't keep his word like this!"

"Boycott this program!"

"..."

The production team received feedback that went beyond criticism; many viewers were choosing not to watch their show anymore, which made them uneasy.

Teacher He called Du Zitao, his usually gentle tone now sounding angry, "It doesn't matter if you get into trouble, but don't drag the whole show down with you!"

Du Zitao could only obediently respond on the other end of the phone. He had no other choice in the current situation, otherwise his foothold in the industry would be in jeopardy.

“Okay! Teacher He, please don’t worry! I will definitely handle it well!” he assured him.

After hanging up the phone, Du Zitao apologized to Zhou Yang on social media in a very low-key manner, a stark contrast to his flamboyant behavior a few days earlier.

"#Du Zitao: I sincerely apologize to Senior Zhou Yang for my words and actions a few days ago! I was unreasonable and spoke recklessly! I should slap myself! Please be lenient and give me a way out!#"

Although he apologized to Zhou Yang, he also labeled himself as a victim.

It's like saying, "If you don't forgive me, you don't understand tolerance." I've already humbled myself so much, and you still won't give me a way out? That's just too much.

However, netizens aren't fools, and bystanders won't easily sympathize. There's a backstory to this matter.

You were so proud just a few days ago, how much sympathy can you expect from what you're saying now?
"What a joke! How dare you say such things? I am the most magnanimous person! You have to bear the consequences of your own actions!"

"666! You were so arrogant when you were cursing me, now you want others to let you off the hook?"

"You brought this all on yourself. Do you think there are still people like you in China these days?"

"I really feel ashamed of you! You should have just knelt down back then so that people wouldn't think you've ruined the reputation of Chinese men!"

"If I were Zhou Yang, I'd feel like I was getting a bad deal even if I slapped you twice!"

"..."

Du Zitao felt helpless. Zhou Yang did not respond, so he had no choice but to start a live broadcast and put on a despicable performance—eating chocolate-made "poop".

Zhou Yang couldn't help but laugh at the scene. Fatty Di, who had just finished her work and returned home, also looked curiously at what Zhou Yang was paying attention to.

At a glance, Fatty Di burst out laughing. "He still dares to be so arrogant? That's amazing!" Zhou Yang put his arm around Fatty Di, and the two watched Du Zitao's "eating shit" show with great interest.

What's even more striking is the barrage of sarcastic and mocking comments. Zhou Yang doesn't feel any pity; on the contrary, he thinks these fans' comments are spot on!
"Is this really what your poop looks like? Does it smell good?"

"Wow, that's amazing! I never expected you to keep your promise like this!"

"How dare you make promises like this to others? Dude, do you treat women like this too? What a scumbag!"

"You're enjoying your chocolate so much, but will it taste like poop next time you eat it?"

"Holy crap! You're a tough one! Like a lapdog, you just can't shake your shit-eating habit!"

"Cyberbullying is terrifying; I'm really afraid he won't be able to handle it!"

"You think you're weak? You need other people's sympathy? You seem to be eating quite well, and you're very strong!"

"..."

After the live stream ended, Du Zitao was disheartened when he saw the data. He didn't get a single like, and there were zero gifts, but the number of comments exceeded one million.

He understood: he could mess with anyone, but he absolutely could not mess with Zhou Yang!

This matter has come to a temporary close, after all, netizens' memories are always short-lived.

Their attention was drawn to the latest developments from Disney and Sony, and many were excited to see their announcements.

"#DisneyOfficialAccount: A new animated film is in production, this time in collaboration with Sony Pictures! The investment of funds and effort will definitely not disappoint!#"

Sony also retweeted this Weibo post.

#SonyMovies: With the powerful Disney behind us, we are confident we can make a great film! (Retweet)
The excitement of fans is palpable as they learn that Disney is about to release another new animated film.

After all, Disney is always associated with animation and fairy tales.

"I can't wait! I absolutely love Disney animated movies; they're so vivid and unforgettable!"

"Am I the only one who noticed that even the names haven't been announced this time? I'm quite curious!"

"What storyline? I'm waiting!"

"Animated movies are so much fun, I really enjoy them!"

"The collaboration between Disney and Sony is sure to be exciting!"

"Am I the only one who remembers Disney going to return Spider-Man to Marvel?"

"..."

Zhou Yang also quickly saw the related discussions on Weibo. An animated film? Since there was no specific content, it seems they wanted to whet the audience's appetite and not continue the debate in order to make up for the losses?
I'm not going to do things your way!
Zhou Yang narrowed his eyes slightly and dialed a familiar phone number.

The person who answered the phone was Jiaozi, the director in charge of the animated film.

"Hey, Dumpling, this is Zhou Yang! I'd like to work on a new animated film. Do you have time?"

After all, he was a long-time employee of the company, and the two worked together seamlessly, which made Zhou Yang feel very at ease.

Dumplings had nothing to do lately, and when he heard Zhou Yang mention the new movie, he was very excited!
"Of course! What the boss says is definitely true!"

"Okay, we'll discuss it in detail when you come to the company!"

Zhou Yang thought about China's animation market and believed it was time to make some changes.
