Chapter 895: Chapter 495: Great Joy, Mist City Arts and Science University’s True Mettle! (Seeking Subscriptions)

"Principal Ding, I’m not sure if you’ve checked Twitter, but those famous influencers who slandered and spread rumors about Mist City Arts and Science University yesterday, have just posted their apologies this morning not long ago."

Over the phone, Director Liu Hongxia said.

"Apologized?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue was taken aback for a moment.

Then Ding Yue opened Twitter on his computer and saw that, indeed, several well-known figures in the education sector had issued apologies.

Take for example, the "Doctor Jiuhang," who led the charge with the most fervor yesterday.

[Doctor Jiuhang]v: I had no intention of monopolizing public resources. In light of yesterday’s events, I hereby offer my sincere apologies to Mist City Arts and Science University@Mist City Arts and Science University. I deeply regret any impact my comments may have had on your institution and hope that your university will continue to improve, align with international standards, and become a private college of strength, confidence, and breadth of spirit.

Retweets (13k), Comments (27k), Likes (51k)

Ding Yue looked at Doctor Jiuhang’s apology tweet and couldn’t see any sincerity in it. It seemed like an apology for the sake of apologizing.

Quite obviously.

Ding Yue knew that Doctor Jiuhang must have been prompted to "soften his stance" by the arrest of Mist City’s "Free Air" blogger by police yesterday evening and the lawsuit filed against him by Mist City Arts and Science University. He knew that the university was serious now.

The other influencers who had apologized were probably in the same boat as Doctor Jiuhang.

Nice try!

Did they actually think they could do bad things and get off so lightly?

Not so simple!

"Director Liu, I got it. Regarding this collective apology by the Twitter influencers, let’s not respond for now. We’ll wait and see how things unfold," Principal Ding said.

Ding Yue thought that the best course of action for Mist City Arts and Science University right now was to not respond immediately.

Once these influencers’ apologies start trending and gain more attention, then Mist City Arts and Science University could state its position. By doing so, the university could not only gain more Popularity Value,

but also reveal the shameless behavior of these Twitter influencers to the public, as well as Mist City Arts and Science University’s stance.

Mist City Arts and Science University’s position was firm.

If I’ve decided to sue you, then sorry, I definitely won’t give up easily.

Apologized?

If an apology were useful, what would be the need for laws?

These Twitter influencers, if investigated one by one, would definitely be convicted of online defamation.

And their views, retweets, likes, and comments from yesterday were all over a million, even tens of millions, which is a rather serious matter.

Now that they know Mist City Arts and Science University is serious, they’re scared and apologizing.

It’s not that easy.

The faculty and students from the law school of Mist City Arts and Science University are fired up and ready to use this opportunity to set a precedent by suing these Twitter influencers!

About an hour later.

Not long after influencers like Doctor Jiuhang issued their collective apologies, the matter quickly attracted the attention of the public.

Especially since.

The arrest of a well-known blogger from the Mist City region was already a cause for public satisfaction.

Now, seeing that these prominent influencers have started apologizing to Mist City Arts and Science University after the region’s blogger was arrested, it could be seen as a submission to the university’s iron-fisted approach.

The netizens were all applauding.

"Now they know to apologize?"

"These influencers just profit from creating drama, I hope they get what’s coming to them."

"Think an apology is enough to settle it? I hope Mist City Arts and Science University doesn’t let them off easily!"

"They’re scared, these cowards are scared now."

"Yesterday when they were all high and mighty slandering and defaming, weren’t they so arrogant?"

"They stirred up a big mess, now they can’t end it nicely."

"Mist City Arts and Science University, go for it, crush these trashy bloggers."

"Even though we know there’s American capital behind this, we’re limited in what we can do; hopefully, Mist City Arts and Science University won’t give up the right to pursue legal action just because of their apologies—deal with these influencers one by one first."

"I feel like Mist City Arts and Science University probably won’t pursue it. After all, they’ve apologized, and historically, there hasn’t been a case where a bunch of influencer bloggers get sued and arrested."

"They’ve already apologized, let it end at that."

"They have apologized, what more do you want? Really sue them?"

"Suing also requires time and money costs, Mist City Arts and Science University should back down now."

"Wow, looking at a few comments above, why do I feel like they are promotional comments!"

"Whether Mist City Arts and Science University backs down or not, it’s not up to you promotional commentators, go for it! Definitely crush these influencers!"

Under Doctor Jiuhang’s apology tweet, there emerged a few comments with the core message being "They have apologized, let’s end it here."

Without a doubt, these comments were sponsored by Chen Jiuhang, aiming to sway the public opinion in another direction.

That’s right.

Chen Jiuhang intended to buy commenters to set the narrative, hoping that Mist City Arts and Science University would see "public opinion" and no longer pursue the defamation claims against them.

After all, having arrested "Free Air," making an example of one to warn the others had already been effective.
