"Reading Machine Girl" incident continues to attract social attention. Recently, Zhang Zhaoyi, who plays Ice Lemon in "Happy Planet", said on social platforms that she and "Reading Machine Girl" Gao Junyu once belonged to the company "Suddenly Enlightenment" MCN, pointing out that the company has long had financial and creative oppression on bloggers, and frankly admitted that "Based on my understanding of this company, it is inevitable that this kind of thing will happen."
Zhang Zhaoyi said that he and the company "Shuushuankang" are in a lawsuit, which has lasted for eight months. She accused that after the contract expired and it was made clear that it would not be renewed, the company required her to return her personal account and blocked her bank card, which greatly affected her personal life. Zhang Zhaoyi believed that her Douyin account had been registered with her real name before joining the company, and she had a large number of fans. She was indignant at the company's unreasonable demands. During the contract period, the company also required Zhang Zhaoyi’s husband Bao Ge to participate in the recording of the video, but the promise to Bao Ge was never fulfilled.
Zhang Zhaoyi also said that the company "has been asking me to talk about "Happy Planet" without any end, and she wants to innovate and make series, but the company will only flatter her and tell her "it won't make money." The company believed that the most important thing was monetization and kept asking her to do content she didn’t want to do. She described the company as "incompetent, without morals and without three views" and called for strengthening the supervision and rectification of such mcn companies.
Zhang Zhaoyi emphasized that she did not know anything about the Gao Junyu incident, but she believed that such incidents are not uncommon in operating models similar to mcn companies, and exposed the long-term problems of such companies.
looks back at the "Reading Machine Girl" incident. From February to March this year, Gao Junyu posted a video on social platforms, revealing that he suffered from a rare brain tumor and underwent surgery. She has updated many times since then, releasing news such as "the brain tumor is benign and is recovering" and "the condition has worsened and she will be transferred to the ICU", which has touched the hearts of netizens. On March 12, the Internet Illegal and Bad Information Reporting Center of Yuhang District, Hangzhou City issued a notice revealing that the series of videos were "stock videos" and were not shot recently. Gao Junyu and his affiliated mcn organization have successively issued apology statements.
