On August 31, some netizens broke the news that Song Zuer had evaded taxes as much as 45 million, and this incident became hot news in a short time. When looking through the re-tweet introduction, everyone will find that all this was initiated by Song Zuer's former employee. However, the fermentation and continuation of this matter is not over, because an account called "Song Zuer Bar Guanbo" asked the attitude of netizens and issued some statements.
This account seems to represent a fan of Song Zuer, because its name indicates that it belongs to a fan group focused on collecting Song Zuer's information.
In a statement issued by this account, it was mentioned: "Please rest assured, this is just rumor-mongering, Zuer abides by the law, and follow-up measures are being discussed." "People with knowledge of the matter will feel that this statement seems to simply deny the accuser's allegations, and also reveals some overdraft-first circumstances."
To the surprise of many, neither Song Zuer herself nor her studio came forward to respond, but a Tieba promotion account responded on their behalf. This response has also raised questions from many.
After all, fans are just a genre that has emerged around music and show hobbies, and they don't have any representation that can serve as a direct channel to deal with the problem. Moreover, this account mentions that "follow-up measures are under discussion", which obviously has no logical meaning, similar to a perfunctory public opinion, may I ask when will the follow-up measures wait for us as viewers to get more information?
Because Song Zuer was unable to respond and deal with this matter head-on, her professional image and fan image were facing decline. At this point, her studio avoids or even dismisses comments on events, which can be a two-way street.
On the other hand, if there is indeed tax evasion, the studio does not want to directly dabble and take risks, on the other hand, if this is not the case, public statements can be seen as a betrayal of the team members and a serious demeaning attitude towards the artist's own image.
Whether or not there is tax evasion, this strange and misbehaved image is not conducive to Soong's future, especially as a public figure. Solving problems requires a clearer and more transparent approach to dealing with PR and fans. Therefore, it is wisest to wait for the official announcement.
