Today, the term "Wu Xin goes to work" is on the hot search, describing that he has no heart to go to work at all, and just wants to wait to see what the final result of Wu Yifan's matter is. Some netizens said, "This is a portrayal of my day." Others said, "I also eat melons, and I am dying." "Zheng Fan is also coming." There are also "Wu Fa Wu Tian" and so on are netizens eating melon Wu Yifan scandal incident. The 24-hour ultimatum stimulates people's nerves to explore the truth, "Mr. Wu, this time, it is a decisive battle." The end of Du Meizhu's sentence completely ignited public opinion.

After Du Meizhu's voice, more and more women have also told wu Yifan's temptations and ambiguities about themselves through Weibo, including "A Sweet Elaine", Zhang Dansan, Wei Yuxin, "You are not Xiao Zhang", Yu Jiayi, etc., of which Zhang Dansan and Yu Jiayi are former SNH48 members. Subsequently, Wu Yifan Studio released ten clarifications. In the field of public opinion, because of the involvement of underage women, the discussion of this incident has long gone beyond the scope of entertainment, and the issue of legal system and equal rights has also become a hot topic of people's attention.

Affected by negative public opinion, many brands such as Han Shu, Yunting App, Libai, Ziyuan, Debao, Vantage, Master Kong Iced Tea, Tencent Video, Porsche, Bulgari and many other brands collectively issued a termination statement to "draw a clear line" with Wu Yifan. With the noon of July 20, L'Oréal Men announced that it has terminated its cooperation with Wu Yifan, and at present, except for LV (Louis Vuitton), Wu Yifan has no endorsement or cooperation brand. And as brands have terminated their contracts, #Wu Yifan may face huge losses#, which is also on the hot search.

But Wu Yifan suffered the most losses in this incident, in addition to moral doubts, but also from the legal level. In the rice circle culture, celebrities hold the absolute right to speak, which may have economic deprivation, potential and difficult to detect "sexual deprivation", but also through this matter, netizens are afraid to think about it. However, it should be noted that under the clamor of the crowd, the more calm and rational it is needed, and public sentiment cannot "envelop the judiciary".

With the voice of multiple media outlets, the incident has changed from entertainment news to social news, even rule of law news." The legal issues encountered need to be resolved in a legal way. If true, Wu Yifan should go to jail under Chinese law; conversely, if not, people who broke the news online are suspected of false accusations and defamation.

Whether it is legal sanctions or self-discipline punishment, it is necessary to rely on facts, and cannot be "exposed" by the Internet alone. Entertainers who violate the law will be severely punished by law; on the basis of not touching the bottom line of the law, if they violate public order and good customs and cause a bad impact, the industry's self-discipline and punishment will never be soft.
