Chapter 413: – How to Save a Life |
[Where's Meryl Kodomo?]
> It's been three months now. Any news?
> She definitely offed herself.
> STFU
> Idk man, medical emergency and no news since...?
> She's definitely still alive! She promised!
> Wait, Variant Hue just put out a statement!
> Really?
> Link it
> THEY TERMINATED HER?!?!
> FOR WHAT?!
> Going against management policy... What freaking policy?!
> SHE HAD THE RIGHTS!
> Didn't management ghost her for a month anyways too?!?!!
> Okay, this is definitely illegal
> Isn't Meryl based out of the U.S.? They can't just term her like this, right?
> That's 100% defamation. You can't use 'mental instability' as a reason!
> Meryl should sue them!
> Sink the yacht!
> That smug CEO should go die in a fire!
> Where's John?
> Yeah! John should wreck them!
> Come on, John!
> Who the hell is John?
> Have you been under a rock or something?
> Bruh. VTubers started because of John and Project MirAIs. Tf you on?
[JOHN DO SOMETHING!]
> I'm begging you!
> I don't care who's reading this, someone tell him!
> If there's anyone who needs saving, it's Meryl!
> It's free publicity!
> Come on! Please!
> Just make sure Meryl's safe!
> I don't care if I can see her again, I just want to know my oshi's okay!
> Please!
> If there's any sort of god in this world, please help her!
[Plans to sabotage Variant Hue]
> Okay. Who wants to run some cyber warfare with me?
> This thread is totally getting locked, but I'm in.
> I've scoured their hiring pages. It looks like they're hiring minors?
> Looks bad, but I think technically legal. Idols are an exception.
> Are the Divers even considered idols?
> ...Are they?
> The girls in Project MirAIs are employees, but the Divers are just contractors, right?
> Can confirm. Sauce: bid.lee/1422Lke%
> Dammit.
> Wait, this can look bad on them too, right?
> Anyone got a copy of Project MirAI's contract?
> Good f*cking luck on that.
> I know a guy who tried and ALL his devices were fried. For a month.
> I think we can take Project MirAI at face value here. The girls are definitely happy enough.
> Have you SEEN John and his family? That guy's doing this literally out of good will. He's burning money.
> Yeah, unlike that bastard CEO in Variant Hue.
> So like, is there a reason we don't say his name?
> Why give power to someone we hate by naming him?
> TRUEEEE
> Back on track, guys!
> Wait. Do you think John's already working on this?
> I mean, if anyone can, it's John.
> Did y'all see the DDOS on Googol and Nitrosoft the other day?
> LUL
> omegalul
> Yeah. Those idiots tried stealing Titor's AI assets. Pft.
> Bro, I tried that on a sandboxed machine and STILL got reverse hacked.
> Idk what black tech Titor has, but I'm not touching that s#!t with a ten foot pole.
> ...Wait. Doesn't Variant Hue use MIRAIZ tech?
> ...
> ...OH YEAH
> THAT'S FVCKING RIGHT!
> GGGGGGGGGGGG
> Confirmed backdoor in their systems already XD
> That's... totally illegal, isn't it?
> Who cares?
> Public opinion's on John's side here.
> Even if it is, John can throw some money and make the problem go away.
> Pft, I'm pretty sure Titor's got a mega scanner that could hack in even without compromising the systems.
> Have you seen some of the people on Myth Inc.'s payroll?
> Yeah. Like, their security team is legit.
> Just got back from the Kofi concert, can confirm.
> There was a guy there who was LITERALLY a hitman. Like, you could tell. The vibes...
> We're getting off topic guys, come on.
> Yeah, we can't leave everything to John.
> The goal here isn't just revenge, it's to stop this from happening again.
> I worry about the other Divers though...
> You can't get rid of a tumor without cutting through the flesh.
> There's a lot of collateral damage though...
> Did you READ the term notice?
> Variant Hue said they term'd Meryl because she alleged bullying.
> You guys are all crazy.
> Meryl's just an attention whore anyway.
> YOU TAKE THAT BACK
> Okay, dumbass. Tracing your location now.
> Pft, you idiots talk tough about sinking a company, but you can't do s#!t
> The guy who called Meryl an attention whore. This you? linkedout.com/14saf#12
> ADMIN: This thread has been locked.
[The reason for Meryl's Termination]
> Does anyone really know what happened?
> Isn't it obvious? There are snakes in the water.
> So did Meryl just do it for a stunt, or what?
> Meryl's not like that!
> GTFO idiot
> Bruh, she was termed for publishing a fan video paid by her own money.
> I still think it's bullshit.
> Yeah!
> Project MirAIs lets its talents do whatever the hell they want. WTF is up with Variant Hue?
> I think Project MirAIs is the exception though?
> TF you mean? They're the rule!
> Isn't it obvious to prioritize your talents in letting them do what they want?
> Hey, Project MirAIs didn't do that all the time.
> Remember Rhea?
> Miss 'I'm not an idol, I'm an entertainer?'
> Lowkey surprised she didn't graduate...
> John is waaaay too lenient.
> But that's the point, isn't it? He's giving girls a chance.
> Variant Hue is flat out lying to everyone.
> Haven't the Divers talked about how little of a cut they get?
> Anyone seen Variant Hue's quarterly reports?
> How tf are they turning a profit with that many talents?
> Yeah. And if you look at Myth Inc, they're barely breaking even.
> I think breakeven is right, all things considered...
> Wait. I thought Myth Inc was a privately held corp?
> ...?
> ...Who tf sourced these reports?
> Do... do we have an in at Myth Inc?
> John? That you?
> Quick, any finance guy around to confirm this?
> Can't prove it, but I work at the government offices. I can confirm this is the sort of stuff we send out to private corps when they do reporting.
> Holy fxck.
> Wait, so if Myth Inc. is barely breaking even, how TF is Variant Hue profiting?
> I think that someone hates Meryl for rocking the boat.
> Yeah. She's super creative and wants to do a lot of projects, doesn't she?
> Meryl said management shut her down a lot too.
> There are rules and regulations you have to follow. Since she didn't follow them, she got fired. Simple.
> Counterpoint: John and Myth Inc.
> Buddy, we ain't buying sh*t about rules and regulations when John is a thing.
> You don't know that! John could be exploiting the girls too!
> ...Have you WATCHED a Project MirAIs stream?
> Bruh. Last week, Rhea just confirmed they get the average Japanese salary plus 100% merch and memberships along with 90% superchats.
> Yeah. And John's last AMA explained that the company turns a profit by people using the MIRAIZ app, not from the talents.
> No response in five minutes?
> OH YOU HATERS QUIET NOW, HUH?
> LMAO. These idiots can't be bothered to do a bit of research.
> John is literally a trillionaire in USD. He could tank Japan's economy by himself if he wanted.
> Did anyone confirm that?
> I mean, Jade Emperor Holdings is a thing. And they're bigger than Dime.
> We know people hate Meryl. There are probably backstabbers too, judging from the bullying allegations.
> That VARIANT HUE made, remember. Meryl hasn't said anything.
> Right. But there was also that 'medical emergency'...
> Is she still hospitalized?
> Wait. That can't be legal, right?
> Yeah, you can't fire someone while they're in the hospital, can you?
> Definitely illegal in the U.S.
> Meryl is an American, isn't she?
> Yeah, but she's living in Japan right now.
> Holy crap. Is that why?
[RRAT about the truth of Meryl Kodomo's termination]
> Summary:
Meryl and management have issues because Meryl keeps pushing the envelope.
Despite everything, she's the most liked Diver.
Management shuts down her project to give back to her fans, so she pays everyone out of her own pocket.
Management privates the video.
Fans repost it because she published it in membership too.
Meryl suddenly goes quiet.
Other Divers start talking $h!t about her not following the rules.
Radio silence, then a message from Meryl about her being hospitalized for a 'medical emergency.'
More radio silence.
People mad. Start rallying and asking for John to swing by and help.
Comparisons start about how Project MirAIs is a proper company and Variant Hue is a black corp.
Meryl suddenly terminated for 'mental instability,' 'rule breaking,' and 'false harassment allegations.'
Meryl still has not said anything.
Meryl's past life account also hasn't said anything.
Theory: Meryl committed Meincraft because of workplace harassment and Variant Hue is shutting everyone up.
Proof: All the Divers are uncomfortable talking about Meryl. XXX has joked about 'what if I killed someone, like just what if' and would her audience still like her. YYY has said that some people should know better than to rock the boat since they'll get what they deserve.
> Praying this is wrong.
> Please god no.
> If this is true, I'm burning Variant Hue to the ground.
> Good thing the ol' Anarchist recipe book is still in the threads here.
> We should toss that Yachtface in with the sharks.
> If true, Yachtface has balls considering what just happened with the yakuza.
> Can we talk about that?
> What about the yakuza?
> Oh yeah. You overseas guys wouldn't know.
> Japan was hella corrupt until recently because of this superhuman yakuza bossman.
> I call BS
> Nah bro, they got security footage of his execution. it's on realleaks. Here: bid.lee/85723!ff
> HOLY FCK
> The cops got that guy?!
> I still think it was John.
> Anyway, Japan is MEGA tuned into criminals right now.
> If you have Varu stocks, I'd sell them.
> Wait. LOL
> DED
> Look at the stock prices!
> Someone's buying up all of Variant Hue stocks!
> NO FVCKING WAY
> JOHN?!?!
> Variant Hue is suddenly the most valued company on Earth?!?!?
> Who tf is still buying?
> It's impossible to get majority like this though, isn't it?
> But if John becomes a major shareholder, he can veto, right?
> LMAO. Yacht guy meets space armada guy.
> John literally being screw the rules, I have money
> Wait! Meryl just posted on her alt!
> Really?
> Here! https://tweeter.com/eeriechild
> "This is a statement from the legal representative of the talent behind Meryl Kodomo. We are disputing all of Variant Hue's allegations and have filed a complaint. The talent is in critical condition, but stable. More to come."
> HOLY FUUUUU-
> NO WAY
> OH THIS IS FOR REAL FOR REAL
> Who's the rep?
> It doesn't say on Tweeter, but I found it!
> Hiroyuki and Co.? Written as Good Fortune?
> Any money that it's John?
> It's not. Apparently this guy's just graduated not long ago... but he has a 100% win rate on prosecution?
> Wait, how?
> Oh Variant Hue is SCREWED.
> GG no re
