After Shen Zha got out of the car, he glanced at Hao Meng, then at the camera behind her, without saying much.
Neither he nor Jiang Ning mentioned the incident in the town proactively.
However, upon returning to the temporary office prepared by the production team for the program recording, staff immediately showed Shen Zha comments made by netizens.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ning received a phone call from the Hetian Town police.
Because the incident continued to ferment online, Hetian Town police also received numerous calls from netizens and media.
Higher-ups asked them to issue an official statement to briefly update the public on the events of the afternoon.
They knew Jiang Ning and the production team were recording in Sanwan Village, so they called ahead to give a heads-up.
"It's okay, go ahead. Sorry for the trouble," Jiang Ning replied.
