One month after Yuming Long's death, the
storm is only growing fiercer. Mango
Excellent Media's market value plunged
by 4.8 billion renb in a day. A vice
president suddenly resigned and China's
national social security fund appeared
on the shareholder list. Tens of
thousands of fans took to the streets
demanding the truth and 260,000 people
worldwide have signed a petition. This
is not an accident, but a stress test of
Red Capital collapsing. Who is covering
up? Who is panicking? Don't miss the
next drop. Subscribe and enable the
bell. Things are getting more and more
unusual. A month has passed.
Yumongs death has not faded from
memory. Instead, it's become a bomb that
has exploded from the entertainment
industry straight into the capital
markets. The stock market tanked. Public
opinion erupted. Fans are furious. This
event labeled as an accidental fall is
turning into a chain explosion of
capital and power. Look behind him sits
parent company Mango Excellent Media.
One day wiped out more than four billion
renmanb. Some media estimate that from
October 9th to October 10th shares fell
over 11% across two days erasing about
7.67 billion renmanb in market cap. A
vice president quit overnight. Angry
netisonens asked is the people's pension
fund being used to bankroll this kind of
company. More than 10,000 fans poured
into the streets shouting for truth and
shut down Chanu. Even watching you
choked up on stage. I still haven't
figured it out. This isn't a routine
tragedy. It's a tectonic jolt to the
system. One person fell and the
fissurers in Red Capital widened. So,
who's covering up? Who's nervous? And
who is afraid of the truth being seen?
Today, we start from the stock plunge to
examine the power game behind it.
Domino's falling. Mango Excellent Media
plunges a VP Bolts. Yumings agency,
E Media, Tanu Media, is owned by Mango
Excellent Media. On October 9th, Mango
shares suddenly dropped 6.68%
evaporating tens of billions of R&B in a
single day. Capital flow shows both main
funds and hot money fleeing and mass
with a net outflow over 150 million
renb. Only uninformed retail investors
were still catching the falling knife.
More coincidentally, the very next day,
October 10th, Mango's board announced
that company vice president Lu Zuan
tendered a written resignation citing
job transfer and would hold no further
posts after leaving. Who is Lu Zajuan?
His resume shows he entered the Hunan
Broadcasting System in 1995. A longtime
insider who rose from director of the
security department to Mango TV VP, then
to VP of the listed company. Many
netisonens immediately tied the stock
plunge and VP's exit to use DAFF,
insisting this is no coincidence.
Comments included, on September 11th,
you tore open a hole. Now the loop is
closing. Netisonens are brilliant.
Nationwide boycott. Investors sell
quickly. Worse is coming. The people's
power shouldn't be underestimated. Go
Ming Long. Investors be cautious. The
masses see clearly. Enough said. Let's
sketch the ownership chain to see how
deep the water runs. Use agency is E
Media. E Media is under Mango Excellent
Media. Mango Excellent Media is the core
listed platform of Hunan Broadcasting
System. Hunan Broadcasting, as many
know, is an important provincial level
propaganda mouthpiece. Behind these
nested shareholdings lies not just
entertainment capital, but also a deep
official background and the shadow of
red elites. More ironically, netisonens
digging through filings found the
National Social Security Fund on Mango's
major shareholders list. A check of East
Money's data center shows that since
June 30th, 2025, the National Social
Security Fund 112 portfolio ranked fifth
among Mango's top 10 shareholders,
holding 16.89 million shares, a 1.65%
stake. Another post on Soho Securities
dated October 10th notes that the
NSSF414 portfolio held Mango shares over
the past two years, 5.7999
million shares, a 0.31% stake. In other
words, the retirement savings of
countless ordinary Chinese citizens were
invested in a company now mired in
allegations of exploiting artists and
manipulating public opinion. Netisonens
exploded. They're using our money to
take down the people we love. What could
be more ironic? What do you think? A
beloved artist dies under suspicious
circumstances. His company offers no
convincing explanation. Then the stock
craters and a top executive resigns.
Coincidence or inevitability?

Fley once said he had handled over a 100
corpses, stunning the room. Online
rumors allege he was set up to attend a
17 person dinner, and every name on that
list is now under a magnifying glass.
among them 71-year-old producer and
screenwriter Fongley. Nisonens recently
dug up an old interview clip. While
promoting the film The Fallen Bridge, he
said, "The ugliness and crimes of the
world, even the bodies of the deceased,
I've seen too many to count. The corpses
I've handled number in the hundreds,
stressing that the film's content is far
less brutal than reality." The remarks
set the internet ablaze. People asked,
"What kind of producer/screenwriter
handles hundreds of bodies? Unless he's
a coroner, a hitman, or in the funeral
business, how is that normal? Some
countered that at his age, having lived
through the cultural revolution and
famine, it's possible he saw many
dead. But at such a sensitive moment,
his words were like pouring gasoline on
a fire. Fun later clarified on Weibo
that he didn't know you and posted his
schedule showing he was in Chongqing
that day. But netzens dug up a photo of
him kissing director Chimqing, also
named on the dinner list, suggesting
close ties and fueling suspicions of
involvement. Even more coincidental,
users claimed his IP location showed
Beijing on the 10th, the dinner, then
suddenly switched to Chongqing on the
11th when you died. The timing, they
say, is just too neat. Rage that won't
be smothered. After you's death, Beijing
police quickly concluded no criminal
suspicion. But that statement did
nothing to quell public doubts.
Heavy-handed post deletions and account
bans only convinced people that a cover
up looms. Yet, the more authorities
suppress, the stronger the push back.
The global petition, Justice for Yumang
Long, has surpassed 260,000 signatures.
Another overseas Chinese action, the
Hollywood Walk of Fame AVAZ signature
campaign was set for October 12th at 3
p.m. The bilingual description reads,
"When truth is buried, silence becomes
complicity. When the brave are muzzled,
each person who steps forward is a star
that lights the night. To speak for you,
Mang Long is to speak for ourselves."
Inside mainland China, what appeared to
be large numbers of brave female fans
took to the streets, chanting, "Shut
down e media." to protest the company's
cold-blooded response. Some claimed
there were over 10,000 protesters.
Unrelated videos, scrolling comments
read, "Our sisters are amazing. Keep
going. I moved to tears. Brave girls."
While we can't verify the exact time of
the footage, it's worth noting that last
year fans of singer Haingu shouted the
same slogan after he was allegedly
suppressed by E Media. Clearly, public
eyeire at this company is long-standing.
A concert for a brother while a dragon
spirit appears in the sky. Haingu held
his Mars concerts in Nanjing on October
5th to 6th. It should have been pure
celebration, but everyone knew he was
weighed down by the loss of his brother
Long. On stage, Hua confided to the
audience that he still hasn't figured it
out. He said, "Life is half clarity,
half confusion. He keeps using logic to
accept reality, but wonders whether that
acceptance is real or just a coping
mechanism as things grow more serious."
His words were oblique, but everyone
understood as unresolved, not mental.
On October 5th, drones released colored
smoke into the sunset sky, and the smoke
slowly took the shape of a dragon. The
sun's position just happened to align as
the dragon's eye, an uncanny image. Why
a dragon? Privately, Hua affectionately
called you longer, little dragon, and
fans followed suit. The dragon in the
sky brought many to tears. Longer came
to see his brother. You attended the
concert, too. Coincidence or not, in
this grief-stricken moment, it offered
comfort, and Hua's tribute began even
earlier. Back to September 21st, 10 days
after Yu's death, Hua performed I wish I
could come back at the Fosan music
festival. Nisonens interpreted it as a
memorial full of hidden signals. Why?
The stage visuals were packed with
meaning. A white figure falling from a
height, directly echoing you fatal fall.
Above hovered a huge black hand
symbolizing puppet master forces,
hinting it wasn't an accident. Multiple
stairways suggested high-rise floors.
Shattering glass symbolized a life
broken and truth hard to find. Most
heart-rening at the song's climax as the
white figure falls, a gentle white hand
appears on the screen to catch him. Many
cried, saying, "We all wish we could
catch the little dragon." The design
even woven Yu's favorite pink,
alternating black and white with color
to evoke the sorrow of separation by
death. Under immense pressure, Hua
mounted a silent farewell for his
brother through music and staging. Their
bond touched everyone. Their friendship
began on the 2013 Super Boy stage. Hua
has often said he and you were closest.
When you was eliminated back then, Hua
broke down backstage, needing support to
stand. Such pure friendship is rare in
an industry of fame and gain. After the
tragedy, Nisonens unearthed a message
you wrote to Hua 12 years ago, now
chillingly prophetic. If I'm not around,
what will you do? Wholl keep you
company? Fine then, take care of
yourself. No one will wake you up
anymore. A once playful line became a
farewell. Hua's brave tribute acted like
a fuse, pushing you's already suspicious
case back to the forefront of public
scrutiny. Truth may be late, but memory
won't fade. A kind, gentle young actor
left this world at 37. His passing drew
genuine grief from many stars. Yangmi's
fourth brother, Go Well, Chin Kuans
summer of 2013, testifying to his good
reputation.
His best brother, Hua Yu, under heavy
pressure, used music and stage craft to
hold a silent memorial, hoping to awaken
more people's memory and conscience. His
fans, the so-called fan girl ranks, took
to the streets and roared. Over 260,000
people around the world have signed a
petition for justice. His company stock
collapsed. An executive resigned,
perhaps the tip of a massive iceberg
melting in the shadows. We've said so
much not to hand you a definitive
answer. Under current circumstances, no
one may be able to. We're trying to
piece together the fragments so you can
see that outside the official script,
there's another version far more
startling. One Nison said it best. I
just want the truth and the perpetrators
held to the law. Another wrote,
"We're not the netisonens of 9
years ago. Covering mouths won't work.
Justice lives in people's hearts." Yes,
Yuming Longs tragedy ripped open
one of the darkest, ugliest corners of
China's entertainment world and the
broader power system. We ordinary people
may not change things instantly, but we
can refuse to forget, keep watching,
keep asking. Every share, every
discussion adds one more brick paving
the way for truth. Like the gentle white
hand that caught the falling figure on
Ha stage, let our memory catch this kind
soul who should never have been lost.
