Chapter 588: Chapter 267 Ancestral Land_3 Chapter 588: Chapter 267 Ancestral Land_3 By the time these videos were restored to high-definition images, the video producers began a technical analysis of them. They discovered that the videos broadcast by the BBC bore clear signs of editing, which had gone unnoticed previously due to the videos' blurriness. However, once the videos were in high definition, the editing traces were blatantly obvious. In other words, the videos the BBC broadcast were manufactured through human processing and not original footage. To prevent viewers from detecting the manipulation within, they had deliberately blurred the videos. As a result, the content within these videos could not necessarily be considered truthful.
Then, the video producers captured images of the interviewees who were injured in the bomb attack and investigated their identities. It turned out that, apart from five individuals who were genuine victims of the explosion, the other eight who appeared as victims to accuse Yang Qi all had another identity–they were in fact all intelligence personnel from the US CIA.
To prove the true identities of these CIA intelligence personnel, the video producers also presented their internal CIA profiles and registered photos. Under the comparison made by the video producers, it was evident that these individuals were not victims at all, but intelligence personnel from the United States. Subsequent scenes in the video showed these CIA intelligence agents strolling and dining in other locations after participating in the media interviews, completely unharmed and without any injuries.
People were initially drawn in by the video's title and then led by the video producer to scientifically deduce the case, only to discover that all the videos and witnesses accusing Yang Qi were fake. In the end, those watching the video concluded that Yang Qi was not a KB member at all; he had been framed.
As soon as this video, which exposed the US government's blatant fabrication, appeared, it spread widely on the Internet. The US government also noticed the inconsistency in the video's content and immediate contacted administrators of video websites and forums to start removing the footage. However, the video uploader was not simple either. As soon as his video was deleted, he would upload it again to ensure it was widely viewed.
While the video producers and the US government wrangled over the uploading and deleting of the video, another video surfaced on the Internet. This video was from a closed-door meeting of the US National Security Department. The content of the meeting had nothing to do with national security; rather, they discussed how to frame Yang Qi and detain him in the United States.
During this meeting, they developed several specific implementation plans, and these plans coincided exactly with the details of the Yang Qi KB Attack incident. That is to say, Yang Qi's ordeal of being wanted was entirely planned and executed by the US National Security Department. The so-called KB members and the KB Attack were merely a frame-up by the United States against Yang Qi, who was innocent.
While everyone was shocked by the explosive revelations in the video, more videos related to Yang Qi appeared on the Internet. In these videos were the supposed original and unedited scenes of Yang Qi executing bomb attacks–unlike the ones broadcast by the BBC.
In these videos, Yang Qi's behavior appeared completely normal, without any improper actions. However, after being edited by the US side, Yang Qi suddenly turned into a malevolent KB member, and was subsequently pursued by the US authorities. It must be acknowledged that the US side's video editing capability is indeed powerful, having achieved a level that made the fake seem authentic.
The multitude of videos that cropped up on the Internet made those watching them feel as uneasy as if they had swallowed a fly. They realized that the KB member Yang Qi they believed in was innocent, which they found highly embarrassing. After all, they stood on the side of justice and condemned the guilty. How could the situation have turned around ? Moreover, they felt the US government, which supposedly represented their side of justice, was in fact evil and would stop at nothing to achieve its ends.
As the public fell into confusion, the US management department decisively cracked down, beginning to systematically ban these videos. As soon as any video uploads were discovered, they were immediately blocked. But clearly, the person uploading the videos was also a computer expert. Even after the videos were deleted from the site and the video upload function temporarily disabled, he didn't give in. Instead, he simply hacked the website servers, using the highest account privileges to upload his videos and to stick them at the top to ensure that they would be seen by more people.
In retaliation against the US side's censorship of these videos, the uploader also infiltrated important institutional official websites of the White House and Congress, uploading the videos there. This not only ensured that more people could see the videos but also openly mocked the US government.
It was now just past 5 AM in the United States, but the Chinese Embassy there swiftly became aware of these videos and learned the whole truth of the situation. They began to lodge overnight protests to the US government, demanding assurances for the safety of the Chinese citizen Yang Qi. Meanwhile, the previously clownish Beijing Research Institute became subdued and ceased making any public statements about Yang Qi's situation.
