Many of the exposes about Bai Ying in December 2021 were posted by accounts whose motivations later became suspect. None of them mentioned that Bai Ying has a background in theatre and is a stage director and critic, and that his stage projects were supported by CAPA. For example, 广陵绝 Sound of the Sword, a play directed by Bai Ying in 2019, was funded by 开心麻花, a CAPA executive director unit<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20221208075255/https://www.douban.com/location/drama/photo/2569347259/ 舞台剧照 - 话剧《广陵绝》]</ref><ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220814222158/http://www.capa.com.cn/member/directorlist?type=B 中国演出行业协会 常务理事单位]</ref>.

The main account, 老年人真的不是故意的, first appeared on December 5th, 2021, claiming to be a retired [[CCDI]] official, and hinted heavily that it was run by a woman. The account gifted a large number of presents on [[Li Xuezheng]]'s livestreams, an act that antis subsequently used to smear Li and accuse him of getting involved in Zhang Zhehan's case for personal profit. The account became popular in the fandom for writing a long and sympathetic essay praising fans and declaring that it was willing to use its real identity to support Li (but never did so). | The main account, 老年人真的不是故意的, first appeared on December 5th, 2021, claiming to be a retired [[CCDI]] official, and hinted heavily that it was run by a woman.

After Li Xuezheng was muted and the [[Zhang Sanjian]] persona appeared, the 老年人 account became increasingly toxic toward [[Gong Jun]]. It joined in every single smear campaign launched against him and frequently posted malicious memes deriding his looks. Among others, it reposted antis who claimed that the famous Fushimi Inari shrine (a shrine to the god of rice) was politically problematic, [[Hao Jingfang]]'s accusations of Gong Jun ghosting her, and accused Gong Jun of bad acting using a cut from a Word of Honor behind-the-scenes of Gong Jun | |||
joking with the director and Zhang Zhehan. The account began to use vulgar and defamatory language that was at odds with its original rational, bystander persona. | |||

In April 2022, this account was one of the main voices supporting a [[海底月昕上人|law clerk]]'s attack on the Beijing Dongcheng Court. He refused to delete his post and continuously insisted that Zhang's case had not been accepted. He tagged the Supreme People's Court and Supreme People's Procuratorate as well as the Beijing court, inciting fans to directly attack official accounts. | |||

The account was frequently muted, prompting the creation of at least three other side accounts. Weibo accounts are tied to phone numbers, and the creation or purchase of side accounts requires a certain degree of Internet fluency, an action that was again at odds with the account's persona of a 69-year-old retiree who did not know how to use Weibo (his excuse for giving presents on Li Xuezheng's livestream). | |||
In August 2022, on his muted side accounts, he changed the account intro to claim that he was muted for posting a video accusing Gong Jun of being the malicious industry competitor. His main account was subsequently muted for violating laws and regulations, and suspended from changing personal information. He deleted the accusations against Gong Jun from his side accounts. | |||

Besides his attacks against Gong Jun, the account also frequently attacks the [[CP]] fans of Zhang Zhehan and Gong Jun, falsely accusing them of never supporting Li Xuezheng or clarifying for Zhang Zhehan, and referring to this group of fans with vulgar language. | |||
