This paper focuses on the event-triggered bipartite consensus of multi-agent systems in signed networks, where the dynamics of each agent is assumed to be Lur'e system, and both the cooperative interaction and antagonistic interaction are allowed among neighbor agents. A novel event-triggered communication scheme is presented to save limited network resources, and distributed bipartite control techniques are raised to address the bipartite leaderless consensus and bipartite leader-following consensus respectively. By virtue of the Lyapunov stability theory and algebraic graph theory, bipartite consensus conditions are derived, which can be easily solved by MATLAB. In addition, the upper bounds of the sampling period and triggered parameter can be estimated. Finally, two examples are employed to show the validity and advantage of the proposed transmission scheme.
