You Don’t Understand The Pain Of Being Popular

Chapter 115: The 115th day of being popular



Chapter 115: The 115th day of being popular

Mu Taozhi put down his phone with a worried expression, while on the other side, Yao Bianliang also retrieved her phone and walked quickly towards the dormitory.

It had been an extremely unlucky day for her, and now she was tired and just wanted to collapse on her bed and take a nap.

Anyway, she had already reached the worst situation possible, so there couldn't be a worse outcome.

That also meant that no matter which way she went, it would be upward.

She refused to believe that it could be so difficult to become cold in the entertainment industry.

With a light click, the dormitory door was slowly pushed open.

The warm yellow light illuminated the whole room, and a few roommates were sitting on their beds chatting, creating a lively atmosphere.

"Liang Liang, you're back," her roommates greeted her warmly, congratulating her. "By the way, have you seen the hot topics being discussed today? Good news keeps coming one after another."

Yao Bianliang forced a tight smile.

Indeed, good news kept coming one after another.

"Yeah, it's just He Yanning and Mu Taozhi posting on Weibo," Yao Bianliang sat down at her own seat, trying to remain calm. "I've already seen it all."

As she spoke, she picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip to calm herself down.

Her roommate looked puzzled. "No, I'm not talking about that good news."

Yao Bianliang's motion of drinking water slightly froze.

"Oh, then you must be talking about the program team's apology and Wei Yan's termination of contract?" she asked. "Come on, tell me, how much have my votes increased this time?"

At this point, she had become numb to the situation.

Even if her personal votes reached the top of the rankings, she should be able to accept it.

After all, no matter how many votes she got in the preliminary round, it would only count in the preliminary round. As long as it didn't have a big impact on the finals, Yao Bianliang could still hold on.

"It's not about the votes," her roommate sighed. "Looks like you really don't know."

A question mark slowly popped up in Yao Bianliang's mind as she looked at her roommate's puzzled gaze.

Her roommate continued, "I'm talking about the video posted by the up-and-coming YouTuber Feng Shiyuan. Now, this video has reached the top of the trending search list."

Feng Shiyuan, what a familiar name.

Yao Bianliang still remembered that it was this person who had brought her the first wave of popularity.

Now, hearing this name again, her heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"By the way, Feng Shiyuan has mentioned you again in the comments," her roommate said curiously. "He's trying so hard to get your attention, are you really not planning to respond to him?"

The title chosen by Feng Shiyuan is very eye-catching and can be said to have mastered the essence of clickbait.

{Idols personally taking action, fans forbidden from voting, how can such a phenomenon occur in today's entertainment industry?}

As the video begins, Feng Shiyuan's smiling face appears on the screen.

"Hello, dear viewers, I am your brother Feng. Today, I want to talk to you about the female celebrity who recently dominated the hot search rankings - Yao Bianliang."

"Most of you may have already heard about the incident where the talented actress was suppressed by the show's production team and received zero votes. However, today, I want to introduce another aspect of Yao Bianliang."

Feng Shiyuan elongates his tone, claps his hands, and then a series of images appear on the screen.

These are all contents posted by Yao Bianliang's fans on social media, as well as screenshots of chat conversations in fan groups.

"In the recent past, Yao Bianliang's vote count was far behind that of other contestants."

"However, it's not because she's not talented enough, but because... she discouraged fans from spending money to vote."

[Wow, she really discouraged fans from voting, is this just a show?]

[Definitely not a show. Remember how her vote count suddenly dropped? If it was just a show, it wouldn't have actually caused the vote count to decrease.]

[Sigh, it reminds me of the time I spent tens of thousands of dollars chasing stars, I was really obsessed back then.]

[Envy, fans of such celebrities are really fortunate.]

Feng Shiyuan: "To be honest, when I saw these contents, I couldn't help but be curious - what is it like to be a fan of Yao Bianliang?"

"So in this video today, I will disguise myself as a fan and use a first-person perspective to let everyone experience what it's like to chase stars."

[Wow, experiencing it from a first-person perspective? This topic seems very interesting.]

[Hahaha, 'disguising' as a fan, those who understand, understand.]

[Upvote, if you were a fan of Yao Bianliang, you wouldn't even need to disguise - after all, you were originally a die-hard fan.]

Feng Shiyuan casually registers a new account with the ID "Xiao Yuan".

It's currently evening, the time when fans are most active. The fan group's messages are coming in one after another.

At this moment, it was evening, when fans were most active. The messages in the fan group kept coming one after another.

Feng Shiyuan casually joined a fan group, and what caught his eye was a series of reminders to complete tasks.

"Ding! Have you voted for Xinxin today? Have you completed the tasks for Xinxin? Have you defended Xinxin against haters?"

"I've done them all! Checked in."

"I've completed the tasks for all 8 apps, reposted, commented, signed in, and posted. Time taken: 2 hours."

"Everything is worth it for Xinxin!"

"New sisters, remember to do the tasks, tag @Xiaoyuan."

Feng Shiyuan: "..."

No, he didn't really want to do the tasks.

Feng Shiyuan politely declined and expressed that completing tasks like this was a waste of time.

Then, he was kicked out of the group by the group admin.

Feng Shiyuan: "???"

[Hahaha, I burst out laughing.]

[The YouTuber got kicked out, I'm so happy.]

[Hilarious, Feng Ge, you better pray, you didn't even get cursed by those fans in the group.]

Naturally, Feng Shiyuan didn't give up and sneaked into another contestant's fan group.
