Chapter 129: Should We Charge Again?
Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Should We Charge Again?
Wu Mu’s anti-fans started murmuring in their usual gathering spots.
"Someone’s buying negative press to smear Wu, right?"
"Definitely, this trickery is so fake at first glance."
"Laughing my ass off, did Wu get on someone’s bad side again?"
"It seems like it’s Xiao Yi’s side buying the smear stories, I see a lot of Xiao Yi’s fans getting involved."
Xiao Yi?
Isn’t that their old rival?
If it were before, they would have organized a counterattack already, fiercely pushing back.
But now... some people were getting restless.
"Sisters, should we charge in again?"
"Charge at who?"
Charge at who?
Of course, at Wu!
Originally, everyone had already lost the desire to go after Wu.
After all, it’s pointless to curse him; he still secures endorsements and appearances on shows.
Usually, a few curses when they see him and that’s it, the idea of spending energy to organize and boycott together was just a waste of their expressions.
But seeing someone buying negative press to smear Mu, they got a bit restless again.
Since there’s someone targeting Wu, he should have a countermeasure, right?
If they all worked together, maybe they could actually cause some damage to Wu?
The Wu Mu anti-fans quickly reached a consensus.
"Charge!"
"We definitely can’t let Wu have an easy time!"
"Boycott and report him together!"
"Get him off the show!"
...
In Beijing, in Zhang Li’s small apartment, Han Yan, who was visiting her best friend, laughed heartily at her phone.
Zhang Li, who had been absorbed in her book, had her attention snagged, "What are you laughing at?"
Enjoying the disaster befalling someone else, Han Yan laughed, "Wu’s in for it again!"
She held up her phone to show Zhang Li.
On her phone screen, there was a group chat named "Death to Wu" on the Penguin app.
The group chat was in full mute mode, with only the admins sending out a series of action directives and specific execution files.
Zhang Li stared at it for a while and then understood, "Are they boycotting Wu... Wu, again?"
Han Yan giggled and nodded, "Right, Wu’s going to be on the six or seven o’clock evening news on Beijing TV Station, and now a rival has bought some smear press about him, and his anti-fans are following suit."
While taking pleasure in others’ misfortune, she felt a bit speechless about her best friend.
Sister, if you can’t bring yourself to call him Wu, then don’t force it; I won’t tease you if you call him Mu.
"He’s going to be on the six or seven evening news?" Zhang Li was quite curious.
Han Yan nodded, "Yeah, it seems so, there are already photos of the rehearsal online."
She flipped out the leaked photos from Weibo for Zhang Li to see.
Zhang Li took it and looked closely, nodding, "He must be going to sing, I wonder what song he will choose."
Han Yan speculated, "Either it’s a new song, or it’s that one he sang a few days ago, ’The Brightest Star in the Night Sky,’ which is very positive."
No, wait, is that we’re concerned about what song he’s going to sing now?
Han Yan felt speechless, "You don’t seem worried about your idol being boycotted and pulled from the show."
Zhang Li wouldn’t admit it, "He’s not my idol."
She thought for a moment and then continued, "It probably won’t work, there have been several boycotts before, and they didn’t do a thing."
Han Yan grinned, "But this time it’s different, this time there are way more people boycotting him, he might actually get kicked out."
It really was different this time. Just in that brief moment, she had already seen several different fan groups initiating a new round of boycotts against Wu Mu.
Wu Mu’s rivals had hired troll armies to publish hit pieces, former die-hard fans had turned into anti-fans, casual haters, Xiao Yi’s fans, and even some of Mo Mo’s fans joined in.
Now Wu Mu was really getting attacked from all sides online, with everyone brushing up the boycott against him.
Every official account related to the matter was flooded with insults, and with the addition of the usual real-life reporting routine, she felt that the Beijing TV Station might really not be able to withstand the pressure.
Despite Han Yan describing a dire situation, Zhang Li still seemed unconcerned, "If he’s dropped, he’s dropped. He doesn’t have to worry about not being invited to shows. Another will come along soon enough, and with his momentum, it’s only a matter of time before he breaks into big-time galas."
"Besides, I bet he doesn’t care about this at all."
As she spoke, Zhang Li casually took out her phone and started searching. Soon, she found what she was looking for and showed it to Han Yan with a laugh, "Look."
Han Yan curiously looked at her phone screen, which displayed Wu Mu’s latest Weibo post.
His most recent update had just been two minutes ago. The content was...
Dynasty Domination’s official account: "The new version will add two new generals and unlock a new level for the main city, as well as adjust the combat report interface..."
Wu Mu ’Evolved’ liked and commented below, "Hurry it up, will you? If you update this slow, do you still want to make money?"
Han Yan: "..."
Seeing her speechless reaction, Zhang Li couldn’t help but snicker, "Right? He doesn’t care."
Wu is a real piece of work!
Everyone here is cursing him to hell, and he still has the nerve to play games! He’s still concerned about game updates!
Just like that, Han Yan didn’t feel as much schadenfreude as before.
Not only did Zhang Li notice Wu Mu’s Weibo activity, but other netizens did too.
Doubtlessly, they all felt as speechless as Han Yan.
What, isn’t he scared at all?
Everyone is boycotting and reporting him, wishing his career would completely collapse, and he’s acting like nothing’s wrong?
If Wu doesn’t care, they do.
If Wu isn’t suffering, they are.
There were people immediately responding with harsh comments,
"Trash really is trash, still playing games at a time like this."
"Haha, don’t tell me you think you’re something special, taking shamelessness as a badge of honor?"
"On the surface, you act as if you’re above it all, but inside you’re probably dying to cry, right? What’s with the act?"
"Pathetic, just deluding yourself, aren’t you? Too scared to respond about the gala?"
Huh?
Wu Mu looked at these replies on his phone and was somewhat baffled.
Where did he act like he was something special?
Where did he feel like crying?
Deluding oneself? No way.
Wu Mu felt that compared to himself, these people were the ones overreacting.
But... Wu Mu looked at that last comment saying he was afraid to respond.
If they wanted a response, he’d give them one.
Wu Mu switched over to his Weibo page, started tapping away, and soon sent out a new post.
Wu Mu ’Evolved’: "To respond to the online uproar, yesterday, Geng Wei, the boss of Tianwei Entertainment, came to me with an offer of a billion yuan and a role starring alongside Xiao Yi in a big-budget BL adaption with the intent to sign me. But firstly, I’ve heard that Tianwei Entertainment’s artists are treated like slaves, and I’m not interested in being one. Secondly, I have no plans to sign with any company, and thirdly, I’m not interested in acting in any BL adaptation, so I directly refused. And that’s what led to the events of today."
These kind of things are the unspoken rules of the industry, others certainly have all kinds of reservations and wouldn’t dare to speak out.
But clearly, Wu Mu had no such reservations; revealing it to spite Geng Wei a bit still felt somewhat amusing.
