Chapter 135: Chapter 135: How Are They So Incompetent

Zhang Li got out of the shower before Wu Mu’s program segment.

There was no doubt that a lot of people were waiting for this moment.

The bullet comments, which were somewhat sparse before, were now flooding in at this time.

Not just from Hei Wumu, but also from Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun’s fans, who were cheering on their idols.

The screen was filled with the names of Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun.

As for Wu Mu, almost all mentions of him were from anti-fans calling him Wu, with hardly a few genuine fans supporting him.

Watching this scene, Han Yan, a former Wu Mu fan, couldn’t help but feel sentimental, "In the past, on shows like this, his name would never have fewer mentions than the other two. Every time it was his segment, the fan group would tag everyone to come and support him."

The contrast with the past was just too stark.

Compared to the other two popular idols, Wu Mu had completely become a foil.

This intense contrast undoubtedly left Han Yan, who had participated in many such events before, feeling quite wistful.

Zhang Li, on the other hand, felt it was okay, "After all, he’s demolished his image, he definitely can’t compete with the other two. And he doesn’t care about fan support himself."

"He must still have a lot of fans, otherwise the sales from his previous merchandise and endorsements couldn’t have been so high."

They’ve all become rational fans, the silent majority, huh.

With these thoughts whispering in her mind, Han Yan couldn’t help but glance at her bestie beside her.

Mmm-hmm, there was a silent majority right by her side.

As Han Yan and Zhang Li chatted, the computer screen finally arrived at the group song segment featuring Wu Mu.

Han Yan quickly turned off the bullet comments, intending to listen seriously to Wu’s performance.

"I wonder what song it is." Even as an anti-fan, she was undeniably filled with anticipation.

After all, Wu had built a solid reputation with his singing through the many songs he had performed before; every single one was a hit with no misses.

The anti-fans could criticize his character and past, but his current strength was a bit hard to talk down.

Dressed in white formal wear and made up, Wu Mu walked at the back among the three.

But upon seeing him, even Han Yan couldn’t help but light up.

Damn, Wu is way too handsome!

His usual casual style was already handsome enough, but dressed in formals, with the crisp white outfit accentuating his demeanor, he looked even more dazzling!

And...

"Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun each look quite handsome on their own, but next to Wu, they’re completely in a different league."

Han Yan murmured under her breath.

A few seconds later, Zhang Li, watching the screen with Wu Mu in his formal attire, also smiled and nodded, "It looks like there’s a huge gap."

This sort of gap was something anyone who wasn’t blind could see.

It was like the contrast between internet celebrities and actual stars in the same frame. Netizens often think internet celebrities are pretty, but when alongside real stars, you realize that your attention is completely stolen by the stars.

Speaking of the internet, there has always been much discussion about Wu Mu’s looks.

Some have said that Wu Mu’s looks are the top "fault line" in the circle.

But there would always be many Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun fans who would step up to argue that their "brother" was barely any less handsome than him.

Now, with them all in the same frame, it might be hard for them to stay stubborn in the future.

Regarding the fact that Wu had just appeared and caused a bit of a stir, Hei Wumu, the anti-fans, were inwardly very annoyed.

What’s with Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun being such a letdown! Couldn’t they just look good enough to put up a fight?

But soon, they realized that being outshone in looks was the least of their concerns.

On the show, the stage accompaniment began.

With his striking good looks, Wu Mu began to sing along with the accompaniment, "Back then, you were the same age as me, young like a fresh, unripe song..."

Sure enough, he performed just as well.

Han Yan nodded to herself as she listened. It was too soon to tell if the song was any good, but one thing was certain: Wu Mu’s performance was spotless, consistent with his usual style.

She thought she was about to enjoy another fantastic performance.

But then, Xiao Yi started singing, "I see millions of cute yous, not turning back..."

Han Yan: "???"

What the hell is this???

Han Yan looked at the television screen with a look of complete astonishment.

Zhang Li by her side also looked stunned.

Clearly, they, like Lin Qingyue before, were not accustomed to seeing such a disparity in talent among duet singers during a live broadcast.

So, the thought of Xiao Yi and his partner being utterly outperformed had never crossed their minds.

They had automatically assumed that, even if there were some gaps in skill, it wouldn’t be significant enough to matter.

But this was far from insignificant. In fact, it was getting hard to listen to!

"Damn, are Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun this bad?" Seeing Sun Zhichun’s part, Han Yan was finding it increasingly hard to hold back.

She clicked on the live comments to see if others felt the same way.

The comments were already flooded with question marks.

"???"

"Is my sound system broken?"

"No, Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun’s singing is so much worse than Wu’s?"

"Their voices are so gross! They completely ruined the mood of the song!"

"Looking at the lyrics, such a good song, and these two have destroyed it."

"Ha, the internet is full of people saying these celebrities don’t deserve to be on this show. I think these two are the ones who really don’t belong."

The overwhelming majority of comments expressed disdain for Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun’s performances.

Disaster!

Their idol’s weaknesses had been utterly exposed!

Fans of Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun were starting to feel the sweat on their foreheads, just like their idols on stage.

Before, they could barely ignore the discussions about looks, comforting themselves with mental gymnastics, but now, this singing disaster was too glaring to overlook.

Now the television viewers must be feeling just like the live audience.

Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun’s disruptive performance preventing them from getting into the song.

Even Zhang Li and Han Yan had no mood to appreciate Wu Mu’s performance, just blankly staring at the computer screen.

"Now Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun have really lost face. They’re likely never going to shake off the reputation of being eclipsed by Wu," Han Yan said, at a loss for words.

Zhang Li shook her head in amusement, "Their fans’ previous attacks on Wu are completely backfiring now. After this, all anyone will remember is Wu’s impressive singing ability."

Despite Xiao Yi’s fans not managing to get Wu Mu kicked off the program, they had certainly managed to tarnish his reputation.

Many people outside of the industry, upon seeing the negative press previously, might have formed bad impressions of Wu Mu.

But Xiao Yi’s performance had turned all that effort into waste, and she could already imagine the reversal that would soon hit the trending searches.

With such a dramatic contrast, it would be strange if it didn’t trend.

Zhang Li wasn’t the only one who could foresee this; Wu Mu’s anti-fans could see it too.

Han Yan’s phone vibrated, and in the Wu Mu anti-fan group she had joined, the group admin was tagging everyone.

Hei Wumu group admin: "Xiao Yi and Sun Zhichun are really dumbasses. How dare they perform alongside Wu with that level of skill!??"
