Chapter 267: Chapter 247: The Heat is Going to Explode

Zhou Qing was somewhat shocked.

Two Wu Mu videos in a row?

What a coincidence.

After his initial surprise, he didn’t dwell on it much, just assumed it was a coincidence.

But after glancing at the likes and comments on the videos, he immediately felt something was off.

One hundred twenty thousand likes?

Ten thousand comments?

I mean, I could understand if the previous video had higher quality data.

This one, which just cuts scenes from a Wu Mu show, getting these numbers? He found that hard to understand.

Zhou Qing instinctively clicked into the comments section of the video.

"The first time I heard of this guy, turns out he sang ’The Brightest Star in the Night Sky.’ Our school plays that song every day."

"Ha ha, Wu’s ’The Brightest Star in the Night Sky’ is indeed overplayed in schools. The other day I went to pick up my nephew, and their school’s dismissal bell was this song."

"Wu’s songs are really evergreen. Actually, I think his ’Under the Sea’ performance should rank first; I can barely listen to it more; it’s too depressing."

"Agree, can’t listen too much, brings out all the sadness inside."

"Only when you look into it do you realize that Wu barely has any bad songs. I wonder about the quality of his new album."

"New album? Is Wu releasing a new album?"

"Yes, reservations have already started, but Wu hasn’t promoted it."

The comments section was very active, especially for this type of video. To have so many comments was already outstandingly high.

Zhou Qing noticed that, underneath, quite a few comments were discussing his new album.

Was Wu Mu buying marketing?

But he hadn’t heard anything about it, and why wouldn’t they utilize their own company for marketing?

This account didn’t have many followers and didn’t look like a marketing company’s bot.

Zhou Qing pondered in confusion for a while and then continued scrolling.

The third video finally wasn’t from Wu Mu, but from some other singer’s variety show.

But... after scrolling down a few more, seeing more Wu Mu clips and exceptionally higher data levels...

Something was not right!

Something was not right!

This was way too suspicious!

His keen senses developed from being in this field immediately alerted Zhou Qing to a problem.

One or two could be coincidences, but this frequency was beyond explanation by mere chance.

Known facts: Wu Mu himself hadn’t done any marketing or contacted any marketing firms; most of these accounts were also personal accounts.

Also known: without any marketing investment, Wu Mu’s videos were appearing frequently, with noticeably higher numbers...

There could only be one answer—audiences wanted to watch Wu Mu’s videos! Wu Mu’s clips were hot! Everyone wanted to know about Wu Mu’s album, so the big data skewed towards Wu Mu!

It was like when there’s a major safety incident or international news breaking, people urgently want to know the details, and thus videos related to such events get higher metrics.

At such times, it’s not about the incidents leveraging their platform’s traffic but their channels leveraging trending traffic.

After realizing the crux, Zhou Qing could hardly sit still.

No, he couldn’t miss this golden opportunity!

This was the perfect time for boosting video metrics and gaining followers.

"Everyone, meeting!"

"Every account, start cutting Wu Mu’s videos!"

...

"It’s finally about to be done."

Bilibili upload creator, seasoned Wu Mu Anti-fan, abandoned goddess Little Jiejie sighed as she looked at the nearly finished new mashup video.

Even though her new video was almost done, there was not a bit of joy in her heart, only a feeling of guilt.

"How could I fall so low!!"

Regretfully, she gently smacked her newly bought keyboard.

What made her so regretful started with a business offer that came to her half a month ago.

"How much to make a custom mashup video?"

The client who approached her had asked.

A business deal?

That kind of request felt almost like a voice from another world, practically making her heart leap right then.

Although Wu had gained over 600,000 followers from the previous "Chop Wu Dog" meme video and several other high-quality meme videos, making him a not-too-big, not-too-small video uploader,

this was actually his first time getting a business offer.

Who seeks out meme video creators for ads?

He was immediately thrilled and promptly asked the other party what kind of meme video they wanted.

But the client’s request had left him cold.

"I want a custom meme video of Wu Mu. His new album is about to be released, but he’s not planning to make an album MV, so I want you to edit an alternative MV for him in meme style."

"My idea is to use a style similar to that of a blockbuster countdown, taking clips from his previous shows, and end with a countdown to his album release. Of course, this is just a rough idea, if you have better suggestions, let’s go with your plan."

"I saw your previous ’Chop Wu Mu’ video, haha, you were able to create such an excellent video for him and even knew shots from some of his lesser-known early shows, you must also be his fan, right?"

No, was this person ordering a positive meme video about Wu Dog?

And he called him a fan of Wu Dog!?

Prawn-brained indeed!

This person must not know that his goddess started hating him because of Wu Dog!

Does this person know that his last video was meant to bash Wu Dog, but it actually helped Wu Dog, making him feel terrible?

Little Jiejie wanted to curse on the spot.

He wanted to tell this dumb client to get lost.

But...

"Would one hundred thousand be enough for such a video?"

He had planned to righteously refuse... but the offer was just too good.

Watching the video enter the review process,

he sighed again.

Well, time to sleep first.

The next day, after lacking sleep for half a month, a refreshed Little Jiejie got up from the bed.

But he only felt refreshed for a moment.

After realizing what he had done the day before, he felt mentally awful again.

Hesitantly, he picked up his phone from beside his pillow, wanting to check the numbers on the video he uploaded yesterday.

Then...

"Damn! Sixteen million!??"

Is that real?

He was stunned.

Was it that easy to rake in views with Wu Dog?

Over ten million last time, and now over sixteen million!?

He thought a hundred thousand views would have been a stretch for his new video.

He had never dreamed it could reach a staggering sixteen million.

Was Wu Dog some kind of human traffic cipher?

If he kept editing videos of him, could he become a top-100 uploader?

Little Jiejie’s heart thumped wildly.

But what was the cost...

He opened the comment section of his video, unsurprised.

"Uploader can’t hide being a fan of Wu Dog anymore, just openly admitted it now."

"Haha, even making a promotional MV for Wu Dog’s album, definitely a fan of Wu Dog."

"I asked him before, and he denied it, saying he was an anti-fan of Wu Dog. I felt something was off long ago; this guy knows so much about Wu Dog’s shows, even the footage from his early shows on foreign TV, he’s obviously a hardcore fan."

Little Jiejie’s head buzzed.

He was officially tagged a fan of Wu Dog.

How could he explain to everyone that his deep knowledge of Wu Dog was because he had wanted to make his goddess happy?

His goddess, who liked Wu Dog, had blocked him and said her last words to him as the scandal broke.

"Heh, if you could be such a stupid die-hard fan, what good are you? Blocked. Don’t disgust me ever again."

Damn, he really turned into a Wu Dog fan!
