Chapter 121 Do you like me?
"And you fans, why do you even care about this? You give your favorite stars gifts, buy merchandise, buy cards, or buy concert tickets, movie tickets. Isn't it because you like him or her?"
Heizi on the other end of the phone said this with confidence: "Of course!"
Shanshan smiled and said, "Yes, the money is in your hands. How you want to spend it is your own business. Whether it's a celebrity or a live streamer, it's naturally because of a certain quality in them that attracts you and makes you willing to spend money on them.
To put it bluntly, there are so many anchors and celebrities, but not many of them can consume their fans.
A better word would be commercial value. Don't you want your favorite celebrity idol to develop better? Or do you think your favorite idol only needs to be close to the fans and doesn't need the appreciation of the boss or commercial cooperation?
Just when Shanshan thought he had fooled the other party, he didn't expect that the other party suddenly came to his senses again. Of course, it might be that someone else gave him some advice.
"Since you think this is okay, aren't you also exploiting your fans? And wasn't your so-called refund just a show?"
Shan Shan didn't care at all whether the person on the other side was just one person or several people. She didn't answer the question but instead asked, "If, I mean, if that celebrity you like did something like this, wouldn't you feel particularly proud?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she started to say: "I, I am not a fan of anyone, I, I am just a passerby, I just can't stand you."
After saying this, the whole room was filled with:
Who would believe this?
Do you believe it yourself?
As a pure passerby, I say I just watch the show and don't provide any emotional value.
......
Shanshan looked at the comments in the livestream and laughed, "I'll just assume what you said is true. You just used the phrase 'doing it for others to see.' Why do you think I'm doing this for others to see? Do you also feel in your heart that this is something worthy of praise? So if I do it for others to see, they'll praise me?"
"I, I didn't say that."
Shanshan actually understood the girl's thoughts a little bit. When people's values are a little confused, they always generalize and think that their favorite stars must be perfect.
Her little things make them feel that compared with her, other people's inaction is bad, and they don't allow their idols to have any bad things.
In fact, it's just a dead end. Liking someone presupposes that they are a human being, a flawed person. A person who cannot be perfect.
"When you ask me a question, you should first think about whether what I am doing is wrong or whether it is illegal for others not to do it.
Since what I'm doing is not wrong and is actually a good thing, why can't I do it? Since it's not illegal for others to do it, why should others do it?
Measure yourself by morality and others by law, and everything will be solved.
Things aren't that complicated. From my perspective, I helped my fans because I felt it was the right thing to do. From your perspective, what I did wasn't illegal, so there's nothing wrong with it, right? "
There was silence on the other side for a while before the girl asked again, "So you admit that you exploited your fans?"
Before Shanshan could answer, the fans in the live broadcast room were all unhappy:
"What? Shanshan didn't ask for any gifts. We gave them voluntarily."
[That’s right, Shanshan only wanted a gift from me once, yet she still gave us a gift with all her heart. What’s more, you don’t even know that someone offered a thousand dollars for Shanshan’s gift, but I didn’t even give her that gift!!!]
[Don't mention it, the gift that Shanshan gave me was taken by my dad to give away as a gift. I suspect that my dad's current client might also be a fan of Shanshan [I'm so tired]]
[Yes, we all got gifts from Shan Shan! ! ! ]
[I'm a non-African American who has never won a lucky bag. But to be able to eat the gift from Shan Shan, I'm so sad. It's so delicious!]
That Shanshan: "Keep a low profile, the gifts are just a small occasion. We still have a long future ahead of us, and there will be many opportunities to give everyone gifts.
Now let me answer the other person’s question first.”
That being said, her sparkling and proud expression showed that she was very happy because her fans praised her cooking skills.
"Entertainment has always existed since ancient times, with operas and acrobatics. Even those who perform outside hope to earn a living by watching their performances.
Today, art is even more diverse and has taken on new forms. But no matter what kind it is, it still exists to entertain people, to be appreciated by others, and to reward oneself.
Of course, this assumes entertainment. That is, you're spending money on someone because they make you happy, put you in a better mood, and you like them. You wouldn't give someone a gift just because they've pissed you off, would you? As long as they don't throw bricks at you, it's fine.
I ask you, I have just proven that what I did was good and right, so do you like me?"
The girl opposite obviously didn't expect Shanshan to ask this. She paused for a moment before saying, "Who, who likes you? I, I don't like you."
Shanshan looked disappointed: "Why? Am I not good-looking? Didn't I do good things? Why don't you like me?"
"No, if I don't like it, I don't like it. Why ask so many questions!" What if I like it?
Shanshan smiled, clearly finding it amusing to tease others. "Then would you dislike the person you like less just because he hasn't done anything good?"
The girl was confident about this: "Of course not. Besides, it's not like my brother doesn't do good deeds. There are so many good people and good deeds. If others do it, my brother will follow suit. How can he be so busy?"
[Just now I said I don’t chase stars~]
You're exposed, do you know?
Shan Shan pretended not to react and continued, "Don't you understand everything? The person you like has their own strengths and there's no need to compare them with others. So, you're paying for your own likes. You're paying for your own happiness, aren't you?"
Liu Zhecheng and the others who were watching the live broadcast couldn't help but smile. It was obvious that they had already realized that Shanshan had changed the subject.
Originally, the question was about celebrities, but now Shanshan has shifted it to whether people are willing to spend money on their favorite celebrities. If the other party reacts and insists that Shanshan distinguish between "entertainment consumption" and "consuming fans," Shanshan will probably have a headache.
After all, "entertainment consumption" is a voluntary behavior of fans, while "consuming fans" becomes passive consumption, and may even involve deception.
But this kind of thing actually exists. If Shanshan really said it, it would really offend people.
Shanshan saw that the other person had stopped talking again, and then asked, "Do you have any other questions? Otherwise, why don't you just give your phone to the girl next to you?"
After a while, the girl simply said, "It's okay," and then left the microphone.
That Shanshan shrugged. "If that's the case, then we'll just go on to the next person. After all, there's someone waiting behind us."
As he said that, Shanshan opened the fifth one, and it turned out to be another passerby. He chuckled twice and then hung up.
That Shanshan smiled speechlessly: "Next is the last one. I hope I can encounter a real problem this time."
Shan Shan clicked on the other person's microphone. After a few seconds, the other person's voice, with a hint of hesitation, said, "I, I don't mean to scold you. I just want to ask, we've obviously given so much for the person we love, why is he not even willing to stand up and speak up for us? And you, on the other hand, are willing to apologize for your fans. Don't we deserve it?"
The girl's words were filled with confusion, disappointment, and the grievance of being blamed for some time.
Maybe the girl was too suppressed when she spoke, so the live broadcast room suddenly became much quieter.
Be it the shining fans, passersby, or the haters, no one spoke anymore.
The gleaming voice was filled with encouragement. "Although you're very scared, you're braver than that girl just now. She just said something half-truthful and high-sounding, using the interests of all to disguise her authority and pretense of justice, thinking she was right. But she didn't dare to directly express the real reason for her anger."
In fact, I know that many fans are not really angry about being "exploited", but they feel that their efforts are "not worth it" and they feel helpless and disappointed.
Why can the people others like stand up to protect them, but the idol you like can't stand up to protect yourself?
Because you can't find an outlet, I, the instigator, have become your punching bag. After all, between hurting yourself and hurting someone you love, you will naturally subconsciously choose to hurt someone who is not important to you.
After Shanshan finished speaking, the voice on the other end of the phone said with sobs, "I'm sorry."
Shan Shan said nonchalantly, "Although you have indeed caused me great hardship, what I just said was not a lie. When you knew I was about to die, many of you prayed for me from the bottom of your hearts. Besides, as the saying goes, a blessing in disguise, I have also benefited from it. I don't have to pursue this matter any further."
If this incident hadn't happened, Shanshan wouldn't have signed the contract with the Spacetime Mirror, nor would she have met her senior sister. She wouldn't have known the truth behind her coming here. Although it hasn't been completely cleared up yet, at least her coming here wasn't accidental.
Of course, just because Shanshan said she would not pursue these fans doesn’t mean she would let the person behind the scenes go.
"Let's not talk about my affairs for now, let's get back to the essence of your question. When you asked the gods for protection, did you really think that the gods would really protect you?"
