“The seats for this kind of event will definitely be arranged according to popularity and stuff like that.” Haina’s expression didn’t look too good. “Lin Youyan did become famous earlier and has more fans. If her position is better than Jiang Jiang’s, I wonder how she’ll react.”
However, speaking of which, Jiang Xun and Lin Youyan actually hadn’t officially met in school. It was just that Youyan had been the one to treat Jiang Xun as an imaginary rival and declare war on her. It had gotten to the point where even her fans were treating Jiang Xun as an enemy.
They were currently celebrating under the Weibo post where Lin Youyan had posted her invitation.
[I can see the real Yanyan now!]
[When will the tickets for Influencer Day go on sale? I want to go to the venue to see Yanyan.]
[Yanyan has already posted the invitation. Where’s Jiang Xun?]
[Yeah, she’s been very arrogant recently. She’s also the fastest to gain fans in history and her live stream popularity is overwhelming. Why hasn’t she posted the invitation? Could it be that Shanpin didn’t invite her?]
[She’s Shanpin’s favorite daughter and even got promoted by them. Why doesn’t she even have an invitation?]
[Hehe, doesn’t this indirectly prove that someone’s fans and live stream popularity are very high? She’s only popular on the surface. Shanpin can see the actual data, so they know exactly what Jiang Xun is capable of. That’s why they didn’t invite that wench.]
As she read through the posts, Jiang Xun couldn’t help but think that the people mindlessly supporting Lin Youyan were useless when it came to getting more MP, so she had to stir up more dissent.
Therefore, she cut to her alternate account, Jiangxun’s Hater.
However, just as she logged into her account, she received a private message.
Split Underpants: “Yo man, we’ve made a group to form an anti-jiang Xun Alliance. I’m pulling you in! You’ll be our backbone!”
Jiang Xun: “Seriously? Hurry up and let me in!”
Soon after, Split Underpants sent Jiang Xun the link to a group account, which she quickly joined. The moment she entered the group, she realized that there were quite a number of people there. There were actually more than 200 members!
And these were just the haters who had entered the group. There were definitely many who had yet to find the organization. But it didn’t matter—these 200 people were all online. As long as they developed the group further, the haters would have unlimited potential…for MP, of course.
Split Underpants: [Welcome, Hater Bro.]
Jiangxun’s Hater: [Did you all see that Lin Youyan posted an invitation for Shanpin Influencer Day? Jiang Xun hasn’t posted anything, so she’s definitely not attending.]
Jiang Xun then posted a screenshot of Lin Youyan’s fans’ comments. [I think what they said makes sense. Jiang Xun’s popularity is definitely exaggerated. We don’t know the full details, but Shanpin was clearly aware of her true popularity, so they didn’t send her an invitation letter.]
Milk Candies: [Then what are we waiting for? Let’s join forces with Lin Youyan’s fans!]
Jiang Xun secretly praised Milk Candies for being a good person for bringing the suggestion up before she had to. He had succeeded in his daily efforts to defame himself!
While all of this was going on, the system watched Jiang Xun silently.
As expected of the Host.
With the addition of Jiang Xun’s haters, the majority of Weibo and Shanpin comments were all ridiculing Jiang Xun for not receiving an invitation and not being able to go to the Influencer Day celebrations.
Scrap Pickers of the past: [Shanpin Chat gave her so many recommendations, but in the end, they found out that she was a fake, so she didn’t give her an invitation.]
Split Underpants: [How expensive is Shanpin’s recommendation slot? It’s all wasted on such a fake.]
Jiangxun’s Hater: [Jiang Xun should change her name to a fake. I feel bad for Shanpin for wasting so much money on her, but in the end, it was a mistake.]
KISS youyan: [Maybe she can change it to 666. It suits Jiang Xun very well.]
Sudden youyan: [Nothing screams fake more than being ridiculed by the whole internet.]
Jiang Xun saw that the controversy was almost reaching its peak, so she switched to her main account and posted her invitation letter for Shanpin’s Influencer Day on Weibo and Shanpin.
[I thought that there was no need to post an invitation letter. But since everyone is curious, I’ll post it,] she commented.
All the haters as well as Lin Youyan’s fans were all struck silent.
[Merit Points + 593]
Today’s JJ: [Hahahahaha, are you a big sister or a big boss?]
Spicy JJ: [Some people think that a simple invitation is worth that much? Not to the big boss Xun!]
Super Sweet JJ: [Big Boss Xun: I heard that someone wants to see my invitation letter?]
Jiang Jiang Shredding: [Sister Xun: I’ll satisfy all of you.]
Jiang Xun looked at the MP that she had just earned and thought that it was good that she had so many haters. This amount of MP that she’d gotten was not worth mentioning when compared to the number of haters she had. Not all of her dissenters had given her MP
However, as long as she had enough haters, even if only one percent or even one thousandth of them contributed MP to her, there would be a very good result.
*
Half a month passed peacefully, during which Jiang Xun uploaded a few small videos and live streamed twice.
In these two times, her fans increased even more, but the number of haters also increased. Fewer netizens doubted her, but no matter what she did, those haters would find some way to ridicule her.
Therefore, her Merit Points continued to increase steadily. Right now, she already had a total of 3,745 merit points, so she wasn’t too far off from the 5000 she needed.
A week before the start of the festival, the official account on Weibo and Shanpin officially announced the time of the festival.
It had also opened a poll where netizens could vote for their favorite online celebrity.
It was said that the top 10 celebrities could all receive the corresponding awards, so all the major online celebrities had called on their fans to vote for them.
Winning the awards was one thing, but the most important reason was that they didn’t want the votes to look too ugly. After all, they were all internet celebrities with millions of fans. If they had a lot of fans but didn’t have a proportional number of votes, wouldn’t that mean that they weren’t actually popular?
Losing face was one thing, but it would also affect their Shanpin promotions.
However, Jiang Xun was the only one who didn’t call on her fans to vote.
The fans did not even realize that there was such a vote until two days after the list was opened.
By the time they found out, there were only five days left to vote. The voting channel would be closed one hour before the official start of Influencer Day Day, which was at 6 p.m.
Jiang Xun’s fans immediately worked hard to vote for her. Even so, because they were two days late, Jiang Xun’s ranking was still far behind, and she was now ranked 10th.
The person ranked first was a male internet celebrity with the username “Vnknown” on Shanpin. He specialized in making funny short videos and had more than 50 million fans.
Lin Youyan was ranked the highest among the female internet celebrities and was ranked third.
At this moment, Youyan’s fans started getting pompous again.
[Yo, wasn’t Parallel Seeker pretty awesome previously? Wasn’t his livestream popularity and the amount of gifts first? Why didn’t it work when the fans got one vote each?]
[Who knows if the previous ones were scammed? Do you think that Parallel Seeker’s popularity came from nothing?]
[During the voting period this time, an IP can only vote once, not every day. After one vote, it’s gone, and you can’t vote from another account, either. This depends on your real ability, and it’s not something that can be created by scamming.]
[How dare you compare yourself to our Yanyan?]
