Chapter 276 Are You Jealous?
Unbeknownst to the two, Ye Wanxi had just parted ways with them when she immediately called Gao Min.
"Sister Gao, do I have a fan group?"
Gao Min was sitting on the sofa watching TV and eating snacks while holding her listless little rabbit. She was a little confused when she received Ye Wanxi's call, but she still answered truthfully: "Yes, you have quite a few fan groups. There are about ten official ones, each with about two thousand people, and they are almost full."
If each group has 2,000 people, and there are about ten groups, wouldn't that be 20,000 to 30,000 people?
Ye Wanxi was surprised. Did she really have that many active fans?
"With so many people, it must be difficult to manage, right? Sister Gao, you don't mean you're in every single group, do you?"
Gao Min rolled her eyes helplessly: "Isn't that obvious? Do you really think I do nothing all day but stay at home with you and eat rice for free?"
"Each of your official groups has a group owner and four administrators. Some of these administrators are your big fans, and some are people from the company. They keep a close eye on the dynamics in your fan groups to ensure that those with ulterior motives cannot use the name of your fans to stir up trouble in your fan groups."
"These group owners, administrators, and your die-hard fans will also create another group, with me as the group owner. The main function of these groups is to serve as a link between artists and fans, facilitating communication, controlling public opinion, and effectively restraining and guiding fan behavior."
"Of course, under normal circumstances, I don't talk much in the group. I just peek at the screen. I only step in occasionally when something happens and I need to communicate with my fans."
Gao Min paused for a moment: "For example, when you had an accident last time, the fans in the group were very concerned about your situation, so I would step in to reassure them and tell them that you were fine."
Ye Wanxi was truly unaware of all the intricacies involved. After a moment of silence, she said earnestly, "Thank you for your hard work."
Gao Min almost laughed out loud: "There's nothing hard about it, this is my job. But you, why are you suddenly asking about the fan group?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly became a little curious."
Gao Min didn't suspect anything, but frowned and said, "Speaking of which, I just got a call. Your game ad should be released in the next couple of days. Recently, a group of online trolls have been stirring up trouble by implying that you were struck by lightning and disfigured, and that you're currently busy getting plastic surgery. Once the ad comes out, the company might follow up with some publicity as a way of dispelling the rumors, so you should be careful."
Ye Wanxi was originally thinking about whether she should take a photo to let her fans know she was safe when she got back, but she was a little surprised to hear Gao Min's words.
"So fast?"
"No, it's been so long. If you keep dragging this out, you'll lose all your popularity."
"Okay, I understand. I'll cooperate with the publicity. But you don't need to worry too much about the buzz lately..."
"What?" When Ye Wanxi said this, Gao Min was watching a TV series that was showing her own artist's scene, and her attention was wandering, so she didn't hear what Ye Wanxi said at all.
"nothing."
Ye Wanxi quickly changed the subject, said a few words to Gao Min, hung up the phone, and turned to look at Feng Tianyu with bright eyes.
"So happy?"
"I'm so happy. This is the first time I've realized how adorable my fans are. Even though I don't know them or understand them, and they've only seen me on the big screen and have never interacted with me, they still like me and care about me so much."
"That's because you're worth it."
Ye Wanxi still felt a little happy and subconsciously wanted to show off to her closest people: "Senior Brother, so many people like me."
"Um."
Ye Wanxi blinked as she looked at her senior brother's expressionless face, belatedly realizing what was happening.
Are you unhappy?
Feng Tianyu remained silent. Ye Wanxi frowned, then a thought flashed through her mind, and her eyes lit up: "Senior Brother, are you... jealous?"
Feng Tianyu looked at the person with an excited expression, as if he had discovered some earth-shattering secret, and said with a mix of annoyance and helplessness, "Does my jealousy make you that happy?"
"Because I know you're jealous because you care about me." Ye Wanxi hugged Feng Tianyu's neck and smiled like a little fox who had just stolen some cream. "But you really don't need to be jealous, because their feelings for me aren't romantic."
Ye Wanxi paused for a moment, her face slightly flushed: "Even if many people like me, I... will only like you."
Ye Wanxi spoke her last few words in a whisper, as soft as a mosquito's buzz, but Feng Tianyu still heard them.
"You what?"
Ye Wanxi was unwilling to repeat herself: "If you didn't hear me, then forget it."
After saying that, he released Feng Tianyu's neck and turned to leave, but Feng Tianyu grabbed him.
"I heard it."
Ye Wanxi didn't turn around, but the tips of her ears turned red: "You heard it and you still asked!"
Feng Tianyu didn't dwell on the topic. He glanced at the claw machine not far away and changed the subject: "Which plushie do you want? I'll win it for you."
Upon hearing his words, Ye Wanxi knew he wasn't angry anymore. While inwardly marveling at how easily her senior brother could be coaxed, she turned her gaze to the little rabbit plush toy inside the claw machine.
"I want that!"
When Feng Tianyu arrived, he immediately saw the snow-white rabbit dolls and was immediately tempted to take them.
Seeing that Ye Wanxi understood his thoughts, he couldn't help but smile: "Okay, I'll help you catch it."
The two older children played at the amusement park until late at night before going home.
When she returned, Ye Wanxi brought a long string of rabbit dolls, so many that they could overwhelm the bed with their fluffy texture.
As Ye Wanxi said, when game advertisements are released, investors don't need to worry about the popularity at all.
Because before this, some people had already spontaneously brought the attention to Ye Wanxi.
