Wen Wan cleared her throat pretentiously, "Alright, stop going off topic! Teacher Wen's class rarely starts, and it's not good for children to go off topic all the time. They're probably doing it on purpose. Just give them a beating!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone shut up and continued to listen to her attentively.
Wen Wan suppressed her smile and spoke seriously, "Why do I have such a good relationship with my fans? Because I never treat them like leeks. I never even treat them as fans. I always treat them as friends."
"I know that many artists use fans as a means to make a quick buck, but I really don't want to be like that. Of course, it's not that I don't want to make money. After all, who wants to do a job that doesn't make money?"
"But a gentleman loves money but earns it in a proper way. Every time we release an album, we carefully guarantee the quality. We hope that people are willing to spend money to buy it because the songs in the album are good, and not just because they like us.
"There's nothing to be proud of about having fans spend money on us. Only when fans and passersby feel that this album is worth buying, that the money is well spent, and that the money is proportional to the quality of the album, can we call it success!"
When the rice bowls heard this, they all expressed their feelings.
"Our Star's album is truly worth it! The quality is always top 1 among girl groups!"
"Our passerby albums are really awesome. My friend isn't a big fan of Xinghe, but he always buys his albums every time he releases one. He says they're both good-looking and have great songs."
"When I was still in school, before the stars appeared, I was a fan of another band. The big fan group led the charge to force you to spend money, and if you didn't spend money, you would be expelled from the fan group. I don't know what I was thinking at the time. I actually saved my breakfast money to buy an album. I was really stupid."
Wen Wan listened carefully to everyone's words before responding, "I really despise this kind of tasteless money-making method. Let me tell you, you are always the most important. When it comes to your personal interests, idols and other things have to take a back seat. You must always put yourself before your idols."
After she finished speaking, she tilted her head slightly to look at Chen Wanqing, chuckled, and said, "Times are different now. In the past, everyone was just chasing stars without thinking, so they were easily deceived. But now it's completely different. Fans can of course tell whether you are really improving your professional ability and bringing everyone good works, or just want to make money by just doing an average job every time."
"I've said before that any relationship is mutual. You have to exchange sincerity for sincerity. The same goes for my fans. I draw strength from them, and they draw happiness from me. If you treat them sincerely, they will naturally treat you sincerely too."
Shen Wanqing lowered her head and sighed, then expressed her opinion to her: "You are really serious about everything, whether it is business or interpersonal relationships. Perhaps this is the key to your success."
She paused and sighed, "...If only I had heard these words sooner. When you hit me, they must have been very disappointed and sad, even feeling sorry for me."
"It's fine if you stop being my fan. You won't have to be scolded along with me if you stop being my fan. There's no point in being a fan of a rotten person like me. I'll be happy if they can find a better idol."
Wen Wan couldn't help but curl her lips when she heard this. She said she was happy, but tears welled up in her eyes. Wasn't this a lie? No one would believe it!
"Although I really hate those foolish fans of yours who stir up trouble everywhere, I have to admit that you still have a few die-hard fans. When you were in trouble before, they were trying to clean up your mess. But after the truth was revealed, they just laid low and let people mock them. A few days ago, they even said they were waiting for you to come back."
"I think this behavior is quite stupid. They can still like a rotten person like you, and their values are quite distorted. Maybe they just love you so much that they can't help themselves. If I put myself in your perspective, I think they should be very moved. Who knows, if you continue to sing after you get out, they will still support you."
Chen Wanqing gave a bitter smile. Although she felt disappointed, she also felt a glimmer of hope. "I am sorry for them. If I have another chance in the future, I will definitely work hard to be a good artist."
"It's difficult to be a good artist." Wen Wan raised her head slightly and looked at the sky, then changed the subject and said, "But it's not without opportunities."
"What you did might not be as serious as soliciting prostitution, but it's still a stain on your life. People might not even give you a chance to correct it. If you still want to come back and sing, you must be prepared to face obstacles, ridicule, and failure."
"As a public figure, you have the responsibility to lead and discipline your fans. Perhaps you feel a little dissatisfied, thinking, 'I have so many fans, I can't manage them all individually, right? Why should their actions be blamed on me?'"
"It's true that their actions of pulling you down and stirring up trouble will be blamed on you, and it will bring shame to you, but if you do something bad, it will also be blamed on them. When your reputation is ruined, they might be too embarrassed to say they're your fans because it's too embarrassing. They'll feel bad if they stop following you, and they'll feel bad if they don't. Doesn't that make you feel more balanced?"
"Yeah." Shen Wanqing nodded expressionlessly.
Wen Wan didn't know if she understood or not. Since the police hadn't arrived yet, she just chatted. "That's why you should set an example and lead and discipline them well. You'll be proud of your achievements, and your fans will be proud too. Only when everyone is happy can we be truly happy."
"When something goes wrong, you hide away, letting them, unaware of the situation, charge into battle for you, using you as a pawn to get scolded by others. Then, when you're exposed as the real culprit, anyone would be so pissed off you'd die."
"Maybe there really are a lot of disobedient fans, but that's okay. You just need to lead the majority of your fans. They will help you discipline the disobedient ones. Over time, they'll assimilate and everything will be fine!"
After she finished speaking, she pointed to the rice bowls next to her and said, "Look, how well-behaved my rice bowls are!"
When the rice bowls heard this, they shook their heads like rattles and spoke at once.
"Wanbao is right! We are very good and obedient. We don't cause trouble, but we are not afraid of it either!"
"We don't initiate fights, but those who provoke first are the meanest. If we encounter those who are looking for a fight, we will definitely satisfy them!"
"Woo woo woo, our rice bowls are all cute little angels! They are so well-behaved and obedient!"
After listening to this, Shen Wanqing curled her lips and complained about them: "Yeah, you are so well behaved. Even if you are against me, I am still well behaved."
Wen Wan: "...You really are a little bit crazy. Are you going to die if you don't sabotage me?"
She was furious and was about to hit someone with a punch, but unexpectedly a police car arrived at this moment.
