Chapter 88: CHAPTER 88

Sunflower fans were spamming very quickly.

Soon, the atmosphere in the entire live stream became chaotic.

Jiang Ye’s fans could definitely fight back if they wanted to.

But the other fans didn’t need to care about Jiang Ye’s feelings, they even felt like it was better if things got bigger.

But Jiang Ye’s fans needed to care about Jiang Ye’s mood.

So, they held back and didn’t fight back directly, instead, they asked Jiang Ye to close the live stream and told her not to worry.

Jiang Ye knew that her fans were saying this out of kindness.

There are always unspoken rules in fandom fights.

And idols also have to follow these rules.

This means that no matter how fiercely fans fight, they pretend not to see it.

They absolutely cannot intervene, because whoever intervenes will be scolded for snooping around in the fandom, and then they’ll be labeled as “low-class”.

This rule had been in effect until Jiang Ye died in her previous life.

But even after being reborn, Jiang Ye still felt that this so-called unspoken rule was unfair.

Idols are called “low-class” if they intervene.

But if idols don’t intervene, they’ll be scolded for not taking action when things go wrong later.

No matter what, they’ll be scolded, so she might as well take charge.

Besides, they had already come to her live stream and personally attacked her.

Jiang Ye felt that if she pretended not to see it and just closed the live stream and left, that would be truly “low-class”.

The comments were flying back and forth.

Jiang Ye calmed herself down and said, "No matter what happened, can everyone stop attacking each other?"

"If something really happened, please tell me, I’ll take care of it."

Jiang Ye’s fans were dumbfounded, they frantically tried to persuade her.

【Don’t worry, baby!】

【This has nothing to do with you!!】

【Let’s chat next time, be good! Go now!!】

Jiang Ye suddenly smiled.

Her whole aura was bright, her smile was like sunshine, and she didn’t seem scared by the attacks at all.

"When I was live-streaming before, some problems also happened."

"And I said then that I don’t need you to protect me, just believe in me."

Jiang Ye said, "So, can someone tell me what happened?"

"If it’s our problem, I’ll apologize, of course."

You have to take responsibility for the aura you carry.

She knew that.

So, Jiang Ye patiently sifted through a bunch of messy comments and found a few that were reasonable, and she roughly understood the cause and effect.

It was all because of a support color suggestion.

Just a suggestion, not even officially in the running.

And then the two fan groups had been fighting for a day and a night.

And finally, they fought their way into her live stream.

Jiang Ye: "..."

Do fandom fights have a KPI to complete?

Otherwise, is this something worth fighting about in front of the idol and making her judge?

"If it’s about the support color, we haven’t received any notice from the company, so I’m not sure."

"Of course, we respect our seniors."

"I understand, I understand."

"Yeah, that’s right, our seniors debuted earlier, we should know to avoid any conflicts."

"Definitely, I’ll go and find out about our seniors’ support colors tomorrow, make a list and remind myself."

Jiang Ye smiled at the camera, "I understand, okay, that’s all for today’s live stream, have a nice day, bye."

She even waved at the camera.

Sunflower fans: "..."

Jiang Ye said everything and nothing.

If you listened carefully, it felt like she hadn’t said anything.

But her sincere tone made them feel like they had punched a pillow.

Damn.

On the other side, Jiang Ye closed the live stream and started comparing color cards.

She compared them for a long time, then went downstairs to find the others.

Jiang Ye called everyone together, then showed them her phone screen, "Is there a difference between these two colors?"

Shen Zhiyi: "There’s a big difference."

Tan Meng: "They’re clearly different."

Cheng Zhen nodded affirmatively, then looked at Jiang Ye with concern, "Jiang Ye, you don’t have colorblindness, do you?"

"..."

Jiang Ye patted her head and asked, "Then if they’re made into light sticks, wouldn’t they be similar?"

Lin Zui realized that something was wrong, "What’s wrong?"

"Someone came into my live stream and scolded me, saying that our support color is the same as theirs."

Jiang Ye took back her phone and looked at it repeatedly, "But I don’t think it’s that similar."

Lin Zui immediately understood.

She waved her hand, "It’s a basic operation, every year, no matter what support color the debut group chooses, they’ll be scolded for it during the suggestion phase."

She thought for a moment and sighed, "Maybe this is the so-called baptism ceremony that senior fans give to juniors entering the entertainment industry."

Jiang Ye: "..."

Shen Zhiyi was a little confused, "I understand that juniors and seniors from the same company should avoid conflicts, but now it’s evolved to the point where you have to avoid conflicts with everyone in the entertainment industry?"

"I understand."

Jiang Ye said, "This is probably the entertainment industry version of ‘We all have a home called China'."

She finished her joke and then said, "But we haven’t chosen our support color yet, what’s the problem?"

Lin Zui: "It’s better to be safe than sorry, otherwise, it’ll be too late to change it after we choose it."

"Oh my god, I saw it, there are already people posting black topics about our group."

Cheng Zhen flipped through her phone, worried, "What should we do? We just debuted yesterday, this is a big deal, right?"

Jiang Ye said with a big heart, "Let them post, the more they mention my name, the better, it’s like doing data for me."

She was currently trying to move her fans from her Weibo Power List.

Speaking of moving, this was a system she had understood in her previous life, but she still didn’t understand why it was done in this life.

Simply put, there are three spots each month to move an artist’s Weibo position from the Rising Star List to the Mainland List.

If there are only three, it’s fine, but if there are more than three, they have to compete, so the fans who want to move the artist have to work hard to do data and spend money.

Jiang Ye had studied the meaning of moving for a long time in her previous life.

In the end, she came to the conclusion that it was a group activity for fans, to prevent them from leaving when the artist just debuted and didn’t have much exposure.

For the idol, it really didn’t matter if they moved or not.

"I just think it’s interesting."

"Gold is out, of course, similar yellows are also out, we can rule out all of those, what’s left."

Jiang Ye asked, "Can we use red?"

"No."

Lin Zui quickly objected, "Mentor Mu Xingchi’s family is red."

"If we’re talking about seniors and juniors, Sunflower is from another show, they’re a branch, we’re directly related to Teacher Mu, his fans would be the first to scold us."

Jiang Ye: "Then blue?"

Lin Zui said again, "That clashes with my personal support color, if the group fans and solo fans mix together, they’ll definitely fight because of it."

She searched her mind, "And I remember there was a group in China whose support color was blue, they’ve disbanded, but their fans will definitely still defend their support color."

Jiang Ye: "..."

This is really never-ending.

Jiang Ye went through them one by one, she had almost gone through all the main colors on the color card, but every one of them was rejected by Lin Zui, who had a photographic memory for support colors.

Finally, Jiang Ye curiously asked, "What was your group’s original support color?"

Lin Zui said, "Gold."

Jiang Ye: "…?"

Jiang Ye calculated the time, "Your group should have debuted earlier than them."

"Much earlier."

"And when they debuted, our group hadn’t disbanded yet."

Lin Zui shrugged, "So, it’s not really a matter of seniors and juniors, it’s a matter of whether the seniors are obscure."

Jiang Ye: "..."

That’s true.

The entertainment industry is so realistic.

In the end, the sisters who had suggested gold held their ground and didn’t delete the suggestion.

So, the five support color suggestions were forwarded to 5tars by the staff, so they could record a video choosing the fan name and support color.

The fan name was quickly decided, it was Guiding Star.

As for the support color.

Jiang Ye really did what she had said in the live stream, she listed all the support colors of all the popular and obscure groups in China, made a table, printed it out, and showed it to the camera, it was very impressive.

"These are all the support colors of the senior groups."

Jiang Ye said seriously to the camera, "We looked at them, and all four of the suggestions our fans gave us clashed with the support colors of our seniors, so we can only choose the last one."

Platinum gradient.

It’s a good meaning.

We are the light that came out of the Chasing Light Girls.

You are the guiding star that illuminates our path.

Our colors combined are platinum gradient.

Jiang Ye and her teammates felt very serious when they recorded this video.

But they didn’t expect this video to go viral.

A bunch of marketing accounts on the homepage were reposting it.

【Hahahahahaha, the girl group with the strongest survival instinct in China is here!】

【So funny, this is the first time I’ve seen someone list all the support colors of their seniors as a reference.】

【Although I think this elimination method is unnecessary, it’s really funny.】

【Ah, I only knew Jiang Ye’s name before, this girl is so beautiful, I didn’t expect her to be a comedian?】

Jiang Ye, who was secretly snooping around the fandom with a small account a few days later: "?"

This operation actually gained her more fans?

She really didn’t understand what you show fans were thinking.

Although Jiang Ye gained fans.

But the Sunflower fans who had started this weren’t happy.

Even though the two light sticks looked completely different now, they felt that Jiang Ye’s video was implying that they were fandom police.

So, the two fandoms were like people who had nothing else to do, they scolded each other endlessly every day.

Cheng Zhen faced this situation for the first time, and she was worried for a long time.

The others had a good attitude, they just unplugged their internet and pretended not to see it, focusing on practicing the songs for their debut album.

Jiang Ye even comforted her, "Being scolded is a good thing, it means we’ve really become obscure if no one scolds us anymore."

Cheng Zhen: "..."

Their debut album was decided before their debut, with three songs in total.

Although one of them was the title track, they had choreographed stages for all three songs, just waiting for a chance to showcase them.

A few days later, the manager came to their door again, "Your debut performance is confirmed, you’ll be going on the show Idol Century War, just pay attention, it’s a battle, so you guys should practice the stage again for the next few days."

Jiang Ye knew this show.

On the surface, it was a competition between groups, but it was also a kind of music show.

The heat was decent, and the stages were always good, it was a good choice for their debut performance.

But there was one thing that wasn’t ideal.

The organizer was from a different platform, so the show’s favorite was the group that came from the Shining 101 girl group talent show, Shining Girls.

As soon as Lin Zui heard the name of the show, she said, "It’s a rival show."

The manager corrected her, "It’s called a friendly show."

Lin Zui: "..."

Jiang Ye was curious about something else, "I remember this show started a while ago."

This show was launched when Shining Girls had just debuted, and they had debuted almost a month later.

"Can we still participate?"

"You’re not participating in the show according to the regular process, you’re going to challenge them."

The manager said, "I got the schedule. Your first opponent is the girl group Sunflower."

All of 5tars: "?"

What a coincidence!
