Xiaoying went to college this year, otherwise Yuan Yuanyuan would have liked to know what she looks like now. Feimao is even more generous than Xiaoying back then. With a box of books, Yuan Yuanyuan felt that this was definitely true love.
She and Fat Cat sat on the floor unpacking the package. Fat Cat told Yuan Yuanyuan to tear off the last page and tear it evenly, and give it to him when the time comes, so as not to damage his sacred ticket, as he wanted to write it himself. Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the original Fat Cat, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and mocked him, saying that he might as well turn back into a cat and scratch it with his own claws, because the ones he scratched with his claws looked better than the ones he cut with a paper cutter.
"Do you know who the candidate is?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.
"Let me see..." Fat Cat used his hand to rummage through the list on one side, "There are about these few people... Actually, the characters that won last year should have been eliminated this year, but considering that Monster Chronicle was still a work by newcomers last year, we still let these characters participate this year."
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the list of names guessed by netizens. On it were rows of popular characters from Monster Records. She read from the beginning to the end. At the front were the woman in red and the four groups, characters whose divinity was already established, and at the back were rising stars like Yuan Yingli.
As she looked, Yuan Yuanyuan saw Yuan, who was neither too high nor too low, in the middle, not very eye-catching. Yuan Yuanyuan was quite satisfied with him. But she suddenly realized a problem.
—Yuan Yuanyuan counted from the top to the bottom: the woman in red, Yuan, the woman in red in the tavern… Ran Niang has been merged with Yuan because her identity was revealed, but these three are still her. What should I say now
Yuan Yuanyuan quickly opened the website and looked again, trying to find out if he had said anything this year. Last year, he seemed to have said that he would kill people based on the voting results. What about this year
… Well, this guy is still like this.
Yuan Yuanyuan patted the fat cat next to him and asked him to look at the message on his phone. The fat cat took a look, sneered, and the sound of tearing the book became louder.
He was probably trying to show that he was really rich and that he was worth hundreds of people... Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the interview with Ji Qiu displayed on the website, and the time was seventeen minutes ago.
Yuan Yuanyuan glanced at the “Summary” and knew what Ji Qiu had said again... It was still the same thing as last year, but this year he spoke more confidently, maybe because his status had become bigger
Ji Qiu still had the same theory—characters that readers don’t like have no need to exist. Yuan Yuanyuan flipped through the comments and unexpectedly saw a lot of comments related to Yuan... It was really unexpected.
Some people say that Yuan was killed because readers didn't like him. There is a long paragraph below him, all plus one plus two plus ID number and so on.
During the first selection, Yuan Yuanyuan vaguely remembered that she seemed to rely on her looks to save her life... because her character was not so awesome at the time, so she could only rely on her character.
After the selection was over, Yuan's popularity began to plummet... At that time, Yuan Yuanyuan really didn't have time to think about what would happen if there was another selection, mainly because she almost forgot about it when she got busy.
Now it seems that the timing is just right. There was a selection when Yuan could sell his face before, and there is another selection when Yuan can sell his personality now. Neither side is delayed. If it happened to be in the middle, Yuan Yuanyuan would probably have died.
Yuan Yuanyuan didn't have any feelings about this. She was only worried about one thing now - how did Ji Qiu make the decision? If one of these three characters got into trouble, would she die? Or as long as one of these three characters was safe, she could survive successfully
There is no need to worry too much about Yuan and the woman in red... but the character of Hongxiu has not appeared for a long time, and I am always worried that I can't compete with her popularity. It seems that if there is a chance, I have to let Hongxiu appear in the comics recently.
While Yuan Yuanyuan was seriously thinking about the popularity here, magazines outside were selling very fast. Mengman experienced the feeling of selling out of books for the first time in her life. She printed an extra batch temporarily, but they were all sold out again and there was no stock at all.
There are a lot of pirated products rampant on the Internet... There's nothing you can do about it, there are always a few fools who get fooled. Many readers bought the magazines and found that there was no voting page at the back, so they immediately turned around and started arguing with the stores... Anyway, this week was quite lively for everyone.
Gao Ling has been eating melon seeds and watching the quarrels on the Internet recently. She has never been so happy as she is now. Anyway, now she knows that Yuan will not be in trouble, so she has nothing to worry about.
But apart from people like her, other readers are as enthusiastic as chicken blood, such as Xiaoxi's group... Gao Ling looked at the webpage and shook his head, "Oh my god, widow... Can anyone tell me why the widow attribute is so powerful when it comes out?"
In the past, the woman in red has always been called Fanning's principal wife... She is generous and beautiful, and her fighting power is quite strong. Although her attitude towards the various "concubines" is still unknown, just from these conditions, she is already the principal wife with the naked eye.
According to the otakus, the woman in red looks like the queen, and no one except her can control the entire harem. Then the plot of the new issue came out, and instantly slapped everyone in the face - the widow...
When Gao Ling saw this, he thought, these otakus will definitely go crazy, and everything will be gone with the wind...
However, Gao Ling was actually a little excited. What was going on
Gao Ling's own attitude was already enough to fascinate her, but the attitudes of the geeks on the Internet made her even more intoxicated. Gao Ling thought that the potential stock of the red-dressed woman was over, but... there was a trend of rising higher and higher
Then Gao Ling silently expressed that he didn't understand straight men in the otaku fan fiction all over the Internet... What a bunch of weird guys.
It seems that these otaku fans are just like some of the Naruto fans on Dianjia. They all start to collect harems from the beginning, regardless of whether they are other people's girlfriends or wives. They will collect all of them, and even if they are not sure whether they are girls but are pretty, they will be collected... The same is true for the fans of Youki. Every work has a list of qualified fans that must be collected, and the woman in red is on this list.
Gao Ling read it once... Oh my god, this widow attribute seems to have aroused the interest of some otakus. They seem to particularly like to play the kind of drama where the widow is moved and turns to her arms. If you think about it this way, if the gender is reversed, it will be a drama where a cold male god forgets his white moonlight and turns to her arms... It seems that it is not impossible to understand.
Not understanding what excites these otakus is just like how Gao Ling can't figure out his own excitement.
But Gao Ling knew very well that this was just the fantasy of the otakus. Although they kept saying on the Internet, "It would be nice if I could marry the woman in red!", if the woman in red really got married, she would no longer be a widow, and the attribute that attracted the otakus would naturally disappear.
Really speaking, what is so attractive about a widow... Could it be that kind of loyalty, aloofness, and abstinence? Gao Ling thought seriously for three seconds while holding her teacup. Suddenly, she felt that she was just like a lunatic thinking about this question. The person in red is Yuan! Why did she have to think about this kind of question
Xiaoxi bought ten books at the bookstall below. She felt a little sorry for the money she spent, so she could go out for a good meal. A week later, Xiaoxi looked at the various purchase prices on the second-hand trading website and silently realized that if she finished selling the books she had, she would probably be able to improve her life a little bit...
In the end, she still didn't fulfill this wish. She filled in Yuan's name on the ten cards and sent them out.
In fact, Xiaoxi is not the kind of person who buys things so crazily. This may be the first time she has done something irrational like chasing stars and spending money irrationally.
Xiaoxi felt that what stimulated her might be Ji Qiu's words, "People who readers don't like will die in the comics."
… Because of this sentence, Xiaoxi bought ten books as if stimulated, and then sat in front of the computer early, pressing F5 frantically to see what the result would be.
The candidates for the preliminary round will be announced at about twelve o'clock in the morning. Xiaoxi kept pressing F5 frantically, and at that moment of twelve o'clock, the first batch refreshed into the official website.
She glanced at Yuan's first opponent and found that she was quite familiar with this person. However, in terms of popularity, he was not too scary. He was the kind of character that Yuan could beat easily.
It seems that the official also knows that Yuan is too popular, so they first bring a small shrimp over and don't arrange other popular options together. Xiaoxi glanced at the comments below. Except for a few fans of the other party who complained about unfairness, other Yuan fans were cheering.
The preliminary round should be a sure thing.
Xiaoxi felt relieved, so she refreshed the page again. She was shocked by the sudden surge in votes.
Wait, this number, ones, tens, hundreds, thousands...
Xiaoxi's eyes are a little straight.
This, it’s only been a few minutes since the start... The official has actually counted tens of thousands of votes
A small preliminary competition would not get much attention unless something eye-catching happened in the preliminary competition. This is the case now. Suddenly everyone is attracted.
"Oh my god, are these people crazy?"
"How many copies of the last Dream Manga were sold... How many people haven't subscribed yet?"
"I'm not sure, but I've never seen anything like this before... Is this making history?"
Everyone was pressing F5. It was clearly just an ordinary preliminary round, but at this time, because of the increase in votes for a certain character, it became the focus.
Most of the fans of the opposite character were quiet at first, but now they are all complaining, "What's the big deal? Our little car is just a minor supporting role, why make such a big fuss?"
Yuan Yuanyuan didn't know all this. After helping Fat Cat fill out dozens of forms, she was so tired that she fell asleep.
