"I never expected this series, Uncle played his chess well, achieving publicity for the drama and also tricking the admins big time."
"As part of the pranking team, I oddly feel honored!"
"As an old fan, I don’t ask for much, just remember to include me in such events next time, pranking is so freaking addictive!"
"I strongly demand you remember to include me!"
"I strongly demand you remember to include me +1!"
The admins said they wanted to die.
They had agreed to watch Uncle fail spectacularly, but you guys actually turned traitor, and did it so blatantly.
Damn addictive, from now on, don’t even think about getting any benefits in the group!
people cursing and swearing left the group chat.
At this very moment, another group of people are cursing as well, and these are the new media folks who watched the live version of "The Factory" at the Imperial Capital’s First Theater.
"Why are the articles we worked so hard on not as good as some detail freak?"
"The signature is called [Admin]? What the heck is that, never heard of it!"
"When did such a hero emerge in the circle? In just three days, the views have already broken 30 million, utterly outrageous—"
Damn, outsiders dare to steal their rice bowl?
And they couldn’t even outcompete them, who are they supposed to complain to?
"The content isn’t even that good, the popularity is all held up by hundreds of thousands of comments, why oh why!"
"I refuse to accept this, in all caps REFUSE!"
These new media folks are about to break down, they begged and pleaded to get into the theater for "The Factory" and watched it so intently they forgot to take notes, then after coming out they went full throttle praising Tang Shu and the theater.
Never expected that not a bit of popularity came their way, it all got snatched by some detail freak!
"Tsk tsk, my article [’The Theater Finally Enters Its Golden Age’] only got 20,000 views?"
That’s a far cry from 30 million!
"Bro, your title is weak, look at mine [’Shocking! Best Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free!"
But no matter which tactic, the new media folks losing to a newly registered ID named [Admin] is a fact.
Meanwhile, the admins who left the group chat and joined a new private group of 20 people, were feeling utterly frustrated but also noticed the rising view counts, stunned.
"At least, we got some gains, right?"
Didn’t get the money, but they harvested huge traffic.
QAQ, Mom, I want to be an internet celebrity too—
What’s it like to join your idol in bullying your own kind?
Tang Shu’s old fans said, it’s just awesome.
While these people relentlessly released all sorts of mockery in the group, Tang Shu, the person involved, was deeply engaged in his great acting career.
"The Tree at the Doorway" held a very low-key commencement ceremony, inviting just two media outlets to do some filming.
"This isn’t your style, Director."
Screenwriter Ning’s face might as well have had the words "what mischief are you holding back" written all over it.
