Chapter 177: Jiang Sui, You're Awesome
Although Jiang Sui had skyrocketed to fame through a parenting variety show, no one had ever heard of her playing video games.
In today's entertainment industry, just to attract fans, let alone being good at gaming, celebrities would practically market themselves to the entire world over the slightest gaming session.
Jiang Sui had never released such promotional articles. Coupled with rumors that she didn't play games at all, her joining instantly sparked skepticism from many esports fans.
[In esports, being bad is the original sin. The production team really has no shame left just for traffic.]
[Fu*king hilarious. One Xu Manman was enough, and now they add Jiang Sui. They might as well rename the show "The Noobs' Glory All-Star Match".]
[Can they change someone else? If they can't get someone like Bai Xixue, at least get someone who actually knows how to play! Can they please swap out Xu Manman and Jiang Sui? Useless production team acting heartless, I'm begging you not to ruin my team.]
[I heard Jiang Sui got assigned to the "Against the Wind" team. Ahhhhh, no way!!! I'm crying my eyes out! I don't want the players I stan to carry noobs!!]
Esports fans and team fans were extremely agitated, angrily leaving abusive comments under the official blog.
The fans of Bai Xixue, who had long harbored grievances, also began their mockery.
[Can certain people stop being such shameless clout-chasers? Always latching onto our Baobao to vampirize her attention. Do you think our Xuexue likes doing charity work?]
[Does a certain female celebrity surnamed Jiang have no shame at all? Why must you try to associate yourself with Sister Xue over everything?]
[Waiting to see Baobao thoroughly smash the face of a certain pretentious poser (smile).]
Certain neutral onlookers and Jiang Sui's combat fans:
[To be completely fair, can Jiang Sui go hone her acting skills? If she has time for variety shows, why doesn't she have time to take advanced acting classes? With a face that pretty, can she stop being just a vase!]
[So what if she's a vase? As long as this pretty face appears anywhere, I love it. Haha, I just love looking at beauties, and good looks are part of one's professional business too!]
[Aren't Bai Xixue's fans tired of flipping back and forth like jumping jacks every day? Do you all feel like you're suddenly invincible again? Constantly clinging to my Mommy.]
[Hahahaha, my current source of entertainment is watching Bai Xixue's fans get slapped in the face. I mean, it's just so sickening to see people lie flat, relying on capital and privilege to snatch resources.]
[Do the fans of a certain little darling think they've risen again? Running out to bite people this early, are you in such a rush to celebrate your own seventh day after death?]
[I'm not generalizing, I just equally despise every single fan of a certain mosquito—you guys truly wasted an entire night of your parents' time.]
……
In a private WeChat group, Xu Manman tagged Jiang Sui.
Xu Manman: "@Jiang Sui, Wuuuuuu we both got cursed out together, does this count as sharing weal and woe (crying.jpg), but I really don't know how to play games..."
Upon seeing this, Jiang Sui replied: "I'll carry you to victory."
Xu Manman: "???"
Li Lan suddenly popped up: "I don't understand games, but I understand that Sister Jiang Sui is awesome."
Xu Manman: "..." Did these two have a private little group behind her back and isolate her?
Just as Jiang Sui finished replying to Xu Manman, she saw a message sent by Qin Ze.
Qin Ze: "Does Sister like surprises? If you like them, there will be one."
Jiang Sui was about to reply with a "dislike".
Before she could send it, Qin Ze sent another message: "Even if you don't like it, there will still be one (cat hee-hee.jpg)."
Jiang Sui: "Remember to stay a bit further away from me during the show."
Qin Ze: "!!!"
Jiang Sui: "Fool."
If she couldn't figure it out after that, she would have to be an idiot.
Among the celebrities announced on the internet as joining "Heroic Glory", only a portion had been revealed so far.
To build anticipation, the rest of the lineup was kept unannounced to serve as a gimmick for the live-recorded broadcast day.
However, paper walls couldn't contain fire in the entertainment industry.
Most people had already caught wind of it. Although she hadn't paid attention, it would be a wonder if she couldn't guess after Qin Ze dropped those words.
Qin Ze: "~~~Awooo"
Jiang Sui: "???"
