"The theme of this episode is actually very simple: a showdown between top traffic stars and true talent."
If He Jiu had said that on any other station, they definitely wouldn't have dared let it pass. Calling someone a top traffic star was basically implying that they had no real talent.
If he had said that on Mango TV, the station director would absolutely have given him an earful.
But here, He Jiu said it quite casually. That was also because Liang Tian had told him to put it that way.
The fan-circle followers watching the show were naturally dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do. They could only make up their minds to make everyone's jaws drop during the tipping segment!
"All right, next, let's welcome today's first new friend, Wu Fan!"
Some of the audience members at the venue excitedly waved their hands and shouted Wu Fan's name. There were even quite a few fans among the live audience.
The reason top traffic stars were called top traffic stars was that they truly stood head and shoulders above everyone else in terms of fan numbers.
No matter what kind of celebrity they were, there was always a clear divide.
Take Lin Sansui and King Ren, for example. When they were young, their popularity had been no lower than Wu Fan and the others' was now. In fact, it had been even higher.
King Ren in particular had dominated all of China twenty years ago.
It was just a pity that the internet had been far less developed back then. There had been no endless hype or publicity, let alone products designed to attract and retain fans.
How could that compare with today? A traffic star now had a team to package, hype, and promote them, as well
