Someone online once joked: following celebrities these days was like buying stocks—you never knew when someone with promising growth would suddenly crash and burn. In the past two years, this phenomenon had only become more serious.
But Si You was different from all of them.
His reputation had been rock-bottom from the very beginning!
But had he done anything truly heinous? No. Otherwise, he would have been blacklisted long ago. He was just pretentious and stupid, the kind of person people disliked at first sight. As an artist, he had terrible audience appeal and even worse casual-public appeal, which basically meant saying goodbye to fame. This created a strange phenomenon—haters could no longer find anything worse to attack him over, while his fans mostly spent their time mocking themselves. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he used to be affected and annoying, we're not denying it. But he's changed now, right? Why don't you keep looking?
At the same time, fans of several celebrities who had crashed and burned gradually began to like Si You. They were all old hands in fandom circles, and they had once discussed it late at night: if we stan Si You, even if he crashes, how much further can he possibly fall?
Thus, the Game Consoles fandom gained an influx of mature forces. With them leading the way, new fans took far fewer detours.
And Si You had mentioned self-discipline more than once during livestreams. Strangely enough, when he spoke with a faint smile and complete seriousness, his fans listened seriously too. The kind of magnetic field an idol gave off could absolutely influence their fans.
So the Game Consoles were currently like this: peaceful when still, Battle Jets when in motion. Whenever they called themselves "Battle Jets," it basically meant they were preparing to bomb someone.
