Taking Liu Yifei back to Northeast China for the Chinese New Year has sent the entire internet into

Cai Kun received a unanimous A grade in his first stage performance, and the number of views for "Just Because You're Too Beautiful" skyrocketed after its release.

With Fang Yu personally overseeing the entire stage production, Xingyao Entertainment made a name for itself in the idol industry almost overnight.

Fang Yu alone is difficult enough to deal with.

Now, he can even get a trainee with little fame trending on social media.

It's perfectly normal for leading brands to be uneasy.

"However, they are not the real problem."

Old Li sighed and put the tablet on the table.

"This fire is now beyond the control of those few marketing companies."

"Initially, there were indeed people deliberately stirring up trouble."

"But now, most ordinary netizens just think it's fun and participate on their own."

The song is spreading.

Parody videos are also circulating.

Even those who have never watched "Idol New Generation" can now casually say "You're so beautiful".

The other party is only responsible for starting the fire.

Netizens rushed up with gasoline cans and added two bundles of firewood.

"We've also tried traditional public relations methods."

Old Li continued:

"Contact the platform to handle obviously malicious content, suppress trending topics, and send lawyer's letters to several marketing accounts that started the controversy."

Mr. Zhang looked up at him.

"And the result?"

Old Li twitched the corner of his mouth.

"The more you press, the more it explodes."

"The faster we handle it, the stronger the backlash from netizens will be."

"Many people now feel that it's capital that's covering up the truth, that they can't even afford to make a simple misheard joke."

"This meme has long since spread beyond the music industry."

"The gaming community, the sports community, the tech community, and even food bloggers are starting to get involved."

No one answered in the office.

Old Li glanced down at the tablet.

Within minutes, the number of views for the related topic surged again.

He paused for a moment, then finally gave his conclusion:

"The 'Chicken You're So Beautiful' meme..."

"It has completely gone viral."

……

at the same time.

Hangzhou, the recording base of "Idol New Generation".

In the trainees' dormitory, Cai Kun's teammates sat on their beds, cautiously scrolling through their phones.

No one dared to breathe loudly.

They would occasionally exchange glances, their eyes filled with deep sympathy.

The only sound in the dormitory came from the bed by the window.

Cai Kun wrapped himself in the quilt from head to toe, leaving only a bulging, bulky bundle.

From under the covers, a deep-seated resentment could be heard emanating from within.

"chicken……"

"Why a chicken...?"

"I clearly sang 'Only Because!' 'Only Because!'"

"Who in their right mind would mishear those two words as 'chicken'?!"

"Didn't Brother Yu repeatedly tell me to pronounce every single word clearly?"

"I practiced!"

"I practice my pronunciation in front of the mirror every day until my voice is almost split open, but how come it sounds like a chicken as soon as I get on stage..."

Several teammates felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing this.

It’s over.

This child must have been driven to mental instability and had his spiritual heart shattered by the overwhelming number of bizarre and absurd videos online.

A perfectly good A-level debut stage was turned into a comedy show for the whole internet. Who can stand that?

Just then, the noise under the blanket suddenly stopped.

The teammates exchanged glances, a bad feeling creeping into their minds at the same time.

Holy crap, did this guy really do something stupid and suffocate himself in bed?!

"Kun...Brother Kun?"

One of the braver teammates moved forward a little and called out in a trembling voice:

"Don't scare me, bro. Can we just stop watching this stuff online? If it really doesn't work, we can just quit the competition..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

A hand suddenly reached out from the edge of the blanket!

Swish!

Cai Kun threw off the covers and sat up straight!

His meticulously styled middle-parted hair was now a complete mess, and his eyes were bloodshot from staying up all night scrolling through his phone.

Surprisingly, there was no sign of him breaking down, despairing, or wanting to withdraw from the competition on his face.

Instead, he had a strange expression of extreme shock, as if he had been struck by lightning from the heavens and instantly comprehended the great Dao of heaven and earth!

His teammates were so frightened by his zombie-like reaction that they all shrank back.

"Holy crap! Kun-ge, calm down!"

Cai Kun had no time to pay them any attention.

He was breathing rapidly, staring intently at the phone screen in his hand.

On the screen is Fang Yu's WeChat profile picture.

Chicken Bro...

Chicken Bro!

A sudden "boom" went through Cai Kun's mind, as if a bolt of lightning had cleaved through the fog!

Those bizarre details that I couldn't understand before suddenly became clear at this moment, as if they were connected by a single thread!

He remembers it perfectly clearly.

From the moment they first met, Fang Yu would always pat him on the shoulder with a smile and call him "Brother Chicken" repeatedly.

He was puzzled at the time.

Although the nicknames Yu Ge gave to others weren't exactly serious, at least you could tell there was some reason behind them.

Why do I have to call myself "Chicken Bro" when it's my turn?

But looking back now... at this critical juncture when the whole internet is flooded with "You're so beautiful, chicken".

How could it be a coincidence that he blurted out "Chicken Bro" so casually from the very beginning?!

Is there a possibility...

Did Brother Yu foresee today's situation the very night he tailored this song for him, or even from the very first moment he met Cai Kun?

hiss--

Cai Kun gasped, goosebumps rising all over his body.

Thinking hard!

Just how far can Brother Yu's eyes see?!

Cai Kun didn't even dare to think any further; he felt as if he had inadvertently glimpsed some incredible secret.

Just then.

hum!

The phone I was holding suddenly vibrated.

A new WeChat message popped up at the top of the screen.

From: Brother Yu.

There were no lengthy public relations statements to appease the public, and no anxious or flustered inquiries about countermeasures.

The content consists of only two extremely plain words, yet they seem to contain immense power:

"Stay calm."
