Chapter 135 Tang Rou is happy to be the owner of Dansha Bar

"LPL is about to explode!" The editor's voice was already trembling a little after witnessing Tang Rou, who had just made such a ruthless statement, being ruthlessly beaten by Fanhua.

Just when they said they wanted to find some dirty laundry on LPL, it was already right in front of them.

"Xiao Ruan, please take some time to work overtime to finish this report!" The editor-in-chief no longer cared about anything else and turned around and left.

"We're going to release a new issue tomorrow, so hurry up and get it ready so we can add it to yours overnight!"

There is nothing more fortunate than being able to pick up such a pie that falls from the sky when you need it most.

"Leave it to me, editor-in-chief. I will make sure that Happy and LPL will suffer heavy losses!"

Ruan Cheng felt that his chance to become famous had come.

A well-known journalist, when his peers were bowing to big capital and big traffic players, he stood up resolutely, unafraid of power, exposed the truth and upheld justice.

What a touching script!
He turned on his computer and entered some League of Legends player communities, and as expected, he saw carnival everywhere.

"This is our No.1 top laner. Do you have a top laner like this? He is really the best and the only one!"

"Han Yanrou's brain-dead fans are talking!"

"If you don't understand, then why is the No. 1 top laner a rookie who has never won any honors in his career?"

……

All I can say is that today is destined to be a carnival for countless black fans.

Tang Rou is like a horse face from another world, she doesn't have any major stains.

However, due to its own playing style and other issues, it attracted too much attention.

And too many crazy fans.

When the shy pulled, fans could still rely on his championship skin to talk tough.

But Tang Rou has nothing. Once her brilliant performance is interrupted, what awaits her is a plunge to the bottom.

Looking at this malicious public opinion environment, Ruan Chengxie smiled and retreated.

I don't know why, although he has no grudge against Tang Rou, he just doesn't like this girl.

This time, I have the opportunity to become famous and also have the chance to step hard on Tang Rou. Isn't that great?

He has to work overtime to finish the manuscript.

However, what he didn't know was that because he logged off too early, he didn't see a subsequent post:

"2023 LPL regular season Fanhua 2:0 Xingxin, unified scoring evaluation post."

……

Ruan Cheng worked overtime all night and finally completed his "great creation" in the early morning of the next day.

The full text is centered around Tang Rou's trash talk before the game, accusing Tang Rou of breaking her promise and being a shame to the LPL, plus more exaggerated content.

With two huge dark circles under his eyes and a smug smile on his face, he watched the editor-in-chief take his manuscript to print.

This magnificent article written after staying up late last night can be regarded as Ruan Cheng's masterpiece.

In his own opinion, this article is powerful, soul-stirring, to the point and goes straight to the essence.

This must be a devastating blow to Tang Rou's reputation!

Due to the lag of traditional paper media, it will take some time for this article to meet readers.

Ruan Cheng went to sleep contentedly. In his dream, he saw himself being praised by everyone as a hero who was not afraid of power...

……

night.

"No, why is no one discussing Tang Rou's affairs?" Ruan Cheng was a little dazed as he looked at the harmonious discussion area.

The discussion area is almost entirely filled with discussions about the day's events, as well as topics related to games and technology.

However, almost no one is discussing the incident involving Tang Rou yesterday.

"That's unscientific... Could it be that the damn Tencent Esports officials deleted and controlled the comments?"

Ruan Cheng was stunned, and then became indignant.

In his opinion, the discussion area turned into this state, it could only be Fujiko's big hand.

This is a serious deprivation of freedom of speech!

If it weren't for the fact that compared to Xingxin and Tang Rou, Tenghai and Tengjing were indeed small shrimps that could be crushed to death with just one finger, Ruan Cheng would have to write another great article.

But at this moment, he suddenly found such a post among the piles of posts:
"No, no one is discussing Han Yanrou's i9 project? Is my Goddess Rou so shameless?"

"Is this... not deleted completely?" Ruan Cheng perked up and clicked on it.

But I saw that this post only has the second floor.

"Mars, if you want to know more about Black Soft God, please go to the scoring post or the Dansha post next door. This post ends."

Scoring post? Cinnabar? What is that? Ruan Cheng was confused.

He searched in the bar and soon found the so-called scoring post.

Because it's right at the top of the list.

Wow, more than 50,000 floors in just one day.

When I clicked in, I saw that almost all the posts attacking Tang Rou yesterday had been integrated here.

“It seems that even a strong company like Tencent Esports doesn’t have the courage to suppress public opinion.” Ruan Cheng sneered, feeling more and more confident of winning.

Then I followed the link and found the "Cinnabar Bar", which made me even happier.

The pinned post is the opening thunderbolt:
"This forum was established to commemorate the highlight performance of Xingxin's top laner Han Yanrou, who vowed before the game that she would retire if she didn't kill a single opponent, and was beaten by the God Slayer Hai Ge Hai Wuliang in two games to the point of developing i9 engineering."

The bar was in chaos, with all kinds of emoticons, the i-series meme pictures, pictures of Tang Rou photoshopped into a statue and then blown to pieces by Captain Zhao Yang, and so on.

It was obvious that the attack on Tang Rou not only did not stop, but instead tended to intensify.

Since this is where Tang Rou's haters gather, my article should be discussed quite a lot, right?
Excited Ruan Cheng began to search in the Dansha forum, but after searching for a long time, he did not find a hot post discussing the anti-soft manifesto in the e-sports era.

After patiently browsing for a long time, I finally found a post among thousands of posts with no more than 30 replies:

"How do you comment on the E-Sports Times magazine writing a negative article for Roushen overnight?" Ruan Cheng quickly clicked on it and took a look; his face immediately turned dark.

"What is the e-sports era? Does anyone still read magazines these days?"

“It feels like it’s not as popular as self-media…”

What Ruan Cheng hates most in the past two years is that someone compares traditional print media and Internet self-media in front of him.

As an exceptionally stubborn magazine, Esports Times still does not have its own Xianyu official account, and its days are getting worse day by day.

As a result, Ruan Cheng's situation also went from bad to worse.

If he hadn't wanted to see everyone blackmail Tang Rou, he would have uncontrollably quit and reported her in one go.

Reading further, I finally saw someone starting to discuss the content of Ruan Cheng's article.

But, it doesn't seem very friendly.

"I've seen it, and it's rated as hot even for Akaashi."

"Not as aggressive as you, mate."

"They can't even criticize the point, and they're just making random accusations like they violate traditional virtues. I'm just blaming them for nothing."

Every time Ruan Cheng read a line, his face became darker and he wanted to bang the table more.

What he didn't know was that on the night when he was trying hard to hold back his "brilliant article", countless of Tang Rou's black fans gathered together and had already blackened Tang Rou from every possible angle.

Apart from the posts containing personal attacks and foul language which were decisively deleted by the system, the forum users had almost gone to great lengths to slander Tang Rou.

In comparison, traditional criticism like Ruan Cheng's has a stench of pedantry, so the cyberpunk forum friends naturally look down on it.

Ruan Cheng was unwilling to give up, and quickly typed on the keyboard:

"But don't you think what he said makes sense?"

"Tang Rou declared before the match that she would retire if she didn't kill the opponent alone, but she didn't fulfill her promise after losing. As a public figure, this has a very bad impact!"

"If she has any sense of shame, she should just retire!"

After posting it, he thought he could finally set the tone, but netizens scoffed at his persecution plan:
"There's a commotion upstairs. I've identified it."

"No, Roushen has retired. Who can help me fill the gap in the program effects that I'm missing?"

"One meal is enough, and the other is enough. We brothers can still tell the difference!"

All I can say is that Pei Yunteng's analysis of the audience's psychology is accurate.

During the Glory era, major clubs and officials, whose main platform was Weibo, would often choose to ignore public opinion storms surrounding players.

In addition, there is not much room for discussion, and the audience has no place to vent their anger, so they will naturally tend to be extreme and picky.

However, the emergence of the "Cinnabar Bar" and rating posts, coupled with the development of mobile Internet, are like a flood channel, giving netizens space to vent.

Tencent Esports deliberately does not suppress criticism that does not contain personal attacks or insults, just to allow fans to curse to their heart's content all at once.

After cursing, your mentality will be calm, and you may even be amused by looking at the i series of emoticons.

In this situation, when someone tries to push further, the fans will lose interest.

Ruan Cheng looked at the ridicule of him and his article pouring out on the screen, and his eyes went dark...

……

"Uncle Tang, believe me, this is the most effective way to handle the situation. Simply deleting and controlling comments will only arouse fans' rebellious psychology."

Pei Yunteng sat in his office chair, explaining to Tang Shusen on the other end of the phone with a helpless look on his face.

Tang Rou was in quite a stir this time, so Tang Shusen, who had always been paying attention to his daughter, naturally couldn't sit still.

Even though Pei Yunteng had explained and handled the situation, Tang Shusen was still not reassured.

There was no other way. Pei Yunteng could only explain little by little the methods of guiding public opinion in the new era to this elder who rose to prominence in the pre-mobile Internet era.

After much persuasion, Tang Shusen finally hung up the phone. Pei Yunteng glanced at Tang Rou, who was sitting on the side and distracted, and said, "Look how worried your father is."

"Hehe...thank you Brother Pei for explaining it to me." Tang Rou played dumb.

Although Pei Yunteng had already made a plan for similar things, he was still a little worried about Tang Rou's mental state.

Anyway, she has to stay in Shanghai during the competition, which is close to Tenghai headquarters, so she might as well be called over to take a look.

However, compared to the chaos in the outside world, Tang Rou herself was almost not affected at all, and looked calm and composed.

This made Pei Yunteng somewhat amused and helpless.

"Don't be too distracted. Although the criticism from netizens is harsh, it does make sense." Pei Yunteng knocked on Tang Rou's head in annoyance, and the latter cooperated by crouching down with her head in her hands.

"You are now at a stage where your fame is obviously greater than your strength and honor. If you cannot control your fans, one day you will face a backlash that is even more ferocious than today."

"Also, although your style of play is indeed very strong at this stage, in the future, once the systems and tactics of various teams are established, the targets you will face will definitely increase exponentially."

"Yesterday's flourishing flowers set an example for everyone."

Seeing Tang Rou nodding repeatedly, Pei Yunteng thought for a moment and suddenly said, "I'll give you a task."

"What?" Tang Rou raised her head.

"Dansha Bar, this is your hater gathering place, all the management accounts are in our hands now."

"Would you like to consider becoming a forum moderator or something?" Pei Yunteng grinned.

The reason why this replica anti-bar was able to be built in a short period of time was naturally due to Tenghai's behind-the-scenes support.

The moderator of Dansha Bar is Roushen Benshen?

I feel the show will be as effective as it can be.

"You don't have to worry about management. All you need to do is read more of the comments from other forum members, find some that you think are correct, and absorb them."

"……OK!"

　The third update has 3,500 words. I’m too lazy to make 4,000, so I’ll just treat it as 3.5 updates.

　　So do you have a monthly pass or something? Give me some.
