Love Guide for Childhood Sweethearts

Chapter 325 No Need for Fans

"Not really. The Asian Games are at the end of the year, and they finished recording before the New Year." Lin Jingzhe said with a smile.

"The Asian Games are being held in our own home!" Lin Xingzhi thought, "No need to go abroad."

"Yes! It's great for me!" Lin Jingzhe said with a smile in his peach blossom eyes.

"So you don't like foreign countries?" Lin Xingzhi chuckled.

"I can't get used to the food, and I'm not satisfied with the accommodation. The comfort level can't compare to ours. We really make our guests feel at home, but they seem to be making money." Lin Jingzhe said with a look of disgust.

"Capital! Not surprising," Lin Xingzhi snorted. "It seems we're the only ones who value hospitality." He smiled and added, "It's good to be home. I can cheer you up there."

"Hehe..." Lin Jingzhe smiled when he heard that.

"Now you are not afraid of us being there to cheer you on in person, right?" Lin Xingzhi said with a smile in his starry eyes.

"I'm not afraid anymore." Lin Jingzhe said with a smile in his peach blossom eyes.

"Are you still afraid of the camera? The commercial was shot beautifully, and you look visibly more relaxed." Lin Xingzhi asked again with concern.

"The first time is new, the second time is familiar. I won't be afraid anymore." Lin Jingzhe said with gentle eyes.

"Don't be afraid anymore. Why don't you film a variety show? I see your roommates are all filming variety shows." Lin Xingzhi asked out of pure curiosity.

"Shooting variety shows takes a long time, and I can't stand those Westernized kneeling people. There are the most of them in the entertainment industry." Lin Jingzhe said with a look of disgust.

"Then I won't go." Lin Xingzhi sat up straight and said, "You'll be cyberbullied for saying that."

"I'm not afraid, I just don't want to bother with them and waste my energy." Lin Jingzhe said with deep eyes, "When I retire and have time, I can fight them online until the end of time."

"Haha..." Lin Xingzhi shook his head and laughed, "Skinning them is all about profit in the end."

"Nothing's worth doing. Besides those foolishly being led astray, some are just looking to Europe and the US for spiritual comfort." Lin Jingzhe sighed softly, "Nine years of compulsory education were truly wasted. Don't you realize how dark capitalism can be?"

"That's because they haven't experienced capitalism firsthand. They only memorized politics to pass exams. If you've experienced it, you'll know how good our mother is." Lin Xingzhi snorted softly, "Don't turn back until you hit the wall."

"Even if they hit the wall, they might not turn back." Lin Jingzhe rolled his eyes in annoyance. "They are still holding on, which is good for the Americans."

"Good advice won't persuade a damned ghost," Lin Xingzhi said helplessly, changing the subject, "Does Nannan have any social media accounts?"

"No! You have to apply for this!" Lin Jingzhe blinked his amber pupils and said.

"Do I need to apply for this? If I have a mobile phone number, I can apply online." Lin Xingzhi said simply and easily.

"I'm talking about applying to the team." Lin Jingzhe smiled and said with the corners of his lips raised.

"Do I need to apply for this?" Lin Xingzhi said in surprise.

"Why not? What if I say the wrong thing? The internet spreads information so quickly, you've seen that before." Lin Jingzhe chuckled. "What content should I post? Is it out of line? That's all something to consider." He smiled and added, "I can't just do whatever I want like people online." He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Have you ever seen an official government website? Do civil servants dare to use their real names? They're all anonymous."

"Forget it then." Lin Xingzhi said with a glint in his eyes, "You are anonymous, and you don't spend much time online."

"It's the golden period of my career, and I really don't have the energy to surf the Internet." Lin Jingzhe said with his clear eyes turning.

Lin Xingzhi smiled and said, "If you don't want to go online, then don't go online! The Internet is a mess."

"With that expert and the beast around, the internet can never be peaceful," Lin Jingzhe said sarcastically. "Freedom of speech."

"Wait a minute, if you log into the social platform with your real name, you can attract fans just like an actor!" Lin Xingzhi said with his eyes lighting up.

Lin Jingzhe shook his head and laughed, "What do I need fans for? To help boost sales for my endorsement! Fans' money isn't just from the wind; it's all their parents' hard-earned money. It's just that when buying similar products, it's okay if they can buy the ones I endorse. It's okay if they don't hate me as a person."

"How could it be annoying?" Lin Xingzhi said immediately after hearing this.

"Why not? I'm not RMB, loved by everyone." Lin Jingzhe chuckled and shook his head.

Lin Jingzhe's eyes were cold and profound as he spoke, "In competitive sports, results are everything. If results are poor, commercial value plummets." He then added, "There are also anti-fans in fan circles. It's not good to have anti-fan wars within fan circles."

"You also know about black fans?" Lin Xingzhi said in surprise.

"Qina knows, right? She loves watching Korean dramas and knows a lot about Korean entertainment," Lin Jingzhe said gently. "She knows a little bit about fandom. Korean entertainment has made it so much fun. In the eyes of celebrities, fans are just leeks. It's really speechless that the maid doesn't feel sorry for herself, but instead feels sorry for the highly paid celebrities."

"That's up to you." Lin Xingzhi smiled upon hearing this. "But if sports are to be industrialized and have higher commercial value, maybe you can cultivate your own fans, just like you cultivate fans." He smiled and added, "Maybe the leaders will ask you to open social media accounts."

"We'll talk about it then," Lin Jingzhe said with a deep gaze. "I still say the same thing: in competitive sports, performance is everything. No matter how many fans you have, it's impossible to improve performance. Of course, there may be commercial value in the short term, and you can profit from it. But fans are ruthless. They watch athletes fight hard on the field, not just hang out on social media."

"The audience is the majority. Fans are not enough compared to the general public." Lin Xingzhi said with his eyes shining.

"So! I'm not a star, I don't need fans." Lin Jingzhe said with a gentle look in his eyes, "As long as the performance is stable, there will be no shortage of endorsements. How do some endorsements even need to be explained?" After thinking for a moment, he said, "Prestige!"

"Haha..." Lin Xingzhi chuckled and shook his head, "It's like the two major international sports brands. Their spokespeople are famous basketball stars."

"Right!" Lin Jingzhe smiled upon hearing this and said, "But businessmen are always looking for profits. If performance declines, they will hire a star with a lot of fans! Or ask one of our people to be the spokesperson."

"That's because we have the world's largest market," Lin Xingzhi snorted. "Foreign brands are very arrogant!"

"Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, but arrogance is! They will pay the price for this." Lin Jingzhe said calmly, "I'll wait!"

"Nannan, you can't put all your eggs in one basket. Besides new energy, perhaps e-commerce can also generate revenue." Lin Xingzhi said with a deep gaze, "The country has invested heavily in infrastructure and communications, and smartphones allow people to access the internet anytime, anywhere." He blinked his starry eyes and said, "You know what I mean, right?"
