Daisy woke up in a daze to find her phone screen still lit up. The Weibo interface flickered, and the number of comments on her last post was still climbing.
She opened the comments, hoping to find a couple of supportive messages amidst the vast sea of complaints, but until she reached the last one she had read before, she couldnt find a single positive reply.
— Oh my god, Ive got goosebumps all over! How can there be such a Mary Sue web drama? It feels like my worldview is being challenged!
— What on earth is this! This show is a waste of my time! Why would such a beautiful girl like you take on such a brainless show?
— Hahaha, dont leave after school for those who said they lasted until the sixth episode; Im with you. But Im worse than you; I couldnt make it past the fourth episode. The female lead is so loved by everyone and everything, from Prince D of Country D, nobles of Country B, to our countrys richest man, all falling in love with her... Yes, and this is just the fourth episode; there are so many points to mock that 140 characters are not enough to express them all.
— Am I the only one who thinks the male leads are ugly? Yet the extras act as if they are seeing a super handsome guy; its really unconvincing!
— Mary Sue sightseeing group stops by here.
— Its quite distressing to see what our country produces day in and day out. Look at the high-quality shows from our neighboring country, and youll know why weve been culturally imported over the years. Our domestic shows and their well-made production teams have no comparison! I suggest everyone watch the idol dramas from our neighboring country in the past two years; they are explosively good!
The last comment had many likes, and the replies below were numerous, with some agreeing and others disagreeing, saying that the commentators flattery of the neighboring country was ugly, and the argument had not subsided after more than thirty floors.
Daisy was reading with great interest when her phone suddenly rang, abruptly interrupting her. It was her agent, Guinevere ().
"Daisy, have you seen Weibo?"
Daisy minimized the phone interface and continued to click on Weibo, "Yeah, I saw it."
Guineveres voice was a bit tense: "Listen to me, Daisy, dont look at anything now, dont say anything, just act as if you havent seen it, dont post on Weibo anymore, and dont reply to netizens."
Not hearing Daisys voice for a while, Guinevere became more nervous and raised her voice.
"Daisy, did you hear me! Dont be impulsive!"
Wasnt she listening quietly? What impulsiveness?
"Yep, Im listening. Being mocked is good; its better than no buzz at all."
Guinevere let out a sigh of relief on the other end: "Yes, yes, thats the right attitude. Even haters are fans. Ill apply for PR from the company later and try to come up with a plan as soon as possible."
After a few minutes of nagging, she hung up the phone.
Daisy hung up the phone helplessly. Guinevere had a good temper and was a kind person, but she was just too indecisive. She was timid and insisted on trembling in front of her, and there was no way around it.
Daisy opened the trending topics, and sure enough, two of the top twenty were about the show she starred in.
Trending twelfth: Mary Sue God Drama.
Trending nineteenth: The Men of the School Flower and Stewardess.
The name of the show she starred in was "The Men of the School Flower and Stewardess," and she basically agreed with the netizens mockery; this show was the type that had to be mocked.
Not mocking is not being Chinese.
Actually, when she first got the script, she was internally rejecting it.
When she read the nauseating lines in the script, she was internally rejecting it.
As a face control freak, acting with several male leads and supporting actors who were not up to her standards, she was internally rejecting it.
But there was no way; for a 108-line minor star like her, getting the lead role in such a script was already something others could only dream of, how could she possibly refuse!
So, she happily accepted it.
You know, when she and Guinevere found out she was chosen as the female lead, they were so happy that they almost flew up, holding hands and spinning around the room several times before they could barely calm down.
After the show was filmed and aired on the Love Drama platform, it was a total of 18 episodes, initially with less than 1000 views. The barrage maintained a record of 0 for two months across the entire network.
It wasnt until a week ago that a sarcastic film reviewer picked it up and mocked it.
There is no bottom line for mocking: Recently, I was bored and clicked on the Love Drama app, and accidentally clicked on a web drama whose name I hadnt heard of, and none of the actors were known to me. Then, I started my journey of destroying my worldview.
Below the Weibo post was a video.
At the beginning of the video, it said: 3 minutes to show you the most Mary Sue disgusting drama in history.
At first, this video didnt have many views, but when netizens who watched the video found that the blogger didnt exaggerate at all, they left messages in shock—Wow!
Some netizens summarized that in eighteen episodes, more than 20 men appeared who loved the female lead to death, at an average rate of 1.5 per episode.
So!
This conclusion shocked the Weibo community!
Damn it, Im still a single dog now, and you even have someone falling in love with you when you take a dump, arent you asking for a scolding!
And so, the Weibo of the female lead, Daisy, was besieged.
Daisy watched the commotion for a while, and the netizens vocabulary seemed to have regressed a lot now, just a few words of complaint over and over, occasionally mixed with some advertisements, and she could basically recite them without looking now.
After closing Weibo, Daisy was about to wash up and sleep, preparing to welcome her slightly red life from tomorrow, when she suddenly heard a clear voice in her mind.
"Ding!"
"Reading... "
"Host binding successful!"
"What the hell!"
"Mary Sue Live Streaming System officially opens."
What the heck!
"Hello, host, welcome to the Almond Live Streaming System. You are now in the Mary Sue Live Channel. I am number 820, and I will serve you for a long time in the future."
Daisy was a bit confused and asked subconsciously, "Who are you?"
"My number is 820, and I am your butler on Almond Live. Let me introduce the current situation to you. The year we are in now is 3233, which means we come from a thousand years later, but our two worlds are two different parallel worlds with no cause and effect relationship. Almond Live is the largest and strongest live streaming platform on our planet. Our platform has 200,000 hosts from different times, covering..."
"Stop." Daisy interrupted his long speech, "Can you save the awesomeness of your platform for another time? The focus now should be on letting me understand my situation, or what you want me to do, right?"
820s tone was very appreciative: "Good, encountering such an incredible thing, you can stay calm and quickly find the key. This is also one of the reasons why our platform chose you."
Daisy: ... Quite good at giving people high hats.
"In short, we have a VIP viewer who accidentally saw your performance and was very interested. She thinks you have the potential to live stream a Mary Sue life, so she applied to the platform. After the platforms investigation, your conditions are very suitable for our host selection standards, so we have bound the live streaming system for you."
Daisy raised her eyebrows: "But did you ask for my opinion?"
Although she couldnt see 820s appearance, Daisy somehow felt that he was pulling a confident smile at the moment: "The compensation we offer is quite generous, and no one would refuse such a good thing."
"What compensation? Is it RMB?"
Daisy felt 820 shaking his head again and said with a smirk: "Thats much more practical than RM
