Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Liu Man and the others did not expect that Tao Zhiyao, who seemed to be in an argument with her brother and was in a bad mood, was resurrected with full HP on the next day. At 8 a.m, she sent messages in “The Sisters” group chat and woke everyone up.

“Hahahahahahaha, I have a cat now!”

She then sent dozens of pictures in a row featuring the cat from all different perspectives.

This was a blue cat that seemed to be just two to three months old. Because he was still too young, his hair was sparse. He had a pair of round eyes similar to Daylight and Moonlight’s eyes, but his pair of eyes was in a different color. Daylight and Moonlight had green eyes, and his eyes were yellowish-brown. They were all British Shorthair and had similar-looking five sense organs, but they had different hair colors.

“Wow (heart-eyes), the kitten is so cute!” — Li Xiaoru

“Your family permits you to have a cat?” — Liu Man

“Mhm. My brother probably gave it to me.”

There was nothing written on the box, and Tao Zhiyao came downstairs with the kitten in her arms. Tao Zhiwei was used to waking up early in the morning and had already left the house to head to the company. The butler said he didn’t know where the box came from either.

There were so few of them in her house. The only one who dared to quietly put something in front of her bedroom’s entrance would be her bro.

This apology was very sincere. She accepted it!

“I didn’t expect your brother to have a gentle side even if he looks so strict.” — Jiang Chengfeng

“Of course. In this world, only your blood-related family treats you the best!” — Sun Weiwei

When Sun Weiwei sent this message, she was intentionally testing Liu Man.

And she reached her goal. When Liu Man recalled Liu Chengyu’s disliking for her, she didn’t want to send anything in the group chat anymore. She actually really admired Tao Zhiyao for having a brother that loved her so much.

“Is the kitten male or female?” — Li Xiaoru

“Male.” — Tao Zhiyao

“What’s his name?” — Li Xiaoru

Tao Zhiyao had only started considering this question when Li Xiaoru mentioned his name.

“I’m Peach, so he’s Pear.”

“Eh, that’s a great name. Hello, Pear.” — Jiang Chengfeng

“Why do I feel like it’s a eunuch’s name.” — Miao Xiaomei

“Pear is definitely going to go through a sterilization operation in the future. He’s a to-be eunuch cat.” — Tao Zhiyao

After introducing everyone to her adored pet, Tao Zhiyao started officially working. She sent her video files from yesterday to both Jiang Chengfeng and Sun Weiwei for the later editing stage.

Because it was now summer break, Jiang Chengfeng and Sun Weiwei were able to put all their energy into the project. Therefore, in the late afternoon that day, they finished their respective tasks.

Sun Weiwei was responsible for uploading the final version of the video onto Tik Tok.

Because “The Sisters” was an account they’ve only recently signed up for on Tik Tok, they only had 8 fans, which were the six of them in the team, Yu Zhan, and Ye Ziliang. Tik Tok had a rule: Only when an account reached 10k fans could it receive permission to post long videos. Before that, they could only post short videos that lasted only 15 seconds. Sun Weiwei edited out the most outstanding duet part, the climax, that lasted 15 seconds. Jiang Chengfeng arranged subtitles for it according to her request.

Sun Weiwei was just about to post the video when she realized the fan count increased by 1 and turned into 9.

She subconsciously clicked open. This fan’s name was very arbitrary: “Wei(唯) Wo Du Zun”, and it was a Tik Tok account that just got made today.

TL’s Note: Wei Wo Du Zun = I am the most superior one

Sun Weiwei had no idea Tao Zhiyao’s brother was called “Tao Zhiwei”, so she didn’t connect the name to that man. She thought someone in their team convinced a friend to follow their account.

The phone page showed that the video was successfully posted.

Tik Tok recommended video types based on its viewers’ likings. The first episode from “The Sisters” was in the “musical instruments’ performance” type. Therefore, this short video was soon recommended to phones of users who liked this type.

Tao Zhiyao filmed from far away. Two silhouettes, one peach-colored and one white were the first to enter the viewers’ view. Everyone hasn’t even had the chance to see them clearly before they all got attracted to the “Jasmine” performed by the piano and the Guqin together.

The piece, “Jasmine”, was even more well-known than “Butterfly Lovers”. No matter one’s age or gender, everyone in the nation had heard of it. It could be said that this song was so popular in the country it was old-fashioned.

Sun Weiwei intentionally picked “Jasmine” out of all. She wanted a song that was so popular it was old-fashioned.

Because Sun Weiwei had the experience of making “Happy Guo Guo” become popular, she knew the viewers’ characteristics in this kind of short video application more than anyone else. People watched videos on Tik Tok to pass time, and they loved the content that was closer to life and easier to understand. If they had played those western ABCDE major concertos or ancient Chinese elegant music, fifteen seconds would be too short. Nobody would understand it to listen to it and watch it, and they wouldn’t want to think more to examine the video. They would quickly scroll to the next video.

To put it easily, what was prevalent meant elegance.

It was why “Shi-Senpai” from before would get so popular; He Qisi’s performance lacked too much sophistication and good taste.

Sure enough, as Sun Weiwei had expected, the “Jasmine” that everyone was so familiar with caught the viewers’ attention in an instant. As soon as everyone heard the familiar melody, they would fall into a trance and thought, Hey, it seems that I haven’t heard this piece in such a long time. Why don’t I spend fifteen seconds to review it once? I can also see what’s special about the performers in this video by the way.

As a result, when they watched it more closely, they realized that the two girls in the video were very familiar-looking.

Soon, someone commented: “Isn’t this the Hanfu Goddess and her roommate, Li Xiaoru?”

“I had to watch it a second time to discover that it’s really them two.”

“I had to especially click into this account that posted the video. It’s called ‘The Sisters’, and it’s a new account. ‘The Sisters’ has never posted any other video before. This is their first video.”

“Can this be the Hanfu Goddess’s alternative account?”

“There’s no need for the Hanfu Goddess to make an alternative account.”

“I don’t care. I’ve already followed it anyways! I’m following every account that’s related to the Hanfu Goddess.”

“I’ve also followed it. I’ve been surfing on Tik Tok every day, and this video is definitely exclusive. It’s the second piece combining the Guqin and the piano after the Hanfu Goddess and Li Xiaoru’s ‘Butterfly Lovers’ performance.”

“Last time, when they were playing ‘Butterfly Lovers’, the Hanfu Goddess was wearing a western dress. This time, she looks much better wearing a hanfu.”

“They’ve chosen the wrong song. The artistic mood is wrong. Hanfu Goddess is dressed like a peach blossom fairy, but why are they playing ‘Jasmine’?”

“You don’t understand. This is called a unique style.”

“Yeah. Do the two girls have to wear all white to be able to play ‘Jasmine’?”

“The Hanfu Goddess’s hanfu in peach looks too pretty. I think this is the best-looking set of hanfu she has worn out of all the ones we’ve seen her wear. Unfortunately, the video is too short. I haven’t even had the chance to look in closely before it ended.”

“The video owner put a page of words that flashed quickly at the end of the video. I screen-shotted it and changed it into my profile picture. Everyone, quickly click open it. He’s saying that if the account reaches over 10k fans, they will post an exclusive long video of the full duet.”

This comment was liked by tens of thousands of users.

And this comment was written by Jiang Chengfeng using an alternative account.

Sure, at the end of the video, there were words; however, it was only one frame. No matter how fast the netizens’ hands were, they would never be able to screenshot it. It was all a scheme.

And so, after one hour, the fan count of “The Sisters” crazily flew up from 9 to over 10k.
