Due to receiving more than eight million votes, Li Kong, who was previously obscure at the West Rainbow Zoo, instantly shot to fame.
However, just a day later, he was almost subjected to an internet backlash.
The cause of this incident started with a video taken by a tourist.
This tourist happened to be a postgraduate student specializing in animal-related fields, and his chosen topic was the interaction patterns between animals and their mates.
For this topic, he spent several days in a row at the West Rainbow Zoo.
On the first day, he filmed Li Kong interacting with a female macaque.
Just as he thought this was Li Kong's mate, Li Kong started flirting with another female langur.
Of course, to him, this seemed completely normal.
After all, it's a monkey king, having a few wives and concubines is understandable.
But when he came back the next day, he found Li Kong engaging in inappropriate behavior with several other female monkeys.
Just when he thought this was the limit, on the third day, Li Kong switched targets again.
Over the course of three days, he had filmed Li Kong interacting with no less than 10 female monkeys.
While being shocked, he casually posted his discovery online.
And he paired it with an extremely eye-catching title.
"Shock! A male leader at the zoo has been taking advantage of his position to maintain improper relationships with more than ten female subordinates. This male leader has nearly ten million fans online."
As soon as the video was posted, it immediately attracted a lot of attention from netizens.
There was no way around it; the title was just too explosive.
Netizens almost immediately thought of a certain person.
After all, there's only one person who could be referred to as the male leader of the zoo with nearly ten million fans online.
Netizens were even ready to start hurling insults.
However, when they clicked in to take a look, they were immediately dumbfounded.
"Holy crap, you big clickbaiter, you tricked me into wasting my data."
"The editor is really talented, how did you come up with such a ghostly title?"
"I thought someone dug up some dirt on the director, but it turns out it's just a monkey."
"Indeed, it's a male leader from the zoo."
"I thought, how could the director have this ability? There aren't many young females in the West Rainbow Zoo."
"Just a ticket-selling girl and a few animal-feeding aunts before, I was wondering if the director was a beast in human clothing."
"Editor, come out, I'm going to beat you up."
"Good lord, I was about to go to the director's account and insult him."
"It's too late, I've already insulted him, it's too late to take it back."
"I'm too naive, I was tricked by this ghostly title."
"No, I can't be the only one fooled, I have to share it."
"Yes yes, share it."
...
With the reposting of these netizens who felt they had been tricked, this casually posted video was quickly shared on various social platforms.
And when people saw the title of this video, their first thought was obviously the same as the previous group of netizens.
"No way, did Director Yang have a scandal?"
"He looks so decent, how could he do such a thing."
"More than ten, impressive!"
"Ha-ha-ha, I'm dying of laughter, would you guys please finish reading before commenting, I can't stop laughing."
"Goodness, so this is the kind of male leader we have in the zoo."
"The monkey king is not a leader though."
"I voted for this Li Kong yesterday, I didn't expect he would turn out to be such a monkey."
"A master of time management, indeed, dating more than ten people in three days."
"My idol has fallen, my beloved brother turned out to be such a monkey."
"What a chaotic zoo, a monkey can do such things, the zookeeper should revoke its title of monkey king."
"Ha-ha-ha, can I take back my vote? I suddenly don't want to vote for this monkey messing with gender relationships."
"I also demand a re-vote."
"Although he's just a monkey, Ningnan City absolutely cannot let a notorious monkey become the mascot."
....
As the video spread and fermented, more and more people became aware of Li Kong's situation.
Even walking down the streets, one could hear related comments.
However, the message somewhat changed during the process of spreading.
"Did you hear about a male idol named Li Kong? His house collapsed, you know?"
"Really? But who is Li Kong? Never heard of him."
"He's a popular young male artist recently."
"Oh, oh, oh, seems familiar, he debuted from a talent show, right?"
"I heard he has millions of fans, and he's dating more than ten people at the same time."
"That's outrageous, he's the scum of all scumbags."
......
"I heard that a guy named Li Kong's house collapsed, killing more than ten people, all women."
"How can so many people live in one house?"
"Must be a rental."
"Then this Li Kong will probably be sentenced, there are too many unscrupulous landlords these days."
At this moment, the spectators who are eager to watch the drama no longer care about where the drama came from.
But they remembered one thing, that is, not to vote for Li Kong.
The reason why most netizens voted for Li Kong was just for fun and to stir things up.
But at this moment, after knowing about his house collapse, they naturally changed their voting target immediately.
Soon there was a new change in the number of votes, with Li Hei, who was originally ranked third, directly rushing to second, and the gap with the first-ranked Shidi Fu became closer and closer.
Obviously, the final mascot will be chosen between these two.
One is the first generation of internet celebrities of West Rainbow Zoo, famous for being quirky.
The other is the new generation of cute king of West Rainbow Zoo, known for being adorably silly.
And just when all the netizens were looking forward to the birth of the final result, Yang Lin, who was in the office, was staring at the screen of his phone with an incredulous expression.
"What the hell, when did I have improper relationships with more than ten female subordinates.
"Defamation, this is complete defamation."
"I haven't even had a girlfriend, how did I suddenly become the king of scumbags."
It was not until he finished watching the video that he let out a long sigh of relief.
"It scared me, I thought it was because I was too famous, so people started making up negative rumors about me."
"Li Kong almost screwed me over, tomorrow I'm going to demote your Monkey King. Such a young age and you're not behaving, now you've become the first animal in West Rainbow Zoo to have a bad reputation."
"This is just self-destruction."
Just when Yang Lin was somewhat speechless due to the big blunder in front of him, the news of the first special sports event to be held in Ningnan City also began to heat up.
Perhaps because of the mascot election this time, the news immediately attracted a lot of attention as soon as it was released.
Especially when netizens saw the events related to animals in the news.
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
