On January 4, Canadian artist Yu Jingtian arrived at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport, and a large number of fans gathered at the scene to pick up the airport, causing serious congestion, and the matter made a lot of noise, and finally ended with Yu Jingtian's public apology.
But just a few days later, on January 13, an even bigger scene of fan pick-up made everyone's jaws drop!
Look at this scene, like the zombies in European and American movies?
The thing is like this, on January 13, a singing group "Times Youth Group" took the opportunity to go to Changsha, Hunan to record a show. It was a very normal thing, but after the participation of its fan group "gorgeous", it immediately became magical.
Fans who are more powerful than all spy agencies in the world obtained the detailed itinerary of the idol through modern means, and directly chased the stars to the flight of the "Time Youth Group". One passenger recorded the crazy scene at the time:
At that time, the plane had just landed and was still taxiing, and fans of the "Times Fan Group" had already unbuckled their seat belts, got up from their seats, squeezed into the first class where the star was, and took wild photos with their mobile phones. Seeing this dangerous situation, the flight attendants immediately used the radio to remind them, but they did not stop the "enthusiasm" of the fans, and still flocked to the first class in large numbers, and even the curtains in the corridor of the plane were torn off by them.
In the end, the flight attendant tried to persuade to no avail, and in desperation chose to call the police.
However, to everyone's surprise, this group of fans in the cabin is already considered "civilized", and a large number of fans who pick up the airport are called "horror"!
When they learned that their idol's plane had landed, they forcibly broke through the guardrail, stepped on the lawn, and ran frantically to the "Times Youth Group" in a burst of shouts. There is the thrilling scene at the beginning of this article!
Fortunately, with the full maintenance of the airport staff, this pick-up incident did not cause riots, casualties, or economic losses.
Afterwards, many netizens expressed their views on the matter, and basically unanimously condemned this behavior.
After the incident, the Times Youth League Company immediately emphasized and banned it in the fan base.
I have to say that the fans of "Time Youth Group" are really capable! It is said that the number is as high as tens of millions!
And the fan group online review has been not good, enter the keyword "Times Youth League fans" in Baidu, and its drop-down convenient menu has a high-frequency keyword "how annoying are Times Youth League fans"
The search results are actually as high as 100 million!
Many people say that most of the fans of "Times Youth Group" are still young, young people, easy to be impulsive, and should be more understood. But the more young people, the more huge and large groups with idol complexes, they should be guided and educated! Otherwise, once it goes off, the consequences are unimaginable!
Some experts pointed out that fans now have the phenomenon of "pan-giant babies", while stars and entertainment companies often occupy the "mother" status of mind control, and fans like children have a blind obedience effect on stars and companies!
A star fan is only 17 years old, in order to facilitate star chasing, he also wrapped in a five-star hotel for half a year, just to get closer to his idol. He also spends money on gifts and clothes for his favorite stars, spending 60,000 or 70,000 yuan a week at most. He borrowed without money, and ended up with a huge debt of up to 920,000 yuan, and his father was just an ordinary bus driver.
A minor girl in Foshan was impersonated as her idol and defrauded her family of tens of thousands of yuan of seed money!
More than a dozen post-00s girls in Zhejiang ran into the mountains in the middle of the night and were trapped, just because they heard that a star went to the mountains to film!
A young star participated in the college entrance examination, and as a result, fans crowded around the college entrance examination room, causing serious trouble to other candidates!
In less than half a month, there have been two consecutive fan riots at the airport, which is enough to make us wary of the comeback of "rice circle culture".
In June 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China announced a nationwide campaign to "clean up the chaos in the 'rice circle'". Although the rectification action has had good results, it is hoped that it will continue to advance.
Star chasing should be rational and not exceed the bottom line of the law. Illegal acts in fan star chasing may not only disrupt safety order, but also cause personal injury, and need to bear corresponding civil, administrative and even criminal liabilities.
For the chaos of star chasing, entertainment companies and related platforms should not stay out of the matter, and should spend more attention on the formulation, publicity and supervision of rules. Celebrities should also shoulder the responsibility to regulate and restrain the behavior of fans, not just as simple as making a statement, but also taking practical actions.
For fans, especially young fans, there should be more rationality and less blind obedience. Know that the beneficiaries of the "rice circle culture" will always be:
1. Performing arts company,
2. Broadcasting agency,
3, the actor himself,
4. Sponsorship capital,
Never be a fan of you! You are just buying for a silent one ...
It now seems that there is still a long way to go to achieve truly clear spaces and the right values.
