Crying 'corn' and angry 'bean jelly'Posted by Tsingsong, August 31, 2005 10:49 AM
![]() Crying 'corn' by Legal Mirror The fans of "Super Voice Girls" are really crazy for their idols. Before Li Yuchuan and Zhou Bichang arrived in Beijing on Aug 28 for 'Final PK' press conference. The online forums at Baidu have already buzzed with super girls fans' posts on the preparation to welcome their heroines at the airport. The 'corn' (Li Yuchuan's fans) agreed to dress uniformed T-shirts, stick corn labels on their faces and prepare welcome slogans. When Li got off from the airplane, she was blocked by lots of stewardess who asked for her signature. Li got scared and had to go out through another special track to escape next block from her 'corn'. The 'corn' were very disappointed, they could not help crying since they missed their idol. The fans of Zhou Bichang got the lesson from the 'corn', so that they kept on all exits of the airport. Finally they met their 'Bibi' (Zhou's nickname) after almost 10 hours long waiting. Zhang Liangying, who caught the third in "Super Voice Girls" final didn't attend the press conference in Beijing, but it will not influence the passion from her 'bean jelly' (Zhang's fans). Yesterday, a question in a forum of SHANDA Asking arised the anger from 'bean jelly'. A question appeared in a column called 'Scholar meets Soldier', it is: "If there is a sugar daddy offering a sweet deal, would Zhang Liangying accept it?" This question did offend 'bean jelly'. They faught with SHANDA and ask for its public apology. Finally SHANDA removed the question and clarified it was made by online users, not their own staff. Links and Sources
