Chapter 27
The explosive kindergarten incident that sparked an uproar online ended in an unexpected way.
At first, ordinary netizens didn't understand the truth and fiercely criticized the kindergarten for days, all for the sake of Shen Qingqing.
Everyone had good intentions, fearing that the kindergarten might have abused the children.
Little did they know that they had become the perpetrators of the online harassment.
Netizens felt frustrated and indignant, feeling like they had been used.
They had a subtle sense of guilt towards Starry Sky Kindergarten.
They wanted to donate some money, but when Shen Wei went live, she said they didn't need the money.
Looking at the decorations in her house and the facilities inside and outside the building, it did seem like what she said was true.
Just when everyone had nowhere to vent their emotions, a notice caught everyone's attention.
The official short video account of Starry Sky Kindergarten announced: We are willing to accept supervision from the whole world. Starting tomorrow, we will open a live broadcast for three hours every day.
The more open and transparent Starry Sky Kindergarten became, the more guilty the netizens felt.
"We believe in you now, don't be like this." Xiao Qi was one of them.
During this period, she had been like a keyboard warrior, ruthlessly attacking the kindergarten, and now that it had turned out this way, she hurriedly posted this sentence online, and it was soon upvoted to the top hot comment.
Some people also comforted: "This is a good kindergarten, much better than those evasive ones."
Everyone was really curious to see what the kindergarten's live broadcast would be like.
Suddenly, the news that Starry Sky Kindergarten would start live broadcasting at 9 o'clock tomorrow mysteriously topped the trending hot search list on the humanities ranking.
The number of people who clicked to reserve and watch reached 200,000, and it was still rising.
...
At Starry Sky Kindergarten, Shen Wei led everyone to install the various live-broadcasting equipment.
These devices were awarded by the system and were very advanced, so they didn't need professional recording and post-production. The system could take care of everything.
Now the system and Shen Wei were a community of shared destiny. The higher Shen Wei's score, the more benefits the system would provide.
So she was putting in her whole heart and soul in these matters.
Moreover, the system was confident that no one could do better than it, because it was the most advanced AI that had transcended the times.
Other kindergartens had tried to boost the heat of this incident, hoping to undermine Starry Sky Kindergarten.
Unexpectedly, they had inadvertently helped them, gaining them such a huge influx of traffic.
It made those kindergarten people feel regretful, as they were the ones who had to fork out money.
But Starry Sky Kindergarten had turned this situation to their advantage.
The leaders of other kindergartens sighed enviously, "Starry Sky Kindergarten must have someone guiding them."
Ordinary people really couldn't handle this wave of traffic.
Other people said, "Shall we start a live broadcast in our kindergarten too?" to ride on the trend and make some money, why not?
But the other kindergartens said no. They might not be able to withstand this kind of live broadcast.
If the effect is good, it's fine! But if there's even a small slip-up, and the people online see it, it'll be another huge uproar.
At the end of the day, they just didn't have Shen Wei's openness.
Other kindergartens were just annoyed.
When they first learned that Shen Wei was running a kindergarten, many of their peers looked down on her. "A little girl, coming to our territory? Does she think this is a place for her?"
They were just waiting for reality to slap her in the face. But unexpectedly, it was their own faces that got slapped.
Seeing Starry Sky Kindergarten reap such huge benefits, they began to suspect that it was their own hype from the beginning.
"Young people really have their tricks!"
With this kind of promotion online, Starry Sky Kindergarten directly caught fire! It is said that this wave of traffic was worth more than 10 million.
And Starry Sky Kindergarten got it all for free.
The more they thought about it, the angrier they got.
When they heard that Starry Sky Kindergarten was going to start a live broadcast, many of their peers couldn't even eat their lunch.
Teacher Tang's former boss was the angriest.
The middle-aged shrew of a director directly said in the family group and the teacher group: "From now on, everyone should keep an eye on the live broadcast, and as soon as you find any violations, report them. For each successful report, I'll give a 50-yuan reward."
She just couldn't believe it, with so many people, they still couldn't find any problems with them.
The other teachers agreed immediately, as before, they weren't even allowed to play with their phones at work. If caught, they would be fined. But now not only would they not be fined, they would even get paid, it seems the boss was really angry.
That night, many kindergarten operators couldn't sleep, and the next day, kindergartens across the city were all focused on this matter.
Exactly at 9 o'clock, the number of fans on Starry Sky Kindergarten's official Weibo account started to grow rapidly.
In the first hour, it was just 230,000, and in the blink of an eye, it had changed to 300,000, and the decimal numbers were constantly increasing.
As soon as the live broadcast started, the first thing that caught everyone's eye was Shen Wei's beautiful appearance, and the netizens were immediately struck by this visual feast. "Sister, come cuddle with me."
"She's so beautiful, her looks can even rival those in the entertainment industry."
Shen Wei greeted everyone, "Let's go see the children together!"
Then she welcomed the children one by one at the school gate.
The school bus that drove in was the latest bulletproof model, a high-end school bus.
As the children got off the bus one by one, they greeted Shen Wei politely, "Hello, Principal Sister."
Their soft and cute voices instantly melted the hearts of the viewers.
Shen Wei also greeted each of them, "Hello, Qianqian."
"Hello, Lingling."
"Hello, Yu Le."
The children, seeing Shen Wei responding to their greetings, ran away happily, but would occasionally steal a glance back at Shen Wei.
Their adorable little expressions immediately made the viewers in front of the screen burst into laughter.
"It turns out I don't dislike children, I just dislike naughty kids."
"These little darlings are so cute and polite."
"And the way they shyly look back after running away, it just gets to me."
After everyone had gotten off, they went back to the classroom together, and the netizens started to discuss enthusiastically again.
"Where are those black sheep who said it was all an act? Just look at the mental state of these children, who looks like they've been abused?"
"They all look bright and cheerful. It's clear they are well-cared for and loved."
"These days, it's so easy to spread rumors online without any consequence. I'm so angry when I think about how Shen Qingqing almost got accepted by the Lu Group."
"Yeah, that kind of despicable person, can't they just stay away?"
"Don't argue, it's not worth getting all worked up over such people. Let's just focus on the little darlings."
Soon they entered the classroom.
As soon as Teacher Tang came in, the children excitedly ran up to her, vying to be hugged. Teacher Tang knew the little darlings loved hugs, and she hugged them one by one.
The netizens were all moved, this is the kind of love for children that only a true teacher can have.
Hugging a 30-pound child must be quite tiring, and there were so many children who all needed equal attention.
"Qianqian is the cutest, although she's very shy, but when she's being hugged, her little feet are swinging happily."
"Teacher Tang is hugging not only the little kids, but also the five-year-old me."
This statement immediately resonated with many people: "Yes, if only I had had a teacher like this when I was in school."
A single sentence and the netizens were moved to tears. Luckily, this sad atmosphere didn't last long.
Then Shen Wei told Teacher Tang, "Let's take the kids to play house, and today we'll play the kitchen game."
These were all rewards from the system, and she had decorated a small room for them.
Hearing they were going to play house, the children cheered excitedly.
The adults in front of the computer screens were also a little excited: "Isn't this the game we loved playing when we were little?"
Before, they just played it randomly, but now with a teacher guiding them, they were looking forward to seeing how it would go.
