According to the Qianjiang Evening News, after gymnastics champion Wu Liufang was involved in the scandal, reporters noticed that female anchors from the same MCN organization were still using short videos involving "edge" to attract traffic, and the company's recruitment of "outstanding girls" was also continuing.
During the reporter's interview, a "trader" of the company said bluntly: "Only female anchors are recruited, with various styles, but it is easiest to get a number if they are just on the sidelines."
According to a trader of "Haixingchen", the incubated Internet celebrities plan exclusive routes based on the characteristics of girls. Some short video contents are "trivial", while others reflect various styles such as "youthful girl", "lively and cute", and "royal sister".
He also said: "However, 'sideline' traffic will be better. It is not uncommon for female anchors who are willing to use this method to attract traffic. However, you cannot 'sideline' during live broadcasts, otherwise your account will be banned from the platform."
