He Zhou's words are sharp and have effectively stepped outside the realm of Stand-Up Comedy. However, throughout his life, he has never cared about rules and boundaries. He does not shy away from confrontation; he does not retaliate when hit or insulted—that is not his style! His life motto is that a gentleman takes revenge after ten years, while a petty person seeks revenge from morning till night.
He is capable of humor, but the key is that once he has vented his frustrations, everything else can wait. Faced with the noisy crowd and He Zhou's relentless questioning, Yang Li clearly became a bit flustered, almost stumbling over her words! But after all, this isn't her first day discussing Stand-Up Comedy, nor is it her first time on a show; she has some adaptability.
She knows very well that many times, as long as you are not embarrassed, it is others who feel awkward. So, in response to He Zhou's sharp inquiries, she chose to sidestep the issue and continue with her own topic. Having reaped the benefits of inciting gender conflict, she is fully aware that thousands of people are criticizing and disliking her—men and women alike, old and young.
But none of that matters; what’s most important is to soothe the fans… oh no, I mean the supporters. Of course, even more crucial is to keep the investors satisfied. As long as the capital hasn’t abandoned her, even if everyone is calling for her downfall, she can still secure endorsements and receive endless program invitations. Even if she cannot find any redeeming qualities within herself, as long as the label of 'independent woman' remains, she can still stand in the spotlight, enjoy boundless glory, and bask in the adoration of her devoted fans!
"Later on, I finally understood that it was because men are particularly confident."
Yang Li sensed the awkward atmosphere on stage but chose to continue, attempting to employ her usual tactic of belittling men to please women, even though few were paying attention to the nonsense spilling from her mouth.
"We girls are different from boys; we know that what we say doesn't matter. No one cares, except for our friends... no one cares..." As she spoke, it seemed her tongue was trembling.
Even she recognized how chaotic and full of holes her logic was, utterly indefensible! By the end, she looked as if she had just stepped out of a steam room, drenched in sweat and seemingly exhausted, biting her lip as she said, "And then, they will teach them the most important lesson in life through their actions..."
"That is, men are all trash!"
Her words fell like a heavy hammer. Normally, this would have elicited thunderous applause. However, after He Zhou's earlier revelations, many people turned their gaze toward Yang Li, instinctively feeling a sense of aversion.
The situation on site reflected this well; applause was sparse, while boos and jeers echoed throughout the room. This woman was simply too arrogant.
Her sharp and bitter remarks had hurt many ordinary people and sparked a sense of rebellion in others. Why shouldn't ordinary people be confident?
Having realized this, those who previously found Yang Li's stand-up comedy amusing began to reassess it and discovered it was far from entertaining!
It's like someone bumps into you on the street and politely says sorry; most people would choose to forgive them kindly in such a situation. However, if the person bumps into you and then starts pointing at your nose and cursing, anyone with a bit of spirit would choose to fight back! Yet, there are still some die-hard fans trying to "counterattack" and "control the narrative"! Their arguments revolve around statements like, "The big man is too petty!" "You're so angry because you've been hit where it hurts, right?" "Anyone who gets upset over a stand-up comedy act is definitely taking it personally," and "Not choosing to cut ties with a mediocre man makes you a potential mediocre man yourself." This is a set of logic that never fails.
He Zhou cleared his throat but did not explode as the host had anticipated. Instead, he turned directly to the audience, not even glancing at the teleprompter above. "Hello everyone, I am He Zhou, an ordinary yet confident man!" After this brief self-introduction, it was clear that not many people recognized him; it's awkward when your songs are popular but you're not.
Just as the audience below was speculating whether He Zhou would apologize to Yang Li under pressure from the production team, he casually put one hand in his pocket and smiled: "So, someone might say, 'He Zhou, where does your confidence come from?'"
"Before I answer that, let me tell you a true story that happened to me. It is said that when I was born, a auspicious cloud floated down from the northern sky and transformed into a single word: Handsome!" Initially, some thought it was a real story, but as they listened further, they felt something was off. This was no real experience; it was even more bizarre than a tall tale! It was utterly shameless.
"When my father saw me, he cried for a month and a half. He could not believe I was his child inherited from his chromosomes. Several times he rushed to my mother's window with a knife, waving it around and saying he wanted to turn me into minced meat..."
