　　On August 3rd, the original article "Can’t I like a" online celebrity "pushed by WeChat official account, the official WeChat of China University Media Alliance, attracted the attention of netizens. Ren Yuxuan, the author of the article and a 2015 undergraduate student of Communication University of China, said in the article that in the eyes of many people, it is acceptable to follow the stars, and it is hard to talk about liking "online celebrity". "True, kind, talented, with positive energy … … Can these excellent qualities only exist in the stars, but not in the grassroots ‘ Online celebrity ’ On the body? " She asked.

　　On the second day after the article was published, with the reprinting of many influential WeChat public accounts and comments from netizens, Weibo’s topic "I like a ‘ Online celebrity ’ What’s wrong? "ranked first in the hot search list, with more than 15 million readings.

　　China University Media Alliance launched a survey among 1,847 college students nationwide, among which 42% of the students surveyed said that they had "paid attention to different types of ‘ Online celebrity ’ " , 47% of the college students surveyed said "Yes ‘ Online celebrity ’ Groups don’t catch a cold ","Right ‘ Online celebrity ’ There are 10% college students who have a certain aversion.

　　"People who can bring joy and positive attitude should be respected, not because of ‘ Online celebrity ’ The two words are labeled with some inexplicable labels. " Some netizens wrote in the comments.

　　Pay attention to the "online celebrity" in literature, music, beauty, games and other fields.

　　Wu Yingqian, majoring in journalism and communication at Zhejiang Sci-Tech University, has been paying attention to Weibo red man Yuan Zihao and Yuan Ziwen since high school. In Wu Yingqian’s third year of high school, she bought the first book "I hope my world will always have half of you" by the "literary brothers". At that time, she was experiencing a "low valley" in her Chinese performance. When she read that her younger brother Yuan Ziwen had encountered a bottleneck in high school and still didn’t give up, Wu Yingqian was moved. She encouraged herself by taking the "literary brothers" as an example, and she firmly believed that she could also overcome difficulties.

　　Yuan Zihao and Yuan Ziwen, who have millions of fans on Weibo, graduated from Peking University, and the two brothers became popular with the publication of their inspirational novel "May my world always have half of you" in 2013. Now almost every Weibo of the two brothers has tens of thousands of "likes". Some people even call them "two young stars flying in the sky."

　　Wu Yingqian pays close attention to the public trends of "Wenhao Brothers", and is also familiar with their brand endorsements and related activities. Even in her English composition and her usual writing class assignments, the shadow of the "literary giant" brothers is everywhere. She said that people who pay more attention to the two brothers like their works and their fine quality rather than just their handsome appearance.

　　Yang Qianyu, a junior girl from Anhui Normal University, started talking when she mentioned Priest, the writer of "online celebrity". Compared with most peers’ pursuit of high-value stars, 20-year-old Yang Qianyu admits that she does not belong to the "Appearance Association". In her view, Yan value is the heavyweight weight of online celebrity’s popularity, but without connotation and cultivation, "no matter how beautiful the face is, it won’t last long".

　　Priest in Yang Qianyu’s mouth graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University, and is an online novel writer. She is recognized as "highly educated online celebrity". According to public data, Priest’s novel collection has exceeded 150,000. Similar to many popular writers, whenever Priest updates chapters, it always causes positive responses from fans.

　　Yang Qianyu came across Priest’s works when she was a sophomore in high school. She regarded Priest as her "goddess". She feels that although the online writer is only Priest’s deputy, it can be seen from the lines of the works that Priest has shown good strength in every work.

　　Influenced by idols, Yang Qianyu, who chose the Chinese Department in the university, has now embarked on the road of writing. Since January this year, Yang Qianyu has been busy updating her works. Although she has only collected 10 readers and 3 flowers so far, she still feels great satisfaction even if she is recognized by only one reader.

　　Bai Yanxin, a college student who likes to make up and take photos everyday, has followed nearly 500 "online celebrity" such as "Fashion Blogger" and "Beauty Blogger" on Weibo. She pays attention to the daily life of "online celebrity", wears recommendations, and reads Weibo recommended by different beauty bloggers to help her "not miss" when shopping.

　　“‘ Online celebrity ’ It is an ordinary person who is very close to us. "

　　"I think ‘ Online celebrity ’ It is a group of people who are better than us in some respects. They are not as high as stars or other celebrities, and we ordinary people can also reach them. " Ye Yu mentioned an experience with online celebrity.

　　On one occasion, Ye Yu wanted to find a song, but because of copyright issues, the song has not been published online. Later, "online celebrity" Didi helped him. Didi is a music producer and often composes music for singers. On a live broadcast platform, he has nearly 100,000 fans.

　　Last August, Ye Yu came to Beijing for a concert and met Didi offline. "We talked a lot about music and life." Ye Yu recalled that during that period, he had been struggling whether to formally develop into music, and Didi strengthened his confidence. "Didi told me that the key to making music is to have a heart. Many people in the music circle became monks halfway, and some even became good producers without training."

　　After learning that Ye Yu wanted to study music formally, Didi became his keyboard teacher. "Didi is very willing to lead the way for people who really want to learn. He also recommended many books on music theory to me, and many of my vocal music teachers are also introduced by him." Ye Yu said.

　　There are many "online celebrity" like Didi in Ye Yu’s WeChat. "I think now ‘ Online celebrity ’ Slowly transforming, ‘ Awl face ’ Cannot represent all ‘ Online celebrity ’ , I am now concerned about ‘ Online celebrity ’ It is precisely those who are capable and talented. " Ye Yu said.

　　Gan Tian, a teacher in the psychology department of Zhejiang Sci-Tech University, believes that from the psychological point of view, young people’s liking for "online celebrity" is the result of the interaction of two seemingly contradictory psychological factors: conformity psychology and seeking difference psychology. On the one hand, it is easy for young people to form a trend of chasing "online celebrity" in similar circle of friends. At the same time, the distinctive features of "online celebrity" give people a sense of chasing unconventional behavior.

　　“‘ Online celebrity ’ It is easier to resonate, which is called ‘ Empathy ’ . ‘ Online celebrity ’ Just like an ordinary person around you, you think he is very interesting and characteristic, more grounded and more easily attracted to him. " Sweet said.

　　In the sweet view, whether you like "online celebrity" or a star, it is an opportunity for self-recognition. "Know yourself, analyze yourself, find the reasons, and think about liking ‘ Online celebrity ’ The reason, can more rationally chase ‘ Online celebrity ’ 。”

　　"Yes ‘ Online celebrity ’ The evaluation cannot be generalized. "

　　Gao Yiwei, from Shaanxi University of Science and Technology, said that he seldom logs in to Weibo. As soon as he heard "online celebrity" in Weibo, he frowned. "Hypocrisy, exaggeration and affectation." He said of the "online celebrity".

　　In his impression, "online celebrity" is mostly "with an awl chin that is too sharp, a high-profile style of showing off wealth and overconfidence in appearance". He still remembers a popular video he accidentally saw in Weibo, in which a "online celebrity" cried and shouted at the screen of his mobile phone that he was being chased. He felt bored and difficult to understand.

　　Gao Yiwei believes that many "online celebrity" do some meaningless and eye-catching things that violate the values in pursuit of clicks and attention, which is disgusting.

　　Similar to Gao Yiwei’s point of view, when it comes to online celebrity, Shen Zhe immediately thinks of words such as "plastic face", "showing off one’s position" and "showing off one’s wealth". Shen Zhe felt that for these "online celebrity", even criticism and questioning are a kind of flow, so they have been "out of sight, out of mind".

　　Gan Tian said that when people saw that the image of "online celebrity" was mostly the image of "plastic face", they naturally labeled it as such. The advantage of "labeling" is that it can help people understand this matter quickly and deal with some problems, but on the other hand, it is not so objective and comprehensive, but it is biased. Some "online celebrity" will be grandstanding and transmit a lot of negative energy and information in order to attract fans and keep the number of fans. When many prominent negative energy "online celebrity" becomes a "stereotyped" impression, most people will feel disgusted with "online celebrity".

　　Chen Peng, director of the Department of Communication, School of Literature, Nankai University, believes that there is no standard definition of "online celebrity". He explained: "We usually call this group that has greatly improved its popularity, attention and fans through some online behaviors, activities and events through the Internet platform ‘ Online celebrity ’ 。”

　　"Many times, ‘ Online celebrity ’ Need to do something out of line to become a ‘ Explosions ’ And these behaviors or events themselves are easy to cause controversy. But if it is not out of line and there is no controversy, it will be difficult to attract attention. " Chen Peng said that it is easy for people to have a lot of negative views on "online celebrity" by gaining a high number of fans through outrageous events or events that break the bottom line. He also said that this kind of controversial "online celebrity" is usually short-lived and unsustainable.

　　"Yes ‘ Online celebrity ’ The evaluation cannot be generalized. " A university teacher thinks that if we evaluate the group of "online celebrity", we must pay attention to what they do in combination with the specific "online celebrity". He mentioned that he would consciously share some examples of positive energy "online celebrity" with students during the interval of daily teaching. "Actually ‘ Online celebrity ’ There are many excellent and positive cases in the group, such as the graduation speech delivered by Genshu, the former president of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and the reading of old academicians in the second class of high-speed rail, which are worth promoting and learning by students ‘ Online celebrity ’ 。”
