Chapter 697
It was completely logical for something to attract more attention when it grew bigger . When a person grew in popularity, they would attract all sort of weird people . This was similar in theory, completely logical .
Or to be precise, it was not that one would start attracting weird people when one became popular . Rather, it was those weird people enjoyed approaching the popular person .
Because of Ma Zhida's money box, someone came looking for trouble at Yuan Zhou's restaurant .
This wasn't something weird . In the past, there were some show hosts that were coming to cause trouble as they thought the food here was too expensive . Then, they tried the food here live and ate each of the dishes served here . This time, a different kind of troublemaker was attracted .
The ID of this person was Unworried Mulberry . He had a huge following on Weibo . Ignoring the fact of whether he had any bot accounts following him, he had followers in the millions . His main job was to look for trouble, reporting on topics that would bring trouble to others .
For example, when there was an incident where students that managed to pass the university entrance examinations were given a reward of 10,000 RMB, this Unworried Mulberry would start investigating this incident . When he found that this was fake as the money given was, in fact, the government subsidy for impoverished students . He would then came out to expose the truth .
Strictly speaking, his existence had more pros than cons . In this new era where the internet platforms were taking over the traditional media, fake news was surging out without a stop . The younger generation was no longer able to determine which ones were the fake news . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting .
Unworried Mulberry had been paying attention to Yuan Zhou's restaurant since a while ago . However, he had never been on site to investigate Yuan Zhou's restaurant . On one hand, he lived quite far away from Yuan Zhou's restaurant, and on the other hand, he rarely reported on food-related topics .
When he heard about the money box incident, he acted like a shark that had smelled blood . He decided that it was about time he went there to have a look .
Firstly, the price of the food at Yuan Zhou's restaurant was nearly a tenfold or even more of other restaurants . Unworried Mulberry did not think much about this . As long as the price was clearly labeled, he wouldn't mind . In any case, he had also looked into the reviews of Yuan Zhou's restaurant on the Internet . Although many of them were berating the restaurant for being expensive, there were even more reviews that praised the food there to be tasty .
So long as the food was delicious, there would always be paying customers no matter how expensive it was . In any case, the paying customers believed that what they ate was worth the price . So it did not matter if the food was expensive .
But this time, Unworried Mulberry was sure that this money box incident was definitely Yuan Zhou's restaurant putting up a show for publicity . As far as he was concerned, the quality of the food there must have dropped after it got popular . This was not the first time he had seen something like this . An example of this was the Granny's Noodles that got popular after covered by the TV show A Bite of China . It had now become a franchise .
When Unworried Mulberry tried the noodles there, he found that the taste was merely comparable to Shan Cheng Noodle, yet the noodles there were much more expensive . To be frank, their popularity was the only thing carrying their marked-up price .
Therefore, Unworried Mulberry was of the opinion that this had also happened to Yuan Zhou's restaurant . When it first opened, the food there was good . After it became popular, it started mass-producing dishes, causing the quality of the food to drop . One had to admit that this Unworried Mulberry did not have his huge following for no reason . From a tiny clue, he was able to come out with so many theories in his mind .
It wasn't like Unworried Mulberry was suspicious for no reason . In this incident, he could clearly sense that the spam army was involved . This entire thing had gone viral in an extremely unnatural manner . Therefore, he had decided that this was most definitely Yuan Zhou's restaurant putting on a show just to maintain its popularity .
