Mixed feelings over the fact that they faked the stream, Hu Luoluo and Chilly wouldn't be responsible if these people got cyberbullied, cause it's literally the consequences of their actions.

But of course I'm petty, so what do I know

Okay then...

At first, I thought this seemed all short sighted, mainly considering that

A) I dont think businesses would care for school bullying, as that can be waved away as "different times, different person", so not even sure what she's worried about, but thats what pressure does: It adds stress to an otherwise non-distressing scenario. If she knew that much, Id imagine she'd be aight, but then

B) She decides to act bitchy in front of her... well if you were trying to get to a bank and have the past bullying ignored, well this new showcase of temper all but sealed the deal in the event it gets out... that bully did not think that through huh?

Thats all well and good, and they got what they deserved... but I cant lie... unless it was part of the plan...

Why did Luoluo let her phone get broken? My closest guess is that she really wanted to make this look as bad as possible, but cmon girl... no cloud saves? Thank all the gods that Chilly can stream things, this wouldve been mission failed had it not been for that.

Im sure regardless, that shit felt good. That bitch better watch out 🔥

Ehhh

I think the point of faking the stream is really just them pushing the bullies into paranoia. They won't know it's fake unless they try and go to court over it but would it be worth it if you'd find out it's fake but still have to testify to the facts of the situation in a hearing?

Like "Yes, I've bullied her and broke her phone in a fit of rage when she confronted me about it, but don't you see I'm still wronged here even if this had no negative consequences on my social life whatsoever?"

C'mon.

She didn't seem that bummed about the phone so, probably planned for something like that?

The expression to an extent tells me otherwise, but again, Id imagine she had a sneaking feeling that'd happen, and is prolly the main reason she used Chilly for this: As a contingency plan in case shit hits the fan.

So hey, it all works in the end sweet. Sweet. Revenge.

This just feels kinda dumb honestly. What did this actually accomplish? After a week they'll realize it was fake and move on, it's not like being confronted by your past shitty self will have any effect if you are still shitty, which they are.

They admitted that they made the whole thing up and bullied them. That's all they wanted

 

[nyannibalism]

thanks for the translation!

shout out to the guys in the back making the streaming magic happen, without them it probably would have been noticed it was fake

 

[Colonel-Picquart]

Even If the livestream is fake I think this sort of info will still leak slowly too. There's a whole class of people there, and some of them will blab. Honestly the teacher is the one at most risk since someone in the class will probably report her at some point especially if they have kids they want to put through that school.

not really sure but this part is probably a cultural thing and not just falling to pressure. i dont see why else it would be such a big point here

Not dumb, the goal was two-fold: first, to scare the shit out of most of the people who just stood back and let it happen (and at least this time managed to speak up a bit); and second, to get the reactions of both the teacher and the main bullies on film.

They'll realise soon enough that the livestream was faked, but the footage that they took? You think they won't realise that footage is still sitting on someone's hard drive somewhere, just waiting to be released? Everyone in that room will spend the next few weeks at least wondering when that shoe will drop, and just how badly it might blow up . . .

And when it is released, very strategically, with all the necessary information provided to give it the most impact, what do you think everyone in that room who wasn't one of the main perpetrators will do? The very first thing they'll do will be to distance themselves from the bullying, and do their best to make sure that the shit spraying around the room hits someone else - the natural targets being both the teacher and the bullies. There's going to be lots of enthusiastic witnesses coming forward to back up Hu LuoLuo and Chilly's version of events, and throw the bad guys under the bus.

A) I dont think businesses would care for school bullying, as that can be waved away as "different times, different person", so not even sure what she's worried about, but thats what pressure does: It adds stress to an otherwise non-distressing scenario. If she knew that much, Id imagine she'd be aight, but then

It's not really that the bank would care about bullying in high school per se, it's the way it'd be exposed and spread - given how much of an audience Chilly has, any bank that was considering hiring the bullies would have to contend with some serious negative press, and that they will care about. Even if she was the CEO's kid there'd still be consequences, and while she clearly has some money and connections, I seriously doubt she's got connections like that - she's basically screwed if it gets out.

And the teacher is completely screwed as soon as this gets out - like, loss of career screwed.

Why did Luoluo let her phone get broken? My closest guess is that she really wanted to make this look as bad as possible, but cmon girl... no cloud saves? Thank all the gods that Chilly can stream things, this wouldve been mission failed had it not been for that.

Getting the phone broken probably wasn't part of the plan, but you'd have to be an idiot to set up the whole get-together like this and not have it being filmed from as many angles as possible. If this was just Hu LuoLuo gatecrashing a regular class reunion then maybe the one phone is all she'd have (though even then I'd expect her to be more organised than that), but the entire thing was planned by them from the get-go, and with Chilly's resources there's no way they wouldn't have been properly prepared.

And honestly, having the phone stolen and smashed like that, as well as having the bullying gang get back together like that, really was the icing on the cake - that response showed how deliberate their actions are (and were), and how completely unrepentant they are. It'll make some seriously good vision when they finally decide to release it.

I think maybe the author didn't think things through, we all know Hu Luoluo is typical goody two-shoes who probably won't really leak the videos, Chilly maybe would but won't because of Hu Luoluo.

But here the thing, the story is in China, Asian countries tend to put a lot of importance on how others see you, sure business in the west do too obviously, but Asian countries like Japan and China have a entire shame culture where you shouldn't do, or at least not get publicly caught, doing  anything that will bring shame to yourself, family, peers, colleagues, job and so on, it can literally ruin your life if it's something big and bad enough.

So with that in mind, isn't faking the stream possibly worse? Think about it, if the stream was real it would ruin their lives, the teacher probably would be forced to retire, the bullies most likely would lose their jobs and the stream would no doubt follow them for a few years, but after like 5 to 10 years nobody would really care, it would be old news, sure it's a long time but they're young, they can recover.

But with the stream being fake they're probably gonna assume it was filmed anyway, imagine being in the bullies place, working hard for your future, always wondering, will Hu Luoluo release the video today? Tomorrow? Maybe next week or next month?

I imagine the author just take it at face value, Hu Luoluo and Chilly gave a "fuck you" to these people, life goes on, but for the bullies it's effectively long term psychological torture, always paranoid, wondering if today is the day everything they built get destroyed.

As someone who was bullied in school that is the right way to deal with them.
They have put psychological torture on an innocent child and even refused to set it right as an adult. They are beyond redemption and if you didn't put them on a gunpoint, they like you said will forget what happened and start their bullying behaviour again, so they are always reminded that if they act out they will face backlash.
If they would have sincerely apologised, the students and the useless teacher(who definitely should never get a promotion) then yeah I agree with you, but here is the point, they didn't and only bullied even more. They don't deserve only a "short" amount of pain. Also when you want to count years of psychological trauma, than you should consider, that bullied kidd still have their trauma deep inside, even if it seems like they have overcome it, there can be a lot of situations were it is triggered again.
