Chapter 907: Birthday Party (1)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The birthday party wasn’t exactly grand, but for many fans, it was their most antic.i.p.ated event.

It was even more exciting for those fans who could attend.

For this birthday party, the fans started to raise money for support two weeks in advance.

In recent years, fans’ support of celebrities had gotten more and more crazy and exciting.

From bus and subway station billboards and all sorts of LED ads, to other expensive gifts, there was nothing the fans didn’t think of.

After all, there was more than one star in the industry, so they had to do their best to make their idol’s name stand out. They wanted their idol to s.h.i.+ne the brightest!

However, Xia Xibei had said before that she hoped people did not go crazy and overspend on her.

The student fans, especially, should not support her like this.

Even if the fan’s family was wealthy, the money was their parents’ and they should not be so wasteful.

Fans who were already working should use their income to improve their own lives.

Moreover, she didn’t need people to give her gifts.

Instead of giving her gifts, it would be better to use those gifts for charity.

She also made a post saying that she would only accept handmade gifts at most, and she would not accept any of the expensive gifts.

Her statement was, “I am richer than you think!”

This statement managed to ignite a lively discussion, which led to many people’s amus.e.m.e.nt.

Everyone knew that stars were much richer than ordinary people. Ordinary people could not earn in a lifetime what a star earned in one show, so it would be hilarious for these fans, who were so poor, to spend a lot of money to give a gift to a celebrity.

However, many artists did not refuse fans’ gifts. After all, the gifts represented their fans’ devotion.

Still, gift-giving could easily cause problems.

There were idols who reportedly threw away inexpensive gifts from fans.

These incidents hurt the hearts of the fans and some people had stopped being such idols’ fans. This was simply trampling on their hearts!

Xia Xibei didn’t want this to happen and had to turn it down right at the source.

She refused such gifts, but asked for a new kind of gift.

If the fan was a student, any progress in grades was the best gift.

If the fan was working, a promotion or raise was the best gift.

Such a special request got everyone talking once again.

However, this different style of request had helped her gain more fans, and get more fans to come to the birthday party.

So, with such a large group of fans, those who were lucky enough to be drawn for party attendance were extremely lucky!

Everyone almost fought to the death!

Although Xia Xibei did not accept gifts, the fan support was there.

So, early in the morning, various support booths were set up outside the party venue, and Xia Xibei’s photos and posters were spread all over the place.

Although only 200 people could get in, more than that came to the venue.

They couldn’t get in, but they felt as if they were close to Xia Xibei!

When Xia Xibei pa.s.sed by in her car, she lowered the window and said h.e.l.lo to everyone, which triggered an enthusiastic chase.

After entering the venue and rehearsing once, it was soon 2 pm, and the birthday party officially started.

In the beginning, Xia Xibei sang three of her own songs, which drew cheers and applause from the audience.

After the performance, the heart-to-heart session began.

In this session, the fans and Xia Xibei could get close to each other and play games together.
