Recently, a sensational incident related to Dong Yuhui and Dongfang Selection has caused a monstrous wave on the Internet. Although Yu Minhong's team tried to resolve the turmoil through a combined live broadcast, and Dongfang Xiaosun was also removed from his post for being involved in the turmoil, the turmoil has not completely subsided. However, recently, netizens accidentally discovered a live broadcast room called "Western Selection", which imitated Oriental Selection almost in all directions and became a hot topic of a new wave of discussions.
It can be seen from the name of this live broadcast room that Western Selection obviously wants to take advantage of the popularity of Eastern Selection, and even found an anchor who looks like Dong Yuhui, which became the focus of all walks of life for a while. This mysterious anchor interacted actively with netizens in the live broadcast room, and seemed to have the same effect as Dong Yuhui when answering questions, which surprised many concerned netizens.
In addition to the similarity in appearance, Western Reserve is also trying its best to build the image of the anchor. The anchor always has something to say when answering questions from netizens in the live broadcast room, trying to create a knowledgeable image for himself. However, smart netizens pointed out in the comment area that although the appearance can be imitated, the inner knowledge and eloquence cannot be copied.
In the first video released by the account, the streamer announced that the first live broadcast had received nearly 1 million views, thanking everyone for their support and admitting that the premiere was not well prepared. In the video, the anchor warmly invited netizens to get together again at 10 o'clock tonight (18th), seemingly in order to continue to earn network popularity. For the premiere to achieve such a high number of views, it can be said that the Western Selection has successfully captured the popularity of the Eastern Selection.
And this kind of copycat phenomenon is not uncommon on the Internet. In the past, Ling Dale (Luha), a core member of the copycat boy group ESO, successfully attracted the attention of many fans by hyping his monthly income of 5 million and earning 35 million with goods in seven months. And now, Lu He and Wang Erbo, who are also members of ESO, have followed their boss Ling Dale and signed a contract with the MCN founded by Ling Dale and become part of the live broadcast with goods.
This incident has sparked widespread heated discussions and discussions. Some people are dissatisfied with this kind of copycat behavior, believing that it lacks innovation and only loses its personality while chasing popularity. On the other hand, there are also people who believe that this is a normal part of market competition, and as long as the legal red line is not touched, imitation is a kind of commercial means.
In response to this heat war, I think that the imitation strategy adopted by Western Selection may be successful in the short term, but in order to be invincible in the long term, it must be more innovative and unique. In the online world, imitation is a means that can quickly accumulate attention, but if you only stay in the imitation stage, it is difficult to stand out from the fierce competition.
In addition, the phenomenon of "copycats" in the context of the Internet, although full of controversy, is actually part of the Internet culture. While people are pursuing novelty and popularity, they will also feel familiar with some familiar elements. This may be the reason why some copycat phenomena can appear frequently on the Internet. However, the key to success lies in how to add new elements to the imitation and make yourself stand out from the crowd of imitators.
In the end, this great drama of imitation and innovation continues to be staged, and it is a magnificent Internet craze. We can expect that there will be more unusual plots in the future, maybe new stars will emerge, and maybe more copycats will find their place in innovation. Let's witness the unpredictability of this virtual stage and find out who can have the last laugh in this battle of heat.
