Everyone was focused on the issue of securing spots at Starry Sky Kindergarten.
Shortly after, a mini-program was launched on a short video platform.
All you had to do was go in and click to grab a ticket, pay, and then the ticket would be secured before entering your personal information.
After Shen Wei published the process, her fans exclaimed, "Got it!"
"Launch it quickly!"
"Don't make me wait a second."
Shen Wei quickly launched it, and within three seconds, 500 tickets were snatched.
Several people angrily stated, "I had just gotten to the payment page, but it froze for a bit. When I went back in, the tickets were gone."
"I was sitting right on top of the router and still couldn't get a ticket."
"Did anyone actually manage to get a ticket? There were only 500 of them."
"Someone's gone crazy again. With only 500 tickets, there are too many wolves for too little meat."
"Haha, I got one!" They then showed a screenshot of their successful ticket grab.
"Who would have known, folks? First pay to lock in the ticket, then fill out your info. So convenient! When I used to get tickets for shows, I had to log in with my personal info first before trying to grab tickets. That was such a hassle."
"Wait, is it possible to transfer tickets? I'll pay 1000."
"Don't be scalpers, please. I'm just a poor student and can't afford that much. I can only offer 1100."
"You don't seem that poor either. How about this - I'll have my little cat do a back flip for you? Anyone selling at face value?"
"Not selling, not selling. I finally managed to snag a ticket, so I want to fully experience the food over there."
"Looking forward to real reviews and feedback."
"Lurking for updates."
More people kept repeatedly trying to persuade others to transfer their tickets.
Finally, Shen Wei came out and clarified that all 500 tickets had been registered within five minutes.
This meant the tickets were now tied to real identities and could no longer be transferred.
Those who managed to grab tickets this time were all fans from her live stream.
In a luxurious mansion, a beautiful lady was patting her chest, feeling the thrill.
For someone of her privileged background, she never had to scramble for things like Black Friday deals, concert tickets, or new seasonal luxury items, which brands would send her.
This was her first time competing for tickets.
Her brand new phone didn't freeze, allowing her to secure a ticket immediately. After registering her info, she realized that others hadn't been able to grab tickets.
A wave of joy, nervousness, and satisfaction washed over her, leaving her in a daze for a while.
The beautiful lady's two children were already in elementary school.
There were no toddlers at home who needed to attend kindergarten.
But she was a fan of Shen Wei's Starry Sky Kindergarten live stream, so she insisted on experiencing this event.
She then instructed her butler, "Iron a set of sportswear for me to wear this Saturday."
"Yes, madam!" he respectfully replied.
The ticketing software this time was personally developed by He Lingfeng. Even at peak demand with 100,000 people rushing in simultaneously, it didn't crash - truly impressive.
Shen Wei heaped praise upon He Lingfeng, befitting of a system-certified genius. He was just too amazing.
The little protagonist's face turned bright red from the compliments.
"If you need anything else, I can develop it for you next time," said the young boy, new to the world of computer science and finding everything novel, with much still to learn.
Shen Wei pinched the little villain's cheeks, finding him utterly adorable.
The 500 ticket holders were all added by the customer service team to new WeChat groups.
The group names ranged from Kindergarten Class 1 to Class 10.
50 people per class.
Each with a teacher and a teaching assistant assigned.
They then received the class schedules, menus, and other details.
Everything was meticulously prepared.
The group members went crazy praising Shen Wei, Teacher Tang, and the others.
They kept @'ing her in the group.
"Finally meeting you in person!"
"I'm grinning like an idiot in my dorm room, and my roommates are asking what's going on."
"I can go to kindergarten now."
"The one above said what I've always wanted to say. A bit cringeworthy, but that's how I feel too."
Shen Wei asked if everyone wanted her to do a live stream, clarifying that it wasn't mandatory, and would depend on their preference. If more than 30% objected, she wouldn't do it.
After all, this was meant to be a relaxing experience, and not everyone might want to be on camera.
But the consensus was unanimous.
"Do it, do it! We have to live stream so everyone can see I got a ticket."
"You're shameless enough, I like that!"
"Agree to live stream."
"Agree plus one."
"Agree plus two."
Shen Wei shared the supplementary live stream agreement, which everyone confirmed with customer service.
There really weren't enough staff available at the moment, so the AI system would temporarily handle customer service duties.
As the most advanced AI, it could easily handle answering questions from 500 people simultaneously.
Once everything was settled, Shen Wei said, "See you all at 8 PM this Saturday." She then shared the address of the new campus in the city center.
The fans who secured tickets either chatted in the class WeChat groups or couldn't resist boasting on the short video platform.
"As an adult, being able to go back to kindergarten is like a dream come true. Though I can't be reborn, just experiencing it is incredibly novel."
"What does it feel like to be treated like a baby? My heart is pounding. I feel all soft and mushy already."
"Soft and mushy literature? I didn't even get a ticket, and now you're rubbing it in. Don't go too far!"
Everyone was furious, but soon after, Shen Wei shared another video: "There will be a live stream tomorrow, with ten windows open. You can choose to join Classes 1 through 10."
The fans went from disappointment to elation: "Ahh, great!"
Even if they couldn't be there in person, virtually touring the kindergarten was still appealing.
"I knew Shen Wei wouldn't leave us hanging."
"A live stream works too! I want to see what this kindergarten flash mob is all about."
For this event, Shen Wei had ten windows open on one client, made possible by the system's support and some code written by He Lingfeng.
As a web celebrity, Shen Wei had a dedicated short video platform customer service team and had applied for special authorization. The platform quickly granted it.
It was just an online live stream, but having ten windows open on a single port was a first, nearing the scale of a video platform.
This was a new experiment for the short video platform as well.
On that Saturday, those with tickets arrived early at the address shared in the group.
But they were left stunned upon arrival - when did this abandoned construction site in the city center turn into the new Starry Sky Kindergarten campus?
I used to pass by this place often. Such a prime location had been lying idle for so many years, a veritable landmark building in the city.
Little did I expect that in just two months without keeping an eye on it, this place has been transformed into something completely new.
The layout is identical to that of the Starry Sky Kindergarten. Today's visitors are all fans from the livestream.
At a glance, you can tell they even have a small vegetable garden outside, just like a kindergarten.
The color scheme matches that of a kindergarten as well.
Shen Wei leads the staff from the Starry Sky Kindergarten to welcome them here, except for those working in the kitchen.
Everyone already knows which class they belong to in advance. They go and find their "kindergarten teacher" one by one. At this moment, reliving their kindergarten days, they finally get a real sense of it.
