![]() They, therefore, have good reasons to be wary of anyone who try to sway them from their “turtle-ship”, whether to turn them into solos or to lure them into an entirely different fandom. c-turtles’ demonstrated strong performance in pushing these metrics has made them a target to those who wish to have usurp their consumer power. Sales numbers, votes, traffic attributed to each idol are frequently released to the public, possibly to foster competition among fans and drive these numbers further upward. Popularity in China is not only quantified (which is likely true everywhere, by marketing departments), but very visibly so. Personally, I think the international fan base of Gg and Dd, as solos and cpfs, have more chance to achieve peace than its Chinese counterparts - if they choose to want that. Most people will also assume the YiZhan content to be created by turtles. While all YiZhan content has no direct relation to Gg and Dd, removal of such content may cause an over-reaction from fans, which can, in turn, lead to accusations of poor fan management by Gg and Dd. Sweeps performed on an entire website are usually broad-based enough that no specific individuals are targeted however, the government also encourages, with financial incentives, the reporting of specific content and has set up a dedicated website for doing so. ![]() Just last month (2020 Dec), Bilibili has been explicitly named by the government for hosting questionable materials, which means it’s already under scrutiny. The movement originated in the mid 2000s, and its recent waves have been used as pretext to remove LGBT+ and BL content on line (I will eventually set up a post re: those events). ![]() If these content creators go overboard, there’s a possibility that YiZhan content may get caught in the government’s “Eradicating Pornography and Illegal Publications”(掃黃打非) movement. They are the ones who re-upload the BTS, for example, despite the repeated pleas and warnings by the “站姐”s-the superfans who take/purchase these videos-as well as the turtles to not do that. This probably contributes to the continued growth of the turtle population however, some of this content is created by non-turtles who seek viewership and have little concern over Gg and Dd’s safety.
