Chapter 804 - Fearsome Fans

The camera flashes and cheers from the crowd made the red carpet seem chaotic, but in actual fact, everything was very organized. There were many bigshot celebrities attending tonight's TV awards ceremony. Some of them were veteran actors and actresses who were considered as pillars of the country's entertainment industry. They were well-respected and commanded special attention from everybody.

However, it wasn't these veteran figures who received the loudest cheers from the fans. The ones whom the fans went crazy for were the certified superstars and hottest trending celebrities this year. Most of them were from the younger generation than the veteran figures.

Included in these two categories were Jin Chonglin and Iris Long respectively. When they arrived on the red carpet together in the same car, the noise level rocketed to deafening level in an instant.

However, this didn't mean that the Black Stars were inferior to Jin Chonglin's army of fans. The Black Stars weren't a typical fan club. They were more like an organized triad group instilling an almost military-like discipline among its members. It wasn't only because of their "uniforms" that they wore whenever they attended any of their Boss Iris' events which earned them the collective nickname "The Suits". It was also because of their strict internal management.

In addition, the Black Stars had the formidable and despicable special elite troll group, the Slippers Armyone of the greatest banes on the internet, especially to those foolish enough to badmouth their Boss Iris. Unlike secretly hired water armies by other celebrities, the Slippers Army was very transparent in their defence of their Boss Iris and their offence against her critics.

Others had tried to use the existence of the Slippers Army and their despicable actions on the internet to damage Iris Long's reputation, but instead of apologizing on behalf of her fans
