Tears and Drama: Female Streamer Receives “Backlash”
Recently, popular female streamer Yu Zhiqing became a hot topic of discussion on Chinese social media after her emotional live streams began to attract attention. The reason is that this streamer often “shares her negative energy.” Just in the past few months, every time Yu Zhiqing goes live, she tends to become emotional, often crying, which has raised concerns.



Known for her beauty and creativity, Yu Zhiqing has amassed nearly 3 million followers with her cosplay performances. However, in recent times, she has frequently appeared in a state of emotional distress.

Many viewers have expressed concern, suggesting that this is a genuine display of someone struggling with emotional issues. However, the rapid rise in her streaming frequency has led some to believe she is “playing the emotional card” to attract views and donations. Many people even go as far as to call it a form of “emotional manipulation” aimed at drawing sympathy from viewers.
Her “Emotional Streaming” is a Difficult Phenomenon to Understand
Despite her beauty and numerous talents, it is evident that Yu Zhiqing has her own methods for capturing the audience’s attention. However, overdoing this approach may not yield positive outcomes, and her “emotional manipulation” strategy has faced backlash.

The phenomenon of emotional streaming from Yu Zhiqing has sparked widespread debate. Social media platforms should not be the venue for someone to unload their emotional burdens uncontrollably. With the influence they wield, streamers need to understand that they are not just entertaining but also contributing to shaping the viewers’ psychological state—especially young audiences. This incident serves as a critical lesson not only for Yu Zhiqing but for the entire streaming community, as they seek to navigate the fine line between emotional engagement and responsible content creation.
