Gossip: Tears of Themis Fans Cause Jiefang Daily to Reroute Printing Due to Massive Demand

This might be the most bizarre 'spending' event in the ACG (Anime, Comic, and Games) community lately. A fan of 'Tears of Themis', unable to find a copy of the 'Jiefang Daily' featuring their favorite game, went straight to the publisher's office and started a proxy-buying service on social media.

Nobody expected this to turn into a full-blown shopping spree. The publisher reported that their initial stock was wiped out instantly, forcing them to issue notices that they were out of stock and eventually deciding to print 1,000 extra copies to meet the overwhelming demand.

Community reactions varied. Some netizens jokingly called it the 'cheapest official merch ever,' while others were puzzled as to why one would buy so many newspapers. Fans clarified that this was a collective effort and noted that it was actually a good thing to help boost sales for traditional media.
