It is 粉絲 (traditional) or 粉丝 (simplified), pronounced 'fen3 si1', an English loanword 'fans'. It is still pronounced fen3 si1 (rather than fen3) for just one fan.

Thank you very much, Keith. I had always thought that "fan" in Mandarin was "mi" (2). Thanks to you, Helen, and Misha, I have learned that young Chinese are now using many English words. I think that this is occurring in other languages, too.
