Chapter 1625: Chapter 1305: Global Live Writing Event
The internet is miraculous.
What’s miraculous is that every kind of opinion has its supporters.
Even if some viewpoints are clearly absurd, even incomprehensible.
What’s more miraculous is:
A viewpoint that everyone criticized yesterday is now being supported and even has a considerable following today when mentioned again?
Yes.
On the third day, several prominent bloggers online expressed their agreement with Song Fang’s viewpoint.
"At worst, just check it out."
Many said in a seemingly nonchalant tone: "A clear conscience fears not the slanting shadow, right?"
Even some authors said:
"I believe in Teacher Chu Kuang. It doesn’t hurt to step forward and show us if his talent is genuine; industry people can recognize it."
Another author said:
"Actually, I don’t doubt Teacher Chu Kuang’s talent; I’m just curious about how he manages his energy so well."
These are peers.
Some are instigating, some are making sarcastic remarks, some are supporting, and some are just watching the drama unfold.
Eventually, even the publishing industry has people talking discreetly: "This Chu Kuang is practically a master of time management, writing a book a month, sometimes a book in a few days. Is there nothing in life that can slightly affect his creative state?"
Rumble!
The public opinion spirals out of control.
The voice of the Skepticist grows louder day by day, even though previous doubts were treated as jokes.
Gradually.
A storm begins to form.
Such discussions are prevalent even among students, colleagues, and friends:
"Do you think Chu Kuang is really a product of team operation?"
"I think so."
"You’re talking nonsense!"
This question really tests friendships.
Because Chu Kuang has so many fans, it might even lead to a fallout between friends.
As for Lin Yuan, the person involved, it’s actually not that bad, because the only ones who can reach Chu Kuang, besides family, are Jin Mu and the chairman —
As long as he stays offline.
Lin Yuan naturally still goes online.
However, looking at the online dynamics, it does indeed feel like dark clouds are looming over the city.
Originally planning to respond directly, Lin Yuan suddenly had a new idea: Can’t this matter be resolved once and for all?
To be honest.
Lin Yuan doesn’t want to experience this overwhelming public pressure a second time; it’s uncomfortable.
Takes out his phone.
Lin Yuan calls Jin Mu.
"I just saw a particularly interesting comment suggesting locking me in a small dark room to write; if I can write, I win, if not, there’s a problem."
"You mean a global live broadcast, right? Impossible."
Jin Mu sighed: "Even if you could write something under the eyes of billions during a global live broadcast, they’d still claim you memorized the script beforehand."
"What would prove I didn’t memorize it beforehand?"
"That’s too difficult."
"It’s interesting because it’s difficult, but such a thing should only happen once. I need a real once-and-for-all solution, for Chu Kuang, for Xian Yu, or for Shadow."
"What do you want to do?"
"Contact the Literature and Art Association; I want arbitration."
Today they say Chu Kuang has a ghostwriter, tomorrow they’ll say Xian Yu has one, the day after they’ll say Shadow uses an art double; Lin Yuan isn’t surprised by such speculation, nor does he blame the netizens.
His various pseudonyms’ works are indeed a mix of different teachers’ works from Earth.
If there’s a way to put an end to the doubts permanently, it might only rely on extraordinary measures; otherwise, it’s really hard to clear things up.
Or...
Use some newly produced functional potion from the System, then perform in front of the whole world?
Takes a deep breath.
Lin Yuan made up his mind.
That night.
In the eye of the storm, Chu Kuang updates his latest blog: [I have officially applied for arbitration; in three days, I will write live in front of the world with the Literature and Art Association as witnesses.]
The System says:
Lin Yuan is a Cultural Ambassador for the planet.
But Lin Yuan feels he’s still a liar.
Next, he’s going to weave a huge lie that makes the world dance with it.
...
So-called arbitration is a service provided by the Literature and Art Association for major art fields on Blue Star, usually dealing with some copyright issues, or some disputes where each party claims to be right, especially for major artists, arbitration is sometimes necessary.
This matter with Chu Kuang is indeed suitable for official arbitration.
In fact, this matter has long drawn the close attention of the Literature and Art Association, and the official approval came two hours after the arbitration application.
However, public response was even faster than official responses.
Indeed.
Once Chu Kuang updated his blog, netizens across continents exploded, covering the internet like a nuclear bomb!
Shock!
Surprise!
Nervousness!
Anticipation!
Suspicion!
Different people harbored different emotions, and some were so excited they almost smashed their keyboards. This news was simply too crazy!
"Holy shit!!"
"A global live broadcast!?"
"Writing on the spot!?"
"Is Chu Kuang implying that three days later, he’s going to write a novel in front of the world audience!!???"
"Oh my god!!"
"He’s really doing it, I’m stunned. Is he playing it this big?"
"There were people who previously coaxed the old rascal to write publicly in the blog comments, but we all thought it was too far-fetched. Now it seems this old rascal is really going to do it. What can he write? What if he’s out of ideas and not in the mood, wouldn’t that make things even more unclear..."
"So, is he finally going to show his face?"
"He’s been mysterious for so many years. I’ve always wanted to know what the old rascal really looks like, hahaha. Suddenly, it feels like Ling Kong wasn’t entirely useless, at least he really flushed out the old rascal!"
"Heh, Chu Kuang the old rascal doesn’t exist."
"This scenario probably involves hiring a handsome guy to memorize the script in advance, and then creating a seemingly real god, enough showboating."
"Daring to fool the arbitration, better beware of global banishment."
"The person upstairs is acting like a pure fool. Actively applying for arbitration is seen by you as fooling the arbitration. According to you, nothing is okay, how do you propose to prove it, open up his belly to show you?"
"Support the old rascal!!"
"I absolutely love his novels. I just knew he couldn’t hide backstage forever. I’ve waited for this day for so many years!"
"Aah!"
"Going crazy!"
Whether supporting or questioning.
As Chu Kuang announced that he would live broadcast his writing under the global live broadcast, excitement and exhilaration became the main theme of every emotion, and people’s hearts were almost flying to the live broadcast site three days later!
Media!
Trending searches!
Advertising square!
Moments, and so on!
Within less than half an hour after Chu Kuang’s blog announcement, related news reports and information push notifications could be seen everywhere globally, all about Chu Kuang’s live writing global broadcast in three days!
——————
Starlight Entertainment.
Chairman Li Songhua looked at Lin Yuan worriedly: "Isn’t this too risky, writing a book in front of a global audience? What if you’re not in the mood? Forcing it might affect the quality, right? Or do you actually have a draft in mind, and this is just a performance, with form outweighing the meaning?"
A global live writing.
It does sound a bit daunting.
But how exactly it will be written, it’s hard to say.
If it’s just about writing a few thousand words in a few hours, then it may just be the start of a novel. The actual content of the work can’t be seen much, and the exciting parts won’t get the chance to be shown, then it completely becomes formalism.
"It’s not formalism."
Lin Yuan understood what Li Songhua meant: "I will ensure that the meaning of this event far exceeds the form."
"Actually, it could be simpler."
Li Songhua still didn’t understand how Lin Yuan would break the situation. At least his mortal mind couldn’t figure it out, but there was nothing to fear:
"You are Xian Yu, which in itself is already persuasive."
Xian Yu has always had the image of a polymath, so if Chu Kuang is also one of this Fish’s avatars, then it’s just a matter of being more of a genius on top of already being one.
In other words:
Lin Yuan could simply do nothing, just step out with his current face and say Chu Kuang is his alias, and that would be enough.
Ling Kong and Song Fang’s doubts would be dispelled.
"I feel it’s not enough."
Lin Yuan deeply understood the complexity of the human mind.
Once the seeds of doubt are sown, they will rapidly sprout.
Xian Yu can certainly save the day forcibly, but that relies on Xian Yu’s influence to forcibly suppress the skepticism.
People might not mention it in the future, but it doesn’t mean there will be no doubts in their hearts. These doubts can eventually become rumors, or even secrets in some people’s minds, not to be revealed.
Furthermore, this is Chu Kuang’s problem to deal with.
So Chu Kuang has to solve the problem himself.
Just like when the Prince of Lanling encountered various controversies, even when Lin Yuan removed his mask, all problems could be easily resolved.
But Lin Yuan still insisted on using the Prince of Lanling’s identity to go to the final stage of the competition, winning The Masked Singer’s championship, proving he was qualified to judge other singers, although back then it was Prince of Lanling under attack, whereas now it’s Chu Kuang facing the crisis.
The situation back then mirrors the moment now.
And for Lin Yuan, the live broadcast three days later is Chu Kuang’s own "unveiling ceremony."
"Let’s just go with your plan."
Li Songhua patted Lin Yuan’s shoulder.
Lin Yuan said, "Chairman, I need you to do me a favor."
"Go ahead."
"Invite Ling Kong and Song Fang to the onsite event three days from now."
"Are you serious?"
"I have a bit of a knack for variety shows. I know that the plot development in this way is what the public enjoys, just not sure if they’re willing to attend."
"They will definitely come."
Li Songhua took a deep breath and walked out of the room.
The secretary, who had been waiting outside, quickly whispered, "There are dozens of major media outlets outside wanting to interview Teacher Admirable Fish..."
Li Songhua’s gaze turned cold gradually: "No one is allowed to disturb Xian Yu these days. Not even if the Heavenly Father himself showed up."
"But some people... we can’t afford to offend..."
"If anyone’s unhappy, they can come at me, Li Songhua. Do they truly think I’m a pushover?"
Li Songhua certainly knew why so many people sought out Xian Yu.
Their aim was no more than an exclusive interview, to ask some questions about Chu Kuang.
Xian Yu would never do such an interview, so Li Songhua had to block the masses for him.
"Today, it’s my turn to be your wall."
Li Songhua meant to create a quiet space between Lin Yuan and the outside world, allowing him to prepare for the global live broadcast in peace three days later.
