Chapter 1664 - 1326: Lin Yuan’s Donation Exposed (Part 3)
Chapter 1664: Chapter 1326: Lin Yuan’s Donation Exposed (Part 3)
The song plays.
It turns out to be a song called "Enjoyed by both Refined and Vulgar."
Hearing the climax, Lin Yuan’s voice carries a lazy and casual tone: "They say quickly write a love song that can be enjoyed by both refined and vulgar..."
Jiang Kui laughed.
Haven’t you written quite a few songs that are enjoyed by both refined and vulgar?
But the line in the lyrics, "Being presentable and also homely, like the girl I’ve always been looking for," sparks the imagination.
Jiang Kui rests her chin and falls into contemplation.
A girl who is both presentable and homely, wouldn’t that be me?
After all, I can make salted egg yolk pastries.
...
Madam Haoyun sings with her niece.
"Crossing the hills..."
"Though my hair is already white..."
The more she sings.
The more Madam Haoyun feels at ease.
This is her favorite song from the new album.
Through this song, Madam Haoyun seems to understand a bit of Representative’s mindset.
That is the great freedom after seeing through everything.
Obviously, she is older than Representative.
But many times, listening to the songs sung and books written by the Representative, it feels as if he has already weathered trials and tribulations, with a maturity far beyond her own.
...
On the internet.
Different people.
Different places.
People are listening to the song.
Listening to the same album.
"A young man has his youthful arrogance, the heart like the blazing sun of ten thousand rays, overcoming innumerable obstacles, today I am the young man..."
"Little friend, do you have many questions..."
"Who says only standing in the light counts as a hero..."
"I thought if I sang with utmost sincerity, you would care a little more about me..."
"Outside the pavilion, by the ancient road..."
...
Album comment section.
Blog comment section of the person in the wheelchair.
Everywhere is full of discussions about him and the album.
"Tribute to Fish Papa."
"Forever a legend."
"He is just like these songs, perfect!"
"Entranced just by the voice."
"Clearly sneered at chasing stars, yet accidentally liked him for so many years."
"The last song ’Once I Also Thought of Ending It All’, listen to it and tears run down my face, is this real?"
"No one is inherently strong, Fish Papa must have had moments of wanting to give up too."
"Really love ’In the Name of Father’, a masterpiece!"
"Fish Papa has too many masterpieces, yet even today he still can bring surprises once in a while."
"The true masterpiece is ’Hills’."
"Who says only standing in the light counts as a hero, these lyrics really hit home."
"I love that part: Strong youth makes Blue Star strong, genius!"
"Speaking of talent, ’Farewell’ is also brilliant, listeners are in tears, from melody to lyrics, it’s truly a masterpiece."
...
Lin Yuan, Jian Yi, and Xia Fan finished eating and discreetly left Qin Continent Art Academy.
No one knew they had been there.
On the way back, Lin Yuan suddenly received a call from Jin Mu.
"Have you seen the news?"
"What?"
"Ling Kong was arrested."
"Ah?"
"Economic crimes, just got detained today, many journalists captured it and even cornered him for interviews, I’ll forward the news to you."
Hung up the call.
Lin Yuan looked at the news that Jin Mu forwarded.
The news headline was "Former Crown Prince of the Tribe, Ling Kong Arrested for Economic Crimes!"
There’s a video below.
Ling Kong is taken away by relevant authorities.
Before being taken away, some reporters blocked him, asking various questions, many related to Lin Yuan.
At first, Ling Kong didn’t want to speak.
In the end, perhaps out of frustration, Ling Kong exploded emotionally:
"Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan, can you stop mentioning this name in front of me over and over? He’s your god, not mine!
Perfect persona?
Great artist?
Heh, is he really that great?
If he’s really that great, why haven’t I seen this god save all the suffering people in the world?
Oh.
I’m morally blackmailing.
You all would surely say that.
Even if he doesn’t save the world, he could at least donate a few cents, right?
Online, some discuss how much Chu Kuang and Xian Yu earned, yet no one discusses how much he spent on charity?
I’m a common person, I like to show off, but even as a show-off, I’ve actually donated millions over the years!
What about your god?"
This was Ling Kong’s last interview.
After saying this, he was taken inside.
Who knows when he will come out again.
Yet his words indeed sparked a discussion online.
Some say Ling Kong deserved it.
Still dragging Lin Yuan into it, trying to morally blackmail.
Some say Ling Kong had a foul mouth but wasn’t entirely wrong.
Lin Yuan, being both Xian Yu and Chu Kuang, earned so much money, why didn’t he do some charity or similar?
"Aren’t celebrities supposed to do charity?"
"Whether true or not."
"Even just pretending would be fine."
"But Lin Yuan seems unwilling even to pretend."
"Tsk tsk."
"He’s already a god now."
"You dare to speak ill of a deity?"
"Watch out, his fans might come after you, calling it moral blackmail."
"He is the world’s number one superstar, his influence is unmatched."
The internet is strange.
It seems that even Lin Yuan can’t make everyone like him.
Not having done charity suddenly became a black mark, although only a few people sarcastically pointed it out, yet it still sparked a minor commotion.
But this commotion barely started before being ruthlessly extinguished.
Just as the heated interview before Ling Kong’s arrest was spreading widely.
The Blue Star Charity Association released a world-shattering announcement:
"We cannot tolerate Ling Kong’s slander of Mr. Lin Yuan regarding charity donations!
Below are all donation records from Mr. Lin Yuan from ten years ago up to today, since he started earning money at the age of nineteen, he has been continuously donating to our charity association, totaling a trillion!
Whether in his personal or organizational capacity!
This is the largest donation we have ever received!
And such selfless donations, Mr. Lin Yuan is still continuing, and with his rising income, the amounts are becoming even larger!
It’s no exaggeration to say that countless people around the world have received varying degrees of economic assistance from Mr. Lin Yuan without ever knowing it!
Yet Mr. Lin Yuan has never promoted this himself and hoped that we would not publicize it either.
As a celebrity, he actually dislikes being excessively disturbed; he is a low-key person, which is known worldwide.
But facing slander, Mr. Lin Yuan didn’t want to explain, however, we must provide an explanation!
This concerns conscience!
Why should Mr. Lin Yuan suffer such injustice!!?
We hope every netizen who followed the slander against Mr. Lin Yuan can retract their improper statements, we cannot tolerate such a good individual being wrongfully accused!"
On this day.
At this moment.
The whole world watched that enormous donation list, falling into unprecedented shock!
It detailed what amount Lin Yuan donated on which day, and where that money was used!
For instance, he has donated to build thousands of hope schools in poor areas and provided free support to countless impoverished university students, even schools unable to issue scholarships rely on his economic aid to provide students with financial support...
His money was used for drug development, making the prices of equally effective drugs more affordable...
He donated countless flat roads, allowing mountain areas to escape the hardship of crossing steep hills...
He built many hospitals, supported the elderly and disabled...
His presence was there in every disaster aid, yet while other celebrities’ donated amounts made the news, only his largest donations were kept low-key, desiring no external awareness...
After the shock!
The entire nation broke into tears!
