Chapter 1627: Chapter 1306: Who Are You, Really? (Part 2)
“I’m a skeptic. Since I received an invitation, I’ll be keeping my eyes wide open.”
“A staunch supporter, Chu Kuang is a god. Tomorrow we’ll witness a divine revelation.”
Only the top-notch journalists in the media industry can receive an invitation!
And these journalists releasing the news in advance is, of course, not without a hint of showing off.
Regardless of whether Chu Kuang is real or fake, they have to admit that receiving the invitation made them feel very honored, even flattered!
The name Chu Kuang holds such a qualification and weight.
It’s not just journalists. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel fire.net
Afterwards, notable public figures from various fields like education, literature, and even the economic circle, all expressed that they received invitations.
These top figures, whether busy or not, all unanimously agreed to attend, and even went online to discuss it, including some who were usually seen as quite aloof by netizens.
It seemed they were using this way to tell everyone:
It was Chu Kuang, that old rascal, who invited me!
Of course, it wasn’t Chu Kuang inviting them personally, but it was indeed Lin Yuan’s intention to invite people with real influence.
If you’re going to make an event, you have to make it a big occasion.
Even the top-ranked literary figure posted on social media, with a picture prominently displaying a beautifully crafted invitation!
An invitation to enter the live stream site tomorrow!
The current world’s number one writer, so rarely used the words “very honored”, he too was looking forward to tomorrow!
And amidst this atmosphere…
The scheduled day for the global livestream finally arrived!
The official start time of the livestream was set for nine o’clock in the morning, with representative video websites from all continents being able to watch directly, and some websites even enabled the bullet screen feature.
Everyone began to enter.
The big shots from various fields surveyed the live site as they entered, and after looking around for a long while, they only saw a curtain in the front.
If someone sat in front of the curtain, it would just cover a face.
Someone frowned suddenly, but said nothing.
The venue began to buzz.
Ling Kong and Song Fang appeared!
The big shots from various fields at the site almost immediately recognized these two boisterous figures who had recently sparked public discussion.
Some were expressionless, some greeted with a smile, while others clearly showed a look of disdain.
These two immediately started observing the venue.
Upon discovering that the curtain could still cover a face, they got excited and started performing a comic duo act in front of the public:
Song Fang: “Broadcasting the writing of a book globally and still need to cover the face?”
Ling Kong: “Is this face something that can’t be shown?”
Song Fang: “Could it be that his face has some awful scars or birthmarks, and he’s too self-conscious to show it? If that’s the misunderstanding, then I’m really sorry.”
Someone nearby chimed in, with a tone full of disappointment: “If we can’t see the face, it’s like coming here for nothing today, it’s really meaningless.”
“Who said he won’t show his face?”
Jin Mu swaggered out. He was Chu Kuang’s agent, but not many knew him. Still, that didn’t stop him from straightening up today and putting on airs: “The teacher doesn’t like being stared at while writing. Would you like someone peering over your shoulder when you’re writing an essay?”
“So, Chu Kuang has an agent?”
“Usually, Mr. Jin Mu represents Teacher Chu Kuang in liaising with our Silver Blue Books. I’m Lu Bei, chief editor of Silver Blue.”
The chief editor of Silver Blue, Lu Bei, stepped out to confirm.
Wang Luo, who had been in the venue for some time, surrounded by many top figures but silent till now, suddenly laughed and said:
“Even you at Silver Blue Books don’t know Chu Kuang’s true identity?”
Lu Bei answered somewhat nervously.
Facing the world’s richest man, Lu Bei felt an indescribable pressure, perhaps because, over the years, he had made quite a splash thanks to Chu Kuang, but still hadn’t rubbed shoulders with the highest tier of Blue Star’s elite circles.
However, Chu Kuang’s influence is terrifying!
Just announcing today’s live writing session was enough to gather a bunch of prominent figures from all over Blue Star, where even walking out one person from here might mean a world-renowned leader from various sectors!
Feeling an urge to speak, Lu Bei couldn’t help but say: “I believe Teacher Chu Kuang couldn’t possibly be the result of a team operation.”
Not just because the company editors have had phone contact with Chu Kuang.
But because throughout these years of cooperation, there hasn’t been anything flashy in the process.
If Chu Kuang were a team-operated figure, they wouldn’t be so low-key, clearly, they could extract more benefits from Silver Blue Books.
This doesn’t fit the capitalist image!
The whole team behind Chu Kuang couldn’t possibly scorn money like dirt, right?
“Who knows what kind of role you play behind Chu Kuang, after all, with a pen name like Chu Kuang doing so well, your Silver Blue Books have always been the primary beneficiaries.”
Song Fang said with a sarcastic tone.
After saying this, Song Fang was suddenly chilled all over, discovering it was Wang Luo looking at him faintly, with a seemingly disdainful look, and he instantly became sheepish.
Song Fang felt a bit guilty.
Ling Kong, however, wasn’t feeling guilty, he glanced around, then sneered: “Today’s such an important occasion, and Teacher Admirable Fish, being such a close friend of Chu Kuang, isn’t attending. Doesn’t that strike you as odd?”
Everyone looked, indeed.
Lots of big shots had come, yet Xian Yu hadn’t appeared. This was quite unusual.
