Chapter 9

"Damn, what a godly book!"

"This is really a godly book. I was just reading for fun and to learn about the two hottest books, but it actually made me a person with special abilities?"

...

Ye Shuihan's real name is Wang Shiliang, who works in the entertainment and film industry. Although he is far from being at the forefront domestically, his company in Donghai City is quite well-known, and he has several stars under his management.

The original Mr. Wang had no interest in the online literature industry and was more involved in the film and television circles. However, in recent years, various books have become increasingly popular, with game adaptations dominating the gaming industry and TV series or web dramas based on these books also becoming more and more popular.

One by one, TV series adapted from online literature have made many stars famous, elevating them from third-tier to top-tier celebrities or leading actresses, and even reviving the careers of once-forgotten child stars.

Because of this popularity, many in the film and television industry, including Mr. Wang, have taken notice of the online literature platform Qishang.

After paying some attention, Mr. Wang was naturally informed by his subordinates about the recent hot topic. Initially, he approached it with a casual attitude, treating it as gossip. However, he ended up becoming genuinely curious about the two books. He started with the fantasy novel "Ugly God," and even though Mr. Wang usually didn't like or read fantasy novels, he found himself thoroughly engrossed. He admitted that the ugliness described in the book was indeed powerful.

When he moved on to "I'm Not Joking," he frowned and almost closed the book after the first chapter. But the PS content at the end of the chapter piqued his curiosity, leading him to the work-related section.

Then it exploded.

Looking at the burn marks in his office and recalling the strange ability to control fire, which made him feel like a god of fire, Mr. Wang was still in awe and excitement, his scalp tingling and his body trembling.

He finally understood the concept and significance of a "godly book."

Compared to such a godly book, ordinary commercial godly books were nothing.

He swore that Wang Dashazi was definitely not the author's real-life friend. He must be someone similar to him, right? Of course, Mr. Wang didn't have HIV and didn't use this to remake his life, but after experiencing the power of controlling fire, he understood how incredible it was.

Even after being exposed to many online novels, with a strong heart, he still felt his soul tremble.

Just by looking at a combination of large numbers on a computer screen, he could gain the power to control fire for a few minutes?

With Wang Dashazi's precedent, Mr. Wang naturally took the initiative. This was a god-like power, and he wouldn't be foolish enough to publicize it. Even if he did, who would believe him?

He was sure that not everyone could do this; it was a rare opportunity for a select few.

After experimenting, Mr. Wang had his company employees read the book, but none of them had any reaction. Strangely, ordinary employees couldn't see any content in the work-related section, only a blank page with a single period.

They couldn't even see the initial complex combination of large numbers, let alone the hidden "fire" character.

Even when Mr. Wang opened the book on his computer, he could still see the number combination, but he couldn't trigger the fire power again. Others still saw only a period, with the rest of the page blank.

If more people had a reaction, how could the book review section be filled with curses? Apart from Wang Dashazi, almost no one else came forward to confirm it?

"Gods, this is the golden leg to cling to, I must hold on tightly."

Mr. Wang was somewhat superstitious, and in the entertainment industry, it was common to seek masters, change names, and get fortune-told. Some people, despite having good looks and acting skills, remained obscure until they changed their names and quickly became famous nationwide. He had seen this happen more than once, and after encountering it so many times, he started to believe in it. But compared to this?

A million Qishang coins and a hundred thousand RMB as a reward were just a drop in the bucket. As long as the author remembered him and left an impression, it was worth it.

...

In the book review section of "I'm Not Joking."

Seeing the book reviews that had once again gone off-topic, with a new wave of rich patrons and leg-clingers dominating, and the appearance of a third million-alliance member, as well as Ye Shuihan's reward message, which also asked for the author's contact information, Tang Zhun found it quite peculiar.

It wasn't scientific. He knew that the book "Joke" had gained a lot of attention due to its rising fame and various trends. With so many people in the country, could there be ten thousand readers? Don't be ridiculous. There are already more than ten thousand authors nationwide, let alone readers.

He was prepared for the appearance of a second genius who could sense the book.

But the second one was also a rich patron? That wasn't scientific.

"Maybe not. Perhaps Ye Shuihan isn't the second one. The second one might have already appeared, but as an ordinary person, they couldn't afford such a large reward even if they experienced it."

"If they posted a regular book review, it would definitely be drowned out by the flood of comments and ignored."

"It seems I need to leave a contact method and create a group?"

...

After much thought, Tang Zhun added Ye Shuihan's QQ number.

"Author, Author, I'm Ye Shuihan. In real life, I'm Wang Shiliang from Guangyu Film Company in Donghai City, and I have several stars under my management, including some well-known ones..."

"Author, I'm just reporting in. If you need anything in the future, just let me know, just let me know. By the way, that 'Ugly God' is so black to you, this is definitely a profit-driven smear campaign. There are many such cases in the industry. Do you want me to deal with him?"

"This is a disgrace to you, a death wish."

...

As soon as he added Wang Shiliang's QQ number, a series of messages came through, leaving Tang Zhun speechless and at a loss for words.

Did these editors, authors, and readers always start with such an attitude?

He wasn't used to it.

In his previous life, Tang Zhun was 30 years old and a complete failure. He graduated from an ordinary university, changed jobs many times, and was even fired at the age of 30. His girlfriend, who was about to marry him, broke up with him a month before his unemployment.

It wasn't because his girlfriend thought he was a failure, but because he had made a mistake. After drinking too much, he was led by a colleague and impulsively did something wrong, which couldn't be salvaged.

His father also had health issues and needed money for surgery, adding to his troubles. In a state of deep despair, he wandered the streets of a big city late at night, drinking, and was eventually struck by the memories of a great literary figure, which exploded in his brain.

In this life, his father wasn't a small supermarket owner but a powerful official. This Tang Zhun's life was relatively smooth, and when he returned to his hometown in Dongyue Province, he was greeted with smiles and friendliness on the streets.

But those were the memories of his original self.

With so many readers approaching him like this, he felt a bit disoriented.

"Please don't reward anymore."

Rubbing his forehead, Tang Zhun sent a simple message to Wang Shiliang. Just as he finished, Wang Dashazi's message window popped up again.

"Author, someone rewarded? Could it be..."

"Boss, my family is rich. If you say a word, I can reward more. I'll follow your lead."

...

Tang Zhun replied that it wasn't necessary and ignored Wang Dashazi. He always found Wang Dashazi's username a bit strange, but he didn't know that Wang Dashazi had chosen it after being diagnosed with HIV, regretting his past life and feeling like a fool for spending money recklessly and contracting HIV.

Putting that aside, Tang Zhun felt that the rewards were already enough, and more would make his father suspicious.

(PS: Happy Valentine's Day! Hmm, how many sheets will be trampled today?)
