Chapter 10 Regrouping
Shuai Kongyiqi: "How long is this foreigner going to keep babbling on here?"
Ying Shenglong: "Indeed, indeed."
The Thinker: "What foreigner? This 'god' is 'Eric Freud'! Do you know how amazing he is?"
Having just finished carrying a bar at the construction site: "Uh, you're really not familiar with this, are you?"
tan90°: "I object, as the thinker said, he is a great man with great achievements in psychology, sociology and education."
Having just finished carrying heavy loads at the construction site: "Since Brother Tan says it's awesome, then it really is awesome."
tan90°: "...My surname isn't Tan."
Shuai Kongyiqi: "Dude, is this the point? No matter how awesome he is, I'm not here to listen to his lectures. Where's Tangtang? Where's my Tangtang?"
I think this production team is full of geniuses. It's one thing to show Chu Kong attending classes during the day, but now they're showing his lectures too.
"How about I register for the college entrance exam too?"
Ying Shenglong: "Indeed, indeed."
The Thinker: "So what do you want to do? Let the production team show Chu Kong taking a bath?"
Shuai Kongyiqi: "Isn't anything more interesting than a lecture? I'd rather he just play GG."
Having just finished lifting heavy loads at the construction site: "It's too small, the scope is too small. I think replaying the scenes of the female students and the cute teachers from the daytime would be more interesting."
Ying Shenglong: "Indeed, indeed."
The Thinker: "If we're really going to replay it, I think the part where Chu Kong deals with Li Lingchuang should be replayed."
tan90°: "Agreed. Chu Kong was able to judge Li Lingchuang's intentions in such a short time and did not escalate the conflict. His thinking was clear. He is really a good candidate for studying science."
Just finished carrying a bar at the construction site: "Don't even mention it, that part almost drove me crazy. If it were me, I would have gone up there and beaten them to a pulp."
Shuai Kongyiqi: "You got into a fight on your first day at your new school? I can't believe you came up with that. Students would definitely tell the teacher first if something like this happened."
tan90°: "I object. On the one hand, telling the teacher will escalate the conflict and bring the 'hostile' issue into the open; on the other hand, it's just using the teacher to avoid the problem. Does that mean we can always turn to the teacher for help every time we encounter trouble?"
Ying Shenglong: "Indeed, indeed."
Having just finished carrying heavy loads at the construction site: "This is such a hassle. Maybe I should call a few of my workers to meet that kid in person."
tan90°: "I object. First of all, your actions are illegal. Secondly, Li Lingchuang is clearly an actor employed by the production company and is simply doing his job."
Having just finished carrying a bar at the construction site: "Huh??? Brother Jiushi, I really thought that kid was just jealous and that's why he started this fight."
tan90°: "...My name isn't Ninety either."
Shuai Kongyiqi: "To be honest, I really can't imagine how Teacher Long, who is so small, would handle this kind of boys' fight if we were to tell the teacher. Would he have to stand on a stool?"
AA (who doesn't sell anything, just plays around): "When this topic starts, isn't there a missing voice?"
The Thinker: "Oh right, I forgot."
[System message: 'Group owner, I was wrong' has been unbanned by administrator 'Thinker']
[System message: "Group owner, I was wrong" has changed their nickname to "Teacher Long is so cute"]
Teacher Long (cute): "Everyone, this is a very serious question."
AA doesn't sell anything, just plays around: "?"
The Thinker: "?"
Teacher Long is so cute: "Teacher Long also likes figurines, and I like figurines too. Does that mean Teacher Long likes me?"
AA doesn't sell anything, just plays around: "Uh-huh."
The Thinker: "Smiling.jpg"
Teacher Long is so cute: "Group owner, I was wrong, just kidding. Where were we? Ah, right, GG, this show is really the best GG. Did you guys see it? Chu Kong's cup and bread, Ning Wantang's box of milk, are sold out on all major platforms, and the official website has already issued a restock notice."
AA doesn't sell anything, it's just for fun: "Regarding impulse buying..."
tan90°: "This show itself is the best example of a fake goggle. The contrived goggles in 'The Truman Show' are too fake."
The Thinker: "What do you think would happen if one day Chu Kong, like Truman, exposed the lies of this show?"
Having just finished lifting heavy loads at the construction site: "Who cares? All I want to know is when he'll come out of the bathroom."
-----------------
"Feed? Chu Kong? Chu Kong, are you still listening? Feed?"
Zhou Huaijin's voice seemed to come from the bottom of deep water, indistinct and distant.
Chu Kong leaned against the cold tiles, the showerhead water cascading over his head, but he couldn't feel any warmth.
He abruptly closed his eyes and pressed his forehead against the cold tiles.
Water flowed down my spine, bringing a shiver.
Isn't this just common sense?
Isn't this expected?
Isn't it easy to see?
Chu Kong questioned his own conscience.
Much later.
He used all his strength to exhale the cold air from his lungs, along with his surging emotions.
Chu Kong finally managed to regain his senses.
There was not a trace of mockery in Zhou Huaijin's tone, only a deep sense of helplessness and感慨.
He had been watching the live stream closely and knew why Chu Kong had lost his composure.
"Sorry, Teacher Zhou, I was just thinking about something." Chu Kong cleared his throat, trying to make his voice sound less disheveled.
Zhou Huaijin sighed and continued, "It's alright, child, it's not your fault."
Chu Kong stood up from the ground and picked up the razor that had fallen to the ground.
"Li Lingchuang and Teacher Long are also from the production company, right? What are their plans?" Chu Kong forced down his chaotic thoughts and asked a question he had prepared beforehand.
"Regarding Li Lingchuang, that kid was chosen by the production team as a pawn to attract your attention and bear the pressure and attention from the outside world." Zhou Huaijin sighed again, it was unclear whether he was lamenting Chu Kong or Li Lingchuang.
Chu Kong nodded; the answer wasn't hard to guess.
Zhou Huaijin continued, "As for the production company's plans, I don't know. As I just said, my purpose is to convey your script to the production company. They won't allow me to know too much, so as not to affect their plans."
However, the production company has assigned an expert from abroad to design the script for you. His name is Eric Freud, and he also gave you a speech entitled "Growing Stronger Through Scars".
I met him once; he is a very shrewd and calculating person.
But my intuition tells me he's likely to be personally involved in the script.
"Eric Floyd, I remember that." Chu Kong nodded, the icy water washing away his irritability.
"As for Ms. Long, I can tell you with certainty that she was only a minor participant, and even harbored hostility towards the production company."
Zhou Huaijin's words made Chu Kong's eyes light up. He never expected that the production team would not have assigned a deep participant to such an important position as the homeroom teacher.
"Please explain in detail."
"On the day I arrived at the school, I happened to run into Teacher Long arguing with the principal in the principal's office."
Why?
"Teacher Long believes that schools are places for teaching and nurturing students, not places for live-streaming shows."
"Why didn't the production company replace Teacher Long? Or at least give me a different class?"
"I don't know either, but I think Teacher Long is not simple."
"Unfortunately, Teacher Long is very hostile towards me. She thinks I deliberately deceived you and even sold you onto this show," Zhou Huaijin said with a wry smile.
Chu Kong thought for a moment, checked the time, and then said, "Teacher Zhou, thank you. Let's leave it at that for now. It's almost time; taking too long to shower might arouse suspicion."
"Is there anything you'd like to change in the script? I can pass it on to the production team," Zhou Huaijin asked with concern.
"Not for now, Teacher Zhou. I plan to think about it carefully," Chu Kong replied.
-----------------
After taking a shower, Chu Kong sat down at the table.
The homework wasn't heavy, and Chu Kong finished it easily in no time.
Under the gaze of all viewers in the live stream, he pulled out a notebook and fell into thought.
He did not intend to rashly exercise his power to rewrite the script.
Chu Kong and the production company are now like two sides playing a game of chess.
The difference is that while Chu Kong only needs to go through one intermediary, the massive production company can go through countless intermediaries.
Even if the production company didn't know that the person they were playing against was Chu Kong.
Even if the production company might consider rewriting the script as a small pleasure for the investors.
However, if the script is rewritten, the production company may be able to see the purpose behind these changes.
Faced with targeted deployments, Chu Kong had absolutely no confidence in dealing with them calmly.
Therefore, he must think carefully and strike decisively to defeat the enemy.
He first wrote the first paragraph on a piece of paper, and this text was seen by audiences and producers around the world.
"Find a way to make money."
After writing this sentence, Chu Kong opened his e-wallet on his phone, looked at the balance of 107, and sighed at just the right moment.
Then he put on a thoughtful expression.
Trying to resist the production company's tight net is simply a pipe dream on one's own, but who else can one rely on?
Those who participate only superficially either have opinions about the program or are not interested in it, making it difficult for them to become a helpful force.
Deeply involved participants can't help me...
Just then, Chu Kong had a sudden inspiration and discovered his blind spot.
After thinking for a moment, he wrote on the paper: "Evening in Ning."
As he wrote this, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and crossed out the two characters "Ning Wan" on the paper, replacing them with "Tang Tang".
"Build a good relationship with Tangtang"
After doing all this, Chu Kong even showed a perfectly timed, youthful smile.
Chu Kong chuckled twice and closed the notebook.
After doing all this, Chu Kong leaned over the window, looked at the lights of thousands of homes, and smiled.
But deep within those slightly narrowed, smiling eyes lies a profound sorrow.
He doesn't blame her.
He only blamed the fact that this game of "survival" used "emotion" as its pieces.
