HIGH FIVE YOU BROKE ASS PEOPLE

The eventful October soon passed.
Entering November, all major satellite channels had all finished broadcasting Blazing Teens, no matter how early or late they had started.
Jiangchuan Children's Channel, the first to broadcast the show, had even finished the second round and was preparing to show it for the third time, so as to drain Blazing Teens of all their potential.
As Blazing Teens came to an end, numerous networks came to Pengda Pictures, trying to get the exclusive broadcasting rights.
The three colossal video websites Penguin, YouKu, and Potato had the most abundant financial resources and they all offered Meng Lang a price that was almost too good to reject.
In the end, the exclusive online broadcasting rights of Blazing Teens went to Penguin, the seemingly most resourceful website of the three.
The final price was half a million for an episode to show it exclusively on Penguin.
That was a rich penguin!
It had never occured to Meng Lang that the exclusive online broadcast rights could be sold at such a high price, for he had never expected that Blazing Teens could be sold that way when he was shooting it.
Did Penguin have too much money to burn? Why would they purchase the exclusive online broadcasting rights for half a million for an episode of Blazing Teens, which the website's target customers wouldn't watch?
Meng Lang asked the other party that question. Since the contract had already been signed and stamped with company seals, he didn't have to worry about offending anyone with the question any more.
The person in charge of the project from Penguin only smiled and told him a shocking fact.
There were over 100 million active users on Penguin, most of whom were under 18. The viewing history of some of the users above 25 consisted of nothing but cartoons…
Hm… how interesting!
Exactly how many parents would play some cartoon on a video app for their kids just to the little ones off their back?
From this point of view, Penguin's decision of purchasing the exclusive broadcasting rights of Blazing Teens at such a high price indeed made sense.
After bidding the video websites' personnel, Meng Lang entertained some foreign friends.
…
"Meng San, please!"
Meng Lang was utterly baffled when Mr. Ishikawa gave him a 90-degree bow.
TBS wanted to introduce Blazing Teens to Japan because some vlogs made by Japanese students studying in China had sparked a frenzy of yo-yo's in their home country. Seriously?
It had even given rise to a business known as "yo-yo purchasing agent".
How incredible was that!
One had to admit that the two waves of visitors today had both shocked Meng Lang like he had never experienced before.
The exclusive broadcasting rights of Blazing Teens was sought after first and had been sold at half a million for a single episode. What happened next made his jaw go slack. A foreign TV channel wanted to broadcast Blazing Teens! For real?
Damn it!
"I must still be asleep. I'm daydreaming here."
Patting his own cheeks, Meng Lang asked his visitor from a foreign land. "Mr. Ishikawa, are you sure that TBS wants to broadcast Blazing Teens? With exclusive broadcasting rights?"
"Yes!"
Mr. Ishikawa could speak English, but had a strong accent. Blazing Teens sounded more like Blazing Chins when he said it, but apart from that, everything was fine.
"Meng San, we've done our research. Over 38% of the audience were interested in yo-yos from your country and children of my country want to be able to buy yo-yos in department stores, too…"
"So, are you reminding us that we should export yo-yos now?" thought Meng Lang.
Meng Lang was overwhelmed. After making more soap operas or crappy shows than he could count, this was the first time that he actually had to "export" a TV show. He had no idea where to begin.
How about giving the broadcast rights to TBS for free?
No, that wouldn't do!
Regardless of the amount, he had to charge TBC. Otherwise, if word got out, other people would think that TBS was only showing Blazing Teens because it was free. That wouldn't look good.
Even if he sold it to TBS for one dollar, that counted as "export", which would sound very nice when the others heard about it. The online community would be singing praise for him!
Hence, after the initial contact, Meng Lang probed with a price of one million.
"One million? No problem!"
Mr. Ishikawa replied without hesitation, so much so that Meng Lang thought that he was relieved.
Meng Lang was rendered speechless.
Had he made the price too low?
However, he had named the price and it wouldn't be appropriate to raise it again.
And frankly, Blazing Teens was not the most well-made show on earth and it was already very generous of TBS to accept that price. 
Rather than being greedy, Meng Lang decided that he would take this chance to build some rapport. It might come handy one day.
So far, TBS was the only foreign TV channel that was willing to purchase Blazing Teens and no other foreign TV channels had shown such intention.
Meng Lang decided that he would use TBS as a touchstone. If the show was received well, not only would he have a better relationship with TBS, but other foreign TV channels might be interested when they saw the great response from the audience.
"Don't worry about the dubbing. We'll take care of it!" Mr. Ishikawa had gotten what he wanted for the trip and he followed the local custom, offering to buy Meng Lang dinner.
It was difficult to turn down such a kind offer and Meng Lang was more than happy to oblige.
The two of them chatted casually about Blazing Teens in a hotpot restaurant.
TBS was going to dub the entire series and invite a popular girl band to sing its Japanese theme song known as "Teenager".
Meng Lang supported their plan and wished Blazing Teens all the best, earning TBS more advertisement revenue!
"I'm sure we will!"
Mr. Ishikawa had had a little more to drink and his cheeks were flushed. "Our kids have been brainwashed by Otaku-oriented animations. What they need are heros! Yoyoman is a great choice…"
What the hell is a Yoyoman?
Sipping his beer, Meng Lang suddenly understood why a Japanese TV channel was the first foreign channel to purchase Blazing Teens.
Rather than the yo-yos, they preferred the hot-headed teenage passion about Blazing Teens.
These people were hopeless!
…
By the time Meng Lang got back home, it was eight in the evening.
His parents were watching TV on the sofa and their Siberian Husky was sitting innocently on the side with a carton box over its head.
"What's going on? What's that carton box doing?"
Talking off his shoes, Meng Lang went to the sofa to take the box off the Husky's head.
Mr. Old Meng pursed his lips. "We have to send the dog away. I didn't walk it for one day and it bit a hole in our cupboard. I found a carton box to cover its head. This way, it won't bite anything."
"That won't work. The stupid dog may look well-behaved now. As soon as you look away, it will throw the box off with a few sways of its head. It'll go back to tearing the furniture apart without hesitation…"
After taking a can of coke from the fridge, Meng Lang turned to ask about the factory.
Mr. Old Meng was very proud at the mention of the factory. He had "I'm the one who makes the most money in this household" written all over his face.
After showing off the factory's business, Mr. Old Meng suddenly asked, "How's the shooting of Balala the Fairies going? I heard you changed the actress for your leading role?"
"Yes. We did!" 


Meng Lang wakes up in a parallel universe as a fresh graduate only to realize that Pengda Toy Factory—his family business—is on the verge of bankruptcy. So, he decides to do what he does best (in his previous life) to save the day—making TV shows.
Apparently, this alternative reality where piracy has been annihilated can be a paradise for spin-off merchandise, but no production company has made good used of this opportunity until Meng Lang shows up.
Blazing Teens, the first feature show Meng Lang directs ("borrowed" from his original universe, to be more precise) introduces yo-yos to this world for the first time. Once he realizes how profitable it is to sell spin-off toys, he becomes an expert in it.
Balala the Fairies, Explosive Boys, Kamen Rider… Meng Lang is determined to become “King of feature shows” in this world. Although, to the critics, he is nothing but a toy vender…

Sunday morning, Seira was looking up for a job online through websites and somehow stumbled upon on a good offer. The pay was good but it required the employee to move in. Aside from that, all living expenses were free so it wasn't half bad, plus thinking that she didn't have to worry about rent made her feel relieved. Not just that it would lessen her burden, she could focus a lot better towards paying the debt her father left for her. She took her phone and dialed the number that was provided on the job information.
It took a couple of rings before the other party picked up the call.
"Hello, who is this?" A man's voice went through the other line.
"Good morning po. This is Seira Madriaga, I have seen the job application online and called if the offer is still available."
"Ah! I see. I'll hold the call for a sec, can you wait?"
"Yes, I'll wait." Seira answered brightly.
The call was put on hold for a while before the other party reconnected once again.
"Hello miss Madriaga? Do you have a pen and paper with you? I'm a bit busy so I'll tell you the details, I'd like you to jot it down."
"Yes sir! Please go ahead."
9th - 21st Street, Primdale, City A. Maiko Yu. 634xxxxxx07.
"I already told your employer. When would you like to start?" He asked after giving her the address and other details.
"I'll start today! Thank you." Seira exclaimed.
"Alright."
Dali dali naman siyang nagligpit ng gamit at umalis ng computer shop. She went back to her apartment and tidied her things in a swift. Fortunately, she didn't have a lot of things so it only took her half an hour in packing everything up. Before leaving, she went to tell the landlord and gave back the keys.
"City A huh? Medyo malalayo ako sa school but it should be fine. Pamasahe at school fees nalang din naman yung po-problemahin ko." She said to herself and got on the bus to City A.
Half an hour later she arrived at Primdale. She was dragging along her suitcase and the note she jotted down earlier on her other hand. After looking for quite a while, she came face to face on a modern two-story black and white house that was neither too big nor too small. It had a black steel bar gate and a furnished wooden slob on one of the pillars that said "Yu Residence".
"Ito na ata yun."
The gate was open so she let herself in and rang the intercom outside the main door. She did it at least three times before someone unlocked the door.
She was quite nervous but toughened herself up and entered the doorway.
"I'm coming in."
A young man who was half-naked and only had a towel wrapped around his lower half came into her view. His silky hair was very long that it reached his waist and was dripping wet. He just got out from the shower as he was busy drying his hair with another towel at hand.
Seira's eyes scanned the young man's face.
He had a pair of cold yet beautiful orbs. Attractive straight-edged nose and a chiseled jawline. His lips were red and were slightly agape. But what caught her eyes was the mole underneath each of his eyes. They completely look symmetrical and made his face even more captivating.
Her eyes then traveled downwards.
He was over six feet tall and had a defined body. Not bulky, just right. His v-line was slightly seen from his wrapped up lower half.
Upon realizing that she was staring too much and shouldn't be intruding at the wrong time, her heels automatically spun around to avoid visual contact.
Her face became flushed and her eyes widened in embarrassment.
"Sorry! Wala akong nakita, swear!"
"Right, after staring for quite some time. You are?" Tanong nito sa kanya with a slight smirk.
"Seira Madriaga. I'm looking for Maiko Yu po, ako po yung bagong katulong." She managed to croak after hearing his remark.
"You're young. Akala ko he'll send someone older na experiensado." He stated, not even bothering to mask his doubt towards her.
"Rest assured po, I know my way around chores. Is sir Maiko Yu home po ba?" She asked.
Hindi naman yata siya yung may-ari ng bahay. Tsaka he's too young to be an accomplished novelist. The employer must be someone a bit older. A middle-aged man perhaps.
A light chuckle came out from his lips.
"I am Maiko Yu."

Seira Madriaga,  a 19-year-old freshman university student who tries her best to lead a normal life despite being a scapegoat for his father's debts. Unfortunately, one rainy evening her supposedly normal life took a huge toll on her when her father's sudden disappearance left her with half a million in debt. Leaving her with no other choice but to seek a job to pay off what was left behind by her irresponsible father. Upon job hunting,  she came across a novelist who was looking for a live-in housekeeper. With all living expenses free and well-offered salary, she took the offer without having second thoughts. Just when she thought that her life would return to its normal pace, she found out that her employer was a fine young 26-year-old man who happens to be a cold-hearted and emotionless person. Will she be able to lead a normal life while living under his wing?

The Gap Between Us (Revamp, 2020) by saikii

Disclaimer : This novel is written in taglish.

Inspired by Tsubaki-chou Lonely Planet.

It was late at night, it was cold, very cold outside.
A young man sitting on a chair in his room in front of his computer looked through the closed window at the falling snow with half open eyes
"Another snowy day, fortunately for me, it is weekend, a cup of hot cocoa in hand and no work to do, which means I am free to do what I want, nothing beats these warm and relaxing moments"
The young man took a sip from the cup as he looked at the computer screen in front of him.
He was browsing some websites for reviews to decide which movie to watch, he got a few titles in mind but couldn't make a decision which to watch first, till his eyes landed on a certain comment
"Superman is the worst of the worst, a stupid jerk that thinks he is the best one out there, he is an idiot, an idiot I say, foolish, barbaric, brainless …"
The young man skipped the comment, he didn't feel like continuing to read that comment, thus skipped it to read another one
"Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! a stupid line fitting a stupid person, man of steel they call him, more like man of failure, an idiot by all means, a weak feeble little man that can't even get a date…"
The young man again skipped another comment as it seemed ridiculous to read it any further, thus skipped it to another
"A looser, he is nothing but a looser, all brawn and no brain, a stupid buffoon that is what superman is, a looser and nothing but a piece of garbage that shouldn't exist, a superfluous creature that…"
The young man was surprised reading the comments, the person who wrote them, seemed like they hated the superman character a lot, the comments sometimes ridiculous and sometimes childish but always offensive and they were getting worse and worse the more the young man read, and to make things more strange the person who wrote all those hate comments was one and probably the same person as they didn't stop there but wrote a lot more on other websites too, any website that allowed comments on DC movies, the same person would be there to write something, and every time they wrote a comment, it would be a hate comment, cursing and ridiculing the superman character, not the actor, neither the voice actor nor the movie but the character.
"What is wrong with this person? Why does he keep doing this? Why is no one saying anything to him?" the young man furrowed his brows as he read more than thirty hate comments and there were lots and lots more that he either skipped or didn't see them, all of them posted by the same person.
"Mr Mxy" the youth repeated the nickname of the person responsible of all the hate comments he read.
The young man wasn't a stranger to the Dc universe and lots of its characters, he was a fan to say the least.
"Choosing that for a nickname and writing things like that on all of those websites, is that guy alright in the head? I don't think he is just acting or joking, those comments are offensive no matter how I look at them"
The young man held his head as he pondered
"There are lots of people obsessed with comics and super hero movies, and when it came to DC, probably the most known characters are superman, batman, flash, wonder woman, cyborg and green lantern… fans would debate over them like, who is better than who? or what makes this super hero special than the others? And sometimes which actor portrayed the super hero's character better, etc…
Some like to dress up like their favorite characters in certain events like the anime conventions, some geeks however do take their 'enthusiasm' to the max and causing problems in lots of situations whether online or in real life, could this Mr Mxy be one of those geeks? if so why is he acting like superman killed his father or something, what is he going to such lengths to ruin a fictional character's image for? Perhaps, he is trying to make a point? But the comments are nothing but hatred with no apparent reason in them, is he sane?"
The young man was baffled by the comments of this Mr Mxy, he thought the guy might be joking or playing some sort of weird prank, after all, lots of people use the internet and some of those people are weirdos, but even so, shouldn't the moderators do something about those comments? And the stranger thing was, why no one said anything to this Mr Mxy? The young man was full of questions, in a sense, he was curious.
The young man cracked his knuckles, took another sip of his hot cocoa and started typing, he didn't like the fact that no one said anything to this Mr Mxy the most, he thought that he should tell him a piece of his mind otherwise he won't be able to choose any of the movies he wanted to see nor have a good night sleep later, because he would be thinking about why no one said anything to this Mr Mxy, the young man was somewhat a bit of a perfectionist or rather, psychologists might say that his personality is suffering a bit from an obsessive compulsive disorder.
"What is your problem with superman? ten websites! I browsed ten websites so far and in all of them you keep badmouthing superman, why are acting like an evil little imp? Is it because of that nickname? Well, guess what? You are a disgrace, you must be rejected by everyone because of that stupid mouth of yours, shame on you…"
Writing thoughts, the young man felt satisfied, now that he said what he had in mind, he can finally go back and decide what movie to watch.
[You like superman eh?]
"What?" the young man jumped from his seat at the sudden voice he heard
"Who is there?" the young man startled, he shouted as he looked around 
"Where are you hiding? Show yourself!" the young man didn't seem afraid 
[Bravo! Normally people would panic, but you want me to show myself? Haha, well alright then] the voice again said
Assuming what seemed like a defensive pose, the young man kept looking around, to tell the truth he was somehow thinking he might be delusional, after all he was tired a lot but wanted to take the chance to watch a movie or two since he might not find the chance some other day later, he thought that maybe he should be asleep right now or maybe he did fall asleep and he didn't realize it till now?
The young man was confused and lost in thought as he kept looking left and right in that closed room however his wait didn't last for long, in fact it was only a moment or few seconds as a figure suddenly started to take shape in front of him out of nowhere.
The young man opened his eyes wide as the figure quickly turned into a short man that was a little bit over one meter tall, one would mistake him for a child if it weren't for his face and attire, a purple suit and big shiny black shoes, a childish playful expression on his face as his big forehead was overshadowed by the a big purple top hat, that short man kept smiling as his big eyes were gazing at the young man.
"Greeting earthling of this dimension, you can call me Mister Mxyzptlk or Mr Mxy or any of the names you know me by as in those works of 'fiction' in this world, the ones you people call 'action comics', I am a fifth-dimension imp with powers beyond your wildest imaginations, but I assume no introductions are needed, right?" the short man said as he bowed like a gentleman.
The young man didn't respond as he was somewhat shocked by what he heard and seeing.
"So? You like superman eh? Let us play a game, shall we?" Mr Mxy said
"You dared to oppose me, a human with no powers like you dared to say that to me and for WHAT? FOR THAT PIECE OF TRASH CALLED SUPERMAN" Mr Mxy's tone suddenly turned serious, somewhat grim and scary as he slowly flew towards the young man that looked as if he was petrified
"Nevertheless, I like being fair, so I will give you chance to try and prove me wrong, not that I expect you to be able to do anything but… you like superman, right?" Mr Mxy made a scary expression at that moment as he pointed and with a light move, he hit the young man on his head, not giving him any chance to say a word nor wait for him to understand what just happened 
"Remember, no coming back unless you prove me wrong, bye~" Mr Mxy said so while waving his small hand as he looked at the young man who fell down losing his consciousness from that hit that looked light and harmless.
The young man slowly closed his eyes as he fainted, it was till some time later that he woke up, his vision hazy at first but soon better and much clearer than ever, no it was too much better that he couldn't understand what he was seeing and perceiving…
In a room that was neatly decorated with furniture that he definitely didn't see nor buy before, the young man jumped from his somewhat larger than usual bed, looking around, his eyes fell on his reflection in a tall standing mirror… moments later a surprised shout was heard from that room
"I AM SUPERMAN?!!!"

A young man while online browsing for a movie to watch, read somewhat upsetting comments, unable to leave without saying anything he commented his thoughts unaware of the consequences of such act...
“So? You like superman eh? Let us play a game, shall we?” 
Alas, because of a blunder, a normal young man of modern age finds himself in the world of DC comic as none other but Superman

Continue to invest in the low- and mid-tier authors? 
Ma Yiqun felt confused and bewildered. 
To him, Zhongdian Chinese Network's low- and mid-tier writers were already enjoying more than enough benefits. In fact, they were getting comparable treatment to big sites like Infinite Chinese Network.
However, it would be extremely difficult for low- and mid-tier writers to increase the revenue that they generated for the website. 
That was because writing was a form of creative art—it was very subjective. 
Some authors could not produce explosive works despite having written for ten years. Other gods grasped the essence of online literature after casually writing a million words and began aiming for the top. 
Thus, everything was dependent on the individual. 
Even if they poured all their efforts into finding and nurturing novel gods—as long as the authors' foundations remained the same, finding a novel god would be as difficult as winning the lottery. 
What if they invested in people who were not cut out for online literature? 
On the other hand, poaching people from other websites would prove more reliable. 
Still, since Boss Pei had spoken, Ma Yiqun had no choice but to obey. "Alright, Boss Pei. I'll do just that." 
… 
Ma Yiqun went back upstairs to Zhongdian Chinese Network and sat down in his office. He began to think about a concrete plan for the website. 
Boss Pei had already set the direction for him. The funds would not be used to poach authors from other websites but to continue investing in the low- and mid-tier writers of Zhongdian Chinese Network. 
Of course, the standards would be applied across the board. That meant that the top-tier writers would also get to enjoy the same benefits. 
However, top-tier writers would be more concerned that Zhongdian Chinese Network had not developed to the stage where it could sell copyrights. 
Their main source of income was still subscription fees from readers. Those were only considered side benefits to the top-tier writers; they would not be a huge factor to consider when making decisions. 
Ma Yiqun thought about it. 
To low- and mid-tier writers, Zhongdian Chinese Network could offer the same benefits that Infinite Chinese Network offered such as full-time remuneration. What's more, Zhongdian Chinese Network's standards were slightly higher. 
If Zhongdian Chinese Network was to offer more benefits, it had to offer benefits that other websites for online literature could never bear to.
What's more, although the benefits would be available to low- and mid-tier writers, the latter would be the focus. 
That was because there were far too many low-tier writers, and it would be impossible to consider all of them. 
Low-tier writers could even include people who only registered as authors on a whim and wrote several thousand words. 
If the website offered benefits to such people, it would be as good as a charity organization. No matter how much revenue the website generated, it would never be enough to cover its expenses. After all, it would be a pure loss-incurring transaction. 
Thus, the focus was mid-tier writers. 
The fact that they could rise a tier above the low-tier writers meant that they had the drive and skills to continue writing. They were more reliable and less likely to give up on their readers and quit the website. As they accumulated more experience, and with a bit of luck, some of them could be nurtured into top-tier writers.
Thus, the funds had to be invested in them. 
Ma Yiqun fell into deep thought. 
"Apart from royalties, readers, and fame which Infinite Chinese Network could provide as well; what else would these mid-tier writers need? 
"It's… security. 
"A career development plan and guidance… 
"A few social connections… 
"And… a more regulated, healthy life. 
"That means that only a portion of the writers can obtain this security. They will be selected through a rigorous process." 
Thinking that he had found the right direction, Ma Yiqun began to write his plan. 
Boss Pei was right. There was no way that Zhongdian Chinese Network would be able to compete with Infinite Chinese Network in terms of money. Even if the former could poach several authors over, they would not be able to keep doing so in the long-term. 
That was because Infinite Chinese Network had a huge reader base, many authors, and a greater ability to generate revenue. 
Thus, no matter which angle one looked at the problem from, Infinite Chinese Network could offer a more promising future to mid-tier writers than Zhongdian Chinese Network could. 
To attract more mid-tier writers to the website, Zhongdian Chinese Network would have to play to its strengths. It could not only work on visible aspects like royalties, readers, and exposure. Instead, it had to work on the invisible aspects. 
Basic security in life was one example. 
Authors did not earn basic salaries; neither did they have insurance or funds. After all, every book that they published was fraught with risk. Mid-tier writers' income was not considered low, but it was definitely not enough to compensate them for the risks that they had to expose themselves to regularly.
They could buy their own insurance and funds, but they would also have to pay the company's portion of the premiums. That was akin to paying double. 
Another example was a career development plan and guidance. 
Most authors were given free-reign. There were many authors and a few editors. Many mid-tier writers spoke less than a couple of sentences to their editors each year. 
Of course, many responsible and hardworking editors would discuss the author's writings with them. However, since there were too many boats chasing too few fish, only a small portion of writers would enjoy such treatment.
Many other writers ended up forming writing groups where they would discuss their experiences and grow together.
That arrangement could be compared to creating 'senior-partner' groups in companies. One could say that there was practically no career development or guidance offered in the online literature industry; authors were responsible for their own growth. 
The last example was a healthy lifestyle. 
Writers of online literature were free to create their own schedules. A common trap that many of them fell into was having irregular lifestyles. 
Having irregular lifestyles could affect one's body in many ways. For example, one could develop neck or back problems, high blood pressure, obesity, and the like. There had even been news reports of sudden deaths.
After all, one needed disciple to maintain a healthy lifestyle. 
Each person had different levels of discipline. Another important factor was one's environment. 
While at home, most people would only think about resting and playing; productivity would often be low. However, productivity would increase in an office or school. That was the power of one's environment. 
It would be hard to tell how disciplined full-time writers—who constantly wrote new chapters—were in other aspects of their lives, but they obviously had a high level of discipline when it came to work. 
Thus, after much thought, Ma Yiqun finally made up his mind. 
Zhongdian Chinese Network would start a class! 
It would not be a philosophical-type class, but a practical class that would provide security, provide career development plans and guidance, and nurture healthy lifestyles for mid-tier writers!
This was Ma Yiqun's initial plan: writers would be allowed to register, and the website's editors would shortlist thirty suitable candidates from the group of mid-tier writers at Zhongdian Chinese Network. 
That would be the first batch of guinea pigs, and Ma Yiqun would observe the effects of the class. 
The writers would be allowed to claim their expenses. Once they arrived in Jingzhou, their food and lodging would have been arranged. In any case, they could eat Fish-Catching Take-Out, and rent would not cost that much. 
The writers would also get a basic salary of three thousand yuan, and insurance and funds suitable for that amount.
Ma Yiqun would also find an office building near their accommodations, and rent thirty cheap workspaces. They would be required to clock in and out of work every day, according to Tengda's stipulated working hours. 
Apart from that, Ma Yiqun would organize regular discussions and sharing, where more successful writers could share their experience and learning points. 
Each time a writer wanted to start on a new book or became stuck at a point in the plot, they could discuss with the other writers and gather a variety of opinions. 
Under such circumstances, the writers would see each other more as friends and classmates than colleagues. 
Of course, not all writers would be interested in a practical class like that.
Many writers—the older and more experienced ones in particular—would not be interested in drawing a low salary, moving to Jingzhou, having meals and lodging provided, and clocking in and out of work like other writers. 
Writing online literature was a form of freelance work, and a benefit of freelance work was that one did not have to leave their houses. Wouldn't it defeat the purpose if they had to go to Jingzhou to write? 
Of course, Zhongdian Chinese Network would not force such writers to attend the practical class. 
Thus, the class would be targeted at the younger writers who did not have families yet. Those writers tended to have a lot of drive and potential, and they could improve quickly. Yet, they also had poor self-management skills and a set of expectations of society and their careers.
To test waters and observe results, the first practical class would last a month. 
If it did not prove effective, Ma Yiqun would increase the scale and extend the length in the future.
… 
After sending Ma Yiqun off, Pei Qian went back to studying. Less than half an hour later…
Ding! He received a message on his cell phone. 
Pei Qian picked it up and saw that it was a message from Chef Lin. 
"Boss Pei, a new high-end restaurant has opened in the city. It looks like it's competing with Ming Yun Private Kitchen. It's called Ming House, and it's targeting high-class customers as well! 
"I think it only opened two days ago. Ming Yun Private Kitchen has been seeing significantly fewer reservations. What should we do?" 
Pei Qian was stunned after reading the message. 
Ming House? 
A high-end restaurant seeking to compete with Ming Yun Private Kitchen? 
Could it be the restaurant that Boss Li and the others had invested in? 
Pei Qian recalled Boss Li mentioning this when they had met last month. Boss Li had said that he, Xue Zhebin, and Wang Peng had felt miserable because they had not been able to reserve a place at Ming Yun Private Kitchen. 
Thus, they had proposed working together with Pei Qian to turn the nameless restaurant into a franchise. However, Pei Qian had rejected them.
The three of them had had no choice but to start a restaurant on their own. 
Based on Pei Qian's calculations, Li Shi must have started preparations for the restaurant before proposing the idea to Pei Qian. That was why it could open for business two days ago. 
Pei Qian replied to Chef Lin's message with 'noted' and then called Li Shi. 
"Boss Li, is Ming House high-end restaurant that you started?" 
Li Shi smiled and said, "That's right, Boss Pei. What's the matter? You said you didn't care for it, but have you been paying attention to its progress in secret?" 
Pei Qian was speechless. 
Like h*ll, I've been paying attention to it. If Chef Lin had not sent me the message, I would not have found out that your high-end restaurant is already open for business. 
Pei Qian didn't bother to say more; he would only complicate matters if he did. Thus, he cut straight to the chase. "Boss Li, didn't I say that I'll have a meal at your restaurant once it opens for business? Why didn't you let me know?" 
Li Shi cleared his throat. "Hehe, Boss Pei, I'm really sorry. I've been very busy recently, and once I get busy, I become forgetful. What's more, I thought you were just being polite. 
"It was my mistake. How about this? Whenever you choose to come for a meal, I'll give you a thirty percent discount! That'll make it up to you." 
A thirty-percent discount? He isn't going to waive the bill? 
Boss Li was stingy indeed.
However, on further thought, Pei Qian realized that he could not accept a free meal even if Boss Li had offered. 
Since he offered a thirty-percent discount, then so be it. 
"Alright, let's not waste any time and make it today! Make a reservation for tonight on my behalf—I'll book the entire restaurant." Pei Qian sounded quite nonchalant. 
"Book… the entire restaurant? Tonight?" Li Shi was obviously at a loss for words. "It'll be a bit difficult to let you have the whole place tonight. Many people have already made reservations for 7 PM.
"I won't eat after 7 PM. I'll arrive at 4 PM and be done by 6 PM. There'll be time for you to clean up and receive your next batch of customers. I won't hold you up. 
"Do you have enough ingredients?" 
Pei Qian glanced at his watch. It was now 3:40 PM. 
Ming House was not far from here. He could reach the place in about twenty minutes. 
Li Shi remained silent for a while and then said, "We might run out of certain ingredients, but we have enough for the most part. Alright, Boss Pei! Of course, if you can come right now, it'll be great. We welcome you." 
Pei Qian, "Alright, see you soon." 
He hung up, jumped to his feet, and kept his notes. 
He couldn't study anymore; it was time to eat! 
They would arrive at 4 PM and eat until past 5 PM. That would be just right; everyone could rest once the workday ended. 


I really just want to lose money! T_T
Best boss ever, prodigy of the business world, genius creator, visionary of the century.

Indeed... how difficult can it be?

"But only a B-17 would be able to tow it. Russian planes wouldn't handle the load without shaking and destabilizing the bomber." Sandstorm says again.
"Considering the fact those bombers will not be main use for another year it's also a surprise you knew about it... the Americans started checking for spies as well." Steve says wishing he knew the endless trouble the girl would cause.
"But the test flight was in 1938! It's not that secret. We should hurry up and upgrade from the B-25s." Sandstorm says again.

Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's words, Ko Gohon's eyes instantly lit up and he anxiously said, "Uncle Kazuma, I've realized my mistakes. Quickly teach me, what do I have to do?!"
"Currently, the previous bet is already over. We'll just ignore it and not consider it any further." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "So, now, we mainly have to focus on the online novel website.
"According to your bet with Hong Dali, the person with the most number of daily updated books two weeks later wins. If it's according to your idea to increase the flat fees of the authors at the novel website and find ghostwriters to increase the number of novels, all these can more or less be done, but it's still far from enough!
"In this day and age, channels are the king.
"Number one, get through all the possible channels of the novel website and liaise with our joint venture companies in Heavenly State. As long as they are enterprises related to the internet, they must all advertise on the novel website.
"Number two, liaise with the telecommunication companies in Heavenly State and get them to send messages to prompt people to read our novels!
"Number three, liaise with all the web portals in Heavenly State, including Weibo, and open all channels to read our novels.
"Number four, hold a free of charge reading day to attract those readers that are used to reading free of charge books.
"Number five, hype things up and expose our Feng Yun website's remunerations for our authors on all the websites related to novels!
"Number six, liaise with the TV stations to interview our authors and create more exposure for the website!" 
Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's suggestions, Ko Gohon's face glowed as he firmly smacked his thigh. "Understood. I'll get these done right away!"
…
In the next few days, advertisements about Feng Yun website suddenly emerged everywhere. Advertisements for Feng Yun website were all over all the various websites in Heavenly State.
"Feng Yun website is the largest local reading base, free of charge reading and downloading of the novels. No pop-up ads, simple and clean webpage. Come to Feng Yun website to find good novels!"—Haoche Website. 
"Feng Yun website is an online novel website with no pop-up ads, providing the latest and best novels for all novel lovers. Come to Feng Yun website to read novels!"—Dream Paris.
"Feng Yun website provides you with various literature works with no advertisements to spoil your reading experience. It's a website which creates an elegant environment to read novels for all friends who are literature lovers, and the content includes various popular novels."—Guodian Online. 
…
On smartphones.
Countless people throughout Heavenly State had received messages about Feng Yun website's novels.
"We welcome you to the free of charge reading column, Feng Yun website provides all kinds of awesome and exciting novels." 
"[Urban] Personal Show: My Best Grade Missy."
"[Military Affairs] Special Operation of the Falcons: Special Force Number One." 
"[History] Great Waves Again in the Court: Big Fatuous Ruler."
"[Urban] Exceedingly Beautiful Superior: Pretty Tenant."
"[Fantasy] Wuzun Sword Slashes The Vault Of Heaven: Wudao Vault of Heaven."
Countless curious readers clicked on the advertisements, and after taking a few glances, they were satisfied with what they saw. "Mm, these book recommendations are not bad. It's quite good to kill time. This Feng Yun website is quite brilliant!"
Of course, there were those unimpressed as well. "Tsk, such a tacky way of promoting books. Now that there is the smartphone reading app produced by Young Master Hong Dali, who would still want to read these. Zhong Dian website is the king!"
…
On Xinhai Weibo—
Drunk and leaning on the fence of the pavilion, Meng Ziying Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novel 'Yifan's trouble' is very well written. I like how Yifan bullies Shaowan, serves him right for bullying Xiaochao… Mm, amusing as usual, this work is quite good." 
Douban Doujiao Doubao Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novels are quite good. I read novels there the whole day today. The books are not bad! Worth taking a look at them, I strongly recommend!

…
In the various readers' group chats.
"These two days, there are so many free books to read on Feng Yun website. I've discovered a few good ones."
"Really, then I'll go and take a look too."
"Of course it's true, it writes that the books are free of charge for a limited period of time!"
"Not bad, not bad. This website is doing pretty well!"
…
On the largest local online novel forum.
"Overwhelming amount of subscriptions! Feng Yun website with all kinds of awesomeness!"
"Zhong Dian or Feng Yun? A newbie feels that Feng Yun is still better!"
"Please help, a newcomer wanting to know whether it's better to go to Feng Yun or Zhong Dian? I personally feel that Feng Yun is better, I can earn quick money."
"Zhong Dian wants to defeat Feng Yun just by relying on a smartphone app, does Feng Yun know about this?"
…
At the TV station.
"Hello, hello, as a Great God-level author on Feng Yun website, may I know how much can your monthly earnings reach?"
"Earnings, this… Around 20 to 30 thousand per month is still fine."
"So much? Then you must be one of those people with the highest earnings on Feng Yun website, right?"
"No! How is it possible that my earnings are so high. My fingers are not nimble, so I type considerably slower. We have people who can type fast and are able to write 10 to 20 thousand words per day, and their remuneration is at least 50 thousand and above per month. There are even people earning 100 thousand!"
"So much?!"
"Yes, Feng Yun website's perks are very good."
…
In Tianjing City, the tallest television tower, in the top floor revolving restaurant.
"Young Master, Chief, the latest totaled reports of Feng Yun website are out!" The bodyguard was shivering with fear as he looked at Shiroishi Kazuma whose back was facing him and was standing in front of the window with his hands placed at his back. This time, he really saluted him. "According to the latest reports, currently, the site traffic of the website has already increased to 2.4 million and above for daily independent IPs. These two days, large batches of newcomers have started writing new books, and the number of updated books in three days have already reached 3,600 books!" 
"So fast!" Ko Gohon exclaimed, "Uncle Kazuma, your idea is really useful!"
"So-so." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm. "How many daily updated books does Zhong Dian website have now?"
"Chief," The bodyguard's expression and voice were filled with respect. "At the moment, there are approximately 4,500 newly updated books daily."
"Mm, we still lack 900 books." Shiroishi Kazuma said with satisfaction, "It's still within our control. If things continue progressing this way, probably in no time, we will be able to overtake Zhong Dian website. After all, the authors are after all the benefits and perks. As long as there is enough advertising, and the money is sufficient, it's not difficult to attract authors over."
Ko Gohon fully looked up to Shiroishi Kazuma now, as he anxiously asked, "Uncle Kazuma, then, do we continue like this? Why don't I get more ghostwriters to write more books? It's fine as long as it can surpass Hong Dali. I don't plan to earn much money from it."
Upon hearing Ko Gohon's words, Shiroishi Kazuma shook his head and slowly said, "No, if Hong Dali can earn money, why can't we?"
"Ah?" Ko Gohon said in surprise, "Uncle Kazuma, you're planning to… seriously run this Feng Yun website?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma nodded, yet he didn't continue talking about the novel website but instead looked out of the window, saying, "Young Master Gohon, look at the night view of Tianjing City. How beautiful is it? It's not lacking compared to Tokyo in our Jaban Empire, isn't it?" 
It was night right now. The night view of Tianjing City was extremely beautiful. Neon lights were flashing, and it was especially comfortable to stand from high up and look down, coupled with the gentle night breeze.
"It's very pretty." Ko Gohon agreed. "I haven't really noticed it previously."
"Yes, we haven't noticed it previously." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm, as he slowly stated, "It's the same for our Toyoda Conglomerate. As the top 16 in the world, the funds of our Toyoda Conglomerate are ample. You normally don't care about this, so you won't care about how much money you spend. You just feel that all the money is there for you to take it."
"I understand, Uncle Kazuma." Upon hearing this, Ko Gohon instantly understood what Shiroishi Kazuma meant.
Actually, he wasn't a stupid person. It was just that in the midst of fighting with Hong Dali, he had always been at the losing end, thus his conflicted mind.
Toyoda Conglomerate was indeed very rich. Just like the night view of Tianjing City, though it was pretty, one wouldn't notice it after looking at it for many times. But no matter how rich it was, after all, it had been built up bit by bit, and it didn't just drop down from the sky.
In that case, as long as they properly operated this Feng Yun website, then they could earn money. So why don't they do it properly and well?
"Uncle Kazuma, what should we do next?" Ko Gohon asked.
"Now since the popularity has already been increased, then next, we'll take in all the good ones and eliminate the bad ones." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "Eliminate all those poor-quality books and get them to finish writing them as soon as possible. Secure those good-quality books and do your best in nurturing their authors. At the same time, slightly change the welfare benefits policy and slowly convert the severance method to giving out dividends. After the novel website has entered a stable phase of operation, it would then be a virtuous cycle." 
"Uncle Kazuma, you are brilliant!" Ko Gohon was elated. "Then, after the website has entered a virtuous cycle, we can earn quite a lot of money, right?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma smiled. "Don't belittle online novel websites. All the profits from the adaptations of films, online games, merchandises and so on are actually huge. I truly admire Hong Dali. The things started up by this lad truly have very big prospects!" 
"After hearing what Uncle Kazuma just said, I realized that this Hong Dali is very brilliant!" Now, Ko Gohon finally had to admit that Hong Dali was indeed brilliant. "I haven't thought about all this!"
Speaking up to this point, Ko Gohon recalled his bet with Hong Dali. "But Uncle Kazuma, my bet with Hong Dali…"
"Hehe, there's no hurry on that." Shiroishi Kazuma wasn't worried at all about the bet and insipidly said, "Since I've come, of course I have a way to help you win. Wait for a few more days, let's see first whether Hong Dali's side makes any moves."
Shiroishi Kazuma assured Ko Gohon, then instructed him, "Remember, leave your trump card for the last. Don't take them all out at once. Or else, what will you have left to fight him by then?"
"I understand!" This time, Ko Gohon was really convinced. "Thank you for your advice, Uncle Kazuma."


"I have to squander; otherwise, won't it be a waste of my parent's talent at earning money?" Hong Dali answers a reporter's question matter-of-factly. 

Just after the interview ends, Hong Dali opens the Great Prodigal System's interface and looks at the various good stuff displayed in it. Stroking his chin, he mumbles to himself, "I just need to squander 200 billion yuan more to exchange for the blueprint of the core technology, Engine Destruction, found in the strongest humanoid mecha weapon, Neo Granzon. Looks like I'll have to work harder!"

"I want to splurge! I want to squander!"


"You have to read these documents first so you can understand the company's situation."

With a smile on his face, Henry asked Helen to sit down and hand him the company information file.

Helen nodded in response, and took the data file carefully.

Henry saw him sitting there in a controlled and calm state, so he said: "Your main job in the future is to help me organize my daily documents and remind me of some important things. By the way, your office is on the right side of my office Here. Now, you go to find information now, and we will go out for dinner later. "

Helen looked to the right, and there was a small room with beautiful decorations with glass windows. Hearing Henry tell him to search for information, she immediately answered, then stood up and prepared to walk.

"Wait!"

Helen paused suddenly, turned and asked, "Chairman, is there anything else needed?"

"This is the cellphone the company gave you. Take it." Henry handed over the cellphone, which is the latest Motorola model, for three to four thousand dollars. Henry does not have a cellphone, is not comfortable carrying it, he cannot keep it in his pocket and moreover such a cellphone he must hold in his hand at all times. Henry gives his cellphone to his private driver if there is someone who wants to contact Henry, he will call his private driver. But it is not very convenient for him to give his driver a task like a secretary, fortunately, now a private secretary is there. If someone has something important let them call their secretary.

Helen was astonished. The company treated him very well because he gave him a cellphone after he was hired!

"Thank you, Chairman."

"Go ahead and get to know the company employees as soon as possible so you are comfortable here," Henry finished speaking, looking at the file in his hand.

This document is about preparing Global Online. Global Online has begun to take shape. The email development team, website development team, news and entertainment editorial department, plus a number of other jobs, recruited a total of 95 people.

Henry positioned the global online service to be an online service, and what could be better than a portal for online services? America Online only provides their service functions and has not yet developed into a portal site. In previous lives, AOL and Yahoo were the two biggest portals of the time.

Indeed, it is rather early to develop a portal today. First, there are fewer Internet users, and second, there are fewer websites. But this did not prevent Henry from turning the global online into a portal. Imagine, compared to portal websites, ordinary websites, who is more prominent and who is more popular among netizens? There is no doubt that it is a portal site, of course.

When the global online portal was built, this portal also provided various online service functions such as e-mail. It's possible to press AOL!

However, to become a portal website, you need to know which websites have more traffic and are more popular to provide the most accurate service to users. Therefore, it is necessary to develop software to calculate the traffic of each website.

Alexa is a website dedicated to publishing the world ranking website in a previous life. They developed the AlexaToolbar software (Alexa toolbar), which is a tool that is embedded in Microsoft Internet Explorer. It sends a message to Alexa when a user visits each webpage. Return to the set of codes and tell Alexa relevant information about the search. Users will see website ranking information that is searched among all websites in the world on the tool bar.

Therefore, Global Online needs to develop software similar to the Alexa toolbar.

Therefore, before Global Online was officially launched, Henry began to instruct them to develop the Alexa software. After Henry talked to Geely Hutt, it was almost half past five. At this time, most of the company's employees have stopped their work.

Henry saw that Helen was reading the information seriously, so she walked and shouted, "Helen, stop work now because it's dinner time, let's have dinner together."

"Chairman, I ... I can't eat with you."

"Why?"

"I have to go home to take care of my mother."

Henry suddenly realizes how much he forgot about it!

"All right, then you go home first."

"Thank you, Chairman." Helen happily said, "Then I'll go first!"

"Okay. Oh, wait a minute!"

Helen looked at Henry suspiciously.

At this time, Henry pulled out a pile of money from a drawer and handed it to him: "This is the company's down payment one-third of your salary."

"Chairman, thank you very much !!!" Helen took the money and cried.

Henry smiled and gave her a tissue: "In that case, you can work hard in the future, don't let your boss down! Come on, wipe your tears quickly, or if seen by others. They will think I'm bluffing you!"

"Thank you, Chairman!"

"Hurry and go home, your mother might be waiting for you."

Helen nodded, turned, and left, walking lightly, like a cheerful evergreen tree.

Henry said with a smile, "What a kind girl"

...

The following week, Henry and Helen communicated better. Helen is a very hardworking and disciplined person. Although mistakes sometimes occur due to lack of experience, progress is remarkable.

From his conversation, Henry learned that his father left his mother and daughter in the early years and did not know where he was going. His mother worked hard to raise him, and eventually suffered a serious illness and lay in bed all day. Henry gave him an advance in salary of three thousand dollars, basically spent on medical care. She didn't buy new clothes, cosmetics, or high heels, She was as kind-hearted as Cinderella in the countryside that was Henry's impression when he first saw him.

However, Helen now had many smiles on her face, and at the same time she was more confident!

The end of 1987 was almost here, and the company had to pay taxes again. Henry thinks of Helen's mother, and then thinks of tax evasion from charity in the United States. I think: Charity is better than paying taxes! Charity not only avoids taxes, but also gets fame, which has a huge impact on improving the company's image!

Next, Henry asks Cisco to set up a charity fund. Although the annual financial report has not been released, Henry might estimate that Cisco sales this year exceed 100 million US dollars and must pay a lot of taxes. Henry discusses with Bossack and tells Sequoia Capital. Regardless of whether they agree or not, Henry and Bossack founded the Cisco Charity Foundation. Furthermore, Cisco donated 10 million US dollars.

Henry listed Helen's mother as the first object of charity. For Henry, helping Helen's mother was a trivial matter, but for Helen's family, it was a big help!

Suddenly, Helen ran to Henry's office crying. Henry saw her crying, was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked: "Why are you crying?"

"Chairman, my mother received help from a particular charity fund. I was so happy I cried," Helen said excitedly. The documents Henry gave him were only information from the Nicholas Group and other Henry industries. He hasn't read it yet, but he'll read it soon!

"Well, because you are happy, you should smile more. Prepare yourself and call Geely Hutt for me."

"Okay, Chairman."

Not long after, Geely Hutt arrived.

Helen served a cup of coffee to Geely Hutt, and Geely Hutt took a sip of coffee and smiled: "Ms. Helen's expertise in making coffee has increased every day."

Helen blushed, and quickly stepped back.

Henry shook his head wordlessly. Geely Hurt always likes to tease him.

"Geely, when will Global Online be officially launched?"

Geely Hutt said: "Expected by January 1 next year."

Henry counted it, and now it's November, which is just over a month. Next, Henry and Geely Hutt discuss some specific problems that will be faced and the direction of future development.

In the afternoon, Henry's office phone rings, this is a call from Bob Gallagher. For the Noah's Ark Company, apart from company CEO Bob Gallagher. As for the specific details of the company, Henry did not know much about it. After all this time, there should be good news for web server development.

Henry was a little excited in his heart and hurriedly connected to the telephone, and Bob Gallagher's strong voice with a hint of excitement came from the other end of the phone!

"Chairman, we have developed a web server !!!"

"Very good !!! You did a very good job!" Henry praised, "Alright, I'll go now, I want to watch the world's first web server with my own eyes!"

"Well!"

Henry hangs up and then shouts into Helen's office: "Helen, let's go now."

"Okay, Chairman, I'm coming soon!"

After more than an hour by car, Henry arrived at Noah's Ark Company. Bob Gallagher and some company management have been waiting for Henry outside.

"Welcome chairman!"

Henry nodded, and then under Bob Gallagher's leadership, he visited the web server in the laboratory.

This web server is a mini computer, much bigger than an ordinary computer. A unix system is used, and the processor is an Intel 16-bit 8086 processor. The appearance of this server is mounted on a rack. As for blade servers, it cannot be used at this time due to lack of technology. Henry gradually understood the relevant functions of this web server under staff operations and explanations.

The first is that its reliability is greatly enhanced, and a website that uses a web server will not easily crash, secondly, it is easier to manage a website in the background through a web server, finally, it has certain "scalability", such as a web server that cannot support web site. Large traffic, you can add a new web server to share the pressure!

This server is quite mature and can be brought to market.

Henry was very satisfied, praised everyone at the place, and then gave the name of the server.

"Call it Web Ark One!"

Thus, the name of the world's first web server was born, and it was called Web Ark One! ! !

In the evening, Henry entertained everyone for dinner at the most expensive hotel in the area.

After the web server exits, the first user is the Nicholas Group Company. As Noah's Ark's main shareholder, Nicholas bought a server at an internal price. Bob Gallagher recommends that each web server sell for $ 100,000, an internal price of 60,000, and cost 50,000. The Nicholas Group bought five at a time. Cisco also bought it, but they need less and only buy one!

Earth in the year 980, there is no advanced technology, no entertainment to feed the boredom, there is only power struggles, constant warfare and very dirty politics.

Kingdoms began to stand one by one to prove and declare their kingdom was the ruler of the world.

Michael Jackson, a young man in the 20th century with a blessing from God to redeem his life who has saved many people at the cost of his life.

There is no system and also not a matchless genius, but Michael was given a mysterious blessing by God.

"If you were in my position, what would you do?"

I will try to start a novel about world growth from a long time ago, and remember this world is just an imagination so it has nothing to do with the real world.

Do not protest, because I use the help of goggle translate if any suggestions I really appreciate it.

Real World, Eastern Sea Region, Ace City
Arthur was currently at the terrace of the second floor of their house, enjoying the cold breeze of the night while staring at the starry sky.
A few moments later, Leonard walked from the house and sat the chair beside Arthur before saying. "Try to relax? It is quite rare for you to not play the game during your free time."
"I played a little earlier. But the update is quite disappointing so far," replied Arthur in a nonchalant manner. And after a brief moment of pause, he added. "Aside from the improved playstyle for both PvE and PvP battles, the other update is not much helpful for players on our level."
"The monster drops and EXP that they gave us are slightly improved, but it is still not enough. Though, the daily quests released by the Adventurer Guild are not that bad. At least, we can now have a stable source of EXP."
Leonard leaned his back a little to have a more comfortable position before asking. "So, you are quite lazy to play the game for the time being, huh?"
Arthur smirked a little before answering. "Well, I speedrun all of the quest available for me, so there is nothing that can pique my interest for now."
"Then, why not help Shin Bro at the Blind Abyss Empire? I heard he is creating quite a mess in there. He even challenged Immortal on an Official Duel," said Leonard as he laid his back on the chair a little more to have a more relaxing position.
"I actually want to head in there too. That guy is really an expert at creating trouble wherever he goes," said Arthur.
Leonard couldn't help but chuckle a little after hearing that. "That is 'huge' coming from you."
Arthur shrugged his shoulders and continued. "Well, unfortunately, we can't go in there to share the fun."
"Why do you think that idiot did not ask for some assistance? Of course, it is because he is afraid to blow up his cover. After all, it is the same as declaring that the Nameless Swordsman and Sickarius is the same individual if we really head there now."
"The others may overlook it, but Big Sis will surely not be going to miss such a 'minor' detail. So, it is better for us to behave for the time being and observe how the situation is going to develop."
"Moreover, it is still not too late to head there if everything really goes out of hand," he added while adjusting to a more comfortable position.
Hearing that, Leonard nodded his head and turned silent for a moment before saying. "But what do you think about the Challenge? It is quite unexpected for Immortal to choose such a disadvantageous mode for an important battle. I wonder what happened."
Arthur started chuckling before replying. "Well, I am pretty sure that it is Shin's doing."
"We forgot to tell him about the hidden features of the 'Godly Challenge Rights' since there are a lot of things that happened recently. But whatever it is, I can reassure you that Shin did something that forced Immortal to choose the 'Default Mode'."
He then wore a wide grin with his lips before continuing. "And since he managed to do it, his odds for this duel rose up a little. At least, he now has the chance of winning."
Leonard nodded his head repeatedly before adding to his words. "Yeah. After all, the Awakening Skills of Necromancer Class are quite troublesome to deal with – especially the 'Enhanced Summoning' and similar skills."
After that, he turned his head at Arthur before saying. "Anyway, are you going to watch the match? Given the reputation of the two, I am pretty sure that it is going to be broadcasted by a lot of entertainment industries."
Arthur shrugged his shoulders a little before answering. "Well, I am too lazy to go online. Maybe I'll just watch the broadcast here. The broadcast on the True Sight Industries channel is not that bad – I guess I'll watch the duel through them."
Leonard pursed his lips a little before nodding his head repeatedly while saying. "Then I guess, I'll also watch it here with you."
After that, Arthur tapped his Advance Watch a couple of times to open a virtual screen in front of them. He then headed to the personal channel of the True Sight Industries before waiting for the broadcast to start.
But since there was still a lot of time before the duel started, Arthur chose to browse for other trending topics for the time being. And while browsing, he suddenly remembered something and immediately opened another virtual screen before searching for a couple of websites.
Seeing that, Leonard knitted his eyebrows for a moment before asking. "What are you doing?"
"Looking for some websites," replied Arthur nonchalantly.
Hearing that, Leonard rolled his eyes at him and said sarcastically. "Yeah, right, smartass! It is quite obvious and I can also see it! What I am asking is why are you searching for those sites. Don't tell me, you are not interested in creating your own website?"
Arthur ignored what he said and just asked. "Hey, how much do you think these guys are earning by uploading these videos?"
The corner of Leonard's mouth suddenly twitched when he heard that before saying. "So, you are really planning to create your own channel?"
At this point, Arthur finally turned his head at Leonard while saying in an excited tone. "No, I am not only planning to create my channel but an official website for our Adventurer Team where each of us can have our own channel."
He then paused for a couple of moments before opening a few videos which were showing a couple of battles. Those videos seemed to be the teaser of each channel.
After that, Arthur looked at Leonard before looking at Leonard with sparkling eyes. "See these? These videos are quite good! We can also create such videos which are going to blow the minds of every person who is going to watch them."
Leonard slapped his forehead when he saw that and shook his head helplessly. 'This showoff, can he just a little be honest.'
  
Seeing that, Arthur sat up straight before saying. "Come on! It is a good idea, isn't it? We can earn extra money just by posting a few videos here – it is not much different on blogging or sort."
Leonard released a bitter laugh after hearing that before saying. "Then why not create your own channel and post your own videos there?"
Arthur clicked his tongue before 'justifying' his thought. "Tsk! It is boring if I am the only one there. Isn't it better if we post our videos on the same website? That way, we can have more viewers."
"Imagine, both of us are famous Godlike Players who have a lot of fans out there. So, if we combine all of them by posting on the same website, then we are going to have an even larger number of audiences. And after that, the money is just going to flow naturally."
Leonard was swayed for a moment when he heard that but immediately shook that idea off his mind when he realized that something. He looked at Arthur with a huge frown on his face before asking. "Creating that kind of website is one thing but who is going to manage it when it is done?"
Arthur stopped working for a moment when he heard that and stared blankly at Leonard when he realized such a problem.
After a few moments of silence, he suddenly started grinning evilly before saying. "Heh! Who else? There is only a single person who can do such a thing between the three of us, right?"
Leonard frowned his eyebrows a little when he heard that. Then he turned silent for a moment and moved his eyes between Arthur and opened websites.
After that, he started grinning alongside Arthur which led the two of them to start laughing quite loudly. And when they were done, they immediately started discussing the details about the website that they were going to make.
********
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the True Sight Industries, everyone seemed to be too busy preparing for the broadcast that they were going to make.
But at the same time, they were also having a huge problem with the host that they chose to cover the duel.
"Ms. Bunny, don't play hard to get now, shall we? This is the Angel of Death and Lich God we are talking about. Didn't you like to cover his battles all the time? You even edited quite a few of his battle videos and posted it on your personal channel."
The head manager was having a hard time persuading Ms. Bunny to cover the said fight between Shin and Immortal. But no matter how hard he tried, all he got were immediate rejection.
"Hmph! I already told you, I am really busy right now and have no time to host that duel. Why not offer it to the other hosts you have there? Aren't you eager to give them quite a few projects? This is the right time to do it."
After saying that, Miss Bunny slammed the table and stood up before leaving the office. "If that is all you want to say, then I need to go now. I still have an appointment."
She then walked out of the room and left the head manager who was now having the hardest time of his life.
"Tch! Such a boot-lick fogey. I repeatedly told them to feature the Nameless Swordsman in a few of our shows yet they keep on rejecting me by saying that he is just a rising star who recently earned a little bit of fame."
"But now that a huge event occurred, they are now asking me to cover it? In their dreams! Do they think that I am a pushover? I will never help them build up the hype as they take all of the benefits later."
As she was walking out of the company, her Advance Watch suddenly rang which indicated that she just got a message. "Huh?"
Opening her Advance Watch, she immediately saw that it came from her email. And when she took a look at it, she was suddenly stunned after seeing that the message came from Siegfried's official email.
"Eh!? The Dragon God, Siegfried?" she was quite confused at why she got a message from him. So, she suddenly became curious and immediately opened the message.
Then she suddenly became even more stunned after reading the content of the message. She was unable to move nor talk for quite some time before she could process everything that she just read. And when she recovered herself, she turned head left and right to make sure that no one was around.
After that, she immediately ran towards her car while wearing an overjoyed look on her face. "This is it! This might be the biggest break of my life!"

Little did they know that within three days, Senator Rizza will be judged.

On the first day, she will be surprised by a piece of shocking news. 

On the second day, she will be visited by an unexpected visitor.

On the third day, she will be graced by the presence of Kings.

....

The first day of J in the Twelve Army headquarters was something that she had never expected. At first, she was against staying inside the Twelve Army Headquarters simply because it was too far from CLP Hospital.

But since she already decided to temporarily stop working at the hospital, staying at the Twelve Army Headquarters doesn't seem like a bad idea.

Why not? First, there's the clinic where she can still practice her profession.

Secondly, there is the training facility where she can hone her skills in target shooting and Muay Thai and just today, she found out that Jacob ordered to put up an archery shooting range in the vicinity.

Third, there is a factory where the armored vehicles were made. J was excited about it since she has always been fascinated by how vehicles are made. Back then, with her first race car as Black Heiress, she is hands-on with the modifications of the car. In fact, she had familiarized her self with it that she can make her own race car. J is a curious person and always hungry for new knowledge, so she will never let the chance of learning how to make an armored vehicle slip away.

And lastly, but definitely not the least, there is the 'home' that Jacob ordered to be built for them. The first 'home' that J considered as 'theirs'.

Jacob was working on his office reviewing and signing papers while giving instructions to James. 

J decided to stay in the clinic for a while after the meeting with the 12 officials of the Twelve Army. After staying there until 6 PM, she finally thought that it is enough for the day. Arthur left her to run some errands but J knew that Arthur must probably be in the basement.

She called him to say that she has to talk to him before she went back 'home'.

As soon as she reached the 3rd floor of the main building, Arthur was already waiting for her outside the elevator.

"Miss J, you need something?" Arthur asked as soon as she stepped out of the elevator.

J nodded her head. "I need you to contact an online news website. Give them the information we have and I want it released online at midnight today." J's tone was determined.

"Okay, you have anyone in mind?" Arthur asked as he followed J who had started walking toward Jacob's office. She has started to get familiar with the maze-like hallways of the building. 

"Hmm...How about Lotus Exposed?" J asked Arthur although she had already decided about it. 

"Not bad," Arthur replied.

J had already reviewed the profile of Lotus Exposed. It is an online news website that is ranked as number one in the country with over 80 thousand viewers monthly. It was the first news website to extensively use social media for news distribution.

With the popularity of online news websites, fake news is unavoidable. And in just a couple of years, there were multiple online news websites that were charged with libel for publishing fake news. Some of them went on a hiatus while others had permanently ceased operation.

But, Lotus Exposed remained their good reputation as the longest-running and most trusted online news website in the country.

So J personally chose them. She knew that if they passed them the information they got on their hands and published it, the public will trust to believe it.

She knows that Lotus Exposed will make their own investigations before they publish news to know if the news is legit or not. But, J doesn't worry. She will give them all evidence and even if they do their own investigation, it will only end up that their piece of information is verifiable.

"Okay, I'll personally send the information and evidence to them tonight." J doesn't have to say that they have to remain anonymous. All they have to do is to entrust the information to them and then after that, they don't have anything to do with it anymore. They just had to watch as someone's reputation is being ruined by her own conduct.

After being assigned as J's right-hand man, Arthur had started to widen his scope of skills and knowledge. If before, all he does is hone his skills in martial arts and strategizing, now he also has to widen his connection. He also has to improve his skills with communicating with people because at most, he will be the one to talk on behalf of J.

At the age of 10, J's parents died in an ambush leaving her in the care of her grandfather who years later sent her away along with her best friend to hide her and her identity from those who would try to kill her after her parents.

20 years past, a lot of things had already happened. Her dearest grandfather died, she came back to Lotus City, and was secretly married!

She was married off by her grandfather to his best friend's grandson before he died and she was oblivious about it.

Do this secret marriage has to do with her secret identity?
