Chapter 117: I Possess a Unique Recitation Technique!

The online buzz never ceased, and in reality, Luo Chen was far from idle. The promised All-Star series had only introduced Uncle Long, Zhuge Qinmo, and Lang Lang so far. If he didn’t complete the rest, many viewers would fail to understand the jokes.

Speaking of which, the streamers on the Stardust platform had been quick to imitate these characters over the past few days. Within just two days, numerous videos featuring Uncle Long flooded the platform’s trending charts. Many follow-up videos went viral again. The humorous clips and new remix techniques inspired by Luo Chen had made many creators popular, reigniting the entire remix section’s vitality.

Cheng Yu was one such creator. Once an ordinary streamer on the Stardust platform, he had been making remix videos for years with little attention. His lack of originality was partly to blame, but the overwhelming volume of content on the platform made standing out nearly impossible for average creators.

Fortunately, Cheng Yu had a keen eye. When fresh remix material emerged and everyone else was still hesitating, he was among the first to jump on the bandwagon. From the initial remixes of Professor Yuan Ning and the Three Kingdoms Lang Liang, to now Uncle Long’s shampoo ad, Cheng Yu released follow-up videos without delay.

Many fans, after enjoying the original master’s works, still craved more from the same series. For a time, as long as these follow-up videos weren’t too poor in quality, their views surged. With the views came fans, popularity, and donations.

In less than a month, Cheng Yu transformed from an overlooked small streamer into a popular creator within the remix community. Though many openly or covertly mocked him for shamelessly copying others to reach this success, who among remixers didn’t borrow from the pure-hearted Angel’s videos? They all acted as if they were so righteous, when in fact they were just jealous.

Cheng Yu had no interest in arguing with these losers. He’d rather spend his time producing more remix videos.

Logging into the Stardust platform and viewing his personal page, Cheng Yu’s heart swelled with excitement at nearly half a million followers. A month ago, he wouldn’t have dreamed of having fifty thousand, let alone five hundred thousand. This transformation was not solely due to his hard work; it was largely thanks to the Angel master. From the day he became popular, Cheng Yu had vowed to be the Angel master’s loyal fan and steadfast supporter.

After calming his excitement, Cheng Yu strolled through the comment section as usual. But today, it felt different. The usual discussions and critiques of video content had been pushed far off to the corners, replaced entirely by gossip.

Cheng Yu wasn’t surprised; this wasn’t the first time the comment section had been overtaken. He was used to it. In fact, these gossip threads provided plenty of inspiration.

“Uncle Long graciously responds to remix incident—fans, why haven’t you liked it yet?”

“A must-discuss between the Angel and the God of Luo! Family or lovers? Professional analysis gives you the answer.”

…

Cheng Yu hadn’t been aware of these big headlines immediately, but it wasn’t too late. Whether it was Uncle Long’s exclusive interview or the gossip between the two masters, both were excellent remix materials. Many clever creators had already turned Uncle Long’s interview into remix videos that climbed the trending charts. Although Uncle Long couldn’t be mocked lightly, there was still the host, wasn’t there?

Having missed the chance, Cheng Yu shifted his attention to the gossip news.

This was the scandal between the pure-hearted Angel and the God of Luo! Judging by how much the comment section was flooded, it was clear how many people cared. Should he seize the opportunity and make a video to stir the gossip? It was bound to catch fire and might even earn him another hundred thousand followers.

After some hesitation, Cheng Yu abandoned this tempting idea. As soon as such a remix video appeared, the whole Stardust platform would be overrun by similar videos the next day. If it displeased the masters, wouldn’t the first creator to post be finished? He didn’t want to risk losing everything over a small gain.

Suppressing his restless desire, Cheng Yu continued scrolling through the gossip, hoping to find useful information. Unfortunately, not much had happened in the past two or three days. With no luck, he reluctantly gave up.

Just as Cheng Yu was about to jump on the Uncle Long remix train, he noticed another comment rapidly climbing the ranks, with hundreds of replies in a short time.

“What? The Angel has updated again!”

“Really? Such a prolific demon!”

“That’s impossible. I follow the Angel closely and didn’t get a notification.”

“Where? On the Stardust platform? I mean the site!”

…

Because Luo Chen’s personal website’s address started with “bb,” fans simply called it “the site” for short. Many speculated whether the URL held a special meaning, but since Billy Wang was unknown in China, the truth-seekers and analysts overlooked this fact.

Cheng Yu admired the pure-hearted Angel’s godlike update speed. Just two days had passed, and already new remix material was found? How could followers like him keep up with such original content?

But knowing there was only one such prodigy comforted Cheng Yu. Compared to the Angel master, he still had his own merits and was a fairly popular creator in the remix community.

Shaking off the discouragement, Cheng Yu eagerly logged into the site and clicked on the pinned All-Star remix series. Originally only three episodes, now there were four. The master really had released a new work in just two days...
