I Am A Prodigy

Chapter 618: Who’s This?

Too bad his refining was only at the basic level, thus limiting him to simple formations on the pendants. By the time his Formation and refining skills gets upgraded further, he would be able to imprint some defensive or even offensive formations on them in the future.

Just imagine having a protective amulet equivalent to having a bulletproof vest and a gun. How amazing would that be?

Matters at home were settled that day, so Ye Jin and Xu Zhen were going back to work. Ye Lingchen also got ready to return to Capital City.

“Son, you mustn’t fight with others again. Stop making me worried,” Xu Zhen reminded him.

“Yes mom, don’t worry.” Ye Lingchen naturally nodded along.

“Mind your image as a celebrity. Meanwhile, don’t let your studies fall behind,” Ye Jin could not help adding on.

“Dad, with my results, I’ll be the top scorer in university,” Ye Lingchen answered with a smile.

“Enough showing off. Keep it up.” Ye Jin laughed along.

...

Within Spring Hill Residences...

Ye Lingchen was browsing online. By then, five days had gone by since the Spring Festival Gala incident. Nevertheless, public discussions online had not died down.

There were many reasons for it, the main one being the hyperactivity of those die-hard fans of the Stick Nation. Meanwhile, a small group of celebrities from the Stick Nation would also occasionally voice out their misery.

[That’s inhumane. How can they do this?]

[F*ck, what’s going on with this world? What’s wrong with me liking celebrities from the Stick Nation?]

[My poor Fanfan. I need to voice out the injustice for my poor Fanfan, sob sob sob...]

[They just announced the ban and left it at that? Give us an explanation!]

[Are they forcing us to watch China’s terrible TV series by stopping us from watching Stick Nation’s TV series? Do you know why the Stick Nation’s programs are popular? That’s because they’re good and we love watching it!]

[That’s too overbearing. We’re not buying it. I demand the abolishment of Stick Nation’s celebrity restriction order!]

Similar comments kept popping up every day, triggering everyone else to discuss the matter. Although there were some dissenting voices, they were quickly drowned out by the crowd.

[Did the Stick Nation’s celebrities bribe you? Why do you like them so much?]

[You don’t support your own country and end up supporting the celebrities from the Stick Nation. Just what are you thinking?]

[The Stick Nation’s TV series are good? Did you forget that in their TV series, many belittle us Chinese people?]

[They’re too fanatical. Our country has so many celebrities, yet they have to like those sissies.]

There were comments along those lines as well, but the ratio was much smaller.

It was obvious that someone was controlling the discussion and direction of the discussions.

‘Hehe, they sure are stubborn.’

Ye Lingchen’s brows twitched as he had a pensive look in his eyes. The one pulling the string was quite obvious. It should be orchestrated by the various celebrities from Stick Nation’s entertainment industry.

It seemed that they were still dreaming of expanding their career in China.

Some time ago, the Stick Nation’s entertainment industry even made an announcement claiming that it hoped to improve relationships with China’s entertainment industry. They hoped to have more exchange networking between the celebrities and not let minor matters affect their connections, urging for the matter to be forgotten.

They were compromising.

They felt they had conveyed their sincerity and stroke the ego of China’s entertainment industry. That should be sufficient to have them let bygones be bygones and lift their restriction order shortly.

The arrangement of both incidents was impeccably controlled, involving multiple approaches. One was to compromise while the other made demands. First, they gave the Chinese entertainment industry a way out and stroked their ego, then followed by controlling the discussions online.

‘Hehe, how naive. They really live up to their shamelessness.’

Ye Lingchen shook his head as his lips curled into a smirk.

‘You think you can get out of this scot-free with some petty tricks?’

If they were truly sincere, they should first punish Hyun-Min Kim for his actions, then have him make a public apology to China and its people. After that, they should take the initiative to curb disrespectful behavior from their celebrities. Moreover, they need to have their entertainment industry representative to offer an apology to China’s people and recognize China as a great nation!

Unfortunately, they did none of that!

Petty tricks would only increase the disdain Ye Lingchen had for them. ‘What do you take me for? Someone you can just boss around?’

Although China’s entertainment industry made no reply to the Stick Nation’s entertainment, Ye Lingchen could!

Ye Lingchen took out his phone and gave Dong Miaomiao a call.

“Hello, Director Ye.”

“Miaomiao, take note of these herbs I’m telling you. Pick those that are well grown. I’m planning to make a small batch of medicine by hand,” Ye Lingchen instructed calmly. He was able to make his own medicine, but it was limited to a small portion. Having machines was still much more convenient.

“Sure thing. Go ahead.”

“Gromwell, red ginseng, jimsonweed...”

Ye Lingchen ended the call, then logged onto Miracle Doctor Y’s official account and made an open announcement.

[I’ve just developed a new medicine that can subdue rabies. It will hit the shelves soon and eventually sell all over the world. However, I heard that Hyun-Min Kim is looking down on us Chinese people? Since that’s the case, this medicine will not be sold to the Stick Nation.]

It was just a simple announcement that gained hardly any traction in the beginning.

Miracle Doctor Y rarely made public appearances or online statements, therefore his following was quite low.

However, when people eventually noticed it, the reaction was explosive.

As explosive as a volcanic eruption! A deafeningly loud response!

Everyone was stunned.

Nobody expected Miracle Doctor Y, who was quiet all the while, to make such a grand statement out of the blue—one that got their hearts racing.

[F*ck! F*ck! F*ck!]

[That’s amazing!]

[Ahhh, so cool. Miracle Doctor Y really developed medicine for rabies. My respect for you is like the great river’s unending torrents!]

[Please receive my knee.]

[What a mighty display! Previously I thought Miracle Doctor Y was just a great healer. Never did I expect him to be the protector of our countrymen too.]

[That’s right. Those die-hard fans are useless, yet would constantly take the moral high ground and think so highly of themselves, when they’re in fact, pitiable trash.]

[Hahaha, this feels great! Take that! Go on, continue your sh*t show! Our people have ways to handle you!]

[I can truly feel our country growing stronger. This is such an encouraging and touching sight. Sob sob sob...]

[Even Miracle Doctor Y is offended. This time, the Stick Nation will suffer a great loss!]

...

That news spread all over the internet. It was just a simple statement, yet it went viral on Weibo, TikTok, Jinri Toutiao, and other major news networks. In fact, it even alerted the foreign media!

People from the Stick Nation naturally got wind of this news as well. ‘Another restriction out of the blue?’

To that, they could only laugh at it disdainfully. “Miracle Doctor Y? Who’s this?”
