Evening.
Using the username and password given by the company, Lin Yuan logged into Xian Yuâs Tribe account.
As soon as he signed in, a series of notification sounds came from his computer, most of them being private messages.
Lin Yuan was not unfamiliar with this.
Chu Kuangâs Tribe account was like this, too. He received countless fan messages every day. He would like to reply but it was simply too much, so he could only give them a cursory glance every time.
He adeptly turned off the sound notifications.
Lin Yuan looked at Xian Yuâs follower count.
To his surprise, even though Xian Yuâs account had only just been created less than a day ago, it already had over ten million followersâ¦
Obviously,
The Tribeâs official account had used big data to drive the stream.
Otherwise, even with Xian Yuâs popular identification, not everyone would be immediately aware of the accountâs existence.
The account name was simply Xian Yu.
The bio read: [Top Composer, head representative of the composition department on the ninth floor of Starlight Entertainment.]
He opened the comment section.
Lin Yuan found the comment section quite lively.
âThe real Envious Fish?â
âIâm happy, my idol has finally made a Tribe account, the official verification must be legit!â
âAh I love âRed Roseâ so much!â
âMany celebrities have recently joined Tribe, a long live to Teacher Admirable Fish, it has been so long since I heard Teacher Admirable Fishâs new songs!â
âSong request!â
âAdd one more for song request!â
âThank Tribe for providing a public platform for fans to request songs from
Teacher Admirable Fish!â
âEnvious Fishâs fans, please join group xxxxxxx.â
Song requests werenât unusual.
On Lin Yuanâs Chu Kuang account, the messages he received every day were all requests for updates.
Same idea.
After searching for Chu Kuang, Lin Yuan followed him with the Xian Yu account, and then he posted a status update using Xian Yuâs account:
âHello everyone, Iâm Xian Yu. A song composed by my apprentice, Carp, titled
âForestâ, will be coming out in April. Stay tuned.â
The song by Xue Liang was named âThe Forestâ.
However, the fansâ focus wasnât on the song at allâ¦
âWhat!â
âCarp?
âXian Yuâs apprentice?â
âHahaha, why am I laughing?â
âSo because the master is a Fish, the apprentice is a fish too?â
âIâll support it simply because your apprentice is also a Fish.â
Lin Yuan, barely looking at the comments, then shared Xian Yuâs status update with Chu Kuangâs account, with only two words:
âExcited!â
Chu Kuang, having been influential for quite some time now, already had over thirty million loyal followers. So, this repost had quite a significant effect.
âThe old rascal Chu Kuang actually posted a status update?â
âIâm astonished, is Chu Kuang still alive?â
âGood grief, finally posted an update after so long, turns out itâs just a promotion for someone else?â
âWait⦠is this Xian Yuâs Tribe?â
âThat songwriter, Xian Yu? He opened a Tribe account?â
âLetâs follow for now.â
âDoes Chu Kuang old rascal know Xian Yu?â
âWhat the hell, the only account Chu Kuang follows is Xian Yu, this must be true love!â
âWho is Xian Yu?â
âYou can just search for Xian Yuâs song and youâll find out.
Fans who follow Chu Kuang know well that this old rascal barely uses Tribe, and is even too lazy to promote his new books there.
Even when Biyaoâs death caused an uproar among his readers, there wasnât a single response from Chu Kuangâs Tribe account!
Some people even doubted whether Chu Kuang had forgotten his Tribe accountâs password.
And yet todayâ¦
Chu Kuang finally updated his status!
Moreover, it was promoting a new song for Xian Yuâs apprentice!
What intrigued readers more was that Chu Kuang didnât follow anyone before today when he followed Xian Yu who just joined Tribe!
Following only Xian Yu?
Is Chu Kuang fan of Xian Yu?
Or do they know each other in real life?
Fans couldnât resist their curiosity and started speculating. Some clicked on Xian Yuâs account to check, and they all were stunned.
Becauseâ¦
Xian Yu also followed only Chu Kuang!
If it werenât for the fact that their fields of interest widely differing, people would suspect they are actually the same person!
But everyone knows this canât be the case.
How can a novelist like Chu Kuang be the same person as Xian Yu?
Everyone knows Xian Yu is a music composer.
As people started noticing this phenomenon more, curiosity increased even more and people couldnât resist asking questions in the comment sections of both accounts:
âDo you guys know each other?â
âAre you good buddies offline too?â
âWhat positions do you guys use?â
âWhoâs the dominant one? Whoâs the submissive one?
ââ¦Wait, does anyone know the genders of Chu Kuang and Xian Yu?
âIt seems like both of them are quite mysterious, they never reveal anything about their personal lives, not even their genders. Itâs possible that Xian Yu and Chu Kuang are actually girls, right?â
âWouldnât that be even more exciting?â
Lin Yuan logged into Chu Kuangâs account on his phone while using Xian Yuâs account on his computer. After following each other and reposting each otherâs posts, he felt a bit embarrassed because of this identity split. But after seeing the hilarious comments from the netizens, he couldnât help but be caught off guard by the reactions.
However, he didnât have any intentions of explaining it.
Because Lin Yuan noticed something interesting.
A lot of Chu Kuangâs fans started following Xian Yu.
And Some fans from Xian Yuâs side also followed Chu Kuangâs account.
The two accounts were supporting each other?
If there was more interaction between the two accounts, would the effect be even better?
Lin Yuan seemed to have found a shortcut to complete his tasks!
The only pity was that the followers of Xian Yuâs account couldnât be added to Chu Kuangâs follower count.
Otherwise, it would be a two-for-one effect.
Another point Lin Yuan noticed was that many followers of both accounts were from Qi Continent, showing that people from Qi Continent were slowly getting acquainted with Xian Yu and Chu Kuang.
Since the merge of Qin and Qi, things were slowly starting to consolidate.
Thatâs the benefit of having a common language-no barriers to communication.
Just then,
Lin Yuan suddenly had a clever thought. He now had a way to increase his reputation in paintingâ
He could register a new account on Tribe specifically for publishing his artwork!
Normally, posting some artwork on Tribe would hardly gather any attention. But what if there was someone influential backing it?
Chu Kuang and Xian Yu were both such influential figuresâ¦
And these two accounts would only grow more popular in the future.
If those two accounts both promoted his own artwork, it would be seen by many more people!
In this wayâ¦
His reputation in painting could skyrocket!
But itâs usually hard for ordinary people to appreciate.
So he must figure out a way to make his painting captivating enough for fans to stick around.
At this point, Lin Yuan thought of Manga.
He asked the system: âManga is also considered painting, right?â
The system answered: âYes.â
Lin Yuan smiled. He didnât even need the systemâs help to create an already existing Manga, and that Manga wasâ¦
Chu Kuangâs âKing of the Netâ!
