Chapter 502 - A new work! (2/2)
Zhang Ye quickly said, ”Thank you.”
Wu Zeqing's had a blanket over her left arm which she opened up and spreading it across Zhang Ye's legs, ”It's a little cold in this house, so cover up to keep warm.”
”Aiya, it's OK.” Zhang Ye was spoiled by the attention.
Wu Zeqing gently said, ”Cover up well. listen to Big Sis.”
Zhang Ye could only say, ”Thank you then. Don't busy yourself with me. If you are tired, go have a rest.” Although she was no longer the president of Peking University, she was still a leader. Seeing how Old Wu was giving him so much attention, Zhang Ye felt rather bad about it.
”It's only a little past 7PM, and so it's still early.” Wu Zeqing smiled, ”I still need to wait to read your novel. If I don't get to read it today, I won't be able to sleep. Keep it up, I will close the door for you.”
He said, ”OK.”
Old Wu left and closed the door.
Zhang Ye drank the coffee in large gulps and touched the blanket that was covering his legs. He suddenly felt a warmth, thinking how Old Wu was such a caring and thoughtful person.
For Old Wu!
Write! Write! Write!
Zhang Ye started to show his prowess as his typing speed became even faster!
After a short while, the first chapter was complete. This was a slightly longer chapter that contained a little over 6000 characters.
He did not say anything since he knew that Old Wu was waiting to read it. One of the reasons why he decided to write a novel today was not only because he had listened to Old Wu's criticisms, but a larger part of it was because he wanted Old Wu to be able to read his novel, and only then was Zhang Ye be able to write with such pa.s.sion. He was always a guy who would find it hard to reject a girl. And so, Zhang Ye opened up the browser and speedily logged onto his Weibo, synchronized his account, and then activated his blog.
The development of Weibo and blogs in this world was a little different from his previous world. The blogging platform here had been the dominant one since it's release and there weren't too many other compet.i.tors as Weibo was also developed from this blogging platform and forked out into a product of its own. As such, the sign-in ID between these 2 platforms were shared since they were products of the same company anyway. Most of the information and functionalities were also cross functional and were synchronized to the account. It was extremely convenient as anything posted to the blog could be posted onto Weibo in a summarized version too.
Upload!
Post!
The controls were simple and the process of posting was completed very quickly!
Zhang Ye shouted towards the door of the room, ”Sis Wu, I've written a little and posted up a chapter already.”
A very gentle voice replied from outside, ”On your blog?”
”Yes.” Zhang Ye replied.
”OK, I will read it.” and she didn't say a word after that.
Zhang Ye did not want to delay as he knew that even though this world had ”Journey to the West”, there wasn't a ”Parody Journey to the West”, which was the basis of characters for ”Legend of Wukong”. That might leave the readers a little confused at the beginning as these characters were a little obscure. He had to rush out the back chapters so that the readers would be able to understand the initial few chapters of the novel.
The second chapter's wordcount was much lesser at 2000 to 3000 characters. Zhang Ye wanted to finish it in 30 minutes, so he concentrated hard and typed in furiously on the keyboard.
......
On the web.
Everyone was chatting about news concerning their own interests.
”Have you all watched Old He's movie?”
”I did. It was so good!”
”Water G.o.ddess has a new song out!”
”d.a.m.n, I'm so frustrated by her, she's too good at making the news!”
”But her popularity is sky high right now. Anything she posts on to Weibo are always reposted a few hundred thousand times and always has a few million comments. Everyone just likes her for doing all that nonsensical stuff.”
”To be honest, I still prefer Zhang Ye. Although his popularity is not as high as those other people and his works are not as mainstream and well publicized as others, he has really good talent! If he were as handsome as the mainstream stars and his works were more publicized, his popularity would surely improve a lot and would overtake those stars who use publicity to pump up their popularity!”
”I agree with that. If Teacher Zhang were to carry on walking down this path, his popularity would definitely go against the heavens. He's not even debuted for a full year yet, at most it's been half a year and he's already sprinting towards the B-list celebrity rankings!”
”Haha, did all of you watch the crosstalk compet.i.tion? I was so tickled by it! Zhang Ye was too funny! Those antics of his nearly made me die of laughter. How did he crush the whole crosstalk compet.i.tion all by himself!? He's really too good at stirring up trouble! I really think that Zhang Ye would do well! As long as he can continue doing what he does and the entertainment industry gives him a chance, he would definitely become a dominant presence in this f**king entertainment business!”
”What a pity that he has been banned!”
”Sigh, don't talk about that anymore. I get angry whenever someone mentions it!”
”I wonder what Teacher Zhang is doing now.”
”What else can he do? He’s been totally banned. He won't even be able to take part in compet.i.tions now since who would dare to allow him join any at all. This is literally a death sentence and I'm afraid Teacher Zhang will not be able to get out of this now.”
Suddenly, someone exclaimed!
”Zhang Ye started a blog!”
”F**k, what's the big deal about that? It's just a blog, isn't it?”
”What do you think! Go take a look quickly! There's a novel posted on the blog! It's something called 'Legend of Wukong'! I think it's Zhang Ye's new work!”
”What?”
”Are you serious?”
”d.a.m.n, it's for real!”
