Chapter 1156: Slapping the Foreign Internet

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Wanyuan’s post clearly hit the pride of the Han people again.

What was a Chinese knot? 

That was clearly the knot of Han Country!! 

Their Han Country had just declared this technology as a cultural heritage. Now, Xia Wanyuan actually said something about a Chinese knot for no reason. It was simply unreasonable.

[What Chinese knot? The thief is shameless. Are the Chinese used to stealing things? We’ve already applied for the Chinese knot!!]

[Report! It’s too disgusting. I hate China the most. They boast that they’re in the country every day and steal everything from others.]

[ Trash Xia Wanyuan, trash China, the Han Country knot is ours. ]

Under Xia Wanyuan’s post, the netizens of Country Han cursed 240,000 comments.

Xia Wanyuan quickly uploaded the popular science video about the Chinese knot.

Xia Wanyuan had found a large number of technical talents to help make these videos in a short period of time. Not only were there various styles of Chinese knots, but there were also dozens of categories.

There was also Xia Wanyuan’s text explanation.

“The Book of Changes.” “In ancient times, it was ruled by a rope. In the future, the Saint Yi Zhi used a book contract.” In the Book of Changes, Zheng Xuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty said, “The knot is a contract. The matter is big, the big knot is the rope. The matter is small, the small knot is the rope…”

The classic quote was reasonable. Compared to the incompetent anger in the comments, Xia Wanyuan’s video was much more convincing.

Now, Xia Wanyuan’s every move would cause the media to fight to report. The news of her posting a popular science video on the Internet quickly swept through the country.

The netizens had always been dissatisfied with the Han people’s actions of snatching things from China, but there was nothing they could do about it. After all, China did not have much say on foreign websites.

This time, with an influential account like Xia Wanyuan clarifying, the netizens spontaneously registered an outside account and collectively climbed over the wall to support Xia Wanyuan on the outside.

There had always been a saying in the country.

The wall between the external and internal networks was to protect foreign netizens, not domestic netizens.

After all, there were more than a billion Chinese people, and the number of netizens was even greater. Even if only a small portion of them went out, their combat strength was still on par with foreign netizens.

Hence, the comments section that was originally occupied by the insults of the Country Han netizens

after the Chinese netizens settled in, it completely became the territory of the Chinese netizens.

[Aiyo, I heard that a son tried to steal your father’s things. Let me see which unfilial son is looking for a beating?]

[ Amazing, we don’t even dare to scold Xia Wanyuan ourselves. You’re quite amazing. You actually scolded her 240,000 comments. You’re so amazing. ]

[ I’m here to support our goddess! The pickle originated from China!! The Chinese knot is our country’s cultural heritage!!! Repeat these two sentences a hundred times!! Shameless Han people! ]

The Chinese netizens were full of fighting spirit. Soon, the original scolding comments were all covered up and replaced by all sorts of popular science comments and videos.

The netizens from other countries were originally here to watch the commotion, but no one was stupid.

The two parties who quarreled would only be helpless and furious when they had conclusive historical evidence. Everyone naturally knew who was right and wrong.

Not only was Xia Wanyuan’s popular science video not reported successfully, but it also became one of the top ten popular videos that day and became a clear stream among the many foreign videos on the Internet.

After Jun Shiling’s meeting, when he returned to the office, he saw Xia Wanyuan typing angrily on her phone.

He walked over and saw that Xia Wanyuan was using Han words to explain the history of Han Country to the netizens.

Over the years, in order to improve the national pride of their country, Country Han had tampered with textbooks. Many citizens of Country Han thought that their country had more than five thousand years of history and even naturally thought that they were the origin of East Asian culture.

Xia Wanyuan displayed all sorts of historical facts and forcefully explained to them.

Many Country Han netizens could not take the sudden impact and cursed crazily in the comments, making Xia Wanyuan even angrier.

Jun Shiling smiled and took Xia Wanyuan’s phone away. “Alright, baby.”

Xia Wanyuan turned around, her eyes clearly unhappy.

Although this thought was very wrong, Jun Shiling did like to see Xia Wanyuan angry.

She was not as gentle as usual. When Xia Wanyuan was angry, her eyes were filled with dignity. However, in front of Jun Shiling, her expression was a little delicate and her cheeks were slightly puffed up, making her look extremely cute.

“I wouldn’t have known if I didn’t look at it. So that’s how foreigners see China. So the rest of the world doesn’t know China at all.”

Perhaps because of the influence of her thoughts in her previous life, Xia Wanyuan had rarely paid attention to the thoughts of people in other parts of the world towards China.

After all, in her previous life, China was the most advanced country in the world. The gazes from other places were filled with submission and envy. There was no such phenomenon as being casually insulted today.

“Your impression can always change slowly.” Jun Shiling walked over and kissed Xia Wanyuan’s face comfortingly. “Don’t be angry.”

“I’m angry.” Xia Wanyuan’s cheeks puffed up slightly. “The Han Country in history was once my vassal country and even came to worship me. At that time, the Han Country even had to queue to obtain the right to worship.”

At that time, Han Country was a subsidiary country of China. Their ruler was a “prince” personally conferred by Xia Wanyuan. He could not even be considered a king.

Jun Shiling patted Xia Wanyuan’s back comfortingly. “Our queen, calm down.”

Xia Wanyuan glanced at Jun Shiling and did not speak.

She was still angry.

In Xia Wanyuan’s heart, this was similar to rebellion. How could the heirs of the Han Country back then dare to speak to me like this? (italics)

Jun Shiling was both amused and heartbroken. He pulled Xia Wanyuan’s hand. “I’ll help you.”

Soon, Jun Shiling’s official Weibo posted a post.

@ Jun Shiling: “The Jun Corporation and the Xiafeng Group will set up a specialized overseas cultural company to promote and develop Chinese culture. @ Xia Wanyuan, wife, calm down.”

The number of followers on Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan’s Weibo kept rising.

At this moment, the number of fans on their Weibo had exceeded 100 million.

The moment Jun Shiling posted on Weibo, it immediately attracted a large number of netizens.

[I don’t know if I should say that Jun Shiling is awesome or that Jun Shiling is too much. If you set up a company, so be it. What’s the meaning of this dog food? Isn’t it too much?]

[ Ahhhhh, I like Xia Wanyuan too much!!! I can imagine the scene of Xia Wanyuan’s cheeks bulging from the kimchi incident and CEO Jun coaxing his wife. ]

[What kind of beautiful love is this? I’m crying. I just want to say that the two of you deserve to be happy for the rest of your lives. Also, this company was established beautifully!! Our China has so many brilliant cultures. We should go out of the country and let the foreigners see how amazing China is!]

Weibo was lively, and the Internet was noisy.

Although Xia Wanyuan’s popular science video had only caused a small fluctuation on the Internet,

However, some people had already acutely sensed the change in the wind.

For a long time, China’s shortcoming of lacking the right to speak internationally might be completely resolved by Xia Wanyuan.

Hence, that day, the officials sent someone to contact Xia Wanyuan and expressed their willingness to work with her. They invited Xia Wanyuan to become the spokesperson for China’s traditional culture and work on promoting China’s cultural image.

Xia Wanyuan happily agreed.

After the news spread, there was another shock in the country.

Xia Wanyuan’s image had undoubtedly obtained the official approval.

With the enhancement of this halo image, Xia Wanyuan’s status rapidly increased.

“Tsk tsk, say, this Xia Wanyuan is really something. She used the pickle incident to fiercely earn the favor of her countrymen. Now, she even has a cultural spokesperson.”

“Jun Shiling is standing behind her. What can’t she do?” Su Yueran held a glass of red wine and was sitting peacefully on the sofa, listening to her manager’s continuous complaints.

“I just feel that it’s not worth it for you. I think this Xia Wanyuan might be doing it on purpose. Every time you’re in the limelight, she’ll appear. This time, you’re clearly promoting your new movie. Why did she jump out to make a popular science video? She’s really too much.”

In order to hook Su Yueran up with the international film industry, the company had specially invested five million yuan in public relations to promote Su Yueran’s collaboration with Director Charon, as well as Su Yueran’s new movie with an international director.

Unexpectedly, after spending five million, all sorts of publicity began. At this moment, Xia Wanyuan jumped out.

She easily focused all the netizens’ attention on her. The company’s five million yuan in public relations fees disappeared without even hearing a sound.

Su Yueran took a sip of red wine. “Alright, stop complaining. I’m going out later.”

“Okay, do you need a bodyguard to follow you?”

“No need.” Su Yueran put down the wine glass, stood up, tidied her clothes, and walked out.

In a quiet clubhouse in Beijing, a straight figure was sitting in a private room by the lake.

At the agreed time, the woman looked up at the watch on her wrist and frowned.

Just as she stood up, the door suddenly opened and Su Yueran walked in with a smile.

“Sister, why are you in such a hurry to leave? I haven’t seen you in three years, but you’re still so punctual.”

“How did you know that I returned to Beijing?” The person who spoke was straightforward with the neatness of a soldier.

Su Yueran walked to the table and gestured for the person to sit down. “It’s been three years since we last met, but Sister Wei is still so beautiful.”

Lin Wei ignored Su Yueran’s flattery and sat down with her. “If there’s anything, just say it.”

“It’s not that I have anything on.” Su Yueran poured a cup of tea for Lin Wei. “Sister, didn’t you receive the invitation?”

Lin Wei was stunned. “What invitation?”

“Brother Lin Qingyuan’s birthday and his inauguration ceremony.” Su Yueran glanced at Lin Wei. “Why? Didn’t Brother Lin Qingyuan send you an invitation?”

Lin Wei shook her head. “No, since he didn’t send an invitation, I won’t go.”

Lin Wei had only taken a few days off when she returned from the southwest this time. Coincidentally, her mentor was in Beijing, so Lin Wei came to visit. She did not expect Su Yueran to know that she had returned.

“That won’t do.” Su Yueran smiled. “Although Brother Lin Qingyuan didn’t say it, your father said that he wanted me to remind you to be extremely present.”

Lin Wei nodded. “I understand. Is there anything else?”

Su Yueran shook her head. “No, but I personally want to ask you a question.”

“Tell me.”

“Sister, do you know Jun Shiling?” As Su Yueran spoke, she quietly observed Lin Wei’s expression.

Lin Wei nodded. “I know.”

“How did you meet him? I remember that Sister is stationed in the southwest all year round. How did you have the chance to meet Jun Shiling?”

Lin Wei looked at Su Yueran in confusion. “He’s the richest man in China and the head of the Jun family. Don’t you know him?”

Su Yueran observed Lin Wei’s expression seriously. Seeing that her expression was normal, she smiled. “No, of course I know him. I was just asking casually. Sister, don’t mind me.”

Lin Wei stood up. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first. I still have something on.”

Su Yueran also stood up. “Okay, I’ll leave too. Where are you going, Sister? I’ll send you.”

“No need. I’m going to the courtyard. You can’t enter.” As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Wei left the private room.

Behind her, a dark glint flashed across Su Yueran’s eyes.

Although Lin Wei was from the Lin family, she had grown up in the camp and was difficult to control.

Su Yueran could not get any news from her and could only give up.

Feng Wuyou leaned lazily on the sofa, hugging potato chips and coke as she scrolled through Weibo happily.

“Wow!! He’s too handsome!!” Feng Wuyou wanted to exclaim from time to time.

Not far away, Xuan Sheng, who was working, could not stand Feng Wuyou’s noisy appearance. “Can you not follow me? I’ve given you my card and car. Go wherever you want. Just don’t hang around in front of me.”

Feng Wuyou bit off a potato chip. “I don’t want to go. It’s more comfortable here.”

With that, Feng Wuyou placed the coke on the table. “To be honest, Old Xuan, you have good taste. I like Xia Wanyuan’s personality too much. She’s so beautiful. Tell me, why are you so disappointing? Why did you let that old-fashioned Jun Shiling seize the initiative?”

Xuan Sheng had lost count of how many times this conversation had happened today. He rubbed his temples with a headache. “Shut up.”

Feng Wuyou pursed his lips. “No, do you have Xia Wanyuan’s contact information? I want to play with her. She seems very interesting.”

Xuan Sheng frowned. “No.”

“Tsk.” Feng Wuyou waved his hair. “You’re too pitiful.”

Forget it, I don’t have any hopes for Xuan Sheng anymore. He liked Xia Wanyuan for so long but he doesn’t even have her contact number. It’s too depressing. (italics)

Thinking of how the netizens on Weibo had mentioned that Xia Wanyuan was teaching at Qing University, Feng Wuyou stood up.

“I’m going to donate a building to Qing University. Will the Qing University let me go in and listen to the lecture?”
