Chapter 164 Being a Good Foreign Monk Who Knows How to Recite Sutras
First, there was the Century Record, worth one hundred million US dollars.
Following that, they are preparing to leverage North American online television platforms to launch a massive rap music challenge targeting the top host with his exceptional tongue.
The entire North American cultural circle is somewhat unaccustomed to this, and is also quite confused.
The writers' circle, in particular, is completely baffled.
"Isn't he a successful writer?"
"Yeah, yeah, why is it that a successful writer, especially one from an unknown country like the East, doesn't focus on promoting his literary works, but instead keeps crossing over into music creation?"
"I seriously doubt if this is the real Dongguo Yu writer?!"
"But this person seems to be quite successful in the music industry!! Putting everything else aside, just take that song 'My'..."
Don't you all think "Heart Will I Go On" is a classic? So, aren't you all really looking forward to seeing what the other nine unreleased songs on that "album of the century" will be like?!
There's been a lot of discussion both inside and outside the industry.
In short, Yu Zhen's popularity alone seems to be enough to support all kinds of entertainment gossip in the American entertainment industry, enough to allow hundreds of millions of television viewers to hunt for fresh and exciting content every day.
In the entire United States, his existence as a genius and amazing writer, music creator, and top host seems to satisfy the imagination of everyone, both inside and outside the industry.
Also.
The most outrageous and hottest topic has to be the countless people eagerly anticipating experiencing his powerful tongue firsthand.
Yu Zhen started attracting attention and unwanted attention.
First and foremost, those who took the initiative to approach him and challenge his sharp tongue were, unsurprisingly, the well-known actresses from Hollywood.
Jane Fonda was the first to come to him, and her excuse was quite perfectly legitimate.
That's because she's one of the female leads already locked in for his science fiction series.
Others came to him to discuss the depth and character development of the script.
This requires closing the door and carefully, thoroughly, and comprehensively opening up people's hearts, especially by establishing mutual trust and exchanging some strengths.
Life has gained a whole new twist.
Tsk tsk, the taste of being a fish in water, like being bombarded with sugar-coated bullets.
Honestly, it really was; it was full of exotic charm that captivated everyone.
What's even more remarkable is that after Director Qin and Deputy Director Zhang had a private talk with him last time, even though nothing particularly dramatic happened, his superiors still gave him plenty of freedom to act as he saw fit.
In other words, his current whereabouts have essentially severed ties with the delegation.
Aside from a guard who was still skilled in martial arts and responsible for 24-hour security, everyone else, including Qin Zhongkai and Zhang Fushi, had temporarily parted ways with him.
The Americans are undoubtedly the most delighted by this change.
Especially Tang Jinmao, that old fellow, he would boast to everyone that he used his extraordinary wealth and resources to retain Yu Zhen's men in one fell swoop, and that he had made a great contribution to the world of capital.
"Sigh, that's reality. No matter how high-profile you are while you're in the country, once you're abroad, if anyone gets a chance to be superior, they'll cling to you tightly—"
"There's nothing we can do; that's just how talented Writer Yu is!"
"That's right. We all went abroad, but none of you would dare to pull such a stunt and overstay your visa. Your family would be furious in no time. You can't compare, you really can't compare!"
The members of the delegation, with their numerous sources of information in North America, quickly learned the truth about Yu Zhen's "departure from the group and going solo."
As a result, everyone's mouths tasted incredibly sour.
As for their feelings, they probably felt even worse.
Unfortunately, being in North America, the moment they landed, they were immediately bombarded with the impact of what a high-tech, modern, capitalist world truly meant.
Compared to the poverty and backwardness of China, where even for ordinary people, the desire to eat a full meal every day is a huge luxury and a distant dream.
Deep down, everyone felt only repression, sighs, and an uncontrollable sense of resentment, wondering why they couldn't stay and live in this dazzling world.
Yu Zhen's sudden solo departure, and the fact that the great writer Yu Zhen stirred up countless storms across the United States in just a few days, propelled him to become a renowned top cultural figure.
These things, imperceptibly, make everyone feel increasingly depressed and cold.
Of course, compared to Yu Zhen's achievements, everyone is dissatisfied in various ways.
But in reality, this is the treatment each person receives.
Even if we say that the average person is subjected to "sweet and sugary" treatment, it is far less sweet and irresistible than Yu Zhen's. But with whom should we compare this treatment?
Compared to what it used to be in China.
That's really true; one is in the heavens, and the other is on the earth.
Anyway, if we're not careful, it's entirely reasonable and unexpected that a few more people might become so engrossed in their pleasures that they forget their homeland. It's just human nature.
Fortunately, as this was the first government-sponsored delegation after the establishment of diplomatic relations, they were very cautious in all aspects.
The Americans also know that if they rush to remove all of these hundred or so people from their positions now, it will be difficult to find highly intelligent and top-notch talents to be sent out by the Duke of Dongguo in the future.
One sentence sums it all up: During their time in North America, every member of the delegation received VIP-level treatment.
In everyone's eyes, what they can see and come into contact with is the most dazzling, glamorous side of the world of capital.
Amidst the dazzling array of sights, some easily fooled individuals found the seed of the most beautiful Western Hemisphere deeply planted in their hearts.
In short, the Americans of 1979 were confident, composed, and proud.
She can be considered very tolerant, especially in terms of her international image, which is so dazzling, crystal clear, and alluring.
In comparison, everyone knows that the Eastern Kingdom is very tough, poor but ruthless, and incredibly stubborn.
That's all.
Now that Yu Zhen has arrived, he has brought a completely new perspective and understanding of the people of Dongguo.
At least within the North American Chinese community, in addition to the Bruce Lee and Kung Fu that were all the rage a few years ago, there is now considerable talk about cultural heritage.
A nation of one billion people may produce one or two world-class cultural figures.
Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
She took control of North American Online, a media platform with hundreds of millions of television viewers, and became its top host. Subsequently, she personally planned and directed two consecutive episodes of "The Best Tongue" and a super live interview show, which became huge hits.
The show has garnered an astonishing following, especially among lower and middle-class North American citizens.
Unfortunately, in another time and space, in the internet age, various online variety shows that use eye-catching appeal as their selling point have been immersed in this environment for many years.
In addition, no matter what, he is still an outsider monk who chants scriptures, and he still has an irreplaceable sense of novelty.
Our ancestors wisely summarized it: "Foreign monks are better at chanting scriptures."
Similarly, this phenomenal figure in Eastern culture, now with a grand platform to showcase his abilities, is like a dragon entering the sea—truly a powerful force.
