Chapter 206: Chapter 194: King of the Net in Comics __1
Translator: 549690339
Evening.
Using the username and password given by the company, Lin Yuan logged into Xian Yu’s 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 Kuang’s 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 Yu’s follower count.
To his surprise, even though Xian Yu’s account had only just been created less than a day ago, it already had over ten million followers…
Obviously,
The Tribe’s official account had used big data to drive the stream.
Otherwise, even with Xian Yu’s popular identification, not everyone would be immediately aware of the account’s 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.
“The real Envious Fish?”
“I’m happy, my idol has finally made a Tribe account, the official verification must be legit!”
“Ah I love ‘Red Rose’ so much!”
“Many celebrities have recently joined Tribe, a long live to Teacher Admirable Fish, it has been so long since I heard Teacher Admirable Fish’s new songs!”
“Song request!”
“Add one more for song request!”
“Thank Tribe for providing a public platform for fans to request songs from
Teacher Admirable Fish!”
“Envious Fish’s fans, please join group xxxxxxx.”
Song requests weren’t unusual.
On Lin Yuan’s 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 Yu’s account:
“Hello everyone, I’m Xian Yu. A song composed by my apprentice, Carp, titled
‘Forest’, will be coming out in April. Stay tuned.”
The song by Xue Liang was named “The Forest”.
However, the fans’ focus wasn’t on the song at all…
“What!”
“Carp?
“Xian Yu’s apprentice?”
“Hahaha, why am I laughing?”
“So because the master is a Fish, the apprentice is a fish too?”
“I’ll support it simply because your apprentice is also a Fish.”
Lin Yuan, barely looking at the comments, then shared Xian Yu’s status update with Chu Kuang’s account, with only two words:
“Excited!”
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.
“The old rascal Chu Kuang actually posted a status update?”
“I’m astonished, is Chu Kuang still alive?”
“Good grief, finally posted an update after so long, turns out it’s just a promotion for someone else?”
“Wait… is this Xian Yu’s Tribe?”
“That songwriter, Xian Yu? He opened a Tribe account?’
“Let’s follow for now.”
“Does Chu Kuang old rascal know Xian Yu?”
“What the hell, the only account Chu Kuang follows is Xian Yu, this must be true love!”
“Who is Xian Yu?”
“You can just search for Xian Yu’s song and you’ll 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 Biyao’s death caused an uproar among his readers, there wasn’t a single response from Chu Kuang’s Tribe account!
Some people even doubted whether Chu Kuang had forgotten his Tribe account’s password.
And yet today…
Chu Kuang finally updated his status!
Moreover, it was promoting a new song for Xian Yu’s apprentice!
What intrigued readers more was that Chu Kuang didn’t 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 couldn’t resist their curiosity and started speculating. Some clicked on Xian Yu’s account to check, and they all were stunned.
Because…
Xian Yu also followed only Chu Kuang!
If it weren’t for the fact that their fields of interest widely differing, people would suspect they are actually the same person!
But everyone knows this can’t 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 couldn’t resist asking questions in the comment sections of both accounts:
“Do you guys know each other?”
“Are you good buddies offline too?”
“What positions do you guys use?”
“Who’s the dominant one? Who’s the submissive one?
“…Wait, does anyone know the genders of Chu Kuang and Xian Yu?
“It seems like both of them are quite mysterious, they never reveal anything about their personal lives, not even their genders. It’s possible that Xian Yu and Chu Kuang are actually girls, right?”
“Wouldn’t that be even more exciting?”
Lin Yuan logged into Chu Kuang’s account on his phone while using Xian Yu’s account on his computer. After following each other and reposting each other’s posts, he felt a bit embarrassed because of this identity split. But after seeing the hilarious comments from the netizens, he couldn’t help but be caught off guard by the reactions.
However, he didn’t have any intentions of explaining it.
Because Lin Yuan noticed something interesting.
A lot of Chu Kuang’s fans started following Xian Yu.
And Some fans from Xian Yu’s side also followed Chu Kuang’s 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 Yu’s account couldn’t be added to Chu Kuang’s 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.
That’s 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 painting—
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 figures…
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 way…
His reputation in painting could skyrocket!
But it’s 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: “Manga is also considered painting, right?”
The system answered: “Yes.”
Lin Yuan smiled. He didn’t even need the system’s help to create an already existing Manga, and that Manga was…
Chu Kuang’s “King of the Net”!
