Chapter 1204 Internet-addicted Youths

After he became the ambassador, they first held an activity. Gu Jingyu would go online at night and take part in a team battle. He would fight alongside other players.
The team battle involved putting a group of players against another group to obtain resources. Whoever won would get the resources.
At night, Gu Jingyu went online. Lin Che and Gu Jingze watched from behind.
He used the computer in Gu Jingze’s study room. Gu Jingyu specially bought a gaming keyboard. He warmed up his wrists. He was much more familiar with the game after playing it for a few days. It was usually easier for guys, anyway. It was not his first time playing games either. He was simply familiarizing himself with the controls this time.
Very soon, Gu Jingyu was online. His team was made up of Crooked Neck and the rest.
They had long been gaming experts and wanted to experience this battle too.
Furthermore, they did not want to include those professional gamers in the team. If the team was too good and defeated their opponents too quickly, there would be no meaning in playing.
Once matched, the opposing players immediately saw that gold and shiny outfit.
Words flashed on the screen.
“Damn! How lucky can we be to get matched against Gu Jingyu’s team?”
“How can we still battle like this?”
At the same time, they streamed this battle live online.
Many fangirls already joined the live stream.
They flooded the comments. “Jingyu, attack over there.”
“Jingyu is so cool.”
“Jingyu’s character looks like him too.”
“…”
Lin Che looked at the words on the screen and thought, How did it look like him?
Did the fangirls have some problems with their eyes?
The live broadcast already caught up with the screen speed. Within minutes, everyone could not really see what was happening. They only knew that the screen was getting flooded with gifts. Obviously, Gu Jingyu’s popularity was really unbeatable. He had only just returned in this production and so many people already came rushing in hordes because of his name.
The opponents wondered what the fangirls were doing. Did the fangirls really expect them to die?
They said in contempt, “Fine, fine. Let’s all target Gu Jingyu.”
The players immediately rushed to attack Gu Jingyu, who was still respawning.
Gu Jingyu quickly evaded them. “Oh my god, oh my god. No way, you’re attacking me after I just taunted you?”
Lin Che saw and quickly said, “Hey, hey, hey. We’re in a live stream.”
Gu Jingyu then remembered that they were being broadcasted live.
“Oh-oh. Just cut away my words just now. I’m not scolding anything. All I’m saying is: why are all these people attacking me?!”
After seeing that Gu Jingyu actually had such a side to him online, everyone could not help but feel amazed.
“Gu Jingyu is so cute.”
“I just knew it. Gu Jingyu normally appears aloof only because he can’t be bothered with those reporters. He’s actually a warm person.”
“Gu Jingyu’s hands are beautiful.”
In any case, anything about Gu Jingyu was a good thing.
Gu Jingze rolled his eyes.
However, some people also noticed something else.
“What’s going on? I just heard a woman’s voice.”
“Isn’t that Gu Jingyu’s agent?”
“His agent is male.”
“That woman’s voice sounded like Lin Che’s.”
“Are they together right now?”
“Wow! It’s like I discovered an incredible secret.”
In addition, someone suddenly asked, “Why do I feel like Gu Jingyu’s live stream venue is a posh place?”
“Yeah. It feels like somewhere very fancy.”
“You guys forgot that Gu Jingyu is a Gu. He’s probably at one of the villas owned by the Gu family.”
“So rich.”
“So, Lin Che is with him at his family’s villa? Lin Che is so lucky. She can visit the Gu family’s villa by following Gu Jingyu.”
“Apparently, outsiders are not allowed to enter. It is completely surrounded by guards.”
“Oh my, look! Jingyu got killed again.”
Crooked Neck and the rest already tried their best to protect Gu Jingyu.
However, Crooked Neck later realized that the opponents really went around to look for Gu Jingyu.
Crooked Neck and the gang persisted on the game-first attitude. They went straight to their opponent’s base to loot resources.
After all, victory was based on winning the game and not the number of kills.
This was a rather strategy-centric game and not a simple kill-or-be-killed game.
Later, they decided to just let Gu Jingyu be bait. While he was getting attacked, they did not rush to help him.
At first, Gu Jingyu still minded his image. Later on, he was so angry that he lost it.
“You guys did it on purpose, didn’t you?”
“Wow, Crooked Neck. You left me there so that I could be bait, didn’t you?”
“Oh my god. You guys are making me the bait. Just you guys wait. I have feelings too, you know.”
“KG, why are you like this too?”
Because Gu Jingyu’s performance was so unusual, this live stream was soon one of the hottest headlines.
It said that Gu Jingyu was playing a game in a live stream. The young gamer was swearing nonstop and was totally different from the Gu Jingyu they knew on screen.
Everyone saw this and were curious. Just how different could he be?
Thus, yet another wave of people joined to watch.
After that, even the players playing with Gu Jingyu gained fame.
“What does that Crooked Neck do?”
“Who is KG?”
“Who did they team up with? Professional teammates?”
Everyone laughed and watched. The night was filled with continuous funny moments. One live broadcast brought about so much entertainment.
As a result, the game continued being all the rage the next day. This went without saying.
The number of downloads in one night already went over one billion.
The number of registered users also doubled.
Lin Che was over the moon. The gaming platform said that this year’s hottest game would most likely be Ray of Light. Lin Che saw this and only felt that the money spent had not gone to waste.
However, everyone naturally was unaware that Lin Che was behind the creation of this game. That was why they were still talking about how Lin Che was lucky to choose the right script. The game blew up, so the TV spin-off was not going to be bad either.
Of course, there were also people who said that the show might be done poorly. This made the fans feel very unjust.
At the film set, everyone was very busy due to the high expectations of the audience. Everyone felt that they should not let the audience down. They all put their best foot forward.
Gu Jingyu and Lin Che’s exchanges were always spontaneous, so they did not rely on scripts here either. They began to play fervently.
Through his days as ambassador, Gu Jingyu felt that this game was indeed very fun. He became addicted and was constantly playing whenever he had free time.
Lin Che watched from the side, feeling both happy and worried at the same time.
She said, “Don’t get too caught up playing that you neglect the acting.”
“Ha. Don’t kill the golden goose when it has ceased its purpose. Didn’t you see the number of registrations I attract every day?”
“Yes, I saw it. Now, the Weibo headlines are all about how Internet-addicted youth, Gu Jingyu, is addicted to a game. Of course, the number of people going to play is high… Your name is constantly hung there.”
