Chapter 78 - Give it a thumbs up!
Chapter 78 - Give it a thumbs up!
On Wednesday afternoon, as soon as Chen Chen got home, he hurriedly turned on his computer, his eyes shining, and clicked the mouse rapidly on the screen.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Ugh, this awful internet speed! Why is it so slow?!"
"It's already gigabit speeds and you still think it's slow?"
Lin Jianlu sat on the sofa in his room, smiling helplessly.
The game is getting a major update today, and as a top-tier OP, Chen Chen naturally has to fight on the front lines of the update. Tonight is destined to be another night of being obsessed with the game and having trouble sleeping!
Sigh, when will we see him again, watching the screen, wiping away tears, and breaking down in tears, crying out "Tachi sara!"?
Sigh, all this talk about the katana doesn't make it any stronger. My friend, times have changed. The heavy crossbow is the best of the best!
However, there was one thing Lin Jianlu really admired about Chen Chen.
That means this guy really doesn't suffer from internal conflicts at all; he's completely like nothing's wrong. If it were her facing all those rumors that are spreading from the internet to offline these days, she would have already called the police to report that someone was cyberbullying and persecuting her.
Lin Jianlu felt that the only way to deliver a fatal blow to Chen Chen now was for his father, Mi, to block his 0 God account.
Apart from that, he was fearless.
Of course, one reason she thinks he is fearless might be that he believes online trends come and go quickly, and soon everyone will shift their attention to new internet celebrities, new memes, and new events, and he will soon be forgotten.
But that's not necessarily true.
Yan Yiyan said that the video will most likely get 30 million views this week.
The hype surrounding this whole affair hasn't even started to die down yet. How can Chen Chen be sure that no one will try to trip him up like that chubby girl on Monday?
Lin Jianlu increasingly felt like a worried mother, considering so many things for Chen Chen... Oh right! Speaking of mothers, it's been about twenty days since school started, and the next monthly exam is quite close, but she hasn't done anything about the system's task to help Chen Chen improve in his three subjects.
Forget it, let's get this over with as soon as possible. She doesn't want to cause any more trouble and get upset.
Thinking this, Lin Jianlu took out her phone.
While an individual's achievements certainly depend on personal effort, the course of history must also be considered.
The trend of everyone livestreaming and selling products was indeed incredibly popular a couple of years ago. Although Lin Jianlu always looked down on these things, thinking they were all scams to make money, there was nothing she could do. There were just too many fools in our country, always eager to give money away.
Using the identifier on Ming Mama's account, Lin Jianlu found an MCN agency that specializes in training and incubating live streamers. However, the company's address was in Zhengzhou, so she couldn't go there to investigate immediately. She could only spend some money to hire professionals for help.
As for how to find a professional...
Hmph, open the seafood market app, change the location to "Zhengzhou," search for "local errand services," find one with a high rating, and submit your request:
I'd like you to help me find out at "Zhengshi Zhenzhonglei Culture Media Co., Ltd." why their anchor "Mama Ming" hasn't been broadcasting for so long.
Doesn't this seem rather unprofessional? Like children playing house?
No, once you've experienced this kind of service, you'll never underestimate these guys. My grandma used to have a dog—of course, that dog has now passed away. A couple of years ago, before it died, the dog went missing once. Lin Jianlu and Chen Chen searched the whole village but couldn't find it. In desperation, they ordered a local errand service from the seafood market, and the local errand service finally found it for them.
The place they found it was unexpected: a large truck transporting dogs for meat. The agent had somehow found a large group of dog lovers who forced the truck to stop, thus allowing them to find the dogs.
When they heard the news, Lin Jianlu and Chen Chen were shocked. They originally thought that hiring an agent was just a desperate attempt, but they did not expect that the agent would be so capable that he could even stop a large truck. It was only right that he earned this money.
From then on, Lin Jianlu developed a mysterious filter on the local agents at the seafood market. These guys were just too powerful. Wouldn't it be a piece of cake for them to get any information?
But I didn't expect these guys to be so fast.
Less than half a minute later, the other party replied:
[He hooked up with a big shot on the internet, got married, and then quit. Everyone in our area who's into the online world knows about this; there's no need to ask.]
what?
Surprised by the opponent's speed, Lin Jianlu suddenly realized what was going on.
So you've hooked up with a big shot? Congratulations! One dive and you're in...
Did they defy fate and change their destiny?
[Who did you latch onto, big shot?]
She sent a message asking.
[It's supposedly based in Shanghai, but it's quite mysterious; nobody knows its exact name.]
Can you find out?
No, we can't find anything.
Okay then, you change the price, and I'll pay your consultation fee.
And so, after spending twenty yuan, Lin Jianlu learned where Ming Mama had gone.
Of course, that's not specific enough.
Even now, she still doesn't quite know the real name of this "Ming's mother".
She reopened the file Yan Yiyan had sent her earlier, trying to find clues in the comments from netizens.
"It's only because the Zhengzhou municipal government gave him face and didn't expose him; otherwise, his reputation would be even worse than it is now!"
government……
By the way, rescuing someone from drowning is often recognized by the government as an act of bravery.
Lin Jianlu thought for a moment, opened his browser, went to the official website of Zhengzhou Municipal People's Government, and searched for the words "acts of bravery and righteousness" within a specified time frame.
immediately--
"Got it!"
Thumbs up! Xie Linyu, known as "Ming Mama" in Zhengzhou, bravely jumped into the Jinshui River to save a woman who had fallen into the water.
"An ordinary name, a great deed. Recently, Ms. Xie Linyu, a citizen of Zhengzhou, stepped forward in a moment of crisis, demonstrating great love through her actions, and was awarded the title of "Hero of Zhengzhou for Righteousness and Courage" by the Zhengzhou Association for Righteous and Courageous Acts."
With her life hanging by a thread, she leaped.
Around 3 p.m. on August 26, the banks of the Jinshui River in Zhengzhou were bustling with people as usual. Suddenly, a cry of "Someone has fallen into the water!" shattered the tranquility. A woman was seen struggling desperately in the river, the water already covering her mouth and nose, her situation extremely critical.
Xie Linyu, who was taking a walk nearby, heard the cries for help and rushed to the riverbank. Seeing that the person in the water was gradually losing consciousness, she did not hesitate at all, and without even taking off her coat, she jumped into the cold and murky river.
Mr. Wang, an eyewitness at the scene, recalled: "We were all terrified. By the time we realized what was happening, the woman had already jumped in. She swam very fast and grabbed the girl who had fallen into the water, pulling her towards the shore with all her might."
She quietly left after the rescue efforts.
Due to the slippery riverbank and complex water conditions, Xie Linyu's several attempts to pull the woman ashore were unsuccessful. At this point, bystanders rallied to help; some handed over bamboo poles, others found ropes, and a young man skilled in swimming even waded into the water to assist. Finally, through everyone's combined efforts, the woman was successfully rescued and brought ashore.
After getting ashore, Xie Linyu was soaked to the bone and panting heavily. But she didn't care about herself. After seeing the woman who had fallen into the water being taken to the hospital by the arriving ambulance and confirmed to be unharmed, she wiped the water droplets off her face, picked up her wet clothes, and quietly left the scene.
"She is the bravest 'Mother Ming' in our hearts."
Afterwards, netizens posted photos taken at the scene online, quickly sparking a city-wide search for the missing person. After extensive searching, the heroine who acted bravely was finally found—she is Ms. Xie Linyu, who lives in the Zhongyuan District of Zhengzhou. As a single mother raising her daughter alone, she is always eager to help others. Because her daughter's surname is Ming, her neighbors affectionately call her "Mama Ming".
"Mother Ming's" deeds have moved countless citizens and netizens. Netizen "@中原老张" commented, "This is the backbone of Zhengzhou! Thumbs up for 'Mother Ming'!" Faced with the sudden praise, Xie Linyu seemed a little embarrassed. In an interview, she calmly said, "I really didn't think about anything at the time. I just saw a life about to disappear in front of me, and I only had one thought in my mind—to save him. I believe anyone in that situation would have done the same."
Awarding honors to promote social justice
To commend Xie Linyu for her heroic act of stepping forward at a critical moment and to promote positive social values, on September 9th, the Zhengzhou Association for Righteous and Courageous Acts, after thorough investigation and verification, officially awarded Xie Linyu the honorary title of "Zhengzhou Hero of Righteous and Courageous Acts" and called on all citizens to learn from her.
At the commendation ceremony, the head of the Zhengzhou Association for Righteous and Courageous Acts highly praised her actions: "Comrade Xie Linyu, in a critical moment when others' lives were in danger, remained calm and selflessly saved others, fully demonstrating the traditional Chinese virtue of righteousness and courage, and the excellent spirit of the people of Zhengzhou in the new era. She is the pride of our city and a role model for all citizens to learn from."
Bouquets of flowers and bursts of applause were all to pay tribute to this ordinary yet extraordinary person. In Zhengzhou, a city filled with warmth and love, "Mother Ming" Xie Linyu composed a deeply moving ode to heroism through her actions.
