"Chairman, the young master has been in the countryside for three years."
"Does he know his mistake now?"
"No, but he has now led the rural enterprise to go public a...
Xu Shang dialed a number on his mobile phone. After the call was connected, Xu Shang said solemnly.
"Director Zhou, I want to ask you to do me a favor!"
"Director Zhou?"
The other end of the phone was silent for ten seconds before he quickly said, "Sorry, I'm a little uncomfortable with this all of a sudden."
Director Jiao raised his head and looked at the sun outside the window, making sure that the sun did not rise from the west today, and then pinched his thigh.
Hiss! It hurts!
Well, it seems that this is not an illusion or a dream.
only--
Xu Shang, call him Director Zhou?
It would be fine if someone else called him that, but this is Xu Shang!
Director Jiao found that he actually felt flattered at this moment. It was as if he was the heroine in a melodramatic romance drama who had been abused by the hero thousands of times but inexplicably developed a liking for him.
Why does this feeling so awkward?
He regained his composure and thought about the current public opinion on the Internet and in society. He couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that Xu Shang had suffered a major blow? That caused his personality to change drastically?
Director Jiao then cleared his throat and said, "Xiao Xu, I watched your video! Regardless of what the current social voices are, I strongly agree with the content of your video."
"But our society is still in a relatively crude stage of development. Many things are too barbaric and many things are not understood by everyone... I will try to find professionals to popularize your ideas, but you have to learn to accept the current reality. After all, Rome was not built in a day."
Xu Shang: “…”
"Well, I just want to ask you to do me a favor!"
…
At the same time, watching the mainstream media's criticism of Internet addiction and seeing the voices of resistance on the Internet gradually dying down, Professor Yang couldn't help but smile.
To be honest, this time he was really scared.
But the result is obviously good. The general public obviously recognizes the existence of Internet addiction and approves of the treatment of Internet addiction. Even thanks to Xu Shang, Professor Yang's name has become known to more parents.
Today, he has apparently become a leader in the field of treating Internet addiction!
Once social influence increases, fame, wealth, status and honor will become easy to obtain:
An academic journal called him and said they wanted to ask him for a paper on Internet addiction; a publishing house contacted him to discuss the publication of works related to Internet addiction; a local leader contacted him and said he would soon be selected for a scientific and technological achievement award.
The little monkey who overestimated his own capabilities and tried to challenge the Buddha is being suppressed by the Five Finger Mountain of public opinion. Countless parents are loudly demanding that Xu Shang be brought to justice and severely punished.
It's all so wonderful!
Just when Professor Yang was enjoying the happiness brought by his success, a parent called him and said, "Professor Yang, Xu Shang called you!"
Professor Yang said that after he knew about it, he curiously opened Xu Shang’s video.
For the winner, the whining of the loser is sometimes a wonderful reward.
The name of the video is very simple, it is called "Professor Yang, I have something to say to you."
In the video, Xu Shang sat at the table and stared at the camera: "Professor Yang, since you opened a gratitude education school. I think you should have a lot of experience in education, right?"
"If that's the case, then do you dare to compete with me? Let's find a group of senior high school students and compare their college entrance examination scores to see whether your so-called education center is useful or not!"
"Do you dare? Or is the so-called Gratitude Education Center just a mental hospital? A vicious prison? A tool for you to make money!?"
Professor Yang frowned slightly. This kid actually wanted to make a comeback.
Naturally, he could not give Xu Shang this opportunity, so Professor Yang made a video response - of course, he would rather ignore Xu Shang completely, but Xu Shang's influence was still there. If Xu Shang seized the opportunity to hype it up, maybe there would be more trouble.
Soon, Professor Yang released his own video.
"…If Xu Shang, who is deeply addicted to the Internet, wants to challenge me, I can give him the opportunity…"
In the video, Professor Yang's face is kind and generous.
He was naturally generous because he knew that Xu Shang had no chance of challenging him. As long as public opinion continued to ferment, the video website would be forced to take down all of Xu Shang's videos under pressure from parents, if not ban his account.
By then, who would know who Xu Shang was?
Who would care about Xu Shang’s challenge?
Now the mainstream media's public opinion is on his side. To him, Xu Shang's provocation is like a cicada lying on the asphalt road in summer, moving its legs intermittently, but it is just a dying struggle!
Just when Professor Yang was smiling, another parent called him and said excitedly:
"Professor Yang, you're on the news! CCTV news!"
Professor Yang became even happier as he remembered that he had recently received an invitation from CCTV to be on a show.
However, when Professor Yang turned on the news, the smile on his face suddenly froze -
"Recently, the topic of 'Internet addiction' has attracted widespread attention from the society. Xu Shang, who just turned 18, questioned Professor Yang who promoted the gratitude education treatment. He even proposed a very bold idea, which is a challenge to verify whether the so-called Internet addiction and the so-called education center are really useful!"
"Professor Yang also gladly accepted this challenge. After learning the news, our station decided to record this social experiment and shoot a large-scale reality documentary!"
Professor Yang was confused.
What?
What, what, what is this!?
CCTV actually had the plan to make a hot program about Internet addiction a long time ago. It even had the idea in mind from the beginning that it would call on the whole society to fight against Internet addiction and spread positive energy based on Professor Yang's story.
But after seeing Xu Shang's "Gratitude Education Chicken Farm", almost everyone had doubts about Professor Yang's gratitude education treatment.
Who still dares to believe in the concept of "Internet addiction" now?
Even the senior leaders were shocked and immediately stopped the original plan.
The program was originally scheduled to be cancelled, but at this time, Director Jiao came over to act as a matchmaker for Xu Shang - Xu Shang said that he had a new program plan that would be provided free of charge.
This matter immediately aroused everyone's interest, and the report was immediately sent to the senior leader. After reading the program plan provided by Xu Shang, the senior leader slammed the table, and then -
The news continues:
"The senior year of high school consists of 41 weeks in total. Currently, the senior year of high school has been in session for three weeks, leaving both sides with one week of preparation time, and there are 37 weeks left. The name of our program is "37 Weeks", and the full name is "Internet Addicted? Teenager, 37 Weeks of College Entrance Examination". It will be broadcast on the Culture and Education Channel at 7pm every Sunday. See you there."
