"This kid is pretty patient. Is he a tortoise? He can sit still after being looked down on like that to his face."
Someone as patient as him must be either a deep-thinking person or someone with incredibly thick skin…
Feilongxian Special Effects Studio.
Cao Lang, the manager, was staring intently at the live stream, muttering to himself:
"Of course, there's another possibility: this guy is both a deep thinker and incredibly shameless!"
Since losing orders from Daxu Culture, Feilongxian Special Effects Studio has been going from bad to worse every day.
Therefore, Cao Lang naturally hates our General Manager Xu to the core, but he has never had any chance to take revenge in the past.
Seeing his opponent make a fool of himself in public made Cao Lang feel quite pleased.
Even though Xu's embarrassment wouldn't help Feilongxian Studio in the slightest, Cao Lang still felt he could vent his anger.
So when he saw Xu Lu remaining unmoved on the live stream, he himself couldn't hold back anymore.
"You're really angry, aren't you? You're going to go berserk! They've already said those things about you, and you're not going to jump up and yell at them?"
Cao Lang was filled with anticipation.
Because he knew.
If Xu Lu shows even the slightest sign of anger or embarrassment in the live stream, the impact will become severe.
If the other party could fly into a rage, the consequences would be even more unimaginable.
To Cao Lang's disappointment, the man surnamed Xu in the scene remained completely unmoved throughout the entire sequence of events.
The person sat there calmly, showing no sign of anger.
Cao Lang believed that if he were in that situation, he certainly wouldn't have had that kind of control.
So seeing the person he hated looking completely calm made him feel quite frustrated.
"This kid must be some kind of turtle spirit, he's incredibly patient!"
...
Zhou Wenhao, the president of the Modern Poetry Society, shared a similar sentiment.
Indeed, the reason why the literary master Zhuang Qiu did this today is inseparable from this Master Zhou.
Master Zhou suffered a severe insult from Xu Lu last time and has been eager to get revenge. Well, he just happened to be there for the occasion.
Therefore, Zhou Wenhao felt relieved after seeing Zhuang Qiu say those words in the live broadcast.
Kid, aren't you just trying to bully our modern poetry circle because you can write poetry?
Now look what's happened! We've been ridiculed by a literary master, and we don't even have a chance to refute him.
Zhou Wenhao felt a surge of secret satisfaction.
But soon he realized something was wrong, because the kid in the video was too nonchalant.
If it were anyone else who had been ridiculed by Master Zhuang like that, they would at least be humiliated, if not furious enough to vomit blood.
But that kid named Xu Lu was just like a bystander at that moment.
If Zhou Wenhao hadn't already known what the other person looked like, and if the live stream hadn't shown a close-up of the person, he might have thought he had mistaken them for someone else.
"But no matter how good you are at pretending, you're still bound to embarrass yourself."
Even after this speech gala ends, there's absolutely no way I'll gain any fame from it.
From now on, whenever people mention it, they will remember the scene where that kid embarrassed himself here.
This lecture at Peking University will definitely become a psychological trauma for that kid..."
Thinking about this, Zhou Wenhao felt that he had already achieved his goal.
You made me lose face, so I'll make you lose face too. What goes around comes around, and retribution will surely come!
...
"I never expected this guy named Zhuang Qiu to cause me trouble in this way!"
Xu Lu, who was under the spotlight, muttered something to himself.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't angry after being mocked so coldly by that guy surnamed Zhuang.
However, Mr. Xu knew that now was not the time to be angry. Moreover, he was somewhat prepared for the current situation, and it was not as sudden as others imagined.
So after regaining his senses, he quickly calmed down and started thinking about a solution.
Clearly, Zhuang Qiu wasn't present, so he couldn't directly teach the other party a lesson.
Otherwise, he would definitely have thrown a fire spell at them to show them why the sparks were so red.
Since we can't retaliate for the time being, we should remain calm for now.
He is strong... let him be strong... the gentle breeze... caresses the mountain ridge! He is arrogant... let him be arrogant... the bright moon... shines on the great river!
Getting angry and frustrated at this time is the worst way to deal with it, and impotent rage is even worse!
So in other people's eyes, Xu Lu at this moment looked like he was saying, "That guy wasn't talking about me at all."
As a result, many people who wanted to take the opportunity to see him make a fool of himself are now extremely frustrated.
They all secretly cursed that this guy was probably a reincarnation of a turtle spirit, or a mutated Ninja Turtle.
After some thought, Xu Lu also made up his mind, thinking to himself:
"Looks like I'll have to change my speech for today!"
"Master Zhuang, is it? Heh, you dare mess with me? You probably don't know how many eyes Lord Ma has!"
...
Master Zhuang over there naturally couldn't keep talking about Director Xu, since today wasn't a mockery session, but a speech session.
So after the initial mockery, the other party got down to business.
As a literary master, Zhuang Qiu's topic for today's speech is his novel "A Bitter Journey of Life," which he wrote not long ago.
The people in the room also turned their attention back to the content of the novel 'Life's Journey'.
