"Notice, notice, notice. According to the Ministry of Culture, the author Xiaoyuer is an important inheritor of ancient Chinese culture. The heritage patterns he designed cannot be sold abroad for the time being. We ask for your understanding from our overseas readers who love Xiaoyuer and have placed orders for Kunling phones in his livestream. Domestic readers who have purchased his signature phones, please do not sell them to others without permission. If the phones of private sellers are found to be flowing abroad, the state will investigate the crime of leaking state secrets."
Less than ten minutes after Xiao Yu's live broadcast ended, a large and bold notice suddenly popped up on the main page of the Venusstar website.
As soon as this announcement came out, it directly occupied the entire computer page of the website's homepage, making it difficult for many readers and writers to miss it.
A group of writers from Qimingxing:
"Oh shit, this is great! Xiaoyuer is going to be completely in trouble."
"The last time this guy was singled out by the higher-ups was because his novel involved... Hmm, I think it was also charged with something like an important cultural offense back then? Being singled out again this time? This must be a real honor!"
"Of course, my ancestors for eight generations will probably be setting off firecrackers to celebrate."
"I don't know if it's going to be a hit, but it's probably going to be trending."
"Based on my understanding of this guy, I guess he'll be in hiding for a while."
"Be careful what you say upstairs. It is said that this guy is now a Taoist priest."
“…”
Three minutes after the announcement was released, it was reprinted in major media outlets and on search engines.
However, due to the late time and the problems with mobile phone intelligence in 2013, the speed of news dissemination was not as fast as it would be more than ten years later.
It was five days later that Xiaoyuer was actually searched by many passers-by and became a hot topic.

Song Yunlai is a fan of Xiaoyuer, and a long-time one at that. He has been following Xiaoyuer's novel since she published her first one. He was still in high school at that time.
Because his family is wealthy, he has many bad friends.
He has always been indifferent to going to school, and even listened to the advice of his friends. He has made plans to ask his father to pay for a place in a local university if he fails to get into university in the future.
In the second semester of his second year of high school, he was dragged to an internet cafe by his friends to play games. When he was bored, he accidentally saw an advertisement for "Xianren Fuding". He searched for it on his computer and clicked on it.
Maybe it was fate, but he happened to see a clip in it that was similar to his situation.
He hadn't cared at first, but that night, by sheer coincidence, it happened. His long-held, trustworthy friends actually wanted to drag him down with them.
His father had told him early on that he could be a playboy, but he must never get involved in pornography, gambling, or drugs.
He also didn't expect that in the novel he had just read in the afternoon, which described how bad friends dragged the rich second generation into trouble and eventually caused their families to be destroyed, he would become the cannon fodder in the book that night.
Song Yunlai was quite famous in his area because his family was wealthy and he did whatever he wanted. But at the time, thinking about the horror of some of the ghosts, he was still rational and did not confront them directly. Instead, he quietly called the police through an acquaintance.
The result, of course, was that group of bad friends were arrested.
Because they were involved in something strictly prohibited by the state, the group was severely punished. His father subsequently flew into a rage, severing many business ties as a sign of the Song family's intentions. He was then placed under house arrest and assigned to numerous teachers, transforming this dandy boy into a top student before the college entrance exams.
However, not everyone hopes that after the Song family has a figure like his elder brother, there will be another person as outstanding as him.
Then, more conspiracies and tricks came.
When he was knocked off the cliff, Song Yunlai had just received the top-of-the-line phone he'd bought from Xiao Yu's livestream. He immediately fell in love with the signature and the mysterious pattern on the back of the phone, so he carefully tucked it into the inner pocket of his coat.
When the sports car was knocked off the cliff, he felt only despair.
But when the sports car hit the bottom, he saw a beam of light suddenly emerge from the bottom of the cliff, wrapping him up and pulling him out of the car.
In the end, his car exploded, but he was unharmed.
If he had not felt the burning sensation in his chest when the light protected him, he would never have imagined that his idol, the great god, could actually draw talismans.
☆
Song Yunlai originally didn't want to expose Xiao Yuer's affairs, but in order to find him, his parents and elder brother immediately contacted public and private search and rescue teams throughout the city.
When hundreds of people, including the media who had come to smell the blood, saw the sports car reduced to fragments by the explosion and him intact at the bottom of the cliff, even if he said nothing, all kinds of speculations arose.
What’s more, the Venusstar website is currently live streaming.
Previously, Xiaoyuer’s live broadcast issues had been on the news.
I don’t know who revealed that he was a fan of Xiaoyuer, combined with the Kunling phone his father took out of his pocket.
Father Song: "My phone is fine, why didn't you answer my call, you idiot?"
Song Yunlai:...I said I was scared and shocked, do you believe it?
"You know how worried I am, you bastard, you really know how to piss me off to death."

Dormitory 205, XXX University.
When the news about Xiao Yuer became popular on the Internet, Xiao Yu's three roommates finally noticed the news online.
It’s not that they don’t usually read the news, but for most people who read novels or not, news about an unknown author is either sensational or just a publicity stunt in their eyes.
Anyway, generally I'm not too interested.
However, with the incident involving Song Yunlong, rumors about Xiao Yuer's signature became more and more mysterious, and a few people from the next dormitory happened to see the screenshots of Xiao Yu's live broadcast circulating online.
"Is this Xiao Yu?" the students in 206 pointed at a screenshot and asked the three students in 205, "We all think they look very similar."
After all, they had lived together for three years. The three people in 205 recognized Xiao Yu almost immediately. Even though he was dressed like a red lantern.
Zeng Hailin: (⊙o⊙)…
"So, Xiao Yu said before that he earned two small goals by writing books. Is that true?"
Hao Ren and Liu Hao exchanged a glance without saying anything. They knew Xiao Yu wrote novels, but he didn't particularly enjoy discussing them with others, so they respected his attitude.
He usually calls the other person Uncle Yu simply because his name is Xiao Yu (homonymous with Xiao Yu).
But who the hell can tell them that Xiao Yu is really a billionaire?
"This, this is hidden too deeply!" exclaimed the fat boy from 206.
"It's understandable that we're worried about inequality, not scarcity." Liu Hao said, "If he had told us earlier that he made a lot of money writing books, would you have felt at peace? Besides, when we occasionally go out to have fun, he always takes the lion's share."
Zeng Hailin: "How much is that?"
Liu Hao: "How much do you want?"
206: (⊙o⊙)…The problem is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of distribution. Has it come true so soon?
