Trantor: Legge Editor: Legge
In the live streaming channel.
A crazy amount ofments scrolled past the screen.
"—You got recognized so quickly!—Hahaha, I nearly fainted fromughter—There''s no one left for you to y—Just look at you, there isn''t even a person who wants to y you—Even Chen Ying 8-dan has run off too, pfft—Aiyo, this is so amusing and funny—You''ve already been recognized yet you''re still not admitting it. Teacher Zhang, why don''t you have the air of a master at all?—Hahahaha—You''re really too shameless, but I like that—Aiyo, this is the first time I''mughing so hard at a gaming stream—Continue doing this, Teacher Zhang—When ites to shamelessness, I will only take my hat off to you—"
Zhang Ye was also feeling somewhat helpless at this. He looked into the camera and threw his hands in the air. "There''s nothing I can do about it if they don''t wish to y against me. I probably yed too many times against those professional yers from the Qiyuan, so they''ve already gotten used to my ystyle and can recognize me very easily. Hai, what can I do about it?"
The few million viewers started suggesting ideas.
"Go to an overseas server—Yeah, head to the Korean server—That''s a great idea—Hahahaha, you guys are too wicked—Lord Zhang, let''s use our alts and head over to the Korean server. Your reputation as a Professional Korean Insulter is not for nothing—Yeah, we''ve never seen you y against a foreign Go yer before—Hurry, hurry—I can''t wait to see this—Let''s flood the Korean server—Gogogo—Attack the Korean server—"
Countless people werementing furiously!
All of them were moring for a game on the Korean server!
And there didn''t even seem to be too many voices of objection with almost everyone agreeing emphatically!
Zhang Ye was encouraged by this. "You guys really just want to watch the world burn, eh? The Korean server? Alright, my brothers! Let''s go and y them all!"
…
On Weibo, it suddenly descended into chaos.
"Come and quickly see this!"
"Zhang Ye is ying Go!"
"He''s about to head over to the Korean server!"
"Where''s everyone at? If youe toote, there won''t be anything left to watch!"
"Ah? Really?"
"I''ll be right over!"
"Damn, now this I have to watch!"
"What? He''s going for such a big y? Well done! I''ming too!"
"Everyone, please spread the word! This is an event that won''t happen for another 10,000 years. If you miss this one, you won''t be able to see it ever again. Brothers, hurry!"
"Comedian Zhang is going for the kill!"
…
The number of viewers in the channel was soaring for the umpteenth time!
6 million!
7 million!
8 million!
This didn''t only break Meihe TV''s viewership record, it also broke the record of all the live streaming sites in the country. Even the one time a Heavenly King streamed for his first time, he only attracted about 7 or 8 million viewers. Further, from the looks of it, the number of people watching Zhang Ye''s stream was still probably going to increase? It could still get higher? This was simply unbelievable! No one could have expected Zhang Ye''s first livestream to be so popr!
Even Meihe TV''s CEO was feeling a little guilty.
In the CEO''s office.
Meihe''s CEO was watching the constant increase in viewership numbers. He was wiping his sweat away as he quickly summoned his secretary and said, "Little Qi, go and tell IT to stop boosting the numbers. Don''t overdo it. Isn''t 5 million viewers a good enough number? Why did they boost it further to 8 million viewers? This statistic is so exaggerated that it might end up bing a joke in the industry."
That secretary said in surprise, "But boss, IT did not boost up the numbers."
The CEO said in amusement, "Save it, how could there be so many viewers if the numbers weren''t faked? Do you think that those Heavenly Kings and A-listers who came over back then really had several million viewers watching them? Bullshit! If the real numbers could ount for one-third of the supposed viewers, it would already be very good! All of those statistics were boosted internally!"
The secretary hurriedly said, "Boss, IT really did not do anything. I was there all this while. If you don''t believe it, you can go and have a look for yourself. There isn''t any time to boost the numbers at all. Everyone is so busy right now trying to keep the servers running. The channel already has over 8 million people watching, do you know how strained our server andwork has be?!"
"What?"
"It''s real!"
"Those 8 million viewers are all real people?"
"They''re all real people!"
"Holy fuck!"
The boss was so shocked that he let out a curse!
…
In the livestreaming channel.
On the Korean server of the Online Go Server.
Zhang Ye wasn''t aware of what was going on in the outside world as he was currently leading a horde of people who wanted to watch the world burn. The interface of the Korean server was basically the same as the Chinese server, with the same settings and controls. Except the text was in Korean, but that wasn''t much of a difficulty as there were several million people watching the livestream. Even if you wanted to find someone who could understand eight nationalnguages, it wouldn''t be difficult at all, much less someone who could understand Korean. There would surely be some kind souls or students studying abroad who were willing to real-time trante for him!
"—Click on that. Yes, yes—That''s the professional Go yers zone, but your ount rank is not high enough, so you can only watch, not enter the match room—Unless a professional Go yer invites you to a match or challenges you—That won''t work, we''re on an alt ount, they wouldn''t bother with us for sure—Aiya, what do we do then?—I can''t wait anymore, hahahaha—Everyone, try to think of something—Or why don''t we look for a challenger—Right, let''s look for someone to challenge—"
Rank restriction.
Password restriction.
Zhang Ye clicked around for a long time but could not find anyone to y, with most of the rooms being inessible to him.
So Zhang Ye listened to the advice of the viewers and said, "Alright, I''ll look for someone to y. Can someone trante ''Are there any professional Go yers who dare to exchange a few moves with me?''"
More than a dozen trantors immediately typed it out into chat!
The Korean trantion of the question he wanted to ask was already here!
Zhang Ye alsoughed and said, "Look, just look at this everyone. The pros are all amongst themon folk. There''s still a lot of talented people in China. Alright, I''m gonna copy and paste this in!"
He "shouted" into the public chat!
In Korean: "Are there any professional Go yers who dare to exchange a few moves with me!"
In Korean: "Are there any professional Go yers who dare to exchange a few moves with me!"
He spammed over a dozen of the same message!
However, everyone ignored him!
Quite a lot of the Koreans evenughed at it.
"Who''s this?"
"How arrogant!"
"A professional Go yer doesn''t have time to y you!"
"What an idiot!"
"You''re second-rate!"
Of course, these Korean replies were all tranted back into Chinese for Zhang Ye. He couldn''t be sure whether these viewers had added any of their own words and exaggerated what was being said!
You''re second-rate?
Did Koreans speak in such a way?
I''ve never studied much, so don''t try and trick me!
"—Hahahaha—Teacher Zhang is getting looked down upon—Teacher Zhang, how can you bear this? Ah? Even if you can bear it, I can''t!—Get them, Lord Zhang—Lord Zhang, don''t be afraid—No one wants to y you—Hur hur, no one even knows who you are. Lord Zhang, how can you take this lying down—"
Chat wasughing at and booing him!
Zhang Ye also found it a little embarrassing and couldn''t help but feel annoyed.
Ignoring me?
No one wants to challenge me?
I don''t believe this!
Zhang Ye immediately found someone to trante another sentence for him and sent it out!
"The XX Sea belongs to China, challenge me if you disagree!"
"The XX Sea belongs to China, challenge me if you disagree!"
In this world, China and many of its neighboring countries also had territorial disputes over the seas and political conflicts. It was also a simr case regarding Korea and both countries had been arguing over such matters for many years.
The people on the Korean server sneered.
"Who is this person!"
"A Chinese?"
"Ignore him, let him shout all he wants."
"Everyone knows that the XX Sea belongs to us!"
"If your fishing boats intrude into our waters, we will definitely arrest them!"
When some of the Korean professional Go yers saw these ims, they just took it in stride andughed it off. They couldn''t be bothered to get into a worthless argument with him as it would be meaningless.
But would Zhang Ye give up just like that?
Still ignoring me?
No one wants to step forward to challenge me?
In the end, Zhang Ye sent out some stunning ims and spammed thirty lines of it!
"Seoul belongs to China, challenge me if you disagree!"
"Seoul belongs to China, challenge me if you disagree!"
"Seoul belongs to China, challenge me if you disagree!"
The several million viewers in the channel erupted intoughter!
There were indeed some controversies between China and Korea!
But Seoul?
That is their capital, brother!
But it proved to be effective!
The Korean server exploded!
"Fuck!"
"Get him!"
"We cannot take this lying down!"
"Motherfucker, get him!"
"Seoul belongs to you? Why don''t you im that Busan is yours too!"
As a result, Zhang Ye spammed another im: "Busan belongs to us too, challenge me if you disagree!"
The people watching the stream in China were bursting into madughter!
"—Aiyo, I can''t take this anymore. I really can''t take it anymore—Teacher Zhang, why are you such a joker?—There''s really no one like you around—This fe really knows how to rile people up—"
The people on the Korean server burst into an uproar and took it up with him!
"Are you provoking us!"
"This is pushing it too far!"
"I''ll challenge him!"
"I''ll do it!"
"Let me do it!"
Many of the Korean professional Go yers also came out of their slumber in rage!
Message:
Li Shinchi has sent you a challenge!
Song Jeonha has sent you a challenge!
Jeong Wonhwan has sent you a challenge!
A total of 200 challenges were received!
Zhang Ye smiled.
Look, they''re all here now, aren''t they?
He wasn''t too familiar with the Korean Go world but had still heard of a few of their names. Like Li Shinchi 8-dan, he was one of the top 30 ranked yers in the world of international Go!
It shall be you then!
He clicked and epted the challenged!
At the next moment, Zhang Ye''s ount was taken into Li Shinchi''s room by the program!
Li Shinchi 8-dan typed with a sneer: "Don''t say that I am bullying you! I''ll let you have a five-stone handicap! And make you scram from here the way you arrived!"
Someone tranted it for Zhang Ye.
The spectators were already ready with their melon seeds and popcorn!
Zhang Ye replied: "Five stones?"
Li Shinchi said: "Yes! I''ll give you a five-stone handicap!"
Zhang Ye immediately replied: "Alright, thank you."
Theizens watching the livestream were in stitches!
The scrollingments galloped past.
"—Shameless! I''ve never seen someone as shameless as Zhang Ye—Five-stone handicap? Do you mean that you''re giving your opponent that handicap instead?—Aiyo, Teacher Zhang, that''s really enough. I''m dyingughing—Are you really serious? Where''s your ir as the top yer in the world?—You''re letting Li Shinchi give you a five-stone handicap? Teacher Zhang, can you get any more shameless than this?—Hahahaha—Li Shinchi will be crying soon—If he finds out who he is facing, he''ll definitely be in tears—Can''t me him, it''s Zhang Ye who is too mean—That''s right, this fellow really knows how to seize an opportunity to mess with others—This is gonna be interesting—"
