A fat man who was reborn from the dead? He transforms into a perfect male god in a week.

Back in his dorm, Jiang Chen opened the system panel.

[Current Amazing Value: 4000 points]

"Wow, it's already reached 4,000 points! That's quite a rapid increase!"

"The price should rise again when the newspaper comes out tomorrow."

"I wonder if it can break 10,000..."

He turned off the control panel and lay down on the bed.

My mind started planning the next steps:

The national finals of the four-subject competition will be held in May.

If you pass the preliminary round of the New Concept Writing Competition, the semi-finals will be in April.

Youth Track and Field Championships, April.

There's also the college entrance exam, in June.

"Your schedule is pretty full."

Jiang Chen smiled.

However, it's good to have a fulfilling life.

After all, amazing qualities don't just fall from the sky.

He has to earn it himself, one game at a time.

"Go to sleep, tomorrow is another day."

He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

In his dream, he stood on the podium of the International Olympic Games, holding four gold medals in his hands.

The audience erupted in applause, and the level of amazement poured down like a torrential downpour.

……

At this moment, in the dormitories of Jiangcheng No. 3 Middle School, the name "Jiang Shen" is still talked about by countless students.

"Have you heard? Jiang Shen trains the equivalent of a special forces soldier every day!"

"More than that! He can memorize a book after reading it only once, and he doesn't even need to think about solving problems!"

"And he's handsome, has a great physique, and can easily outshine all the top male celebrities!"

"This is the real perfect male god..."

"From today onwards, Jiang Shen is my only idol!"

"No, it's faith!"

Night was falling.

But the legend of Jiang Chen has only just begun.

……

The next day was Thursday.

Early in the morning, the campus of Jiangcheng No. 3 Middle School was bustling with activity once again.

Because today, in all the local newspapers that are well-known, such as the Jiangzhou Daily, Jiangcheng Daily, and Jiangzhou Times News, the front page and headlines of the campus section are all about Jiang Chen.

The titles are getting more and more explosive:

[Shocking! Jiang Chen, a prodigy from Jiangcheng No. 3 Middle School, achieved perfect scores in four subject competitions, ranking first in Jiangnan Province!]

[Oh my god! From 300 pounds to ten-pack abs, from a complete academic failure to a super genius... Jiang Chen's road to success!]

[Look! Running 10 kilometers and doing 1000 push-ups every day? The self-disciplined life of academic genius Jiang Chen!]

Wow! A provincial first-place finisher in four competitions, a member of the provincial team in four competitions—this high school student is going to be phenomenal!

The accompanying photo shows Jiang Chen being interviewed at the school gate.

He had a buzz cut, wore a school uniform, looked clean and handsome, and had a calm gaze with a hint of...confidence shining through.

The report largely preserves the original content of the interview dialogue.

In particular, not a single word of Jiang Chen's classic quotes, such as "Read more books and newspapers, eat less snacks and sleep more" and "Do 10 kilometers and 1,000 push-ups every day," were deleted.

Pan Zhenhua rushed into the classroom early in the morning, carrying a stack of newspapers, his face glowing:

"Classmates! Look! Jiang Chen is in the newspaper!"

"Front page headline! Jiangzhou Daily! Jiangcheng Daily! All on the front page!"

"The principal said that five copies will be distributed to each class today for everyone to read and study!"

The classroom erupted instantly.

"Holy crap! Jiang Shen is actually in the newspaper?!"

"This photo is... so cool!"

"Ten kilometers and a thousand push-ups every day? Jiang Shen's training regimen would make the national team weep..."

"Read more books and newspapers, eat fewer snacks and sleep more... I'm speechless when I hear that."

Hao Yingjun snatched a newspaper and pointed at the photos with smugness:

"See that? This is my brother! My own brother!"

"From now on, if anyone dares to say I'm fat, I'll say I'm Brother Jiang Shen! So what if I'm a little chubby? Being chubby is a blessing!"

Everyone laughed, "Fatty, you're incredibly lucky..."

……

During the morning exercise break, Principal Zhou Mingde personally broadcast the following:

"Dear students, today major newspapers reported on the outstanding deeds of Jiang Chen, a student from our school."

"To encourage all students to learn from Jiang Chen, the school specially ordered 500 copies of the Jiangzhou Daily, which were personally signed by Jiang Chen and then distributed to each class."

"I hope all students will take Jiang Chen as a role model, study hard, and strive for excellence!"

As soon as the broadcast ended, Jiang Chen was invited to the principal's office.

Upon entering, one is greeted by a mountain of newspapers piled on the desk.

Zhou Mingde smiled like a Maitreya Buddha:

"Jiang Chen, come, come, have a seat."

"Just sign each of these newspapers. You don't need to write too much, just write 'Jiang Chen'."

"Thank you for your hard work. After you sign them, I'll have someone deliver them to each class."

Jiang Chen looked at the pile of newspapers, his lips twitching:

"Principal, how long will this signing take?"

"Soon, five hundred copies. At your speed, you'll definitely finish signing them in one class period."

Zhou Mingde patted him on the shoulder, "This is a great opportunity to promote yourself!"

"In the past, when our school promoted outstanding students, the most we did was post a photo on the school's honor roll."

"But this time is different; you've been featured in the city newspaper! You're a shining example from our No. 3 Middle School!"

"We must let the whole school see this! Especially the freshmen and sophomores, they need to know that with hard work, they can be just as excellent as you!"

Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat.

Propaganda?

Yes, this is a perfect opportunity to "show off in front of others".

His initial impressive performance came mainly from his senior year of high school; he received relatively less attention in his freshman and sophomore years.

If the school-wide publicity is effective this time...

Wouldn't that mean another huge wave of harvesting?

"Okay, Principal, I'll sign."

Without saying a word, Jiang Chen picked up the pen and started signing.

Zhou Mingde sat happily to the side watching, remarking as he watched:

"Your handwriting is really good; it has a certain elegance."

"These autographed newspapers will be collector's items in the future!"

"In a few years, when you become a great scientist or a celebrity, the value of these newspapers will double..."

Jiang Chen: "..."

Principal, you're thinking really far ahead.

……

After one class period, all five hundred newspapers were signed.

Jiang Chen's hands were almost cramping from writing so much.

But looking at that pile of signed newspapers, I felt a sense of satisfaction.

"Now, the freshmen and sophomores should all be able to see my 'glorious deeds,' right?"

"It's amazing! Come on, have it!"

really.

During lunchtime, the system notification sounds started ringing out like rain.

[Ding! You have received +10 Amazing Points!]

[Ding! You have received +20 Amazing Points!]

[Ding! You have received +50 Amazing Points!]

……

At first, the bombardment was sparse, but by the afternoon, it had become a dense bombardment.

Especially during breaks, when Jiang Chen walked down the corridor, he could clearly feel the intense gazes coming from all directions.

"Look, that's the River God!"

"He's even more handsome in person than in the newspaper!"

"I heard he trains like a special forces soldier every day..."

"This is a true academic genius! Handsome, academically gifted, and athletic!"

"I've made up my mind. From today onwards, Jiang Shen will be my only idol!"

"No, he's my idol!"

Jiang Chen appeared calm on the surface, but was secretly overjoyed.

This wave of publicity was extremely effective.

……

When Jiang Chen opened the system panel after school that evening, he burst out laughing.

[Current Amazing Value: 8800 points]

It's a full 4,800 points more than last night.

"Wow, 4,800 points... That's faster than a rocket launch!"

Jiang Chen was overjoyed.

Indeed, one should become famous as early as possible and ensure effective publicity.

This school-wide promotion directly cemented his legendary status among the first and second-year high school students.

With the help of newspapers and other media, some parents who are concerned about education also contributed a lot of impressive results.

"At this rate, it could really reach 10,000 by tonight!"

Jiang Chen stroked his chin, already starting to plan how to spend this "huge sum of money".
