Huayu: Were you ever a top star before writing nonsense?

In September 2007, an urban entertainment novel appeared on Dianping (a Chinese online literature platform). Initially, no one paid it any attention. People thought it was just a nonsensical entertainment story, the fantasy of a mentally ill person, the ramblings of a madman. Until the book accurately predicted the rise of the East University, the Black president of the West University, rising housing prices, war... Until the works in the book began to appear in reality, songs, TV series, short dramas, movies, games... The author even used the novel's content to criticize current events, and time proved him right! People began to pay unprecedented attention to it, and hailed the novel as a "masterpiece." Countless people flooded the book review section every day, asking for "updates." Female celebrities meticulously analyzed every female character who had an ambiguous relationship with the protagonist, wondering if they had a chance. Directors lived in constant fear, lest the author use the book to indirectly criticize someone. Many people forgot that the initial review of this book was: "Was he ever a top star? He just writes nonsense, making assumptions."
