Huayu 1999: Starting with nothing but getting something for nothing

Of course, this requirement is not for attracting traffic, but simply for improving search engine ranking.

Tianya's traffic can't compare to 360's. 360 gained more than 18 new users in a single day because of its exclusive release of files and pictures, intimate photos of Yang Che and Wang Fei, photos of them holding hands, and a special section.

Although Yang Che's playing style was clumsy, it was incredibly useful.

Before the script for "Waiting Alone" was even submitted for review, a bunch of people came because they sensed its potential.

Those wanting to invest, those asking about the plot and requesting the script, those seeking sponsorship from GG, and even unsuspecting friends... even Fan Zeping called.

People believed that Yang Che would not do a losing business, and they wanted to become popular stars with just one movie, like Huang Haibo and Fan Bingbing.

However, people could not get in touch with Yang Che. After the press conference, he seemed to have disappeared. When they tried to contact Doubao Media, the answer was always that he was busy with personal matters.

Yang Che is incredibly famous now. None of his previous achievements, such as selling copyrights for millions of dollars, acts of bravery, breaking box office records, or being rumored boyfriends, have made him as famous as he has now.

After all, he and Wang Fei have a clear photo of their faces this time. If they just go out to buy something, about 38.2% of people would recognize him.

You ask why it's 38.2%? It's the golden ratio.

Meaning? It has no meaning.

Yang Che didn't hide; he was very busy, busy with the Olympic Bid Committee's logo presentation and working as a publicity consultant.

He's also busy with Liu Xinmo's affairs, especially this one. The general public doesn't care, but he has to.

The final result was: Liu Xinmo was sentenced to one year in prison with a two-year reprieve; Yu Feifei (the man with glasses) was sentenced to two years and six months.

Xiao Zhang retired early, sold his house in China and immigrated to Canada. He lived a very comfortable life for two years. Then his investment failed, and his young second wife and daughter, who had become addicted to drugs, ran away with foreigners. After that, he disappeared into the crowd.

Yang Binbin was publicly criticized by the Beijing News and received a major demerit.

Xiao Yu, who was in charge of the municipal party committee and the Olympic bid publicity work, specifically talked to Yang Che about the importance of media workers, and then nothing happened. The Beijing News did not publish an apology afterwards.

As for the terrifying harmony among the female comrades, Yuanyuan and Xiaopang remained calm and composed, without intentionally adding any psychological burden to Yang Che.

Needless to say, Wang Fei has been a lovestruck woman ever since the press conference.

That evening, she invited her friends in Beijing to her home for dinner. She stayed close to Yang Che the whole time, and would often giggle. Despite this, her friends didn't say anything sarcastic or sarcastic; they just chatted and laughed.

There were four friends: Jing Gangshan, Ma Jia, Dou Ying, and Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao is La Ying's best friend. When they first started out as migrant workers in Beijing, they shared a bed in a basement, ate the same bowl of noodles, and sang together at various venues.

Later, Aunt Zhao was chosen by the third brother of Lingnan and became his kept woman, and she also had a relationship with La Ying.

Wang Fei became friends with La Ying and Aunt Zhao, a friendship that had lasted for ten years.

Of course, in the following days, after Wang Fei learned what La Ying had said, the two had a conflict and fell into a cold war, much like the situation in another timeline.

Aunt Zhao mediated several times, and the two finally reconciled. La Ying also stopped saying anything negative about Yang Che.

........

The night after the press conference, Yang Che returned to Courtyard No. 8 and found Gao Yuanyuan behaving unusually well.

They seem even more cloying than before.

Before going to sleep, Yang Che gently asked her how she felt.

She said, "Seeing you two on TV still makes me sad, but I feel better after a while. It's just that my brother wants me to break up with you, but my parents didn't say anything."

"What did you say?"

"I said I know what I'm doing."

Yang Che didn't say anything to make any promises or guarantees, he just held her tightly, wanting to pull her into his arms.

.......

As for Xiaopang, she told her parents that everything should wait until she got back, and that they shouldn't look for Yang Che now, as he was very busy and they didn't want to cause him any trouble.

As for herself, she wasn't stupid. She didn't care much about the intimate photos of Yang Che and Wang Fei; she was very concerned about the public opinion following the press conference. She didn't know what to do, and the thought of breaking up to her was heartbreaking. She secretly cried twice in bed, but in front of others, she still acted cheerful and carefree.

The crew of "Justice Bao" tried their best not to mention these things in front of her.

On February 18, Xiaopang asked the crew for leave and flew back to Beijing. She did not ask her boyfriend to pick her up, nor did she go back to Anzhenli. Instead, she went directly to the CCTV studio to participate in the recording of the Lantern Festival Gala (1).

When CCTV reporters interviewed her, she was still in high spirits and happy, laughing and joking as she answered questions with Huang Haibo.

During her break, she overheard people discussing the Olympic bid logo that had just been released on the official website. This wasn't important, as it was only being publicized, not promoted, at this stage. What was important was that there was only one designer: Yang Che.

Those who have worked at CCTV for many years know how unusual this is.

I don't know when it started, but no matter how perfect someone's work is, it always has to be modified. Another creator has to be added, and most of the time the other creator is listed first.

This is not only true in the art world, but also in some other industries; it's a common practice.

When American scientist Louis Miller discovered artemisinin in Africa, he was shocked. Then he learned that it was invented by the Chinese. He really wanted to meet the medical scientist who invented this miraculous drug, but after many years of research and asking many people, he still couldn't confirm who the inventor was.

Finally, seven organizations were identified, along with their leaders.

Miller couldn't get an answer no matter how hard he tried, so he finally had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Besides you, who is the second most important contributor?"

The responses from the seven institutions all pointed to the same person: Tu Youyou.

Miller contacted Tu Youyou and began systematically collecting the original materials she possessed.

Clinical trial reports, lab notes, sample records—these hard-to-find documents were gradually compiled.

During this period, some leaders learned of this and became very angry, and severely criticized Tu Youyou.

However, Miller, through that vast amount of data, had already solidified Tu Youyou's central position in artemisinin research, and recommended Tu Youyou to the Nobel Prize Committee for five consecutive years starting in 2010.

An American scientist spent five years recommending a Chinese scientist to the Nobel Prize committee.

Finally, Nobel notified Tu Youyou to come and receive the award.

At this point, a group of experts and leaders in China stepped forward, even publicly stating: "You are not an academician, you are not qualified, and you are not worthy to represent China to receive this award."

Similar projects include the artificial synthesis of bovine insulin, which is absolutely worthy of a Nobel Prize.

But after much deliberation, they couldn't remove any of the dozens of people from the list.

In the end, the honor can only go to the collective, and no one else gets it.

This is different from holding people accountable for mistakes. Once a project goes wrong, someone can always be found to take responsibility quickly and accurately. The efficiency is very high, and the path to shifting blame is clearer than the experimental process.

The collective is never wrong; it's just that in some areas it has become a large rag in the hands of leaders, erasing even the most valuable traces.

Note 1: The 2000 Lantern Festival Gala was actually held at the Macau Cultural Centre and was broadcast live. The hosts were Zhou Tao and Su Xiangmei. This has been modified.
