Live Stream: Overly Pampered Education Creates Three Superstars in One Family

That screenshot of the WeChat Moments post with the dazzling "615 points" score was like a solid slap in the face of the hater who was shouting "it's easy to talk when you're not the one suffering."

The counterattack by enthusiastic netizens was swift, ruthless, and accurate.

Below the screenshot, hundreds or even thousands of sarcastic comments flooded in instantly.

"Hey, where's that guy who wanted to see the results? Come out here for a bit?"

"Does your face hurt? I'm asking you, does your face hurt?! Not only do they talk a good game, they can actually teach you!"

"Stop playing dead and come out to apologize!"

Less than five minutes later, the netizen who had tried to put Chen Chu down on moral high ground quietly deleted the comment and, with lightning speed, canceled his account and fled overnight.

However, as the screenshots spread, some uninformed bystanders also expressed their doubts.

"Wait, what's everyone getting so excited about? It's only 615 points. With so many top scorers these days, this score doesn't even seem that high in a top high school, does it?"

"Yeah, the full score is 760, and 615 is just barely above the 'good' mark. Is it really worth exaggerating like this?"

Faced with such doubts, Chen Chu himself didn't need to intervene. The long-time fans who had been watching the live stream since the show "Effective Parenting" started immediately formed a "science popularization team" and began to frantically provide background information in various comment sections.

They dug up all of Chen Ziran's past "glorious achievements".

From being a "slacker" who consistently failed every subject, slept in class, and gave all teachers headaches, to now achieving a remarkable leap of 615 points and even breaking into the top 50 in the grade, the entire process has been compiled into a detailed timeline by fans.

[You guys don't know anything! This is 615 points, achieved by climbing up from the bottom!]

Just a few months ago, this kid was struggling to pass! Try raising the score of a perennial bottom-of-the-class student by nearly 200 points in just a few months? That's practically a medical miracle!

As these backstories were revealed, those who were initially unaware of the situation were instantly captivated by this "rags-to-riches" storyline, and many former haters became fans, while others who were neutral became fans.

What's even more shocking is that netizens have also dug up a video clip of Chen Chu personally tutoring Chen Ziran on her homework during the show.

In this scene, Chen Chu did not fly into a rage, slam his fist on the table, or glare at Chen Ziran. He also did not insult Chen Ziran's character because Chen Ziran got a very simple geometry problem wrong.

He simply guided Chen Ziran step by step to discover his own mistakes in an extremely calm, even slightly teasing tone.

This video has resonated deeply with parents across the country.

[My God... There are actually parents who help their sons with their homework without going crazy?! Are they even human?!]

Anyone who's ever tutored their child knows it's an extreme challenge to your cardiovascular system! I always keep nitroglycerin tablets handy when I'm helping my daughter with math problems!

[Chen Gou is amazing! His parenting skills are truly exceptional! I declare that from today onwards, Chen Chu is my living Buddha in the world of internet education!]

……

At this moment, Chen Chu was comfortably lying on the sofa in the villa.

Today the production team is on break, so there's no need to open the official live stream of "Effective Parenting." He originally planned to open his own private account, chat with fans, and pass the time.

As a result, as soon as he pressed the "start broadcast" button, his phone screen froze into a static image.

"??? What's going on? Is the internet down?" Chen Chu poked the screen twice, but the phone not only didn't respond, it even started to get hot.

The screen froze for a full half minute before suddenly jumping, and the number of online users in the upper right corner skyrocketed at an alarming rate: 100,000, 300,000, 500,000...

The barrage of comments was like a storm, so dense that it even covered Chen Chu's face.

Teacher Chen! Please teach us! I beg you!

[Dad Chen! I'm a senior in high school, and I can only score 20 on my physics test. Is it too late for me to be reborn? Or do you have any secret techniques you can share?]

[Dear Mr. Chen, I'm a mother of two. How can I help my kids with their homework without getting so frustrated that I develop breast nodules?]

[Teacher Chen, how did Ziran improve her grades so quickly in just a few months? Is there some special memorization method? Can I pay for it?!]

Chen Chu was completely dumbfounded as he looked at the screen filled with wailing students and eager parents.

"No..." Chen Chu's lips twitched, and he said speechlessly into the microphone, "Don't you guys get any rest on the weekend? What kind of cyber cram school are you attending here for? Can't you ask me some serious questions? Like, what am I having for dinner tonight!"

However, no one paid attention to his jokes, and the comments section was still frantically asking for study tips.

There were just too many people, and the data flow was too massive; Chen Chu's somewhat old phone finally gave out...

"Alright, alright, it's choppy, no more broadcasting today, everyone go wash up and go to bed."

Without hesitation, Chen Chu waved his hand dismissively and decisively pressed "Close Live Stream".

at the same time.

In another villa, Zhao Shuilan sat in front of a bright light, looking at the deserted tablet computer in front of her, her teeth grinding with jealousy.

As a former education expert and model mother, her private live stream now only has a pitiful few hundred viewers, and the comments section remains completely silent.

Seeing the overwhelming discussions about "Chen Chu's educational miracle" on the trending topics, Zhao Shuilan felt a pang of jealousy welling up inside her.

She straightened her hair, faced the camera, and expressed her opinion in a sarcastic tone.

"Actually, I don't think everyone needs to be so blindly worshipful."

Chen Chu's laissez-faire parenting style is simply not suitable for everyone.

Every child is different, so we should all be rational and not blindly follow trends, otherwise we might jeopardize our own child's future...

She thought that her "rational and objective" remarks would cause some controversy, and even if a few people criticized her, it would still increase her popularity and traffic.

result……

In the live stream, only a handful of fans posted a few messages...

That's right.

Chen Chu is nothing but a clown trying to attract attention.

Apart from that, there were no further developments.

Not even a passerby came in to refute her.

Looking at the lifeless screen, Zhao Shuilan felt a surge of immense shame.

In the internet age, the scariest thing is not being cyberbullied by the entire internet, but that you try your best to cause trouble, only to find that no one pays any attention to you!

Being criticized requires a certain threshold and popularity, and Zhao Shuilan doesn't even have the right to be criticized anymore!

Everyone rushed to Chen Chu's live stream to watch the excitement and worship the "God of Exams," so who has time to pay attention to this washed-up relationship coach?

Zhao Shuilan clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh, and could only think bitterly in her heart.

"Wait until tomorrow when the official live stream of 'Effective Parenting' starts, and then give it a thorough critique in front of a national audience!"

Tearing away Chen Chu's hypocritical facade...

……

Night falls.

Chen Ziran, carrying his schoolbag and humming a little tune, pushed open the door to his home.

A sumptuous dinner was already laid out on the table. Although the results had already spread throughout his social circle, Chen Ziran still ceremoniously slapped the report card with "615 points" printed on it in front of Chen Chu at the dinner table.

"Dad, please take a look!" Chen Ziran raised his chin, looking smug.

Chen Chu picked up the report card, pretended to examine it carefully, and couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He patted Chen Ziran's shoulder heavily: "Good lad! Well done! You didn't embarrass your father!"

As Chen Chu picked up a piece of pork rib for himself, he began his usual praise: "At this rate of progress you're making, you might actually get into Tsinghua or Peking University after next year's college entrance exam! Then, your dad can also benefit from your success and be the father of a top scorer in the national college entrance exam. How impressive would that be walking down the street!"

Chen Ziran had just taken a bite of rice when he heard this and almost choked. He quickly picked up his water glass to catch his breath: "Cough cough... Dad, stop! Stop it right now! Don't flatter me to death. Tsinghua and Peking University? You really dare to dream of that! What if I get a lower score in the next monthly exam? You'll be whipping me with your belt, won't you?"

"Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Chen Chu laughed heartily. The father and son joked around at the dinner table, creating a relaxed and warm atmosphere.

After dinner, I rested for more than half an hour.

Chen Chu switched to a better computer and reopened the live stream.

Almost the instant the stream was pushed out, the popularity of the live stream skyrocketed, breaking through the million mark.

The audience tonight was even more enthusiastic than during the day. After the day's events had begun, everyone had a lot to say to this miraculous father.

The barrage of comments scrolled wildly across the screen, with one particularly eye-catching colored comment being copied and pasted by numerous netizens, flooding the entire screen.

[Teacher Chen, stop keeping secrets! Publish a book! I'll be the first to buy it!]

[Yes, yes, yes! Teacher Chen, please publish a book! Call it "Chen's Parenting Secrets," and save us Chinese parents from this endless sea of ​​suffering!]

[Published! Published! Published!]

Seeing the screen filled with calls for him to publish a book, Chen Chu finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"No, stop messing around, okay?"

Chen Chu waved his hands repeatedly, looking resistant. "With my level of expertise, why would I publish a book? I sometimes need a second to even think about the multiplication table. Wouldn't it be misleading people if I published a book?"

"Forget it, I can't take this job."

However, before netizens could continue to persuade her, Chen Ziran, who had just finished showering and was passing by in her pajamas, suddenly twisted into the camera like a leash.

"Dad, I don't like hearing that!"

Chen Ziran grabbed Chen Chu's neck and launched into a frenzy into the camera, "You have to believe in yourself! Look at Aunt Sun Xuerong next door, always forcing her daughter to do this and that on TV. With that kind of level of expertise, she can still publish several books a year, like 'The Education Code' and 'Successful Mother,' making a fortune. Why can't you?!"

Chen Ziran became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he were already the agent of a bestselling author: "Look at what you're saying now, every word is reasonable and every word hits the nail on the head! To be recognized by millions of people across the internet, how high is the value of that?"

Dad, let me tell you, with your level of thinking, if this were in ancient times, it would be worth a thousand pieces of gold per word!

"A single word is worth a thousand pieces of gold. If you publish a book, it should be at least 100,000 words long. If you sell 100,000 words for twenty or thirty yuan, you're practically a philanthropist!"

Chen Chu's originally firm resolve was shaken by Chen Ziran's unexpected praise.

He coughed twice.

But I couldn't help but wonder, could it be... that I can really publish a book?

When the viewers in the live stream saw that Chen Ziran was helping out, they became even more enthusiastic.

[Ziran is right! Teacher Chen, you must have confidence in yourself! We support you unconditionally!]

[Exactly! Even Sun Xuerong's cynical chicken soup for the soul sells out, your sober and practical advice will definitely be a bestseller!]

【Chen Gou, you absolutely can do it! Don't underestimate yourself!】

Honestly, Lao Chen, someone as insightful about human nature and skilled at tailoring education to individual needs as you is only successful because you live in modern times and have been buried by the torrent of the internet. If you were born in ancient times, you would definitely be a sage on par with Confucius and Mencius! Three thousand disciples would be no problem, and you would certainly have had at least seventy-two sages!

"A sage?" Chen Chu stared at the two words floating across the screen, completely dumbfounded.

He touched his chin and looked at his unkempt self in the camera lens. He didn't look like a saint worthy of being enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple at all.

However, looking at the screen full of sincere supportive comments, and at the young people who had resolved their inner conflicts because of his words, Chen Chu suddenly felt an indescribable urge to try something new.

"or……"

Chen Chu's eyes flickered slightly. "Give it a try?"
