I asked you to write a light novel, but you wrote about living?

The people in the meeting room exchanged glances.

Someone has already opened their author account.

But some people still feel uneasy.

"If this matter is not handled properly, it could easily backfire."

"After all, it was a child who had already passed away."

That's why you can't talk about her.

Pei Zhixing's tone remained calm.

"You can't even criticize Yu Huashi."

"What you need to do is ask questions on behalf of the child who can no longer speak."

"Should her story be made public like this?"

"Should her death be broadcast live to millions of viewers?"

"Having just finished telling her story, they announce they're going to write a book. Is this a tribute or publicity?"

After the last question was answered.

In the meeting room, no one raised any further objections.

Soon, the first article was published.

I believe Yu Huashi may not have harbored malicious intent.

[But should a real, deceased underage girl be featured in a live stream watched by tens of millions of people without explicit authorization?]

The second article appeared soon after.

Free doesn't mean it has no commercial value.

Can the attention and users that a live stream watched by millions of people simultaneously, and an upcoming new work bring to the author and the platform, really be wiped out by a simple "it's free"?

The third article does not directly mention Yu Wen's name.

The title, however, is more eye-catching.

When real-life death becomes creative material, where are the boundaries of literature?

Followed by.

More and more authors and industry accounts are starting to speak out.

They did not use the same copy.

It also did not show any obvious signs of tissue damage.

There has been discussion about the privacy of minors.

Some people have questioned the review mechanism of Weiguang Literature.

Some people have analyzed the traffic-driving value behind free content.

Some people even edited Yu Wengang's words into a clip of less than twenty seconds.

In the picture.

The girl has passed away.

Yu Wen is preparing to write a book.

"We Three".

All the background information about that letter was cut out.

Only two things remained, forcibly linked together.

Real death.

Upcoming release.

In just a few minutes.

The phrase "consuming the dead" appeared for the first time in a popular discussion on StarNet.

……

Cloud Atlas Literature Headquarters.

Zhao Hongbo stared at the ever-rising public opinion curve in front of him and remained silent for a long time.

The secretary stood to the side without saying a word.

Until an encrypted communication is established.

Pei Zhixing's figure appeared on the light screen.

"You saw it?"

Zhao Hongbo asked.

"I saw it."

Pei Zhixing picked up his coffee, his tone indifferent.

"I was originally thinking about how to help those authors find a plausible reason."

"He delivered himself to our door."

Zhao Hongbo glanced expressionlessly at the rapidly spreading posts.

"This perspective is smarter than the literature of suffering you just discussed."

"Directly attacking his work will only increase his popularity."

"To attack a girl who has already passed away is to be courting death."

"This is just right."

Pei Zhixing looked at him.

What is Cloud Atlas preparing to do?

"Cloud Atlas can't do anything."

"This is a discussion among authors about the boundaries of creation."

"It has nothing to do with the platform."

Pei Zhixing understood.

Cloud Atlas will not reveal its outcome.

However, this content will not be suppressed by the algorithm.

As long as the discussion continues, the recommendation system will naturally push it to more users.

"That's enough."

Pei Zhixing cut off the communication.

Zhao Hongbo leaned back in his chair.

My gaze never left that ever-rising curve.

After the release of "To Live", Cloud Atlas tried to suppress the popularity.

After "The Old Man and the Sea" appeared, they tried to divert attention by using similar works and keywords to pollute the market.

All of them failed.

This time, they didn't touch the artwork.

Instead, it made everyone start to doubt the person who wrote these works.

……

Micro-Light Literature.

The red alerts in the background were almost continuous.

Yu Wen's sudden start to live streaming had already kept the technical department extremely busy.

They had just completed the temporary expansion when the public relations department's media monitoring system issued another top-level warning.

Negative keyword growth: 785%.

[High-risk keywords: privacy of minors, exploitation of the deceased, marketing based on suffering, platform manipulation.]

External discussion continues to grow rapidly.

In the conference room, everyone looked rather grim.

The public relations manager quickly retrieved the edited videos.

"This is the part that spread the fastest."

"The girl has passed away."

"Teacher Yu announces 'The Three of Us'."

"The entire middle section has been cut out."

The general counsel stared at the screen, his brow furrowed.

Do we have that mother's written authorization?

No one answered.

"What about your identity records?"

Still, no one answered.

"At least you have a way to contact me, right?"

"no."

"Teacher Yu did not notify the platform in advance about today's live broadcast."

"We only came in to provide technical support after the live stream started."

The general counsel's expression darkened further.

This does not mean that Yu Wen did anything wrong.

He did not disclose the names, addresses, or images of the mother and daughter.

But in the realm of public opinion, facts are never the first thing to take effect.

The faint light could not prove the mother's consent.

It also cannot be proven that this live stream was not planned by the platform.

They are even less able to immediately produce a complete explanation.

"The investment department has just received inquiries from three institutions."

Another executive said in a low voice.

"They wanted to know if the live stream was arranged by Weiguang."

"Two other partner platforms have also asked us to explain the situation as soon as possible."

The atmosphere in the meeting room grew increasingly heavy.

Yu Wen is no longer an ordinary contracted author.

He is a partner at Weiguang.

Every word he utters in public is seen by the outside world as a glimmer of hope.

Just as everyone was debating whether to issue a statement immediately or shut down the live replay, the meeting room door suddenly opened.
