Chapter 232: Chapter 124 Unsophisticated Lin Baici_1
The lights were out, but nobody felt like sleeping.
"Understanding how to hide your talents is also a merit!"
Bai Jiao commented.
"Lin Baici is so handsome, yet he doesn’t have any talents, which always seems like such a waste!"
Pei Fei felt regretful.
"No, that’s where you’re wrong. Why should talents be considered a plus for someone? For a man, it’s about whether he has extraordinary abilities, whether he can earn a high salary, that’s what really counts!"
Bai Jiao thought their roommates were still childlike in their thinking, except Ji Xinyan, who was more mature.
"Is having talents a bad thing?"
Zhou Zhou countered.
"I didn’t say it was bad, just that it’s not necessary!"
Bai Jiao explained.
"I think talking about money is so vulgar!"
A girl muttered, and immediately there was a chorus of agreement.
Bai Jiao shook her head, a bunch of silly birds, she couldn’t be bothered to argue.
Wait until you graduate and see the pitiful amount of money in your wallets, not even enough to buy the most expensive type of sanitary pads, then you’ll realize having a boyfriend who sings well is less important than earning a few more yuan.
This time, Ji Xinyan sided with Bai Jiao.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Xu could be considered a man with talents, right? I’ve seen his livestreams. Although he doesn’t have as many followers as he claims to, it’s still not bad, definitely above average!"
Zhou Zhou was envious; Xu Daguan must be making quite a lot of money each month.
"Can we change the subject?"
Bai Jiao didn’t want to hear that name.
"Seconded!"
Ji Xinyan also didn’t want to hear it.
"I think you guys are biased against Xu Daguan!"
Zhou Zhou didn’t mean to defend Xu Daguan; she just felt that this guy was okay, yet the two brightest roommates in the dorm thought otherwise, which made Zhou Zhou feel like her judgment was being belittled.
Bai Jiao didn’t respond; first, she didn’t want to argue with her roommates over a guy and damage their relationship, and second, walls have ears—her remarks about others could very well reach their subjects.
But Ji Xinyan didn’t care about that and continued, "I do have a bias against him!"
I hate that he sneakily glanced at my feet and invited me for coffee, and then wanted me to appear in his livestream.
Zhou Zhou wanted to keep arguing, but Pei Fei, seeing that things might turn sour, quickly changed the topic: "Actually, Fang Mingyuan is also quite nice. Apart from playing basketball, he has no bad habits, and his physical condition is really great!"
"Hey hey, great physical condition? Did you forget that Lin Baici killed a mad dog with a shot from tens of meters away? If this were ancient times, he would have been considered a warrior who could take on a thousand enemies!"
Ji Xinyan thought that dating Lin Baici would surely mean spending a sweet night, at least without the worry of him running out of steam after ten minutes.
"I recently saw a video, it was amazing, let me show you!"
Bai Jiao didn’t want to continue these topics and risk another dispute, so she opened the Bilibili app and found a Buddhist scripture in her favorites to play.
Once everyone listened to it, any desire to argue would surely fade.
Because Bai Jiao had tried it; whether feeling annoyed and excited or down and bored, listening to this Buddhist scripture would always bring her peace of mind.
Bodhisattva of Compassion
...
As soon as the scripture started playing, everyone began to chatter.
"I know this one, it’s super popular on Bilibili right now, it’s been topping the charts for weeks!"
Pei Fei really liked this Heart Sutra. She’d listen to it before studying to quickly dispel any stray thoughts and focus.
"He’s just released a second scripture, the Diamond Sutra, and it’s a hit too!"
Ji Xinyan also enjoyed listening and had even turned on special notifications for it.
"That’s right, people thought he was a one-hit wonder, a fluke hit, but the second Diamond Sutra is even more explosive. It’s over twenty minutes long and so immersive, after listening to the whole thing, I felt like I had ascended spiritually!"
Bai Jiao really liked this content creator.
"I bet a bunch of companies are waving checks to sign him by now, huh?"
Zhou Zhou was envious.
"For sure, someone like him is a cash cow, and even better, he doesn’t need any watering or nurturing, just sign him and start making money!"
Ji Xinyan was certain.
"If he signs with a shady company, this content creator will be at a huge loss!"
Zhou Zhou had seen many such lawsuits, like the most explosive one involving a content creator with the surname Li, who had stopped streaming for a long time due to the legal disputes.
"Why not go solo?"
Pei Fei didn’t understand.
"Being a blogger isn’t as easy as you think. Copywriting, packaging, filming, promotion, and so on—if one person tries to handle it all, it’s too demanding, and they might not even have the talent!"
Ji Xinyan shared her knowledge: "In the early stages, one person might handle it, but to grow and succeed, you definitely need to build a team!"
"Anyway, he’s really popular now. There are so many chanting videos on Douyin and Kuaishou. They are all imitating him!"
Zhou Zhou figured that the content creator must be earning a decent amount from these two videos.
There was a girl in the dormitory, Liu Zilu, who usually only used Xiaohongshu and didn’t go on Bilibili. Today was the first time she’d heard the original and thought it was amazing, so she immediately downloaded the Bilibili app. Upon opening it, she found the video on the homepage promotion.
She clicked it, and it was all bullet comments.
Liu Zilu turned off the comments and found that there was no one in the video, just a background image.
"He doesn’t show his face?"
Liu Zilu was a bit disappointed.
"Maybe he’s kind of ugly?"
Pei Fei guessed.
"In this kind of video, it’s all about the music, so why do you care if the content creator is ugly or not?"
Bai Jiao thought these people were a bit shallow, not grasping the essence of things, whether ugly or beautiful, it was none of their business.
"More than looks, I’m curious about his identity. He must be a high monk from a temple, right? I want to go and light a stick of incense, pay respects to Buddha!"
