Chapter 433 So-called Growth
Chapter 433 So-called Growth
Jiang Feng paused.
The live stream room fell silent for a moment.
The live chat exploded with comments.
【?????】
[Caught red-handed! She was watching the whole time!]
[Anke has been secretly watching the screen the whole time!]
[Miss Coco applies to join the team, hahaha!]
[The Saudi branch of the Wind Party is calling headquarters; headquarters has responded!]
Jiang Feng's lips twitched suddenly, and he clicked "agree".
"No way," he couldn't help but complain, "I haven't even had a chance to send the WeChat message yet, how come you clicked the invitation button faster than me?"
The next second, Anke joined the team.
Her voice, seemingly calm but clearly hiding a hint of smugness, came through the audio:
"I just happened to be watching your live stream."
"The boss selected me, can't I just join the team directly?"
Jiang Feng: "Okay."
"That's great."
Anke gave a soft hum.
Immediately afterwards, without needing Jiang Feng to act as a translator, An Ke went straight to the microphone and greeted Abdullah in extremely fluent English.
His pronunciation was extremely accurate, and his tone was elegant and natural.
This is definitely not the kind of "dumb English" and "Chinese accent" that you memorize to pass an exam. Instead, it is the kind of elite spoken English that you can truly communicate with ease in top international social situations because you have been immersed in a bilingual environment since childhood!
The chat room was stunned.
【?????】
Holy crap, is Anke's English this good?!
Soon, knowledgeable veteran fans began mercilessly explaining the facts in the live chat:
What are you all surprised about? Don't forget, An Keke isn't just any ordinary internet celebrity.
She's a genuine heiress from a wealthy family, okay?!
Coming from a family like this, isn't fluent English a basic requirement?
Do you really think Anke is like those beauty bloggers who can't do anything but flaunt their looks—all show and no substance?
I envy Jiang Feng.
However, the shock did not linger on Anke for long.
Because the more than two million audience members suddenly realized something even more chilling upon closer inspection.
Just now, when Jiang Feng was communicating with Saudi Prince Abdullah and providing simultaneous interpretation for the live broadcast... it seemed incredibly smooth!!
That's a bit outrageous.
Wait, I can understand that An Ke's English is good. But when did Jiang Feng's English become so good?
[Isn't he just an ordinary freshman in college? Where's all that "mute English" produced by nine years of compulsory education?!]
[Wait a minute! I remember when Ab first came to the live stream and sent gifts, Fengshen spoke to him in English, and he even stumbled over his words!]
Are there any long-time fans who can vouch for me? If I remember correctly, right?
The internet has no memory, but it does record videos.
Everyone clearly remembers that when Abdullah first appeared in the live stream and showered the audience with gifts, Jiang Feng's spoken English was indeed quite poor.
But things are completely different now!
While Jiang Feng's accent isn't exactly native-level, he can now understand, express himself, and even provide real-time simultaneous interpretation during live streams with remarkable fluency!
Especially when he relayed Abdullah's words to his fans, his logic was clear and his focus was accurate. This is definitely not something that can be faked by memorizing a few polite phrases beforehand.
The screen was instantly flooded with comments of shock:
Holy crap, Jiang Feng really learned it!
From struggling a few months ago to now being able to translate seamlessly in real time? That's an astonishing rate of progress!
[How did he manage to find time to learn English amidst all this time, with live streams, business deals, and competitions?]
No wonder he became famous; this person really doesn't waste time.
[Damn it, not only is he incredibly talented at gaming, but he's also so gifted at studying? It's unbelievable!]
Jiang Feng, seeing the screen filled with comments praising his "effort," casually offered an explanation without batting an eye:
"What do you mean by 'exaggerated progress'? I'm a top computer science student from a prestigious university, I should at least be learning, right?"
"Time is like water in a sponge; you can always squeeze some out. I just need to practice my spoken English whenever I have a spare moment. What can I do? I'm just a natural-born genius!"
Jiang Feng delivered his Versailles speech with remarkable ease.
But only he himself knew that this was all thanks to the help of the learning card group!
With a brain that's been given a cheat code, learning anything is like a game-changer.
However, this sarcastic remark took on a completely different meaning when it reached the ears of two million viewers.
Did you catch up on it when you had some free time?
Could a normal person, by taking the time to brush up on their knowledge, reach the level of simultaneous interpreting in just a few months?!
Not to mention how busy Jiang Feng has been lately, everyone on the internet has witnessed it: high-intensity live streaming, contacting top business partners, giving an exclusive interview on CCTV, filming promotional videos for Fliggy, managing the Zhengfeng e-sports club, participating in official large-scale offline press conferences... while also maintaining his top ranking in the national server and creating entertainment value!
Under such an almost insanely high-pressure schedule, how did he manage to squeeze out time to completely make up for his English deficiencies?!
This cannot be simply summarized by the word "effort".
This is an extremely terrifying, even suffocating, level of self-management ability!
Meanwhile, An Mingzhao had just taken over Jiangfeng Pan Business's top public relations team and demonstrated a chilling level of professionalism.
Almost at the same second that the live stream chat started buzzing about "Jiang Feng's rapid improvement in English", the team's public opinion monitoring group had already keenly sensed this extremely valuable new communication point!
A few minutes later, several extremely well-made comparison videos were edited and produced immediately.
The title was chosen with extreme precision, directly addressing a major pain point for the public:
#Jiangfeng's English progress speed#
#It turns out he really was working hard in secret#
#From stumbling blocks to fluent communication, Jiang Feng only took three months#
#Talent is scary, but self-discipline is even scarier#
An Mingzhao's team immediately bought the first wave of traffic.
Less than half an hour.
#JiangFeng'sEnglishProgressionSpeed# trended on social media.
Immediately afterwards, #JiangFengIsReallyWorkingHard# also climbed up.
Subsequently, An Mingzhao's team unleashed their true killer move—comparing and belittling each other.
Instead of blindly spreading rumors, they discreetly hired online trolls and marketing accounts to secretly criticize the Chinese entertainment industry.
This article is a scathing critique of the entertainment industry's "desperate illiterate" actors who earn exorbitant salaries but can't even memorize their lines or spell their own names correctly!
The contrast is devastating.
On one hand, there are popular idols who receive high salaries but lack ambition.
On the other side is an e-sports prodigy who, despite his sudden rise to fame, remains extremely self-disciplined and secretly studies English diligently in preparation for going international.
Public opinion instantly swayed to one-sided celebration!
An Mingzhao's team then shifted public opinion towards "the learning ability and self-management of the new generation of young public figures".
This is a much more sophisticated approach than simply praising Jiang Feng's good looks or marksmanship!
In this fast-paced era.
Beauty will eventually lead to aesthetic fatigue.
Amazing gameplay skills, once seen too often, become commonplace for viewers.
However, a top influencer standing at the forefront of the storm, after experiencing the immense wealth and fame of overnight fame, not only did not become arrogant, but also continued to learn in secret, frantically filled in his shortcomings, and even prepared to step onto a bigger international stage!
This is the true talisman that can break down barriers between social circles, attract a huge following among casual observers, and gain immense goodwill from mainstream society!
Jiang Feng is still, at heart, a twenty-year-old male college student living in a university dormitory.
His identity as a "college student" is an indelible part of his being.
The positive label of "lifelong learning" is firmly attached to Jiang Feng, and its effectiveness is outrageous!
And so, Jiang Feng became the kind of person he hated most.
Buy traffic, release press releases, engage in comparisons and denigration, and create a persona.
So-called growth is nothing more than a premeditated self-betrayal, sculpting oneself into the very thing one once hated.
Of course, Jiang Feng was unaware of all this.
