Translator: 549690339

As the saying goes, ‘many people enjoy a good show,’ many netizens were eagerly waiting for Finn Lewis’s response, especially considering the fans of Finn Lewis, who couldn’t argue with the fans of the opposition as Finn chose to remain silent. Furthermore, Jay Summer, the critic, always seemed to have the upper hand in their debates – his opinions swaying the common public with ease.

The critic’s knack for offending seemed to strike a chord with many, knowing just what exactly to say to gain attention. Thus, Finn Lewis’s fans had no chance of winning an argument against him, not to mention that among over a million followers of Finn’s, there were only a few loyal fans.

Once Finn Lewis responded, everyone got excited. Many of Finn’s followers relish drama and joined him in the vigorous online criticism of Jay Summer. And Jay, being the habitual Internet addict he was, noticed Finn’s response as soon as it was posted. Jay’s face lit up with an excited grin as he rushed to his laptop to log on to his microblog.

Ha-ha! This is awesome! With Finn’s response, Jay couldn’t contain his excitement. He knew his current success was birthed from criticizing others, and by now he had reached a bottleneck in his fame, evidenced by his growing presence in the national entertainment industry and Pearl Island City. Many entertainment companies, in their attempt to avoid his venomous words, contacted him privately, bribing him with copious gifts, from which he derived most of his earnings. The control he had over this lifestyle brought him immense satisfaction. The feeling of being feared, like a cat among mice, was thrilling to him. Just one word from him could make any star publicly apologize or clarify a situation – this was exciting for him.

Many minor celebrities even sought his services to promote themselves, even going as far as to ask him to slander them. This led him to believe in the allure of his current status more than ever. He was aware of what had led him to where he was now; however, he knew that he was at a plateau in terms of fame and needed a breakthrough. So, he quickly set his sights on Finn Lewis, an emerging world billionaire. If he could bring down a world billionaire, his reputation in the circle would be unparalleled in the future, wouldn’t it?

So without hesitation, he took aim at Finn Lewis, who was also a topic-rich person. In Jay’s view, he saw no possibility of failure when discussing the matters Finn was involved in. Such people deserved to be criticized! The most crucial part was, how could just one person become the world’s richest man?

Another substantive reason Jay had for slandering Finn was one he would never admit out loud: he had a gnawing jealousy bottled up inside him.

So, when he saw Finn’s response, he was immediately energized. His fighting spirit was activated as he rapidly typed out a lengthy response on his computer, “Indeed this has nothing to do with me, but as an ordinary person who went to the cinema to watch a movie, shouldn’t I have the right to discuss it? Can such a shoddy movie justify its audience? Besides, many cinemas promote without any conscience after filming. I believe many people have been deceived into the cinema by movie trailers. I certainly don’t want us, the ordinary cinema-goers, to be the fooled ones making such choices.”

No denying, Jay had a firm grasp of the essence of criticism. When you decide to criticize on the Internet, you need to know how to do it effectively—you cannot just criticize for the sake of criticizing. You should open a comprehensive debate that accommodates all, putting yourself in the shoes of the misguided audience to win them over, thus building up a crowd to defend your point, even when the opposition counters it.

Jay didn’t say much; he simply summarized his points and turned them into a challenge for Finn, then hit the send button. Given the sheer number of Finn’s fans who were busy defending Finn against Jay, his new declaration was instantly noticed by countless people.

Finn also saw this the moment it came up. But after reading Jay’s words, Finn realized that this guy was indeed a master at criticizing as a profession. However, Finn was determined to beat him at his own game!

While Jay was indeed a professional critic, he missed one crucial point in his argument. Yes, there are many moviegoers, but not everyone who watches a movie also surfs the internet, and not everyone who watches a movie would necessarily pay attention to this particular dispute. However, someone’s feelings were hurt by Jay’s ‘shoddily made movie’ comment.

These people were the gamers who diligently created these game videos. Because the WY announcement specifically prohibited professional film studios and professionals from participating, only real gamers could join. So, in order to create these videos, these gamers put in a lot of effort! free𝑤ebnovel.com

Many videos were made with the collective hard work of hundreds of people in a guild! Jay’s ‘shoddily made’ comment directly offended these gamers.

God damn it! You said that the video that we worked so hard to make is ‘shoddily made’? You need to know that even though the video was recorded with a game, it was not easy at all – especially with the dubbing, character control, and other aspects. Most of them weren’t professionals and didn’t have many professional tools. To film a scene in the game, you sometimes need many people to record for several tens of minutes.

Inside the game, if you want to film a scene, you need to negotiate with other players passing through the map. After all, the game map is not yours alone. If you want to use the map, you can’t prevent other players from coming to do quests, right? Therefore, although it can’t be compared with shooting a movie in reality, it’s definitely not that simple.

Do you know how many players are in the world now? The number of people playing the game online regularly exceeded 7 million, and that was a top value. The average number of players is close to 20 million, and this number has pretty much dominated the domestic online game market. According to the calculation of an hourly fee of 6 cents, the fee for 7 million people being online for an hour would be a total of 4.2 million Flame Nation coins. The income for 24 hours a day is a full billion, and a month’s income would equal 30 billion Flame Nation coins.
