Chapter 34: Netizens threaten the production team online: Go help Ye Xuan with his work!
As if afraid the netizens wouldn't believe him, Wang Wen even uploaded a photo as proof.
In the photo, Ye Xuan is wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, standing in the pigsty pointing at a piglet.
At first glance, he even has the aura of a pig farm manager.
Once this photo was posted, it immediately sparked heated discussion among countless netizens.
"I remember now, he really does have a pig farm. The 'pig-farming tycoon' is a real pig-farming tycoon!"
"But when is *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* going to update... I'm literally about to cry. I've already read it ten times in the past few days!"
"If he doesn't update soon, I hope Ye Xuan eats instant noodles without seasoning, drinks pearl milk tea without pearls, eats watermelon full of seeds, eats durian that's all shell, has his teammates go AFK in *Honor of Kings*, forgets his ID card when catching a flight or high-speed train, forgets his passport when going abroad, and runs out of toilet paper..."
"The person above is so savage. I'll add one: eating eight-treasure porridge without a spoon, eating fish full of bones, getting bitten by mosquitoes while sleeping, and it raining the moment you go out... When is he finally going to update!"
……
Just as the netizens in the super-topic were wailing in despair, a message suddenly drifted in.
"Can I interpret it this way: if we find people to help Ye Xuan with his work, will he have time to update then?!"
Huh? That's right!
If there are people helping him with the work, wouldn't Ye Xuan be able to free up his hands to update?!
The goal is to leave Ye Xuan with no excuse to delay the update any longer! ===== CHAPTER 68 =====
With this thought, the thread beneath that message was immediately flooded with replies.
"Living on the same planet, how are you so brilliant?! Your brain really works well!"
"But who are we going to find to do the work?!"
"Report! I volunteer to help Ye Xuan with his work! Starting to look at tickets!"
"I'm 800 kilometers away from Qiong Village, booking a ticket!"
After one excited comment after another appeared, a rational fan couldn't stand it anymore and popped up.
"Why don't we just find the *Back to Farming* production team?!"
Find the production team?!
Once this message appeared, even Wang Wen in front of the screen was stunned for a second.
That's right!
Isn't the production team filming in Qiong Village?
Aren't they ready-made labor?!
……
On the other side, the director of the *Back to Farming* production team was worrying while looking at the number of online viewers in the live stream.
The current new task for the six guests is to go down to the fields and transplant rice seedlings, which can be considered as hitting the theme of the show.
He had thought that having glamorous big stars go down to the fields to do farm work would attract a huge wave of attention.
These are top-tier entertainment stars, how down-to-earth!
Didn't you see Sha Yi fall face-first into the mud?!
Didn't you see Reba with mud smeared on her face?!
Didn't you see Yang Mi looking like a village girl?!
But as it happens, the peak number of online viewers in the live stream is only around 50,000.
On a normal day, it just hovers between 20,000 and 30,000.
The director, who didn't have many hairs to begin with, was now so worried he was about to go bald.
Just as he was staring blankly at the online viewer count, suddenly, the number in the top right corner of the screen surged violently.
30,000!
50,000!
100,000!
150,000!
200,000!
Every time the director blinked, the online viewer count on the screen jumped to a new number.
Is this a dream?
Or are my eyes playing tricks on me?!
He rubbed his eyes hard, opened them, closed them, closed them, and opened them again.
When he realized the number of people in the live stream had reached 240,000, the director stood up abruptly.
The water cup beside him was knocked to the ground by his sudden, rapid movement.
But the director turned a deaf ear, his entire attention focused on the live stream.
He saw the barrage of comments coming in like snowflakes, scrolling so fast that the text was almost unreadable.
"110! Emergency call to the production team! Emergency call to the production team!"
"Why are you still farming? Why are you transplanting seedlings? Go help Ye Xuan with his work!"
"If you don't help Ye Xuan with his work, *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* won't update!"
"Listen to the voices of the vast number of netizens! Why are you still operating, production team? Hurry and find Ye Xuan, that's the most important thing..."
"Please, production team, go make Ye Xuan act like a human being..."
"If you don't go help Ye Xuan, we won't watch the show anymore."
……
Watching the barrage of comments, the director couldn't react for a moment.
Did all these suddenly surging netizens come here just for Ye Xuan?!
What's going on?!
How did his large-scale reality show about life turn into a large-scale "urge-to-work" scene?!
Just as the director was stunned, the assistant director's shout rang out.
"Director, our Weibo has been breached!"
Weibo has been breached?
The director turned his head sharply and saw that on the official Weibo of *Back to Farming*, the latest message was still from a day ago: [#The six big stars of Back to Farming have started transplanting seedlings...].
He had checked their official Weibo this morning and remembered the data at the time:
Likes and reposts were barely over 100,000, and the most difficult metric, the number of comments, hadn't even reached 10,000.
But now, what was he seeing?!
Likes and reposts had reached 200,000, and the most crucial comment count had already hit 50,000!
Looking further down, the comment pinned to the very top read like this:
"Online requisitioning of the production team! Why is *Back to Farming* still farming? Hurry up and go help Ye Xuan with his work! If Ye Xuan finishes his work early, he can update *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*!"
And every time he refreshed, new comments appeared below the Weibo post.
"For the happiness of millions of book fans, production team, hurry up and get moving!"
"My dog has never chased a novel like *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*, he says he can't wait even a day, please director team, hurry up and urge Ye Xuan!"
"Ye Xuan has stopped updating for three days! Production team, hurry up and go do the work, don't wait even a minute!"
"If you want Ye Xuan to update quickly, hurry up and release the production team! [Dog head]"
……
Looking at these messages, the director and assistant director looked at each other, big question marks appearing over their heads.
Their production team was clearly being requisitioned as labor!
Is this the legendary "sitting at home, work falls from the sky"?!
The chosen worker, if not me, who?!
And the next instant, the ding-dong sound of Weibo mentions rang out again.
[Zhang Jizhong: @Back to Farming official Weibo, when the production team has time, could you help Ye Xuan with a little work?! #Millions urge update for The Legend of the Condor Heroes]
The director and assistant director both had their pupils dilate in shock.
Even the big entertainment director Zhang Jizhong has come to greet them?! ===== CHAPTER 69 =====
