Chapter 1637

~6 min read 1,132 words

In "As I Wrote It," the star saw: nebulae blooming with light, outlining the contours of a garden. A new world was about to sprout.

This scene is the ending of "As I Wrote It," and also the origin of Wengfaluo Si in reality; one day, it will give birth to true life. The people in memory will be born one by one, awaiting "tomorrow."

The stars breathed silently. The star was certain that Wengfaluo Si's "fruit" had already been planted.

""

The star lowered her head in contemplation.

But what of its "cause"? Before that day arrives, the journey will continue. Infinite possibilities lie beneath her feet, only "memory"... only "memory" remains left behind in yesterday.

Perhaps she could still do something more.

She recalled the promise of "pioneering": the story of Huoyouzhe will be sung among the stars. People will remember that Wengfaluo Si is a brilliant, magnificent world.

She thought: she could let more people read "As I Wrote It," preserving the memory of this world. If she did so, cause and effect would become more solid... she could not be certain, but she was willing to believe.

What matters is that this is a promise, her promise to many people.

Kaguya Shinomiya wants me to confess.

"Let more people read 'As I Wrote It'... could it be that she wants to publish this book?"

Xiao Mizi counted on her fingers: "Novels, films, manga, TV dramas, games... the story of Wengfaluo Si is simply too long; I think even if we only took the 33550336th lifetime in which the star participated, it would be enough to make over a hundred episodes of TV drama and ten to twenty hours of film."

"Films are great!" Fujiwara Chika clapped excitedly, as if she had already seen the scene of a box office hit, her eyes sparkling, "If made into a film, the part about subduing the Sky Titan will absolutely be explosive! We must use the music from the time of battle! Although even now we haven't figured out where that song comes from... but I got goosebumps!"

"And then, there's Bai E challenging Nan Nu Ke! I, I won't allow anyone in the universe to not have seen Bai E's efforts; Bai E deserves to be liked by everyone!"

Thinking this, Fujiwara felt that spreading the story of Wengfaluo Si was immensely meaningful—not only Bai E and Xilian's Qian Wan Shi perseverance, Sai Feier's "Fushiji," Na Ke Xia's sacrifice for truth... each of the Twelve Golden Descendants, in darkness, stubbornly radiated light.

"So, should the publishing be handled by the company?"

"Of course, although the company only wants to make money, we must admit that in the entertainment industry and influence, no force can overwhelm the company." Kaguya Shinomiya lifted her teacup and took a gentle sip, "As long as this matter is profitable, the company will pour twelve parts of enthusiasm into completing it; they will never quarrel over credit points."

After returning to the train, the star shared her thoughts in detail with Walter and Ji Zi.

"... The star means, you want to massively photocopy the text of 'As I Wrote It' and make it into a book for publication?" Ji Zi lowered her head to think for a moment, "The idea is not bad. However, publications released on the interstellar network must rely on the company's channels. I am not sure what their attitude is toward this."

"Don't worry, we have allies."

Soon, the projections of Topaz and Shajin appeared before everyone.

"The planning content, we have already discussed with the Business Consolidation Department. Conclusion: approved for execution." Topaz said, "This plan being negotiable is thanks to the experience on Yali Luo-IV. Compared to short-term benefits, establishing a 'storage and protection' paradigm is more conducive to long-term development."

Shajin: "Moreover, safeguarding civilizations in their cradle is naturally the duty of the Strategic Investment Department—according to Professor Lai Te Ao's words, stabilizing the galaxy's shared cognition of Wengfaluo Si will, to some extent, aid its future."

Topaz nodded: "Exactly so. The Interstellar Peace Entertainment Association will handle the publication affairs of 'As I Wrote It,' and related expenses will also be borne by the company. As for the part of contacting various planets, that will be entrusted to the Unnamed Guest."

Ji Zi looked at the star with some surprise: "It seems you have long been prepared. Truly worthy of being Wengfaluo Si's 'Quanshi Zuo'."

Walter also couldn't help but sigh: "Perhaps not long from now, the train will be shouldered by the children."

"Heh... don't emit such an old-fashioned sigh, Walter—we are still young."

Ji Zi turned her head slightly reproachfully and glanced at Walter, then continued speaking to the star: "Although the company is helping, given your personality, you surely want to run a trip yourself, right? Then go, go sow the seeds of civilization, create your own story."

The star nodded: "It is a story belonging to everyone."

"Cheer on, just as the Unnamed Guest's unwritten rule: forward without hesitation, persevere to the end."

These few from the Strategic Investment Department are really reliable; it seems even within the same company, one cannot generalize.

Although everyone in the company values money greatly, Ryuga clearly felt that these few from the Strategic Investment Department are completely different, and I don't know how the other Shixin Ten are in character?

"Of course, internal factions are rampant within the company, with various covert obstructions." Sento said coldly, "At least on the surface, the Strategic Investment Department and the Market Expansion Department are in opposition, Osvaldo and Diamond—being able to contend with a Storage and Protection Envoy is enough to see Osvaldo's methods."

"What about the company's other departments? Construction Materials Logistics Department? Technology Research and Development Department? Personnel Incentive Department? Are we just going to watch these two major departments cause a ruckus inside the company?"

"Of course not just watching. Beneath the water surface, these departments are weighing pros and cons, waiting for the opportunity of the outcome, or trying to seize more power from the chaos..." Sento continued speculating with interest, "Such internal strife, I think, is also a method used by the company directors—even Fleming and Dongfang Qixing—to balance internal power within the company. Either side of the Strategic Investment Department and the Market Expansion Department becoming dominant might not be what they wish to see."

"But... this internal strife is like the company fighting itself, damaging not only the company's own interests?" Ryuga listened, feeling his confusion not diminish but increase.

Sento nodded, his gaze toward the distant sky curtain: "Indeed it will bring some loss, but compared to the risk brought by one of them becoming dominant, such loss should still fall within the company's acceptable range."
