Chapter 211: Surging Popularity!
Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu was the most frightening existence that autumn, and with the advent of the news articles surfacing amongst the public, it appeared as though the disease was defeated.
“There’s a cure?!”
When that particular piece of news popped up on the public’s mobile phone, everyone’s heart skipped a beat.
Could it be some sensational rumor or merely a medical advertisement?
Doubts aside, they clicked on the news.
Catching their attention was a large picture, the location of which was Metropolis Hospital’s treatment room. The quarantine area for Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu was also included in the shot besides the room.
As could be seen from the photos, many who had fallen into despair were smiling with hope.
Scrolling downward, there were two photos for comparison.
One was a picture of a sick child, and the other was a picture of the same child-eating. The child’s complexion in the latter picture was much better!
Finally, the news ended with a sentence.
“This terrible Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu came violently and trampled on people’s precious lives. However, it was finally overcome today! Let us all remember this day!”
Besides, authoritative news outlets such as Xinhua Daily and People’s Daily have also tagged Metropolis Hospital. It was hoped that they could produce the medicine as soon as possible and save the public as fast as they could!
Those media outlets represented the central government!
At that moment, countless people flocked to Metropolis Hospital like crazy. There were sick individuals, media personnel, as well as famous doctors from all over the world!
The drug appeared so abruptly that it shocked the entirety of China as if God was lending them a helping hand.
The five most renowned medical professors at Metropolis Hospital had undoubtedly become the focus of the attention.
With no other choice, they stepped forward together and faced the public!
“May I ask, how was this drug developed?” a reporter asked. That was precisely the question on everyone’s mind.
“There was a miracle doctor, someone with unparalleled medical skills and quaint medical ethics. Hua Tuo has long passed on, but that miracle doctor lives amongst us. He has commanded my respect!” Grandmaster Yu’s face was solemn, with admiration and reverence flashing in his eyes as he spoke.
“His presence showed me the pinnacle of Chinese medicine. He is our country’s hidden talent. Chinese medicine is our pride!” Grandmaster Chen offered a remark as well.
Those five doctors were the most influential figures in the medical world of China, yet they were unduly generous in praising that person. It only piqued everyone else’s interest even more.
“May I ask if you can tell us who he is?” the reporter pressed on.
“The miracle doctor has his own preferences. He values quietness and doesn’t like attention.” Grandmaster Jiang then stood forward and held the paper that Ye Lingchen had written!
“This was left by the miracle doctor. It will forever be displayed in that treatment room. This is the most glorious testimony of our medical community!”
Click, click, click!
Camera lenses were all aimed at the paper and flashes were fired in a continuous stream.
The piece of paper bore the lives of countless people throughout China. For the first time, it was finally exposed to the eyes of the world.
It was a prescription to counter the Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu—a medicinal recipe that saved countless lives and families!
Everyone looked at it word-for-word, with many unable to hold themselves back from being moved to tears.
On that day, the video of that prescription even flooded TikTok. It was a simple prescription with medicinal ingredients that were unfamiliar to many people, yet it had already received 10 million likes!
It was the first time a video on TikTok received 10 million likes!
However, the instant everyone saw the final inscription, everything boiled over completely!
The inscription was—Y!
[Y! Yeah, I should’ve known. It had to be Y.]
[Huhuhu, I have no idea why, but I can’t stop myself from crying when I saw Y. Can someone tell me why?]
[Well, that’s because Y has now become the ultimate symbol of hope. Haven’t you noticed that? As long as it’s Y, a miracle is always on the horizon, and it would bring hope!]
[Yeah, so many Ys, is there any one of them who did not make us emotional and heartfelt? I’ve unknowingly fallen in love with the letter Y. When I see it, it feels like I’m looking at a loved one.]
[This is the miracle doctor’s character! He brushes off everything once the deed is done and he seeks to hide his accomplishments!]
[Huhuhu, Miracle Doctor Y, may I ask where you are? I haven’t paid you for the treatment yet. Name a price, just name it!]
[Yes, Miracle Doctor Y, we want to pay you for our medical expenses, we owe you our life!]
[Look at Miracle Doctor Y, then look at how high medical expenses are now. How could human connection stray so far?]
...
Things that have been generally accepted by the masses become trends. Y had become the trend of an era and was truly a sacred existence.
The matter at hand was undoubtedly a nationwide concern, tugging on the emotions of countless people. Be it children or the elderly, everyone firmly had that name etched into their minds—Miracle Doctor Y.
Xinhua Daily even came out to commend Miracle Doctor Y.
Metropolis Hospital also announced to the public that Miracle Doctor Y will be its visiting physician. He was given only temporary assignments but enjoyed the highest standard of benefits.
Ye Lingchen was equally excited on that day. He stayed in his room and never took a single step out.
All his energy was spent staring at the system interface, or more precisely, his soaring popularity.
His popularity value had not stopped increasing ever since midnight. It surged upward at preposterous speeds, with the numbers scrolling like a click of the scroll wheel. The rapid change was simply dazzling.
The original popularity value of 200,000 exceeded 300,000 in a blink of an eye, then 400,000, 500,000, 600,000...
It only stopped when it rose to 893,789!
Unprecedented! Truly unprecedented!
The increase shocked Ye Lingchen somewhat and his face flushed with excitement.
Frightening!
Utterly explosive!
That wave directly raised his popularity score by more than 600,000!
What was the significance? It should be mentioned that Ye Lingchen popularity score only gained a total of 600,000 since the beginning. In other words, the present wave was equivalent to the total sum of Ye Lingchen’s previous popularity!
Sure enough, major events affecting the country and its people was the fastest way to gain popularity.
That was just one instance of the Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu. If he were to save the world, would his popularity not shoot up to mind-bending levels?
Ye Lingchen was only fantasizing, of course. Saving the world...was too tiring, and more importantly, it might never be his turn to save the world then.
Ye Lingchen looked forward to inch closer to the one-millionth mark. Once that was achieved, he wondered how big of an upgrade he would have in his intermediate-level knowledge.
He had to continue with persistent efforts!
Ye Lingchen prepped him up before switching on his computer and started writing like a maniac.
That period of time was also a very memorable moment for Celestial Bane.
With the increase in the number of words, Celestial Bane’s impact was also explosive, with the numbers increasing exponentially every day.
It stood out from the beginning, and such unheard-of grandeur swiftly propelled it to become the most highly-read novel throughout the entire internet!
