Chapter 381 The Video Becomes Very Popular

Even though Su Yang sang based on his instincts, he was not singing blindly. Whatever that happened in the virtual world, Su Yang was able to retrieve a video recording of it from Little Deeny within a day. Furthermore, the video would be taken from multiple angles. Hence, he had intended to get Little Deeny to upload the video after he finished singing.

Qing Zhu’s shout immediately made him feel a little awkward. After all, ‘I still need to have some acoustics in the future...’

Looking at Qing Zhu who was crying, Su Yang asked, “Are you... alright?”

The moment Su Yang opened his mouth, he was shocked. His voice suddenly sounded as if it was filled with vicissitudes of life.

He was so scared that he coughed a few times and adjusted himself before he could recover.

Qing Zhu raised her sleeve to wipe her tears. Then she shook her head, her face filled with sorrow. “I...I’m fine. I just feel that my master sings too well.”

Su Yang was speechless.

He looked around the backyard and realized that whether it was No. 17, No. 18, Gru or Little Hus, all of them were immersed in the song and did not come back to their senses for a long time. Dagger Girl had the most intense reaction. She was crying silently and was obviously touched.

Su Yang wondered ‘Was my singing really that good. Could it be that the little monsters did not listen to songs often?

‘Although, I was actually completely immersed in my own performance earlier. I feel like I have performed perfectly, but I have no idea how good I was.’

Therefore, he put down the guitar and wanted Little Deeny to send him the video.

However, the moment he put down the guitar, Su Yang felt as if all the knowledge, experience, and feelings that had just been imparted into him had been sucked out of his body. It was as if his stomach had suddenly become empty.

Su Yang looked at the guitar on the floor and closed his eyes as though he was lost.

‘I still have some remaining knowledge and experience, I can vaguely feel it. However, if I had to continue to play like that now, it probably wouldn’t work anymore.’

He took off his mask and picked up the guitar again. He played it a few times, but he realized that his hands were not smooth and the strings that he plucked sounded a little messy. After playing for a long time, he finally found a little bit of the previous feeling. ‘Objectively speaking, as a guitar rookie in the past, I didn’t even know how to play the guitar at all. It’s probably thanks to my basic abilities that I’m able to sing and play the guitar at all now.

‘Furthermore, the experience and level given by the basic ability can’t be considered to be amateurish. After all, I could probably be compared to a street singer.

‘However, compared to (Advanced Guitar Playing], [Basic Guitar Playing) really pales in comparison. It’s easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but it’s difficult to go the other way around. Sigh, I don’t think that I could ever leave this guitar again.’

He placed his hand on the guitar. A moment later, the guitar flashed, and a crystal guitar appeared in his hand.

Su Yang placed the crystal guitar in his pocket and asked Little Deeny to show him the video.

Little Deeny was obviously busy. When she heard Su Yang’s request, it took her 10 seconds to organize the video and send it to Su Yang.

Su Yang summoned the virtual interface and looked at the video he played earlier. ‘Hmm... how should I put it? After watching so many videos on TikTok and B Station, I have never seen anyone who could play better than me so far.

‘That’s how confident I am of myself!’

With such confidence, Su Yang naturally felt more relaxed. He felt, ‘With this video, I would probably be able to accumulate 100,000 fans very soon.’

Therefore, he edited the video and registered a TikTok account. He uploaded a 60 seconds clip of the video without even uploading a profile picture of himself.

‘Anyway, I only need 100,000 fans, this clip should do the trick.

‘I’m still very confident of myself.’

After doing all that, Su Yang packed up and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, his actions woke up the little monsters who were in a daze. Little Hus shouted, “Encore! Encore!”

Qing Zhu said, “Master, I still want to hear more!”

Dagger Girl said, “Master, please continue singing! It sounds so nice!”

Gru said, “Gru Gru!”

No. 17 and No. 18 said, “Dou! Dou Dou!”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘What’s wrong? Do they think I’m a celebrity now?

‘Then... should I satisfy the audience’s enthusiasm?’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang thought about it for a moment. ‘I have nothing else to do today, so I might as well satisfy the little monsters’ request.’ Therefore, he sat down, put on his mask, and continued to sing.

At first, only Little Hus and the others were listening. Then Janet, 7 Little Deenies, Satantan, Fatty and all the Little Monster Beans came.

At night, Sanque, Bubbles, Pool and the other workers came as well.

The entire family of little monsters arrived at the backyard in an orderly manner. They surrounded Su Yang and listened to him sing one song after another.

Su Yang was wearing a mask and playing his guitar. At first, he found it interesting, but later on... he felt like he was being watched like a lunatic.

Perhaps he had been singing for too long, he felt that his mouth was dry and his fingers were sore. He had even changed his mask several times.

However, Su Yang continued singing when he saw the happy and intoxicated faces of the little monsters.

He was the kind of person who would be shy most of the time and did not have a good personality. However, the loyalty, care, and companionship these monsters had towards him for so long made him gradually accept them as part of his family.

Thus, the concert went on from 6 pm to 11 pm.

In the end, Little Deeny, who had many clones, was the first to regain her senses. She stood up the moment the concert had ended to mark the end of the concert.

Even though the monsters were still reluctant to leave, they could tell that Su Yang was pulling up a strong front to hang in there when they woke up from their daze. Hence, they quickly escorted Su Yang back to his room to rest.

Even No. 17, who did not get along well with Su Yang, dragged his sister and jumped onto Su Yang and gave him a massage.

While Su Yang was enjoying the massage from the little monsters, he was thinking to himself, ‘If I could capture 17 by surprise, would I finally be able to deal with him?

‘This monster has been mocking me for so long now...

Su Yang laughed mentally.

However, after thinking about it, Su Yang still felt that it was too cruel to teach No. 17 a lesson in front of his sister. Hence, he decided to let him off the hook that time.

‘I’m such a nice person.’ Su Yang thought that to himself before he closed his eyes and fell asleep while enjoying the massage.

While he was asleep, the video he posted caused a huge commotion on TikTok.

As everyone knows, TikTok is a platform that would recommend videos to users based on an algorithm calculated by artificial intelligence. That means if you like to watch people singing, you will have some songs recommended to you.

However, what users didn’t know was that the popularity of a video on TikTok was not solely based on a calculated algorithm, but also because the “Traffic Pool Advancement Law” which was equally important.

The “Traffic Pool Advancement Law” means, when a user first uploads their video, it would not be sent to all of the users directly. Instead, it would be uploaded into a smaller traffic pool for quality testing.

There were roughly 1,000-2,000 users in the smaller traffic pool.

In other words, the first video a user uploaded would usually be simultaneously uploaded to 1,000-2,000 users’s TikTok. If the amount of likes, comments, and viewership ratings were high, then that video would be judged by artificial intelligence as popular content. Then, the video would advance to the next level and the video would be given the rights to enter the next traffic pool which has 4,000-5,000 users.

If the video was still up to standard in the 4,000-5,000 users traffic pool, it would then be sent to the 10,000 users traffic pool.

If the video was still able to meet the advancement criteria, it would be able to advance into the 100,000, 1 million, 10 million, or even the entire TikTok community.

The law is very effective and when the powerful artificial intelligence’s algorithm is included, it creates the legendary TikTok which has become very popular to date. It is also the first app in the country that was truly going leaps and bounds.

Similarly, because the artificial intelligence algorithm required a high amount of accurate data, the ratio between number of views, likes and comments on each video was within a rough range for its judgment. For example, if there were 1,000 views, the number of likes would usually be between 1-300. But tonight, there was a video that completely transcended the range of its judgment... This was a very simple video. It was only a 60 seconds long video since the uploader had not even unlocked the privilege to upload longer videos.

The setting was very simple as well. It was a masked man sitting on a small bench with a guitar in his hands and he was silently singing.

There were no fancy performances, no exaggerated expressions, just someone singing silently.

There were no flashy effects or elegant movements. There was only a deep, magnetic voice...

The lyrics struck audiences directly at their hearts, making their hearts tremble...

Everyone who saw this video could not help but do these three things! A simple video did not mean that it could not move people’s hearts. Similarly, it could not be said that people would not like a simple song with no special effects either. Many users listened to the song over and over again while they frantically clicked on the like button before they forwarded it to their friends! Then, they commented on the video! Su Yang’s video had exploded when it entered the first traffic pool of 2,000 users.

,000 users, 1,500 likes! More than 1,000 comments!

“D*mn! I’m crying after listening to this, can you guys believe it?!” “Were you crying? How weak! Actually... I cried as well.”

“I’m off to find the person I love now, I’m going to confess to her! I can’t wait any longer!”

“His voice gave me goosebumps.”

“Where’s the rest? What happened to it? How is it that the song stopped halfway!” “By the way, do you find the guy in the video handsome?”

“Is there something wrong with you? How could you tell if he’s handsome or not when he’s wearing a mask? However, the uploader does have a really nice name. “Distant”, it sounds like he’s a handsome young man.” “What does the name “Distant” mean?”

“It looks like it was created randomly. Look, the uploader doesn’t even have a profile picture. He doesn’t have any likes or any activities.”

“Please keep on uploading! Your singing sounded really nice!”

And so, just like that, a video was uploaded from an unknown account. It was just a simple video of someone singing, there was no comedy, no special effects, no plot, nothing at all. But... it managed to become popular just like that!

The video managed to skip past the 5,000 users traffic pool from the 1,000-2,000 users traffic pool and advanced to the 10,000 users traffic pool. The video then continued to advance to the 100,000 users traffic pool. From hindsight, the video was making its way to the top at lightning speed!
