23 Internet Legend

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After the video was edited, it was sent backstage for review.

The video software backend editor immediately noticed this video.

Seeing that the protagonist in the video was Lance, they paused.

After carefully watching the content of the video a few times, the reviewer came to a conclusion—there was a possibility that this video would become popular!

Hence, the reviewers immediately contacted the author of the video.

[Hello, based on our observations, we noticed that your video has a tendency to go viral.]

[May I ask if there's any follow-up to this matter?]

After a brief discussion, the video's creator immediately edited the follow-up video and posted it online.

As soon as it was released, the system gave this video a huge wave of traffic.

[What did I see? I saw Brother Lance!!!]

[Little Brother is still as handsome as ever.]

[Hey, am I the only one paying attention to the video content? Lance is supporting his older sister and even gave her 500,000 yuan as a betrothal gift. Oh my God, he's so popular.]

[This child knows how to repay kindness. Some people become famous and don't even remember their relatives.]

[...]

Lance is already popular himself, and coupled with the automatic promotion by the system, the number of likes for this video skyrocketed.

In the beginning, the comments section was filled with people who surfed the internet quickly and knew who Lance was.

Gradually, more and more people followed the video and found the name "Lance" unfamiliar, so they did a quick search.

They didn't know until they searched - after reading about Lance's story, they felt dazed when they posted the comments.

An eight-year-old prodigy? Or a stock genius?

Moreover, at only eight years old, he was able to self-study high school-level material, and even touched upon university-level content. Even more surprising, he was once contacted by Professor A, who invited him to enroll in their University?

It was too amazing!

For a while, the comments were all praising Lance.

And the number of people searching for Lance also reached a considerable level.

After a few hours, questions began to appear in the comments section.

[Who's Lance? ]

[I'm also puzzled. I can't be bothered to search. I'll ask the omnipotent netizens.]

[Hahaha, so lazy? But I'm lazy too. I hope the netizens can give me an accurate answer. Thank you! (90-degree bow)]

[90-degree bow? You're not sincere at all. Look at me bow 180 degrees.]

[...]

[You guys don't know Lance? 2G surfing, right?]

[Pressing the button to recommend Lance! He's a Child Prodigy, a Child Prodigy!]

[Yes, he's a genius who self-learned high school content at the age of eight and is talented in stocks. Don't ask me why I'm calm, because when I first checked on him, I accidentally spilled water on the keyboard. The new keyboard doesn't allow me to be excited anymore!]

[Hahaha, I'm laughing at this guy.]

[Oh my god, I just checked, Lance, Greatest Of All Time! I'll be your fan from now on.]

In an instant, the trending topics were almost all about Lance.

'Genius youth', 'eight-year-old prodigy', 'stock genius', 'prodigy attending wedding', and 'gambling god repaying favor' had become popular search terms.

The popularity grew rapidly. A day after the video was released, it received more than 10 million likes.

Videos introducing Lance and analyzing his life quickly appeared on the public platform.

All of this confirmed one thing—Lance had become a god!

The online legend was none other than him!

When Lance was evaluated as an online legend by netizens, regular people who have any sort of connection with Lance would wake up smiling in the middle of the night.

But Lance, who was the center of the conversation, was not affected at all.

In the room, after casually browsing through the comments, Lance put down his handphone expressionlessly. There was no ripple in his heart.

It had to be said that he didn't really care if he was popular or not.

What he cared about the most now was how to make money!

Lance began to summarize the recent progress.

First of all, he had made a lot of money from investing in stocks. It was a considerable income.

However, although he made money, Lance realized that the way to earn money by investing in stocks was too slow and very troublesome.

He had to buy it and throw it out. He also had to pay attention to the timing. It was simply exhausting.

Secondly, as for another way to earn money recently…

When Lance thought of this, he heard Helen's voice mixed with a hint of laughter, outside the house.

"What? Really? Those three houses have been classified as school district houses?"

"The price is nearly 40,000 yuan per square meter?"

Lance was thinking about this matter. What a coincidence.

From Helen's words, Lance also knew that the price of the houses had increased.

As expected, Lance did a search and found out that the three houses he'd purchased were now priced at 37,000 yuan.

Because it was classified as a school district house, the price had skyrocketed. Now, many people wanted to buy it at a high price, which increased the price of the house.

Seeing this, Lance's eyes flashed.

"System, is there any room for the price of these houses to increase?"

The system quickly analyzed.

Five seconds later, Lance saw the analysis results.

—No.

"Then sell it now!"

"Lance, eat the meat."

At the dining table, Helen happily picked up some food for Lance.

The food in Lance's bowl was almost piled up into a small mountain.

Fred was also smiling.

It seemed that they all knew about the price increase of the houses.

Swallowing the food in his mouth, Lance took a sip of water and mentioned this matter.

"Dad, Mom, I want to sell all the houses I bought previously."

It was straightforward without any hesitation.

Helen was surprised. She frowned when she saw the seriousness in Lance's eyes.

"Don't you want to keep one house?"

"Actually, just sell two houses. The price of the houses have increased because they've been designated as school district houses. We'll keep one house. It'll be more convenient for school and marriage in the future."

"Baby, you don't know. School district houses are priceless. We have three houses in our hands. I wonder how envious others will be."

Helen began to introduce Lance to the benefits of a school district house, trying to persuade him to keep one.

After all, the houses were bought with Lance's money. Helen wouldn't force him to keep a house, but she still wanted to persuade him.

Lance didn't need to go to school, so the house was convenient for him when he got married.

Helen thought that even if her son was a genius, there were some things he didn't know.

After analyzing the pros and cons, Lance could make a decision.

Lance still shook his head when Helen finished.

"This house is not in the city center."

"I think there will be more opportunities to buy a house in the future. We should choose a better location."

Lance's intention was not here. It was just a school district house, not one in the city center. Of course, he had to sell it and exchange it for cash.

Seeing Lance's obvious refusal, Helen was stunned and subconsciously looked at Fred.

Sensing his gaze, Fred patted his wife's shoulder.

"Our son is right. We have ample funds now. It's not like we have to live there."

"I'll listen to my son!"

Lance and Fred both expressed their attitudes. There was no reason for Helen to insist.

"Alright, then we'll sell them all." The three of them agreed.

After Helen relented, Lance couldn't help but smile.

Now, Fred and Helen dared to let him make major decisions. Even if they had different opinions, they would respect his thoughts. They did not make decisions behind his back just because he was an eight-year-old child.

This was a good sign!
