Chapter 317: Who Gave You the Courage to Talk Bad About Me in Front of Me?
Chu Luo asked in English:
“When was the word ‘celebrity’ coined?”
“Where did the opera originate from?”
Chu Luo asked two consecutive questions that left the reporters dumbfounded.
The students standing at the side giggled.
A reporter felt that Chu Luo was deliberately making things difficult for them and was displeased. “What has this got to do with us entering Imperial University to film?”
Chu Luo nodded. “If I say it’s related, you will definitely say that Imperial University is bullying you for being uneducated. Let’s just say it’s unrelated, then.”
The reporter’s face turned red. “You…”
Chu Luo had an innocent look on her face. “Am I wrong? As entertainment reporters, you can’t even answer such a simple question. How are you different from those lousy gossip websites?”
Chu Luo’s words rendered them speechless. They definitely wouldn’t admit that they were from some crappy gossip website, but they weren’t willing to leave just like that.
A reporter said in a displeased tone, “We’re in the entertainment business, not the art business. The questions you ask are all in the art category. I think you’re deliberately making things difficult for us!”
“You guys are in the entertainment business?” Chu Luo looked surprised. In the next second, her expression darkened and a sharp aura emanated from her body. “Firstly, we don’t have any celebrities here, and secondly, we don’t have any gossip. Then what are you guys doing here?”
The others voiced their agreement.
Seeing that Chu Luo and the others weren’t going to compromise, the reporters shouted in dissatisfaction, “We’re international friends! Is this how Imperial University treats international friends?!”
“To put it simply, international friends are foreign friends. We are very friendly towards foreign friends, but we don’t welcome people who make up stories out of nothing. I just want to ask, as entertainment reporters, why are you filming our competition? Don’t tell me you want to report who’s good-looking and suited to be a celebrity?
Chu Luo’s straightforwardness made many people laugh secretly.
The reporters felt like they had lost face and smoke was rising from their heads.
They started speaking in Korean.
“I didn’t expect the students of Imperial University to have such manners. We’re entering their school to film because we want to give them face, but they don’t appreciate it.”
“This woman is so beautiful. Why is she still studying? She can just enter the entertainment industry and find a rich man…”
Swoosh~
A silver needle went straight through the skin on the neck of the person who spoke. If it was slightly further in the middle, it would have struck him in the throat.
Chu Luo’s action stunned the reporters and photographers.
The others also fell silent.
After a few seconds, the reporter whose skin had been pierced by the silver needle changed his expression and screamed in fear, “Ahhh…”
“Shut up!”
Chu Luo’s voice had an imposing aura.
That person immediately shut up.
Chu Luo said in Korean, “Who gave you the courage to speak ill of me in front of me?
“You’re just foreign entertainment reporters, yet you want to come to Imperial University and be impudent? Is this your standard?
“Also… I’m not only beautiful, but you also can’t afford to offend me.”
As she spoke, she pointed at her head. Her confidence made it impossible to refute her.
Chu Luo suddenly asked, “Who recorded the entire process?”
A few students quickly raised their hands.
“I did.”
“I did.”
“I did too!”
…
“Very good. In order to let everyone know that it’s not our Imperial University students who were unfriendly to foreign friends, immediately upload this video to the international network.”
The bunch of them immediately did as instructed.
The reporters finally came back to their senses.
Someone shouted with a dark face, “You’re just a few students. Do you think you can do anything to us? Let me tell you, XX Entertainment Company is not someone that many people can afford to provoke in Korea. You better not regret it.”
The bunch of them left in exasperation.
Looking at the cars leave, Nangong Yi looked at Chu Luo. “Junior, what do you plan to do? These kinds of entertainment gossip reporters will definitely twist the truth when they go back. When the time comes, they will definitely badmouth Imperial University to ruin its reputation.”
When the others heard this, they looked worried.
“Hmph!” Chu Luo said in a low voice. “That depends on whether they have the ability.”
“Junior, what do you want to do?”
Chu Luo didn’t answer him. She took out her phone and called Wang Mingtao.
The moment Wang Mingtao picked up the call, she said, “Get Roundy to the school gate immediately.”
Chu Luo didn’t leave. Everyone waited by the school gate.
Many people quickly browsed the Internet.
“Chu Luo, the video has been sent. It’s just that it didn’t attract much attention on the international network.”
Chu Luo looked calm. “No hurry.”
A few minutes later, the sound of mechanical wings came from above everyone.
Other than Chu Luo, everyone subconsciously looked up.
What they saw made their jaws drop and their eyes widen in shock.
Someone clicked his tongue and said, “That… is Chu Luo’s robot, right?”
“With such a round figure, it’s obvious.”
“Why do I find this robot so handsome today?”
“I think so too. How many functions does this robot have that we haven’t seen before?”
The current Roundy’s reputation could be said to be on par with that of Chu Luo. Many people had posted about Roundy on the BBS, and Roundy had long become an internet sensation.
Before Roundy landed, the people standing near Chu Luo automatically retreated.
Roundy landed in front of Chu Luo and retracted his wings. “Mistress, I’m here.”
“Roundy, pull up the operation panel.”
Roundy immediately opened the operation panel.
Then, everyone saw Chu Luo’s hands working on the operation panel on Roundy’s back.
Nangong Yi took out his phone and quickly opened the Internet.
The title of Chu Luo’s post was: “Korea’s entertainment gossip reporters dare to cause trouble at Imperial University. Do they think Imperial University is a pushover!?”
The video was released in that post.
Nangong Yi glanced at Chu Luo with a complicated expression, thinking to himself, ‘Is this really a good idea?’
When he saw that the popularity of this thread was rising rapidly and was gradually becoming a hot topic, he quickly clicked on and forwarded it.
Not only Nangong Yi, but the students of Imperial University also quickly learned of this matter.
At this moment, no matter where they were, they clicked on the repost at the same time.
At this moment, a classmate exclaimed, “Imperial University’s official website has reposted Chu Luo’s thread. It says that it wants those reporters from Korea to come out and apologize to Imperial University and to Chu Luo.”
Then…
“The Imperial University College of Medicine reposted Chu Luo’s post.”
“The Imperial University College of Business reposted Chu Luo’s post.”
“The Imperial University College of Foreign Languages reposted Chu Luo’s post.”
…
Chu Luo was still operating rapidly on Roundy’s operation panel.
Soon, this post was ranked first.
Instantly, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and millions of comments appeared.
“This entertainment media company from Korea has indeed gone overboard. As a world-famous school, Imperial University is indeed not a place that just any media outlet (especially entertainment gossip media) can enter.”
“Am I the only one who deliberately searched online after hearing Chu Luo asked those two questions?”
“It’s indeed Chu Luo. She’s arrogant and beautiful. Goddess, please accept my knees.”
“It’s just a small matter, yet this Chu Luo caused such a huge commotion. Is Imperial University deliberately trying to increase the popularity of their school?”
“Those trolls, didn’t you see the words that were translated? Chu Luo got insulted by those words simply because she is beautiful. Talk is cheap since it didn’t happen to you, right?”
“I strongly request Korea’s XX Entertainment media company to come out and apologize.”
…
The power of international opinion was strong. The matter quickly fermented, especially the words spoken by the two reporters in Korean.
An hour later, Chu Luo received a call from the dean.
Chu Luo brought Roundy and Nangong Yi to the dean’s office.
At this moment, there were a few important school heads waiting in the dean’s office.
They were discussing this matter.
The moment Chu Luo entered, they stopped and looked at her.
The dean looked at her kindly. “Chu Luo, you did well today, but many people think that you didn’t have to make such a big deal out of it. What do you think?”
Chu Luo blinked her big, dazzling eyes and replied, “In the future, our Imperial University will be even more famous. When the time comes, there will definitely be many reporters from both domestically and abroad. I’m just killing the chicken to warn the monkeys. We should raise our standards for reporters who are allowed into Imperial University.”
The dean and school heads nodded in their hearts.
One of the school heads smiled and deliberately asked, “Why would Chu Luo say that our Imperial University will become more famous in the future? Isn’t our Imperial University already famous now?”
“Famous, but not internationally.”
Chu Luo didn’t beat around the bush. “Previously, I checked. Although Imperial University is ranked among the top ten world-class universities, our Imperial University doesn’t have any special masterpieces. This makes the other nine universities more or less disdainful when they talk about our Imperial University. Now that I’m studying here, I won’t allow anyone to look down on Imperial University.”
The heads and Nangong Yi’s hearts skipped a beat.
Chu Luo’s words sounded too arrogant and conceited, but they subconsciously believed that she could really keep her word.
The group of them chatted for a while more. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The dean’s assistant pushed open the door and said to the dean excitedly, “Dean, just now, a few educational media outlets from abroad called to request for the broadcast rights for the painting competition tomorrow.”
