(Two in One)_1 “I guess I can be considered as an educator too.”

Lincoln and Little Princess were sitting on the small sofa, with Mavis squeezed between them, all three watching the news program in front of them.

This was an online program produced by “Xiajing Public Technology News”, the main planner was Lincoln’s hardcore fan, a blind reporter named Jim, who regained his vision due to the “Eight Sides Headband”.

However, Lincoln watched this program, not for the flattery, but because the program was indeed well produced.

Jim had organized a series of events after the release of the “Pacific Rim” promotional material, summarizing the Chinese language craze that swept Daxia Country domestically and overseas.

Of course, domestically, it was mainly about “literacy” and “supplementary lessons”.

Overseas, there was a genuine tide of interest in the Chinese language.

Almost overnight, nearly every influential game streamer and video uploader suddenly turned into a Chinese enthusiast, starting to learn Chinese and Chinese characters diligently.

Moreover, in order to catch up with the release of “Pacific Rim,” the learning process became sleep-deprived and even took place during live streaming sessions.

— Cloud Dream didn’t publicly announce the exact release time of the “Pacific Rim” and the Game Cabin, but according to Cloud Dream’s habits, since the promotional material has been launched, the production is nearly finished!

Time was tight, so they had to work hard.

Although many streamers thought this “compulsory learning” was preposterous and did not hesitate to express their dissatisfaction during their live streams.

Especially when they encounter difficulties and get tortured by polyphones and homophonic characters, they would shower cursing words on Cloud Dream and Lincoln.

But scolding is one thing, and learning is another.

Even after the rant, they would pick up the materials and continue studying.

Turner’s fans were shocked to see him quickly wearing thin in just a week, with dark circles appearing under his eyes.

Even then, he was living in Xiajing, with a naturally superb language environment, and his progress had been rapid.

It’s easy to imagine how hard it would be for those streamers overseas.

Therefore, the already bustling Chinatowns everywhere saw an even more exaggerated influx of people, turning into 24-hour operations, with crowds flooding in no matter the time of day.

Nearly everyone, regardless of their skin color, was speaking Chinese.

Even if their pronunciation was awkward and their speech stammered, they insisted on not speaking their mother tongue and persisted with learning Chinese.

Almost all Chinatowns have become natural “Mandarin Corners”.

Daxia overseas students, immigrants, and Chinese people living abroad also found that they had suddenly become the most popular people in school, being approached for conversation all the time, and even receiving small notes during class.

The notes were even written in twisted and crooked Chinese characters!

The craze swept over half of the Earth, which was not an exaggeration at all.

It’s evident that Jim had put considerable effort into this program, with a remarkable amount of fresh, organized content covering more than 20 countries, demonstrating his strength as a seasoned reporter.

Of course, he did not ignore those opposing voices.

Just after Lincoln declared, “I guess I can be considered as an educator too”, the program content turned to those voices of opposition—

The fierce debates and discussions on the European and American Internet were still ongoing, but this did not stop the Chinese language craze from spreading both online and offline.

Some people were even slamming Cloud Dream and Lincoln’s ulterior motives while studying hard in private.

Even among the media people trying to spin conspiracy theories about Cloud Dream, the responsible ones had no choice but to learn Chinese—they hoped to enter “Pacific Rim” to gain first-hand experience and find evidence to support their views.

This craze even impacted the ongoing and escalating protest wave in the United Kingdom, which had persisted for several months.

Of course, this might be a coincidence, or a well-timed “stepping stone”.

Because the protests and strikes in the United Kingdom have already achieved a preliminary victory—if you regard the prime minister being forced to step down as a victory.

Next, it will depend on whether the newly-appointed female prime minister can satisfy their demands for “increasing remuneration”, “improving working conditions”, and “cancelling delaying retirement”.

The demand to “allow Cloud Dream to set up a server center in the UK”, which initially triggered the protest, has now been relegated to a rather minor position.

Lincoln was not surprised by this.

After all, in the face of “material benefits” and “living conditions,” “entertainment” can and should be secondary.

In short, the wave of protests and strikes eased a little, players went to learn Chinese, workers turned their attention back to their jobs, and the media temporarily stopped reporting strike news, turning to mock the President of America.

The female prime minister also got a window to clean up the mess.

Everyone had something to do, and social tensions were temporarily eased.

— This was by no means an overstatement of Cloud Dream’s influence.

In the United Kingdom, the number of Cloud Dream’s users was nearing ten million, exceeding one-seventh of the total population.

Out of every seven people, one was a Cloud Dream’s user.

Even if not all of them were game players, one could not ignore Cloud Dream’s potential influence.

This astonishing influence was the reason why the government was reluctant to greenlight Cloud Dream, as it would further expand Cloud Dream’s influence.

Which was the complete opposite in the UK.

Under the support of the [Foundation for Freedom of Life and Democratic Rights], America, which had been maintaining high-intensity protests, did not ease because of the emergence of the “Pacific Rim,” but instead triggered an even bigger storm.
