Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore
Chapter 742: The Righteous Novice: "Following the Crowd" (AI Animation)
The next day, the internet was still bustling.
【Rational discussion, can the matter of Emperor Chen's genuine work not be blamed on the Film Crew of "the imperial cause" this time? Why is Xiao He's name being dragged into everything online?】
【I'm also very confused. Who understands that when I opened my phone and saw this trending search, my heart almost stopped for a moment! I really thought it was my Xiao He who burned the genuine work; it scared me to death.】
【But it is indeed a pity. Originally, there were very few genuine works of Emperor Chen remaining in the world, and one less is one less burned.】
【So, can anyone tell me what exactly happened with Emperor Chen's genuine work? I heard it was burned last week. Haven't the Police investigated the situation yet?】
【Hope for a ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ thorough investigation.】
【Hehe, let's put it this way, this matter has long been known in the industry, but many people dare not speak out. Only the so-called "insiders" who are completely unaware of the truth are questioning the Art Center and the Film Crew of "the imperial cause" on the platform.】
【No, what does this mean? Is there an internal scoop on this matter?】
【I suggest netizens check out the video by 'Righteous Little White' on Bilibili. It tells the history of the Yun Family's rise and hints at the truth behind this genuine work incident. If your blood pressure isn't high after watching it, you're penalized to rewatch it.】
【What? Oh my, which industry big shot has stepped in to know all this? They've really stripped the Yun Family bare!】
"Righteous Little White?"
Netizens were still indignantly awaiting the Police's investigation results, hoping to find the person who truly burned the genuine work. Now, seeing someone inexplicably recommending this Blogger's name, many became curious.
"These Bloggers nowadays, they'll seize any traffic! Taking advantage of this time to feast on the Film Crew's human blood steamed buns, huh?!"
Some thought this animation Blogger was taking advantage of the chaos to promote their own work, and were very angry. They immediately rushed to Bilibili, ready to report and attack the account named "Righteous Little White."
However, what they didn't expect was that "Righteous Little White" was a very new account, having only uploaded one video so far. The account's tens of thousands of followers had grown after this video went viral, which was an incredibly terrifying rate of fan growth.
The netizens were surprised. They glanced at the cover and name, realizing it was an AI-produced animated short film.
【"echoing others" (AI animated short film)】
【Synopsis: The story is purely fictional, and any similarities are coincidental. This video was also not released by Righteous Little White. No need to follow, thank you.】
"Hey? This name is quite interesting, but this disclaimer is really perfunctory. A double negative implies an affirmative, explanation is cover up, and cover up is the truth, alright!"
The netizen couldn't help but complain.
"Not released by Righteous Little White? Then it's Evil Little Black?"
Unaware that they had guessed the truth at some point, everyone quickly clicked on the video and began to watch it—
This was a very standard 3D cartoon-style animation. The opening scene was a classical Chinese courtyard in the rain.
Accompanied by the clatter of hooves, a cavalry troop quickly swept across the ground of the capital, splashing a large amount of rainwater.
Both sides of the street were very quiet, with only an old man with a small braid, protecting a small box in his hand, walking bowed to the side.
After an unknown period of walking, he finally stopped, looked up at the tall palace walls in the distance, then turned around and gently pushed open the large door behind him.
The world behind the door was filled with firelight and the sound of people working hard. Several braided workers carefully held porcelain in their hands, bowing slightly to the old man who entered.
Behind him, the large door slowly closed, isolating the sound of the rain outside along with it...

In the morning, when Xiao He groggily woke up, Liu Rulan had already arrived at his door, fully dressed.
"Yesterday, an AI animation called 'Righteous Little White' went viral. Now, public opinion has largely turned, and the Yun Family and Jingyou Entertainment are in a complete mess, frantically trying to debunk rumors, with no chance to target us." Liu Rulan said, a gloating smile still on her face. She looked at the young man in front of her, her tone certain, "That 'Righteous Little White' is you, isn't it? You've worked hard recently."
"I already said, that was done by Righteous Little White. What does it have to do with me?"
Xiao He yawned lazily, his voice carrying a hint of indolence.
"Huh? Look at your dark circles, they're almost hanging down to your cheeks. And you still say you didn't do it?"
Liu Rulan crossed her arms, having already seen through everything.
"How is that possible?"
Xiao He knew he wouldn't have dark circles, but he still touched his handsome face, then walked to the hotel's built-in projector. With a slight swipe on his phone, his eyes finally changed from hazy to sharp, and he said blandly, "But alright, aren't you planning to make a move on the 'the imperial cause' project? As the boss, I should cooperate with you and lend a hand."
Liu Rulan and Song Yuanqi had already discussed how to seize the project of "the imperial cause." However, she never expected that Linghui Entertainment and Jiaxing Entertainment hadn't even started, yet Xiao He, who claimed this matter wasn't his concern, fired the first shot at the Yun Family.
Xiao He worked through the night, using the AI software he previously developed for "Interdimensional Standoff," to create animated videos based on the currently popular AI animated short dramas, incorporating all the information he had gathered over these days, and then uploaded them online.
Well, it can only be said that Xiao He, despite not being a director or screenwriter for so many years in the industry, made his AI animated short films quite impressive. Their exquisite quality even made it difficult for netizens to distinguish whether they were AI or manually animated. Thus, as soon as the short film went online, it instantly exploded overnight, racking up millions of views and spreading across all platforms. Even those who originally knew nothing about the Yun Family and Emperor Chen's genuine works were drawn in.
Thus, the Yun Family's reputation broke through in another, more terrifying way, spreading like a virus to other audiences!
And related video analyses popped up one after another like mushrooms after rain, once again pushing traffic to the animation "echoing others."
On the surface, this animation mainly tells the inspiring story of a royal craftsman from the last feudal dynasty who, after leaving the imperial palace to go overseas, still adhered to his craft, passed it down to his descendants, promoted it abroad, and started from scratch.
This is a tribute to a guardian of Chinese civilization. No matter where they drifted overseas, they still insisted on promoting traditional craftsmanship, never forgetting their original aspirations, remaining patriotic, and eventually, one day, their descendants successfully returned to the country with the will of their elders, reaching the pinnacle of their lives.
—However, was this truly the case?
