Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities
Chapter 269 - 182: His Casual Move Is an Unreachable Peak
Honestly, Chen Jincheng’s online image was that of a player, an "Ancestral Master." Even though he composed music and shot dance videos for all those girls, no one had ever seen him dance himself.
But no one ever expected that the first time they saw Chen Jincheng dance, it would be in a situation like this.
Weren’t Chen Jincheng’s moves a little *too* provocative?
That’s right—provocative. It completely subverted everyone’s long-held perception of him.
His die-hard fans, in particular, immediately went wild with excitement:
"Holy shit, I almost didn’t recognize that was Cheng."
"Is this what they mean when they say that when a guy gets provocative, he puts all the women to shame?"
"It might be provocative, but you can tell there’s real substance to Cheng’s dancing."
"True, besides that beautiful instructor, none of the other girls’ dancing looked as good as his."
Indeed, Chen Jincheng’s waist-bending and hip-swiveling moves went viral online. Soon, the high level of skill they required became clear. It wasn’t just that the ten girls couldn’t perform them perfectly; many other dancers started chasing the trend, filming their own videos of the moves.
But they all discovered that the moves weren’t as simple as they looked. After filming their videos, they realized their dancing just didn’t look as good as Chen Jincheng’s. At the very least, they couldn’t execute the waist-bend as perfectly as he did.
This was truly astonishing.
A famous and highly respected female dance instructor even posted a video. It opened with her performing the waist-bend and hip-swivel. While it was clear she performed them exceptionally well, she was still a notch below Chen Jincheng.
Later in the video, she addressed the camera directly. "Honestly, when I first saw this move, I was pretty confident, so I gave it a try. But after dancing it, I realized it’s not simple at all. Setting aside whether you can even execute it properly, there’s still the matter of form. If you can’t capture that aesthetic grace, you’re just making a fool of yourself."
"There’s been a lot of talk about Chen Jincheng online, and we all knew he was a brilliant choreographer. But now it’s clear he’s also a brilliant dancer—an absolute master."
This was basically an endorsement from a professional.
After that, more and more dancers came out with similar endorsements. They had no choice. If you wanted to chase the trend but couldn’t dance as perfectly as Chen Jincheng, the only thing to do was to hype him up.
That way, when your own performance fell short, it wasn’t because you were bad—it was because he was just *that* good.
But regardless of the endorsements from industry professionals, one fact was unavoidable: Chen Jincheng’s dancing was so damn provocative. Was there any man alive who could be more provocative than him?
Naturally, not everyone agreed. When Luo Xiaozhu saw the news, he immediately thought of showing Chen Jincheng up in the dance department. He even decided to cross-dress for it; after all, his provocative performances as a woman were famous across the internet. Two of his videos in that style had garnered over five million likes each.
So, he decided to cross-dress again to perform the waist-bend and hip-swivel moves.
However, after trying to film a take, he cursed aloud, "Fuck..."
He couldn’t do it. His body simply couldn’t achieve the same fluid softness.
’Is that guy even a man? He must be a total sissy.’
He could only curse resentfully in his mind.
Discovering this was incredibly frustrating. ’Am I really helpless against him, even in my own area of expertise?’
In addition to Chen Jincheng’s waist-bend and hip-swivel going viral, Ganjiang University also announced the two dancers he had selected for the *Divination Dance*. Just like that, Li Suwan and her partner were noticed by countless netizens and started gaining followers.
This was especially true for Li Suwan.
When charm, maturity, a sexy figure, and a beautiful face all came together in one woman, she was simply radiant—the kind of woman who could attract inheritors of Wei Wu’s Legacy.
Tiao Yin had an "event promotion" algorithm. When a topic went viral, the platform would create a dedicated traffic pool for it. Anyone who then posted a related video to chase the trend, even if they just used a relevant title, would be detected by the system and given a boost of traffic.
These related videos would then compete with each other for even more traffic.
So, when a store clerk filmed Chen Jincheng taking Li Suwan to buy a dance costume and uploaded the clip, it instantly gained a ton of traffic. The video showed her in a gorgeous, flowing Hanfu and let everyone know that Chen Jincheng was out shopping for costumes with his two chosen dancers.
In that flowing Hanfu, Li Suwan looked as charming and alluring as an imperial consort. This brought her another wave of traffic and, naturally, made people even more eager to see her perform the *Divination Dance*.
The costume alone was enough to build immense anticipation.
At the same time, many people’s feeds were showing Xiaoju’s outfit video—the one that had first activated her Innate Widow Saint Body Attribute.
Her cold and aloof widow’s aura was simply out of this world.
As the girl Chen Jincheng had just hit on at the airport that day, she was already getting a lot of attention. Coupled with the guaranteed two-million-plus likes from the Internet Celebrity Debut Card, her video absolutely exploded in popularity. Its final like count was sure to far surpass two million.
Moreover, her video’s title was, ’He said a video filmed this way was guaranteed two million likes.’ Everyone knew the ’He’ could only be Chen Jincheng.
Crucially, judging by its growth trajectory, hitting two million likes was a sure thing.
The title instantly conveyed the sheer swagger Chen Jincheng possessed when it came to making videos for women.
Around the same time, the video that Li Suwan and her partner had filmed of Chen Jincheng styling Xiaoju also surfaced, revealing to everyone just how Xiaoju’s viral video had been created.
