Chapter 29: Nuclear Tourism
Generally, they say that topics on the Hypernet last for a week.
No matter how big a topic that could burn everywhere, it ant that after roughly a week it would wither and ultimately disappear.
This wasn’t an exception even for the hack controversy that heated up all Reverse Planet communities.
Now, a week after the clarification broadcast.
The number of hack controversy-related posts going up to trending or featured posts had drastically decreased. It had reached a level where it was only occasionally ntioned.
If sothing was added as firewood afterward—for example, starting a personal broadcast—the topic might have lasted longer, but since that didn’t happen, it was a natural result.
Thus, this hack controversy too seed to end leaving only one celebrity called ‘Hackphysical,’ like other controversies.
☉ So what’s Hackphysical doing now?
No talk of appearing on personal broadcasts
Looking at PVP match history, doesn’t seem to ga much either
Don’t tell
it’s really over like this??
—Probably? Seeing how he cut it off cleanly even during clarification broadcast, seems he has no particular interest in personal broadcasts
└Author: Why? Broadcasting would be a hit
└How would I know; He’s saying he won’t;;
Nevertheless, so people desperately searched for news of Hackphysical’s personal broadcast.
Actually, it wasn’t just ‘so’ level. Posts asking about Hackphysical’s current status or future whereabouts went up several tis a day regardless of community.
It was proof that what Hackphysical, Baek Woohyun, showed in just two broadcasts was that shocking.
From before, broadcasts of Reverse Planet amateur masters had considerable demand.
Because they were preferred in that they were relatively easier to access than pros and Q&A was easy. Unlike pros where build-related questions were completely prohibited.
Anyway, if even regular amateur master broadcasts had considerable demand, what if it was a master misunderstood as a hacker from just two broadcasts?
☉ Praying for Hackphysical broadcast Day 3
Please broadcast… Broadcast and release tips…
—Just watch Astra’s broadcast fuck;
└Author: Compare Astra to Hackphysical??
└???? This crossed the line
└It’s not that Astra is bad, but still Hackphysical is just different class????
There wasn’t even a reason to consider demand.
Because there was no supply in the first place.
Because all the truly skilled amateur masters went pro—this isn’t saying the sa thing.
Just, literally there was no supply.
Of a monster with skill enough to be misunderstood as a hack.
Perhaps because of that, curiosity about Baek Woohyun continued to deepen even after the hack controversy topic died down.
If nothing else, only ‘Hackphysical’s’ vitality as a topic didn’t die out, but rather kept being ntioned and revived.
Strictly speaking, there were many reasons for that.
Because research on [Perfect Being] was conducted, the No Assist No Guns Challenge restarted, and even the Advanced Combat Bot Challenge with just one Core Elent overlapped.
Especially the fact that two challenges beca hits simultaneously was biggest.
Because those who challenged what’s called the ‘Hackphysical’ challenge, bundling both together, kept ntioning that Hackphysical, Baek Woohyun, was truly insane.
It ans that as it was a challenge anyone could easily attempt, many tried and failed, causing attention to focus on Baek Woohyun, who could be called the source.
?? Pros failing Hackphysical challenge in succession
No Assist No Guns Challenge naturally failed
Pro parrots saying it can’t be done by pros scatter!
Just rember
Hackphysical’s physicality is inhuman level ????
—Obviously incomparable fuck???? At that point it’s just faith ????
└There are more pro fanatics than expected????????
└If pros could do it, why would they praise Hackphysical
└Especially Battler zealots are so disgusting
—Hackphysical who accomplished what even pros all fail is
└Pros who challenged all said it too, how on earth did he do this
└The hack controversy didn’t happen for nothing????
The flow intensified even more as pro players appeared among those who challenged and failed.
Moreover, pro players unanimously said things like ‘It’s surprising that soone who can do this exists’ or ‘If you want to join a pro team, please contact us!’
There were also frequent stories about so pro team’s front office actually moving.
When demand for Baek Woohyun had accumulated trendously like that.
☉ Breaking) Hackphysical appearing on personal broadcast!
One post went up on the community.
Containing content that Baek Woohyun would appear on a personal broadcast.
What greeted those who entered thinking it was a typical fishing post was, surprisingly, proper content.
?? Breaking) Hackphysical appearing on personal broadcast!
‘Nuclear Tourism’ content will arrive
Cast: Hackphysical / Cha Seongcheol / Jeong Nayeon
So it says ????
Cha Seongcheol is the Struggle League comntator you guys know right
Jeong Nayeon seems like soone who does personal broadcasts but dunno who
—Why is this real
—Content na fuck????????
└Nuclear Tourism because Hackphysical????????
└Nevada, USA cos to mind…
└What’s that, otaku
└Don’t know Nevada nuclear test tourism??
—Praying for broadcast success!
└Acting like you did it for days ????
└I did it for 3 days you fucker!
—Jeong Nayeon does personal broadcasts, gets 1~200 listeners ????
└Why that small-tir when even 3k-tier Kang Soyul;
└Well I don’t know
└Why don’t you know
└Well… because I don’t know…
Hackphysical Baek Woohyun.
Struggle League comntator Cha Seongcheol.
And small-tir Jeong Nayeon.
The ‘Nuclear Tourism’ content announced to proceed with three people who had no commonality caused considerable repercussions in various Reverse Planet communities.
It was natural since it was as if declaring to appear on a personal broadcast, moreover with properly prepared content, amid already skyrocketing interest in Hackphysical day by day.
So with twisted dispositions showed reactions saying they knew it about Baek Woohyun’s broadcast appearance.
Saying that since people praised Hackphysical, he ultimately decided to appear on personal broadcasts to earn money using that fa.
However, such people’s claims didn’t particularly gain resonance, and the reason was simple.
?? Why the logic of those bashing Hackphysical is funny
They say appearing on personal broadcast to earn money, but appearing on Kang Soyul’s broadcast would be way better for that
3,000 vs 100 people, what more needs saying
Even adding Cha Seongcheol’s viewers is 1,300 ????
—Better better better better
└Why can’t better work?
—This is right, if Hackphysical was gonna broadcast for money, he’d just guest on Kang Soyul’s broadcast
└????????
└Money-crazed parrots deserve punches to the philtrum~
└Don’t know why they treat soone earning money with their own ability as money-crazed in the first place????
—Even forced hate can’t be done properly if intelligence drops????
└Obviously bastards who did hack parrot shit are fuming while forcing hate
Because Baek Woohyun had already abandoned Kang Soyul’s personal broadcast boasting 3,000 viewers.
If he truly wanted to earn money through fa, appearing as a guest on Kang Soyul’s broadcast would be better. He’d actually received similar proposals from Kang Soyul during broadcasts.
At the point of rejecting that and choosing so small-tir—according to sowhat harsh expression—broadcaster, he couldn’t be called ‘money-crazed.’
Because being called money-crazed yet deliberately choosing the side with less revenue didn’t make sense.
However, even those defending Hackphysical couldn’t explain why he chose Jeong Nayeon and Cha Seongcheol.
Why did he pick broadcasters at a combined 1,300 level while leaving dium-sized enterprise-level broadcaster Kang Soyul with average 3,000 viewers?
Of course, he’d simply chosen a broadcast that accommodated his convenience, but to others, this was a choice that couldn’t be understood at all.
As puzzlent accumulated, curiosity also grew, and this imdiately changed into interest toward Nuclear Tourism content.
Public opinion ford to at least watch what they’d do.
It was exactly the result Jeong Nayeon had hoped for.
***
Turning back ti sowhat.
Shortly before the ‘Nuclear Tourism’ content announcent went up as a trending post on communities.
“Huu—”
Having successfully completed negotiations with Baek Woohyun, Jeong Nayeon moved without rest. Because she had to do so to surge forward keeping the buzz alive.
She judged that now when the hack controversy was hot was the period when she could best utilize Baek Woohyun’s value, and intended absolutely not to miss this ti.
Of course, unlike expectations, interest in Hackphysical grew even more as ti passed but… she couldn’t foresee that much.
Anyway, her movents to not miss this mont were very swift.
She sent a proposal email to the first-priority person among cast candidates imdiately after parting with Baek Woohyun, and even set an appointnt as soon as the other party accepted.
Even that was the very next day.
It was a passage showing how much she rushed.
‘Well, this is thanks to the other party understanding we need to quickly continue before the buzz dies.’
Waiting briefly in the virtual reality waiting room.
Jeong Nayeon, who pressed accept on the access request ssage, rose from her seat. It was to greet the person who would enter.
And soon one person opened the door appearing from thin air and entered the waiting room. He was a man who seed just in his mid-thirties.
He with impressive pupils sparkling with interest saw Jeong Nayeon and imdiately offered greetings.
“Hello! You’re Jeong Nayeon, right? Nice to et you. I’m Cha Seongcheol.”
“Yes, Cha Seongcheol. I’m Jeong Nayeon.”
The man, Cha Seongcheol, smiled and sat down.
Likewise, as Jeong Nayeon also sat, he opened his mouth as if he’d been waiting.
“I have quite a straightforward personality, so I’ll get right to the point. Is that okay?”
“Yes, it’s fine.”
“I read the proposal Jeong Nayeon sent well. I’m thinking positively. However, for this proposal to happen, you must have first talked with Hackphysical, how is that part?”
Cha Seongcheol’s doubt was extrely reasonable.
Because outwardly in a situation where Jeong Nayeon and Hackphysical had no relationship, she’d sent a proposal asking wouldn’t the three proceed with broadcast content.
Rather, if Kang Soyul had sent the proposal, he would have accepted without even having this eting. Anyway, the two had even broadcast together.
“Of course, I’ve already talked with Woohyun, ah. Hackphysical too first. I sent the proposal first.”
“Were you acquainted from before…?”
“Yes. We’re friends.”
“Aha.”
Then it made sense that she arranged content with Hackphysical who disappeared without a trace after the clarification broadcast.
Because nothing is a stronger weapon than acquaintance.
There’s also the saying ‘school ties, regional ties, blood ties above all,’ isn’t there?
“If you’ve already finished talking with Hackphysical too, then I have no reason to hesitate either. Let’s imdiately set a date and proceed with advance notice.”
It was a refreshing acceptance.
Enough to briefly fluster even Jeong Nayeon, who had been thinking to even connect a phone call to prove acquaintance with Baek Woohyun if need be.
Watching Cha Seongcheol who said he was fine anyti so let’s set a schedule first, Jeong Nayeon asked.
“Don’t you need to verify directly?”
“Why bother verifying? If it’s a lie anyway, won’t it all be revealed later? Because there can’t be anyone who can imitate Hackphysical’s physicality.”
Cha Seongcheol shrugged and continued.
“Besides, there’s no particular reason for you to lie to , Jeong Nayeon.”
Not only was there no reason for her to try deceiving him, but if it turned out to be a lie, it would be Jeong Nayeon herself who’d close her broadcast.
At Cha Seongcheol’s explanation, Jeong Nayeon also couldn’t help but nod. Because it was certainly as he said.
Afterward, the two had various conversations about the content the three would proceed with.
Basically from schedule coordination, to how to proceed, though it was sowhat drinking kimchi soup, even about if the content beca a hit.
Naturally, talk also ca up about what to na the content.
“The content’s na is very important. It’s essentially like a person’s first impression.”
Cha Seongcheol spoke in a serious tone.
“It must concisely contain the content’s substance while being witty. That way, won’t people want to watch just seeing the na?”
“That’s right.”
“In that sense, how about Nuclear Tourism?”
“……Yes?”
“Nuclear Tourism. Isn’t it good?”
“Nu…clear…Tourism…?”
“It’s a format watching Hackphysical, so isn’t there no better na than this as the content na!”
“Uh—”
“Mmm, if it really won’t work, another na related to nuclear—”
“Nuclear Tourism! Let’s go with Nuclear Tourism!”
The ‘Nuclear Tourism’ content began like this.
