Chapter 043: Charles Doesn't Want to Be Famous
"Charles, TikTok is nothing compared to how fast you are blowing up on YouTube. If you don't believe me, go check it out yourself!"
Charles, hearing this, quickly turned on his computer, and logged into YouTube.
He immediately noticed a video that was trending on the platform, and it seemed to be about him.
The video was posted by a popular content creator with millions of followers.
This person was named: The Handsome Guy.
Charles opened the video, and it was clearly edited.
It showed Charles running from the starting line to the finish line.
The video also had a timer overlay at the top.
The timer was very clear, providing a clear comparison between the time and Charles's entire run.
In the end, the time stopped at 9.31 seconds, and then the frame froze.
"Hello everyone, I'm your host, The Handsome Guy. Even though I'm very handsome, please don't fall in love with me!
Alright, back to the topic at hand.
In today's video, I'll be analyzing the most incredible amateur athlete of this episode!
We don't know this athlete's name yet, so let's call him 'Running Man' for now!
Why call him Running Man? Because he runs really fast.
Moreover, he might be the next person to break the world sprint record.
Don't think I'm exaggerating.
I didn't speed up the video at all.
According to insiders, the race in the video was a selection event for professional national athletes from a university track team.
The competition level was quite high.
The slowest runner in that race completed 100 meters in under 12 seconds.
And the Running Man in the video wasn't wearing professional athletic gear, hadn't done any warm-up exercises, and was wearing the most ordinary shoes, probably costing just ten dollars a pair.
This ordinary young man suddenly dashed onto the track.
He proved with his ability just how awesome he really is!
From the video, you can see that the moment the coach fired the starting gun, the other athletes took off like cheetahs.
But Running Man was fourteen or sixteen feet behind them.
Despite being sixteen feet behind, he overtook all the track athletes at an incredible speed.
The last-place runner was even thirty three feet behind him.
How terrifyingly fast is that?
Through my detailed editing analysis and speed assessment, I estimated his 100-meter time to be 9.31 seconds.
Although it might not be completely accurate, it's pretty close!
The world's fastest man once set a world record with a time of 9.58 seconds, a record unbroken for over a decade.
But our Running Man clocked in at 9.31 seconds.
Yes, you read that right, and there's no need to doubt it!
I can't even find the words to express my shock!
Only 'terrifying' can describe my feelings at this moment."
The Handsome Guy explained in an exaggerated tone, analyzing and comparing the video at the same time.
Charles' ten-second running video was studied and replayed over a dozen times.
The video went viral!
It really went viral!
Not only could you see it on TikTok, but it was also on YouTube's homepage, and even in the news.
It was insanely viral!
Charles was a bit confused.
He wondered if this Handsome Guy had something against him.
He didn't want to go viral.
'Is the Handsome Guy out of his mind?'
'There are so many wannabe influencers you could recommend, why recommend me?'
