Short Videos Reach the Ancient World, and the Ancients Say, "That's It?"

Yi Yang downloaded a short-video app, and the videos he watched on his phone began livestreaming to ancient times.

He thought the ancients would worship the modern splendor shown in the videos as though it were divine.

But instead, they all said, "Huh. That's it? We've already done all this."

Watching a Western brain surgery:

Hua Tuo: "Huh, that's it? When I operate on a brain, I open up the whole skull. What's the point of making just a tiny incision?"

Watching a beautiful influencer dance:

Emperor Wu of Han: "Why do all their faces look exactly the same? They're all alike, with no distinctive features. You call these women beautiful?"

Watching a dance troupe earning 80 million a year:

Cao Mengde: "Hey, I really like this one."
