Chapter 348 - 242: Becoming a Ten-Billionaire Starting Today

Chapter 348: Chapter 242: Becoming a Ten-Billionaire Starting Today

’If I couldn’t keep it in check, who knows what it might have turned into.’

Fortunately, up until now, my control had remained rock-solid.

Although there were occasional minor flaws and slip-ups along the way, I definitely hadn’t made any major mistakes.

Now I was thinking...

If I had a net worth of ten billion and ran into someone like Lan Yuzheng again, handling him would surely be a breeze. A piece of cake. Not at all like back then, when I had to rack my brains over it.

"Okay, I’ll wait for you here then. Haha, the real estate agent came over early this morning to bring me breakfast. I’m going to check out 108 with him first. It’s bigger over there; you could probably even turn it into a clubhouse."

Zhang Peng replied quickly after seeing Lin Chu’s message.

’Brother Chu said he was transferring this house to me, but I work in Peng City every day. Coming here would just be for a vacation at most.’

’In a way, it’s definitely still a company asset, just registered under my name.’

’My career is rooted in Peng City. This house over here is like an isolated stone on a Go board.’

Zhang Peng didn’t feel like he was the owner at all.

’If I don’t work in Peng City, I can’t even afford the damn property management fees. Am I supposed to just live here like a hermit?’

Lin Chu: "You work out the design. If the private council needs to use it, just let them. After all, I did promise them before."

...

After dealing with Zhang Peng’s messages, Lin Chu checked the ones from Duan Kun.

His efficiency was, as expected, incredibly high.

The second wave of hype for the scandal had already begun.

He had taken one topic after another and used them for marketing, even dragging Zhou Luan back into the fray.

The main goal was simply to generate topics and buzz.

To be fair, this kind of marketing was rather crude and a bit of a mess. Anyone who wanted to keep the relationships straight had to follow the drama from the very beginning to the very end. Otherwise, they might not understand any of it.

But this drama... it was guaranteed to be huge.

There was more than enough to feast on.

After indulging in the gossip for a little while himself, Lin Chu stopped paying much attention to it.

’Crafting the image of a man with a "less-than-pristine" private life isn’t necessarily a bad thing for me.’

’After all, my private life really was a mess.’

’Now that public opinion was mentally prepared, even if someone exposed me in the future, this served as a sort of preemptive inoculation.’

’There was no risk of my public persona collapsing.’

’It was just like with Principal Wang—him getting a new girlfriend isn’t news. The day he decides to settle down and get married, *that’ll* be big news.’

Besides the scandals related to his private life...

On Hupu and Zhihu, the two platforms with the most male users, Duan Kun had also launched a marketing campaign, but in a completely different style.

This was about last night’s "Lu Dahai incident."

’Since something like that happened on the livestream, it’s only natural to make some noise about it.’

He created a few topics.

—What are your thoughts on people asking for help spreading missing person notices in celebrity livestreams?

—What should you do if you’re traveling and get trapped in Southeast Asia?

—Please Share: Lu Dahai Is Searching for Someone!

’I have to say, Duan Kun’s grasp of public sentiment was quite nuanced. He tailored the approach to the platform, and this style was indeed a perfect fit for those two sites.’

"Damn, the budget was too high. I’m everywhere."

"So annoying."

"I’ve become the very person I used to hate the most."

Seeing his name everywhere, Lin Chu couldn’t help but shake his head and chuckle.

Previously, Lin Chu had despised excessive marketing. He’d never bought anything from an influencer’s livestream, just watching them for entertainment.

But now, it was his turn...

How sweet it is!
