Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

In the end, Xiao He simply requisitioned Huang Meng’s electric scooter and rode it back by himself.

On the contrary, Huang Meng and his group followed behind in their nanny van.

—This is utterly upside down!

Well, this is also to let the air out and effectively remove the smell.

When Xiao He returned to the hotel where the film crew was staying, he looked down and smelled himself again, and the unpleasant odor had disappeared.

Xiao Chen, who had just gotten out of the car, also came over, took a few deep breaths near Xiao He, and then nodded and said, ”Brother Xiao, the smell is gone!”

Xiao He finally breathed a sigh of relief: ”That’s great.”

”But speaking of which, Sister Liu is really efficient! It hasn’t been long since the public outcry broke out, right? How come she managed to suppress all those monsters and demons so quickly?”

Xiao He looked around and found that there weren’t many people left to guard the area, which meant that the area had probably already been cleared out.

Otherwise, he would probably be filmed riding his electric scooter again, and who knows how the marketing accounts would interpret it.

Xiao He admitted that he still had some idol image to maintain at this moment.

After all, the fact that he was kicked off the bus by others because he smelled so bad... is something he’s too embarrassed to even clarify.

”Hmph, that’s all because of you, kid. As soon as the news of going up the mountain came out, everyone was instantly drawn to this side like they were being pulled by a powerful magnet.”

Liu Rulan crossed her arms and said irritably.

”But it took me a lot of effort to deal with them.”

”Sister Liu, you’ve worked so hard. Sister Liu, you’ve worked so hard.”

Xiao He thanked him repeatedly, then looked at Huang Meng and the others.

He tucked the somewhat ugly yellow safety helmet from the electric scooter under his arm and pulled out his phone: ”Your helmet must be smelly by now, I’ll just buy it. As for the compensation for the electric scooter, I’ll pay you in full...”

”No need, no need, Brother Xiao, I gave it to you willingly. Besides, we hitched a ride with you, so it’s not a loss for us overall.”

Huang Meng quickly waved his hand, not even taking his eyes off the ugly yellow helmet: ”We don’t mind the helmet! Brother Xiao, rather than throwing it away, you might as well keep it for us!”

Xiao He was shocked, looking at Huang Meng with a look of utter disbelief: ”You have this kind of fetish?!”

He still wants that helmet that reeks of corpses?

Even if you can wash it and use it, it’s still something you wear on your head, so who wouldn’t have some doubts?

Liu Rulan sneered, seeing through Huang Meng’s little scheme at a glance: ”This guy has his eye on the helmet you used and plans to resell it to your fans.”

She turned her head and said directly to Lao Qi, ”Lao Qi, please take the electric bike and helmet away together and find a shop to clean them, even if you have to pay extra. Xiao Chen, you pay. Xiao He, stay away from that guy. If you scan the payment for him, he might be able to sell the screenshot of the payment.”

Xiao He: ”...”

Huang Meng, whose prediction had been completely accurate: ”...”

The apprentice, who never expected Brother Huang to be so shameless, asked, ”So, it can be like this?”

No wonder he’s called Brother Huang! With such a shameless attitude, it’s no wonder he’s been able to build such a large and powerful business.

”Don’t act innocent after getting a good deal. It’s getting late. Go back to where you came from.”

Liu Rulan crossed her arms and gave a cold warning.

Huang Meng didn’t feel embarrassed at all about being exposed. He greeted her with a smile, then grabbed the newcomer and ran off.

Watching the two generations of photographers run away, Xiao He shook his head helplessly: ”I’ve figured it out. As long as you give this guy a nice look, he’ll immediately take advantage of you.”

They fought and lost repeatedly, but never gave up.

Xiao He was truly speechless about this kind of person.

“This is the only way to communicate with them,” Liu Rulan sneered. “If you have a good temper when dealing with these kinds of paparazzi, they can come to your doorstep the next day and take pictures right in your face.”

What’s most amazing is that even if they had a conflict last time, they can still greet each other with a smile the next time they meet.

That’s a skill in itself.

Xiao He finally looked at Zuo Cheng, who had been silently following them.

Zuo Cheng was someone Liu Rulan met on the road. After discovering that Liu Rulan was Xiao He’s manager, he said he had something to discuss with Xiao He and hoped to meet with him alone.

Liu Rulan noticed that Zuo Cheng wanted to talk about matters related to Heguang Technology and Fusheng Technology, so after thinking for a moment, she decisively agreed to let Zuo Cheng go up the mountain with her.

So, he didn’t rush to talk to Xiao He along the way, but instead silently followed him on his motorcycle.

Until now.

”Let’s go. Is there something you want to tell me?”

Xiao He waved to Liu Rulan and took Zuo Cheng to his hotel room alone, while also wondering, ”We met on the mountain not long ago, didn’t we? Why didn’t you tell me then?”

”Ah, I only discovered this after I came down the mountain.”

Zuo Cheng said somewhat embarrassedly, then took out his phone.

“When I was live streaming on the mountain, I accidentally filmed you, Brother Xiao. Although I turned off the live stream very quickly, some screenshots still circulated. After that, I started receiving some strange messages in my private messages.”

He skillfully logged into his platform account and showed Xiao He several private messages.

【Garbled ID 1: Is Xiao He the person in charge of the development of this mechanical spider technology?】

【Random ID 2: Hello, I’m an enthusiast of unusual mechanical devices. I absolutely love the product you showcased in your livestream. Could you take a few more high-resolution photos and videos for me? Detailed data images of the product would be even better; I can provide them for a fee of 50,000 per image, but the price is negotiable.】

【Random ID 3: I am the purchasing manager of an overseas XXXX Technology Company. After watching your live stream, we are very interested in the products you showcased. Do you have any purchasing channels? You could also help us contact the on-site technical staff, and we will liaise with the company that produces the product. You only need to handle the contacting; we can give you 10% of the profits after the deal is completed.】

...

There are many similar private messages, and most of the accounts are just meaningless gibberish with mixed IP addresses, some from overseas and some from China, but mainly concentrated in certain regions.

On a whim, one might simply think that viewers in the live stream were curious about the product and wanted to contact the blogger for business collaborations and inquiries.

However, some sensitive IP addresses and the content of the inquiries immediately raised Zuo Cheng’s vigilance.

This is just too wrong.

In particular, some of these requests are high-priced and require payment.

Who’s the kind person who would give tens of thousands of yuan for just a photo of a machine?

Surely you can’t have this money in the form of Happy Beans, right?

And then there’s this ”helping to contact technicians” thing. They ask for a phone number, give you a number to connect to, and they’ll give you a huge commission. I bet they’ll just take the contact information and then disappear!

Zuo Cheng is a big blogger after all, and he has encountered many strange and unpredictable people in business collaborations over the years, let alone such a sensitive and bizarre group of private messages inviting him to collaborate.

It’s like rubbing people’s intelligence into the ground.

They Chinese people have been exposed to anti-fraud propaganda for years, and when they see these IP addresses and these requirements, all their thoughts instantly disappear.

My mind is clear now.

At the same time, defenses are also maxed out.
