Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 177: Chapter 177: The Arrival of the Heavenly Queen_1

It was a clear morning, as usual.

Xiao Xu, an office worker, yawned as he left his home.

Day after day, repeating yesterday, the monotony of life made him listless and unable to summon any enthusiasm so early in the morning.

He started work early, appearing on the streets at the same time as the pancake stall every day.

Just as Xiao Xu was heading towards the pancake stall, he felt that something was amiss halfway there and glanced to the side.

There, a large shopping center was under construction, claiming to be some new landmark. Recently, several meter-high hoardings had been erected, majestically towering over the site.

But having seen it so many times, it was no longer impressive.

Only the night before, in the late hours, there was light and commotion, it seemed they were changing the hoardings, making a fuss for quite a while.

Xiao Xu was also affected by it and didn’t sleep well.

At that moment.

Xiao Xu took a look. Just one glance, and he was as if struck by lightning, standing there dumbfounded.

On the hoarding, towering six or seven meters high, higher than two floors, was an extremely beautiful woman, smiling sweetly at him, seemingly a fairy descended to earth!

”Wei Moran, ’Mo Ran Time’ national tour concert, ten days from now, debut in Tiannan!”

”Time: August 8th at 20:00, location: Xiangdong Plaza! Ticket sales location...”

Xiao Xu widened his eyes and read the words on the hoarding in a trembling voice.

”Xiao Xu, no spice and no green onions, right?”

The pancake stall’s owner shouted to Xiao Xu from a distance.

That brought him back to reality like a wakeup call.

”I’m not eating!”

Xiao Xu started to run, pulling out his phone as he did so, and making a call, ”Hello, Mr. Li? This is Xiao Xu speaking, yes, I need to take a day off. What? What happened... My second uncle’s mother-in-law passed away, I have to go back! Yes, this time it’s real...”

The pancake stall’s owner was stunned, then turned to look at the towering hoarding featuring the figure, clicking her tongue in admiration, ”This girl is beautiful! Look how she’s got that young man so enchanted, he won’t even eat his meal!”

As more people went to work, to school, and rose early, the hoarding caused a huge stir.

News about Wei Moran and the concert swept over Tiannan!

The new diva was all the rage across the country, and Tiannan was no exception!

In just one morning, dozens of media outlets flocked there, and thousands of fans gathered spontaneously.

As a result, Xiangdong Group urgently mobilized a large number of security personnel to maintain order and requested help from the police.

Countless posts and live streams centered around this hoarding flooded the internet, overwhelming everything else!

Xiangdong Plaza, attracted the frenzied attention of all sorts of media, unparalleled in the spotlight!

In the conference room of Treles Square,

Bai Xiaosheng, along with his managers, was watching a live broadcast of a hot news story, which was about this incident!

The reporter was visibly excited, obviously a fan of Wei Moran.

”I never expected it, I really didn’t, Xiang Dong’s big move! They’ve actually managed to get Wei Moran!” Chen Daya couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, ”Before this, they didn’t contact any media at all, and now it’s the media chasing after them!”

Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

This was in line with his impression of Sun Xiangdong’s style of doing things, making people eager to seek him out.

”Now, our momentum has been completely overshadowed; the media that came to our project a few days ago, they had just reported on us, and not long after, it was replaced by Xiang Dong’s!” Chen Daya said with a strained voice, ”In this aspect, they are too strong, we cannot compete with them!”

”Otherwise, let’s also get a celebrity endorsement,” one of the managers couldn’t help but suggest.

To this suggestion, others scoffed.

”It’s useless, we don’t have that much of a budget, and with only ten days left, there’s not even time to talk to a celebrity!” Chen Daya said, crestfallen, ”Even if we did find someone, who could it be? A second-tier or third-tier star wouldn’t be impressive enough, and an A-lister?”

An A-lister, would they come to a second-tier city like Tiannan, to compete with Wei Moran?

If it was just for an endorsement, it would be utterly pointless.

Chen Daya shook his head, his face devoid of hope.

He wasn’t one to give up easily, but at that moment, he was utterly out of options.

To put it bluntly, even if they could get Master Song Kai himself to endorse the project, could that compare?

Nowadays, celebrities have far more social influence than scholars.

The other managers looked at one another and sighed in resignation; they were out of options as well.

This time, Xiang Dong hadn’t played any dirty tricks; it was an open and fair contest, and they were simply being crushed by sheer strength!

Despite this, everyone still looked hopefully at Bai Xiaosheng, hoping he might have a plan or, at the very least, deliver some encouraging words!

At that time, Vice General Manager Wang Ye had shed all responsibilities and was hiding in his office, coming and going on schedule without caring about anything else, and nobody expected any help from Mr. Wang.

But Bai Xiaosheng was different; he was a master of strategy, having turned defeat into victory and found a way out of no-way situations multiple times. His turnaround of the project a few days ago had been met with applause.

Now, everyone pinned all their hopes on him!

Under everyone’s eager gaze, Bai Xiaosheng remained silent, intently looking at the screen, at the sweet smiling face of Wei Moran.

His focus was spellbound.

”Manager Bai, Manager Bai?” Chen Daya couldn’t help but call out softly twice.

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t actually be a fan of Wei Moran, could he? Chen Daya couldn’t help his internal criticism.

”Oh?” Bai Xiaosheng came back to his senses at Chen Daya’s call and smiled apologetically at everyone.

”Sorry, I was distracted. It’s just that this Wei Moran... looks somewhat familiar. I feel like I’ve seen her somewhere before.”

The managers in the room collectively rolled their eyes inwardly.

Rubbish, we all find her familiar too!

She’s a celebrity, of course, you find her familiar!

Where have you seen her? On TV, that’s where!

Bai Xiaosheng’s brows furrowed slightly. He indeed recognized that face; the more he looked, the more familiar it became, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen it at the moment.

”So, what do we do now?” Chen Daya couldn’t help but ask.

Someone had to make a decision; if not, they could pool their thoughts and come up with some kind of strategy!

Chen Daya looked expectantly at Bai Xiaosheng.

The always-surprising Bai Xiaosheng, what kind of surprise would he provide this time?

Bai Xiaosheng stood up amidst the eager stares, gathered the materials in front of him, and straightened them out neatly on the table.

”Let’s adjourn the meeting.”

Bai Xiaosheng said, ”Carry on as usual, do what needs to be done, and make sure to rest when tired.”

With that, he left gracefully.

He left behind a room full of people with stunned expressions.

This really was a surprise, but not a pleasant one!

”No, Manager Bai, wait a moment.” Chen Daya couldn’t help but chase after him.

But not five minutes later, he returned dejectedly and lifelessly said to everyone, ”Let’s disperse, carry on as usual, do what needs to be done.”

Even Manager Bai was out of ideas? Incredibly?!

The managers were shocked into silence, utterly at a loss.

When the news reached Wang Ye’s ears, he twirled a chess piece in his hand and chuckled softly, ”In the face of absolute power, no one has any strategies to employ, including you, Bai Xiaosheng!”

With that said,

Wang Ye placed the chess piece on the board with a clear, ringing sound.

”This is just the beginning!”
