Chapter 530 Professional Counterfeiting
The old man was riding his bicycle to a distant, cheaper vegetable market to buy vegetables. When he passed an intersection, he was hit by a speeding truck fully loaded with goods and died on the spot.
The most outrageous thing is that the driver of the truck was frightened and had a heart attack, and he died. There was no one to pay the compensation.
Kong Dazhui suddenly lost his source of income. The only thing left at home was the thousand yuan his father had saved in the bedroom drawer and some leftover potatoes and sweet potatoes in the kitchen, which were barely enough to sustain their livelihood for a while.
The matter of making money is imminent.
He created a new account for himself on the short video platform.
It is unclear whether it was out of vanity or to attract attention, but he gave himself a high-sounding name "Kong Yanchen" and created a persona of a rich second-generation.
However, he also knew that he did not have the conditions to maintain this personality.
The images of other rich second-generations are of driving luxury cars, playing golf, attending various dinner parties, and going to bars every night. It is impossible for him, who can't even afford to eat, to take these pictures.
So the title "bankrupt and destitute" was added before the term "rich second generation".
Since I don’t have any talent or strengths, I can only do some shameless things to attract traffic when I’m starting my account.
He can't do what others can do, so he does things that others can't do.
For example, livestreaming eating shit, chewing raw bugs, running and dancing naked in a shopping street...
Although he failed to become a big internet celebrity, he disgusted some people who were dissatisfied with him and dug out his real information, which became a hot topic in a strange way.
After being mocked by the entire network, Kong Dazhun did not feel ashamed of anything. Instead, he changed his name from "Rich Second Generation Kong Yanchen" to "Kong Dazhun who has been on the hot search list."
Although the popularity only lasted for two or three days, it attracted a lot of fans. In an era where traffic is king, the account was a success.
He even took an advertisement for selling counterfeit and inferior toothpaste.
The ad in the video says:
"Why do I dare to eat shit? Because I use xx toothpaste! It leaves no traces on the shit, xx toothpaste is awesome!"
The hot searches about Kong Dazhui coincidentally overshadowed the accident at Annan's branch company. While Annan was enjoying the show, he also followed this big brother.
Of course, I never looked at him again.
When Annan saw him again, this big brother had already entered a new track and changed his personality.
The video content has also become much more interesting, with Annan being directly controlled for 30 seconds.
The name "Kong Dazhui who was on the hot search" has become "Professional counterfeit fighter Kong Dazhui".
But his anti-counterfeiting is not like the common people's exposure of fake and inferior products. Instead, he specifically fights fake horror legends, promotes atheism, and eliminates feudal superstition.
The video that Annan saw was of him challenging the legendary Ten Methods of Seeing Ghosts at midnight.
The video content is very eye-catching, coupled with eerie music and constantly twisting plots, and it immediately received tens of thousands of likes.
Annan also watched the video curiously and clicked on his homepage.
She has seen many anchors who visit stores, but this is the first time she has seen one from A Piao.
At that time, Kong Dazhu had already posted many such related videos, and the number of his fans had risen to 800,000.
With the income from advertising and live broadcasting, it is not a problem for him to support himself, let alone a wife.
His clothes have obviously improved a lot, with good quality clothes and branded sneakers, and he is no longer as shabby as before.
And the videos he released were all roughly the same.
They always start by explaining folk legends related to metaphysics, such as spirit mediums, ghost walkers, necromancy, etc.
Then follow the legendary steps in person.
The steps were not very accurate, and in the end nothing happened. Then he concluded to the camera, "There are no ghosts or gods in this world."
The most popular video on his homepage was shot in Donghu Forest Park.
This is the official base where Annan is now.
Because it was suspected that a "ghost" was captured, the number of likes and views was extremely high.
The water in East Lake is very deep and the situation inside is quite complicated. In addition, people often come here for wild swimming, so people drown here every few years.
That year, two young lovers committed suicide by jumping into the East Lake, which made the news. Not long after, a few older men sneaked in to fish, but somehow slipped and fell into the water, and two of them drowned.
So there are some metaphysical legends.
Some people said that the couple had been appearing in their family’s dreams, saying that people who committed suicide could not escape reincarnation and had now become water ghosts, and that they needed a replacement.
Others said that several other fishermen who were still alive had a fever for several days after their companion got into trouble, and they also said that they saw Ah Piao that night.
Various rumors spread, and many people said that the two fishermen who fell into the water were bewitched by Ah Piao and became substitutes for the souls of the young couple in the water.
Kong Dazhuan took advantage of this popularity.
I came here late at night after the scenic spot closed, avoided the administrator's sight, and took a video.
He came to the lake and performed a series of soul-calling operations according to the methods of the "spiritualists" on the Internet, such as tying red ropes, lighting candles, burning paper money, etc.
Of course, in the end, nothing happened.
The video ended with a classic ending line, "There are no ghosts or gods in this world. I am a professional counterfeiter named Kong Dazhui. Come and argue with me if you don't agree!"
The reason why this video went viral, besides riding on the news buzz, is that a suspected "ghost" appeared in his video.
When he was reading his opening remarks in front of a sign that read "Forest Park", many netizens took screenshots, saying that there was a ghost behind the door staring at him.
Some people also said that he had made too many metaphysical videos and his forehead had turned dark. So it was a hot topic.
Some said that the ghost image was just a problem with the light, others said that he actually photoshopped it in himself for publicity.
Out of curiosity, Annan enlarged the screenshot and looked at it carefully several times, so he had a deep impression of this location.
I just saw the big sign of this forest park and it immediately came to my mind.
After listening to what Annan said, Gu Zhiyu couldn't help but smack his lips:
"How could such a small internet celebrity who fights against fake feudal superstition suddenly become an apostle sent by the God of Light to the human world?"
It's really hilarious!
Annan nodded: "I wonder how his followers would feel if they knew about this."
Then he complained: "Kong Yanchen, Kong Shenghui... Kong Dazhu really likes to give himself a name and establish a lofty personality."
At this time, the car in front has slowed down. It is estimated that it is almost reaching the destination.
Gu Zhiyu eased off the accelerator, frowned and asked in confusion:
"He is an internet celebrity after all, and his most popular video was shot in Jesan Forest Park. Didn't anyone here recognize him?"
