Chapter 23 Kane is persecuted
As the person in charge of the publicity department, Cudi simply cannot describe this bizarre workplace experience in words.
During this period, the search index of Star Dome Entertainment Media Company, along with the personal popularity of President Kane, inexplicably soared.
I thought it was just like the previous newcomer's accidental disappearance, and there was a major public opinion incident. As a result, I found out that the source was actually a novel!
The key is that this novel, after searching and reading it...
It made the person in charge feel sour and excited all night, and at the same time, a little scared.
This is the best and the reality is purely coincidental.
At present, the readers under this plot are so excited that they want to kill Caesar.
If this really has something to do with their own president, Ken, wouldn't they all be in trouble?
Even now, hundreds of comments can be refreshed in one second under the public account.
[So Ken, you really don't know how to fall in love at all. To be honest, I'm really heartbroken! You have a face that is super good at falling in love (pointing and pointing)
[Boss Ken, do you know that money and love can't be equated? Wuwuwu!]
[Yeah, I bought a lot of peripherals from your artists this year. I bought clothes for my wife, oooo!]
Although many of the influx of interstellar readers are here to play with memes.
After all, the time to wait for updates is always so long. Suddenly I discovered that Kane, a three-dimensional real boss, is extremely fun.
Undoubtedly, it became an excellent emotional connection in an instant . But the person in charge
of the official account of Xingqiong Entertainment was caught off guard by the surging public opinion. At first glance, he really thought that his own president had been exposed. He
actually signed an extremely absurd marriage agreement with a young pianist named Gu Bai!
What should he do if this scandal has spread to his boss?
Until an employee who had followed "Marriage Agreement" showed up and tried to explain After a while, everyone realized that this was just a plot in a novel.
However, after everyone in the publicity department worked overnight to make up for this novel "The Root of All Evil", almost everyone looked at each other in confusion and sweated profusely.
How can I say it...
I can only say, God, this book is damn good... Bah, it's the damn Caesar in this book, how come he really looks so much like my own president! ?
Could it be that my own boss is actually the scumbag in the book! ?
So, when Cain looked at the publicity department's public relations materials in his hand, and felt the subtle gazes of doubt and condemnation from inside and outside the office, even his secretary.
Cain, who didn't have time to feel sad, finally realized the seriousness of a certain problem.
"Contact the Universal Reading headquarters immediately, we must find this author as soon as possible!"
When it comes to refuting rumors, it is definitely not enough for the parties involved to clarify the matter themselves.
However, if the author himself can also participate in the clarification and publicly state that the two have nothing to do with each other, the effect will definitely be different.
Moreover, in a sense, Starry Sky Entertainment and Universal Reading are indeed both entertainment-oriented business groups, and there are many business exchanges between the two.
It seems that it is not difficult to urgently contact the other party's senior management to inquire about the Star News account of a contracted author.
"And we must act faster."
"However, your originally scheduled offline event tomorrow happens to have a press interview session, and you will definitely be asked relevant questions at that time. We can take this opportunity to clarify the matter!"
Another person in charge also made a serious suggestion after Kain made his position clear.
If the rumor is not dispelled as soon as possible, if "The Contractual Marriage" becomes popular in all major galaxies, and even readers in other galaxies know that there is a real-life version of Caesar in Starry Sky, then our boss will not be able to clear himself even if he jumps into the galaxy!
In the Universal Editorial Department, Shax was almost in high spirits that day, and colleagues with good relationships in the office Everyone was congratulating.
On the contrary, the old editor Lei took a week off sick and did not come to work.
After all, "Agreement Marriage", which is still on the top of the list, is undoubtedly a slap in the face to Lei's attitude a few days ago.
Who would have thought that such a groundbreaking new work would not only not fail at takeoff, but would become a phenomenal work in one fell swoop!
Now, let alone the internal part of the Huanyu APP, even several major mainstream forums and platforms have countless posts discussing this strange new book at this moment, and people are madly squatting and looking forward to the author's next update.
I can't wait to see the day when Caesar outside the ward discovers the truth!
"And Xingqiong even consulted the author's Xingxun account. Are they going to buy the copyright?!"
"Oh, who would know..."
Shax couldn't help but feel a little happy about his colleagues' envious guesses.
The next second, he went to tell Yu Mian the good news.
[Crispy Shark: Mr. Fish Noodle Soup, your work seems to have been noticed by Xingqiong Entertainment! They came here specifically to ask for your contact information!]
You should know that Xingqiong Entertainment is a dark horse in the interstellar entertainment industry. It is generous and has invested star money everywhere. The key is that the performance of the film and television works it produced is still very good.
Shax thought Yu Mian would be so happy that he took off, but he didn't expect that after a while, he only got one sentence:
[Fish: Thank you, it has been added... ORZ]
[Crispy Shark: Huh? ? Has it been added? Is it the person in charge of the copyright department of Xingqiong? 】
【Fish: No, it’s Kain himself...】
【Crispy Shark: Holy shit!!! 】
In fact, when Yu Mian looked at the account "EN" in the optical computer that he had approved as a friend, he suddenly realized that this guy was the same big guy with the same name who rewarded him with a lot of star points! ?
Although there is also the possibility of having the same name.
But EN, isn’t it just Kain’s En... The more he thought about it, the weirder it felt.
【Holy shit, Kain! 】
What Yu Mian didn’t expect was that his own system also screamed after seeing Kain’s application.
So after a remedial lesson, Yu Mian became even more silent.
"So, what you mean is... Kane is the president in the book to whom I owe a huge amount of liquidated damages? My original self almost went to debut at Starry Sky Entertainment!?"
[Yeah... I was offline before, so I forgot about the memory transfer. Besides, aren't you following the popular superstar plot line that our system originally planned?]
The little system added hesitantly.
[I just didn't expect that you would still write him into the book as a reference... You two are really destined to meet.]
"..."
Yu Mian felt like his brain was exploding for a moment. Oh
my god, how can I put it? I can only say that the moment the system reminded me, everything seemed to be just right.
It turns out that the "disappeared newcomer" mentioned in the news at that time was me! ?
As a result, the person concerned read the news without any ripples, and even used the classic overbearing CEO Kain as a reference material in the novel...
At this moment, Yu Mian's guilt towards Kain simply reached its peak.
Although it was the original body who did the pigeon-slaying, since he had already traveled through the book, it was only right for him to take the responsibility.
As a result, Kain in the Xingqiong office unexpectedly discovered that the attitude of the fish soup author opposite him was unexpectedly cooperative!
[Fish: I'm really sorry, this is indeed a misunderstanding! I will seriously explain it in the author's message in tomorrow's update! ]
[Fish: I'm really sorry to cause you so much trouble! [Slip kneeling.jpg], if there is anything else I can cooperate with, I will do my best! 】
The other party’s attitude was so friendly that Kane felt a little embarrassed.
Actually, how should I put
it? I wasn’t angry at first... I can only say that the book "Agreement Marriage" is indeed too new, too strange, and too interesting, so that everyone who reads such a book for the first time can’t help but be addicted!
In addition, it was late at night that day, and everyone was very excited after reading the ten chapters, so they couldn’t avoid being a little impulsive.
What’s more, the comments section has developed to the point where it’s like playing with a meme!
In a sense, it is equivalent to buying a phenomenon-level marketing hot search for Xingqiong.
Caesar in the book, on the surface, seems to be a character that countless readers are heartbroken about, but in fact, his image is still as glittering as ever.
He is rich, wealthy, and affectionate, but he just can't fall in love!
It can be said that his personality charm is not bad at all.
And even the shortcoming of "not being able to fall in love" is actually a character stunner if you look closely.
Because what does this prove?
This proves that before meeting Gu Bai, this guy had never been in love! He is rich and loyal!
It is simply extremely wonderful to avoid the question of how a wealthy and
domineering CEO can be the first love. So to a certain extent, the character of Caesar can be called the ideal type in the novel world.
It is definitely not a coincidence that he can make so many interstellar readers fall completely as soon as he appears.
However, for Kane, who was addicted to following the latest updates, he didn't realize that he had subconsciously started to make excuses for Yu Mian.
[EN: OK, I roughly understand.]
[There will be a press interview at Xingqiong tomorrow afternoon. We will make a statement to clarify the matter, and we hope that you can explain in the work update that there is no relationship between the two.]
Yu Mian finally got a reply from Kane.
OK, OK, this is indeed very thoughtful.
Kane made a statement in the offline press interview, and he also explained it clearly in the author's message. The effect of taking two approaches at the same time will definitely be much better.
Yu Mian, who was just relieved, felt even more worried when he thought about the huge amount of liquidated damages that his original body still owed to this partnership.
Fortunately, Kain didn't know his other identity.
Otherwise, as a fugitive employee, he would write similar articles to his suspected boss and cause such a big public opinion storm...
It would be too socially dead!
[Yu: Yeah, okay! In fact, even if you didn't say it, today's update will immediately enter the next stage of the plot! There will be a major plot twist on Caesar's side, and the update content should also be able to form a good double clarification effect with the press conference. ]
Yu Mian was worried that Kain was worried, and even took the initiative to explain a few sentences.
In fact, if I had written a few thousand more words, I'm afraid that the public opinion situation faced by Kane would be very different, and he would not be directly drowned by the passionate interstellar readers late at night...
What a sin.
[EN: Well, can the content of the next chapter be updated as soon as possible? This way, it will be announced at about the same time as the interview, and the effect should be better. ]
Unexpectedly, after Kane was silent for a long time, he sent a new message hoping that Yu Mian would update in advance!
This must be because he was deeply affected by public opinion, and he wanted me to refute the rumors immediately.
Yu Mian didn't think much about it, but felt that he really had to finish writing early today and update in advance to help Kane, the domineering president, get out of the public opinion crisis as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the whole universe would think that he has a wife in his heart.
But in fact, Kane just suddenly realized...
Wow, isn't this opportunity for him a perfect excuse to urge for a better one! ?
Please, who doesn't want to see Caesar know the truth soon!
Just seeing Yu Mian's subconscious spoiler that there is another major development in the plot, Kane already wanted to switch pages directly to Huanyu Reading to catch up.
You can tell with your hair that this "major development" is definitely related to the one million reward!
Although this directly caused the person in charge next to Kane to look at his own president with more suspicion.
The key point is that who would have thought that after personally contacting the "culprit" who caused a major public outcry, his boss's face not only showed no signs of anger, but instead he chuckled to the computer several times.
This world must be crazy!
For a moment, the CEO of the company outside the book, Cain, simply overlapped with the domineering CEO Caesar in the book.
In any case, "Marriage Agreement", which is under the attention of the stars, has indeed been updated ahead of schedule today.
This simply gave the Star Readers who didn't know the truth a big surprise.
The key is that today's update is still very powerful, without any dragging nonsense, and it directly enters the exciting topic at the beginning!
["Gu Bai is injured?"
Looking at the hospital in front of him, Caesar's shocked tone subconsciously carries a bit of unconscious worry.
Could it be that Gu Bai got sick and injured accidentally and didn't tell himself! ?
The drivers in the front row looked at their young master in astonishment, completely unable to understand what the couple was doing.
Obviously, he was still angry the second before, and this second he started to worry again!
After refusing the driver's company, Caesar hurriedly put on sunglasses and a mask, put on a black windbreaker, and sneaked in thinking he was flawless.
But he was extremely eye-catching along the way.
Caesar's cool blond hair and long legs made people unable to help but take a few more glances.
And the next second Caesar found that Gu Bai hurriedly met a handsome man in a white coat with gold-rimmed glasses who was obviously very familiar!
The other party even patted Gu Bai on the shoulder! ?
Damn, how dare this guy touch Gu Bai? !
However, before Caesar, who was clinging to the corner of the wall, could get jealous, Gu Bai ran into a ward the next moment.
The moment Gu Bai walked in, his mother woke up, which was rare!
"Silly child, I'm in good health, there's nothing to worry about..."
When his mother on the hospital bed saw Gu Bai outside the door, she couldn't help but smile lovingly.
She hugged Gu Bai who had thrown himself into her arms, and reached out to touch the child who made her most proud and the most apologetic.
"I'm just very happy."
Gu Bai responded to his mother earnestly with a slight sob, and he didn't notice the tall blond figure standing outside the door in a daze.
Seeing his mother getting better, Gu Bai even felt that he would never regret agreeing to the agreement with Caesar.
For his mother, he was willing to accept all of this.
However, after a long silence, the mother looked at Gu Bai worriedly:
"But I heard that this special medicine is very expensive. Where did you get the money?"
After hesitating for a long time, Gu Bai's mother couldn't help asking this question.
There was even some worry and helplessness in her eyes.
"..."
And this question from his mother did make Gu Bai look a little nervous.
After all, he didn't let the doctors and nurses tell his mother about his engagement with Caesar.
Marrying someone who hates him for money doesn't sound like he will be blessed.
So after a long silence, Gu Bai finally chose to lie.
"I met a kind-hearted person while working. After hearing about my situation, he temporarily lent me some money, so that's enough."
"But I will definitely pay him back. I'm trying my best."
Holding his mother's dry hands, Gu Bai softly affirmed.
But his mother couldn't help but feel uneasy after hearing all this.
Where in the world can there be such a kind-hearted person? Lending such a large sum of money to a stranger without any purpose?
"...Don't always care about me so much, child. Always remember that your own affairs are the most important. Go back to class as soon as possible."
The mother and son talked for a long time. After watching Gu Bai finally leave reluctantly, the forced smile on the mother's face gradually returned to a worried look.
As a mother, I was really worried that Gu Bai would offend someone he shouldn't offend because of me.
Gu Bai's life should have been smooth and peaceful, but it was ruined because of me, who should have died long ago?
I was almost like a burden...
However, when my mother was lying on the hospital bed, worrying and blaming herself alone, there was a sudden knock on the door of the ward!
?
Could it be that Gu Bai couldn't help but come back to see me again?
The mother was worried the previous second, and the next second she found that it was not Gu Bai!
She saw a tall figure with blond hair, holding a bunch of particularly luxurious flowers and a bunch of gift fruit baskets in his hands, looking at Gu Bai's mother inside with an extremely serious expression.
Even the next second after putting down the gift, he reached out and firmly grasped Gu Bai's mother's hand:
"Mom, how are you recently?"
And Caesar's sincere "Mom" also stunned the old man on the hospital bed. He
even looked at the young man in front of him with some surprise and confusion.
It's strange that my family seems to have never had such a relative? 】
As for the readers outside the book, they were extremely nervous all the way and saw this scene of divine development, and they couldn't control their emotions at all!
Damn, Caesar, you are really good!
The plot of Gu Bai and his mother in the previous second was so heartbreaking. Who could have known that the next second, as soon as Caesar appeared on the scene, the tragic atmosphere disappeared in a second!
Who gave him the confidence to call "Mom" right away? Did little angel Gu Bai agree?
How come this guy is so familiar?
Fortunately, Caesar's appearance from head to toe is impeccable, and he is almost the perfect blind date in the eyes of his parents! At least he is
a handsome young man who looks very reliable.
So much so that Gu Bai's mother did not mistakenly think that it was a gangster who broke in at the first time.
["Who are you...?"
Caesar, who shouted without thinking a second ago, also realized that he seemed to be exaggerating.
Caesar hesitated twice with a rare blush.
The key is that when Gu Bai was eavesdropping outside the door just now, he didn't even announce his existence!
Am I really that incompetent as a partner?
Or maybe Gu Bai didn't want his family to know his identity!
Caesar's heart was full of grievances again, so his tone became weak.
"Well... I, I'm Gu Bai's friend. I heard what he said about you, and I'm worried..."
The 185cm tall man stammered and explained without any aura, but the old man couldn't help but smile weakly despite this.
"So, is Gu Bai popular in school? Does he have many good friends?"
The old man was actually very interested in his son Gu Bai's topic.
In addition, Gu Bai was lonely in the ward for many years, and it was not always possible for him to rush over immediately. The old man was actually very happy to have someone to chat with.
Caesar, in a rare move, suppressed all his temper and chatted with the old man for the whole afternoon, answering questions and answering them!
Until the evening when Caesar had to leave, the old man even had a great liking for this so-called "Gu Bai friend" and almost asked the nurse to bring Caesar some apples to take away.
On the way back, Caesar sat in the car and felt for the first time that he didn't understand Gu Bai so well.
Looking down at his palm, Caesar recalled the feeling of holding the old man's palm that was as dry as a walnut shell.
Before meeting him, had Gu Bai also held his mother's hand like this for countless days and nights without seeing any hope?
But he persisted all the time. He
was even very optimistic and never gave up hope.
At this moment, Caesar recalled the scenes when the two first met, and had almost completely different feelings.
If he and Gu Bai exchanged starting points, and he was not born in the same family as Gu Bai, could he do better than Gu Bai?
The emotions in his heart were almost extremely complicated.
It was a kind of heartache, guilt, appreciation...even an emotion that was far from being described in words.
Maybe meeting Gu Bai was his luck.
At this moment, Caesar suddenly made a decision.
He wanted to revise the prenuptial property agreement.
He wanted to truly share the property income with Gu Bai!
But at this moment, Villain No. 2 appeared again as expected.
"What!? You actually want to modify the property distribution in the agreement? But have you forgotten that this Gu Bai is clearly after your money!"
The villain couldn't believe what Caesar said in the office.
He tried to remind Caesar again and regain a little bit of rationality.
"Ah, isn't that great..."
However, after returning from the hospital, Caesar was almost in a trance.
Villain:?
Caesar: "After all, the only thing I don't lack is money. I have more money than I can spend in my lifetime."
"In this way, as long as Gu Bai needs money, won't he be by my side for the rest of his life!?" At
this moment, Caesar even had a happy smile on his face.
Villain:! ? ?
[Whoever wants to be the villain can be the villain, but I can’t be the villain anymore! .jpg]]
However, as Caesar’s classic lines came out in the main text, almost every interstellar netizen who reads here at this moment was deeply shocked!
Although on Earth, such lines have long been all over various short videos.
However, in the context of a serious work in the interstellar era that promotes selfless love and love, it seems so fresh and unconventional.
After all, this is really unconventional and interesting.
Is it wrong for the protagonist to have money?
Does a novel have to write about a hard and poor love to highlight the firmness of the relationship?
I just like him and I like my money, so what!
Yes, I know all this clearly, but I still like it very much!
At first glance, this seems to be an extremely vulgar love story about money, but once you carefully appreciate it from the perspective of the domineering CEO Caesar, it is simply weird that the more you think about it, the more pure love it is.
The god of pure love fell to the ground.
Yu Mian looked at the comments area with satisfaction, and after emphasizing again in the author's message that "the characters in the book are purely fictional, and there are absolutely no real people in the real universe", he finally sighed with relief.
"There should be no problem now."
Cain should not be mistaken for Caesar again.
But at this moment, Cain is indeed at an offline event.
Just after Starry Sky officially declared that "Caesar" and "Kane" had absolutely no relationship, and Starry Sky President Kane himself was unmarried, the event finally entered the final press conference.
"I just want to ask President Kane one last question. If your future partner also showed interest in your huge wealth, would you also be quite disgusted by this, or even say something inappropriate?"
The reporter who got the last precious questioning opportunity directly combined the hotly debated plot of the novel "Contract Marriage" and asked Kane the most pointed question.
But in fact, before participating in the event, Xingqiong had already predicted and prepared for the tricky questions that would be faced during the interview.
"Anyway, no matter how the reporter asks, you can answer in the opposite direction of Caesar in "Contract Marriage" and make readers realize that you and Caesar in the book are completely different and independent individuals. Basically, the problem can be solved."
The person in charge of the publicity department held a thick plan in his hand and solemnly checked with Cain.
"Don't worry."
As for Cain, who thinks he is a loyal reader of "Contract Marriage", he should not know too much about the character of Caesar.
It's easy to catch him by showing the opposite!
Just answer in different ways.
So at this moment, when Kane heard this question, he almost subconsciously smiled confidently and expressed his opinion in front of the camera without hesitation:
"Of course not!"
"If I meet my ideal partner in the future, I will be willing to share and bear everything with him/her."
"Besides, money is not that important to me. I have more money than I can spend in my lifetime."
Although he deliberately gave a different answer, Cain felt that he was indeed different from Caesar in this respect!
He was so rich, why would he care whether his partner had money or not.
If he could meet a "Gu Bai", he would have given him everything! However
, Cain, who thought that everything was finally over with the end of the questioning session and was about to leave to catch up, found out with some hesitation...
Why did everyone's eyes looking at him suddenly change? ! There
was a bit of burning in the excitement, and a bit of subtle weirdness in the burning.
Not far away, Cudi, who was blocked from the surging crowd and waved his hands wildly with his president for a long time, almost fell to the ground and was carried to breathe oxygen after hearing Kane's answer.
Vicious!
I can only say that this wave of updates by this author is too vicious -
he seems to have completely predicted everyone's predictions! !
