Chapter 53 Want to Ban
After giving [Qianniangangtongwang] a gift worth 100,000 yuan, Fan Pingwei left the live stream room with a heavy heart.
He is currently in a VIP ward at Renai Hospital, where the surrounding environment exudes luxury and comfort.
All kinds of advanced medical equipment are readily available, and everything is ready.
We are just waiting for Fan Boren to be ready to donate a kidney.
His wife, Zhang Siyu, came in carrying some tonics. She saw him leaning against the headboard, holding his phone, staring blankly with a serious expression.
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Siyu asked with a puzzled look and concern.
Fan Pingwei then came to his senses and slowly turned his gaze to his wife, "I just had my fortune told by that anchor that Bo Ren mentioned."
"Oh? What was the result?" Curiosity flashed in Zhang Siyu's eyes. "Was that streamer really that good?"
Fan Pingwei nodded without hesitation, "He is indeed a master!"
He recalled the scene he saw in the live broadcast room. The streamer, whose Taoist name was Xuan Jin, looked very young, but his eyes were insightful and not the eyes of a naive young girl.
Moreover, it was this anchorwoman who brought Fan Boren back to her side and gave him hope for life; she was his savior.
But when he thought about the specifics of the fortune telling, Fan Pingwei's face darkened.
"I have good news and bad news. Which would you like to hear first?"
Zhang Siyu smiled helplessly, "At my age, let's hear the good news first."
"The good news is that she said my surgery would go smoothly."
Fan Pingwei smiled, and upon hearing this, Zhang Siyu couldn't help but smile with relief as well, reaching out to gently grasp Fan Pingwei's hand.
“But… we can’t do that business deal with the Lu family.” Fan Pingwei’s expression instantly turned serious. “From now on, I need to clear my mind and focus on the surgery. Wife, let Secretary Bao handle this matter and convey my message to him. Let’s give the Lu family a heads-up as soon as possible; after all, they’re old acquaintances, so let them find someone else to cooperate with.”
Zhang Siyu nodded, "Your health should be the priority now. Let's just leave that project alone."
...
Fan Pingwei's secretary was extremely efficient and quickly relayed the message.
The Lu family quickly received word of this.
Daguan Building stands in the heart of the city's bustling center.
Lu Jianhong was sitting in a luxurious leather chair, toying with a fountain pen in his hand, his face clouded with gloom.
"Previously, Fan Pingwei had always seemed very interested, just one step away from making a move. What exactly changed his mind?"
Manager Wang, one of Lu Jianhong's subordinates, was also discouraged. "Indeed, we've already drafted the contract. Fan Pingwei's main hesitation has always been about the price; he's been very confident about the project's feasibility. Recently, his financial situation has been fine, yet he suddenly made a clear refusal. I don't know what happened."
Manager Wang secretly observed Lu Jianhong's expression, feeling quite uneasy.
"Go and inquire again."
Three hours later.
Manager Wang rushed over to report: "Several major events have indeed occurred in the Fan family recently."
He was breathing heavily, his face tense.
First, it turns out that the fourth young master, Fan Huaiyuan, is not Fan Pingwei's biological son. His biological son is named Fan Boren. Twenty-two years ago, the two children were switched at birth in the hospital. A week ago, Fan Boren had his fortune told on a live stream, and the host revealed his true identity, which is why Fan Boren has been able to return home.
Secondly, Fan Pingwei's new son was a match for him, which means Fan Pingwei's kidney failure can be saved.
Third, and most importantly, Fan Pingwei also went to the fortune teller, who clearly stated that this project was not feasible.
Manager Wang diligently found the live stream clips.
Lu Jianhong snorted coldly, disdainful of Fan Pingwei's decision. "I think he's really senile. He doesn't believe in professional market research, but instead believes in a charlatan on a music platform?"
He took the tablet from Manager Wang, eager to see how this streamer would spread misinformation.
What came into view was a cool and aloof face, with eyes like cold stars, black hair tied in a simple bun, wearing a light-colored Taoist robe, and surrounded by swirling green smoke, like a fairyland.
Looking at that face, Lu Jianhong's pupils contracted slightly, and he felt a sudden, inexplicable pang of fear.
This looks so familiar... I feel like I've seen it somewhere before!
Lu Jianhong frowned and stared at the anchor for a long time, carefully studying the various materials about the anchor.
The streamer's online name is [千年刚通网].
The introduction mentions his Daoist name: Xuanjin Sanren.
The live stream room is named "Only Those Who Are Destined".
Lu Jianhong looked at the information repeatedly, but did not find any familiar elements.
He began watching the live stream clips with a sense of bewilderment.
The further down he looked, the uglier his expression became.
The anchor spoke with absolute certainty, insisting that his project was absolutely unacceptable.
The comments section was filled with jokes, with five minutes of non-stop chatter after Fan Pingwei's character went offline, displaying the phrase "If you won't touch it, then I won't touch it either."
Because this viral event was both spectacular and hilarious, hundreds of clips of the live stream circulated on the platform, with the most popular one receiving hundreds of thousands of likes.
The comments section also attracted a large number of people who didn't originally watch metaphysical live streams to get started.
Lu Jianhong felt a surge of anger rush to his head.
He devoted himself to the Youmeng Lake project, meticulously planning it for five years and investing a great deal of time, energy, and money.
Now all that's needed is the right opportunity, namely investment, but this charlatan has interfered!
According to her alarmist claims, Youmeng Lake is filled with resentment and yin energy, and it can even bring life-threatening dangers.
Once this video clip gets out, where will he find other partners?
This streamer has not only ruined his cooperation with the Fan family, but also completely destroyed the reputation of his project!
Lu Jianhong clenched his fists and slammed the tablet in his hand hard onto the ground.
With a snap, the tablet shattered into pieces, scattering fragments all over the floor.
Lu Jianhong sneered, "Manager Wang, find some connections with Chanle and get this streamer banned. Make her live stream disappear and delete all clips of her on the internet."
Manager Wang looked troubled. "President Lu, I'll do my best, but our connections with Chanle aren't that strong."
"Can't you just throw money at it? What am I doing keeping this bunch of useless PR people around? I can't let some charlatan ruin the Dream Lake project!"
Lu Jianhong roared, his anger reaching its peak.
He has already invested far too much sunk cost in Dream Lake, and he absolutely cannot let it all go to waste.
