Jiang Li opened Weibo and then checked the trending topics.
It trended on social media quite a bit.
However, Jiang Li immediately noticed what Lu Jiming wanted her to see.
The entry is—
#The revered master of metaphysics is actually...#
This is a pretty effective way to grab attention.
Regardless of whether they are interested in this topic or not, most people will choose to click in and take a look.
After all, taking a quick look won't make any difference, and what if it's something fun or interesting?
After clicking in, Jiang Li finally understood what it was about.
turn out to be……
The fact that Chen Qiang is not Chen Xu was exposed by the Metaphysics Association.
The Metaphysics Association's announcement, delivered in an extremely sincere and serious tone, informed everyone that this person was not Chen Xu, the association's vice chairman, but merely someone who had served as Chen Xu's assistant ten years ago, named Chen Qiang. All his actions over the years, using the association's name, had absolutely no connection to the association.
However, if someone suffers a major setback because of Chen Xu, the Metaphysics Association will provide some compensation.
This isn't because I feel guilty.
Rather, it's because those people believed in their metaphysical association that they allowed unscrupulous people to take advantage of them. Regardless, they cannot ignore this situation.
The Metaphysics Association, from its inception to today...
This is the first time it has garnered such a huge amount of attention.
Below this statement are various comments.
There were also some who were either haters or loyal fans of Chen Qiang, it's unclear.
In short, the comments were quite speechless.
[Heh, is this really the official account of the Metaphysics Association? Or is it fake?]
[Exactly, it doesn't have many followers, it's definitely a fake account. I've never seen this account active before, what does it mean by suddenly popping up now?]
【What else could it mean? Of course, it's because they want to ride the wave of popularity. They see Master Chen is popular and want to take advantage of it to build up their own account. Isn't this kind of thing common?】
[Why do I feel like this account is real?]
If it's true, why is he speaking out at this crucial juncture? Why didn't he speak up before?
Is it possible that... Chen Qiang wasn't so popular before, and the people in the Metaphysics Association didn't even notice him? But this time, the matter has become so popular that it's reached the Metaphysics Association's attention, so naturally...?
The comment above makes a lot of sense. According to the statement, it's normal that they were unaware of his actions before, but now that they know, they naturally have to come out and expose the fraud. This logic is sound!
[That seems true, but it feels a bit odd that this has come to light at this juncture.]
Looking back now, his performance in the live stream was terrible. He got criticized by Jiang Li, and so many people were criticizing Jiang Li. Now that the truth is out, don't those who criticized Jiang Li feel ashamed?
I think Jiang Li just wants to climb to the top by stepping on Master Chen Xu. How can she live with herself after profiting from someone's misfortune?
[...]
The statement received a lot of comments, which surprised even the members of the metaphysics association.
After all, they didn't buy data; they simply issued a statement.
The immense popularity was something they hadn't anticipated.
but……
This is a good thing for them.
Meanwhile, Chen Qiang was summoned to the company by his agent's relentless series of calls.
Chen Qiang was puzzled, but he still went quickly.
"Tell me, what exactly happened to you?"
As Chen Qiang pushed open the door, a book was thrown right at his face.
Chen Qiang immediately dodged, somewhat annoyed, and asked, "What's going on? Why are you acting crazy?"
"You still have the nerve to ask me? Are those things said online true?" The agent's face grew increasingly ugly as he glared at Chen Qiang.
Chen Qiang looked puzzled. "What is it?"
The agent tossed the phone to Chen Qiang, "Go online and see for yourself!"
Chen Qiang took the phone and went online.
The story about him has already spread online.
Because he did not take immediate action, the situation had already become somewhat out of control.
"Is what this says true?" The agent asked, noticing Chen Qiang's sullen face and displeased tone.
It took Chen Qiang a long time to come to his senses. He suddenly scoffed and retorted, "What right do you have to question me like that?"
"What...what do you mean?" The agent was bewildered by Chen Qiang's attitude. His face turned ashen, and he pressed his hand to his chest in anger. "What kind of attitude is this? Who gave you permission to talk to me like that? Don't forget who's been promoting you!"
"Are you trying to flatter me? It's clearly my popularity and connections that I've built up over the years that are helping you improve your status. If I didn't say anything, wouldn't you be unable to distinguish between what's important and what's not? And wouldn't you understand your own place?" Chen Qiang knew that once the Metaphysics Association made its move, he would have no chance of turning things around.
Therefore, he wouldn't wrong himself by letting his agent scold him.
"Do you know how much this will cost the company? How will the big boss treat you?" The agent changed the subject, deliberately provoking Chen Qiang. "Once the big boss abandons you, you'll be nothing!"
"Heh, the big boss knew this day would come, but it came a little too late, almost making him forget that something like this could happen." Chen Qiang couldn't help but sneer again. "Do you think the big boss doesn't know about my situation? He came to me repeatedly, saying he wanted to promote me and make me famous and rich. I refused many times and explained the seriousness of the matter. He was just too bold and fearless, and luckily, he's made it this far..."
He was a kind-hearted person at first, but unfortunately, he went astray later.
Lost in the world of fame and fortune.
"You... what did you say?" The agent looked at Chen Qiang in disbelief. "You mean... the big boss knows about all this?"
"Not only does he know, but he personally designed my entire public persona. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Chen Qiang sneered. "If you still have any questions, go ask the big boss. Don't bother me!"
He hadn't been online before, so he didn't know about this.
But now...
He learned about this and realized that he didn't have much free time left.
Over the years, he knows better than anyone what he has done.
Since the Metaphysics Association has issued such a statement, it's clear they won't let this go easily.
so……
He already knew what he was about to face.
certainly……
If nothing unexpected happens, he won't be the only one punished; their big boss will also be punished...
The cause of everything is also inescapable.
Chen Qiang had given up resisting, and Jiang Li couldn't help but sigh after reading the news online.
Those who commit many unrighteous acts will surely perish.
While sometimes many people do escape retribution, however…
Who can say it's because there was no retribution?
Perhaps it's just that the time isn't right yet.
Just like Chen Qiang...
He enjoyed his fame for so long, how could he have imagined that he was just participating in a variety show, hoping to gain even greater fame and fortune, and the result was...
But it led to his own demise.
