Xiao Ming has been very tired in recent days. The overwhelming hype and publicity have helped him regain some of his previously lost popularity.
But these marketing expenses are spent as if they are free.
Xiao Ming had just finished a concert that day. As usual, he went to watch videos and found that his popularity had dropped a lot.
"What's going on? Didn't they spend hundreds of millions on public relations? How come the popularity has dropped so quickly?" He found Brother Li and questioned him.
"Mr. Xiao, there is a reason for what happened." Brother Li tried to explain.
Moreover, his address was changed from Mingming to Xiao Shao, which was Xiao Ming's own request.
"I don't want to hear the reasons, I just want to see the results. Do you understand the results?" Xiao Ming roared.
"The company spent so much money to support you and gave you so much PR fees, but this is the result you gave me?"
"All these public relations fees were used for trending searches." Brother Li took a deep breath.
"Bullshit." Xiao Ming stared at Brother Li with a suspicious expression: "Did you embezzle the money?"
"No, I swear absolutely not." Brother Li was surprised.
Xiao Ming pointed at Brother Li's face and said, "I'm telling you, you'd better not let me catch you, otherwise, I'll make you regret it."
After Xiao Ming finished speaking, he turned around and left. Brother Li clenched his fists and looked at Xiao Ming coldly.
When I walked behind the stage, Li Mengmeng was already waiting there.
"Mengmeng, you're here." Xiao Ming put on a smile.
He usually pretends to be extremely fake in front of others.
Only in front of Li Mengmeng could he truly smile.
"I just heard you sing in the audience. You sang really well." Li Mengmeng smiled slightly. "And your progress is very obvious, Mingming. I'm really happy for you."
"With your words, it's worth it even if I have to suffer a little." Xiao Ming was obviously very happy.
"It's just that your trending searches seem to have dropped." Li Mengmeng opened her phone, a little confused: "What happened?"
"My agent is not capable enough. I will replace him later." Xiao Ming's face was full of frost.
"Brother Li is capable enough. There must be other reasons. Don't think too much about it." Li Mengmeng comforted him.
Then he said: "Just remember to be yourself and don't worry about other things."
"Okay, Mengmeng, thank you." Xiao Ming nodded, and then he said softly: "I'll take you to a place."
"This place is my aunt's most secret base. The people inside are all the elite and wealthy people at the top of society."
"Really?" Li Mengmeng looked at Xiao Ming in surprise.
"Of course it's true. Many people believe in true knowledge. They believe that true knowledge can give them a longer life."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have so many resources."
"Are you...going to take me there to meet these people?" Li Mengmeng asked.
"Yes, you are the most important person to me in this world." Xiao Ming nodded heavily.
"So I will give you everything I have without reservation."
"But there's an important banquet tonight, and I've been invited to a commercial performance."
"I'll take you there after the commercial performance."
"Okay." Li Mengmeng nodded without hesitation.
Nine o'clock in the evening, in a banquet hall of a five-star hotel.
Xiao Ming brought his band to perform on stage for a commercial performance.
This banquet was a charity fundraising event.
Many of Yanjing’s top social elites and business tycoons gathered together.
The scene was very lively. After a song was sung, the soothing sound of violin rang out in the venue.
Xiao Ming didn't expect to meet Xiao Chen here again.
In fact, it is not surprising. After all, Xiao Chen’s current identity is extraordinary.
It's normal for him to appear in such an occasion.
Xiao Chen chatted with a group of business tycoons, and his behavior was already quite like that of a successful person.
On the other hand, Xiao Ming was fiddling with his violin, but no one noticed him.
He had a gloomy look on his face and stared at Xiao Chen intently.
He originally wanted to avoid Xiao Chen. After all, there was a huge gap between him and Xiao Chen now. But after thinking about it, he still felt unwilling.
So he put down the violin, stood up and walked to Xiao Chen.
"Brother, you are here too."
Xiao Chen, who was talking to someone, was interrupted by this sudden voice.
Xiao Chen frowned and turned to look at Xiao Ming: "Why are you here again?"
"I was invited by the organizer to sing and liven up the atmosphere. I guess you know that, brother?" Xiao Ming said with a smile.
"Did you invite him?" Xiao Chen looked at a man who was the person in charge of the organizer.
Xiao Chen's identity is very important, and this person in charge will accompany him throughout his stay here.
"Yes, Mr. Xiao, is there...any problem?" Seeing that Xiao Chen's face looked a little strange, the organizer felt a pang in his heart.
"Look carefully. If there's an occasion with this person in the future, don't call me over again. Understand?" Xiao Chen pointed at Xiao Ming.
"This..." The organizers were dumbfounded.
He didn't dare to ask the reason, but just bowed repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I didn't know. I won't make such a mistake again in the future."
Xiao Ming's face was so gloomy that water seemed to drip from it.
Originally, he thought that Xiao Chen should at least give him some face in front of others.
But now it seems that he was overthinking it, Xiao Chen had no intention of giving him any face at all.
"Brother, you really have no vision at all to target me in front of so many people." Xiao Ming sneered.
Since Xiao Chen didn't give him face, he didn't plan to give Xiao Chen face either.
The forces behind him were also formidable, and they were not afraid of Xiao Chen at all.
"Pattern, you're talking to me about pattern?" Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Ming in surprise: "Do you have this thing? Do you know how to write these two words?"
"I..." Xiao Ming tried to speak, but was interrupted by Xiao Chen.
"You brought Zhou Hai here, didn't you? His influencers and thousands of troll accounts are praising you like crazy, and they're also trying to step on me."
"This is your work, right? You paid him a lot for PR, didn't you?"
"Please, we are enemies now. We want to kill each other every time we meet. Do you still expect me to be nice to you?"
Xiao Ming's face fell, and he looked at Xiao Chen with gritted teeth: "My parents raised you for nothing. If they had known you would be like this, they should have abandoned you."
He said, pointing at Xiao Chen excitedly: "This person is my parents' adopted son."
"My parents treated him better than me, their own son, but he is such an ungrateful person that he ended up harming my parents when he grew up."
"Please do not do business with him. He has very bad character and is problematic."
Xiao Ming performed well. Anger, sadness, accusation, all the emotions were written on his face.
This also attracted the attention of people around him.
