Jiang paused for a moment: "What's wrong? Can't we talk on the phone?"
Zheng Zhong: "It's like this, Mr. Jiang. Someone is maliciously spreading rumors and slandering you online. They've dug up information that Longlin Entertainment signed the contract for you, saying that you deliberately created this persona of retiring from the entertainment industry. They also claim that Longlin Entertainment did this on purpose..."
Jiang paused, glanced at the live stream camera, and noticed that the staff members didn't look too happy either.
Jiang Zao hung up the phone, opened the Weibo post that Zheng Zhong had forwarded to her, and scrolled through the comments. Sure enough, the insults were very harsh.
Jiang Zao chuckled dismissively and typed a message to Zheng Zhong.
Jiang Zao: [Please reveal that I am a major shareholder of Longlin Entertainment, and explain why I am participating in this variety show.]
Zheng replied quickly: 【Okay??】
Afterwards, Jiang calmly put down her phone and continued eating.
Lu Xin leaned closer and whispered to Jiang Zao, "Zao Zao, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"
Jiang Zao raised an eyebrow: "You'll find out in a bit~"
Lu Xin nodded blankly.
Soon after Jiang finished eating, Longlin Entertainment's official account released an announcement.
Longlin Entertainment: [Official Statement! Longlin Entertainment Co., Ltd. hereby announces that Ms. Jiang Zao, as our largest shareholder and director, has been actively involved in the company's operation and development. Ms. Jiang Zao has also brought valuable ideas and resources to the company. Furthermore, Ms. Jiang participated in the dating reality show because she received the most votes on Weibo. We persuaded her to participate after much effort; we wouldn't dare scare her away. We also thank Ms. Jiang for her continued dedication and contributions and look forward to continuing to work with her!]
The official clarification announcement from Longlin Entertainment's account caused a huge stir online.
No one expected such a dramatic turn of events, a turn of events that no one could have imagined.
Who would have thought that 18-year-old Jiang Zao would be the largest shareholder of Longlin Entertainment, and even the chairman of the board?!
Netizens were confused.
Lu Jinye, a reporter from this morning's media, was also stunned.
Wu Long kept saying, "Holy shit! Holy shit? Holy shit!?"
Lu Jinye hadn't expected Jiang Zao to be so capable. Longlin Entertainment was a leading company in the entertainment industry, with a market value of over 10 billion!
What an amazing find he's made!
Wu Long, standing to the side, was a little jealous: "Lu Jinye, how come you always get to have such good things happen to you!"
"Jiang Zao is incredibly rich! Incredibly handsome! And so incredibly talented, how did you manage to snag her?"
After his initial shock, Lu Jinye recovered and flashed a smug smile: "Well, there's nothing I can do, my family has liked me for a long time~"
Wu Long vomited: "Ugh~ How shameless!"
The online comments were even more shocking!!
Netizen 1: [Holy crap, what's going on?!]
Netizen 2: [We've been talking about this for so long, and it turns out Jiang Zao is the major shareholder?! The major shareholder of Longlin Entertainment?!]
Netizen 3: [Ah!! What's wrong with having one more rich person in the world!??]
Netizen 4: [So... Jiang Zao is that rich...]
Netizen 3: [Not only that, think about it, Longlin Entertainment is Jiang Zao's company, so what about her family, her parents' wealth? Jiang Zao's wealth is unimaginable for ordinary people like us...]
…………
When Jiang Zao came out of the classroom, she felt a different atmosphere. Everyone was staring intently at her, as if they wanted to make her bloom with their gaze.
Jiang Zao touched her face; there was nothing dirty there.
Lu Xin also received the news, but she wasn't very shocked, as she already knew that Jiang Zao was a shareholder of Longlin Entertainment.
Back to the Love House.
The staff's attitude changed dramatically; everyone became exceptionally attentive.
Jiang Zao walked in nonchalantly, when Ge Qian rushed out and exclaimed, "Zao Zao! So you're a major shareholder of Dragonscale Entertainment!"
With a loud bang from Ge Xi, everyone's gazes turned towards her, albeit subtly.
Jiang Zao nodded without any hesitation: "Yes."
Ge Xi clung to Jiang Zao's arm, wailing, "Waaah, Boss! Please take me under your wing! I need to cling to your coattails! You're a golden thigh!"
Jiang Zao was amused by Ge Qian, her bright face showing a teasing tone: "But you're holding onto a golden arm~"
Ge Xi paused, then exclaimed, "Here comes the big shot!!"
Just as Ge Xi was about to pounce on her and hug her leg, Jiang Zao dodged away, saying, "Ouch! No, no, I'm ticklish!"
The two started arguing.
At this moment, Ren Ye and Wang Yingjie also returned. When they saw Jiang Zao, their expressions were the complete opposite.
Ren Ye's expression was rather unpleasant, and he didn't even dare to look Jiang Zao in the eye. He went back to his room on his own.
Wang Yingjie walked over with a smile on his face: "Sister Jiang... you're done with get out of class?"
Jiang paused, a strange look on her face: "If I remember correctly, you're older than me, right?"
Wang Yingjie's expression froze, then he looked at Jiang Zao with a stiff smile: "Uh... this is to show respect."
Jiang Zao: "No need, just call me Jiang Zao normally."
Wang Yingjie nodded in agreement.
Ge Xi also felt the atmosphere was strange, so she dragged Jiang Zao to the private cinema on the third floor to watch a movie.
As evening approached, everyone returned.
As soon as Lu Jinye entered, he spotted Jiang Zao, walked over, took her hand, and, avoiding the microphone and camera, pouted and said to her, "Zaozao, is there anything I don't know?"
"You really gave me a wonderful surprise today!"
Jiang Zao smiled mischievously, "There are many things you don't know."
Lu Jinye also knew that Jiang Zaozao was doing some things, some very good things, so he didn't ask: "Now it's all over, everyone thinks I'm a kept man."
Jiang Zao laughed heartily: "So, Lu Xiaobai, how does it feel to be a gigolo?"
Lu Jinye kissed Jiang Zao's little hand, his expression roguish and handsome: "Not bad~ I don't have a good appetite, so I have to eat something soft."
Jiang Zao was amused by Lu Jinye, and the two whispered a few words to each other before coming out again.
Xiao Wen looked at Jiang Zao with a smile in her eyes: "I didn't expect that Jiang Zao would be our big boss?"
Zhuo Jianshan chimed in, "That's right, President Jiang. We'll have to rely on you a lot more in the future."
Jiang Zao hurriedly waved her hand: "Don't do this, I'm not used to it. Just be normal."
Ge Xi pulled Zhuo Jianshan aside and laughed: "That's right, the way you two are making it hard for Zao Zao to know what to say."
Jiang Zao nodded: "Yes, just treat me normally. Don't treat me like a boss. I don't usually manage anything at the company."
Lu Jinye smiled faintly: "Yes, don't put any pressure on Zaozao, she's already blushing."
Jiang Zao patted Lu Jinye's arm.
Lu Jinye's smile was so irritating.
