Financial freedom starts from graduation

Chapter 212 Perfect Lucky Bag
Mingcheng, in a private room of a clay stove firewood chicken restaurant.

As the song "Years of Friendship" ended, the boys and girls who were also a little dazed finally came to their senses.

"Zhou Wang can also play the piano?"

Class monitor Fang Lu held her phone in her hand, looking surprised. "Why do I remember that he joined the guitar club in college?"

"Lulu, what are you talking about? Is there a piano club in school that we can join? He has no place to perform, so isn't it normal that we don't know about it..."

Yu Peipei said with a smile.

"So this is why he became an Internet celebrity. Is he planning to make a living by performing arts in the future?"

At this moment, most of the people in the room were watching the live broadcast of the Wuyou Festival on their mobile phones out of curiosity. The boy who was playing with the Mercedes-Benz car keys laughed and said, "But Zhou Wang is very good. He pointed at Zhang Dada's nose and told him to get lost..."

"That video doesn't show the cause and effect at all. Considering Zhou Wang's character, how could he curse people for no reason? It must be that Zhang Dada did something wrong..."

Li Sheng, who originally wanted to remain silent, couldn't help but say something after all.

"No matter what, his behavior is very unwise. If he wants to be an internet celebrity, he should establish his image first. Look at the public opinion online now. Tsk, his career path has just begun and it's over!"

As the boy was talking, he was editing a comment on his phone: "Zhou Wang, I know him. He lives in the dormitory next to me in college. His quality is really not that good..."

Li Sheng was irritated by the boy's careless attitude. You know, they played basketball together in college. At that time, this boy called Zhou Wang "Dog Brother" all the time, and he was more enthusiastic towards Zhou Wang than anyone else...

But before he could really explode, Zhang Shihao had already pulled Zhou Wang to the front on his phone.

"Hello everyone, I am the new supervisor of Wuyou Media... My name is Zhou Wang."

The faint sounds coming from four or five mobile phones mixed together and echoed in the private room that suddenly became silent, leaving everyone stunned for a moment.

"I go!"

Fang Lu was the first to come to her senses. She couldn't help but slam the table. "What did Zhou Wang say? He is the supervisor of Wuyou Media? A shareholder? Is that true?"

"CEO Wuyou personally endorsed it, how could it be fake... Damn it, it turns out Zhou Wang is not an internet celebrity, but capital!"

"No, that's Wuyou Media, a leading MCN company. How did Zhou Wang do it?"

It’s okay for internet celebrities, no matter how much money they make, they still can’t erase the inexplicable sense of superiority in some people’s hearts.

However, when the people they once knew suddenly became something they could not even imagine, this huge shock was enough to leave them dumbfounded.

At this moment, Li Sheng looked at the incredible expressions of the crowd, especially the rather distorted expression of the boy holding the Mercedes-Benz car key. He felt as if a basin of cold water was poured down on him in the hottest days of summer, and he felt refreshed from the inside out!

Come on, you like to comment on things, so go on!

Dog brother is still awesome, he can still slap me even from 2,000 kilometers away...

As for the boy holding the Mercedes-Benz car keys, he was completely frozen at this moment. He silently deleted the comment he had just edited and retyped:
"This is Zhou Wang, my good friend from college. We played basketball together every day..."

……

In the dimly lit apartment.

Yu Duo, wearing thin pajamas, huddled in the corner. The mobile phone screen, with the brightness turned up to extremely high, reflected her bare face, making her eyes sparkle like twinkling stars.

Ding Dong!Ding Dong!
In the group chat of "Cai Yi Times Sisters", Su Yajing started to swipe the screen as expected. Yu Duo had no choice but to temporarily exit the live broadcast of "Wuyou Night" and switch to the WeChat interface.

Ran Ran: "【Wuyou Media】's live broadcast room, click to open https:..."

Ran Ran: "Oh my god, brother is so handsome, girls, have you seen it?"

Tongtong: "I'm watching it now... But I knew he was a shareholder of Wuyou before, but I didn't expect he could play the piano so well..."

Ran Ran: "Ah, Tong Tong, how did you know?"

Min Er: "? I don't quite understand. Is this company called Wuyou Media very powerful in China?"

Ran Ran: "Of course, that's the No. 1 company in the MCN industry, with a market value of several billion..."

Min Er: “Scared.jpg”

Ran Ran: "Hehe, brother is really amazing. Ah, what should I do? I miss him so much now. I really want to be..."

Yu Duo had been watching the sisters chatting silently until Su Yajing started talking to herself. Yu Duo couldn't help but typed a question:
"But Sister Ranran, don't you feel that this kind of Zhou Wang is becoming more and more distant?"

As soon as Yu Duo said this, the group suddenly became quiet. Neither Su Yajing nor Shen Yutong spoke anymore. Only Cui Min'er was still asking about "Wuyou Media", but no one paid attention to her...

Looking at the silent Shen Yutong and Su Yajing, Yu Duo already knew their answers. She turned off her phone and leaned against the lighted apartment glass. Her smooth and tender little face was filled with a struggle that she had never experienced in the past twenty years.

What about... yourself?

……

Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center, main venue.

“…My name is Zhou Wang.”

After Zhou Wang finished speaking, the entire venue suddenly erupted in a huge uproar, mixed with many screams -

These screams mainly came from the women at the scene who had long been conquered by Zhou Wang's handsomeness and talent. They didn't care whether Zhou Wang was "morally deficient" or not. They would not have any sympathy for an ugly guy like Zhang Dada.

It was just that they were unable to express themselves just now due to the moral pressure coming from all around.

Now that Zhou Wangyi has revealed his identity, they can finally express themselves freely.

In the VIP seats, except for three girls who had more or less guessed what was going on and did not show much surprise but were just fascinated by Zhou Wang's demeanor at the moment, the other internet celebrities were all stunned.

Lin Dantong was also a little stunned. Although she guessed that Zhou Wang's identity was not simple, she never thought about it at the level of "shareholder" at all.

Zhou Wang's appearance and age are too deceptive...

The sisters Qianyu and Qianxun, who were not very friendly to Zhou Wang, and Ms. Xiao Cheng, turned pale and felt like they were sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in their backs, and like a fishbone stuck in their throats...

"Regarding Zhang Dada's temporary absence tonight, Wuyou Media will issue an official statement later. I was indeed not very polite to him, but everything has a cause. You can make comments after reading our notice. I will personally take all reasonable voices seriously..."

After the noise at the scene subsided a little, Zhou Wang said seriously.

This statement triggered a lot of discussion, but even a fool could tell that Zhou Wang was confident that the fault was not his...

After Zhou Wang finished speaking, Zhang Shihao smiled and continued, "In principle, I support all of Mr. Zhou's opinions on how to deal with this matter. Everyone just wait for the company's notification... Then, I declare that Wuyou Night 2024 has come to a perfect end!"

Amid the soaring flames and flickering lights, Wuyou Media’s internet celebrities with five million fans and signed celebrity guests all came on stage to express their final thanks together with the company’s two shareholders and took a group photo.

When the whole process was almost completed, Zhang Shihao winked at Zhou Wang, indicating that they could leave first.

Afterwards there were some lucky fans taking photos or something, but that didn’t matter to the two of them.

But Zhang Shihao waited for a while, but saw that Zhou Wang showed no signs of moving. He couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Why, you want to take a photo too?"

"Fuck, I feel numb now and can't walk. Let me recover for a while..."

"puff!"

Zhang Shihao was startled for a moment, then he reacted and laughed out loud on the spot, "Fuck, brother, I saw you looked so calm and composed, I thought you weren't nervous at all!"

"There will be some ups and downs in my mood..."

In response to Zhang Shihao's ridicule, Zhou Wang just rolled his eyes.

I'm only 22 years old, isn't it normal to be nervous?
In addition to the tens of thousands of live audiences, there were at least millions of online viewers in the live broadcast room. Being stared at by so many eyes, and experiencing such a grand scene for the first time, it would be a miracle if Zhou Wang could remain calm...

He is not a veteran like Zhang Shihao!
……

The party was over and the audience began to leave one after another, but in a lounge backstage, there was still one person who was feeling very uneasy.

He didn't quite understand why President Zhou asked him to wait here. He was the person in charge of the party. In theory, he should be outside at this time to preside over the closing matters.

This gave Zheng Shifeng a bad feeling, but he was unwilling to believe it.

I don’t know how long it took, but with a “click” sound, the door was pushed open and Zhou Wang walked in with a file bag in his hand.

"Is there any cigarette?"

Zheng Shifeng had just stood up with a smile when he heard Zhou Wang's question.

"Yes, some..."

Zheng Shifeng quickly took out a cigarette from his pocket and went over to help Zhou Wang light it.

"sit down."

Zhou Wang smiled and pointed at the sofa.

Seeing Zhou Wang's friendly attitude, Zheng Shifeng immediately subconsciously thought that Zhou Wang must be taking the opportunity to talk to him. After all, he had just assumed his post and must win over people's hearts. He had just offended him, so he was the best person to conquer...

Thinking of this, Zheng Shifeng relaxed. However, he had just stuffed a cigarette into his mouth and before he could light it, he heard Zhou Wang say with a smile:

"Mr. Zheng..."

"Hey!"

"Give back all the benefits you have embezzled over the past few years and resign on your own."

Zheng Shifeng's hand trembled and the cigarette in his mouth fell out.

"Mr. Zhou...Mr. Zhou, what did you say?"

Zheng Shifeng asked, his face a little pale.

"You heard me."

"No...Mr. Zhou, is there any misunderstanding here?"

Zheng Shifeng asked anxiously.

Zhou Wang didn't say anything, but just threw the file bag in his hand onto the table.

Zheng Shifeng realized something, and after he roughly flipped through the contents of the file bag, he was stunned.

"Boss Zhou, can't you give me another chance? Boss Zhang..."

After several minutes, Zheng Shifeng thought of something and sat up straight with hope in his eyes.

"It's only for Mr. Zhang's sake that I gave you a decent treatment. You should know that if you really want to get to the bottom of it, it won't be me who knocks on the door."

Zhou Wang said softly, "If you still want to stay in this business, stop talking nonsense."

Hearing this, Zheng Shifeng seemed to have lost all his strength and collapsed on the sofa dejectedly, "I understand... Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

……

After Zheng Shifeng left with a look of stupor on his face, a few minutes later, Zhang Shihao pushed the door and walked in.

He sat down next to Zhou Wang, picked up the cigarette box that Zheng Shifeng had left on the table, and took out a cigarette, but he didn't light it, just put it to his nose and sniffed it. "Thanks, brother."

Zhang Shihao patted Zhou Wang on the shoulder.

"Second brother, where did you get this from?"

Zhou Wang asked in surprise.

"Old Zheng just called me, and I could tell he didn't link this matter to me...Also, although I have no objection to how you want to deal with it, Old Zheng has been with me for more than ten years after all. He was there before I founded Wuyou, and I don't want to make things too ugly."

Zhang Shihao said with some emotion, and his admiration for Zhou Wang grew even more.

From another perspective, if Zhou Wang dealt with Zheng Shifeng too harshly, it would actually arouse resentment from other senior executives of the company and increase various hidden dangers. The current scale is just right.

"Judging from the orderly manner of the entire party, President Zheng is still capable. I certainly won't kill him just because he said a few unpleasant words to me. I'm not that narrow-minded..."

Zhou Wang just shook his head and smiled.

"Zhang Dada wants to see you and ask for your forgiveness. What do you think?"

Zhang Shihao nodded, stopped talking about Zheng Shifeng, and started talking.

Zhou Wang was not surprised, this was almost inevitable.

No matter how awesome Zhang Dada is, in essence, he is just an employee who has received a little equity incentive. After learning Zhou Wang's true identity, he naturally became timid.

Not to mention that his absence at the last minute was actually a loss of face for Zhang Shihao. Now that he had no solid reason, he was of course panicking...

"Brother, what's your opinion?"

Zhou Wang did not comment, but just asked.

"Brother, you have already guessed it, right? Why do you want me to say it out loud?"

Zhang Shihao pointed at Zhou Wang with a smile, but he didn't mind, only his expression became a little colder.

"It's too late to apologize now. After all, he was the one who instigated the incident. Let's just deal with it. Although Wuyou Media is not a big group, we don't lack a former star to support the situation."

"Brother, you are wise. I fully agree with you!"

Zhou Wang quickly raised his hand.

"Stop doing this with me!"

Zhang Shihao hit Zhou Wang in annoyance, then stood up and said, "Let's go, Mr. Zhou, the business is over, and we can talk about other things later. Now it's time to have some fun. But tonight's party is probably as important to you as Tang Monk entering the Silk Cave..."

Zhang Shihao winked at Zhou Wang.

Zhou Wang naturally knew what he meant. He just shook his head and smiled. Just as he stood up, he saw Zhang Shihao pause again.

"What's wrong, second brother?" Zhou Wang asked puzzledly.

"Shit, I suddenly remembered that the venue for the party was arranged by Lao Zheng himself. It seemed to be in some private estate. You got everyone away, so it seems a bit inappropriate to use his connections again..."

Zhang Shihao frowned and fell into thought.

"How many people are at the party?"

"Not many, maybe a hundred or so, mostly people from within the company, and some partners with whom we have cooperative relations. Representatives of official organizations will not go to such occasions..."

"If there aren't too many people, how about going to my house?"

Zhou Wang pondered.

"your home?"

Zhang Shihao looked up in surprise.

……

Half an hour later.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom drove smoothly on the West Road of Tianmu Mountain in Hangzhou.

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Hou... Sure, see you later. Bye."

Zhou Wang, who was sitting in the back seat, hung up the phone and did not urge Miao Ying to drive faster. After all, although Zhang Shihao would make arrangements for drinks and other things, the property management company of Taohuayuan also needed to cooperate and help arrange the venue, which would take some time.

If it were an ordinary property management company, it might be a bit overwhelmed, but Greentown Peach Blossom Land has rich experience in helping owners arrange various parties, and Mr. Hou Debiao almost guaranteed that Zhou Wang would be satisfied.

It was not until this time that Zhou Wang finally had some free time of his own.

He unbuttoned his suit and immediately checked the massive amount of unread messages on his phone.

There were relatively fewer missed calls. After all, everyone who watched the live broadcast knew that Zhou Wang definitely had no time to answer the phone, so most of them were WeChat messages, and a small number of text messages.

When Zhou Wang saw the “99+” unread messages, he felt a headache and decided that it was time to clean up his WeChat friends.

Although he didn't have many WeChat friends, there were still many people he added for no apparent reason, and Zhou Wang couldn't even remember who they were...

It was impossible for Zhou Wang to reply to all the messages sent by friends.

There is no movement from my parents and relatives. After all, they are still abroad and probably can't pay attention to this place...

Excluding those people who didn't need to reply, except for Jiang Mo who probably didn't even watch the live broadcast, every girl who had any connection with Zhou Wang sent a message.

Even Cui Min'er, whom Zhou Wang had almost forgotten, was sent out, but she withdrew the message after sending it, and Zhou Wang didn't know what she said.

The one who received the most messages was Su Yajing. Most of them were full of admiration. There was also a selfie of her wearing a vacuum nightgown. The text message attached to it made Zhou Wang slightly hard:
"Brother, it's another day when I really want to be cried by you...so pitiful.gif"

Zhou Wang: "Be good, I will satisfy you next time."

After replying to Su Yajing, Zhou Wang was too lazy to reply to messages from other girls. He would talk about it later.

However, he swiped casually and was soon attracted by another message, which even made him sit up straight.

The dialog box was not noticeable among the vast amount of information, and the text was very brief, but it had a strong effect, so much so that Zhou Wang felt even more excited than when he saw Su Yajing's message.

To Kill a Mockingbird: "Wet."

Just these two simple words were enough to make Zhou Wang think a lot.

Oh my god, this Jiang Qingkui is doing that "child psychology" thing again, right?

Although he thought so, Zhou Wang still replied to her unconsciously, and even responded rudely for once: "Sister Qingkui, what are you talking about if you don't have any intention!"

After saying this, although Zhou Wang didn't want to care, his eyes still unconsciously stared at the chat interface, wanting to see how Jiang Qingkui would respond.

"Hold on."

Soon, Jiang Qingkui's reply came.

What the hell!

Zhou Wang could no longer pretend to be calm. What did Jiang Qingkui mean by this? He really needed to post a picture!
Zhou Wang was waiting anxiously for several minutes before the Rolls-Royce turned onto the Hangzhou-Ruili Expressway. With a "ding dong" sound, a photo finally popped up on the chat interface.

Zhou Wang clicked save at an extremely fast speed to prevent Jiang Qingkui from suddenly withdrawing the message, and then started reading.

To Kill a Mockingbird: "wettoy.jpg"

Shit, what the hell? After all this time you just post a picture of a toy!
While despising Jiang Qingkui for not being able to afford it, Zhou Wang enlarged the original picture and carefully confirmed all the details.

Well, it shouldn’t be an internet photo. The background is the big bed of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Shanghai, which matches the photo Xu Wenxi sent before. It is exactly where they are staying now...

The hands also belonged to Jiang Qingkui, with slender fingers and nude manicure.

It was just that Zhou Wang had never seen this toy before. It looked like a strangely shaped pen, and he had no idea how to use it. Jiang Qingkui did not lie. It was indeed covered with strange water stains. Under the Apple HD original camera, the graininess was very obvious...

"Hey, are you thinking of me playing..."

Zhou Wang first typed a line of words, thought about it, and then deleted it.

Doesn't this make you look like you're being manipulated?

So, in the end, he just replied with "read it".

Seeing that Jiang Qingkui did not reply, Zhou Wang put away his phone and immersed his consciousness in the system interface.

It’s time to count the Conqueror’s rewards…

He had been in a state of chaos before, and the system prompts were too frequent, so Zhou Wang had no time to check them.

But this should actually be Zhou Wang’s biggest gain tonight.

Ding!
As soon as I entered the system interface, the system prompt sounded first.

[It is detected that the number of layers of the title "Conqueror" has been fully stacked. Do you want to settle the reward now? 】

Zhou Wang was stunned, then he took another careful look and suddenly understood.

Originally, this "temporary title" could last for 12 hours, but because Zhou Wang stepped onto the stage, it was equivalent to using a big move directly, so the upper limit of 1000 layers was instantly stacked up, and it was useless to collect emotions afterwards...

In the 1000th level of [Conqueror], there are all kinds of emotions, but they are mainly concentrated in the four emotions of "admiration, wonder, intoxication, and praise", which is also in line with the reactions of the audience.

Since there was no need to limit the time, Zhou Wang naturally clicked "Yes" without hesitation.

Ding!
[The title of "Conqueror" has expired, the system is calculating the rewards]

[Host obtains "Perfect Wolong Lucky Bag" x1]

Because of the blessing of the map, all the "magic balls" have been replaced with "lucky bags". Zhou Wang has drawn "incomplete lucky bags" twice before, and this is the first time he has won a "perfect lucky bag".

I just don't know if there is only one level difference between the two...

Out of curiosity, Zhou Wang clicked "Open".

Ding!
[Perfect Wolong Lucky Bag: Please choose three out of the five rewards below]

[1. Prop "Silas's Real Estate Blind Box" x]

[1. Card "1 Yuan Property Acquisition Card (Primary)" x]

[1. Item "Ezreal's Treasure Map (Primary)" x]

[3. Item "Universal Resume (Primary)" x]

【1. Cash red envelope x】
