Top Chinese celebrity: Debuted from Running Man

Chapter 309 Chris Wu: Who else?! (Added)

……

……

Seeing Liu Tianxian raise her paddle and bid, Yang Mi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and the slight hesitation in her heart was instantly replaced by the excitement of "stirring things up".

What's there to be afraid of? Just yell and that's it!
Beat a fight, bike change bike!
"One million six hundred thousand!" Yang Mi's clear voice rang out as she raised her bidding paddle without hesitation.

What's a little over two million?
As long as you can get associated with the hottest new generation of top celebrities, you won't have to worry about not having topics to talk about in the future.

As long as Gu Qing remains popular, she can continue to ride on his coattails!

What's even better is that this money might not even need to be actually spent—

What if someone else steals it?

Earning a trending headline about "Several beauties competing" for free is a sure-fire way to make money!

Feeling the spotlight on her as she wished, Yang Mi flashed a charming smile at Gu Qing on stage, even playfully winking and waving, as if to say, "Look how much your sister supports you!"

Gu Qing on stage: "..."

He felt like he was about to lose control of his facial expressions.
Are you people... insane?!

You weren't this enthusiastic when it came to donating money, but you fought tooth and nail over buying a broken fan!
"Hahaha! Interesting! So interesting! Even Yang Mi has joined in!"

"Is this a romantic entanglement or a tumultuous affair caused by my younger brother?"

"What nonsense! Did my brother have any dealings with Yang Mi before?!"

"Why not? When the Mystic Nine was casting, wasn't Yang Mi the first actress revealed to be the female lead?"

"I think her current bidding is clearly aimed at Zhao Liying! She's going head-to-head with the person who's trying to steal her role!"

Fan groups of various celebrities instantly went wild, excitedly discussing this year's biggest drama.

"One million seven hundred thousand!" Another voice joined the fray. Jiang Xin jumped up with a shout, excitedly waving her bidding paddle.

The next second, Liu Tao pulled him back to his seat: "Do you even have that much money? Don't just spout nonsense!"

"Yes, I do! Besides, yelling won't hurt me!" Jiang said confidently, completely unconcerned.

"Huh?! I just started bidding!"

Seeing her bid being instantly drowned out, Jiang Xin, unwilling to accept defeat, tried to raise her paddle again.

"Shut up!" Liu Tao reacted quickly, pressing down hard on her restless wrist.

Seeing that even Jiang Xin had come to join in the fun, Gu Qing on the stage completely gave up struggling and looked up at the ceiling.

Shout, shout, shout as loud as you want, make the entertainment industry explode, drive the fans crazy, I'll just die with you.

In the blink of an eye,
The price of that round fan has skyrocketed to two million! It has become the undisputed auction king of the night!

Bidding continued at the scene.
Only two remain – Zhao Liying and Liu Yifei.

The two exchanged blows, neither willing to give an inch, and the air was thick with an invisible tension.

Everyone was thoroughly enjoying this epic showdown between top actresses.

"Two million one hundred thousand." Liu Tianxian raised her paddle again.

"Two million two hundred thousand!" Zhao Liying raised her sign almost the instant she finished speaking, without hesitation, her eyes resolute.

Liu Tianxian felt a surge of anger rising in her chest!
I just called and you added me? You didn't even give me a moment to catch my breath?

Do you really think I can't afford it?!

Especially in this live broadcast under the spotlight, with so many big-name celebrities watching, who wouldn't get excited?

This is no longer just a dispute over fans; it's a battle for face.

"Three million!" Liu Tianxian didn't want to argue any longer, so she directly increased the stake by eight hundred thousand, intending to end this tug-of-war with lightning speed!

"Three...three million once...three, three million twice..."

Lin Chi-ling's voice trembled. Money wasn't the problem; the problem was the tense atmosphere, which made her palms sweat.

"Oh no, oh no, the fairy sister has unleashed a powerful move!"

"The real rich woman doesn't want to play anymore, you country bumpkin, you should just admit defeat!"

"Scream! Zhao Xiaodao, keep screaming! Don't back down!"

The live stream chat was instantly flooded with intense arguments between the two fan groups.

Just as Lin Chi-ling took a deep breath, her red lips parted slightly, about to utter that decisive third sound—

“Four million seven hundred thousand.” A calm, almost emotionless voice rang out.

Zhao Liying held up the sign with a blank expression.

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence! They're going all in?!
Liu Tianxian's hand gripping the bidding paddle tightened suddenly, her knuckles turning white.

She instinctively wanted to shout "Five million!", but the words caught in her throat.

Four million seven hundred thousand... Just a hair's breadth away from the highest record for a celebrity charity auction item—four million eight hundred thousand sold by Brother Chen Long!
If she raises the price again, whether it's to match or exceed it, it would be disrespectful to her senior.

Moreover, she and Brother Chen Long had previously collaborated on a film, so there was a connection between them.

Moreover… Liu Tianxian glanced at Gu Qing on the stage, whose expression was inscrutable. If she really added it, it wouldn't be a joke anymore; it would put Gu Qing completely on the hot seat!

What, you think his value has surpassed that of international superstar Chen Long?

This is crazy!

After weighing the pros and cons, reason ultimately prevailed over impulse.

She pursed her lips and slowly put down the sign in her hand.

The fan... is mine now.

Zhao Liying felt a huge weight lifted from her heart, but she didn't dare look Gu Qing in the eye.

She turned her head slightly, her gaze fixed on the small wooden gavel in Lin Chi-ling's hand, nervously awaiting the final verdict.

"Four million seven hundred thousand once... four million seven hundred thousand twice..."

Lin Chi-ling's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible relief as she raised the gavel high, "Congratulations..."

"five million!"

A deep and penetrating voice, like a thunderclap, abruptly interrupted Sister Zhiling's last words!
"Who?!"

All eyes in the room, like searchlights, instantly focused on it!

The millions of viewers in front of their screens were also instantly stunned.

Lin Chi-ling was so shocked that her red lips parted slightly, and her hand holding the mallet froze in mid-air, completely stunned.

The person holding the sign was none other than Kris Wu, who had been observing the situation with his signature sunglasses and a cold eye throughout!

At this moment, a cold smile curved his lips, his chin slightly raised, and even through his sunglasses, one could feel his domineering aura.

That's right, it's me, His Highness!

He was inwardly laughing: Gu Qing! Aren't you famous?

Aren't you famous?
Didn't you want to climb to the top of the popularity charts by stepping on my corpse?
Today, I'm going to give you a "big gift"—to let you directly "surpass" Brother Chen Long!
Behind the sunglasses, his eyes gleamed with the exhilarating satisfaction of a triumphant revenge.

He eagerly anticipated seeing Gu Qing's panicked and grief-stricken expression at that moment!
however……

"pound--!"

A crisp, resounding thud of the gavel silenced the entire room, much like the sound of a gavel striking a court.

Gu Qing darted forward, practically snatching the small wooden mallet from Lin Chi-ling's hand, and slammed it onto the auction stage without hesitation!

"Congratulations, Mr. Chris Wu! Your bid is successful!"

Gu Qing's voice was loud and joyful, and her face beamed with a smile brighter than the sun, so dazzling it almost blinded everyone.

"Thank you, Mr. Chris Wu, for your generous donation of five million! You have made a great and indelible contribution to Chinese charity! Let's give him a round of applause!"

He led the applause, his smile utterly genuine.

Chris Wu: "..."

His cold smile froze instantly, as if his body had been frozen in place.

The sunglasses slipped down his nose slightly, revealing a pair of eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.

This...this isn't right, is it?!

Shouldn't he panic?
Shouldn't we be angry?

Shouldn't you want to kill me?!

Why is he laughing so happily?! Why?!

"Ha...this idiot..."

"With that kind of intelligence, how can someone become a top influencer?"

"God is truly blind..."

Some seasoned and composed artists couldn't help but shake their heads, a hint of undisguised mockery and sarcasm playing on their lips.

Yes, you, Chris Wu, successfully made Gu Qing's auction price "surpass" Brother Chen Long's, seemingly putting Gu Qing in a precarious position.

But... is there any possibility?
In such a situation, the one who will truly be burned alive is precisely the bidder who maliciously inflates prices and harbors ulterior motives!

Especially since you are Gu Qing's well-known rival!
By demanding five million, you are essentially announcing to the world that you are here to cause trouble and frame people!

Gu Qing's fans and team must be laughing their heads off right now!

I was already worried about how to deal with the anger of those female celebrities' fans,

Now look what's happened, all of it has been blocked by you, Chris Wu, my "great benefactor"!

"You idiot!!"

—This was almost the unanimous curse that everyone in front of the monitoring screen at Chris Wu's agency uttered.
