The car is going very fast, please bear with it.

When the million-dollar prize was clearly and transparently handed over to Liu Jun, Bing Ge could no longer maintain his seemingly indifferent expression.

"grass!"

With a curse, Bing Ge looked at his phone screen.

I intended to install the network card without moving, and then suddenly shut down the live stream.

But the dense barrage of bullets completely broke his defenses.

"Pfft, failed attempt to watch the show."

"Although the anchor failed to watch the show, we still witnessed a good show!"

"No problem, the streamer's expression changes really fast."

"But that big monster general is really awesome. Damn, he broke Lu Xun's record with ease. He's a top player in the lithography team."

"So, does that mean he's at least T1 level, or close to T1? Strictly speaking, he's still a rookie, right? That's incredible!"

"Bing-ge is about to drop some little pearls~"

Brother Bing: "(•́へ•́╬)!!!"

"Drop your mother's pearls!"

"Fuck!"

Enraged, he couldn't help but throw his phone on the ground.

Bang! Crack!

The phone screen and back panel shattered instantly, and the phone screen went black.

"Beasts! They're all fucking beasts! I thought they were my fans, but they're all just here to laugh at me. Are they even human?!"

A gust of wind blew by.

Bing Ge's few long hairs swayed in the wind.

The surge of emotion quickly subsided, and he suddenly gasped, his face contorted with unbearable pain: "Ah, my phone!"

"My twelve thousand!"

"It's all their fault."

「···」

······

On the way home, Liu Jun drove his Panda in front, and Liu Qian drove her 918 behind.

The car wasn't going fast, the sun was shining brightly, and although they didn't talk, they both chose to open the windows for ventilation, and both were in a great mood.

It was a rare occasion for Gan Ning not to sit in the front passenger seat, but to sit in the back.

Looking in the rearview mirror, Liu Jun saw her looking like a money-grubber, clutching the box containing the million-yuan prize money tightly, and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Little money-grubber."

Gan Ning muttered, "What's wrong with being a money-grubber? This is all part of our equipment!"

"I'd love to have as much money as possible."

"And, a million in cash, have you ever seen that? I certainly haven't."

Liu Jun: "Um, I haven't seen this before either."

"What do you mean?"

Liu Jun remained silent.

He had never seen it in this life, but he had seen it a few times in his previous life.

Within 918.

Liu Qian asked excitedly, "Little goldfish, how is it?"

"I told you he'd break the record, right? He took it in just about ten minutes. So what if he's Lu Xun? So what if he's the Light Lithography Team?"

"As long as I join forces with my savior, all our formidable enemies will be annihilated!"

"Our teamwork was flawless, we were slaughtering them all!"

On the other end of the phone, the little goldfish laughed out loud: "Yes, yes, you're the best, you're amazing, he's killing everything in sight."

Liu Qian was completely unashamed: "Well, I contributed too, and he'll earn an extra million. Tell me, how should I be rewarded?"

Little Goldfish: "What reward do you want?"

Liu Qian: "I haven't decided yet, but lend me two million first, and quickly, so people won't say I'm a liar."

Less than five minutes after hanging up the phone, a text message popped up in her bank account notifying her that two million yuan had been deposited into her account, and Liu Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she had previously appeared very confident, as if she had endless money, in reality she only had tens of thousands of yuan left.

If Liu Qian doesn't lend her the two million, she really won't be able to pay the balance on the spot when she gets back. If she's seen as a deadbeat, her image will be completely ruined.

Absolutely unacceptable.

At this moment, with nothing to worry about, Liu Qian felt carefree and relaxed, enjoying the early summer breeze and humming her favorite song as she comfortably closed her eyes.

Meanwhile, news of the broken lithography record spread like wildfire across the internet.

Liu Jun's record-breaking live stream clips are flying everywhere.

A devoted fan of General Big Monster and Corporal Little Monster, he spares no effort in praising them.

The most vocal supporters are undoubtedly the online trolls hired by the owner of the Wanqu track.

They practically exaggerated General DaDaGuai's driving skills to the point of being unparalleled, while subtly belittling Lu Xun of the Lithography Team and even the T1 drivers.

They're saying that this newcomer, who's only just debuted and has only participated in two races, can already completely dominate T1 drivers and rake in millions in prize money.

Every sentence seems to be true.

But the underlying meaning is that he's praising one person while criticizing another, trying to incite hatred.

Of course, these online trolls' rhetoric also includes plenty of praise for the track owner in the Wanqu area, such as how generous the owner is, offering a million-dollar prize, the record-breaking event still being valid, the newly popular Instagrammable spot, and the new challenge for T1 drivers, etc.

Those unfamiliar with the area might genuinely believe that the Wanqu track is incredibly impressive and extremely difficult, attracting even top-tier drivers to compete.

The online trolls are too fast and too efficient.

This directly resulted in Liu Jun being hated by many even before he got home.

······

The photolithography conference room.

All three drivers are on the team, but unlike last time, there is one more driver this time.

Team manager Xu Kuanxin.

After seeing the content on the big screen, Lu Xun was furious: "Nonsense!"

"How is he better than us? They say T1 drivers are nothing special, and lithography is no good—where did they get that idea from?"

"Manager, I request to go again!"

Shen Zhuiying frowned slightly: "You're getting a little impatient."

Lu Xun turned his head: "But we can't just let these online trolls smear our company, LightSeries, right? That 'Big Monster General' is trying to climb to the top by stepping on me and on LightSeries!"

Zhang Haoran added, "It's one thing to climb to the top by stepping on us, but now they want to shit on our heads."

Shen Zhuiying's lips twitched: "Your analogy..."

"But this matter is not that simple. I don't think it was that big weird general who did it. I have looked into them and even had someone investigate."

"He doesn't have the ability or the resources, otherwise he wouldn't have driven a beat-up Panda to compete. Although driving a Panda to compete is a gimmick, a Panda is still a Panda, and this Panda greatly limits his performance."

"Therefore, the online trolls behind this are probably someone else. It's not that they want to step on us to get ahead, but that someone is deliberately trying to put us down and cause controversy and discussion."

Lu Xun protested, "That doesn't mean we can just let it go like this! To put it more formally, would we, Guangke, really accept this humiliation?"

That's enough.

At this moment, Xu Kuanxin rubbed his temples and said, "Let's leave this matter at that for now. You all need to focus on preparing for war."

Lu Xun: "But..."

Xu Kuanxin's tone was slightly somber: "No buts!"

"You only know one side of the story, not the other."

"In my opinion, taking this matter too seriously will only do us harm."

"First of all, this record is not easy to break. There are live stream clips online, and I have studied them. That 918 is an S-class vehicle! Our main lithography vehicles are all A-class. Although the previous record may not be your limit, it is not easy to advance it by more than a second."

"To break the record with certainty, we'd probably need to bring in a team and work very hard, even going to great lengths, to achieve this."

"But is it really necessary?"

"The lithography team, the main team, is going to have a real match against a rookie individual driver on a small track? Even if you win, no one will think you're that great; they'll just think we won because of our superior equipment."

There's a saying that's very apt: "If you take it too seriously, you'll lose!"
