My capital is quite large.

Inside the living room of a luxurious villa in Yiyun Valley.

After Bai Lu tearfully explained the whole story, Li Xin's delicate face turned deathly pale with anger.

Again and again!

"Bai Lu, are all the people in your Bai family brains filled with mush?!"

Li Xin slammed her hand on the table, her phoenix eyes filled with barely suppressed rage, and she sternly rebuked him:

"It's only been a few days since your relative embezzled funds! And now you dare to touch the master tape negatives!"

"Are all the Bai family members this brave?!"

Bai Lu slumped to the ground, his purple gymnastics uniform soaked with cold sweat. He ignored Li Xin's scolding and just kept wiping away his tears.

Fortunately, although Li Xin was furious, she had managed to stand firm in Hao Feng's camp for so many years, and she was no longer the naive and guileless woman she once was.

After her initial outburst of anger, she forced herself to quickly regain her composure and began to weigh the seriousness of the matter and its potential consequences in her mind.

If everything Bai Lu just said is true, then her idiot cousin Bai Wu got the job as a warehouse manager at the film studio by virtue of his associate's degree.

And if Bai Lu never helped him with any connections or backdoors from beginning to end...

Then this matter is relatively easy to handle.

As one of the women who has been by Li Feng's side the longest, Li Xin naturally knows the current state of her man.

He is now neither short of money nor power.

The only thing they care about is saving face.

It is also absolute authority and inviolable dignity.

As long as this matter doesn't publicly embarrass Li Feng, and as long as Bai Lu can understand his place and demonstrate sufficient loyalty and obedience.

This catastrophic disaster might actually become an opportunity, making the boss take a second look at Bai Lu.

......

Having made up his mind, Li Xin's originally stern voice softened.

She walked to Bai Lu's side, reached out a hand to pull her up, and said calmly:

"Wipe away your tears, what kind of behavior is this, crying like that?"

"Now, immediately compile your cousin's bank card number, his current phone number, and all the details of the call you just had."

"Don't hide a single word. Go and call Secretary Zhang in the president's office right now and report everything in detail."

Seeing Bai Lu looking somewhat dazed, Li Xin patted her shoulder, his tone serious yet reassuring:

"This is your responsibility, Mr. Li; you can't escape it."

"But as long as this matter has absolutely nothing to do with you, I assure you that the film and television department will definitely not dare to let you take the blame."

"Do you understand?"

Hearing Li Xin's insightful guidance, Bai Lu nodded vigorously, like a pestle being pounded in garlic.

"Understood! Thank you, Sister Xin!"

"I'll call Assistant Zhang right now, and I won't hide a single word!"

Bai Lu hurriedly picked up his phone from the ground, just about to dial a number, when Li Xin beside him suddenly snorted coldly and gave a final word of advice:

"Also, once this is over, keep an eye on your troublesome relatives."

"If there's a next time, no one can save you."

"Yes! I'll cut off all contact with my family as soon as I get back!" Bai Lu hurriedly replied in a trembling voice.

......

Just as the film and television industry was still in chaos due to the leak of the entire film "In the Name of the People".

In March, however, the domestic gaming industry witnessed a revolutionary change that could overturn the entire esports landscape.

Despite the fact that Tencent Games next door just announced the successful acquisition of the developer of H1Z1 and promised all Dongda players that the region block would be lifted soon and localized operations would be carried out.

But at this time, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG), developed by Haofeng Games, had become incredibly popular in internet cafes and on computer screens throughout Dongda University, spreading like wildfire.

Even League of Legends, the evergreen online game under Lao Chen's management, has recently shown signs of being squeezed out by PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in terms of daily active users and internet cafe share.

Feng Ji, as the person in charge, clearly has no intention of giving the penguin any breathing room.

Just days after the game's launch, Haofeng Games officially announced:

The inaugural PPL (PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds) professional league has been officially established, and preparations for the global finals, PGI, have been fully launched.

The prize pool for the inaugural Global Finals will be an unprecedented $1000 million!

Ten million US dollars! That's nearly 70 million RMB!

This astronomical prize money, the largest in the history of PC gaming esports, quickly propelled the enthusiasm of players and professional clubs across the internet to an unprecedented climax.

But what excites the entire game live streaming industry even more is that Haofeng Games announced:

The third-party game streaming rights for "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" will currently be completely free and open to all users across the internet.

This move is tantamount to dropping a nuclear bomb in the already fiercely competitive battle of live streaming platforms.

During this period of easy access to content without any copyright barriers, platforms like Douyin, Douyu, and the newly emerging Panda TV all changed their most prominent homepage recommendations to "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" almost simultaneously.

For a time, the popularity of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" was unparalleled across the entire internet.

If you open a live stream on Douyin or Douyu during prime time, you'll find that hundreds or even thousands of popular streamers who used to play League of Legends, and even a large number of former professional LOL players, have switched to playing PUBG.

The screen was filled with images of parachutes streaking across the sky and M416s strafing.

Amid this massive wave of migration, Wu Wukai, the super streamer with the highest online popularity and the most momentum, known as the number one streamer on Douyu, naturally couldn't escape the trend either.

At this moment, in Wu Wukai's live stream room, where his daily popularity is maintained at several million.

A match from PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is playing on the screen.

Wu Wukai, who was usually terrible at shooting and died as soon as he landed, and couldn't even tell directions in the game, seemed to be possessed by a god of war tonight. He was dominating the island map with an SKS and a fully equipped M416.

"Twenty-nine kills!"

When the last shot accurately blew off the enemy's helmet on the hillside, and the green message "Winner Winner Chicken Dinner" popped up on the screen, the final result was announced.

The entire chat room of Wu Wukai was immediately filled with a barrage of comments and a frenzy of worship.

"Holy crap! 29 kills for a chicken dinner! Is Kai possessed or is he a sniper god?!"

"Awesome! So awesome! Kai-ge is amazing!"

Amidst a deafening chorus of praise, a few jarringly critical comments intruded on the screen:

"Wow, this marksmanship... 200 meters away, 14-round burst with an SKS, and the crosshair doesn't even waver? Is this a new weapon? How did it suddenly become so amazing?"

"It's definitely cheating, even a fool can see it. The day before yesterday he was a camper who got eliminated as soon as he landed, and today he has 29 kills? He's not even pretending anymore?"

However, before these questioning comments could linger on the screen for more than two seconds, they were instantly overwhelmed by a massive and incredibly powerful army of Wu Wukai's fans, who launched a barrage of attacks and insults.

"Get lost, you haters! Keep being sour! Who is our Kai? A former professional League of Legends player! World runner-up!"

"You haters would never understand the FPS gaming talent of a world runner-up! Isn't it only natural that he picks it up quickly?!"
