188: The reputation of the extreme

Hong Shan arrived at the MCN Department.

"Where is Director Huang?"

Not seeing Director Huang's familiar figure, Hong Shan's brow furrowed.

"Young Master Hong, Director Huang resigned yesterday..."

Hearing the employee's answer, Hong Shan was somewhat surprised.

"Resigned?"

"Why wasn't I told?"

"Does he not want to work for Extreme Realm?"

"Fine, that brat Huang Chang has some foresight..."

Hearing Hong Shan's muttering, the employee subconsciously spoke up.

"Young Master Hong, Director Huang joined Jijing Media after resigning."

Hong Shan's expression instantly froze, turning pale and then flushed with anger.

The employee seemed not to notice Hong Shan's expression and continued.

"Furthermore, Director Huang also took some bloggers with him to Extreme Realm."

"What?"

Hong Shan's eyes widened instantly. He grabbed the employee's shoulders, glaring fiercely.

"Who did he take with him?"

"Ai Ai, Xiao Ke, Shan Shan..."

With every name the young employee listed, Hong Shan's grip on his shoulders tightened.

Upon hearing the names of several bloggers with millions of followers, Hong Shan's knuckles turned white, and he nearly ground his teeth to dust!

"That damn Huang Chang!"

"This bunch of ungrateful white-eyed wolves!"

"Extreme Realm has only been here for two days, and they're already wagging their tails and running off with them!"

There weren't many bloggers with over a million followers in Gannan to begin with; every departure was a huge loss for the company!

Not to mention that these people all went to their competitor!

"Damn it, this must be the work of that insidious villain Chen Qiu!"

"This is fraud!"

"I'm going to sue him!"

"I'm going to sue him into the ground!"

Cursing under his breath, Hong Shan let go of the employee's shoulders and walked quickly toward Hong Quan's office.

The employee rubbed his sore shoulders, looking depressed.

"That hurts. Director Huang must have known in advance that President Chen was going to sell Dongmeng to The Hong family father and son, so he ran off to Extreme Realm!"

"Maybe I should run off too..."

The employee thought to himself.

Setting aside Hong Quan for a moment, the employees of the MCN department were well aware of Hong Shan's capabilities and behavior.

He was fine for playing around with female internet celebrities, but making him face off against Extreme Realm? He was just a dog by the roadside!

If nothing else, when the bloggers in the group learned that Dongmeng had returned to the hands of The Hong family father and son, they immediately burst into wails of despair!

Only yesterday, they were hoping that Extreme Realm's resources would fall on them; today, those hopes were shattered!

Nowadays, who doesn't know that Extreme Realm has abundant internal resources? Even a small portion would leave one's pockets overflowing!

Zhang Xin was just a small streamer with two hundred thousand followers a few days ago.

In just a few days, her followers had already increased by over a million!

Looking at the rate her latest video posted last night is gaining likes, it's going to be another video with a million likes!

You have to realize, she's an 'edge-walking' blogger!

With this number of active followers and this level of popularity, she has firmly leaped to the top of the 'edge-walking' category!

Another case is Zhang Mantong!

This blogger, who was already somewhat famous and known as one of Gannan's top ten Baimi, had several videos posted during the music festival over the last two days reach four to five million likes each, and her followers directly broke the two million mark!

Not only that, under Extreme Realm's management, even the AN Girl Group, who filmed videos with Zhang Mantong, saw a surge in popularity.

People who weren't even their fans were pushed their videos, and the hot topic was: "My youth has returned..." Uninformed passersby really thought the AN Girl Group's popularity was reviving.

Only some MCN employees and internet celebrity bloggers could see that this was traffic pouring in like a flood, a brute-force promotion!

It made them incredibly jealous and envious!

Extreme Realm has truly become famous overnight!

Not just in Gannan, but internet celebrities in Gan Province and even surrounding provinces are starting to get restless!

...At this time.

Xingzhou Bay!

Zhang Mantong, whose follower count had skyrocketed, was actually quite troubled!

When she went downstairs to have breakfast at the community entrance this morning, she was recognized!

It wasn't that Zhang Mantong had been recognized before.

But those were very rare instances.

Today, while having breakfast, she was recognized by at least two or three people.

They immediately brought up that embarrassing title of one of Gannan's top ten Baimi.

Zhang Mantong already had outstanding looks and temperament; after being recognized by a few people, passersby thought she was some big star, and the eyes of the entire street turned toward her.

Seeing that a commotion was about to break out, Zhang Mantong hurriedly fled back home.

If it were just that, Zhang Mantong wouldn't have cared too much.

What troubled her even more was that before long, she saw information about her residence in the comments of her videos on various platforms.

[Sister Man lives in Xingzhou Bay?]

[Where is Xingzhou Bay?]

[Holy crap, doxxed!]

[Sister Man lives in Xingzhou Bay with her net worth? Must be fake!]

[Maybe Sister Man bought an entire building there...]

[Brothers, I live not far from Xingzhou Bay. I'm going over right now to wait for Sister Man!]

[+1!]

[This isn't right of you guys...]

After seeing these comments, Zhang Mantong's head throbbed.

Her videos were still being promoted heavily, with thousands or tens of thousands of people seeing them every moment.

Although she deleted those comments immediately, they were still seen by quite a few people.

At noon, Zhang Mantong even saw people discussing this in the homeowners' group.

Zhang Mantong didn't dare take it lightly and quickly contacted Chen Qiu.

"Just move out!"

"Even if your address hadn't been exposed, Xingzhou Bay isn't very suitable for you anymore!"

Chen Qiu said softly.

Since he wanted to create a flawless Baimi persona for Zhang Mantong, how could she live in a community like Xingzhou Bay!

"Then where should I rent a place?"

Zhang Mantong said worriedly.

"No need to rent."

"I prepared a house for you long ago..."

Chen Qiu smiled.

"A house?"

He had plenty of those; why worry about having nowhere to live?

Hearing this, a look of intense surprise appeared on Zhang Mantong's pretty face.

So, he had already prepared a house for her?

"President Daddy is so good to me!"

Zhang Mantong acted coquettishly toward Chen Qiu for a while, then asked hesitantly.

"President Daddy, can I bring Shu Shuang to live with me?"

"It's your house; you can let whoever you want live there."

My house... It was the first time Zhang Mantong had heard such words; sweetness and happiness almost made her lightheaded.

All she wanted now was to fly to Chen Qiu's side immediately and respond to his words with the most passionate actions!

"Don't go out this afternoon. I'll come pick you up in a bit... It's a good chance to film a luxury car video for you too!"

Zhang Mantong's mind was now full of how to make Chen Qiu feel her love.

When she heard "car," the first thing that came to her mind was shaking.

"Mm-hmm!"

"President Daddy, I'll wait for you!"

Zhang Mantong said charmingly...
