Star Tycoon

Chapter 98 Refuting Rumors
The certificate issued by the tax bureau is useless; now the entire internet is condemning that male streamer who made a fortune by deceiving people.

Tian Ersan didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but many people he knew were calling to ask about it.

A female anchor I know asked me this.

A member of the group asked this question.

The female celebrity asked.

The supplier is asking.

The partners are asking.

Some high-ranking officials and dignitaries I know have also asked this question.

Everyone was asking Tian Ersan if he was alright.

Tian Ersan chose to waste time on work and refused to answer the phone.

When I was resting that night, Rong Guangcun, the vice president I knew before, called to inquire about the situation.

"Mr. Tian, ​​why haven't you made any moves these past few days? There are a lot of people online saying that you should disclose your assets and accept public scrutiny."

Tian Ersan replied, "Not responding is a form of response."

Rong Guangcun said with a smile, "What kind of response is this? If we don't respond in time, it will bring many irreversible consequences."

Tian Ersan said, "Let them say what they want, I'll do what I want. I'll earn as much as I can, and they can burn as much money as they want. Unless they say that wearing my clothes or eating my canned food can cause cancer, I don't think it will have much of an impact. In the past two days, some reporters have wanted to come and interview me, but I have refused them all."

Rong Guangcun does not approve of this self-deceptive strategy.

Rong Guangcun asked, "Isn't this a bit too humiliating?"

Tian Ersan laughed and said, "Then I might as well go down with the netizens. We'll all announce our assets and real estate. I'll donate all my money and houses, and the netizens will also donate all their houses and money."

Rong Guangcun couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"President Tian is being too domineering."

Tian Ersan said, "Just kidding, I don't want to pay attention to those idiots."

Rong Guangcun saw that Tian Ersan was too aggressive. "This time it wasn't them who caused this. President Tian, ​​calm down. As far as I know, it seems that a clothing company in Jiangnan bought the trending searches. It's not just blog posts, but various search websites and portals have similar trending topics. You're hindering others from making money."

"Many people in our company's user chat groups are also spreading this. This kind of thing is not illegal and does not involve sensitive content, so it is difficult to stop it."

After learning the truth, Tian Ersan calmed down considerably.

The 30 million yuan in sales during the 88 Shopping Festival definitely dominated a significant portion of the low-end market. Coupled with the continued hot sales, this impacted the business of many clothing stores.

Both locals and outsiders are extremely envious.

Tian Ersan realized that he had to explain now, otherwise the consequences would be very bad.

"Let me post a video to explain."

Rong Guangcun: "Okay."

Tian Ersan took a shower, then went to the air-conditioned room to log into his live streaming account.

[The streamer has started broadcasting?]

[What's going on?! They suddenly started broadcasting!]

[Hello, Second Brother!]

Tian Ersan said, "Let's play games first, and talk to everyone else when there are more people. It seems like I made the headlines today. I'll just chat and answer some questions, and explain when there are more people. Otherwise, it's too tiring to explain over and over again."

[The streamer has started broadcasting?]

[Second Brother, did you really make a hundred million?]

Why did you suddenly start a live stream?!

[Second Brother, you're on the homepage!]

【what's the situation? 】

[Second Brother, that's great! The broadcast has started!]

[Resurrected?]

Tian Ersan did not continue to explain, as many people who came later did not see what was said earlier and came in asking questions.

Explaining it over and over again is exhausting.

After playing one game, the number of viewers in the live stream had reached 100,000!
Soon, Tian Ersan lost a game and looked at the camera after closing the game.

"Alright, we have enough people. Let's start by answering the most basic questions."

"First, I have never accepted any donations, and I will not now or in the future. Moreover, I will not participate in any charitable projects or donate money, so please ignore me when you need to donate money in the future."

"Secondly, I never wanted to be pitied in the first place. I have sold my dignity to ask for tips, but I have never tried to gain sympathy by playing the victim."

"Third, you can ask questions now, and I will choose to answer them, but I will select the best comments."

[Second Brother, did you really make a hundred million?]

Looking at the question, Tian Ersan repeated it before answering honestly:
"rumor!!!"

Tian Ersan said angrily, "This must be some ignorant people making up nonsense to deliberately confuse the public!!"

[I knew it! It only sold for 780 million in total, how could Second Brother have made a profit of 100 million?]

【Ten million a day is even more absurd. At most, it would only be ten million a day. It's impossible for it to be ten million every day. Do you really think we're stupid?】

Second brother, I believe you!

Seeing the trusting viewers in the live stream, Tian Ersan declared righteously, "I didn't earn a hundred million!"

"Those ignorant people are definitely spreading rumors on purpose! To dispel these rumors, I must tell you the truth!!"

【well said! 】

Rumors stop with the wise!

[Second Brother, don't bother with those people. That place is a cesspool; no normal person would go there.] [Streamer, how much have you actually earned? It must be at least ten million, right?]

I feel it's more than that.

I feel it's less than ten million, one million at most is about right.

Looking at the various comments, Tian Ersan quickly became serious and said with an expression that was definitely not a joke: "I, Tian Ersan, have now accumulated a net worth of more than 200 million yuan by relying on cheap clothing, commissions, and the business I've been doing lately. More than 200 million yuan! Not 200 million!"

"The rumors online about earning tens of millions a day are close, but absolutely false. I haven't reached that level yet. My sales figures are about the same, but the profit—the money that ends up in my bank account—is definitely not ten million a day!!"

【6666666】

【Hold!】

【Grass! 】

【66666666666】

【Grass! 】

【Awesome】

【Day】

[Dog]

【Fuck】

【66666666666】

The viewers in the live stream spammed "66666" and "ca ...
Holy crap!

[Holy crap!]

[Second Brother, are you bragging?]

【I do not believe! 】

Do you dare to take out your bank card and let us see? Let us broaden our horizons!

Tian Ersan took out his mobile phone, quickly logged into his online banking account, and brought up the bank account with his name on it.

"Look carefully, the balance is 230 million!!"

Tian Ersan, seemingly shameless, earnestly stated to the camera, "From June 7th when I started livestreaming until today, it's been almost three months! And that's only a little over 70 million a month!"

"The claim that I earn millions a day has been proven false! It's a rumor!"

Everyone in the live stream felt utterly dumbfounded!

Others are spreading rumors too little; he didn't just spread rumors for 100 million, he spread rumors for over 200 million!!
At this point, no one believed Tian Ersan's denials anymore, and everyone subconsciously believed the claim of a daily salary of ten million.

I've earned 200 million in about a month, from August 8th to now!
Daily salary close to ten million!

This puts them in the top tier of domestic entrepreneurs!
Even the richest man in China can't make money as fast as him!!
No wonder some people are envious!
Anyone who sees that would be envious!
The live stream chat exploded with excitement once again.

Tian Ersan didn't forget to add a patch, "Let me tell you, we live in the best of times! As long as you're willing to work hard, you can be just as excellent as me!!"

【husband!】

[Honey, I love you!]

Love me! Love me!

Here's a one-yuan tip for you! That's my share out of the 300 million!

[Second Brother, is this your small goal?]

Honey! Love me just once!

The most bizarre scene on the internet has appeared: a large number of poor people have started sending gifts to rich people!

Gifts worth one or ten yuan kept popping up everywhere!

Tian Ersan didn't collapse; in fact, it gained even more fans!

Those who spread rumors online that Tian Ersan earns tens of millions a day quickly stopped making a fuss.

They really do have over 200 million!

When the major apparel entrepreneurs saw Tian Ersan's account balance, they discovered that the slander against him was actually true, and they were immediately extremely upset.

As industry insiders, they had carefully calculated Tian Er San's profits, but when they actually saw how much he was making, they felt as if they had lost a lot of money.

The rumors about tax evasion have been notarized by the government, which has stated that there is no problem.

Spreading rumors about his private life won't help.

Even celebrities can have their downfalls, but Tian Ersan isn't a celebrity. He's an unmarried entrepreneur and a poet who's supposed to be a playboy!

No one thought that a handsome guy like Tian Ersan, with his looks and eloquence, would force those girls; instead, they believed that the girls themselves were simply indecent.

Tian Ersan doesn't just work on one platform. If one platform dares to ban him, he'll just take his fans to the next platform. Now, every platform definitely treats him like a god of wealth.

The rumors spread by the outside world did not bring Tian Ersan down; on the contrary, they made him even stronger.

Tian Ersan directly shed the false persona that required pity and sympathy, and transformed into a young, wealthy, top-tier internet celebrity.

The 2.3 million yuan has a clean origin and we are not afraid of being investigated.

Fans are no longer afraid that Tian Ersan will become rich overnight. Even if Tian Ersan earns hundreds of thousands a day, some people will still be jealous of him and will not want to give him money.

Now that he earns millions a day, boycotting him is as ridiculous as boycotting various internet giants for fear of giving them money to make them rich overnight.

Despite the bizarrely large amounts of virtual gifts appearing in the live stream, even online stores have seen a resurgence in business.

In just one night, Tian Ersan's online persona was established.

[Two months! 230 million!]

That evening, major portal websites and news media were all reporting on Tian Ersan's net worth.

Starting from scratch, he earned 230 million in just two months!
