The path to becoming a tycoon begins with binding to the Godly Rich System.

"Yu Heng said he would handle it." Chu Anlan explained to Sister Qiu a few times, but Wen Qiu retorted, so she could only bring up Yu Heng.

Sure enough, Wen Qiu looked relieved when she heard that Yu Heng could solve the problem.

"Then you should focus on filming on set for the time being, and don't respond to anything online anymore. Just wait and see what the rules are." Wen Qiu stood up: "Don't log into your main account for a while, use your alternate account to surf the internet. I'll have Xiao Wang give you a new phone later, just for internet access!"

These past few days, Wen Qiu has been unable to eat or sleep properly. Now that she has received confirmation from Chu Anlan, she can finally put half of her mind at ease. As for the other half, well, let's just leave it at that!

Meanwhile, Yu Heng was also looking at news from Chu Anlan's fan club on his phone.

When Chu Anlan came out as gay, his fans went wild.

Nearly half of the fans unfollowed, and some even turned against the fandom.

Aside from a few staunch supporters, the remaining people simply didn't believe him and were waiting for Chu Anlan to clarify.

However, Chu Anlan's overall number of fans has increased rather than decreased.

There are fans who ship the couple, tech fans who like the characters from "09", and fans who just admire their looks...

The comments section is also a mess, and fan control over comments has completely failed.

He clicked into the fan club group he had joined, and found that the number of members had also decreased sharply.

[Please trust Lanlan, he cherishes Xiaoyunduo very much. There's been too much messy news lately, we should wait for him!]

[Whether Lanlan likes a boy or a girl, I will support him!]

[Waaaaah... Even though I'm his girlfriend fan, all I want is for Lanlan to be happy!]

[Persistence is key to victory. With all sorts of strange and dangerous things emerging out there, we must hold on and let Lanlan know we're still behind him!]

[I will always love Lanlan. He didn't do anything wrong; he just likes someone. What did he do wrong?]

[Exactly, it's just a perfectly normal relationship; it doesn't bother them.]

…………

There aren't many people left in the group, but they are all die-hard fans of Chu Anlan.

Yu Heng frowned. An Lan really cared about his fans. If he saw the recent situation in the group, he would probably be sad for a while.

Okay, okay: [Transfer Yuan]

Okay, okay: [Transfer Yuan]

Okay, okay: [Transfer Yuan]

Okay, okay: [Transfer Yuan]

[Holy crap, what happened to Xing Ge? Why did he suddenly transfer so much money again?]

[Was it forwarded to the wrong address?]

[Did the big shot get provoked?]

[@行行行, how come you transferred so much money?]

People in the group kept asking, but no one clicked to receive the money.

Okay, okay: [The internet's been too chaotic lately, can someone help us arrange something relaxing?]

Okay, okay: [@Peach, you've taken the money. Have you joined the other groups yet? And make sure Little Clouds joins them too!]

Seeing that Taozi was still in the group and had repeatedly expressed her support for Chu Anlan, and even helped comfort the other Xiaoyunduo, Yu Heng tagged her.

Taozi is a long-time fan of Chu Anlan and is considered a junior admin in the group. She's the one who invited Yu Heng to join the group, so she's quite familiar with him.

He joined the “Lanlan Fan Support Group (4)” and guessed that there should be several other groups before it.

[Ahhhh! Don't worry, Xing-ge, I'll take care of it.]

[Zhuzhu and her team have extensive experience in organizing events, and I will work with them to manage the budget for this event!]

Peach quickly responded to Yu Heng in the group chat.

[Brother Xing, will you come?]

Okay, okay: [I'm busy, you guys figure out the arrangements yourselves.]

Yu Heng refused as before.

The others in the group were used to Yu Heng's style of throwing money around without warning.

Peach quickly organized the event registration in the group.

The tense atmosphere in the group was immediately dispelled, and everyone became more lively.

For the next few days, Yu Heng spent his time in meetings.

The atmosphere within 09 Technology was becoming increasingly tense. The senior management all wore solemn expressions, but they were all full of energy and enthusiasm.

"Are you sure it's today?" Yu Heng asked, propping his head up with one hand and frowning as he looked at Zhang An.

"It's confirmed. It will be broadcast on the evening news first, and then various news reports will follow." Zhang An nodded.

"Ah! I still feel like this isn't real. Have we ushered in a new era?" Dong Senyao slumped on the sofa. He had just finished an important meeting and his head was throbbing.

"Not really, it's just that it's ushered in a new era!" Yu Heng's gaze swept across the city through the floor-to-ceiling windows...

That evening at 7 p.m., apart from the first ten minutes reporting important news, the entire next hour was dedicated to introducing several state-owned enterprises that were fully utilizing robotic operations.

Apart from high-end technical and management positions, all frontline workers were laid off with pay and replaced by robots.

Apart from three or four management positions, the factory is fully automated, with no human operators and all operations handled by intelligent machines.

The laid-off workers' wages and benefits remain unchanged, and they even still have their social insurance and housing fund contributions; they just don't need to work anymore.

Several workers were interviewed as representatives:

What are your thoughts on intelligent machines replacing human workers?

"My thought is that it's great. I get a salary now and I don't have to work."

"I think it's great! I have money and free time now, and I've even enrolled in a hobby class, learning traditional Chinese painting. Life couldn't be better!"

"It feels like a dream, you don't have to work and you still get paid."

The reporter also interviewed the factory leaders:

"Most of the employees are now AI robots. So, besides wages, what other benefits are available for laid-off employees?"

"For laid-off employees, they remain part of our company, and all benefits will continue to be provided in full. Furthermore, considering the boredom they may experience after being laid off, we have established two interest schools where employees can learn skills or cultivate their interests..."

Interview with official leaders:

"Will the replacement of human labor by intelligent robots become widespread, and how will the changes in the work and lives of those whose jobs are replaced be handled?"

"It is an inevitable trend that intelligent robots will replace humans in many industries, and it is also imperative for humans to move towards high-end technology, culture, creation, and humanistic technology. As for the jobs that will be replaced, we will introduce new social welfare programs to compensate for them! During this period, everyone may experience a period of confusion, but please rest assured that we will not abandon any citizen. Once we get through this painful period together, a new era will begin!"
