Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities-Chapter 95 - 93: Lin Hao’s Scandal Is Exposed

Jiang Hong quickly put down his phone and said to Chen Jincheng, "Mr. Chen, those headpieces will be at the Jinmao Building soon. You’ll need to send someone to receive them."

Chen Jincheng nodded, made a call, and Lao Chen hurried in. "Boss."

"President Jiang, let me make an introduction." Chen Jincheng smiled at Jiang Hong and said, "This is the head of our Second Generation Star Photography Department. He’s in charge of this ad shoot. Lao Chen, this is President Jiang, the representative for Rice Sockets."

He trusted Lao Chen. The man was very capable and had been diligently scouting shooting locations for the past two days. The scenes he’d chosen all met the requirements.

"President Jiang, a pleasure!" Lao Chen immediately extended a hand to shake with Jiang Hong.

"Teacher Chen, we’re counting on you for this advertisement," Jiang Hong replied with a smile. "Of course, I’ll be on set to watch the shoot as well. Sorry to trouble you, Teacher Chen."

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Chen Jincheng then instructed Lao Chen to go receive the plug and socket headpieces for the shoot.

Jiang Hong was now very invested in this ad, so he personally went downstairs with Lao Chen to wait for the delivery of the headpieces.

Chen Jincheng left the remaining matters for the ad in Sister Hong’s hands, planning to only go over for the final scene’s filming.

He, on the other hand, returned to his office. He had just sat down when a call came in from Lin Hao. "Lao Cheng, my shit got exposed on Tiao Yin! Fuck, of all the screenshots, they had to pick the one of me f*cking Luo Xin, damn it..."

"Let me see!" Chen Jincheng was stunned. ’A screenshot of Lin Hao f*cking Luo Xin? That shouldn’t have passed the review, right?’

He opened Tiao Yin and, sure enough, found a news video titled ’Influencer Ah Hao Sleeps With Employee, Scene Is Explosive!’

The secretly recorded video couldn’t be uploaded—it wouldn’t pass review. This video was just a slideshow of screenshots. However, the crucial parts were all mosaicked, which is how it got approved.

But for seasoned pervs, the mosaics were nothing; they could easily picture the full image in their minds.

So, the scene of Lin Hao f*cking Luo Xin was plain as day, mosaic or not.

’That guy really knows how to live it up.’

But when he clicked open the comment section, he suddenly found the tone was completely off. Very few people were criticizing Lin Hao for sleeping with his employee. Instead, they were dragging him into it.

"Fucker’s desperate for fame. Is he trying to copy Chen Jincheng’s sex scandal?"

"You can see right through this Ah Hao’s intentions. He probably had someone expose this himself for clout, right?"

"Chen Jincheng’s sex scandal was accidentally leaked because of a computer repair. This Ah Hao’s is obviously staged, isn’t it?"

"..."

"???" Chen Jincheng was completely baffled when he saw these comments.

’What the hell?’

’How did I get dragged into this?’

The thing was, his own sex scandal was the one that was staged, while Lin Hao’s was a genuine leak.

But these netizens acted as if they had grasped the truth, speaking with absolute certainty.

This was the internet. Many people on it couldn’t tell real from fake. They thought the truth was fake, and the fake was truth.

Most importantly, despite being too ignorant to even distinguish fact from fiction, they were so damn confident.

"Lao Cheng, you saw the comments, right? With that sex scandal hype before, don’t tell me you already saw this coming?" Lin Hao’s voice came through the phone.

"You’re overthinking it. I’m heading over to your company now." Chen Jincheng hung up and left Second-Life Star, making his way to Ah Hao Media.

Since he had promised Lin Hao he would help him hype this up and give his popularity a huge boost, he naturally had to handle it now that it was exposed. He had to be worthy of that Ferrari S90 Lin Hao had ordered for him.

Besides, for this kind of situation, the way ’Mao’ and ’Liu’ handled it was truly a classic case study.

Before long, Chen Jincheng arrived at Ah Hao Media. Being an internet celebrity himself, the employees recognized him.

"Brother Cheng, are you here to see Brother Hao? He’s in his office," an employee greeted him immediately.

"Mhm, take me to him." Chen Jincheng nodded and followed the employee to Lin Hao’s office.

As soon as he entered, he saw Lin Hao sitting on the sofa with Qianqian on one side and the Blue-clothed War God, Luo Xin, on the other. The two women were each massaging one of his legs, one on the left and one on the right.

’He really fucking knows how to enjoy the bliss of having two women.’

"Lao Cheng, you’re here." Seeing him, Lin Hao immediately got up to greet him. "Haha, I can’t believe the thing I was worried about just resolved itself like this. It’s good that people think it’s for clout; at least the impact is minimal. But don’t worry, I won’t go back on my promise about the Ferrari S90."

"God is handing you a golden opportunity for massive exposure, and you plan to just waste it like this?" Chen Jincheng retorted after sitting down.

Hearing this, Lin Hao asked anxiously, "Lao Cheng, what should I do then?"

If he could get a huge wave of publicity, why wouldn’t he want it?

Just look at Lao Cheng. His live streams were now getting over 50,000 viewers.

The speed at which he blew up was just insane.

Chen Jincheng said directly, "You need to hire people to make this video exposing you go viral. At the very least, it needs to become a trending topic. You also need to hire an army of shills to insist that it’s real, to make sure everyone knows that you, an influencer, shamelessly slept with your employee."

"Once the hype builds, a lot of people will start digging into this. Then, the website with your video will be exposed, and I believe quite a few people will go to ’observe’ your little film."

"Huh????" Lin Hao was completely stunned. "Lao Cheng, aren’t you trying to ruin me?"

But Chen Jincheng just retorted, "Do you trust me or not? If you don’t, I’ll leave right now, and I don’t want the Ferrari either. If you trust me, do as I say."

"I trust you!" Lin Hao answered without the slightest hesitation. He immediately summoned his assistant and ordered, "Make arrangements to heat up this video exposing me. Make sure people believe it’s true that I slept with my employee. Remember, don’t let anyone find out we’re the ones hyping it."

"???" The assistant was baffled by his boss’s orders.

’This is a terrible thing. Right now, people think it’s just for clout, which is a good thing. The netizens will curse a bit, and then it’ll all blow over.’

’Now the boss actually wants to light his own fuse? Does he want his career to die faster?’

However, the boss had given the order, and as an assistant, he could only carry it out. He left to handle it.

Lin Hao, meanwhile, hurriedly asked Chen Jincheng, "Lao Cheng, what’s next?"

Chen Jincheng asked, "When will the police issue a statement?"

Lin Hao had been following the matter closely and answered immediately, "They’ve already arrested quite a few people. The first statement will be out tomorrow."

Chen Jincheng explained, "Look at the timing. This will reach peak hype by tonight. When it does, you need to start a live stream. A ton of people will definitely flood your stream to curse you out."

"Remember, wear a mask during the stream. Act like you’re too ashamed to show your face. Then, when the viewer count peaks, suddenly end the stream. You have to make it look like you were forced offline by all the hate."

Lin Hao nodded. "And then?"

"And then go see Uncle Policeman," Chen Jincheng said with a smile.

"Huh????" Lin Hao was dumbfounded. He had no idea what good it would do to go see Uncle Policeman about this.
