Chapter 73: Chapter 73 Cui Ruogou’s Team

"News says this giant python is ten meters long and almost weighs over 500 kilograms, do you think humans can fish it up using manpower?"

"Really speechless. Just standing on the moral high ground to accuse others, huh? What are you dogs yapping about here, why don’t you go and pull that python up?"

"It’s totally disgusting, maliciously speculating about others, feeling jealous when seeing someone becoming popular, I’ve never seen such disgusting people."

"Exactly, who in their right mind finds a dead body and thinks about hiding it?"

"These disgusting creatures, shamelessly chasing clout with no bottom line!"

...

The one who posted the exposure video was none other than Cui Ruogou.

Some comments defending Ye Chen, Ye Chen could see them just a second ago.

But after he refreshed the comments section, those comments that vindicated him vanished.

No need to think too hard, it was definitely Cui Ruogou starting to delete comments.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn’t help but sneer.

Cui Ruogou probably thought that he wouldn’t dare face that ten-meter-long giant python, let alone fish it out of the artificial lake.

That’s why he was so brazen about manipulating the narrative online.

Ye Chen wasn’t wrong in his judgment.

At this moment, Cui Ruogou was standing in a room full of computers with a smug expression.

Inside the room, seven or eight employees were working on their computers.

These were his newly formed team members.

He published the exposure video and those articles, and stood on a moral high ground to accuse Ye Chen.

His goal was to ruin Ye Chen and then take over his role.

If questioning the food products, then, more to say, it would affect Ye Chen’s reputation.

After all, when it came to Ye Chen fabricating things, he had no concrete evidence.

Honestly, it’s not that Cui Ruogou couldn’t produce any evidence, but he was clear in his mind.

The things Ye Chen fished up, indeed had a high probability of being coincidental rather than being scripted by Ye Chen.

But whether it was a coincidence or a script doesn’t matter anymore.

Now, his own fan base and popularity were what really mattered.

In fact, Cui Ruogou noticed it during Ye Chen’s live stream in the morning.

When Ye Chen caught that five-meter Water Python, he himself was momentarily stunned.

Though it was only for a fleeting moment, it was still noticed by Cui Ruogou.

Catching that creature, even the always courageous Ye Chen was taken aback.

Similarly, when Ye Chen was live streaming, Cui Ruogou carefully noticed.

This five-meter-long Water Python, when Ye Chen pulled it up to the shore with his fishing rod, it almost drained all his strength.

As for the ten-meter-long giant python mentioned online.

Although its length is twice that of the Water Python Ye Chen caught, based on expert analysis.

A mature Water Python has immense strength in water, many times stronger than the five-meter Water Python caught by Ye Chen.

And that giant python, even professional capture teams can’t catch, let alone Ye Chen pulling it up.

Even if Ye Chen really encounters that giant python, he’d probably be scared to pee.

Not being able to catch it, or even if he did catch it but can’t pull the python to shore, he’d probably be scared to pee.

Whichever outcome it is, for Ye Chen who just skyrocketed to fame, none of it would be good.

However, Cui Ruogou analyzed, there was another possibility.

That is, Ye Chen could play the fool, and simply not go fishing at the artificial lake in the Jinbao neighborhood.

Right now, what he needs to do is to continue setting the tone online and keep pressurizing Ye Chen.

However...

Had Cui Ruogou seen that after the live stream ended, Ye Chen went up and started punching and kicking the five-meter-long giant python,

he wouldn’t have thought the same...

To take down Ye Chen, Cui Ruogou had certainly made significant investments.

Previously, he was just a streamer with tens of thousands of followers.

But seeing Ye Chen become instantly popular overnight, he saw this as his chance.

Thus, he emptied his entire savings just to leech off Ye Chen’s popularity without limits.

Not only did he want to ruin Ye Chen, but he also wanted to directly replace him.

In less than two days, this guy’s follower count on the Kuaishou platform actually reached over three million!

There’s not just income from gifts, but also upcoming brand endorsements.

With this account, a simple operation could easily yield hundreds of thousands in earnings per day.

After a brief analysis, Cui Ruogou immediately felt that this was a rare opportunity.

So, he emptied all his savings over the years, even planning to mortgage his house just to seize this chance.

There’s no other way, making waves online all depends on money akin to flowing water, not an exaggeration at all.

He hired professional divers, as well as internet water armies from various platforms, and also pushed his own video releases.

Without spending money,

how could a small streamer with tens of thousands of followers have his videos and marks spread so rapidly online?

Of course, with investment comes returns.

With the expose videos and articles he posted, the "East Sea’s King of Fishing" account already gained close to five hundred thousand followers.

Although this is a lot less compared to Ye Chen’s three million followers, it’s a huge increase compared to Cui Ruogou’s initial tens of thousands of followers.

What excited Cui Ruogou even more was that the number of his followers was still soaring.

At this moment, Cui Ruogou even began to imagine a wonderful life in the future where Ye Chen was hammered to death by him, the traffic all diverted to his side, and he became a millionaire streamer.

Just then, a voice from an employee came from the studio.

"Boss Cui, Ye Chen has released a video on his Kuaishou account, he... he is responding to you!"

"What did you say?" Cui Ruogou’s face trembled with fat, his eyes wide and disbelieving, he said: "He dares to respond?"

"Yes, Boss Cui, he just released a video, you better go watch it."

"I understand," Cui Ruogou said with a frown, his expression grim.

He truly hadn’t expected, at such a crucial moment, that Ye Chen would dare to make a response.

Especially now, the online voices questioning Ye Chen are really overwhelming.

If it had been Cui Ruogou, he definitely would have chosen to keep quiet during this sensitive period, and keep a low profile.

Not only not responding but even turning off the live stream on the account.

After waiting for the storm to pass, then come out again to have some soup.

Why have soup?

Because naturally, the meat would have already been eaten by him!

Little did he know, this Ye Chen, at this crucial moment, actually dared to respond to him.

Is he self-disclosing, admitting that he had faked things?

Could it be that this kid really faked it, and he, Cui Ruogou, just accidentally stumbled upon the truth?

That would be perfect...

However, judging from Ye Chen’s usual character, he probably wouldn’t do that.
