After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

The term "internet celebrity" has slowly shifted from a compliment to a neutral or even derogatory label.

Although many people aspire to become internet celebrities, it's a bit low for a billionaire CEO like Yang Hao to be tagged as one.

Most tycoons of this caliber prefer not to attract too much attention.

In Hua Country, quietly making a fortune is the golden rule.

Of course, it also depends on what industry the billionaire is in.

For companies like "Lei Bus," which need high traffic, taking the high-profile internet celebrity route is acceptable.

After all, traffic is money!

The growth of "Rice Technology" to its current scale is inseparable from the personal charm of its founder, Lei Bus.@@novelbin@@

But a company where nearly 80 percent of the traffic is concentrated on the founder carries significant hidden risks as it grows rapidly.

If one day the founder steps back, the entire company could take a massive hit, and it's very possible it will never recover!

Yang Hao's current main assets are in the entertainment industry, with numerous stars signed under both Maetian Entertainment and Tianmei Media.

In such a case, it's not actually necessary for Yang Hao, the boss, to carry the traffic, because there are simply too many artists within the company who can generate it.

Besides, a person like Yang Hao, who has too many girlfriends, isn't suited for the limelight, as it's too easy for him to crash and burn.

So, Yang Hao actually doesn't want too much attention.

But contrary to his wishes, while many people desperately want to be famous and can't, Yang Hao has effortlessly become an internet sensation; he's even starting to be recognized by passersby now.

"Hao, you're so popular."

"It seems you're more popular than many stars; why not just debut yourself."

Sun Tiantian couldn't help but tease after hearing the fans' discussions.

"To have Mr. Yang debut, what an idea you've come up with!"

Ye Qianqian scoffed disdainfully.

"Haha, after Hao makes his debut, he could just endorse our clothing brand!"

Sun Tiantian added with a chuckle.

"Uh..."

Ye Qianqian was momentarily stunned, then a smile also appeared on her face.

The brand they founded indeed lacked an influential spokesperson. If they could have a billionaire CEO like Yang Hao as an endorser, the brand's prestige would skyrocket immediately!

Of course, that was just wishful thinking on their part.

How could someone like Yang Hao possibly endorse their startup brand.

The group walked into the sports stadium, chatting and laughing.

Since "My Idol" was about to start recording soon, there were quite a few staff members around maintaining order.

As Yang Hao and the others approached, a staff member immediately came forward to stop them.

"Do you have your work passes?"

A man in a security uniform stepped forward and asked.

"Brother, could you contact your supervisor and let them know that Director Yang has arrived?"

Qin Feng stepped forward and addressed the security man, with Yang Hao right beside him. Otherwise, with Qin Feng's flashy character, he might have arrogantly said something like: You recognize XXX, and you're still working as security?

The security man gave Qin Feng a puzzled look, then turned to glance at Yang Hao and the others, including Ye Qianqian and Sun Tiantian behind him.

The men were handsome, and the women were beautiful, all dressed exceptionally well.

The security man quickly grabbed his walkie-talkie and reported the situation here.

A moment later, the deputy director of the show's order maintenance rushed over, running towards them.

"Director Yang, what brings you here!"

"Please, come in~"

The deputy director was a portly middle-aged man with an oily face. Seeing Yang Hao, smiles piled onto his greasy face.

Yang Hao was not only the financier of "My Idol," but also the owner of Maetian Entertainment and Tianmei Media. Even though his status as the major shareholder and chairman of the Hucheng Cultural Broadcasting Film and Television Group had yet to be publicized, he was certainly a big shot in the entertainment industry.

Anyone in the entertainment circle wanted to build a good relationship with him.

Led by an assistant director, Yang Hao and his entourage made their way directly to the artists' lounge.

Yang Hao's visit today was primarily to drop by his younger sister-in-law's set.

At that moment, Xiao Yinqiu happened to be in Li Manni's lounge, and the two of them, waiting to start work, were chatting about the topic of Yang Hao taking down eleven kidnappers all by himself.

"Manni, you've known Director Yang for so long, and you didn't realize he knew martial arts?"

Xiao Yinqiu had watched the online video over and over again, a dozen times, but she still couldn't make out exactly how Yang Hao had moved; all she knew was that with a few casual gestures, the kidnappers who rushed at him all ended up on the ground.

"I had no idea, my brother-in-law never mentioned it."

Li Manni shook her head. In fact, after seeing the news, she called Yang Hao right away, concerned for her brother-in-law's safety. She forgot to ask how Yang Hao managed to fight off eleven assailants, so she was quite curious too.

"I've watched that video many times, and it seems less like martial arts and more like magic!"

"Especially with that blond guy at the end—it seemed like he laid down by himself. Director Yang didn't even touch him."

"If it's not magic, then what is it?"

Xiao Yinqiu propped her chin with one hand as she analyzed. There were quite a few netizens who shared her view, odd as it may seem, blaming that blond guy for being too cowardly. Seeing people like Zhao Hu getting knocked down in one move, he lost the courage to even make a move; to avoid getting hit, he simply laid down on the ground directly.

However, it was this act that became the evidence of Yang Hao's "magic."

Many netizens had already started referring to Yang Hao as "Magician Director Yang"!

Hearing Xiao Yinqiu's words, Li Manni shook her head somewhat speechlessly, then joked, "Don't tell me you're the one spreading rumors about brother-in-law knowing magic on the internet!"

"How could that be!"

"I saw others saying that."

Xiao Yinqiu pouted her lips, "But whether it's martial arts or magic, I really want to learn. If I could do that, I wouldn't be afraid of perverts!"

"True,"

Li Manni nodded in agreement, acknowledging that for girls of their attractiveness, self-defense was essential.

While the two chatted idly, someone knocked on the door of the lounge.

The person they had been discussing then walked into the lounge.

"Brother-in-law, what brings you here!"

Li Manni's eyes lit up with joy, and she stood up from her seat excitedly.

"Director Yang!"

Xiao Yinqiu also stood up, "Speak of the devil, and he appears!"

"I'm here to visit the set."

Yang Hao greeted them with a smile on his face.

He then introduced Ye Qianqian and Sun Tiantian to the others.

"Empress Xiao, I'm a huge fan of yours."

"I begged Director Yang for a long time before he agreed to bring me here," Ye Qianqian greeted Xiao Yinqiu with a smile, but her words were only twenty percent genuine.

She could be considered a fan of Xiao Yinqiu, but the term "die-hard" was a stretch. Her real reason for coming along with Yang Hao was to assess the "rival in love."

Upon seeing Li Manni and Xiao Yinqiu, she somewhat understood why Yang Hao insisted on keeping the girlfriend spot unoccupied.

Ye Qianqian was always confident in her looks and figure, but now, compared with Li Manni and Xiao Yinqiu, even she felt somewhat inferior.

If she felt this way, others would likely see it the same.

"Qianqian, your rivals seem quite formidable!" Sun Tiantian whispered to her friend after they had exchanged a few pleasantries and taken their seats.

"So, we need to team up!" Ye Qianqian replied in a low voice, linking arms with her best friend.
