A Valiant Life Chapter 741 - Something Major Has Finally Happened

The next day!

Shanghai TV

“Good. This is really too good.”

“I never thought that we would have a show with a rating past 4.”

“Haha, ‘Strongest Heavenly Voice’ has broken past 4. It has pulled apart from ‘Where has mommy gone?’.”

“This is just the third episode. Each episode better than the last. Director, your foresight is really too sinister. Getting Master Lin to be a mentor was indeed the wisest decision.”

The deputy director did not forget to lick the director’s boots. However, he was really very happy. Shanghai TV had been oppressed for so long. Now that it had turned over, if he said he wasn’t excited, he would have been lying.

Director Liu was in a pretty good mood too. “You guys may not know this but Hunan TV gave me a call today. Although they didn’t say much, they sounded very bitter.”

“In the past, Hunan TV was always number one. Now that we’ve overtaken them, my mood is terrific. However, Master Lin has completely blown up in popularity. I wonder how many television stations will be inviting him onto their shows. After all, having him on a show means that they will get good ratings.”

Director Liu cleared his throat. “Alright. What matters is we good on our part. We have to do our best and make a good first season.”

The staff members were all filled with confidence and hope for the future.

On the Internet.

‘Shanghai TV takes the glorious first place in ratings.’

‘Contestant loses out on a big opportunity for a small gain. She is filled with regret.’

‘Master Lin possesses an intense individuality that cannot be reproduced.’

‘Zhao Li flames a contestant on the show but is ridiculed by Master Lin.’

…

The headlines of these articles were each more overbearing than the last.

When Zhao Li saw these articles, she wanted to kill herself. She had never expected things to turn out like this. Back then, she had been in a bad mood and had been unable to control her emotions.

Now, she had been represented badly on the Internet. She felt extremely unlucky.

In the end, she blamed all of this on Lin Fan. If it had not been for him, this would definitely not have happened.

Ever since the ‘Strongest Heavenly Voice’ had started showing, the ma.s.ses of netizens felt that they had gained greater joy in their lives. Every day, regardless of whether anything had happened, they would look through the Internet in antic.i.p.ation of more news.

“I strongly recommend ‘Strongest Heavenly voice. You will definitely not regret watching it.”

“This show has broadened my horizons. Master Lin is simply incredible. Whenever he gets an opportunity, he would start flaming someone.”

“Ying Jin has been flamed. Zhao Li has been flamed. Liu Ying Dong has been flamed so much that he doesn’t dare to speak anymore.”

“These are all big shots. I feel like Master Lin is the only one who would dare to do this.”

“Isn’t that obvious? Who else would dare to do something like this?”

According to Shanghai TV’s calculations, discussions regarding Master Lin had reached a level of 89%. This was enough to prove that this was a one-man show.

Moreover, it was because of this one-man show that the ratings of ‘Strongest Heavenly Voice” had blown up and crushed everything else. Even Hunan TV was not a worthy compet.i.tor.

If they had not seen this for themselves, they would never have dared to believe it.

Cloud Street.

w.a.n.g Ming Yang called.

“Brother, what’s the current situation?”

“Didn’t you watch the show? I’ve already found two good, young talents for you. They are very reliable.”

“No, that’s not what I’m talking about. It’s good that you’ve found young talents for me but you can’t just take choose two contestants. At the end of the show, you’ll need to rely on them to take the first prize. If you have so little people, it will be very hard to take the first prize.”

“Don’t worry. It doesn’t matter whether I become the champion or not. I’m on this show just to play around.

The two of them casually chatted for a while more before hanging up.

Although ‘Strongest Heavenly Voice’ was quite meaningful, it was quite tiring to keep partic.i.p.ating in it.

In a certain town.

Yang Jie was very displeased. He realized that he had been ignored.

“You have reached my number. I am currently unable to answer.”

Looking at the phone number, a malevolent expression appeared on Yang Jie’s face. He had not expected Ying Jin not to answer his call. Did she really think that he wouldn’t dare to expose the truth to the reporters?

To someone who had nothing at all and had nowhere to go, there was nothing that he would not do.

So what if Ying Jin’s background and ident.i.ty were impressive?

He had reached a point where he had nowhere else to go. There was no point in thinking too much.

He found a phone number on the Internet.

“h.e.l.lo, is this Shanghai Entertainment’s reporter?”

“Yes. You are…?”

“I have proof of Ying Jin’s corruption when she acted as a judge two years ago.”

“Is this true?”

“Yes, because I am that contestant who was involved back then. However, I want… I want one million dollars.”

Yang Jie sniffled. He was a drug addict. However, he had no money at the moment. He didn’t think too much, he just wanted to sell this evidence for a sum of money so he could take drugs to his heart’s content.

“One million is too much. How about a hundred thousand?”

“No. Do you think I’m a beggar?”

“Three hundred thousand, nothing more. If you don’t want it, then forget it. You have to know that this is news from two years ago. Even if it is exposed now, it won’t create much of an impact.”

Yang Jie wanted to refuse. However, that tormenting drug addiction was causing him to crumble.

“Alright, alright, I’ll take it.”

…

In a certain luxurious hotel in Shanghai.

“Sister Ying, that guy from two years ago looked for you?” Zhao Li was sitting on the sofa. She was in a gloomy mood. Her heart was heavy. She had no idea how things had changed so much for her since she had arrived in Shanghai.

And Sister Ying was supposed to leave Shanghai. However, because of this incident, she stayed.

Ying Jin smoked a cigarette. “Mmm, he contacted me. He’s really sc.u.m. He asked for twenty thousand for him to keep his mouth shut.”

Zhao Li was taken aback and she looked furious. “He actually said that?” But then, she said worriedly, “Sister Ying, what would happen if he tells the reporters?”

Ying Jin was blinded by self-confidence. “Don’t worry, as long as he isn’t stupid, he should know what to do. Back then, he was able to pay five million, which means he doesn’t lack money. But if he dares to oppose me, I’ll make sure he loses everything.”

Zhao Li heaved a sigh of relief. She believed in Sister Ying because Sister Ying was that capable.

She felt that as long as that person wasn’t dumb, he would not do such a thing.

Of course, they had no idea that Yang Jie really had nothing left. He had even become addicted to drugs. When he went crazy like this, he wouldn’t think that much.

After contacting Shanghai TV’s reporter, Yang Jie contacted several other news agencies.

There was no way he was only going to sell this important piece of news to only one news agency. He had to sell it to several agencies and earn even more money.

Three hundred thousand.

Two hundred thousand.

A hundred thousand.

In the end, he even sold it for fifty thousand.

If Ying Jin and Lin Fan found out about this, they would definitely vomit blood.

One cannot be so shameless but also must have a certain standard.

Several days pa.s.sed.

Ratings for ‘Strongest Heavenly Voice” stayed at around 4.85%. It couldn’t get much higher and at times, it fell back down to around 4.352%.

However, the people of Shanghai TV were already content. They were exceptionally pleased.

This was the peak results that they had never achieved before.

In these few episodes, Zhao Li had been flamed by Lin Fan so much that she was falling apart. However, as a mentor, she had to endure it. She could only go home and smash things up in a frenzy in order to console herself.

In the morning of this day.

Something major happened.

Everyone who was watching the news stared at it with their mouths gaping.

Meanwhile, when Ying Jin saw the news, she was so frightened that her face turned pale.
