Chapter 82 Part 2 一 Redefining Group Pet.
The initial user, those words, was quite unfamiliar to the vast audience.
Those who knew this person were from the finance and business circles.
Not long after, industry professionals mentioned this person on Weibo.
【@EighteenViewsOnBusiness: The initial user, I’m sure most of you are not unfamiliar with, especially those who know Ruan Yōu. I still can’t believe it, so let me introduce “him” [the initial user] to those who don’t know.
The initial user is Ruan Yōu’s private investment advisor, as revealed by Ruan Yōu herself. Later, with the help of the initial user, Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan invested in some projects in the entertainment industry under the name “YouXuan Investment.” Do you remember the interactive short drama that was popular a while ago? That’s one of the projects of YouXuan Investment. At that time, this interactive short drama was not well-received, and besides this interactive drama, there were several movies and variety shows that were not considered promising at the time, but have now made a lot of money for “YouXuan Investment.”
The entertainment industry and investment circles believe that this success is undoubtedly thanks to Ruan Yōu’s investment advisor一一the initial user.
With the help of the initial user, Ruan Yōu could enjoy the pleasure of spending money, invest freely, and no matter what she invested in, she always made a substantial profit. What’s most shocking is the initial user’s ability to see the future trends of funds and stocks.
The initial user started providing investment advice to other entrepreneurs about a month ago.
I was fortunate to connect with “him.” In his moments, he often shared stocks he found promising, and every time I bought them, I made a profit without any losses. When I chat with some entrepreneur friends, we often talk about him.
He always points to the stocks that will rise, never making a mistake, and is revered by many entrepreneurs as the “Stock God.”
Later, everyone started calling him Lao Chu.
In Lao Chu’s moments, besides stocks, funds, and financial news, he often mentioned his daughter. From these moments, Lao Chu is undoubtedly a doting father. A few days ago, he posted a retirement announcement on Weibo, saying he’s ready to go home and spend time with his daughter and won’t accept any more advisory requests.
In summary, this person is remarkable, with observation skills that rival those of top family heirs. We used to call him Lao Chu, thinking he was a middle-aged man who loved his daughter. The fact that he could collaborate with Ruan Yōu was his honor.
Now… what Lu Jin just told in the livestream that the “potbellied middle-aged man and daughter-loving” person I imagined is actually Ruan Yōu herself.
Several WeChat groups exploded.】
The explanation of user @EighteenViewsOnBusiness was clear.
The audience in the livestream room exploded.
Good guy.
The so-called middle-aged man turned out to be Ruan Yōu, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, and the so-called daughter slave was just a persona created by Ruan Yōu.
【Ruan Yōu is indeed someone who has been in the entertainment industry. She understands personas.】
【Isn’t this just like the legendary “I’m playing myself”(?】
Before long, many entrepreneurs who had been “deceived” by Ruan Yōu posted chat screenshots with her online.
【@Li Fuming: No wonder last Lunar New Year, I wished Lao Chu a happier and more prosperous life, joking that he shouldn’t turn into a pot-bellied middle-aged president like the rest of us. Instead, he should become the “old” rich and handsome man who can make the most money in our circle. He sent me an eye-rolling emoji, and at the time, I was puzzled as to why he would do that to me. The “old rich and handsome man” is the ultimate pursuit and sincerest blessing in our age group. Now I understand. [bitter][bitter]】
Li Fuming was the president of a southern clothing brand. He was friendly and had consulted with the initial user several times, benefiting greatly. He once considered the initial user as a master.
The melon-eaters laughed so hard they thought they’d die.
【In the entertainment industry, when a star’s persona collapses, fans are wounded, but in this case of a persona collapse, aside from business bosses, no one is harmed.】
【Hahaha, Ruan Yōu is the eldest lady standing at the top of the pyramid. Only she has the qualifications to teach these bosses how to do things.】
Apart from Li Fuming, several other “victims” joined Weibo to make accusations.
【What’s the big deal with Old Rich and Handsome man’s blessings? Last time, I asked Lao Chu to be my master, and I mentioned it several times. Her exact words in refusing me were, “Lao Bai, you’re fifty now, leave the opportunities for the young people, don’t get involved.”】
【You were all talking about collaborating with Lao Chu, but I was the only one who secretly agonized every time because of the trendy emojis and trendy quotes he sent. Last time, I commented in the chat, marveling at how he could have such a good relationship with his daughter. Learning young people’s slang every day must have been tiring, but I couldn’t do it. What’s ‘Juan Wang1‘, ‘YYDS’, I didn’t understand them. Because of Lao Chu’s unique trendy quotes, I gathered seven or eight friends and created a group to exchange and learn internet slang every day.】
【Forced to learn internet slang, under Lao Chu’s guidance, I unwittingly became the ‘kings of internet slang.’】
. . . . .
Under Lao Chu’s leadership, several bosses had already become proficient in internet slang and were just as humorous as the younger generation.
The melon-eaters were delighted.
【I unilaterally declare that today’s happiness is brought to us by the victimized bosses.】
【Those bosses were deceived by Lao Chu and, under his leadership became the ‘kings of internet slang’. How come this is so funny.】
【Hahaha, it’s clear that everyone really wants to collaborate with Lao Chu.】
【So, Ruan Yōu is the group favorite among the top wealthy members, and Lao Chu is the ‘group favorite’ in the business circle (?】
【Haha, I’m laughing to death, please stop.】
【In conclusion, Ruan Yōu’s status as the group’s favorite is unshakable.】
. . . . .
After this incident, everyone understood how it all unfolded, and whenever they watched Ruan Yōu on the livestream, they couldn’t help but picture her as a ‘pot-bellied middle-aged man.’
In Gu Fuchen’s lounge, an eerie silence still lingered.
Ruan Yōu stared at Lu Jin without moving, her hands in her pockets.
“Lu Jin, are you really not doing this on purpose?”
Jiang Huai teased, “If Lu Jin wanted to be intentional, he would have to play chess and think about how to deliberately target you at the same time. He would do two things at once. You’ve overestimated his IQ.”
“He also overestimated his own IQ,” Fu Jiazhan added with a light laugh.
“Those who lacked the ability shouldn’t multitask,” Gu Fuchen sarcastically remarked suddenly.
In an instant, Lu Jin became the target of everyone’s complaints, demonstrating what it meant to be a victim of group bullying through actions.
Ruan Yōu looked up to the sky and sighed, with a look of despair.
While others chatted and teased each other, Qi Zhiyan didn’t participate; she sat on the couch, head bowed, looking at her phone.
“Ruan Yōu, do you want to check the netizens’ reaction?”
Qi Zhiyan was completely focused on their current livestream, and the screen was filled with layers of barrage comments. Just from the number of barrages, you could tell how lively it was online.
Ruan Yōu immediately covered her ears. “I don’t want to hear it, don’t want to hear those people chanting sutras2.”
Her head moved like a tambourine, and her alert almond-shaped eyes watched Qi Zhiyan’s direction carefully.
【Haha, so cute】
【No matter what, you have to listen!】
【Don’t worry, Miss, everyone was praising you.】
【Yōuyōu, hurry and pull Ruan Chenchen down from the position of the Bozhan president. This family can’t do without you】
The livestream chat and Weibo posts were filled with mentions of this incident.
Even the previous ‘victims’ bosses, were teasing Ruan Yōu to step up quickly.
【Ruan Chenchen was a goofball, while Ruan Yōu was the one truly carrying the family.】
【Many Bozhan employees had already reposted the Weibo asking Ruan Yōu to rise to power. (?】
【I thought Ruan Yōu was just a salted fish rich young lady, but it turned out that she was a “middle-aged man” who fooled the bosses around, a legend who stood at the top of the business world.】
Ruan Yōu read the comments online and shook her head faster than ever.
“They must be trying to harm me.”
