Chapter 252: Is It Good to Be Scolded?

Under the guidance of Zhu Chenwei, Li Chuan took out his mobile phone and opened Weibo.

No. 13 on the Weibo hot search list: [Mr. Sen's company wants to build a building]

"!"

At the first glance of the hot search title, Li Chuan couldn't help but burst into a foul language.

With his previous experience, he was keenly aware that this was not a good thing.

He paused for a moment and clicked on the topic page.

I just saw a hot search, an Internet celebrity who brought goods through live broadcasts, spent 200 million to buy land before, and now he wants to spend 150 million to build a building...... This is too exaggerated, right, what's wrong with the current society? Why are influencers so rich?

ใ€โ€ฆโ€ฆใ€‘

Li Chuan flipped through several Weibo posts on the topic page, and his heart suddenly cooled half.

Just looking at the content of these Weibo posts, the angle is relatively objective, but the reaction of ordinary netizens is not like this...... In the comment area, the pot has already exploded.

[It's so rich! ใ€‘

[-I don't understand, why can a small Internet celebrity make so much money? ใ€‘

ใ€-Little Internet celebrity?ใ€‘ What are you talking about? ใ€‘

[-Don't be hard black, Mr. Sen is one of the best Internet celebrities on the whole network...... It's normal for big Internet celebrities to make a lot of money. ใ€‘

[-Normal?] Now the salary of a university professor is only more than 10,000 yuan, and after working all his life, his savings are not necessarily a fraction of his, do you think this is normal? ใ€‘

[-Science and technology personnel are still squeezing the subway and making a down payment, a group of Internet celebrities are rich in oil, is it really Internet celebrities rejuvenating the country? ใ€‘

[-University professors also have a ...... that earn a lot of money]

[-In any industry, if you do the top, you will make money...... Mr. Sen is one of the top Internet celebrities in the country, are those university professors with a salary of more than 10,000 yuan one of the top university professors in the country? ใ€‘

[-Top university professors and scientific and technological personnel, there is no shortage of money. ใ€‘

[Have you paid your taxes?] ใ€‘

[-There are so many tubes!] ใ€‘

ใ€-What's wrong?ใ€‘ Can't anyone ask? ใ€‘

[-Paying taxes is the duty of every citizen, and the public has the right to supervise it. ใ€‘

[-It's time for the tax department to go and check the accounts!] ใ€‘

[-Reminder: The company's purchase of land and building buildings are operating expenses and do not need to pay taxes. ใ€‘

ใ€-Reasonable tax avoidance? ใ€‘

ใ€-Strict Inspection!ใ€‘ Definitely there is a problem!

ใ€‘

[-The current Internet celebrities are really good, all kinds of tax avoidance. ใ€‘

[Internet celebrities will rule the world!] ใ€‘

ใ€-Too much (laughs)ใ€‘

[-Where is it excessive?] Is it strange that today's Internet celebrities make more money than listed companies, and rule the world? ใ€‘

[-Awkward black.] ใ€‘

ใ€-Mr. Mori's dog?ใ€‘ It's so dedicated. ใ€‘

[-Roll Nyima's! ใ€‘

[I feel that he is richer than a star.] ใ€‘

[-Remove the "feeling", a hundred stars don't have any money for him! ใ€‘

[-Exaggeration. ใ€‘

[-It's not an exaggeration, the salary of the eighteenth-tier starlet is not higher than that of ordinary white-collar workers, only those first-line stars can make a lot of money. ใ€‘

[-A-list star, he should be richer than him. ใ€‘

[-No money without him.] ใ€‘

[-I haven't heard of any first-line star who can spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy land and build buildings. ใ€‘

[-If they don't buy land or build buildings, it doesn't mean they don't have money, just because they don't need it. ใ€‘

[-A-list stars are really not as rich as him (covering their faces and laughing)]

ใ€-How is that possible?ใ€‘ Which A-list star doesn't have hundreds of millions of assets now? ใ€‘

ใ€-๏ผŸ๏ผŸ๏ผŸ Who do you listen to? ใ€‘

[-Hundreds of millions? Don't you have a concept of money? ใ€‘

[These Internet celebrities with goods are almost done with the entity. ใ€‘

[-It is recommended that the state ban these Internet celebrities, especially those who bring goods. ใ€‘

ใ€-Internet celebrities with goods?ใ€‘ A group of social moths, sucking the blood of entities every day. ใ€‘

What is an entity? Did the goods that Mr. Mori brought come out of thin air? The factory does not produce, how can he sell it? He is also helping the factory by selling goods, and the factory is not an entity? Are you guys who open shops and rent shops considered entities? ใ€‘

[-Come on, sooner or later, the country will be plagued by these Internet celebrities! ใ€‘

[The most annoying thing about these Internet celebrities, they have no culture and no quality, they shout every day, just like clowns. ใ€‘

ใ€-I laughed, do you really know Mr. Sen?ใ€‘ ใ€‘

[-Trivia: Mr. Sen is a 2018 graduate of Zhejiang Provincial University. ใ€‘

[-Really? ใ€‘

[-I can really blow it, I also return Zhejiang Provincial University, why don't you say Tsinghua University and Peking University? ] ใ€‘

[-Mr. Sen originally graduated from Zhejiang University (covering his face and laughing)]

[-If you don't understand, go to Baidu, don't be embarrassed here. ใ€‘

[-Mr. Sen is indeed a graduate of Zhejiang University...... It is really powerful for high-achieving students to be Internet celebrities, and it is estimated that there is no way to make such a large scale in such a short period of time if they are replaced by those ordinary Internet celebrities. ใ€‘

[Mr. Mori has so many dogs, it's really filial piety (laughs) to death for me.] ใ€‘

[-I see you like a dog.] ใ€‘

[-The dog is here again? Call the master twice. ใ€‘

[-It is not difficult to admit that others are excellent. ใ€‘

[-Filial piety (laughs) killed me.] ใ€‘

[-You are the real dog who looks down on people, you can't earn a few dollars a day, you are tired every day. ใ€‘

How much can you earn? Mr. Sen earns so much money, will he give you a point? I also helped him talk, and I don't know how my brain grows. ใ€‘

ใ€โ€ฆโ€ฆใ€‘

These are some of the comments on this incident.

After reading this, Li Chuan felt really uncomfortable.

Although there are many fans speaking for him, the overall public opinion situation is still negative.

There's no way around it, who made him rich.

In the current situation of public opinion, having money is the original sin!

In 2017, the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward for the first time that the main contradiction in China's society has changed from "the contradiction between the people's growing material and cultural needs and backward social production" to "the contradiction between the people's growing needs for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development".

How should this sentence be understood?

To put it simply, in the past, people did not have enough food and clothing, and their basic living needs were difficult to guarantee, so the main energy was focused on eating, drinking, housing and transportation, but with the development of society, people were fed and warm, and their basic living needs were met.

What is "not suffering from inequality"?

To put it bluntly, the psychology of "hating the rich" is very popular, it doesn't matter if you are poor, but it is uncomfortable to watch others get rich...... This is not an isolated case, but a problem that exists in society as a whole.

Mr. Sen is an Internet celebrity, famous and well-known, but he has no background and low social status...... It's unavoidable.

Li Chuan can't stop it, because this is a problem at the level of social form, and it can't be solved by spending some money and hiring some water army.

If it was so easy to solve, then the country would have taken action a long time ago, so would it have to wait until now?

Therefore, in the face of these negative public opinions, he can only stare dryly.

To be honest, he now regrets making the announcement.

In the previous meeting, they discussed only one focus, that is, "how to build the headquarters building and live broadcast base of Miki Media", but they ignored the problem of social form, and now in retrospect, this is obviously a big mistake.

However, it is too late to say this...... The result has been cast, and no amount of talk can be reversed.

"Mr. Sen, do you need me to go to the event and bring down the hot search?"

Zhu Chenwei stood aside and asked tentatively.

"I want to think about it."

Li Chuan leaned back in his chair, frowned, and closed his eyes in contemplation.

It is indeed a good idea to drop the hot search.

Although they cannot reverse the social situation, they can prevent the situation from further escalating by reducing the heat...... It's also a way of PR.

However, there are some problems with this approach.

The problem is not money...... It will definitely cost a lot of money to drop the hot search, but Li Chuan is not short of money, tens of millions, he can get it casually, so he doesn't care about this little cost.

What he is thinking about now is, should he take the initiative to lower the hot search?

The reason why he thinks this way is because "Miki Media Building Building" is on the hot search, which is not entirely a bad thing.

Although there is a lot of negative public opinion on the Internet about this matter, most of these negative public opinions are directed at Mr. Mori, not Miki Media.

If this matter becomes a big problem, it will also be a disguised propaganda for Miki Media.

Nowadays, there are only a handful of M companies with their own headquarters buildings and live broadcast bases, and Miki Media can rely on this matter to make a name for itself in the country and let everyone in the Internet celebrity industry know: Miki Media is a very powerful large-scale M company.

Once this concept spreads, it will attract more and more outstanding talents to join, and when the time comes, the company's development will go to the next level.

Moreover, Miki Media's influence is great, and it is also a great help to Mr. Mori.

Previously, Li Chuan had always wanted to build himself into an "entrepreneur", so he often advertised himself as the "founder of Miki Media".

However, this type of propaganda is not very effective.

Why?

Because Miki Media's influence is not enough.

Many people have never heard of Miki Media and think that it is a small company...... In modern society, there are bosses everywhere, the founder of a small company, what is there to show off?

Therefore, Li Chuan promoted himself as the "founder of Miki Media" and portrayed himself as an entrepreneur, which is fundamentally untenable.

But what if Miki Media's influence grows?

Then it's a different story.

If everyone thinks that Miki Media is a big company, then Li Chuan, as the founder of a large company, has a fairly solid foothold as an entrepreneur, and the effect will undoubtedly be much better when the time comes.

Therefore, the "Miki Media Building Building" incident has made a big fuss, which has certain benefits for Miki Media and Mr. Sen.

At the same time, Li Chuan also thought of one point, that is, the matter of "he has money" cannot be kept hidden, and it will be exposed sooner or later.

Considering what will happen in the coming years, early exposure is better than late exposure.

Why?

Because the epidemic is going to be in a while.

The arrival of the epidemic has had a very big impact on the global economy, and China is no exception.

Due to frequent lockdowns in China, many people are unable to work normally, resulting in their own economic bankruptcy...... In 2022, there are countless examples of people who cannot afford to pay their rent or mortgage, resulting in displacement and foreclosure.

At that time, people were full of complaints, and the psychology of "hating the rich" also reached its peak.

If Li Chuan was exposed as "very rich" at that time, the spittle of netizens would drown him!

At present, the epidemic has not yet arrived, the social and economic development is relatively good, and many people, even if they "hate the rich", they are not so extreme, after all, their own lives are also very good.

Therefore, he is now exposed as "very rich", relatively speaking, the price is still relatively small.

From that point of view, this is a good thing.

'The epidemic seems to have broken out in January 2020. โ€™

Li Chuan groaned secretly.

In January 2020, there is still almost a year to go.

For a year, he can patiently build a persona, establish an identity as an "entrepreneur" for himself, slowly save his reputation, and strive to make the public accept the fact that "he is a rich man...... As long as he does this, he does not have to fear that he will become a target when the epidemic comes.

After thinking about this, Li Chuan had already made up his mind.

"Don't worry about the hot search, let it ferment."

"Huh? This...... Will it work? Zhu Chenwei looked worried.

"It's fine."

Li Chuan waved his hand and said: "I'm just building a building, and I'm not doing anything illegal and undisciplined, netizens are willing to scold, just let them scold, and it won't affect me anything." โ€

"But ......"

"Don't."

Li Chuan directly interrupted: "Just listen to me, you don't have to worry about this." โ€

"That'...... All right. โ€

Zhu Chenwei was puzzled, but in the face of Li Chuan's order, he couldn't refuse, so he had to nod his head.

"Mr. Sen, that's nothing, I'll leave first."

After Zhu Chenwei finished speaking, he was about to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Li Chuan stopped Zhu Chenwei and instructed him: "You call Wang Chengyong and several people in charge of the e-commerce department, and I will hold a meeting for them." โ€

"Oh, okay."
