Chapter 85: Chapter 83: It’s too small, the pattern is too small.

Seeing Bi Fang’s self-reproachful expression which didn’t seem feigned, Wang Yongbo was immediately filled with doubt and suspicion. Was this a mockery of himself?

That shouldn’t be the case!

When they first met, Wang Yongbo had a good impression of Bi Fang, a modest and handsome young man, not someone who displayed arrogance because of his talents. Could it be…

That he truly believes these achievements aren’t good?

Wang Yongbo couldn’t understand what kind of bizarre thought process was going on in Bi Fang’s mind, but it also made him shiver inside, with a touch of emotion.

Is this the world of a genius?

He had to admit, the gap between a genius and ordinary people is indeed visible to the naked eye.

While he himself was still complacent about a minor success, had the other party already set off toward a higher peak?

My thinking is too small, my vision too narrow.

So what if the stock price rose, and the company made a few billion?

The future of Wolf Fang is to aim for the top platform in the livestreaming industry!

Bi Fang had no idea that his few words had such a huge impact on Wang Yongbo, causing him to redefine his life goals. At that moment, he was still trying hard to pull his hand out of Wang Yongbo’s grasp.

“Ah, indeed, listening to your words is better than studying for ten years, Mr. Bi. Your ambition is lofty—it is my vision that is limited,” Wang Yongbo said with continuous sighs, holding on even tighter.

Bi Fang: “…”

What did I say that you equated with studying for ten years?

You were just calling me Mr. Bi, and now you’ve changed to calling me Teacher Bi?

Wang Yongbo’s peculiar thought process also suddenly made Bi Fang feel awkward. Was what this balding middle-aged man saying sincere, or was it actually sarcasm? Was it not to express dissatisfaction?

Thinking this, Bi Fang didn’t know whether to withdraw his hand or to keep it there, so he could only smile gracefully as if nothing mattered.

Seeing Bi Fang’s smile, Wang Yongbo knew he had secured his position; he had guessed right. Teacher Bi had deep aspirations and had long stopped caring about such minor successes.

Wang Yongbo felt that when dealing with a genius, it was most important to understand their real thoughts and to go along with their desires.

Ever since Bi Fang’s first livestream was a huge hit, affecting Wolf Fang’s market value positively, Wang Yongbo no longer saw Bi Fang as just a potential talent.

How does the saying go, cutting off a man’s fortune is like killing his parents, so offering a path to wealth is akin to having a second birth from one’s parents, isn’t it?

If the parents are injured, as children, it’s only right to show concern.

It’s not embarrassing.

That’s why Wang Yongbo made a special trip to Mohe, simply to win over people’s hearts. After all, besides treating people sincerely and binding them with emotion, at Wolf Fang, they had no better way to retain top talent. Anything they could offer, Sharks and Tiger Fang could also offer, and only better.

Working in the industry for many years, only Bi Fang could make Wang Yongbo act this way.

After all, he was also busy with work, being the vice president of a publicly listed company. Even so, he still felt some regret that he hadn’t paid regular attention to Bi Fang after signing him. If Bi Fang were lured away by Sharks or Tiger Fang, Wang Yongbo would be so frustrated he might spit blood.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too late.

Apart from showing concern, Wang Yongbo also brought good news.

“Teacher Bi, considering the uniqueness of this livestream and also to promote your righteous and courageous spirit, our platform has made a decision. The income from this event’s gifts will not be split according to the typical seventy-thirty, it will all go to you, even taxes, we will cover for you!” Wang Yongbo patted his chest with an air of integrity.

Bi Fang was stunned, not taking a penny and covering the taxes?

Although he hadn’t calculated exactly, the income from the gifts received during this livestream was at least three million or more. Even if it was just thirty percent, that would still be close to one million. Wolf Fang was willing to give all that up? And to cover the costs additionally?

The tax rate on livestream gifts is not low, and Bi Fang was clear about that. In this deal, Wolf Fang not only earned nothing but was also losing a significant amount. Considering that Wang Yongbo had hurried over this morning, he must have discussed it with the directors last night, and Wang Yongbo had surely exerted a great effort in this matter.

Wolf Fang is really something!

Bi Fang felt his judgment was really not off. Wolf Fang TV has the right idea; it seemed he really thought wrong before. He also politely replied, “I still have to thank you, President Wang.”

Who would think they have too much money?

He was easy to talk to; as long as others were courteous, he was willing to return the favor.

“I should be thanking you. This small amount of money is nothing compared to the increase in market value you brought to Wolf Fang. I just never expected the first live broadcast to be such a success,” he said.

“Increase in market value?” Bi Fang couldn’t believe his ears and pointed at himself, “Because of me?”

“Of course, it’s because of Mr. Bi. Could there be any other reason?” Wang Yongbo replied.

Wang Yongbo was also amazed. A single live broadcast could stimulate company market value—who would believe that? But it was the truth.

This wasn’t just a talented steed; this was a Bugatti Veyron!

Single-handedly boosting Wolf Fang’s market cap!

Impressive!

Truly impressive!

“Since yesterday, your video has been spreading like wildfire online. Since you’ve been sleeping, you have no idea about any of it,” Wu Mingtao suddenly chimed in—he knew the whole story. Ever since they had returned to civilization and finally had a phone signal, Bi Fang’s heroic act had been dominating the screens.

“Mr. Bi is unaware?” Wang Yongbo was taken aback.

“How could I know without a phone?” Bi Fang spread his hands out; he never carried a phone with him during Wilderness Survivalist activities because that was professional.

“Well, that’s true. After all, Mr. Bi’s survival skills are genuine and countless times stronger than those imitators!” Wang Yongbo flattered him effortlessly. Flattery never goes out of style. Then, he pulled out his phone, opened Weibo, and showed Bi Fang the top trending topic, “Mr. Bi, you’ve truly broken out of the circle this time. The next live broadcast will definitely be an even bigger hit!”

Faced with Wang Yongbo’s attitude, Bi Fang was somewhat at a loss for words.

There he was, a CEO of a public company, acting like a sycophant straight out of a novel, with absolutely no airs.

In fact, Bi Fang was really misjudging Wang Yongbo. Acting lofty was all about who you were dealing with.

Had he asked the office staff at Wolf Fang Headquarters, the description of Wang Yongbo would have been quite different.

One could say that anyone who could hold such a position was astute, being flexible was basic practice, and in Wang Yongbo’s case, he didn’t consider it acting inferior—it was “being approachable.”

Meanwhile, Bi Fang was browsing Weibo and noticed that several of the trending topics were related to him.

“Shock! A man does this to a woman in the wilderness!”

“Daughter of Shenhua Group’s CEO in wilderness peril!”

“Host of Wilderness Survivalist encounters a pack of wolves!”

“The reason behind Wolf Fang’s rise in market value turns out to be him!”

Bi Fang raised an eyebrow. Had the world of UC Shock Department merged with Weibo?

“And there’s more from B Island!”

Wang Yongbo showed Bi Fang B Island, where one video thumbnail depicted the moment after Bi Fang had defeated the wolf pack, with the wolves retreating and the sunrise over the mountain top.

It was like something out of a movie, and it had over a million views.

And that wasn’t even the hottest video.

It appeared to be a clip recorded by an audience member from the live room. Bi Fang clicked to watch and found the editing to be rather good.

You have to admit, it looked quite cool.

It was indeed him, any other person wouldn’t have had the same effect.

Bi Fang wasn’t boasting without reason; he was as handsome in this life as he had been in his previous one. If he had gone into the entertainment industry, there would be no room for other stars.

“Including major forums, it’s all about your recent broadcast and the previous one’s edited videos, especially on Douyin. I don’t know about others, but whenever I scroll through a dozen videos or so, your live broadcast cuts are bound to be there.”

“This time, it’s super viral!”

Wang Yongbo’s tone contained uncontrollable joy.
