Chapter 1475 - Wind Catcher
Chapter 1475 Wind Catcher
Ai Lei’s eyes were open. Her expression was firm, her tone was forceful, and her chest was held high.
If Meng Chao had not been involved, he would have believed her.
Meng Chao closed his eyes and rubbed the bridge of his nose. He was too lazy to talk to this woman who had no integrity, credibility, or professional ethics.
He carefully searched his memory for information related to the “Wind Catcher.”
Thanks to the article “Nightmarish Love,” Meng Chao had a good understanding of this self-media’s situation.
If gossip was also considered news, then Ai Lei was a dedicated “journalist.”
Her reporting style, just like the name “Wind Catcher,” had always been known for making up stories, adding fuel to fire, sensationalizing things, and having no bottom line.
The contents of her reports were often based on various unknown “truths, secret history, and inside information” on the circle of superhumans, especially dirty gossip about what was in their pants.
Such things as the change in the love of a veteran powerhouse, gossip about a rising star, the stories of superheroes and seventy-two female confidants that had to be told, and so on. Every time people saw the person involved, their lungs would explode with anger.
The problem was that many users would fall for such a trick.
The more shocking the words were, the more attention and traffic they would attract. They would make a lot of money for themselves and the platform, and they would be pampered and protected by the platform.
And the extraordinaires, because of their identity, could not really get involved with a stinky fish like the “Wind catcher.”.
For example, would Meng Chao and Lu siya sue the “Wind catcher”for violating their reputation rights because of the article “Nightmare of Love”?
This kind of Bullsh * t lawsuit took a long time, but on the other hand, the truth was not clear at all.
Even if it was clear in the end, what was the point of having the ‘wind catcher’apologize in public?
The traffic of the other party had increased tenfold because of the lawsuit, but Meng Chao’s side was still covered in mud. How could he wash it clean!
Speaking of which, it was now the era of the eyeball economy. There were all kinds of media, and there were countless so-called “Journalists”who specialized in the third way. No matter how exaggerated the story was, they didn’t even need to blink, they could make up a hundred and eighty articles without repeating themselves.
It was a cliché to say that Meng Chao and Lu Siya were dating. Meng Chao remembered that there was another article that said that he was the illegitimate son of the “Martial God”Lei Zongchao and had the support of the entire martial god temple’s abundant resources, his leveling speed was only so fast, including the word “Chao’in Meng Chao’s name. It was all in memory of Lei Zongchao. What the F* ck was going on?!
Under such intense competition, Al lei’s “Wind catcher”was still able to carve out a bloody path in the smelly puddle of gossip, leaving a deep impression on Meng Chao.
He had to admit that this woman was also a talent.
Millions of fans, on Earth, were certainly not enough.
But don’t forget, Dragon City only had a total of tens of millions of people.
It was equivalent to 10% of the citizens, all of whom were readers of Ai lei.
Even if the data was flooded, judging from the number of comments and content below Meng Chao’s series of reports on “Wind catcher”, this woman’s influence among the gossipy ordinary citizens was also quite astonishing, in the jargon, it was “Extremely high user activity and extremely sticky”.
Moreover, Meng Chao believed that in order to run such a low-class “News Studio”, Ai Lei could have no character, credibility, and integrity.
But she must have a large amount of inside information and the channels through which she could get inside information.
She must have a lot of friends and informants among the various sects and schools.
If Meng Chao didn’t intend to reveal his identity for the time being and asked for help from any force.
Such a character seemed to have her uses,
too?
“I remember that you’re mainly in the field of emotional information. Aren’t you doing quite
well?”
At this point, Meng Chao’s gaze returned to Ai lei. “How did you change your style and go outside the monster mountain range to dig up the secrets of the Universal Group?”
“Senior, you don’t Know?”
Ai Lei was a little surprised, and her eyes flashed. “There seems to be no reason for senior not to know. Nowadays, all the major platforms in Dragon City don’t allow discussion of emotional topics involving extraordinaires, especially senior powerhouses!”
Meng Chao knew that Ai Lei’s sense of smell was very sharp.
There must be some sort of flaw in his question.
But he could not care much about it and could only continue asking, “Why?”
“Because most girls want to marry extraordinaires. Even if they don’t have a status, as long as they can get the extraordinaire’s favor, it’s good enough. If they really can’t find an extraordinaire, they would rather not get married and spend their time and energy on family life on their own cultivation. This makes ordinary people unable to find a wife and spend their days in low spirits, Grumbling.”
Ai lei said, “Under such circumstances, do you think it’s appropriate for us to continue reporting on how wonderful the love lives of extraordinaires are, and how beautiful the women around us are, constantly stimulating ordinary people?
“The major platforms are under pressure and have locked down the flow of the extraordinaires’love topics. I have no choice but to start from scratch.”
“I see.”
Meng Chao continued to ask, “However, isn’t it a little too dangerous for you to dig deep into the secrets of the Universal Corporation?”
“If it’s not dangerous, how are we going to earn money?”
Ai lei said, “There’s no point in messing around. If we want to do it, we have to do it with a big shot like the Universal Corporation. If I really manage to pull this off, we will become famous overnight and have financial freedom. We can even retire!”
Meng Chao could not help but laugh. He asked again, “You’re so stubborn. Aren’t you afraid of Death?”
This time, AI lei gave a different answer than truth and justice. “Yes, of course I’m afraid. But if I’m not killed by Universal Corporation, I’ll die of poverty.
“Rather than die of poverty, I’d rather be killed by someone else.
“After all, dying of poverty is a lifelong thing. Killing someone is just a matter of time
“Are you really that short of money?”
Meng Chao was doubtful. “I remember that your ‘wind catcher’has made quite a name for himself. You must have earned quite a lot in the past two years, right?”
“Senior, you are not from our circle. You Don’t know how fierce our competition is and how hard it is to earn money.”
Ai lei sighed bitterly, “In our business, we make a lot of money at a loss. Most of our income is used to buy traffic even before it is warmed up in our arms. If you don’t buy traffic for three days, all the users will run away. No matter what you write, no dog will read what you write!
“In addition, I’m different from my peers. I have character, credibility, and professional ethics. Even if it’s the most common gossip, my peers are just doing it behind closed doors and talking nonsense. I will pay for my own expenses and conduct an investigation. I will clarify all the clues and details around the parties involved and try my best to write good articles that are reasonable, flesh and blood, shocking people, and other organs!
“As the saying goes, ‘The Devil is in the details’. and the details are all polished with real gold and silver!
“More than half a year ago, in order to let the ‘wind catcher’rise to the next level and allow the number of his fans to surpass ten million and become a real head, I almost went bankrupt and obtained a batch of very exciting and authentic insider news.
“Just as I was about to release a few shocking pieces of news, shocking bad news came. The major platforms joined hands and locked down the topic of extraordinary people’s emotions. This batch of insider news of mine was all thrown into my hands and was not worth a single cent.
“Up until now, I still owe a huge debt. If I don’t take a gamble, how can I make a comeback?”
“Then you really deserve it!”
Meng Chao sighed and said, “I really want to believe your words, but there’s another crucial point that I can’t figure out no matter how hard I try.
“Just now, director Wang of the Universal Corporation said that the general manager of the Universal Corporation’s project stationed at Red Creek Creek Creek Valley, Shen Yulin, accepted your exclusive interview?”
“Yes.”
Ai lei nodded and pointed at Meng Chao’s palm. “This memory chip contains my interview recording. Senior, if you don’t believe me, you can listen to it and see if it’s Shen Yulin’s voice.”
“I believe you.”
Meng Chao said, “I just don’t understand. Huanyu group should have a very well-established interview system. At Shen Yulin’s level, no matter which media outlet he accepts an interview with, he will investigate the other party’s background clearly in advance. Even the interview content will be communicated in advance to ensure that it conforms to Huanyu group’s caliber.
“The light of Dragon City is an old large-scale media group
“It must be working closely with Huanyu Group.
“Their brains might even be eating and drinking at the same table.
“How can you approach Shen Yulin by pretending to be a person from the light of Dragon City with a fake press card?”
Ai Lei was silent.
Her eyes rolled over and over again.
“You’re a smart person. You should be able to understand the current situation.”
Meng Chao said, “Even if you’re not afraid of death and are only afraid of being poor, the Huanyu Group is also a large company that abides by the law. It’s impossible for them to do such a thing.”.
“But based on the fact that you impersonated a reporter from ‘light of Dragon City’, the legal department of the Huanyu Group and the legal department of ‘Light of Dragon City’have joined forces to wipe you out within the industry. It’s easier than crushing a bug.”
Ai Lei’s face was pale.
Meng Chao’s words clearly hit her right where it hurt.
Her expression was even uglier than when she had fallen from the 100-meter cliff.
“Yes, it’s the informant.”
Ai Lei closed her eyes and gritted her teeth. “The informant helped me get an interview with Shen Yulin. According to the informant, I don’t have to worry about anything. I just need to test Shen Yulin.”
“So, this informant is the key!”
Meng Chao’s gaze was as sharp as lightning.
He asked ai lei a few more questions.
He gradually figured out the timeline of several events that happened on this stormy night.
First, Ai Lei pretended to be a reporter from the light of Dragon City to interview Shen Yulin.
Not long after, Shen Yulin contacted his superior in the Blood Union.
Then, he appeared by accident and interfered with the blood union’s operation, causing Shen Yulin’s identity to be exposed.
The Blood Union had no choice but to activate the backup plan.
Of course, it could also be that the blood union was prepared to blow up the crystal warehouse from the beginning and only hid it from Shen Yulin.
No matter what, Ai Lei’s interview must have touched Shen Yulin’s sensitive nerve.
Even if it was not the direct cause of the Blood League’s desperation.
At least, it was the fuse and catalyst!
