Chapter 459 - 214: Ming Di: Am I the Pot God? Xiaomi: I’m So Envious!
Despite being completely baffled, Ke Yan instinctively clicked on the trending topic, and saw a video with 2.39 million likes.
Video title: "Yet another fool has snuck in, delivering themselves right to the door!"
"Someone spent 2000 Spirit Stones just to meet me once, there’s something fishy about this..."
"Mr. Chen, you spent 2000..."
"How can there be such foolish people in the Demon Dao, let’s use you to earn more trust from Patriarch Chen, shall we?"
Ke Yan was more confused after watching the video.
What kind of crazy video is this?
Is this some sort of abstract art?
But this abstractness is inexplicable, at least make it understandable, right?
The main issue, how can such a crappy video have over two million likes, while his carefully crafted science knowledge videos have only just over 1,200 likes?
Most importantly, yesterday the Chen Family’s video was so popular, his critique of the Chen Family should have also caught fire, right? Why was the Chen Family’s heat suppressed to give attention to such a crappy video?
Ke Yan opened the comments section, eager to criticize the video, but when he saw the comments, he was suddenly dumbfounded.
"Holy cow, I’m shocked, at first, when I saw the video about Ming Di, I thought the police had caught another criminal, until I saw the notice from Linhe County!"
"Ming Di, seriously, upon seeing the Jingmei police announcement, I want to treat you like a god, in my eyes, you are a god!"
"Ming Di, why not just join Patriarch Chen, being in the Demon Dao isn’t worthwhile, I like how you uphold justice against your own kind!"
"Man, you’re incredible, before you took down single demonic cultivators, now you’ve wiped out a major sect of the Demon Dao!"
"A divine being, after learning the whole story, I kneeled down right away, my girlfriend asked what I was doing, I said worshipping a god!"
"..."
Ke Yan wasn’t an idiot. Seeing these comments, he realized that this video wasn’t as simple as he thought.
He noticed that everyone in the comments section was searching for: "Why is Ming Di being hailed as a deity?" and instinctively clicked on it.
He then saw a video from a comment blogger, which also had over 500,000 likes.
"Many people are familiar with this blogger Ming Di. People first got to know him when he tried to ride the coattails of Patriarch Chen of the Chen Family and got bitten by a Lion-headed Goose. Back then, everyone knew the Patriarch was powerful, having many Chen Family inheritance techniques, but didn’t realize that Ming Di was also a remarkable person..."
"What really made Ming Di famous was when he invested in Shangyuan Village and discovered a human trafficking organization. He reported it to the police and took them down in one go!"
"And previously, in the Premium Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea fraud case, the people behind it thought they were clever and even infiltrated Ming Di’s side, but Ming Di found out and reported it to the police."
"There is even a saying that within the Chen Family, the punishment of evildoers is handled by the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable, while outside at Shangyuan Village, it’s Ming Di who takes care of such matters, and the police just take credit."
"At first, I thought this was an exaggeration, but after seeing the Linhe County news about the Jingmei Group and realizing it was also due to Ming Di, I suddenly found the saying reasonable and quite substantial!"
Ke Yan understood at this point that the video involving Ming Di was connected to some kind of case, also related to the Jingmei Group.
He quickly scrolled to the next video, which left him utterly astonished.
"I initially saw the announcement about the high-ranking officials of Jingmei being arrested in Linhe County with key evidence in the police’s hands. I thought it was an ordinary case, but upon seeing Ming Di’s video, I realized it was more complicated."
"Turns out this Jingmei case was also reported by Ming Di. Let me give everyone a rundown: first, why did Jingmei’s top officials go over to the Chen Family? It’s related to the Chen Family’s Scar Remover Cream, which Ming Di’s video clearly explained."
"Before this, the videos of Patriarch Chen making pills were very popular, certainly catching Jingmei’s attention."
"Moreover, speaking of Jingmei Medical, it is the largest private medical beauty group in the country, and many beauty products for women are from their company."
"Of course, their main business is cosmetic surgery, which has had numerous negative news reports in the past, once even collaborating with nightclubs nationwide to manipulate and induce girls into taking out loans for cosmetic surgery, then exploit them."
"Girls were lured with high-paying jobs like performances or customer service, then brainwashed into thinking they needed minor facial surgery for better job suitability. If they lacked money, they were encouraged to take loans, with assurances they’d repay quickly once employed."
"For the false promise of a high-paying job (actually non-existent positions, later they were told they failed due to job competition or various other reasons), many girls would take loans to undergo surgery."
"And these online loans were secretly managed by Jingmei. Once their surgeries began, the girls were frightened with various excuses, needing new drugs or additional surgeries due to body conditions, prompting more loans."
"At this point, having already undergone surgery, the girls had no options but to continue, eventually accruing huge loans they couldn’t repay, leaving them with no choice but to work in those nightclubs, leading to their downfall!"
