C5 He Had Won a Lottery?

Chairman Zhao and Faang Cheng arrived at the sales office. Chairman Zhao had someone fetch the contract.

As they waited, Faang Cheng, looking puzzled, inquired, "Chairman Zhao, you usually have no trouble selling properties like this. Why offer it to me in a package deal?"

Chairman Zhao exhaled deeply and replied, "Alas, we're in a bind. The company has embarked on a major project, and we're experiencing a bit of a cash flow issue."

"Lucky for me, I ran into you. I was at my wit's end!"

Still perplexed, Faang Cheng pressed, "But how did you know I could step in to help? Is it because of the few properties I just purchased? In comparison to your building, that's just a drop in the ocean!"

Chairman Zhao burst into laughter. "Not at all, my friend! You're not aware, but you're quite the internet sensation. That auction of yours, with over eighty million yuan and a Lamborghini? You're well-known online!"

"It was your car that tipped me off to your presence in the area!"

It dawned on Faang Cheng then.

It was all due to the auction!

What a stroke of luck that was, or he might have missed out on this opportunity.

Soon after, a salesperson arrived with the contract, giving Faang Cheng a curious glance.

Dressed in clothes totaling no more than five hundred yuan, Faang Cheng wasn't the typical client they'd entertain. It wasn't snobbery; they simply gauged a customer's purchasing power at a glance. Had Chairman Zhao not personally escorted him, they might have dismissed it as a prank.

Faang Cheng used two hundred shock points to have the system scan the contract, ensuring it was problem-free, then signed his name without hesitation.

Chairman Zhao, astonished, asked, "Mr. Faang, aren't you going to check the price?"

With a hearty laugh, Faang Cheng responded, "No need. I gave my word to Chairman Zhao, and I'll honor it, no matter the cost."

Chairman Zhao bowed with his hands clasped, "You have my respect, brother! I'm not one to take advantage."

"The building's market value is 3.2 billion yuan, but for you, let's round it down to an even 3 billion."

"By the way, I'm throwing in all the parking spaces as well!"

"Much appreciated!"

Faang Cheng accessed Zhao's Group's bank account and completed the money transfer through the system.

Soon after, Chairman Zhao gave him a call.

Once the call ended, Chairman Zhao regarded Faang Cheng with an odd look.

"Brother Faang, you're quite the young achiever, paying in full like that!"

Chairman Zhao had assumed Faang Cheng would only send a deposit at first and discuss the balance later.

But to his surprise, Faang Cheng had paid the entire sum.

After a warm farewell from Chairman Zhao, Faang Cheng exited the sales office.

Outside, Aunt Zhao had been waiting and witnessed the scene, realizing Faang Cheng had managed to purchase the luxury building that her family could only dream of.

She was filled with regret for how she had treated Faang Cheng.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the mission!"

Caught off guard while still exchanging pleasantries with Chairman Zhao, Faang Cheng was momentarily stunned. Was the mission really over just like that?

But Faang Cheng didn't dwell on it and waved goodbye to Chairman Zhao.

Something then seemed to strike Chairman Zhao, who said, "Brother Fang, I forgot to mention something. When you get a chance, check the internet. There's quite a buzz against you now!"

For me?

Faang Cheng was somewhat puzzled.

Seeing his confusion, Chairman Zhao chuckled and said, "I'm not too savvy with online matters. Brother Fang, you might want to take a look for yourself."

After parting ways with Chairman Zhao, Faang Cheng pulled out his phone, eager to find out what had transpired.

A quick browse revealed the gist of the situation.

It turned out his two videos had stirred up trouble.

The significant discrepancy had led some to believe he was just stirring up hype.

Then, Faang Cheng's fans came to his defense, sparking a heated argument with the critics.

Faang Cheng spoke out in frustration, "My fans aren't to be trifled with!"

"The system has issued a mission: Smack Down the Haters."

Mission Details: Make those envious detractors eat their words!

Mission Reward: The Watching River Office Building."

The Watching River Office Building?

Faang Cheng inhaled sharply.

The system was becoming increasingly generous.

The Watching River Building is one of Jiang City's iconic skyscrapers.

The price? Let's just say it's at a level Faang Cheng couldn't have even imagined before.

And even if you have the means, they wouldn't sell it to you.

"Taking down the haters? Easy, just watch me!" Faang Cheng declared as he logged into his Weibo account.

He hadn't used this account since he first registered it.

With a quick edit, Faang Cheng crafted a Weibo post and hit send.

"Faang Cheng Style: I've heard some people questioning my identity, accusing me of creating hype.

So, let's keep it simple: I'm holding a lottery. Those who like and comment on this post could win one of ten luxury mansions, each worth ten million yuan. You've got three days—get commenting!"

Next, Faang Cheng tagged Zhao's Group in the post.

After finishing up, Faang Cheng gave Chairman Zhao a call.

Upon hearing Faang Cheng's request, Chairman Zhao chuckled and replied, "No problem, it's a trivial matter."

True to his word, within two minutes, Zhao's Group's official account responded to Faang Cheng.

"We can confirm that Mr. Faang has fully purchased a building from us. The prize is legitimate and valid. However, we must correct Mr. Faang on one point—the price of each house is at least one hundred million!"

In less than a day, these two Weibo posts stirred up a massive wave of excitement online.

Since Weibo introduced the lottery feature, companies, celebrities, and organizations have frequently launched their own giveaways, offering a myriad of prizes and cash rewards.

But giving away houses? That's a first.

And not just one, but ten houses, totaling a staggering one billion yuan!

"Such a show of wealth! Let's see if the naysayers have anything to say now!"

"Pfft, you actually believe this nonsense? Clearly, they're just playing with you!"

"Exactly, in three days it'll either be a hacked account or just a prank! I'm not the one who's going to eat my words!"

"I'll remember you said you'd eat your words, bro. Just look at who's replying to him!"

"Jiang City's wealthiest, Chairman Zhao! Ever heard of Zhao's Group? They own so many properties in Jiang City!"

"Holy smokes! I just saw it! Could it be real?"

"Of course, it's real! Would a corporation as big as Zhao's Group make a joke like this? What about their reputation?"

"Hubby, spank me! Spank me!"

"Daddy, make sure you spank me!"

"Father, I'm your long-lost son!"

...

Initially, there were a few trolls stirring trouble, but after Zhao's Group responded, the comments quickly turned into a family reunion scene.

Faang Cheng watched the trolls fade into obscurity, feeling quite pleased.

Just then, a Weibo notification tagged @Faang Cheng appeared.

"Round Porridge: Some people really have the nerve to make such jokes! Remember, there are legal consequences for certain statements!

I'll give you three days. If you make good on your word, I'll eat my words with Oreo porridge! @Faang Cheng!"

Round Porridge?

That notorious online provocateur?

Faang Cheng scoffed at the thought.

"Fine, I'll be waiting to see you eat your words!"
