This time, Lin Chen's fame didn't come from how awesome he was in the game.

In a game that was about to shut down, no matter how powerful you were, no one would think you were amazing.

After all, the game was ending!

Lin Chen became famous because his classmates revealed a secret...

Yes.

When the online game "New World" announced that it would permanently shut down without any compensation, Lin Chen actually sold his house, borrowed money, and poured millions into it.

What was he trying to do?

Many people's first reaction to Lin Chen's operation was...

Moron?

Out of his mind?

Crazy?

A sucker?

In short, there wasn't a single positive comment.

Knowing that the game could only be played for less than half a month, yet still throwing millions into it was indeed difficult to understand. If you were rich, it might just be considered foolish to waste money.

However, in the information age, Lin Chen's identity and background were quickly posted online.

Lin Chen became a frequent guest on various short video platforms.

[Analyzing why a poor orphan willingly sells his house to play a game that is about to shut down? It can only be said that online games are harmful!]

[Moron? Retard? Take you into the real life of "Millionaire Tycoon" in "New World"! ]

[Squandering his parents' pension, selling the school district house, he should have had a better future.]

[The biggest sucker in online games, Lin Chen, a bachelor from Longhai City, we should feel sorry for him!]

[Half a month later, the game servers shut down. As an orphaned bachelor, how will he survive after spending all his savings and mortgaging his house?]

[Is it an illness, or sentimentality? A bachelor orphan spends his parents' pension, sells his school district house, and incurs millions in debt. When the game shuts down, will he still be able to survive?]

[...]

Wow.

Lin Chen, after finishing a day of gaming, saw videos of himself everywhere on Kuaiyin.

Yes!

Lin Chen was on fire.

Even negative publicity is still publicity!

Lin Chen even received many phone calls...

"Hello? Is this Lin Chen? I am Jiang Tingting from the school's propaganda department. Do you have time to accept an interview?"

Hearing the other party's words, Lin Chen immediately showed a playful expression.

The school's propaganda department...

What level is that!

There were even TV reporters who wanted to interview Lin Chen now!

"Hello, Mr. Lin Chen. We are the "Contemporary Youth" program team from Longhai Metropolitan Channel. I am Xiao Teng, the chief planner of the program team. I would like to formally invite you to participate in the latest episode of our program!"

"Hello, Lin Chen. We are from Kuaiyin official. Are you interested in cooperating with us to create a special program for you? We have support with tens of billions of traffic... If Lin Chen agrees, the compensation will definitely be considerable! If Lin Chen settles in Kuaiyin and opens an official account, we will immediately offer an 800,000 yuan signing bonus."

"Hello, Mr. Lin Chen, I am the general manager of Brain Gold Health Products. I would like to cooperate with you to hold a live broadcast, let you help promote our products and sell goods. Do you think there is any intention to cooperate? I feel that you are very suitable to endorse our products now!"

"..."

Wow.

Lin Chen didn't expect that not only the TV station, but even the Kuaiyin platform had come to his door.

At this time, the school's propaganda department naturally had no chance.

"Sorry, I have already agreed to the "Contemporary Youth" program team from Longhai Metropolitan Channel, and the Kuaiyin platform also invited me to their headquarters to do a show, I guess I don't have time right now."

Lin Chen rejected Jiang Tingting.

Of course, the reason why he was so polite was because Jiang Tingting was the second most beautiful girl on the school's beauty list, with fair skin, a beautiful appearance, long legs, and a high-achieving student in the journalism department.

As for Brain Gold sales...

Okay, Lin Chen hung up the phone directly.

It was a bit insulting.

Saying that he was very suitable, meaning that Lin Chen was missing his brain stem?

Lin Chen was already very polite by not telling the other party to get lost.

In Lin Chen's class group.

[Liu Shangfang: What the hell is going on? Is Lin Chen so popular now? Has everyone seen Kuaiyin?]

[Jiang Youyou: I saw it. At least six out of ten videos on Kuaiyin are about him.]

[Chen Cong: What popularity? The videos are all kinds of slander.]

[Liu Hai: That's right, is this considered popular? Hehe, I think it will cool down when the heat passes.]

[Ye Tenglong: The current deformed aesthetics are becoming more and more limitless. I really didn't expect that this kind of obviously brain-damaged behavior could become so popular.]

[Chen Cong: Young Master Ye is envious? Hehe, Lin Chen is probably very happy now, he's about to become a big star... Isn't there a saying? Traffic is king, negative publicity is also publicity.]

[Jiang Youyou: Everyone is a classmate, I wanted to say it last time, it's best for everyone to be harmonious when chatting. Why are you being so sarcastic when Lin Chen is mentioned? Besides, who said negative publicity isn't publicity! My sister just told me that she wanted to interview Lin Chen but was rejected! Moreover, Lin Chen is about to participate in the "Contemporary Youth" program, and Kuaiyin headquarters also invited him to do a show.]

[Wang Jiajia: Holy shit! Really?]

[Liu Shangfang: Is he that awesome?]

[Anonymous: @Young Master Ye, what do you think?]

[Ye Tenglong: It can't be true, right? If it's true, then it's really fucked up! Damn it, is it really true that negative publicity is also publicity? Lin Chen, this kid, has been incredibly lucky!]

At this time, upon hearing the news, how dare Ye Tenglong continue to mock Lin Chen?

Now, he wished that he was the one who had made Lin Chen's move.

However, he had no chance, the account had already been sold to someone else.

But Ye Tenglong certainly couldn't imagine that he would only feel regret now, and in the future, it would be more than just regret.

That would definitely be a very painful realization!

Lin Chen, on the other hand, had just finished dinner and was calling Liu Mengyao.

"Yes, I'm going to the city tomorrow to participate in the recording of the "Contemporary Youth" program, and the day after tomorrow I'm going to Beijing to participate in Kuaiyin's special program... It's nothing, just talking about my mental journey with everyone! Hehe, don't worry, I want to go myself. Haha, it's not for the money, you don't need to give me money, I really want to go myself."

Liu Mengyao thought that Lin Chen was doing it for money, and then agreed to the TV station and Kuaiyin platform to participate in the program. She also saw those videos online, with various up-loaders' wild ideas, which could be said to be full of black material and rumors, and even some people fabricated plots such as Lin Chen peeping at a widow taking a bath when he was a child.

However, Lin Chen couldn't provide evidence that he had never peeped at a widow taking a bath since he was a child.

He couldn't record his life's growth trajectory every moment, right?

Therefore, the current evaluation of Lin Chen on the Internet is actually very bad.

As Chen Cong said, it was really negative publicity!

At this time, Lin Chen walked out, and also participated in the program to talk to the national audience, wasn't that actually going to be a monkey to let others throw banana peels at him?

Liu Mengyao didn't want Lin Chen to do this.

She even said that if Lin Chen was really short of money, she would find a way to get some from her family...

As a CP (couple) who had known each other for several years in online games, it was already very rare to be loyal and unyielding along the way, and Liu Mengyao was simply like a pie falling from the sky.

Lin Chen was naturally very grateful for this.

But there was no need.

Lin Chen had enough money now.

However, if he could earn more, he could hoard more supplies in the game. When the game merged in the future, these supplies would all be Lin Chen's capital.

At that time, everyone would beg him.

They would work for him like cows and horses, wanting these supplies!

After comforting Liu Mengyao and telling her that he would be busy these days and may be online less, but at least go online every day to accompany her to watch the scenery for a while, Lin Chen called Zhang Chunlin again.

"I got two shows, and now I have more money. Continue to collect things in the game for me, collect them until you vomit! Of course, the price must be kept to a minimum. Is the price of goods in the game falling off a cliff every day?"

"Yes, don't worry, Boss... Haha, Lin Chen, did you see it? Now many fair-weather friends in the class group envy you! As for Ye Tenglong, that guy is a joke, he's so sour."

"Didn't see it, not interested!"

"Huh? Why did the campus beauty Jiang Tingting call me? Boss, wait for me!"

Zhang Chunlin went to answer the phone.

After a few minutes, Zhang Chunlin said happily: "Boss, Jiang Tingting heard from somewhere that I was helping you collect things in the game, so she said she wanted to interview me, and she also asked her sister Jiang Youyou to help her speak, I... can I go?"

It could be heard that Zhang Chunlin's tone was very excited.

Lin Chen remembered that Zhang Chunlin had always liked Jiang Youyou.

"Go if you want to." Lin Chen said indifferently.

"Boss, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense!" Zhang Chunlin immediately said: "Thank you, Boss, for giving me this opportunity. I really wouldn't dare to agree if you didn't say anything. If I get together with Jiang Youyou, you will be my brother in the future!"

"Hehe, you can say whatever you want, I only have one request: don't be soft on the acquisition of props and equipment in the game, and the formation blueprint I told you about, you can directly post a heavy reward for it!"

Lin Chen told Zhang Chunlin, and then hung up the phone.

Next, Lin Chen began to think about what to say on the show.

The crisis was about to come.

However, the whole world was still unaware.

It was still a world of extravagance and boundless prosperity...

However, this prosperity would soon be destroyed.

As an informed person, and also a member of Blue Star humans, Lin Chen's sense of responsibility prompted him to remind everyone, but how to say it? First of all, no one would believe the saying about rebirth, even if he said it.

Secondly, this was Lin Chen's biggest secret, and he couldn't say it.

But this time, it was an excellent opportunity.

After thinking about it, Lin Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration...

Why not just say that he had a dream!

At that time, whether others believed it or not, he had already tried his best.

Moreover, Lin Chen could also take this opportunity to talk to the military.

Although there were only ten days left in the game, if he started entering the game to set up a layout now, the military of the Dragon Kingdom would at least be prepared.

...

ps: The game plot will be relatively reduced next, mainly to describe the real background, which can also be regarded as a transition, and then the game will start to invade.
