I’ve Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show

Chapter 238: 232: Wan Chen Cheats!
However, the website was so dumb that they only sent customer service to explain briefly that there was a bug in the system. Then, under the pressure of Wan Chen insisting that he had won one million, they transferred the one million to Wan Chenâand it was even the amount after taxes.
Zheng He, who had always been at the bottom on the internet, suddenly rose to the position of the Money Saving King. With a sour feeling in his heart, he mocked, âThis is the first time Iâve seen a business with such a big brain.â
His fake money of three hundred thousand now seemed more like a jokeâ¦
Buying fake money and still not outdoing others, isnât that hilarious?
[Damn! Wan Chen actually became the Money Saving King? Thatâs way too unexpected! I thought Zheng He was the dark horse since heâs been somewhat unlucky overall, but you have to admit heâs a bit clever.]
[Compared with the other guests, itâs unbelievable that the ordinary Wan Chen succeeded in a surprise attack at the end of the show! To be honest, I suddenly feel like this is an inside job.]
[I feel the same! Everything in the show was quite normal at first, and the way everyone was making money also made sense, but the websiteâs lottery draw wasnât public, and the winner ended up being Wan Chen, who had zero presence throughout the show. It happened right before the show was about to end, so itâs hard not to suspect that this was orchestrated by the showâs team!]
[Doesnât that mean Chen Xixi can no longer win? Chen Xixi worked so hard from beginning to end on the show, and in the end, is she just a passerby, a clown before the pre-determined champion?]
[It does seem a bit fishy, folks, the way Wan Chen got his money is too coincidental, too easy.]
[Just report it and itâs done!]
Wan Chen easily became the new Money Saving King and instantly soared to the top of the trending search list, leaving all the viewers who had watched the show feeling deeply stunned, collectively crying out that the showâs team had an inside job.
Otherwise, how could the insignificant Wan Chen win one million at the critical moment?
Too suspicious!
Although Chen Xixi had also received a high amount of money, Chen Xixi had been working hard all the time, and everyone saw the causes and effects of every amount of money she earned. As for Wan Chen, it really came out of nowhere, catching everyone off guard!
After watching the show, Chen Xixi herself felt she had no hope.
She needed to earn another four hundred thousand to surpass Wan Chen.
The show is ending tomorrow night; there are less than thirty-six hours left. Where can she earn four hundred thousand?
Chen Xixi stood near a small park close to her apartment, locked her phone screen, and pocketed it.
She found a bench and sat there to rest.
She had seen the netizensâ suspicions of an inside job online, and in fact, she also had some doubts, but without evidence, it was almost impossible to refute the showâs team with just her words.
Perhaps Xu Yichen was right at that timeâgoing on such a show without a backing meant you were just there to make up the numbers.
But she wasnât just making up the numbers either. At the very least, she had made six hundred thousand in a month and gotten revenge on those who had bullied her. Besides, she still had the popularity prize; she could sign with Nanxing Entertainment and earn an additional five million.
She just hoped she could hold on to this popularity prize in the end.
To be honest, she didnât hold out much hope, after all, who could predict netizensâ reactions?
One second they might send you to heaven, and the next, they could cast you into the abyssâitâs all down to their word which can decide the fate of those who rely on the internet to survive.
Chen Xixi, with her hands propping up her chin, stared blankly at the blue sky and white clouds for a while. A gentle breeze passed by, and she suddenly came to terms with it.
Letâs just leave it to fate.
On the way back to the apartment, she remembered what President Zhou of Zhongjing Group had promisedâthat there would be no inside dealings in the show.
She wondered whether a capitalistâs words should be trusted.
Maybe she could ask? But if it really was an inside job arranged by the showâs team, the capitalist would definitely not take her side. If she rashly asked, it would definitely make her look very stupid, very naive.
Speaking of inside jobs, she couldnât help but recall the morningâs lucky draw at the shopping mallâwhom was that inside job prepared for?
Wan Chen said he would set an alarm to wake up early and go for a walk, and after the lucky draw, he left, without anyone seeing him browsing in the mall.
Chen Xixi increasingly felt that Wan Chen was there just for the mall lottery, and that 500,000 yuan was prepared for him. By some fluke, she took it instead.
In the morning the lottery draw was unsuccessful, and in the afternoon, the production team arranged for Wan Chen to win an online lottery with a glitch set to award 10,000 yuan, deliberately causing a system failure and awarding Wan Chen one millionâ¦
Could it be like this?
If it really is like that, how could she find the loophole?
In the end, Chen Xixi concluded: Itâs very difficult.
Unless sheâs a computer expert who could access the website and find the key evidence.
â¦
Unable to find evidence, Wan Chen was still reported by zealous netizens, and just as the production team was about to contact the websiteâs person in charge, the chief director received a call from Zhou Jinyuan.
About five minutes later, âMoney Saving Battleâ official Weibo posted: âAfter verification, Wan Chen used abnormal means to obtain the prize money, violating the rules of the program. Effective immediately, Wan Chen has no further relationship with this program! Additionally, the whistleblower please send a private message to the official program, and claim your reward!â
[As expected, cheating! I knew something was off!]
[So it was Wan Chen who cheated, not the production team!]
[We wronged the production team, this show really is fair!]
On the funds leaderboard, Wan Chenâs name had been removed, and Chen Xixi once again returned to the position of Money Saving King.
Back at the apartment, Wan Chen was called away by the production team and never returned.
Seeing a live example right before his eyes, Zheng He inexplicably began to worry about the 300,000 yuan in fake money he had.
It seems that cheating isnât that easy.
He feared that the next one to be reported and kicked out by the production team would be himself.
After some thought, Zheng He opened the website to contact customer service for a refund.
But who knew the customer service said it couldnât be refunded, as they almost finished printing.
ââ¦â
They said it couldnât be done in two days before? Now, before even one day has passed, theyâre telling him itâs almost done?
Itâs clear they donât want to make the refund!
Wonât refund, right! Then the moment he receives the goods tomorrow night, heâll directly call the police and report it!
Chen Xixi returned to her pinnacle moment, and her mood suddenly improved a lot. It turns out the production team really had no inside story; she had wronged them.
That evening, Han Qianyi received another anonymous text message: âWhy havenât you exposed Chen Xixi? The program ends tomorrow, donât you want to win?â
Han Qianyi directly deleted the number and blocked it.
No matter who it was, trying to use her as a pawn, does she look like a fool?
If she really were to secretly disclose information about Chen Xixi, not only would she leave a fatal handle in the hands of others but if netizens dug it up later, it would certainly stain her career with a major blemish.
A future Oscar-winning actress absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen!
Even without signing with Nanxing Entertainment, she could sign with other companies.
Besides, she also has Vice President Wang of Nanxing Entertainmentâs contact. She could obtain other opportunities from Vice President Wang; thereâs absolutely no need to do such a foolish act!
Moreover, between her and Chen Xixi, she now prefers to defeat her in various professional fields, not by revealing her pain points secretly and suppressing her glory!
She believes she will definitely have the ability in the future to surpass Chen Xixi with her actual talent!
