After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

Chapter 129: Chapter 129 Portrait



Capital City, Qingquan Mountain Film and Television Base.

Fang Yuan looked at the continuously increasing share of profits in her account and instantly beamed with joy.

She had not expected that the celebrity effect, coupled with capital operations, could yield such high profits.

In just a few days, she had actually received more than twenty million.

So far, her milk tea shop had opened nearly ten thousand branches across the country, and the number was still increasing wildly.

Fang Yuan couldn't contain her excitement, and at this rate, she thought, she might fulfill the wager agreement in no more than two months.

Han Mintao placed several contracts in front of Fang Yuan.

"These are the plans for after you complete the wager agreement. Your personal studio and personal sole proprietorship need to be set up now," he said.

Fang Yuan glanced briefly at the contracts, then prepared to sign, but her phone suddenly rang.

"Yuan sister, our stores in Suzhou City aren't doing well. Several of them are struggling to survive."

Along with this message came a video.

With one look, Fang Yuan knew it was Chen Yu's store.

Especially when she saw the nine large barrels labeled "free supply," her nerves almost snapped.

Nowadays, everyone knows that the milk tea industry is highly profitable—a cup of milk tea costing ten yuan might only have a cost of one to two yuan.

How could they possibly compete with someone offering free goods?

Fang Yuan took a deep breath, not bothering to worry too much. After all, her business layout was nationwide, and the loss of merely one Suzhou City wouldn't have too much impact.

But when she saw the contents of the video, she still felt anger bubbling up inside her. Could free stuff really taste better than her milk tea?

"What's wrong, daughter?"

Han Mintao pressed on Fang Yuan's shoulder, "Why the long face? You're about to complete the wager agreement; what could possibly upset you?"

Fang Yuan was somewhat dazed, "Mom, do you think, when I make my marriage history public, will there be any negative public opinion about me? Can I safely bring Tuan Tuan back?"

Han Mintao was taken aback, "I advise against it. The entertainment industry relies on personal branding, once that collapses, everything you have will cease to exist."

Fang Yuan's breath became rapid, "But didn't you say that as long as I fulfill the wager agreement, I might be able to bring Tuan Tuan back?"

Han Mintao sighed lightly, "That's true, but this is the entertainment industry! Personal branding is fundamental to your livelihood. I can only guarantee your independence from capital's control. As for the rest, time will tell."

Fang Yuan didn't speak again. She just signed her name on those contracts and then sat staring blankly at the video on her phone.

By four o'clock in the afternoon, the flow of people began to dwindle.

Chen Yu was preparing to take a break when suddenly he saw several people rush into the shop with great momentum, heading straight for the free supply area.

They immediately grabbed the large barrels, ready to pour out all the porridge.

Chen Yu frowned and lunged forward, flipping these people to the ground in a swift move.

Li Gang and Ning Kai rushed out of the kitchen upon seeing this.

"Oh, so you dare to come here and make trouble!" Li Gang shouted, lifting one of the men, "Who sent you?"

These guys were somewhat dazed by Chen Yu's takedown; they had not expected Chen Yu to be so formidable.

"I recognize them; they're from the milk tea shop across the street!" Liu Tong pointed at the men with some indignation.

Chen Yu frowned. He had not expected the milk tea shop's personnel to come over and create a scene.

"It doesn't matter who they are; just send them straight to the relevant authorities!"

Just then, the floating TV set up in the middle of the hall suddenly displayed scenes from a wilderness survival show.

When Chen Yu appeared on the screen, everyone cheered.

"Oh my God, Chen Yu is actually participating in the program with those three wilderness survival experts."

"Chen Yu has this up his sleeve, we never saw it before."

"Such a perfect man, truly surprising."

...

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, the footage on TV was edited, and many details weren't shown.

It didn't highlight Chen Yu's abilities too much, probably because Tong Ming and the organizers had given specific instructions.

However, the amount of advertising in the program was really excessive, with various ads popping up on the screen all the time.

The show had indeed become very commercial!

Just then, Chen Yu's phone suddenly rang with a notification, and his account received a whole twenty million.

Chen Yu became excited, now he could start preparing the factory.

While he was making plans, Tang Xiaowei and Su Rui rushed into the shop and handed a proposal to Chen Yu.

"Brother Yu, our animation has passed the review, and the first episode will premiere today!"

Tang Xiaowei shouted excitedly, then grabbed the remote control and switched to the animation channel.

Meanwhile, Su Rui spread out several contracts on the table.

"You need to sign this authorization document, after all, the original characters for the animation are based on you guys."

Chen Yu was a bit surprised, he hadn't expected the two girls to move so fast, and in just a few days, they had already produced the animation.

And looking at the quality, they must have invested a lot of money.

Chen Yu didn't say much and directly signed his name.

The shop suddenly became lively, even more excited than when they were watching the wilderness survival show.

"Isn't this the comic we read before? It's been turned into an animation."

"Chen Yu, this shop is going to be famous all over the country."

"I've been a witness to this shop since the days it was just a food cart, I'm an old customer here."

"As if it's any different for anyone else!"

...

Chen Yu was also a bit excited; if the animation spread widely, it would be a great prelude to opening his factory later.

Just then, Zhou Shengtao rushed into the shop in a hurry.

However, he didn't care about the troublemakers that Chen Yu had caught but anxiously pulled out a photo and handed it to Chen Yu.

"Chen, I have an urgent matter I need your help with, can you draw the person from this photo?"

Chen Yu frowned, clearly the photo was a blurry surveillance snapshot, and the figure was so indistinct that probably only a professional portrait artist could draw the person.

"You're making it difficult for me! The photo is so blurry, it's just a profile, and moreover, the person is wearing a mask, I'm afraid I really can't help this time."

Zhou Shengtao didn't care about that, he insisted on stuffing the photo into Chen Yu's hands.

"Chen, I still hope you can give it a try, this is related to over a dozen lives!"
