Chapter 1522: Chapter 1494: President Qian’s Bad Idea
The Fox Cat felt that this journey was unusually long, probably because of Kiara’s family “asking after his health” which made him so rebellious that he didn’t have ti to settle down and, well, “be depressed”.
For Kiara and the Fox Cat, this competition wasn’t very challenging. In the words of Yuzo Joel, the two of them ca here to win prizes. Normally, Seven-Acre Farm would scorn such low-level competitions, and it was only because Kiara and Fox Cat Workshop had just started up that they had scraped together their assets to participate.
Kiara had Yuzo Joel make a chart; from now on, she would drag Fox Cat to register for any competition that offered prize money. She aid to make a na for the workshop and, by the way, to earn a little bit of cash.
Don’t forget, she got her land on credit… and she still owes Elder Brother a considerable amount of money.
As for such miserly and insane behavior, the Fox Cat was actually resistant.
After all, he was a well-known figure who ranked among the top few in international competitions. Even in the Black Market betting gas, whether using the identity of Young Leopard Davis from Seven-Acre Farm or Mysterious Man from JR, he was a big shot whose na was well-known. How could he fall so low to not let go of even a few hundred thousand in small change now that he had started a business with Kiara?
It was like he had already maxed out his level, wearing top-tier equipnt, and now Kiara had dragged him back to the noob village. Bullying kids was not sothing Fox Cat was pleased to do. After all, he had reached the level of a judge now; bullying newcors would make his peers look down on him, wouldn’t it?
On the first day of the competition, soone backstage saw Fox Cat and greeted him warmly.
“Young Leopard Davis, are you here to be a judge? What a coincidence, my apprentice is also competing soon. Please take good care of him!”
The Fox Cat smiled without saying a word, wondering how the person would feel facing off against their apprentice later, debating whether he should say “mother fucker” or not.
Everyone who saw Young Leopard Davis grinding for experience in the newbie village was internally exclaiming, “Wow, wow”.
On the first day, Kiara didn’t have to compete, so she sat with Mario Yuno in the audience, watching Fox Cat’s increasingly stiff face on the big screen.
“I think he might lose his temper soon,” Mario Yuno said sympathetically, as he watched Fox Cat.
He had been duped into being a labourer by his daughter-in-law.
“Look over there, the family and friends of his opponents want to lose their temper even more. Thinking like that makes you feel better,” Kiara pointed to the competitors’ area, indeed noticing a few with dark expressions.
One wonders whether soone would complain to the Organizing Committee about Fox Cat, a judge-level participant swooping in to snatch away the prize money from newcors.
But Kiara didn’t feel ashad at all; in fact, she was seriously considering it.
“With Fox Cat attracting attention all by himself, what if I custom made a polo shirt with our workshop’s na on the back? Would it serve as good publicity?”
Mario Yuno imdiately pictured the promoters at a supermarket sale, wearing shirts with the nas of various products, like toilets or milk, printed on the back.
If you swapped in Fox Cat’s head on the promoter’s body, the sense of humor was undeniable.
If they really made Fox Cat look like that, there’d be no point in competing anymore. They might as well switch to performing stand-up cody.
“…I think he would rather die than submit. Really, if you did that, he might develop depression from anger even if he doesn’t have it now,” Mario Yuno said.
The Fox Cat was previously of “Young” rank, but after partnering with his daughter-in-law, he had been reduced to a re promoter…
Kiara felt a bit regretful, “Just with his face, the advertising effect would be great… I’ll work on his ideological education when he gets down.”
“You might end up with no friends doing that…” Are you really here to poach talent?
Frankly, if Mario Yuno were with JR and saw Kiara making Fox Cat wear such an ugly polo advertisent shirt, no amount of money would be worth it.
Without any surprise, amidst the scornful looks of his peers, Fox Cat won the first match by a large margin. He didn’t dare to look back after getting off the stage and went straight to find Kiara.
Kiara approached as if nothing was wrong, while Fox Cat spoke in a low voice.
“Can I skip the next few rounds? You go on your own.”
It was a team battle, with team points on the line. Fox Cat really couldn’t stand the disdainful looks from others and felt like he was bullying newbies. After stepping down, he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye of an opponent, whose life he had made doubt, stepping off the stage with a crying face; he could even imagine the scene of the guy sobbing to his ntor.
What on earth did that guy do for a living? It was way too heartbreaking; how could he happily be a Psychiatrist after this, with such a huge gap?
Before the other contestants had even finished, Fox Cat had already rung the answering bell.
“I definitely have to participate, but that alone isn’t enough. We still need you to help us make our na known,” Kiara was very pleased with Fox Cat.
“If you’re really that short on cash, shall I cover it for you?”
Fox Cat wasn’t lacking money; over the years he had saved up a decent amount. To him, Kiara’s debts were nothing more than the cost of a few cars, so he’d rather she not pester him so much.
“No, no, no, it’s not about the money. Don’t we need to build up our brand’s recognition for our startup? Fox Cat, I’ve got an idea to discuss with you.”
Kiara rubbed her hands together, and Mario Yuno decisively moved Wendy to the side, subtly distancing himself from the daughter-in-law who had turned into a Capitalist.
Pointing at Kiara, Wendy babbled at her father, whose aning Mario Yuno understood.
Willa was surely asking him why Mommy was acting differently than usual.
Mario Yuno sighed, “Willa, when you grow up, you’ll understand. People, once they beco Capitalists, show their ugly true colors, always dreaming about how to exploit and oppress others for their surplus value…”
Kiara, hearing this nonsense, turned her head and glared at him, then turned to see the already uneasy Fox Cat silently moving backward, apparently wanting to distance himself from this evil Capitalist. Kiara quickly chased after him, shalessly insisting on her proposal.
“Fox Cat, I haven’t finished talking. I have a really good idea, what do you say if I make two outfits for you? Print our Workshop’s na and logo on the back, and once it’s broadcasted, we’ll instantly beco a hit!”
Even though Fox Cat was prepared for the Capitalist not to say anything good, he was still profoundly shocked; he nearly twisted his ankle!
“You want to do… what?!”
Did he hear wrong, or what?
That was insane! Too… shaless!
Not to ntion that Young Leopard Davis, the Mysterious Man, was already a world-famous expert, even ordinary contestants didn’t wear a huge advertisent on their clothes, did they?
It was too degrading!!!
“Don’t worry, I won’t affect your image. If you don’t like polo shirts, we can go with your usual style. You like Chinese styles, right? How about I make you a white Tang suit with our na on the back?”
“Not good at all!” Fox Cat was so irritated he even slipped into Northeastern dialect.
From a Cantonese accent to Northeastern dialect, just shows how annoying a Capitalist can be.
But the Capitalist was relentless, “If you don’t like the Tang suit, we can still talk. As long as our na is on it, that’s fine, Fox Cat—hey, don’t walk away, we can discuss it!”
“I’m depressed. I’m seriously depressed!” Elder sister, is it still not okay even if I concede to you!
