He fully understood the power of the internet. He knew that the negative impact behind these ten hot search topics would be devastating! “Mr. James, something went wrong. We’re suspended!” Leo rushed in with his computer, extremely agitated. Of course, Robbie realized the reason. He glanced at Leo and said anxiously, “Quickly, drop the hot searches. No matter how much it costs, we must drop them!” In an instant, the entire mansion quickly became busy, and various phone calls came in and out. On the other hand, Robbie sat limply on the sofa with his eyes wide open. He was staring straight at the hot search topics, and every topic was labeled ‘hot’. Ten minutes passed. Not only did the hot searches not drop, but they were getting more and more popular! Leo reappeared at the door, his eyes blank. He felt like he was sobbing without tears. “Mr. James, it’s over. We… We can’t drop them! There are too many people. More than 100 big accounts, hundreds of millions of fans!” T
“Mr. Clarke, we’re currently buying a large number of shares and acquiring Beaver Media regardless of the price. At present, we already own 60% of Beaver Media,” ten minutes later, Anna reported. Now, Beaver Media’s stock prices had plunged because of the scandals. However, some people still refused to sell. “That’s too little. I want everything. Who refused to sell?” Philip frowned. This was different from his expectations. “The other party is a cunning old fox in the business who seemed to have noticed something. We’ve doubled the price, but he still refused,” Anna said with a frown. “Hehe, money makes the world go round. Increase the price by five times. I don’t believe these old foxes will forgo this chance. I must take down Beaver Media. Anyone who dares to do anything to Wynn will suffer the consequences!” Philip said coldly and adamantly. In fact, this matter would be much easier if Old George was the one operating it. However, Philip did not want to make use of
Philip was in a dilemma. He could neither admit nor deny it. Finally, he took a deep breath and said, “I asked a friend to help. He has some connections and resources in the circle.” On the other end, Wynn was silent for a moment before saying, “Thank you.” Sure enough, it was Philip. However, was his friend really that amazing? According to the colleagues from the PR department, this person was formidable with powerful methods! “I want to thank him in person. Please arrange it for me,” Wynn suddenly said. This time, Philip was flustered as he quickly declined. “Well, he’s not in Riverdale but Capital City. Maybe next time I’ll treat him.” Wynn was too persistent. “Well, okay then, but you must thank him for me. He did me a great favor this time,” Wynn said gratefully, “By the way, how much did it cost? Let me know and I’ll wire it back to him.” Philip smiled helplessly. It was still their money in the end. “Okay, I’ll find out later. Oh yes, I have something to d
Robbie was so angry that he had smashed several computers. At this time, the receptionist ran in, panting and saying, “Oh no, Mr. James, someone’s forcing their way in and wants to see you!” “What’s there to see? Find someone to get rid of them! Can’t you see that I’m busy?!” Robbie shouted angrily. The receptionist said timidly, “But we can’t stop them. They’ve already forced their way in.” Robbie raised his head and stared at her angrily. Then, he got up and said, “Who the hell is here to see me at this hour?” The receptionist shook her head and said hesitantly, “They didn’t say.” “F*ck!” Robbie simply said gruffly, “Get some people to stop them and drive them away. I’m not seeing them!” After that, Robbie stopped talking. Then, he sat on the sofa while smoking a cigarette. “Mr. James, could it be related to Beacon?” Leo suddenly said. Beacon? Robbie quickly sat up. “It can’t be. The PR in Beacon is rubbish. Besides, it’s already so late. Who the hell could it
Robbie’s eyes were sullen as he stared at the dozen or so people who had suddenly broken in! Especially the young man who took the lead. He was so young, it was ridiculous! Not only that but the aura he exuded terrified Robbie! A domineering spirit? There was this illusion. In just an instant, however, Robbie regained his clarity. With angry sparks in his eyes, he shouted, “Who are you? Who let you in?! Get out!” This group of barbarians dared to break into his mansion. They were too b*llsy! “Mr. James, they’re the ones who wanted to see you.” The receptionist quickly called someone to drive them out. If Mr. James was angry with her, she would be in for it tonight. Even her knees would suffer. The receptionist trembled as she recalled the lashing Robbie had given her before. However, Philip simply dug his ear with his thumb, blew at it, and said disdainfully, “Son, have you already forgotten Daddy so soon?” Too pretentious! Digging his ear with his thumb. Ma
Bam! Philip snapped his fingers and immediately, two middle-aged men walked in through the door. One was in a black suit with a greasy head, and the other was in a flowered shirt, looking smug. “Mr. James.” The two of them smiled at Robbie in unison. “Mr. King, Mr. Wand, why are you here?” Robbie was stunned and flustered! They were two of the company's three major shareholders, each accounting for 15 percent of the shares. Mr. King and Mr. Wand laughed, walked past Robbie, and stood directly in front of Philip respectfully. They bowed and greeted, “Mr. Clarke.” Philip nodded as a sign of greeting. “Mr. King, Mr. Wand, what's the meaning of this?” Even if Robbie was confused, he could see that something was up. Impossible! Mr. Wand, the man wearing the flowered shirt, held his head high and said to Robbie impatiently, “Mr. James, we’re doing this for money. Mr. Clarke offered us five times the market price. Moreover, the entire network is condemning Beaver Media
Buy it all back again? What was the meaning of this?! Robbie was all the more baffled by Philip’s actions, but his instincts told him that he was being tricked. “Mr. James, your head has not been messed up by your wife, right? I said this is 100% of the shares of Beaver Media. I want you to buy it all back. According to the market price, Beaver Media is worth 300 million, so let’s round it up. You can give me one billion for the time being. Beaver Media is still your company and you’re still the largest shareholder. As such, I’m being very considerate, right?” Philip stood in front of Robbie, grinning. That smile seemed so calm and innocent. Robbie stared at that broad toothy grin and almost spat a mouthful of blood! F*ck! After rounding up, 300 million became one billion?! That was daylight robbery! This was going too far! “Mr. Clarke, why should I buy it all back? Beaver Media has such a bad reputation now. Besides, I don’t have money.” Robbie directly shook h
Robbie’s face turned dark as he stared at Philip with eyes full of hatred! “Haha, a threat? I’m sorry, it’s not a threat, it’s an order!” Philip said with an unquestionable tone. “Mr. Clarke, don’t take things too far! I’m not a weakling who you can bully at will! Even a rabbit will bite if it’s threatened! At worst, I’ll take you down with me! I still have a backer behind me!” Robbie was thoroughly annoyed, so he bit the bullet and said roguishly. He would not take this lying down. If he really bought the shares, there would be no turning back! “Your backer?” Philip smiled calmly and said, “I look forward to it.” He did not care about Robbie James at all, because his target had always been the people behind him. Philip knew all along that Robbie was just a small potato and the person who was helping him in the background was the big fry! In other words, he was bait. Since he was going to settle this once and for all, then he had to completely eliminate the grass from
Ronan and Philip moved forward and finally arrived at the human town. Philip looked around curiously and found that it was a large city. Humans had done quite well in developing a city. “If you’re not happy with this place, you can consider going to the city in the west. You can find many human territories nearby. I don’t know why humans are unwilling to live together but prefer to build cities everywhere!” Ronan was not human, so he could not understand it. “Although my mother is a human, I’m not. I only remember living in that hut since I was born. No other race is willing to accept me, including humans.” Ronan was embarrassed because he had scales on his body that were clearly visible at sea but not so much on land. Humans were unwilling to classify Ronan as a human because of that. Philip nodded, surprised to hear his pitiful plight. Not only did he not have his own race, but his mother’s race was unwilling to acknowledge him too. “That’s awful. Why don't you join u
“This is it, crystal! This little stone can get me a big bottle of wine! Since I’m lucky enough to meet you today, I’ll give it to you!” Ronan clearly had no concept of money. Philip took the stone from Ronan’s hand and found that it was no different from an energy stone. He tried to return the stone to Ronan, who rejected it. “I don't have much concept of money, but I know that money is indispensable if you want to go to the place where humans live. Just take it. I'm afraid that you’ll be detained if you don't have money. I was detained once before!” Philip was touched by Ronan’s words. He took out a bottle of wine from the space ring and handed it to Ronan. Although the wine was nothing to Philip, it was a rare treasure to Ronan, who had never tasted good wine. “What’s this?” Ronan curiously took the bottle of wine that Philip handed to him. He put it to his nose, sniffed it carefully, and was soon bursting with excitement. “This is good stuff! Do you want to sell it to m
“You’re not from a big family? In that case, how did you become so strong at such a young age?” Ronan looked at Rabbit in surprise too. “I thought you were from a big family, one of the best! After all, only such families have the power to capture summoned beasts for their descendants!” Obviously, Ronan had misunderstood Rabbit’s identity. Rabbit blinked blankly, wondering what Ronan was talking about. “Summoned beast? I'm not a summoned beast; I'm just an ordinary rabbit!” Seeing Ronan’s confusion, Rabbit smugly introduced himself. Although he had no idea what a summoned beast meant, it did not sound imposing, so Rabbit did not like it at all. Ronan was startled to hear that Rabbit was not a summoned beast but a creature with intelligence. He felt very powerful. “Indeed, he’s not a summoned beast but my pet. You can think of him as my partner. I’m more curious about this place.” Philip was puzzled, wondering what was going on in this world. He had not seen any towns so f
“This is the survival of the fittest! We were much stronger than them, so they were at our mercy, just like how we’re at your mercy now!” Someone stepped forward, his voice trembling as if he wanted to rebuke Philip. Seeing his timid appearance but bold attempt, Philip sneered, “In that case, I’m stronger than you, so there’s nothing wrong with killing you. You should pray that I won’t kill you in the cruelest way possible.” Philip raised his sword and killed the fish creature who voiced up. Any sign of weakness and these people would think they had a chance to survive. Ronan applauded Philip’s decisiveness and quickly joined the battle. Philip smiled at Ronan’s excitement. He simply wanted to vent. Over the years, he had been working so hard for his family and their future that he had almost lost sight of himself. He realized that maybe he should live for himself from now on. He wanted to become stronger and dominate the world. He knew that this was a real world. Although
At this time, a merman chased after the deep-sea fish creatures with a trident in hand. “Where do you think you’re going? Don't think I don't know that you took advantage of the chaos to massacre other villages. Since you can do such a thing, you must bear the consequences. I’m here to take your lives today!” The merman was clearly seeking justice, chasing the other party angrily. The deep-sea fish creatures escaped frantically without an explanation. “Damn that lunatic!” They did not expect that the merman was so fit, keeping up with them despite fleeing for so long. He did not seem tired at all. Meanwhile, Philip arrived and heard someone cursing. It looked like a merman. He was a force to be reckoned with. Philip could feel the huge pressure he exuded from a distance. He was definitely a powerful being who should not be trifled with. He was strong enough to drive this race to this state, which was enough to prove how extraordinary he was. The merman was startled
“They really stink. I think you should ask Aslan to do this next time. I believe he’ll enjoy this,” Rabbit said offhandedly as he led Philip in the trail of the scent. Philip smiled. He had recorded Rabbit’s statement with a projection stone. He could expect a good show once he showed it to Aslan. Rabbit had no idea that Philip had laid a trap for him. He was still hopping and leading the way. They soon arrived at a mysterious sea area that was remote and gloomy. “Did they live in such a dangerous and disgusting place?” Rabbit sighed. Sure enough, ugly creatures liked to live in dark places. Similar to the fish creatures, they used to live in a swamp too, maybe to hide their ugly appearance or something. Now that they looked better, they refused to return to the dark and damp environment again. Philip looked around without a word. He saw a stone sign on the side—deep-sea fish creatures. That should be the name of their name. The scale of them seemed quite big. “Ph
Aslan and the others had been teleported to different locations. Everyone was confused and wondered where they were. Some people appeared among some terrifying monsters and started fighting desperately as soon as they landed. Others landed in the desert where Philip was before. They looked about in puzzlement and wondered what was going on. As Philip’s followers, however, they were smart and quickly adapted to the situation. The sneaky little Rabbit was still by Philip’s side. Rabbit stayed in Philip's pocket and clung tightly to his belt the whole time. No powerful force could throw him away, so he managed to stay with Philip. “That was close. I felt a huge force just now and thought I’d be thrown out!” Rabbit felt that something was wrong when he entered. He quickly clung tightly to Philip so that they did not separate. However, that possibility still lingered in his mind, so he made preparations to deal with such a situation. Philip reached out and patted the sneaky Rabb
“Philip, I’m curious to find out what made you stay there for such a long time.” Aslan approached Philip curiously. According to his understanding of Philip, he must have encountered something good, which was why he did not leave at once. Philip smiled indifferently. “You’ll find out soon enough. It’s related to improving everyone's strength,” Philip said mysteriously. Rabbit hopped and looked at Philip anxiously. As an impatient rabbit, he could not bear seeing Philip whetting their appetites. He wanted to share the story immediately. “Since you’re so eager to tell them, go ahead and satisfy their doubts.” Philip smiled and shook his head at Rabbit’s anxiety. Rabbit was very excited to get Philip’s consent. He told everyone what they encountered there and described it so vividly that everyone felt as if they were there too. Philip realized that Rabbit was quite good at telling stories. “You have no idea how amazing that place is. It's full of ordinary creatures, but t
Philip was puzzled by everyone’s reaction. “Why aren't you leaving?” Everyone looked at each other. Some were embarrassed and stepped forward to please Philip. They took out their treasures and offered them to Philip. They were grateful to Philip for saving them and treating them with reason. Some ungrateful families sneaked out after the passage was opened without giving anything in return. Philip ignored them, but he took note of the people who tried to please him. They were smart and had a bright future. Philip was happy with them. As some people left, others followed suit. The merfolk lingered around Philip, unwilling to leave. After all, their chief was gone. No matter how powerful they were, they would never gain a foothold. Their race would be wiped out once they fell to a certain level, so everyone wanted to join Philip. At least Philip was a powerful person. It would be best if Philip was willing to help them. “Please take us in!” “The merfolk don't have many tre
