The race hadn’t started yet, but the internet was already in an uproar.
In the official live broadcast room, in just a short half hour since the start, Zhang Ziyuan and the broadcaster Yao Ming had shot up to the trending searches.
However, most of them were mocking Yao Ming for overestimating himself and seeking his own disgrace.
Contrary to the online fervor, in the conference room of the International Racing Alliance Huaxia District headquarters, the atmosphere had turned frigid.
The event was organized by the International Racing Alliance Huaxia District, and the person in charge was Vice President Guo Mingwei.
He sat in the main seat of the conference room.
Below him, seated to his left, were managers from four small to medium-sized platforms.
Chi Mingkun sat at the very end.
In this competition, apart from Zhang Ziyuan’s team, which was eagerly fought over by major streaming platforms for exclusive live broadcasting rights, the other three teams also had broadcasters from some small and medium-sized platforms come to discuss signing broadcasting rights.
The only one left out was Chi Mingkun’s Team E, which until now had attracted no interest.
As the person responsible, Guo Mingwei had sought out several streaming platforms that had always cooperated with them, hoping they would sign for the broadcasting rights of Chi Mingkun’s team.
Due to Zhang Ziyuan’s involvement, this competition’s popularity was unprecedentedly high, which upper management took very seriously. They had issued a firm order that every team must have broadcast and endorsement deals.
As a result, when the heads of the streaming platforms came over and heard about it, they all fell silent.
In these circumstances, silence from them all was clearly a rejection.
"Who here is willing to sign a contract with Team E?" Guo Mingwei rubbed his temples with a headache, "Team E has a lot of potential. It’s possible that during the race they might bring you unexpected surprises."
The called-out Manager Wang immediately felt aggrieved, their platform hadn’t managed to secure any good teams this time, and now they were being saddled with a team that clearly was going to lose them money, wasn’t it?
He opened his mouth, about to refuse.
But before he could speak, Chi Mingkun suddenly slammed the table and stood up. freewёbnoνel.com
His face was stern, yet he spoke with restrained politeness, "Thank you, Vice President Guo, for going to such lengths for our team. For this broadcast, we’ll handle it ourselves!"
As soon as Chi Mingkun spoke, the entire conference room abruptly fell silent, everyone looking at him in shock.
Although Chi Mingkun was also a broadcaster, this competition wasn’t only about him.
The broadcasting rights of the other participants had been sold to other platforms, while only his own broadcast... It would be very easy for netizens to notice something off.
Due to not being able to sell the rights, they were forced to broadcast their own race... It was truly an embarrassment beyond measure...
