Chapter 124 Who's the Fool
Skyview looked at the news about Boring Surf on Twitter, Wisdom Haven, Reddit, and various forums, and a lewd smile appeared on his face.
Skyview hadn't even spent money on internet trolls, and netizens were already bragging about him on their own!
"Shocking, Shark's super-rich Boring Surf gives away two hundred million in one day!"
"Shark's super-rich emerges, Boring Surf gives away two hundred million daily, shocking the world!"
"Two hundred million a day from Boring Surf? Is this a marketing stunt or a real tycoon?"
"The legend of the live streaming industry—top super-rich Boring Surf versus ordinary tycoon Victor in a wealth battle!"
"Boring Surf, a man who spends money lavishly!"
The entire internet was flooded with Boring Surf.
In the past, a super-rich person emerging from a streaming platform wouldn't have caused such a stir across the internet. Streaming might seem big, but the internet was a vast ocean, and the streaming industry was just a few waves in that ocean.
But this time, Boring Surf was different!
A super-rich person giving away two hundred million in one day!
Twitter's trending topics! Wisdom Haven's headlines! Reddit's front page! Posts on various forums! Everywhere was filled with news about Boring Surf. Everyone was discussing Boring Surf, and he had truly become famous!
Some people said that Boring Surf was just a marketing stunt created by Shark officials. They claimed he was virtual because wealthy people weren't fools; with two billion, they could buy half of Shark's shares, so how could they just give it to a streamer? It was simply impossible!
Others said Boring was real, a true top-tier tycoon, someone who couldn't be compared to the likes of Ken, Erin, or Adam, who took turns being the richest. Boring Surf was a very powerful person.
Some enviously said Boring Surf was actually a rich second generation, who, while his parents weren't paying attention, gave away most of the family's savings to a female streamer, similar to those news stories where kids use their parents' phones to play games and tip streamers, spending all their parents' hard-earned savings.
Currently, the first and third theories were the most accepted, while the second was too conspiratorial and not widely believed.
Skyview hid in the shadows, watching these clueless viewers frantically discuss him, and suddenly felt a strange sense of accomplishment.
Skyview was very happy that no one knew his true identity.
This feeling was actually quite satisfying.
Skyview was browsing the web when Lily walked in.
"Mr. Scott, why are you sitting alone in front of the computer grinning like an idiot?"
Lily looked at Skyview in surprise. "I feel like you're acting a bit sleazy, not fitting your billionaire status."
"Because I'm very happy right now!" Skyview said smugly, shaking his leg and grinning, looking very punchable.
As Skyview's bodyguard, Suzanne clenched her fists. Although she was his personal bodyguard, she now had an urge to punch him.
Lily said speechlessly, "Why are you so happy today?"
Skyview said, "Because something good happened."
Lily asked, "What good things happened?"
Skyview laughed. "Did you check Twitter today?"
Lily said helplessly, "I've been busy investigating Penguin Company's acquisition of Shark's streaming platform for you; where would I find the time to check Twitter? I'm not that free, and I don't really like Twitter."
Skyview looked at Lily's beautiful legs under her short skirt and her feet in high heels, swallowed, and said with a grin, "How about I give you a foot massage?"
"Piss off, you pervert!" Lily gave Skyview a wary look. "I won't sell my body!"
Lily said angrily, "If you tease me again, I'll get mad!"
Skyview said seriously, "Alright, alright, I just saw you were too tired and made a joke to help you relax. You can check Twitter now; there's a surprise!"
Hearing this, Lily became curious, found a sofa, sat down, took out her phone, and opened Twitter.
Twitter had a lot of female users. Once, Oliver held a lottery, and all the winners were women. People suspected foul play, but later found out that most Twitter users were women. Any man with some intelligence wouldn't go to such a chaotic place like Twitter, full of annoying people.
Lily quickly saw the trending topic about Boring Surf.
After browsing for a bit, Lily watched a few edited videos from bloggers and roughly understood his incident.
"Are you asking me to pay attention to this Boring Surf?" Lily looked up at Skyview and asked.
"Yes, what do you think of him?" Skyview asked.
Lily said, "I'll check it on my phone."
Suzanne couldn't hold back and laughed.
Skyview coughed and said, "Answer me seriously! Do you think Boring Surf is cool? Giving away two hundred million in gifts just like that, in the history of Golden Valley's streaming, and even the entire internet, there's never been anyone like him!"
Lily asked, "Do you want the truth or a lie?"
Skyview asked, "What's the truth? What's the lie?"
Lily said, "The lie is that Boring Surf is really rich! Handsome! Rich and willful!"
Skyview laughed and asked, "And the truth?"
Lily hesitated and said, "I think he is just a pure fool!"
Skyview's face froze.
His face turned dark.
"Why do you say that?" Skyview asked.
Lily pouted and said, "That's two hundred million, so much money wasted!"
"Spending two hundred million to tip streamers, isn't that the mark of a fool? If Boring Surf isn't a marketing ploy by Shark and is a real person, I don't know what to say. He must be incredibly stupid to do something so foolish!"
