Chapter 405 What a Disadvantage

Two days ago.

Fan Wumian personally called Huang Bo and asked him for help.

Now something went wrong, which would implicate Huang Bo as a defendant. This matter was obviously Fan Wumian's fault, and there was no way Huang Bo could bear the responsibility alone.

The whole thing is not a big deal, but it is not a small deal either.

It was nothing more than that Fan Wumian himself encountered some troubles, and he used the gimmick of the "Ten Thousand Souls Banner" to try to divert public attention.

The goal has been achieved and the effect is simply amazing.

Many people don’t know that some media have accused Fan Wumian of selling only two pieces of national treasures abroad at high prices, and the cultural relics were even taken to the national museum of the island country for display.

But most netizens got the news about "The Banner of Ten Thousand Souls" and "The coffin lid can't hold it down anymore", and couldn't wait to create all kinds of emoticons and make up all kinds of funny jokes, which became popular all over the mainland Internet in a short time.

The biggest trouble has been properly resolved. The descendants of the collector who bought Qianlong's shroud at an auction at a high price have come out to demand compensation and a public apology after being implicated. This was an unexpected result.

According to the current situation.

It is unlikely that he will lose money, after all, Huang Bo was just joking.

However, since it did cause negative impact involving huge amounts of money, there is a high possibility that the court will ask him to delete the post and make a public apology.

A public apology itself is not painful, but it is slightly embarrassing.

Fan Wumian never had the habit of letting his subordinates take the blame, so after a brief consideration, he called Huang Bo again and told him that he would most likely face a lawsuit.

Protect the boss from disaster.

Doesn’t this mean that a small favor turns into a great achievement?
Huang Bo immediately figured out the key point, and without saying anything, he patted his chest and shouted:

"I work for Mr. Fan, so of course I have to be the first to rush to the front when something happens. It's just a lawsuit, isn't it? Which star hasn't been sued several times? Last time, because I played a migrant worker, I was almost sued by a person with the same name and surname. He said that I tarnished his image, caused him to be laughed at by relatives and friends, and caused him mental damage."

Fan Wumian had never heard of this matter, and then he said:

"I think it's good that you're sued. At least it will stay on the Penguin Weibo hot search list for three or four days, which will be a great help in raising your popularity."

Huang Bo smiled happily:

"I've been popular enough these past two days, can I continue to be popular? That's great, when Crazy Racer is released, the box office may be even higher. It's my first time starring in a big-budget movie, so I can't help but feel a little uncertain."

Fan Wumian guessed that he was giving him a shot of defense, and said:

"Well, let's take it one step at a time and see what the collector of the shroud really means. If it's not excessive, the company will just compensate you and consider it as a particularly effective promotion for you. It's quite cost-effective."

Across the phone.

Huang Bo said again:

"I just made a joke online, but I never expected it to become such a big deal. You are worthy of being Mr. Fan. You made me famous with just one move. Even when Crazy Stone was released, the discussion about me was not so heated. Mr. Fan, you sold the Qianlong shroud cleanly. The seller rented it out to cover the dead. How can this be blamed on you, right?"

As early as the first time he heard that a Chinese-Thai buyer was renting out the shroud, Fan Wumian felt that this treasure was about to be ruined and its value would definitely plummet.

There is also a huge difference between the dead and the deceased.

The same thing, when used to cover the skeleton of Emperor Qianlong, is considered a treasure, but when used to cover an ordinary person, it only makes others feel unlucky, not to mention that it has been rented out several times, which is not classy at all.

To make Huang Bo feel completely at ease.

Fan Wumian spoke up and said:

"This whole thing has nothing to do with you, but you can cry a little and let the outside world know that you've been sued, so as to get some publicity." "Leave the rest to me. The shroud was borrowed during the filming of The Golden Eyes, so the crew should have dealt with the collector."

"If it doesn't work, I will buy back the Ten Thousand Souls Banner at a low price. It is very well-known, and I can earn more ticket revenue by putting it in a special exhibition hall."

The destroyed Qianlong shroud is no longer interesting.

However, if it is simply renamed "Wanhun Banner" and put on public display in a museum, it may become the museum's treasure and attract tourists traveling to Beijing to visit and check in.

As time goes by and its popularity increases, the value of this Qianlong shroud will increase again.

The last time it could be sold at a sky-high price, it was also thanks to Fan Wumian's discovery of a bargain, which made it widely known all of a sudden. The same is true for the set of Yuanmingyuan Peace and Desolate Rivers gold coins.

The value of these items in Fan Wumian's hands is probably two or three times higher than in other people's hands. The only difference is the word "fame".

For example, the famous Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup.

Before it was sold at a sky-high price at an auction in its previous life, even if it was placed in a museum, I'm afraid few people would be willing to stop and take a closer look at it, as it is just a small cup with a very inconspicuous shape.

Huang Bo was surprised after hearing this:
"Sell it and then buy it back? That's such a loss. At worst I can just give in and pay some money. Anyway I have thick skin, so it won't be a problem."

It would be quite comfortable to get along with him. Fan Wumian said happily:
"It doesn't matter. I will only buy it back if the price is right. If it's in someone else's hands, it will be useless, but I can still save it. Anyway, it's in the museum and I won't take it home. The brocade Dharani Sutra Quilt has its effects, and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner can also be used to suppress Feng Shui and to ward off evil spirits. When the time comes, if I don't like someone, I can use it as a strategic weapon and threaten to kill those competitors. It might work wonders."

Feng Shui bureaus and the like are everywhere in Hong Kong and Macau.

The more well-known ones include the old Lisboa Casino in the shape of a pigeon cage and the "Feng Shui War" in Central, Hong Kong.

There has been open and covert fighting between office buildings such as Bank of China Tower, Worldbank Building and Cheung Kong Center for a long time. As soon as rumors of "sharp knife evil" emerged about Bank of China Tower, cannons were set up on the roof of Worldbank Building, while Cheung Kong Center was designed to have four shields to resist the "evil spirit" from the two giants.

The island country invested in the World Financial Center in Lujiazui. The original design draft was called "two swords supporting the sun" and was intended to ruin the feng shui of the Shanghai market. Later, unable to withstand the pressure, it was ordered to be changed, and it became what Fan Wumian remembered.

Although some things are mysterious, people always prefer to believe them.

This time, the "Ten Thousand Souls Banner" has become a huge name, even overshadowing Emperor Qianlong. It has been placed in the Feng Shui treasure land of the Eastern Tombs for many years and was once blessed by a high monk. In the eyes of some Feng Shui masters, it is difficult to find a few objects more precious than it.

Huang Bo was stunned by what he heard, and suddenly remembered a lot of news in the past six months. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and continued the topic:

"It's said on the Internet that it was a treasure before, but now it's covered by several deceased people and has been tainted with evil spirits. It's really a powerful thing. But the Di'anmen Square, just by listening to the name, you can tell how powerful it is. If it's collected in your museum, Mr. Fan, it will definitely be able to keep it in place."

Fan Wumian was joking, and Huang Bo catered to his wishes.

After chatting about this topic for a while, Huang Bo immediately followed Fan Wumian's instructions and posted on Weibo:
——"I let you guys make a fuss, reposting it everywhere and making emoticons. Now, I've been sued by the person who collected the Ten Thousand Souls Banner."

Huang Bo's Weibo account had only 80 followers a few days ago, but after the incidents of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and the coffin board, the number of followers has increased to 173 million, making countless celebrities drool with envy.

Soon after Huang Bo posted it, it attracted many comments one after another. There was also a big V netizen who used the name "Entertainment Live Official Weibo Account" and wrote in the comment:
——"Are you really being sued? Brother Bo, please find some time to come to our show for an interview."

There was also a post below, which said
——"Taobao store 'Fatty Planet' is a wardrobe for obese people.

The boss’s wife ran off with her brother-in-law, and they’re selling off their stock at rock-bottom prices. Our boss’s coffin is about to collapse.”

Fan Wumian just went online and looked through the comment section, and found that the public opinion was on Huang Bo's side, so he didn't bother to worry about it.

He planned to wait until Huang Bo had finished taking advantage of the heat of being sued, and then communicate with him privately to see how to mediate the conflict between the two sides.

That night.

It was beyond Fan Wumian's expectations.

Before he could rush to communicate and resolve the issue, the news broke out from the Thai media.

According to a servant, the original buyer of the Qianlong Shroud was going to wrap it in the grave, but because it was too valuable, it was left behind by several of his children.
