[So did this actor use drugs or not? If he used drugs and can still act @State Administration of Radio and Television, it's time for you to step in.]

[Xu Yuqing? I know him. Wasn't he proven innocent back then?]

[Wow, is Chen Chengrong directing a new movie again? Since the last movie he directed... let me count, it seems like it's been over four years.]

[Chen Chengrong? The last movie he made was awful. I even went to see it in theaters and got scammed out of my money. Tsk.]

[There's nothing interesting about watching them here. I'd rather go look at two handsome guys, hehe.]

[Exactly, exactly. One actor with a scandal and one director who makes bad movies—what good movie could they possibly make together? What's there to watch? I'm off to look at handsome guys, hehe. Let me lick, lick, lick.]

[Xu Yuqing actually terminated his contract with Star Universe Entertainment? And what kind of company is Jinbai Entertainment?]

[Jinbai Entertainment? I've never even heard that name. Some crappy little company, probably.]

[Tsk, looks like Xu Yuqing's acting career is about to end.]

[His acting career ended ages ago, didn't it? Still, Xu Yuqing is really handsome. What a pity. But those two handsome guys are even better-looking. I'm still going to check out the handsome passersby. At least they don't have scandals. Just lick and be done with it. It'd be great if those handsome guys entered the entertainment industry too.]

Xu Yuqing's fans also saw the surge in attention. Though they helplessly watched their idol get cursed at and slandered, they took advantage of the traffic and swarmed Jinbai Entertainment's official account, asking what was going on with the movie and whether Xu Yuqing had joined its cast voluntarily.

Most importantly, they wanted to know exactly what kind of company Jinbai Entertainment was. It had better not be some tiny workshop.

Just as such comments gradually increased, someone else released photos of Cai Jinbai and Xuan Yu.

—They were photos of the two appearing at S City Airport.

They had clearly been secretly taken by a passerby. The angle was not particularly good, yet it did nothing to diminish their poise and charm. The casually snapped pictures were no less striking than the carefully staged airport photos of celebrities, perhaps even better.

[Ahhh, they're way too handsome! And there are two of them!]

[Saved the photos. Please give us more!]

[Handsome guys are still the best. Unlike that other side, which is such a mess.]

[The other side? What? What gossip did I miss this time?]

[Haha, are you talking about that actor surnamed Xu and Director Chen? True, watching them is nowhere near as good as looking at these two handsome guys.]

[Holy shit, holy shit, go look! I'm so shocked I could do sit-ups! These two handsome guys are actually the president and vice president of Jinbai Entertainment!]

[What? What kind of joke is that? They have absolutely nothing to do with each other. How could that be possible?]

[If I'm joking, I'm a pig. Now they're totally connected. Oh my god, the official account has claimed them, and their bios are already up. Go see for yourselves if you don't believe me. Here's the link.]

Even more netizens rushed in to leave shocked comments, and countless "holy shits" flooded the page.

Every single one was an expression of disbelief and astonishment. This turn of events had completely exceeded their expectations.

Just then, when Xu Yuqing's fans thought they would once again receive no response, Jinbai Entertainment's official account suddenly posted an update.

—[Hello, everyone. I'm Little Jin, the little assistant running Jinbai Entertainment's official account. I'll be managing the company account from now on. Since everyone has so many questions about our company and the actors under it, Little Jin will take this rare opportunity to answer them one by one.]

[Today has really been a magical day. Little Jin never expected my two bosses to go viral online! So, taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Little Jin would like to formally introduce Jinbai Entertainment's two founder-presidents, @CaiJinbaiPresidentCai and @XuanYuVicePresidentXuan. That's right, they're the ice-cream handsome guys everyone likes. Reposting video, reposting photos—these two are our company's president and vice president. Why not guess which one is President Cai and which is Vice President Xuan?~]

As soon as the post went out, whether they were already browsing the page or had just clicked into it, all the netizens stared blankly at their screens. Only after being stunned for a long while did they finally come back to themselves, their minds flooded with "holy shit" as they tremblingly left comments expressing their shock.

[...I recognize every word, so why can't I understand them when they're put together?]

[Wait... these two handsome guys are the presidents of a company? What kind of novel-come-to-life domineering president plot is this?]

[The key point is! These two handsome guys are the bosses of Xu Yuqing's new company! I was just mocking Jinbai Entertainment for being some crappy little company... Oh god, could this be any more of a coincidence? The company bosses and the actor trending at the same time? Are you sure this wasn't bought?]

[These two are the bosses of our idol's company? They're so young? And so good-looking?]

[So what exactly is Jinbai Entertainment's background? With presidents who look like this... they could debut on the spot. Oh right, I'm going to check their bios. The president is named Cai Jinbai? Jinbai... so the company was named after him.]

For a time, the netizens' desire to investigate was completely stirred up, and they all went to search for information on Cai Jinbai and Xuan Yu.

Then, on their biography pages, they spotted one extremely important detail—the address of Jinbai Entertainment.

Some well-informed netizens immediately realized what it meant.

Even those who did not know could search the address themselves, and when they came back, their faces were filled with shock once more.

When they saw Xu Yuqing's fans still commenting beneath Jinbai Entertainment's official account, they could not help replying.

[How is your idol joining some little company? Is a company that owns an entire central office building considered small?]

[That's a landmark building in S City's New Urban District! An entire office tower—damn, that's seriously impressive. This isn't something some moderately wealthy person could buy. They have looks, but they have even more money. And both company presidents are so handsome. Did they save the world in their past lives?]

[Guys, breaking news: Director Chen Chengrong's new movie was also invested in by Jinbai Entertainment! So can we say these two presidents saw the potential in Director Chen's new movie and invested in it? Is that why they had an actor from their company play the third male lead?]

[Stop worrying already. With a company this big, what could they possibly squeeze out of your idol? Besides, Xu Yuqing still has scandalous rumors hanging over him.]

[Handsome guys really are handsome guys. Their backgrounds are also at a level us ordinary people can only look up to. Hiss, Jinbai Entertainment's building probably isn't any worse than Star Universe Entertainment's, right?]

[It's not merely no worse. Star Universe Entertainment doesn't own an entire central office building in the New Urban District. They probably couldn't afford one either. Do you understand what landmark means? I suggest you all look up the news about the bidding for the New Urban District landmark building back then. The bidders were all big shots with immeasurable assets, and the competition was a bloodbath. What the hell is Star Universe Entertainment compared to that? The sums of money involved were beyond anything you could imagine in your lifetimes. Yet Jinbai Entertainment's president not only bought an entire building outright, he also bought the surrounding land. Tsk tsk, what does that mean? This president's wealth is simply beyond comparison. In the country, he's probably—no, definitely—the richest man. Oh right, I forgot to mention that both President Cai and Vice President Xuan came from overseas.]

[No wonder there were photos of them at the airport...]

As more netizens joined in, the trending search rankings were completely occupied by searches related to Jinbai Entertainment.

It exploded!!!

[#JinbaiEntertainment#]

[#HandsomePresident#]

[#WhichOneIsPresidentCaiAndWhichOneIsVicePresidentXuan#]

[#XuYuqingNewCompany#]

And so on...

Xu Yuqing's fans were all dumbfounded. Once they came to their senses, they were overjoyed and clapped in celebration.

Wonderful! It was not some tiny workshop company!

Wonderful! The company owned an entire office building, and its presidents were so handsome. They definitely would not exploit their idol!

Wonderful! Little Xu had someone backing him now!

Then came the mockery and rebuttals aimed at the antis.

[Haha, see that? This is the tiny, crappy company you were talking about. Can your company buy an entire office building? One in the center of the New Urban District, too—a landmark building, understand?]

[This time they must be completely crushed. Our Little Xu found an especially amazing entertainment company.]

[My mistake, I apologize. I shouldn't have called Jinbai Entertainment an obscure little company. With this kind of financial strength, you'll definitely soar to great heights afterward! Go, go, go!]

[I apologize too, haha. I was wrong too. Who said this company wasn't good? This company is incredible.]

[Little Xu, you have to do well at your new company.]

The fans celebrated across the board, while the antis gritted their teeth in secret.

At the same time, the netizens who had already been eagerly shipping the two handsome men in the videos and photos were even more excited.

What? The handsome guys were presidents too? One president and one vice president? Oh my god, what kind of novel plot was this? They had founded a company together, hehe.

[Which one is President Cai, and which one is Vice President Xuan? I'm guessing the one in black is Vice President Xuan, and the one wearing glasses is President Cai. Because the one below spoils the one above—in terms of company rank—and because the one above puts in the effort, while the one below acts spoiled because he's favored, hehe. I won't spell out what that means. Those who know, know. Hand-over-mouth laughing jpg.]

As soon as this comment appeared, it received the most likes.

Little Jin, the official account assistant, replied: [Correct! The one in black is our Vice President Xuan, while the one wearing glasses is our President Cai.]

The netizen immediately followed up with a question: [Then did I guess the relationship between the two correctly?]

Little Jin: [Yes, one is the president and the other is the vice president.]

Netizen: [...]

Was this Little Jin assistant pretending to be clueless with her?

Forget it. How could they possibly admit to something like that? She would just ship them in secret.

Cai Jinbao bounced twice beside Cai Jinbai. After replying to the netizen's question, he tilted his little body in confusion and asked, "Master, did Jinbao answer incorrectly?"
