Rebirth of the King of Waves

Chapter 89: Guo Chen's Obsession

“All men are born unequal, but everyone has the right to pursue equality.”

"The total assets in my stock account are probably over 200 million now."

"I saw the spirit of the Chinese people in 'Nezha 2'."

"Tell me! Tell me! Why? Baby why? If my girlfriend and I go out to get a room, is that rape?"

"We will never compromise with traitors who sell out our country!"

“Individuals will be held accountable.”

"Litigation is not easy. Both the search for evidence and the filing of a lawsuit consume a great deal of time, energy, and patience. I feel the staff of the relevant departments handling this matter have worked very hard. I will donate 300 million yuan to our local authorities. Yes, the donation will be public, but I will never actively interfere in the case. We will handle the case as it should be handled. We welcome supervision from the whole society."

Late at night, 12:16...

Sunday, May 2025, 2.

It was pitch black in Guo Chen’s small rental house.

He sat at his desk like a stone, staring at his cell phone screen, motionless.

The dim light from the phone screen shone on his face.

Guo Chen's face was greasy and his eyes were dull for a long time. From time to time, a fierce look flashed in his eyes and his expression twisted.

After returning from the law firm at noon, he basically maintained this state.

Apart from going to the toilet, he just sat there in a daze.

Don't eat even if you're hungry.

I don't sleep even when I'm tired.

My brain is clearly in a mess, but my thoughts are inexplicably jumping around, and I am running into all kinds of random thoughts uncontrollably.

After a while, Ning Bishu was chopped into meat sauce.

Sometimes he asked Lu Xueqin to kneel in front of him and call him dad.

For a while, I was fantasizing about how to press Mu Shanming under me...

Of course he thought of many other things.

From how he won various awards along the way since he was a child, successfully entered a key university, to how he struggled to get an internship in a law firm after graduation, and then gradually became stronger step by step, from an assistant to a lawyer in a big law firm to gradually being able to stand on his own.

During this process, some people insulted and cursed him, some despised and abused him, but of course there were also people who understood him and even admired him. He gradually accumulated the depth of his life, had his own fan base, and became a well-known lawyer for economic dispute cases on the Internet.

There was a time, long ago, when Guo Chen felt like a winner. His life and career were on track; he only needed one more opportunity to become famous. Then, without further fantasies, he could win Mu Shanming's heart.

His success will bring him everything.

However, this process was suddenly interrupted at the beginning of this spring.

From the moment he started arguing with Ning Bishu on Xbo on the second day of the Lunar New Year, his life spiraled out of his control.

Even though he has not suffered any actual losses so far, his number of X-blog fans has even increased by tens of thousands.

But Guo Chen just couldn't swallow the anger in his heart.

During those few quiet hours, Guo Chen thought countless times about taking up his sword and killing Ning Bishu together. As for a reason... was it necessary? He simply couldn't be happy. He couldn't eat or sleep until Ning Bishu was dead.

Guo Chen couldn't even tell whether he was jealous or hateful towards Ning Bishu.

The box office posters of "Nezha 2" released by Ning Bishu at 12 o'clock every night irritated his nerves every day.

Sometimes, I even send it multiple times a day.

This beast!!
Guo Chen sat like this until around ten o'clock in the evening. He was finally so hungry that he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to order a takeout meal with a lot of oil and salt. He temporarily put aside his weight loss and fitness plan and indulged himself.

But when I picked up the phone, I subconsciously opened X message first.

When I saw a red dot on my Moments, I clicked on it out of habit...

So it was no surprise that I saw Ning Bishu's schedule for tonight.

At around 8 o'clock tonight, Ning Bishu first spent 18600 yuan at a high-end restaurant in Shanghai.

The meal cost nearly 20,000 yuan.

There is also a video below the attached nine-grid photo.

Guo Chen couldn't help but click on this video to watch it.

In the video, the chef served Ning Bishu and his companions a long plate of tofu carved into the shape of the Great Wall. He then doused the tofu in a mixture of Maotai and other liquors. Then, with a flick of the fire, a flash of flame erupted, instantly forming a long dragon. The beacon tower on the tofu shone brightly. Amid the shouts of men and women in the video, the chef loudly announced the dish.

"Playing tricks on the princes with beacon fires!"

Actually, the taste is not that good.

Ning Bishu was eating in the restaurant at the time. Apart from smelling the aroma of wine in the room, the food he ate was actually just like that.

I feel like the IQ tax is very high.

But this thing is full of gimmicks.

Even Dog Brother gave a like under this video.

——Gou Ge is the gangster who lent Ning Bishu 1500 million through the introduction of Hechen Law Firm.

However, the same scene made Guo Chen look hideous.

The intense hatred for Ning Bishu burned even more fiercely than the flames in the video.

And the flames in the video seemed to burn into his heart through the screen.

Jealousy and hatred, wrapped in flames, burned more and more fiercely.

Guo Chen really forgot to eat this time.

He went crazy and started searching for Ning Bishu's negative information on the Internet.

But after searching everywhere, he found that not only were all the negative information spread by him himself and were completely useless, but some video clips that just appeared on the Internet today almost scared him half to death.

The work efficiency of Bai Sujie's TV station is indeed quite high.

The material that was just produced in the morning was already a finished film by the evening.

Guo Chen searched for more than an hour before he was sure that the phone conversation between him and Ning Bishu had been completely cut by the TV station. Not a single second of the content was broadcast. Only then did he feel a little relieved.

While secretly cursing Lu Xueqian for using him as a knife, he was also grateful to Lu Xueqian for saving his life.

Of course, Guo Chen didn't know that this was not done by Lu Xueqian at all. Lu Xueqian just called Bai Sujie and learned that Guo Chen's part had been cut. He didn't say anything more and of course didn't tell Guo Chen.

So after scaring himself this time, Guo Chen was completely starving.

When he returned to his circle of friends, all he saw was Ning Bishu with two of his men and a petite, pretty girl by his side, strolling along the Bund in Shanghai, then going to the mall and the cinema...

Then at exactly 12 o'clock, another official box office poster of "Nezha 2" appeared on Ning Bishu's circle of friends on time.

"Congratulations to 'Nezha 2' for reaching 114 billion at the box office!"

Guo Chen stared at the picture for a long, long time, unable to breathe.

He looked at today's date over and over again, countless times.

确实是2025年2月16日，正月十九。《哪抓2》只花了19天时间，票房就几乎要到120亿了。

There are even 10 days left before the time limit of the bet.

"The one who rides on the horse..."

"Ning Bishu! F**K!!"

Guo Chenshuang clenched his fists tightly, his whole body trembling.

Hungry, tired, angry...

Dark environment...

Lost face...

Mu Shan understood Tian's contempt and disdainful look...

The woman and younger brother around Ning Bishu...

Revenge and ambition in my heart...

Countless messy things are intertwined at this moment.

"Grass mud horse!"

"Grass mud horse!"

"Grass mud horse!"

Guo Chen pounded the desk with both hands and cursed loudly.

Why!
How can a skinny loser like him who graduated from a crappy school earn 200 million!

How could a scumbag, illiterate man like him be able to fuck such a beautiful woman named Xiao Taotao!

Why can’t I, Guo Chen, do it?

I am so much better than him!
How am I not as good as him?
Is it because he won 200 million at the gambling table?

he……

he……

Guo Chen suddenly stopped.

He quickly turned on his computer like crazy and searched for information about "Nezha 2". The screen, even to this day, even at this moment, was still full of good news about "Nezha 2" and XX Media.

"Nezha 2" is aiming for the top spot in the global animation box office!"

"Nezha 2 is expected to enter the top ten in the global box office..."

"Nezha 2" has been postponed to March 30th..."

The more Guo Chen looked, the faster his heart beat.

In my head, a voice, like the call of a deep-sea mermaid, full of danger and temptation...

It will continue to rise!
It will continue to rise!
The stock price of XX Media will rise to at least 50 yuan!
Ning Bishu also said that!

It can increase to 50 yuan!
Guo Chen's whole body was shaking even more violently.

Why can he earn this money but I can’t?

I'll lose to him?!

The kind of idiot who can’t even get into a 211 university!

Guo Chen suddenly grabbed his phone and threw all his worries behind him.

He found a number and dialed it.

The other end rang for a few seconds before a deep, rough voice rang out, "Who is it?"

"Brother Gou, it's me, Guo Chen!"

"Guo Chen?"

"Guo Chen from Hechen Law Firm!"

"Oh, Lawyer Guo, what's going on?"

"I...I..." Guo Chen was so nervous that he couldn't speak. "I want to borrow some money."

"What's wrong? Is there any difficulty?"

"No, no, I just saw a good investment project."

"Haha, so urgent? How much do you want to borrow?"

"The more the better! Can I borrow... 1000 million?!"

"Huh? Didn't your law firm already borrow 1500 million? I haven't heard the economy is so hot recently..."

"No, it's me."

"yourself?"

"Correct!"

“Is there a law firm guarantee?”

"……No."

"If you don't have it, I can't borrow that much." Dog Brother said, "If you have something to pledge, like a house or something, I can lend you one or two million. We're all family, so I can charge you a lower interest."

"I don't have a house...will a car be okay?"

"What car?"

"Mazda."

"..." Gou Ge was silent for a moment. "Lawyer Guo, how about this? For Mr. Lu's sake, I'll lend you one million. I can transfer the money to you tomorrow morning, but you have to ask Mr. Lu to be your guarantor."

"Guarantee? I don't want Mr. Lu to know."

"That's five hundred thousand at most."

"Only five hundred thousand?"

"do you want?"

Guo Chen thought about it and decided that 500,000 yuan would be fine! At worst, he could just go to a bank, find a small loan, or some other...

He gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay! Five hundred thousand is five hundred thousand!"

Dog brother smiled and kindly reminded him: "Lawyer Guo, investing is no joke, be careful."

"No! I will definitely win!" Guo Chen murmured, as if he had gone crazy.

Dog brother just hung up the phone.
