Me! A disgraced celebrity! Starting by seeking justice for impoverished students.

The atmosphere in the live stream room was lively.

Jiang Chen checked the time; it was still early before dinner. He smiled and said to the camera, "You guys can delete the files on the hard drive first, no rush."

"It's still early. If you have any legal questions, feel free to ask me on the microphone—it's free!"

Before the words were even finished, the icon for requesting a live chat started flashing wildly.

Almost instantly, it reached 99+!

After Jiang Chen's performance in court this morning, netizens believe that he is still very reliable in terms of popularizing the law!

"Wow, so many people?"

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow and casually picked one.

The call connected, and a young man's voice came from the other end, sounding clearly excited and nervous.

"Brother Jiang... Hello! I'm your fan!"

"I've been watching since the episode where you talked about how to eat pandas!"

Jiang Chen's lips twitched.

This guy... can't he say something nice?!

If this gets out, people will keep saying that I taught others how to legally eat pandas.

Is that correct?

"Thank you, that episode was for legal education, not a mukbang (eating broadcast)."

"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Chen asked seriously, taking a deep breath.

"Brother Jiang, just call me Xiao Li. I'm 23 years old and just graduated."

"I'd like to connect with you via video call to ask you a question related to starting a business..."

Jiang Chen nodded: "Speak."

"that is……"

Xiao Li stammered, his voice suddenly dropping a few decibels.

"I want to open a store that sells * (letter).

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, hardly believing his ears.

"What?"

"It's... the one that sells *(beep~ smart silencer)!"

Xiao Li's voice lowered even further, "You know, we're selling service, we're selling romance, we're selling quality!"

The live stream was silent for a fraction of a second.

Then, the comments section exploded!

【？？？？？】

【Intrigue? Is this the kind of intrigue I'm thinking of?】

[Hahahaha! I can practically feel Jiang Chen's utter bewilderment through the screen!]

[Brother, are you here for advice or to turn yourself in?]

[Is it this explosive right from the start?]

[Jiang Chen: What questions do I, a general lawyer, ask every day?]

Honestly, even with Jiang Chen as legal counsel, this kind of shop wouldn't be able to open!

Is everything this open now? Are these kinds of things being turned into college student entrepreneurship?

Jiang Chen's forehead creased with a few black lines. He rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

"Hiss... Are you serious?"

Xiao Li's tone was very sincere: "I'm serious!"

"Brother Jiang, I want to start my own business. I've already done some market research and I think this industry has potential!"

Is it promising?

Jiang Chen's lips twitched suddenly.

Let alone him, he himself knows that this industry has a promising future and is extremely profitable.

But this thing is already written into the criminal law!

As we all know, any business idea that makes money can be found plenty of times under criminal law!

Even if you had connections, you wouldn't dare to do this!

Jiang Chen took a deep breath, sat up straight, and his expression became professional.

"Okay, Xiao Li, then I'll tell you seriously."

"According to the relevant provisions of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law and the Criminal Law, prostitution is illegal."

"Organizing, harboring, or introducing others to prostitution constitutes a criminal offense!"

"The kind of shop you're trying to open is illegal and criminal."

"I suggest you give up on this idea as soon as possible."

It's hard to imagine that a recent college graduate would want to open this kind of shop!

Is this a place that offers room and board right after graduation?

Xiao Li's tone became urgent: "No, no! Brother Jiang, you've misunderstood! I don't want to open that kind of shop!"

"I'm going to open a... legal and legitimate business!"

Jiang Chen's vision went black again.

Legal and reasonable?

How can this thing be legal and reasonable?!

The live stream chat exploded instantly.

[Hahahaha... This can be legal and reasonable? I've never heard of such a thing before!]

All I can say is, this guy is incredibly audacious, daring to do a live stream asking about this kind of problem!

I reckon the cyber police have already locked down this guy's account!

Well, there's nothing we can do about it. He's starting a business, so who taught him to do it this way?!

"No matter what you do, it can't be legal or reasonable!"

Jiang Chen paused, then emphasized.

"No matter how you package it or try to circumvent it, if it's essentially prostitution, it's illegal!"

"Whether you operate online or offline, or you're just pretending to be something you're not, the police will find out in no time!"

"You'll have just graduated, and if you go in and spend a few years there, what will become of your life?"

He genuinely didn't want to see this recent college graduate go to prison.

He clearly has a bright future ahead of him.

Why are you thinking about things like this all the time?

The screen was flooded with comments again!

Jiang Chen's words were earnest and well-intentioned; she truly meant well for him!

[Dude, what's your level of capability? You think you can open a legal and legitimate business?]

If you could legalize it, then we'd be trespassing into a royal palace!

[Jiang Chen: Thank you so much, you even gave me a difficult problem!]

Xiao Li's voice carried a hint of grievance: "But Brother Jiang, I really want to do something legal and reasonable."

Just as Jiang Chen was about to continue his lecture, Xiao Li cut him off and finished his sentence.

"Because... I'm selling mannequins!"

"It's the inflatable kind! Not the real giggling kind!"

"Brother Jiang... what are you thinking about!"

The live stream went silent the moment those words were spoken.

Jiang Chen's expression changed from serious to blank.

From confusion to helplessness.

My helplessness turned into wanting to hit someone!

"What did you say?!"

"A mannequin! You mean an adult toy! The kind made of silicone!" Xiao Li's voice returned to normal.

"I've investigated, and this industry is legal! As long as you obtain the relevant business license, don't involve real people, and don't engage in illegal activities, you can operate normally!"

At this point, Xiao Li changed the subject.

"Hiss... Brother Jiang, what did you think I was going to drive... what was it again?"

Jiang Chen's lips twitched, and he fell silent.

The black lines on his forehead had increased.

Was I... tricked?

The comments section was filled with laughter:

[Hahaha! So that's how it is. It's perfectly legal and legitimate after all!]

What does "cluck cluck" mean? I don't understand.

[To the person upstairs: Your task right now is to study hard, not to understand this nonsense!]

[So the "sex toys" he was referring to were adult products! Not porn!]

Was Xiao Li doing this on purpose? Absolutely on purpose!

Jiang Chen took a deep breath, his expression turning helpless.

"You...please be more specific next time!"

"Adult product stores are legal, but they need to obtain a business license, medical device business registration, and comply with relevant government regulations."

"No false advertising, and no obscene content."

"Also, pay attention to tax issues."

He paused, stared at the camera with a resentful expression, and said, word by word.

"Next time you consult, please make sure you explain things completely."

"Otherwise... I almost sent you to jail!"

I originally thought this guy was incredibly audacious, but it turns out he's just someone who skirts the edges of legality!

If given the chance, Jiang Chen really wanted to send him in!
