The post-production edited show included many controversial elements, and they even subtly jumped in to steer the narrative, hyping up the topic of contestants inviting guest supporters in later stages, only to have celebrities show up and completely dominate, which attracted a huge crowd of onlookers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I wanted to say this during the live stream. It was supposed to be just guest support, with the focus still on the contestants themselves, competing based on their own abilities. But that live stream room was full of people there just for the guest supporters. Doesn't that count as cheating?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Right! And I saw on that one person's account before, they went to meet some top-tier male singer, planning to appear together singing in the finals! If the production team hadn't changed the rules later, banning such behavior, the final round would have been an absolute chaotic circus.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hehe, don't even mention it. When the production team revised the rules, so many people were cursing them out. Contestants made sarcastic, insinuating remarks, and fans of the guest supporters who didn't get to see their favorites also mocked the production team for not being able to play fair. It was honestly hilarious. If the production team hadn't emphasized fairness, the finals really would have turned into someone else's concert.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ah, I know that one! Was it that blogger called Feifei? He was being sarcastic about Handsome He and Brother Xiao back then, secretly liking anti-fan comments, hinting that Handsome He took shortcuts and Xiao He interfered with the competition rules. Super cringe.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[What? Who? He had the nerve to be sarcastic about my Brother Xiao? What did our Little Box ever do to him? Brother Xiao was abroad the entire time during \"Public Enemy Number One\" recording. He never said he would help support Handsome He's live stream competition, and he definitely didn't help Handsome He rally his own fans during the competition. He only casually promoted the show during his own live stream *after* Handsome He was eliminated. What does any of that have to do with our Xiao He?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also said the production team deliberately used their 'gege' and 'jiejie' to stir up heat. I'm honestly dying of laughter. As if the production team wouldn't know that having those people appear in the finals would attract a massive wave of fans to watch? But they still didn't do it in the end. Besides, the main investor behind this variety show is Linghui Entertainment. What level of heat their boss, Xiao He, has right now is plain for all to see. If they really wanted traffic, they could have just stuck to Brother Xiao's name recognition and ridden on his coattails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also said the production team deliberately used their 'gege' and 'jiejie' to stir up heat.

I'm just chasing the latest episodes of \"Public Enemy Number One\" now, feeling like I'm watching something that could be gone any minute, terrified that someone will suddenly have a scandal and then the show is GG.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[But to be fair, I think those few people from Huangshi Media are pretty good. They all have real skills and genuine talent. It's just that this name is ridiculously tacky. I'm really curious what their boss was thinking, choosing such an awful-sounding name.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hahaha, I also think the Huangshi Media people are hilarious. I heard their boss seems to be a rich second-generation heir. If his business fails and the company goes bankrupt, he has to go back home and have babies, becoming a breeding stud. So they're all scared and desperately fighting for rankings.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[What? So it's Huangshi (Royal Knight), not Huangtu (Royal Dirt)? My apologies, my apologies. I kept reading it wrong.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[That's too funny. So it's not about going back to inherit the family business?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I think I know a little bit about this guy. He really has some metaphysics about him. He starts one company, it collapses. Starts another, it collapses. I think making him go back home to have babies and open a side account is genuinely his father's last resort.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[That's pretty tragic...]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the heat for \"Public Enemy Number One\" climbed another level, with many people following the discussions and munching on melon seeds, an entirely unexpected person also blew up alongside it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xiao He received another call from that President Huang, he even thought the other party was coming to demand an explanation, wondering if the matter of reduced screen time had been discovered by that media company, who then went to complain to President Huang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the hearty laughter from the other end of the line, however, Xiao He knew he had worried for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, President Huang said with satisfaction, \"It really has to be President Xiao. Your luck truly complements my worthless son. My heart can finally rest easy now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao He answered the phone while checking the situation online, then found himself both amused and exasperated. \"President Huang, I really don't deserve such praise. This is clearly the result of everyone's joint efforts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that with the heat of \"Public Enemy Number One,\" some of the participating contestants had successfully stood out and entered the public eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them were the artists from Young Master Huang Junhao's company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as netizens discussed, this Young Master Huang also inexplicably blew up, becoming even more popular than the \"Public Enemy Number One\" variety show itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roasting from his artists was also memorable enough to leave a deep impression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although I've always been a flop at the company, our boss is actually a pretty good guy. The treatment he gives us is great. Besides, how tough is the job market right now! If the company goes bankrupt, I'm afraid I'll never find another boss who's such a gullible spendthrift again. Then my current days of eating and drinking on the company dime would be over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So said a certain shop-reviewing internet celebrity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our boss? To be honest, he's really not cut out to be a boss! I think he has a better sense for the internet than I do. Just his history of squandering the family fortune alone could get him an account with millions of followers. It's just that it probably won't work in the future. After the company goes bankrupt, he has to go back home and have babies... Why? I heard his dad seems ready to give up on him, forcing him to go back and open a new account.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So said a certain looks-focused internet celebrity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several artists under Huangshi Media took turns roasting their boss in their live stream rooms. So, somehow, Huang Junhao was sitting in his company while fame fell from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When everyone woke up, they realized Boss Huang Junhao had blown up! He was more popular than his own employees!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Junhao himself was utterly confused, even thinking his old man saw him struggling so miserably and finally couldn't take it anymore, deciding to use an invisible hand to help promote his company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the reality was that internet traffic sometimes just didn't play by the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even President Huang himself couldn't have imagined that his son's years of black history as a spendthrift would become the catalyst for blowing up online years later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was too ashamed to tell anyone about this good-for-nothing son's black history, let alone think about using it for marketing—his son might not care about face, but he, the father, still did!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But wow, the netizens dug it all up anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at it this way, even Xiao He himself wanted to laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below is a classic summary from a certain netizen:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[So how exactly did Young Master Huang manage to create companies at every single economic boom, and still end up losing money and going bankrupt?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I used to think that standing at the cusp of a trend meant even a pig could take off. Now, seeing Young Master Huang, I've suddenly realized that some pigs, even when blown directly at, really can't get off the ground, not even a little bit!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Young Master Huang, listen to your dad. Go home, kid. Open a side account! Your dad's had it tough too!]\u003C\u002Fp>",1524,"2026-05-29T18:50:39.541Z","2026-06-01T04:29:59.536Z",1,"novelbin.me","a7d984301dc906cd0111a752891a4b6f5fe59051f8b0e98bde103a9bf205e5af","brother-dao-took-the-entertainment-industry-by-s-chapter-495","brother-dao-took-the-entertainment-industry-by-s-chapter-493",734,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbrother-dao-took-the-entertainment-industry-by-s-cover.jpg"]
