My Identity As The World’s Richest Man Was Exposed On a Money Borrowing Television Program - Chapter 24

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Gates’s car was exposed, no one at the scene suspected Gates’s identity anymore.

Just like that, the doubts about his identity disappeared, and everyone turned their attention to Thomson once again.

“In other words, the richest man… really did call Big Brother Gates over.”

“F*ck. To be able to call the boss over so easily, this person must be a big shot.”

“I’m sorry, my rich friend. I’m young and ignorant. If I’ve offended you, you can do anything to me.”

“Please forgive my ignorance. I can slap myself a few times as an apology.”

“We mocked the wrong person!”

“I thought he was a nobody, but he turned out to be a big shot!”

Many lamented, but some who had nothing better to do suddenly started to stir up some drama.

“Hey, wait. Someone once said that if Gates really comes, he would swallow three catty of feces!”

“I have evidence. I’ll call out @OnlyLoveAkali for everyone. Brother, please come out and eat sh*t.”

“I followed a few people before who said that he would eat sh*t too. To @MyUziIsTheStrongest, come out now! It’s now doubled!”

“@LeaderIsMe, don’t shoot, but I remember you said you would do double of that!”

“Where are those people who said they wanted to eat sh*t?”

“Nonsense. Don’t you have to poop first before eating it?”

“Okay, brothers. I’ll eat it!”

“I haven’t eaten for the past few days, so I can’t poop. Who wants to give me some?”

“Okay, that’s enough. The septic tank is almost dry.”

“Come, let’s feed them sh*t!”

…

Whatever the reason, Thomson could just wave at Gates, and Gates would appear. Based on this ability alone, Thomson was definitely not an ordinary person.

Even so, everyone still ignored his identity as the richest man in the world.

If he really was the richest man in the world, why would he participate in this show?

All of the richest people in the world stood on the highest floor of the tallest building with a glass of red wine that was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in their hands, overlooking the clouds.

On the other hand, Gates’s appearance had left Alice dumbfounded.

She didn’t know what was going on, but her logic told her everything was fake.

Did she not know who her husband was?

If he was really the richest man in the world and if Gates was really his friend, then why was he living in a 60-square-meter house?

With this thought in mind, she quickly set her eyes on the director.

The director’s face was calm, as if nothing had happened. In fact, he was so calm that it made Alive mistaken that all this had something to do with the director.

However, the director was not calm at all. He was so shocked that he froze up.

At first, when he heard that Thomson had asked Gates to come over and bring something for him, he was very frustrated. He even invited a fake Gates over to support Thomson.

It had never crossed his mind that Thomson would actually invite Gates over. Moreover, Gates was so respectful toward Thomson that it was like the director was in a dream.

Only then he realized that his program had unexpectedly found an inconspicuous big shot.

At this moment, they were already at the end of the show.

Although the host was equally shocked, the staff did not allow him time to react. Instead, they told him that he had to end the show in three minutes.

As such, the host stood on the stage and began to announce the results of the competition.

“Surprise, surprise. I didn’t expect to see our world’s internet leader, Mr. Gates, on the stage.”

“This is simply a blessing in disguise. Alright, everyone, please turn your attention back to the show.”

“What more is there to say about the competition of connections? Mr. Thomson won the second round by a landslide. Let’s congratulate this gentleman, and his prize money is now one million dollars. With that said, every guest would also receive a cash prize of one million dollars regardless of whether they’d get through to the next round or not!”

He took the lead in clapping as soon as he finished his sentence.

The audience members started to clap and cheer too.

Under the deafening applause, Thomson and his wife left the stage while the other nine guests stood there in a daze. They looked as if they had just seen a ghost.

As the show came to an end, the audience left the seats.

The other two guests, who had gone through to the next round, also took the opportunity to go up to a staff member and brought up their requests.

Their request was simple.

Could the program team let them go? They did not want to participate in the show anymore.

The reason was also simple.

With Thomson here, these people felt that they would just be an extra in the show, and it would be extremely awkward for them in the next round of competition.

They might even end up as a joke.

This situation was akin to a person with a monthly salary of 100,000 dollars and a child competing to see who was richer.

Why would they make things so difficult for themselves?

The program team was very troubled by this request. If they agreed to it, there would be no one in the show. However, it was hard for them to not agree to it because the guests had already made a request.

In this situation, they could not help but turn to look at the director. After all, he was the one who had the final say in the show.

“Alright, I’ll agree to it but you can’t take the million-dollar prize money. I can only give you half of it.”

The few of them did not look happy. However, once they considered how humiliating the whole thing would be, they simply agreed.

After all, to be able to enter the third round as a nobody was considered an achievement.

It was not worth it for them to throw away their pride and dignity just for a mere 500,000 dollars!
