My Identity As The World’s Richest Man Was Exposed On a Money Borrowing Television Program - Chapter 30

“Brothers, did you watch that live broadcast? The contestant used the excuse of house viewing to trick the program team into thinking that it was his house.”

“Is it that exciting? D*mn.”

“Hahahaha, with the live broadcast this time, anything can happen.”

“The program team is awesome. I’m tired of watching those actors pretend to be rich every day, but at least it’s entertaining.”

“It feels like this show is going to become one that cracks down on the fakes.”

“Well, this contestant should be fine. He seems to have quite a lot of antiques at home.”

…

In the live broadcast room, a scene was playing.

In the scene was a small room filled with quaint antiques, and it looked very old.

The contestant faced the camera and said confidently, “My ancestors have been collecting antiques for eighteen generations. These antiques were passed down from my father’s generation. They are very precious.”

“I usually like collecting antiques. I guess you can say it’s my hobby. Although they’re not worth much, I like how well they age.”

Collecting was a good lifestyle.

The program team had also grasped this key point, so they stayed on the topic.

“It seems that Mr. Thomson’s standard of living is not bad. Next, let’s evaluate the value of these antiques.”

The host signaled the professionals to start their evaluation.

“Blue and white porcelain from the Republic of China…”

“Modern marble thumb ring…”

“Jade Buddha from the Shennong Factory…”

“These are all not worth…” The host was about to praise him when he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

What the hell was it?

What was all this stuff here?

Not a single antique?

Were they all modern handicrafts?

“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter. As expected, he screwed up.”

“That blue and white porcelain from the Republic of China period might be worth a few dollars. Don’t tell me this brother found his antique on Taobao.”

“He is indeed a professional. I can’t believe he even knows which factory.”

“Are you blind? Didn’t you see the name of the factory written under the Jade Buddha?”

“D*mn, this contestant is a fool. Can’t you see that?”

“Don’t overthink it. This is all the contestant’s tricks. Since they don’t have it, they’ll make up for it with quantity.”

…

This contestant clearly did not expect that a professional would be so skilled to have immediately discovered the authenticity of these counterfeits.

He said with a serious expression, “Humans will always make mistakes. Come and take a look at this Shang Dynasty’s Four Goat Square Zun that was passed down from my great-great-great-great-grandfather. It’s priceless.”

He took out a box and opened it to reveal a small rusty cauldron inside. At first glance, it looked a little interesting.

The professional’s eyes lit up as he carefully picked up the small cauldron and looked at it.

“This thing embodies the style of the Shang Dynasty. If It’s real, it’s worth a lot… Wait, the rust here has fallen off.”

One of the professionals raised the small cauldron up into the air.

After removing the rust, he took a careful look at it. A few English words appeared in front of him.

“Made in China”

F*ck!

This professional could not help but swear.

After looking at it for so long, it was actually made in China.

The camera was also aimed at the bottom of the small cauldron.

“F * ck! Awesome, the product even fooled us.”

“This contestant is amazing. How did he get his hands on this thing?”

“Hahaha, my stomach hurts from laughing. It’s made in China!”

“To make this fake thing look real, this technique is really good. I almost believed it.”

“My god, it’s made in China. After all this time, this guy is just a collector of modern handicrafts.”

“I have a feeling that this episode’s contestants are going to screw up.”

“I want to go and take a look at that Thomson. Since he can invite Gates, let’s see how awesome he can be.”

…

At this moment, outside Thomson’s house, the program team’s staff had already set up the live broadcast equipment.

From the moment they set off to Thomson’s house, the live broadcast had already begun.

In the live broadcast room, there were hundreds of thousands of viewers.

Due to the burst in popularity of the previous episode, this show had gotten the attention of many.

Comments were flying across the live broadcast room.

“No way, the super boss’s home is just a commercial house in the neighborhood?”

“Hahahahaha, in the previous seasons, those who made it to the third round all lived in luxurious villas.”

“That’s because the show doesn’t give prior notice. On the last few seasons, people who looked rich but were not actually rich lived in remote villages. It’s time he stops his bragging.”

“If this Thompson, the one who invited big boss Gates, lives in this place, then I don’t think his standard of living will be much better. At most, he can be considered a well-off family.”

“Well-off family? Have you seen the first round? Thompson’s wife almost had a fall out with her family for borrowing tens of thousands of dollars. They definitely can’t be considered a well-off family.”

“That blogger is right. This Thompson is just an ordinary person. How can there be so many inconspicuous big shots in this world?”

“The program team probably felt that the internet was not taking their script well, so they didn’t prepare any. They must be prepared to abandon Thomson.”

…

They were right. Thomson now lived in an ordinary, 100-square-meters commercial house, with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. There was nothing special about it.

This commercial house was the one Alice had bought under Thomson’s name in order to stop her family from talking about it. They still had 30 years of mortgage to pay.

It was not as glamorous as it looked.

However, although this house was bought by Alice, the decoration was done by Thomson himself.

From laying bricks and tiles to some decorations in the house, they were all handled by Thomson, which relieved some of Alice’s pressure.

Most importantly, Alice told Thomson that she had bought it with all her money to give herself and him a small home. This made Thomson wanted to decorate it all the more.

Thomson did not like the ordinary decorations anyway, so he had some special requirements.

…

Standing outside the door, the director was a little nervous.

Normally speaking, he should have communicated with Thomson and then thought of ways to fake it and make some gimmicks.

However, after knowing that Thomson could call Gates over, the director could not be bothered to waste his energy.

“Boss, whether the show can be popular or not depends on your capability,” the director said to himself, conflicted.

At this time, the door opened, and Alice appeared in front of the camera.

Looking at so many people outside the door, Alice was at a loss, but she still said politely, “Everyone, please come in.”

Then, all the staff members entered the room.
