Nine hundred million in termination fees, doubled, would amount to 1.8 billion.

“Alright, I want you to work on increasing that amount during this period,” Si Fuqing said with a cool tone. “Additionally, investigate all the illegal activities committed by Tianle Media.”

She recalled Jiang Changning mentioning that Tianle Media never treated their artists as humans, especially those with lower popularity.

Just last year, four artists under Tianle Media had died—either declared suicides or sudden deaths due to excessive stress.

The company had completely shrugged off any responsibility.

But, of course, things were never that simple.

“No problem, Miss Si,” Ling Feng paused, then chuckled, “You’re very kind, Miss Si.”

Having fought legal battles for many years and encountered various types of people, Ling Feng found someone like Si Fuqing to be quite unique.

Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow, her tone leisurely, “Perhaps, Attorney Ling, you misunderstand me. I’m far from being kind.”

Caught off guard, Ling Feng quickly replied, “I’ll do my best to handle the matters Miss Si has mentioned.”

Investigating Tianle Media, deeply rooted in the entertainment industry of the Great Xia Empire and entangled in a vast network of relationships, would be a daunting task for Xingting Law Firm.

This was a massive undertaking.

Ling Feng gazed at her phone, contemplating the best strategy.

“What did Miss Si say, Sister Ling?” asked a young man from the driver’s seat, “Is there something we need to do?”.

“We’re investigating Tianle Media,” Ling Feng glanced at him, “Get some more people on it.”

“Got it!” The young man agreed enthusiastically and hurried off to make arrangements.

Only four hours after the announcement of Xu Xiyun’s withdrawal from the competition, Wanchuan Entertainment finally posted on Weibo at nine in the evening.

“@WanchuanEntertainment: Effective immediately, our company has terminated the contract with Mr. Xu Xiyun [Image]”

The image showed the termination contract and the company seal.

Fans rejoiced in the comments.

[Heavens be praised, the contract is terminated!]

[Great news, Xu Xiyun no longer has to endure his new boss’s exploitation.] [Thank you, Teacher Si, for speaking up! Grateful to you!]

“Eternity,” a holographic game.

Linked through VR gaming pods, the neural connections and brainwaves of players are projected into a virtual game world.

This technology perfectly simulates the five senses: hearing, smell, sight, and so on, making the experience almost indistinguishable from reality.

The only difference lies in the perception of time.

The activity in the human brain is rapid, and holographic technology leverages this to accelerate time in the game world compared to reality.

In “Eternity,” the time ratio compared to the real world is ?????????????? in normal mode, and it can even reach as high as 10:1 in sleep mode.

JI Xingzhi, pressed for time, would enter “Eternity” to practice summoning.

Advanced players in “Eternity” could even bring items from the game world into the real world.

Holographic gaming represents the pinnacle of gaming evolution.

Given the current global technological capabilities, which are still far from achieving such advanced holographic experiences, players of “Eternity” are genuinely elite individuals who traverse the corners of the world.

“Ordinary pods are easily purchasable, but the kind you need has to be customized,” JI Xingzhi responded, surprised. “Tell me the truth, big brother, are you being hunted or something? Can’t even buy a gaming pod?”

“Something like that, it’s complicated,” Si Fuqing didn’t want to delve into it, nodding. “How long for a custom pod?”

“Let me check... The JI family doesn’t have any slots right now, I’ll have to look elsewhere,” Ji Xingzhi frowned. “Once I secure a slot, it can be delivered in three months.”

“Okay,” Si Fuqing replied. “Arrange the customization for me, I’ll pay you later.”

“Hey, do I need money? Just help me out when I’m in a pinch,” JI Xingzhi responded heartily. “But, are you planning a comeback?”

“Something like that,” Si Fuqing said nonchalantly. “I haven’t logged into ‘Oracle’ for so long, and it’s just a keyboard-controlled game. ‘Eternity,’ being a holographic game, must have evolved even more, right?”

“Yeah, a lot has changed,” JI Xingzhi sounded a bit melancholic. “Without you carrying me, I can’t access several areas without you. Why are you always a top-level player wherever you go?”

He was finally going to ride the coattails of a pro.

“Yeah, I’ll bring you along,” Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow. “I hear the sound of a plane. You’re back in the country?”

“Just reached the transit station,” JI Xingzhi said. “A few more hours and I’ll be home. We can meet soon!”

He couldn’t wait to meet his ‘big brother.’

Wondering what he looked like, JI Xingzhi walked towards the waiting area, his eyes catching an advertisement, “Wow, big brother, look at this star. So good-looking! I swear on my twenty-something years of being single, this is the most attractive person I’ve ever seen!”

Si Fuqing responded nonchalantly, ‘What does she look like? To get such praise from you?”

“Hold on, I’ll take a picture,” Ji Xingzhi said excitedly, taking out his phone..

“Named Si Fuqing, even the name sounds impressive!”
