Ma Rufei and Zhao Dawei's complexions changed. They were left speechless, their smugness and arrogance vanishing in an instant.

Zhao Dawei had an extraordinary status and could use special connections to get Empress Zhu Danyan into next year's Spring Festival Gala. But beyond that, he was powerless.

In the entertainment industry, all the directors, screenwriters, and entertainment companies had intricate and extensive ties with Lv Yuze. If he gave the word, Zhu Danyan really wouldn't be able to get any roles, and she would gradually be forgotten. Then, the Empress would naturally become a fleeting memory, replaced by someone else.

"Alas..."

They were all furious and frustrated, but they were utterly helpless. They could only hope that Zhang Bin had some heaven-defying means to deal with this crisis and shatter Lv Yuze's conspiracy.

On stage, Host Cheng Hui was passionately congratulating Zhu Danyan on winning the title of Masked Singing King, his voice exceptionally warm. Moreover, his witty remarks sparked fervent cheers from the audience time and time again.

Finally, he asked with a smile, "Empress, you seized the championship of the Masked Singing King competition by an absolute landslide, becoming the undisputed king of singers. May I ask, what are your thoughts on this?"

Empress Zhu Danyan picked up the microphone and gave a short, emotional speech. She concluded, "Friends, the reason I was able to win the championship of the Masked Singing King competition is all thanks to these last three songs. All three were written and composed by one remarkable person. It was the work of a single individual. Do you want to know who that person is?"

"Yes, we really, really do!"

Nearly the entire audience shouted in excitement, their faces filled with anticipation.

Even Lv Yuze muttered the same through gritted teeth. He was desperate to know who this person was. Who dared to ruin his plans? Were they tired of living?

"This person is... him."

Zhu Danyan's elegant hand pointed straight at Zhang Bin, who was still smiling behind the piano.

"It's him? That young man playing the piano? So young, yet he can create timeless songs? And he has such mesmerizing zither skills. What a talented young man he is!"

At that moment, everyone was stunned, their faces etched with disbelief.

Mother Zhang's face, however, lit up with ecstatic joy as she boasted excitedly, "I only knew Xiao Bin had a talent for music before, but I never imagined he wrote those three songs. For him, that's nothing special..."

"Xiao Bin is so amazing," the other villagers chimed in.

This scoundrel, how many more talents does he have that I don't know about? Liu Ruolan muttered to herself. A radiant, flower-like smile spread across her face, making her look as beautiful as an immortal.

As for Xiao Fang, Liu Ruomei, and Liu Xin, their eyes were wide, as if they couldn't believe their ears. After all, Zhang Bin had never mentioned that he could also write lyrics and compose music. This guy seemed as if he could master anything without a teacher; it was simply incredible.

Lv Yuze, however, was frozen like an idiot, his face twisting uncontrollably. He had assumed it was some once-in-a-generation genius, but who would have thought it was Zhang Bin? That the world's King of Gamblers had created these three songs? This bastard was so multi-talented. He was a colossal threat and had to be eliminated!

"You there, handsome, please come over and introduce yourself," Cheng Hui said, still reeling from the shock. He then smiled and beckoned to Zhang Bin, who had stood up and was waving to the audience.

Zhang Bin strode over confidently.

He took the microphone and said with a grin, "Ladies and gentlemen, good evening. I bet you're all eager to know who I am, right? Why I'm so talented, and so irresistibly handsome?"

"Hahaha..." Many in the audience burst into laughter, clearly amused by Zhang Bin's humor.

Once the laughter subsided, Zhang Bin said mysteriously, "Actually, you all know me. I'm a pretty big deal. Now, let me show you my true face."

With that, he swiped his left hand across his face. His appearance underwent a monumental change, revealing the face of the world's King of Gamblers, Zhang Bin. Furthermore, a special leaf, resembling a talisman, appeared in his hand out of nowhere.

Since he had agreed to let Mi Yiyao be his manager, he had to pick the right moment to reveal his identity to rally his fans. He believed that this was the perfect time. The Masked Singing King was being broadcast live, and its ratings were already terrifyingly high. Since it was the final episode, the viewership would naturally be at its peak. By revealing his identity on a live broadcast, the entire nation of China would know.

"Ah! The King of Gamblers! It's the King of Gamblers, Zhang Bin!"

"The King of Gamblers! He's Zhang Bin, the King of Gamblers!"

"His Majesty the King of Gamblers has finally appeared!"

"..."

At that moment, countless viewers erupted in screams, so overcome with excitement that the noise almost burst Zhang Bin's eardrums. It was only then that he truly understood just how many fans his identity as the King of Gamblers had. The number of his fans was definitely no less than Zhu Danyan's—it might even far surpass hers.

After all, the World King of Gamblers tournament had been utterly thrilling. Zhang Bin had dominated the world's top gambling masters to seize the title, bringing immense honor and pride to all the people of China. Even Host Cheng Hui was flushed with excitement.

"Everyone, now that you all know who I am, I'd like to make an announcement," Zhang Bin said, his voice ringing with confidence. "Effective immediately, I am entering the entertainment industry. I will be establishing the largest entertainment company, King of Gamblers Entertainment Co., Ltd., and Empress Zhu Danyan will be our company's superstar. You might be wondering, 'I'm the King of Gamblers, so why am I starting an entertainment company?' My answer is that gambling is a form of entertainment, so it's only logical for the King of Gamblers to venture into the entertainment industry. I'll also let you in on a little secret: the director of the film 'Extraterrestrials Visiting Earth,' starring the Empress, is none other than Zhang Bin, the Chairman of Wenwu Pharma, and he will also be joining our company."

Since Zhu Danyan was his woman, and she was unwilling to leave the entertainment industry, he couldn't possibly stand by and watch her be blacklisted. Therefore, he had no choice but to enter the industry himself and create a vast entertainment empire to completely crush Lv Yuze.

With Tutu, the miraculous intelligent program, assisting him, filming movies and TV shows would be a piece of cake. He just needed to hire a few directors to handle the shooting, and Tutu could add the special effects, which would naturally result in super-impressive visuals. He could even take movies and shows from Xuanwu Star, translate them, and release them to make a fortune.

An ordinary small entertainment company might not withstand Lv Yuze's pressure and resource blockade. However, for a company co-founded by two versions of Zhang Bin—the King of Gamblers and the Chairman of Wenwu Pharma—it would be a fool's errand for Lv Yuze to try and suppress it. It was simply impossible.
