Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 902: SUCCESSOR (6)

Phil had chosen to represent the middle and lower class white people that others had always neglected.
He said that he was actually representing all the citizens of Hope City, and even all the American citizens on the slogan.

Phil announced on Twitter that the Superhero Association, as well as the superheroes who had joined the association, had completely deviated from the spirit of Captain World even though they still referred to themselves as “the successors of the World Captain”.
These superheroes were only satisfied with making speeches, acting, lying, and making money.
They were actually not doing anything real, which was why the crime rate in Hope City was so high.

Phil was the one who had truly inherited the spirit of the world’s captain.
He would definitely be able to change this rigid situation as long as he could obtain more support.
He would let Hope City’s crime rate continue to decrease, and the superheroes would no longer be trapped in mutual deception and internal strife.
Instead, they would unite and recreate the glory of Captain World under his lead.

Phil’s speech triggered an enthusiastic response.

The Superhero Association only gave Phil a title in the first election.
They did not even allow him to give a speech in the event location.
However, even so, Phil’s speech on Twitter still gathered a large number of fans for him.
He crushed his opponent with an absolute advantage in votes and entered the next round of the election, becoming a rising star.

Only then did the other superheroes realize that something was wrong.

The threatened superheroes were frantically digging up dirt about Phil through the television media, wanting to use these scandals to shatter the illusion that Phil had created in front of his fans.

However, what surprised them was that this move, which had worked time and again in the past, was now completely ineffective.

That was because the character designs of superheroes in the past were very perfect.
It would be a very heavy blow to the superheroes as long as they dug out a piece of dirt and spread it around.
They would not be able to do it flawlessly even if these superheroes were careful with their words and actions.
They would always succeed if they wanted to nitpick.

There were too many scandals about Phil, including his academic qualifications, his company, his messy relationships, and even the script on ‘Successor’.

The media controlled by these large financial groups and superheroes began to bombard Phil, hoping to make him collapse through this way and completely lose the support of the people.

However, what they did not expect was that it did not work at all.

That was because Phil did not become a superhero in a conventional way.
He had countless flaws on him, including the fact that he has messy relationships.
The people had long known that about them and they did not cause him anything.

The only threat was the matter of the script for the ‘Successor’ program, however Phil denied it, saying that it was the suppression and discredit of the vested interests of the Superhero Association.

Both sides had their own arguments.
The people could not see absolute evidence and could only choose a side to believe.

However, there have been many instances of large financial groups and superheroes using fake news to attack competitors.
These traditional television media have lost the trust of most people.

The people who supported Phil were even more convinced that Phil was being framed.
They supported him even more firmly.
More people joined in to support Phil because of this.

In fact, Phil had created a special “Information Cocoon” effect through his own Twitter.
He locked all his supporters in the information cocoon and it contained the only information they were willing to accept and believe.
Naturally, it was always favorable to him.

As for Phil’s supporters, they needed a spokesperson who could protect their interests.
They wanted to recreate the glory of Captain World, reduce crime rates, live a peaceful life, and change a pool of useless superheroes.

They desired this so much that no one but Phil could meet their requirements.

Of course, Phil would not really satisfy their requests.
He was lying to them.
However, Phil’s supporters were willingly deceived because they were also lying to themselves.

Thus, no matter how much dirt on Phil was exposed, they would choose to believe Phil for no reason.
They would only accept information that met their expectations and ignore the information that they did not want to see.

Phil’s strength became stronger just like that.
He defeated opponents one after another without even participating in the speech and debate.

While voices against Phil were getting louder and louder, his support rate was also rising, gradually entering the top ten of the Superhero support rate.

Phil, who had obtained great strength, began to selectively interfere in the missions of other superheroes.
He would make it known that he played a major role in the operation if he succeeded.
It might have caused serious consequences if he followed the original arrangements of the association.
If he had failed, he would emphasize that the association did not share the information of the operation with him and push the blame to the superheroes and the association who were carrying out the mission.

In addition, Phil had also arranged for people to dig up all sorts of dirt about his competitors and use such dirt to blackmail other superheroes to exchange interests, or he would directly release anonymously to attack his opponents.
On the other hand, the dirt on Phil would be interpreted as his ‘true character’ because of his special status.
He was in a completely invincible position.

The structure of the first half of Cui Geng’s plot was that Phil had used such a series of methods to create a large-scale public safety event.
It would cause hundreds of people to die, and finally replace the current strongest superhero.

However, this was obviously not the end.

Phil might have become the number one superhero, in the latter half of the plot, but his position was not stable because traditional interest groups and emerging superheroes wanted to pull him down.
He, who stood at a high position, was facing a more serious threat than before.

In the latter half of the plot, Phil used his power to eliminate dissidents and suppress new superheroes.
He squeezed those superheroes to become his vassals and stabilized his power step by step.

Phil returned to being a mentor in the talent show ‘Successor’ and cultivated his own superhero force through this program.

In the end, he successfully recruited almost all superheroes under his command.
He made a lot of money through his special status and deceived the people through various fake crime rate data.

The billions that his father had spent on him had been recovered with interest, while the lives of the people were deteriorating.
However, even so, the people still felt that Phil was a superhero who did not do it for fame or profit.
Their lives were unfortunate because of other countries and because the United States was opposing Phil.

Just like that, Phil steadily made his way onto the supreme throne of the superheroes.
He had taken revenge on all the superheroes who had sinned against him.

However, at the end of the story, these superheroes who had been retaliated against, struggled to survive.
A few people who had seen through Phil’s true colors worked with these superheroes, secretly worked together to overthrow Phil’s rule.

…

Cui Geng had to add all sorts of iconic events during the actual creation process.
Each key node corresponded to each iconic event every time Phil made his grab at the highest power of a superhero.

There would be a lot of fighting scenes in these events.
From the initial robbery, murder, and pursuit of fugitives to dealing with terrorist attacks, hijacking, and even overseas wars, basically covering battle scenes commonly seen in superheroes.

However, all of these events were the opposite of the traditional superhero story.
What the pubic knew was always the truth that had been whitewashed…

Cui Geng’s story outline was relatively long.
It had basically reached the upper limit for the number of words of the fixed-rate contract, which was 500,000 words.

It would take him a long time to write the entire story perfectly.

However, Cui Geng was on a fixed-rate contract and Boss Pei was paying anyway so he did not have any worries.
He just had to collect inspiration every day and write slowly.

He could even spend time revising the plot from beginning to end after he finished writing it.
That way, he could ensure that every plot would achieve the desired effect.
