Chapter 735: Chapter 369: Hanfu is the Exterior, Inherited Skills are the Substance

"Have you noticed that a lot of the videos Chen Jincheng is posting now are related to preserving culture?"

"You noticed too? His Swordsmanship is so good, his Hanfu designs are so beautiful, he built an entire Ancient City scenic area, he’s promoting a Hanfu travel day, and now he’s showcasing traditional skills."

"Besides the fact that he’s always surrounded by women, there’s really nothing to criticize him for. Just based on how he promotes these traditional skills, he’s earned my respect."

"The key is that he does it all quietly. He never actively boasts about what he’s doing. We only found out from people like Boss Lei and that Vice Director Fu from Coastal City."

Indeed, the more people discussed it, the more they discovered Chen Jincheng’s excellent qualities.

The topic suddenly blew up online, and naturally, more and more people learned about the situation.

More and more people came to admire Chen Jincheng for quietly promoting these traditional skills. He never broadcasted his efforts or used them to build a certain image for himself just to grab attention and make a profit.

There are plenty of people online who promote traditional skills, but everyone can see they’re just using that heritage to get attention for themselves.

Chen Jincheng is different. His presence alone commands attention, and he’s the one bestowing that attention upon these traditional skills and culture.

One is consumption, the other is contribution. The two are fundamentally different.

As the online discussion grew, more videos were soon posted on Chen Jincheng’s account. They were all performances of traditional skills, including Intangible Cultural Heritage Gongfu Tea, the "Zombie Drop," the Ghost Step, fire-eating, and paper fan tricks.

Each and every performance left netizens astounded.

Honestly, most people had never even heard of these traditional skills. They might have seen something like fire-eating in TV dramas, though.

But Chen Jincheng somehow knew about all these forgotten skills, unearthed them, and was now presenting them to the world, letting them radiate their unique charm.

Finally, amidst all the buzz, a highly respected elder spoke up in praise: "Only someone with true passion, someone who genuinely takes pride in these national treasures, would quietly work to reignite them and breathe new life into them."

This elder was a man of great prestige and moral standing, so his words were tantamount to draping Chen Jincheng in a cloak of unimpeachable character.

「Jinglan City.」

Chen Jincheng had graduated from letting Li Lixing hold his arm to wrapping his arm around her waist.

’When you’re with a girl, you always have to switch up the intimate positions.’

Sister Hong suddenly approached, handing him her phone with a smile. "Boss, after those videos went out, everyone online is praising you. A highly respected elder even spoke out on your behalf."

Her words caught the attention of Lei Xiaojun, Fu Zhan, and Wei Yuan, who also took out their phones to check.

Chen Jincheng did the same and saw the discussions, as well as the praise from the highly respected elder.

’This is actually a little embarrassing.’

Honestly, he hadn’t sought any of this out himself. He was just "porting" it over. The traditional skills performances, in particular, were only because they had been a huge hit in his past life, so he had just asked Vice Director Fu and his team to find them.

He was just the guy who gave the orders and walked away.

Vice Director Fu and the others had done all the actual work.

So, with everyone online praising him so much, he felt a bit like an impostor.

However, after Lei Xiaojun and Fu Zhan finished reading the news online, they both said:

"President Chen, you deserve such accolades."

"Mr. Chen, you really are that kind of person."

Fu Zhan even gave it his official endorsement, directly instructing Wei Weili, "Post this venerable elder’s praise for Mr. Chen to our official accounts."

On this point, no one could deny Mr. Chen’s contributions.

Truly, for a promotion fee of 100 million, they could all see that Mr. Chen was doing his utmost to help them with the publicity.

If it were anyone else, you could give them 100 million and they absolutely couldn’t have generated this level of publicity and fame for Jinglan City.

It could be said that what Mr. Chen had provided was worth far more than 100 million. This was also why the high-ranking leader in charge of the economy wanted to meet him.

Honestly, to be able to create this kind of momentum and achieve this level of publicity with just 100 million... officials all over the country would probably be begging and pleading for the chance to spend that kind of money.

"Understood, Vice Director Fu." Wei Weili agreed with this as well and immediately arranged for her special promotions team to get to work.

"..." Chen Jincheng was speechless.

’There’s no explaining my way out of this.’

Li Lixing was, of course, looking at the phone with Chen Jincheng. Seeing so many people praising her beloved boss made her very happy. "Boss, with so many people complimenting you, I’m starting to worship you."

"Worship?" Chen Jincheng leaned close to her ear and whispered, "You’ll have to show me with your actions. Have you rented the apartment yet?"

"Mhm!" Li Lixing understood what he meant. She nodded demurely, then leaned close to his ear to whisper, eager to please, "Boss, I also bought some very sexy lingerie. Online, they call it the ’College Girl Seduces Her Boyfriend’ series."

"The seductive bunny girl type?" Chen Jincheng asked teasingly.

The ’College Girl Seduces Her Boyfriend’ series... that particular one was the hottest thing recently. The real kicker was the bunny girl’s tail. ℯℯ𝘭.

It has two clasps.

One for her butt, and one for her crotch.

Anyway, it doesn’t take long to get the whole "vehicle" nice and lubricated.

It can make the "car’s" radiator fluid overflow.

The designer who came up with this thing is a true genius.

Seeing that he knew what she was talking about, Li Lixing blushed and said, "Mhm, I bought it in three different colors. The boss can choose later."

Watching the two of them whispering so intimately, Sister Hong, who was standing behind them, couldn’t help but sigh.

’This boss of mine... he’s a lost cause.’

When he’d asked her to recommend a couple of girls before, he had solemnly sworn that they wouldn’t be "Miss Cheng" types and had very seriously told her he wouldn’t do anything unconscionable.
