[ContrastTeamInADadW/BabyShow] Chapter 44.2 — Oh, I Know!

Lin Momo blinked and was a little surprised. Only her grandma has called her ‘Xiao Momo’ before. When she heard this old man unexpectedly call her that and say he was her fan, Lin Momo felt he was very kind and friendly.

“Really? Are you my fan?” Lin Momo asked, still feeling a bit uncertain.

“Really. I came here today specifically so I could see our Xiao Momo.” 

Hearing this, Lin Momo’s eyebrows curved up in surprise, and she said to Old Master Lin with a little nervousness, “Thank you.”

“Then—” After thinking about it, Lin Momo said again, “Can you also be a fan of my dad?”

She was not a celebrity, so she didn’t need any fans. Lin Cheng, however, was a star, and if there was one more person to like him then it would give him more visibility.

Seeing Lin Momo’s serious look, the old man nodded and said, “Okay, a fan, I’m a fan of you both.” 

The smile on Lin Momo’s face widened a little more, and she bowed to Old Master Lin and said, “Thank you.”

After saying this, Lin Momo said ‘goodbye’ to Old Master Lin, turned around and ran back inside their small restaurant. She was excited to tell Lin Cheng: he has another fan!

Looking at Lin Momo’s bounding away with excited steps, the smile on Old Master Lin’s face never faded.

Seeing this, Zhou Ming silently complained in his heart: In the entire Lin family, the old master was the one who was most opposed to the eldest young master being involved in the entertainment industry, but now he was willing to become his fan for the sake of his great-grandchild.

All he could say was…

Old master, where are your principles?!

… …

In the livestream channel, many viewers laughed when they saw this scene.

[Hahaha, what kind of show is this? Was he actually a fan?!]

[So he was an elderly fan?]

[That was quite funny but also a bit pitiful. Does Lin Cheng and Baby Momo’s livestream only deserve to have middle-aged and elderly fans?]

[To be honest, my dad is not young anymore, and he also likes to watch Lin Cheng and Lin Momo’s livestream.]

[My mother is the same, she comes to mess with my VIP membership every time.]

[Raising my hand! My grandpa also likes it and asked me if it was popular nowadays to have celebrities go on survival shows.]

[God damn survival show…]

​​[Haha, you reminded me! I almost forgot that this is a parent-child interaction program.]

[I also forgot…]

[Although I haven’t graduated from school yet, I like watching this team’s livestream]

……

In the entertainment company, reading the audience comments in the livestream channel, Wang Xi suddenly looked at the two people next to her and asked, “By the way, does Brother Cheng have many fans now?” 

Zhou Qi thought about it and said, “Probably….” 

After all, Lin Cheng’s livestream channel was now very popular, and he was only a few tens of thousands away from catching up with Zheng Chengye’s family in fourth place.

Chen Yu on the side, however, shook his head with a less optimistic expression and said, “If there are any, they are just casual fans.” 

At most, casual fans would like Lin Cheng, but they were unlikely to be the same as the fans of Qin Yulin and Duan Bei who put extreme effort into checking in, helping with rankings, and very much supporting their idols.

“Then why don’t we also organize fan clubs, coordinate with some fans, and increase the traffic of our brother Cheng?” Wang Xi suggested.

But Chen Yu glanced at her lightly and asked, “Do you think we can do this with our current resources and financial strength?” 

Hearing this, Wang Xi shrank her neck, “I forgot about this…” 

Fan management required professional skills and resources. It was not an easy task for a team to manage fans. Among the three of them—a low-level manager with no resources, plus two intern assistants—obviously they do not have such ability.

There was another thing Chen Yu didn’t tell these two young people: considering what he suspected to be Lin Cheng’s true identity, he probably didn’t need to get much traffic anyway.

… …

Back at the small restaurant, after watching Lin Momo go back inside, Zhou Ming looked at the time and asked, “Old Master, do you want to head back now?” 

“Let’s go.” Old Master Lin got into the car, fully satisfied with the day’s events.

In the car, something came to mind, and Old Master Lin said with a serious face, “Lin Cheng is busy recording during this period, and he probably doesn’t have much energy to deal with the company’s affairs. Have people keep an eye on things more, don’t let Lin Zhenhong and Lin Zhenzi take advantage of any loophole.

“Okay, I’ll tell them,” Zhou Ming nodded in agreement, and then added, “But don’t worry too much, old master. According to the feedback from people we have in the company, even if those two want to take advantage of loopholes, they still have no hope.” 

In the beginning, the old master had limited energy and couldn’t take care of company matters, and Lin Cheng didn’t care much about the Lin family’s affairs, so Lin Cheng’s father and uncle were able to exploit the situation for their own interests.

However, ever since the Eldest Young Master got involved in running the company, the two of them had basically no opportunities to take advantage of things.

Old Master Lin obviously understood the meaning of Zhou Ming’s words and murmured to himself, “That’s good. Being a father finally made him a little more decent and responsible.” 

“Also, I heard Wang Yu say that the Eldest Young Master asked him to prepare the house in Jingyi Garden,” Zhou Ming said. 

Jingyi Garden was a community located in the center of the city, but it was also close to a mountain park. It was a quiet oasis in the middle of the city bustle. It was very convenient to live in and is suitable for retirement and elderly care.

Hearing what Zhou Ming said, Old Master Lin quickly guessed Lin Cheng’s plan and nodded. “Let him arrange this.” 

In the afternoon, because there were not many customers who would come to the restaurant to eat at this time, Lin Cheng and Lin Momo simply closed the shop and started preparing ingredients for the evening rush.

At this moment, the cell phone provided to Lin Cheng by the program crew rang, and several calls came in all from unfamiliar numbers.

“Dad, the phone is ringing,” Lin Momo said to Lin Chen in the kitchen.

“Answer it.”

“Okay.”

Lin Momo took the phone and answered the call.

“Hello.”

At this time, a woman’s voice came from the phone, “Is this the ‘One Day Small Restaurant’?” 

“Yes, we are the ‘One Day Small Restaurant’.”

“I can order food for delivery, right?”

Hearing the other party’s question, Lin Momo’s face lit up, and she quickly responded, “Yes!” 

“Okay, since it’s possible, then I want to place an order…”
