Chapter 300 - Who Can Buy a Ticket? (1/2)

“Damn, the tsunami is coming. Has our Noah’s Ark been built?”

“Who can buy a ticket?!”

George and Han were was standing on a famous beach on the west coast of the United States, watching the rising tide.

Waves and waves of seawater, layering one upon each another, came whooshing onto the shore. It was great and intimidating, making sounds as loud as thunder when crashing on the rocks.

Those two former tabloid reporters were now popular in the world of media because they had successfully reported the “Internal War of the Octopuses”.

George’s head was lowered as he smugly showed the headline he had just written on his phone to his companion Han.

“That’s amazing! That headline would definitely attract eyes.” Han looked admiringly to Clever George, his companion.

George nodded in satisfaction. “These next steps will be are our usual work. Using this headline I’ve just created, go find any material we’ll need, or maybe some concrete evidence.”

Han said immediately, “I’ve just seen a fairly quite famous male celebrity. I suppose he’d be interested in our interview.”

The two immediately found a trim, slender black man resting under an umbrella, a Hollywood star who had recently become famous and had just finished surfing.

The other had already acted as the main character in many Hollywood monster movies since last year, and was quite reputable in the celebrity circle.

However, except for professional reporters and ardent fans, ordinary people would not be able to recognize him on the street.

That was because his characters were are all monsters…

Yes, his name was John Jackson, an Extraordinaire capable of transformation which could turn into many kinds of monsters. At first, he had only been a construction worker. However, he had been dragged away by a very inquisitive scout and had become an actor, going on the glitzy path to stardom.

Obviously, though, his path to stardom would be ending soon. With the incoming natural disasters, no one would have the mood to watch movies whatsoever.

The two walked over and greeted him.

“Hello, John, I’m George, a fan of yours. Your acting as the octopus monster last time was so great. Pity that in the end, your beautiful human wife had died. How sad.” George fluently bluffed.

John blinked, then let out a curious smile. “Thank you for your praise. This is thanks to the both of you. I’d taken that rotten script only after reading your strange report about the two octopus monsters.”

Han smiled helplessly and looked towards his friend.

George did not see it, but went on, “Oh, that’s great. Our fates must be connected then. Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?”

John nodded. He looked quite amenable. “Of course.”

“Do you always come here to surf? Compared to last year, how has this year’s tide changed?” George did not lose the chance.

“Yes, I often come here, even before I became famous. The tides are truly bigger than the ones last year at this time. I’ve seen the things you want to ask about online,” George rambled on, as though finally having a way to channel his anger. “Damn it, my acting career had just begun, so why would such a scary disaster come soon? Is it that God doesn’t want me to be famous?”

George immediately aggravated him. “Then, are you sure of how the relevant American authorities are going to face this disaster? In your opinion, are they secretly building a Noah’s Ark like in the movies?” George nimbly led the topic to his headline.

John froze at that, then nodded fiercely. “They must have known this earlier, and are definitely building a Noah’s Ark in secret.

“Oh, yes. I remember during a party, some of the female stars in our circle were saying that a young talented tycoon whom they like very much had hurriedly left America and ran to China. to live.

“We all know, after all, that China has more experience in dealing with natural disasters than us, and place more importance in the ordinary citizens.”

George looked smugly towards his friend. The other gave him an admiring look.

Good. Now they have the concrete evidence that they needed.

One hour later, George quickly posted an exclusive story on his personal social media page.

The headline was such. as above.

The content was: “A Hollywood star has given a statement confirming that the United States is currently building a Noah’s Ark in secret. Their progress is unknown, but what is known is that even a recently-made billionaire is not qualified for a ticket, and has already left the country…”

Due to the last report on octopuses, George had already acquired millions of fans. Rapidly, the big media corporations had reposted it.

The billionaire who had left America was also revealed…

William Robert. His uncle was David Robert, a former SBI special agent. He was himself a boss of a famous newly risen fashion company. His assets were worth billions, and the time taken to build it was not more than 5 years.

No wonder he could get early information. No wonder he did not have the qualifications to get a ticket. It must have been those old men alienating him…

A panic which could not be explained immediately spread through the country.

If a billionaire could not get onto the boat, that also meant that 99.99 percent of Americans could never fit the terms…

For some reason, the Americans, usually more highly restricting in relevant issues than any other countries, moved very slowly this time…

This made George feel weird, but it made him happier because it meant he could become famous again.

And of Of course, he became famous again.

The fan base of his personal news portal, “Clever George”, immediately broke through to eight figures, something that some stars with a solid fan following could never manage.

The comments increased rapidly too.

George and Han read them one by one.

“Oh God, it is actually real? Who’s going to save us?

“Where is our great navy? Are they just living in comfort?”

“Where are the President and the senatorsMPs? Why’re they keeping collective silence? What are they escaping from? What’s actually happening?”

“The East has the True Dragon, so where’s our angel?”

…

Qi City, China.

Robert immediately saw the current hot news story. Of course, he did it through some little tactics.

When he saw that his home country was reduced to a panicking mess, he felt heavy, his heart hurting. His gaze then lit up, and he moved towards his nephew’s bungalow next door.
