At that moment, the Internet user called “Funny Milk” had already become a glittering landmark. Above the name, there was even a crown. When the cursor was placed above it, a few big words would appear: “Animal lover ambassador, a volunteer who donated above 100,000 yuan.”

His name was hilarious, but his action had instead only brought a shock to everyone!

“What the heck! Are you kidding me? He really donated? Quickly see if it’s real or fake!”

“What the heck, I saw it. He really donated 100,000 yuan! 100,000 yuan! He’s definitely a Nouveau Riche!”

“Nouveau Riche, can we be friends?!”

Just like a heavy bomb, “Funny Milk’s” 100,000 yuan donation had thoroughly blown up the forum. Even those Internet users diving about in silence could no longer look on indifferently.

“What the heck, I was thinking of donating just now but didn’t dare to do it. This time, you managed to beat me to it. 50,000 yuan, leave me!”

“Aiyo, that was quick. I won’t say further. When I was young, I fell into the water and was saved by my family’s Tibetan mastiff. 30,000 yuan, let’s go!”

“Hahaha, there are so many animal-loving friends, I feel happy and comforted. 200,000 yuan!”

At first, it was a big group of nouveau riches who started to chase after Hong Dali’s wastrel footsteps. Subsequently, after a short while, someone with the name “Young Master’s Loyal Fan” appeared on the website. Without further ado, he first donated two million yuan before uploading a picture.

In the picture, Hong Dali, Tang Muxin, Lin Chuyin, and several others were wearing swimming costumes and sunglasses while laying on the backs of great white sharks. They were drinking beverages carefreely and the sky was instead filled with Hong Dali’s special bumbersoll-a few remote-controlled aircraft.

Into the distance, it was instead a group of Hong Dali’s students riding on sharks, competing on whose shark would be the fastest…

Below the note, the person who uploaded it wrote a short paragraph—

“Young Master Dali’s love for animals is beyond doubt. Currently, because he likes animals, he even rides on sharks. Hence, regarding this matter, my heart doesn’t have an ounce of suspicion or doubt. Young Master Dali definitely did not create this fund for fame or benefits, as they are nothing to him. Young Master Dali did not even think about it. He did this because he likes animals, that’s all. As Young Master Dali’s loyal fan, I can’t do it as he does. However, I can do my best. Two million yuan, I hope that it can help even more animals.”

The moment this note was posted, the entire forum was thoroughly shocked!

“Heavens, Young Master Dali has begun riding sharks?!”

“Yes, not only is Young Master Dali riding sharks, but his classmates are as well! Sharks! Absolutely unmatched!”

“The sharks Young Master Dali is riding on are at least 20 meters long. This is too cool!”

“Brothers, I shan’t say anything else. Animals are humans’ best friends. Everyone here likes animals. I might be poor, but I still can fork out 1,800 yuan! I’ll donate 1,000 yuan!”

“Support. I cannot compare to Young Master Dali, but I’ll donate 500 yuan!”

From that moment on, the number of people donating to the Wildlife Protection Conservation Fund rose sharply! Most donated a few hundred thousand, while a few donated a few yuan. Anyway, the number of people who donated one million yuan was not considered too much, and those who donated a few yuan were not considered few. In an instant, the donation page instantly refreshed, quicker and quicker!

Seeing such a scene, Dan Jingrou was touched.

She truly felt that there were people with compassion in this world, many of such people.

Lightly taking out her bank card, Dan Jingrou donated 10,000 yuan without any hesitation. Her pocket money was not a lot, in reality. It was considered to be living on the earnings of her work. 10,000 yuan was not something she would casually throw out.

However, Dan Jingrou’s heart did not ache.

Because being able to spread her care and love was something that she was very happy to do.

…

Door to Heaven, top floor, five magnates’ conference room.

“CEO Wen,” The assistant held onto a proposal with sweat pouring down his face, rushing into the room urgently. Upon seeing Wen Jianan, he immediately reported. “Dali Wildlife and Obedient Pets Protection Association have just disclosed their donation account. Within such a short period of time, the total amount of donations is…”

“How much? There should be at least a few million yuan, right?” Wen Jianan drank his tea leisurely.

“Hmm, I figure that it’s probably that amount.” Sun Yuanzhou nodded his head in agreement.

Usually, everyone was not too excited about a public donation as such. It would usually amount to about two to three million yuan.

In reality, Wen Jianan did not think of donating much. Besides, with Dali’s billion yuan as the basis, the number of donations from the public would not be too important.

However, it was evident that the assistant had prepared a giant surprise for them.

“CEO Wen, CEO Sun, the total is…” The assistant secretary gulped down a mouthful of saliva and said, “The total is 26,340,000 yuan. The small change isn’t included…”

Wen Jianan immediately spat out a mouthful of tea. “Pu!!! How much?!”

“A total of 26,340,000 yuan, small change excluded.” The assistant repeated…

“Hong Dali’s appeal is already so great?” After he had finally calmed down, Wen Jianan listened on with wide eyes and a slack jaw. “This is purely a charity donation. The news had just been announced not long ago, but it has already raised so much money?”

No wonder he was surprised. Besides, this was just a few hours after the announcement. Even though the funds raised usually increased the fastest at the beginning, but such a formidable amount right from the start, Hong Dali’s appeal could be considered unmatched!

“This rascal, no wonder the entire country flatters him so desperately!” Sun Yuanzhou exclaimed, “His appeal among the citizens reached such a level, he’s simply a legend!”

A charity organization where even Hong Dali did not release any official announcements. Just with Dali’s brand on it, it had such an appeal. Such a celebrity effect was simply scary!

…

Tianhai Military Headquarters, large conference room.

“Heavens, just three hours and almost 30 million funds have been raised?!” The Bureau Chief and a group of military leaders stared at the computer’s screen with wide eyes and slack jaws. In reality, there was nobody tasked to tabulate the figures on their side. They could only use a calculator to select a few figures and calculate sum by sum. However, it was evident that their speed was already lagging behind the donations’ speed.

“Quickly! Contact Wen Jianan and the others quickly, find out how much was donated exactly!” The Bureau Chief shouted, “Go quickly!”

Hong Dali’s appeal was already considered scary. Even the Bureau Chief wanted to know just how much donations were raised this time.

Very quickly, the inquirer returned. That person kneeled down immediately upon returning. “Bureau Chief, the tabulated result is that the current amount of donated funds has already reached 26,340,000 yuan, small change excluded!”

26,340,000 yuan!

“This rascal, his current appeal among citizens is simply frightening…” The Bureau Chief exhaled longly. “Too powerful!”

…

That night, at 8 pm, donations from citizens continued to rise. At that moment, more and more people began to participate.

At first, the majority of them were regular citizens. Soon after, not only regular citizens but people from the entertainment business begun to participate as well!

Tai Yajing official Weibo: “I heard that the Young Master created a charity organization. As Young Master’s firm follower, I’ll personally donate 500,000 yuan to the Dali Wildlife and Obedient Pets Protection Association.”

The moment this Weibo was released, her Internet user fans momentarily praised her in loud voices! Just within a short span of an hour, it was forwarded 200,000 times and commented on 40,000 times!

Ku Ge Music’s Sheng Wenshi: “I don’t have much money, so I can only put in my best effort. 50,000 yuan. I hope that more animals can be saved.”

Caiwei Entertainment’s Ding Chengzhi: “I shan’t say anything. 50,000 yuan. Following closely in Young Master’s footsteps.”

The others in the entertainment business followed up closely…

…

Door to Heaven, inside Hong Weiguo’s room.

These three—Hong Weiguo, Liu Yihui, and Mu Tie—stared at the computer screen closely. It was a back management account of Mu Tie’s Jianbao Plaza.

The official account this time, the connection used for the donations was Jianbao Plaza’s fund transaction channel. Hence, the trio utilized this to monitor the fund transaction activity. It was the most accurate measurement.

“Dali this rascal’s current appeal is simply…” The three of them stared at the donation sums as the page refreshed with wide eyes and slack jaws. Hong Weiguo muttered, “His popularity is so high?”

…

Just as the number of donations were rising rapidly, at a small corner of a forum, a frail-looking figure joined in.

It was a young girl called Deng Jiayun who donated 100 yuan.

Originally, many people donated various amounts of money. Donating 100 yuan was not considered a big deal. However, the comment that she left below quickly garnered the attention of many Internet users—

“I’m sorry, my financial capabilities are limited. 100 yuan is already the full amount of my pocket money this month. My family’s condition isn’t that great, but I still wish to help more small animals. My days are numbered, but I hope that these cute living things can continue to lead a better life…”

Actually, originally, donating 100 yuan was not considered unusual. Even if the comment was typed in a strange way, it wasn’t worth mentioning at all.

However, one had to admit that many a time, Internet users’ ability to poke into every nook and cranny often led people to marvel in surprise.

First, an Internet user left a comment below, saying: “A donation is a donation, regardless of whether it’s a lot or a little. But don’t talk about yourself so pitifully. In this age and time, 100 yuan isn’t a big enough amount to the extent where you have to express your thoughts and feelings. I donated 200 yuan and was too embarrassed to mention it.”

Originally, this had supporters and opposers. This was the law of nature and could not be changed.

Hence, many Internet users replied below: “This young lady donated 100 yuan and expressed her support here, and you’re telling her not to mention it? Donations are not about the amount but the thought behind it. But lady, honestly speaking, your words are too pitiful. What do you mean by your days are numbered? You can’t go as far as to say it so tragically, right?”

The moment an argument arose, it immediately garnered the attention of everyone. At that moment, a few Internet users saw Deng Jiayun’s profile picture and asked curiously. “Aye? This lady’s profile picture is quite pretty. There is a high chance she is a local. Let me take a look!”

This sentence received a massive response. Quickly, everyone was astonished.
