Chapter 972 - 407: Hello Everyone, Let Me Meow a Few Words! Dundun Becomes the Star of the Car Show! [Seeking Subscriptions]
"Hello Dundun, please come up!"
The host looked at the little kitten dressed in the same suit and bow tie as Lin Xu, and couldn’t stop laughing.
This chubby little kitten looked so serious, like a school kid about to go on stage for a speech competition, it was so amusing.
With the host’s invitation, all the reporters, media people, and streamers aimed their cameras at this father-son duo in matching outfits.
Wu Kexin and Yue Liyue were also mingling in the crowd.
Due to being part of Joyful Media, they received an invitation to stream the event.
At this moment, the live stream was full of comments cheering Dundun on.
Wu Kexin had already informed her live-stream fans that if Dundun got nervous and ran off, they should understand, as it’s normal for him to be scared with so many people around.
Just when everyone thought Lin Xu would carry Dundun on stage, he surprised everyone by placing the little guy on the ground and pointing to the stage, making Dundun run up by himself.
You’ve paid Dundun’s appearance fee, so let Dundun go up on his own.
Everyone watched this scene in astonishment.
How bold is that?
Aren’t you afraid the cat will run off?
The little one swished its tail as it confidently walked to the temporary stage, then lightly leapt onto a platform half the height of a person.
The host noticed it wasn’t intimidated or scared at all, even changing poses several times for everyone to take pictures. She then placed the microphone in front of Dundun:
"Welcome Dundun to our car exhibition opening event, there are so many people watching you now, say hello to everyone?"
She thought this little guy could not only attend opening events like this but could go straight into acting.
The host was originally just joking with Dundun, but her invitation in a leadership style piqued the kitten’s interest.
Since you’ve asked me to say hello, then this cat will meow a few things.
Dundun opened its mouth and started meowing into the microphone:
"Meow meow meow... meow meow... meow meow meow meow..."
The host was stunned, the people below were also stunned.
What’s going on?
Did it really think it’s here to inspect this place like some leader?
Lin Xu initially just wanted Dundun to make an appearance, then place it next to some of the cars being highlighted for everyone to take pictures.
Who knew the little guy would get so into it.
He wasn’t this keen on performing before, maybe he’s learned some tricks on attracting followers from short videos with his careless mommy recently?
"Meow... meow aowoo... meow meow meow meow..."
On stage, Dundun was getting more and more into it.
Occasionally, it would adjust the desktop microphone in front like a grassroots leader holding a meeting for villagers.
In Wu Kexin’s live stream, fans were going wild:
"My Dundun is going crazy!"
"Hahaha, never thought the little guy would be so fierce!"
"Look at Lin Boss just having a laugh, but it’s Dundun doing the real act."
"Oh my, I’m at work laughing so hard my head’s gonna fall off."
"Suspect that maybe Lin Boss and his wife let it watch ’Love in a Village’, the speaking style and emphasis are so much like those rural leaders."
"Exactly, especially that microphone adjustment move, you can’t do that without ten years of grassroots experience."
"..."
Dundun continued to chatter on stage.
The host, initially surprised, was now becoming helpless.
Since there were more events coming up and the main event leaders were waiting backstage to come on and speak, who knew this little guy... just wouldn’t stop?
She looked at Lin Xu pleadingly, and Lin Xu, feeling helpless, went up the stage, picked up this chatterbox who wanted to meow a bit more, hoisted it onto his shoulder, and walked off the stage.
The people below were all laughing uncontrollably, never having seen a chatterbox like Dundun.
"Besides its talents in acting, music appreciation, and classical Chinese studies, Dundun has finally shown a flaw, which is being a chatterbox."
"Being with it must be a joy, even though we don’t know what it’s saying, its serious look is just adorable."
"Yeah, like a little grown-up, never thought a cat could be like this."
"Love the chatterbox cat so much, my Garfield never meows, like it forgot to install a sound card at the factory."
Listening to everyone’s discussions, Lin Xu finally relaxed, as long as no one wanted to dissect the little guy for research.
"Hello Lin Boss, I’m the head of the planning department at Benz Lizhixing Yanjing Company, can we add each other on WeChat? We hope you can bring Dundun to our future events."
"I’m the deputy general manager in charge of marketing at BMW Yanjing Company, I’d like to add you on WeChat, hoping we might collaborate one day."
"I’m the Chief Creative Officer at Porsche Company, your cat is so cute, can I add you on WeChat, Lin Boss?"
"..."
After stepping down from the stage, Lin Xu was about to look for Shen Baobao and his father-in-law when he was surrounded by heads of the Yanjing branches of these auto companies.
Although he didn’t know how the sales were today, just based on Dundun’s village leader-like speech, today’s headlines were certainly in the bag.
As long as there’s buzz, even if sales are low, that’s okay.
Since car exhibitions are mainly for gaining buzz and showcasing, having buzz equals more than half the success.
After adding a bunch of WeChat contacts, Lin Xu finally saw Shen Baobao and his mother-in-law walking over from a distance:
"Where did you and your parents go?"
"We prepared a surprise for you."
