Anthony could not explain himself.

The evidence was irrefutable. Even if he had ten mouths, none of them would be able to prove his innocence to the audience.

In the end, Anthony chose not to respond to Chen Ming.

Buried under the criticism of viewers, he hung up.

He was probably cleaning up the mess.

Chen Ming thought, ‘Losing his laboratory like that is probably going to cost him a pretty penny.’

However, even though Anthony had left, the number of comments about him only increased.

Anthony’s accusations and slanderous statements about Chen Ming had been disproven, so the netizens were cursing him without any fear.

As for those who had scolded Chen Ming because of Anthony, they apologized one after another.

While the live broadcast was still going on, a trending topic was on the rise.

[Energy research expert, Anthony, slanders Chen Ming. Suspected of theft.]

As it was very popular, by the time the show ended and Chen Ming discovered it, it had already become the number one trending topic.

As for the show, this was the first time they had pulled in so many viewers. It was unprecedented.

Chen Ming’s eyes spotted the big words “explode” at the bottom of the page, and clicked on it.

When he entered, and refreshed the page, new comments could be seen appearing constantly.

[Die, Anthony, die! How dare you slander the geniuses of our country?]

[Hurry up and get lost! Why didn’t the energy block explode and send him flying?]

[Only god knows how happy I was when Anthony’s lab exploded.]

[What? Energy blocks? An explosion? What is all of this?]

The newcomers were confused. Still, it was amazing for the number one trending topic today to not be about entertainment industry gossip.

[Sister, let me give you an explanation. To put it simply, energy polymer blocks can produce electricity. One kilogram can produce 10 kWH of electricity! Isn’t it much more amazing and interesting than celebrity gossip?]

[There’s also another thing. Anthony, a supposedly expert energy researcher, slandered the creator of the energy polymer blocks, and also stole from him. However, in the end, due to the security measures implanted in the energy blocks, his lab blew up! I recommend that you watch the video.]

[I’m going to promote the energy polymer blocks to the whole world. My dad is an expert in this field. He wants me to buy them through various channels.]

[Even the experts are vying for it? The energy blocks are really awesome. Don’t stop me. I’m going to buy it too!]

[+1! I’ll buy an energy block as a token of respect!]

[…]

The number of trending topics related to this matter continued to increase. Some were insulting Anthony, while others were discussing the energy polymer blocks.

Some of the experts in the country were generous with their praises for the energy polymer blocks. Their words could not hide the praise and expectations they had for Chen Ming.

Chen Ming understood that these trending topics would definitely drive up the sales of the energy polymer blocks, so he had to continue to expand the business.

…

As Chen Ming had expected, the orders for the energy polymer blocks kept coming in.

His business was booming, and there was no time for him to take a break.

The limited amount of energy polymer blocks he processed every day would be sold out in the early hours of the morning.

Therefore, Chen Ming continued to purchase garbage processing plants to mass-produce energy polymer blocks.

Seeing the endless orders come in, Chen Zhao once again felt like paying his respects to the ancestors’ graves.

Earlier, when Chen Zhao first found out that Chen Ming was involved in a storm of public opinion, he wanted to relieve his son’s burden. Even if the garbage processing plant closed down, they could still take another path.

Then, while Chen Zhao was mapping out the different options, the situation suddenly reversed, stunning him.

Chen Zhao now felt that this was the peak of his life!

However, Chen Ming did not tell him that this was just the beginning.

In the future, he would become even more powerful and influential.

No one could develop a garbage processing plant like he could!

After all, he had the system!

As Chen Ming was drowning in happiness on the sofa, the system’s voice rang out.

[Ding! Congratulations! You have completed the hidden mission, “The Plagiarism Link.” You have been rewarded with a 300-ton garbage processing quota. Please keep up the good work!]

[Processing skill obtained: Trash with less than 30% remaining usability/durability can be reconstructed. Can be upgraded in the future.]

A new skill?

Chen Ming’s eyes lit up.

If the energy polymer blocks had already caused such a huge commotion, would a new skill not result in another uproar?

Chen Ming could not wait to try out his new skill.

Just as he was looking for something to try it on, an opportunity quietly appeared beside him.

Qin Qing, who had been sitting on the sofa and watching the live broadcast repeatedly, was now frowning and pressing the TV remote control buttons.

“Tsk, what kind of useless battery is this?” Qin Qing grumbled. She lifted the back of the TV remote control and took out the battery inside. Is it out of juice?”

Qin Qing muttered gloomily.

“The quality of batteries these days is so bad,” Qin Qing sighed after confirming that the battery was dead.

Battery?

Chen Ming noticed the opportunity.

Speak of the devil. This was wonderful!

Just as Qin Qing was about to throw the battery into the trash can, Chen Ming quickly stopped her.

“Qin Qing, don’t throw it away yet.”

Qin Qing’s hand subconsciously stopped.

She looked at Chen Ming in confusion.

“Huh? Do you want this battery?”

Why would Chen Ming need a battery? Qin Qing was dumbfounded.

“I want to try and see if I can fix it,” Chen Ming explained.

“This battery isn’t that expensive. Just buy another one.” Qin Qing frowned. She could not understand Chen Ming’s actions.

“Brother Chen, you’re starting to be thrifty now?”

The teasing tone in her voice was very obvious.

However, even though she said that, Qin Qing still handed the battery over to Chen Ming.

Chen Ming took the battery and smiled.

“You’ll see in a bit.”

His mysterious words piqued Qin QIng’s curiosity.

“What is there to see?” Qin Qing asked, “Are you going to turn this battery into gold?”

It was supposed to be a joke, but Chen Ming replied seriously, “Yup,”

Qin Qing almost thought that Chen Ming had gone mad.

Could batteries be turned into gold?

Just as Qin Qing was about to question him, he continued, “I’m not turning the battery into gold, but I can make it as valuable as gold!”

Chen Ming was in high spirits, and he could not hide the excitement in his eyes.

“Then, can you demonstrate how you do that to me?” Qin Qing crossed her arms and asked.

Chen Ming shook his head and held the battery in his hand.

“I’ll try it first. It’ll be a surprise.”

After saying that, Chen Ming left the room and went elsewhere to try out his new skill.

…

When he reached a place where no one was around, Chen Ming took out the battery and activated the skill.

The next moment, the system’s voice rang out.

[Optimized battery: Special structure, can store more power, and the substances within it are biodegradable, causing no harm to the environment!]

Optimized battery!

The system’s description made Chen Ming’s lips curl up.

At present, ordinary batteries were harmful to the environment and even affected human health, which in itself was a big headache.

This time, he had created an optimized battery, which was harmless to the environment and had a higher energy storage capacity.

If the publicity was done well, it would definitely sell like hotcakes!

This was going to be explosive!
