Chapter 256 -256: What a beautiful slap in the face!
“I… I didn’t pay attention when I bought it,” Gao Qiming was clearly a bit panicked, “I had it brought over from abroad by a friend, and I didn’t look at those details.”
“Yes, yes, totally understandable,” Wang Hao said with a smile, continuing, “Then may I ask, from which country did your friend bring it back? A difference of around six hundred thousand is no small sum, but of course, I know you’re wealthy, and that’s a trivial matter for you—we won’t delve into that—by the way, I just saw that your car is quite nice. How much did you pay for it?”
“A little over five hundred thousand,” Gao Qiming broke into a cold sweat as he quickly introduced his car: “The 2014 BMW 525li pioneering model, on-the-road price five hundred and twenty thousand. Is there any problem?” After all, BMWs are common luxuries that people encounter more often than famous watches, so Gao Qiming, having introduced his car, didn’t give himself away.
Wei Ming below also wiped his cold sweat: “That was close, that was close, luckily the guy was quick-witted…”
Then Wang Hao said one thing that brought them both to their knees.
“Ah, you look so nervous, there’s no problem with this car, but actually, I’m talking about the Passat you mentioned in the short video.” Wang Hao said with a smile: “Remember next time, if someone comes to do business with you in that kind of car, you should treat them well. Because that car is called the Phaeton, the market’s lowest price is also around one million on the road, one could buy two of your BMWs…”
As soon as Wang Hao finished his speech, everyone in the audience burst into laughter.
“Hahaha, I’m dying here, this guy actually doesn’t recognize the Phaeton!”
“I felt something was off about that car from the beginning, and now I remember after Brother Hao mentioned it.”
“Yeah, yeah, this guy, such a pretender, got exposed now, didn’t he?!”
What a slap in the face!
How could a person with assets worth tens of millions, who regularly goes out for business, not recognize a Phaeton? It’s as ridiculous as a professional race car driver not knowing what a Ferrari is.
Gao Qiming hurriedly tried to explain: “I…I just wasn’t paying attention at the time…”
“Yes, that’s understandable,” Wang Hao said happily, “You’re a bit nervous, which is normal, especially since you might not come across such things often, right? Oh, actually, your name is quite interesting, lots of historical references! We have an audience here, why don’t you explain it to everyone?”
The whole audience: “Eh? There’s a reference?”
Upon hearing Wang Hao’s question, Zheng Qitian was also surprised, and wondered aloud, “His name has a reference?”
Sun Miaoyun was also puzzled: “I didn’t notice anything special. Gao Qiming, Gao Qiming, it sounds like a pretty normal name…”
Even Wei Ming was completely baffled—did the name Gao Qiming have a historical reference?
“This… my name doesn’t have any historical reference,” Gao Qiming himself was bewildered: “It’s just what my mom named me, a pretty normal name.”
“Eh?” Wang Hao exclaimed in surprise: “You love classical Chinese literature so much, you’re well-versed in the Four Books and Five Classics, yet you don’t know the historical reference in your own name?”
This time, Gao Qiming’s sweat started streaming down once more—he truly could not articulate anything!
But he was a tough one, clenching his teeth and stomping his foot: “I really don’t know, I’ll need to learn more from Teacher Wang Hao!”
“That’s strange,” Wang Hao scratched his head: “There’s a line from the ‘Book of Poetry · Xiaoya · Da Dong’: ‘In the east there is Venus, in the west there is Procyon, to rescue the broken heavens, implementing their journey.’ The meaning is that Venus and Procyon are both names for one of the nine planets in the Solar System, Venus. Venus is the largest planet closest to Earth, revolving from east to west against the norm. Depending on the position of Venus’s orbit, when Venus appears at dusk, it is called Procyon, and when it appears at dawn, it is called Venus. Being so familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, you don’t know this?!”
After Wang Hao finished, the entire audience was dumbfounded!
Meng Fei was also shocked above—Brother Hao was simply divine! What a face slap!
Zheng Qitian exclaimed in wonder: “This Wang Hao, he’s so impressive?! This show has potential, it’s captivating!”
After a brief shock, the audience stood up, giving Wang Hao a rousing round of applause!
“Brother Hao, you’re simply divine! I admire you!”
“Brother Hao, that slap was loud and clear, hahaha!”
At this moment, all the female guests present understood—this Gao Qiming had been pretending all along!
Guest number two: “I thought what a master of classical literature, turns out to be a fraud!”
Number Six: “Exactly, pretending from head to toe, huh? Is that watch of yours rented?”
Number Twelve: “The car must be rented too!”
Number Eighteen was the cruelest: “I bet even the glasses, clothes, pants, and shoes might be rented! And you demand a woman with a kind heart, tenderness, optimism, charm, and a broad mind. How could such a woman marry a scammer like you?”
At that moment, when the iron was hot, Wang Hao said with a smile, “Actually, I just happen to read a lot of books. I’ve read a bit of everything, and luckily, my memory isn’t bad, so I can remember the gist. Speaking of the Four Books and Five Classics, there are plenty of allusions. How about I tell you about them?”
As soon as he said that, the entire audience shouted in unison, “Sure, tell us! Let him understand what the real Four Books and Five Classics are!” “Right, right, right, this guy is just faking it, he’s actually nothing!”
Seeing that the crowd inside was almost rioting, Gao Qiming, who didn’t dare to show off his skills in front of Wang Hao anymore, begged for mercy with a sweat-drenched head, “No need, no need, I’m leaving, I’m outta here!”
Then he ran off, as if he were fleeing from a disaster.
The whole audience burst into laughter. Wang Hao waved to everyone and said with a laugh, “Actually, our stage here is prepared for sincere people. However, it’s inevitable that in life we all face various challenges and troubles. Of course, those are just interludes in life; once they pass, they’re over, and there’s no need to take them too seriously.”
He said this, looking around at the entire audience, “There’s a saying in the ‘Zhou Yi’ that goes, ‘A gentleman keeps his talents hidden and acts at the right moment.’ What does it mean? It means that even if a gentleman has outstanding abilities and extraordinary skills, he doesn’t show off or flaunt them everywhere. Instead, he displays his talents or skills at the necessary moment.”
The entire audience responded with thunderous applause!
Zheng Qitian praised loudly, “Well said! And well done! This show, good!” Yes, his usual ride is a Phaeton…
Wei Ming looked ashen-faced. Seeing Mr. Zheng’s expression, he knew things were going to be bad, so he hurriedly said, “Mr. Zheng, maybe we should talk outside…”
“Don’t worry, Wei,” Mr. Zheng said with a smile. “We’ve been cooperating for so many years. You don’t need to worry; I still tend to favor you guys. After all, this program hasn’t even aired yet, right? Even if I’m interested, I still have to see the ratings before I decide, right?”

“Yeah,” Wei Ming, after all the sales manager, quickly reignited his fighting spirit, thinking to himself, “The leader is prepared for both possibilities, it seems. From now on, it’s up to me! I must win this time! With our years of cooperation, dealing with this yet-to-be-aired show will be easy? Wang Hao, right? Bad luck you ran into me, haha, another great accomplishment when I get back!”
With just a few words, Wang Hao made Gao Qiming, who had intentionally come to show off, run away with a disheveled appearance, while the audience below had a good laugh!
“Awesome, I’m bowing down! Talk about the self-cultivation of a host!”
“Talent! Pure talent! No, this is genius, no denying it!”
“So amazing!! Thumbs up!!! Who else can compete?!”
“My knees are shattered!”
“Damn! That’s just defying the heavens!”
The atmosphere in the entire studio was instantly elevated to a climax!
Meng Fei was also full of confidence now.
With Brother Hao here, there’s nothing to fear!
Meng Fei shouted loudly, “Let’s thank Brother Hao for his brilliant comments just now, did everyone think what Brother Hao said was good?”
The whole audience: “Good!”
Wang Hao: “Oh man, you’re making me blush…” Brother is just that unbeatable!
Meng Fei continued loudly: “Another one, do we want one more?”
The whole audience: “Yes!”
Wang Hao: “No more, no more, this is a dating show, not a face-slapping show, haha!”
The entire audience roared with laughter: “Brother Hao is so funny!” “Brother Hao, I love you!”
Meng Fei said with a laugh: “Now, please welcome our next male guest!”
