Chapter 287 - A Righteous Man

“I knew it. How could a high school student play this well?”

“As a professional athlete myself, I agree with the comments written above. This is obviously just another way to garner more public attention for the school. If anyone can play like this, just like that, then what good are we professional players for?”

“Fortunately, we have Coach Wang to teach us. Otherwise, we’d be fooled by this fake video. Even the principal of No. 1 High School came out to lie to protect his student. This just makes me so furious!”

“Coach Wang, you really are detailed about these things. It’s no wonder my kid wants me to hire you as his coach. Name your price! I’d be happy to pay a distinguished coach such as yourself.”

The number of comments on his phone increased bit by bit. There were even a few who had privately messaged him, asking him for his rates. Even the top athletes who Wang Peng hadn’t connected with started liking his posts!

His post shot up on the top trending list within minutes!

Wang Peng threw away the chicken feet in his hand and glanced at his phone. A glint appeared in his eyes, and he immediately dialed his executive assistance.

“Hey, I’m already on the trending list! Hurry up and boost my post even more. We must seize this opportunity to get more people to know about me—Coach Wang, the best coach in the house!”

“Make sure to promote me in those training camps too. I’m sure there will be more and more people looking to hire me to train their kids. I can already smell the cash from a mile away.”

Wang Peng smirked, barking out a laugh.

In the past few years, he had just simply been a retired veteran athlete. While he had experience, he wasn’t as innovative as those young tennis coaches, and he certainly wasn’t as wildly experienced as the older coaches. He found himself, unfortunately, stuck in the mediocrity of it all.

His students were growing fewer and fewer by the year!

At this point, the money he was getting from teaching wouldn’t be able to maintain his actual lifestyle. And the last thing he wanted was to slip into poverty.

Finally, while he was in the bathroom, he stumbled upon a certain video. There was so much potential in presenting his commentary on the video. It was an opportunity to bring him to stardom!

The skill of the player, from what he had observed, was extraordinary! However, for some weird reason, he noticed that the video kept getting stuck in the middle. It just didn’t make any sense.

As being stuck was one of the characteristics of a fake video, he immediately let the people know what he thought of this scene.

Being a retired tennis player, he had the ability and the reputation to get people to believe in him.

As the righteous person who had exposed the fakeness of the video, he gained positive traction from his followers. Now, more people knew of his professional level, and he knew for a fact that he was getting profits from this!

Especially after he had bought himself some internet trolls to boost his post.

Just like that, his post immediately exploded. More and more people started leaving comments under his posts, and more people started to follow him. His account was practically exploding with private messages, begging him to be their son’s personal coach.

Everything was in accordance with his plan.

His lips curled up into a smile. His eyes were filled with greed and pride. He wouldn’t have gotten this without the help of the principal of No. 1 High School. If it weren’t for them, he wouldn’t have gotten the opportunity to make himself relevant again.

It was amazing!

Now, even his name had become even more popular amongst the Tennis Circle as well.

Soon, enough, his executive assistant called,

“Brother Peng, we’re already at third place in the top trending searches. We’ll be able to push it to the top trending search list! Now that you’ve become famous all over the country, you can easily pull me up with you.”

“Of course, I will. In just a few months, we’ll get a house in no time!”
