Stand Up Guy Manwha

To the world, Salim Bakar was the "worthless" son of the elite Bakar real estate dynasty. While his brothers closed multi-million dollar deals, Salim spent his time on his phone, managing obscure influencers in the "frivolous" world of TikTok. The tension boils over at the Bakar Group’s 50th Anniversary Gala. In front of the city’s elite, Salim is publicly betrayed by his own father. "A Bakar is a lion of industry, not a lapdog for internet clowns," his father bellows. Disowned, stripped of his inheritance, and cast out into the rain, Salim is left with nothing but his smartphone. But the Bakars made a fatal mistake: they confused "quiet" with "weak." They didn't know Salim’s hidden identity. He is the "Ghost Manager," a digital genius who controls the world’s largest viral talent agency. With his Cold Protagonist mindset, Salim decides it’s time for a lesson in business. Using his God-Tier Manager System, he begins to manipulate the trends that the Bakar Group relies on for their "modern" rebranding. As Salim builds a new-media empire that dwarfs his family’s dying industry, the Bakars find themselves losing millions. Desperate, they seek a meeting with the mysterious "King of Influence" to save their company. The face-slapping begins when the boardroom doors open, and the "disgrace" they spat on is the one holding their debt. Salim isn't back for a reunion; he’s back for revenge.
