The character satirizes the financial market archetype and is part of a list of creations by comedian Ceará
Thursday 6, Chiquinho Scarpa revealed at the videocast of Wellington Muniz, Ceará, which once had a “dwarf farm”. The speech was criticized and the millionaire apologized on social media.
But the interview was not given exactly to Ceará, but to a new character. The team is led by “CEO PJ Neto”, a fictional presenter created by Muniz, also known as ‘Silvio Santos do Panic’ on radio and television.
Ceará’s new satire plays with the archetype of company executives based on Avenida Faria Lima (jokingly called “farialimers”). To do this, the comedian uses a wig, lenses and licked hair. On social media he has already declared that the look matches the actor John Travolta pulp Fiction with Sidney Magal. But not only.
The ‘story’ of CEO PJ Neto
The character also has his own biography and LinkedIn profile. The name is short for Paulo Jorge Almeida Neto, who interviews famous candidates to “replace” him in the position of CEO of the also fictional PJ Group.
PJ’s big dream – pun also on the acronym legal entity – is to give up his life as heir to the group, abandon his business in Brazil and open a winery and a starred restaurant in Europe.
The inspiration is humorless bosses, such as Michael Scott, played by the actor Steve Carrell in the North American version of the series The office.
The videocast shown on YouTube is part of the content of Party stoppeda profile with over 1 million followers on Instagram with jokes and memes about the corporate world.

Ceará has a list of famous people. On television he became famous for his imitation of Silvio Santos in the program Panic, shown by RedeTV! and Rede Bandeirantes between 2003 and 2017. In the company of Repórter Vesgo (Rodrigo Scarpa), Silvio was present at celebrity events, which tended to be hostile towards the duo.
In 2012, the Silvio Santo took legal action to have Ceará stop imitating him, risking a fine of R$100,000, as well as forcing him to maintain a distance of 100 metres. In 2013, the Panic in the band he appealed under the accusation of censorship and Ceará was able to imitate him again. The following year, however, the comedian left the program to join the comedy team of the Multishow channel.
Before television, the internet and the program itself Panic, Ceará was already a hit on Jovem Pan radio. In the ’90s he played Paulo Jalaska, an announcer who made prank calls, translated romantic songs and told jokes on morning tracks. The attraction lasted seven years. In 2020 she signed a contract with RecordTV as part of the cast of the then Sabrina Sato program.
Chiquinho was a ‘candidate’ for PJ Neto’s position
In this week’s episode, PJ Neto interviewed Chiquinho Scarpa who, in real life, also inherited the fortune of his grandfather, the Italian Nicolau Scarpa, and whose family invested in the first canned version of Caracu beer over the years ’70. upon investment, the Scarpa family claims to own 40 farms, sugar cane factories, metallurgical plants and was once a shareholder in the Votorantim Group.
Chiquinho has already stated in interviews that he lives in such a large villa in Sao Paulo that he doesn’t know all the rooms. In an interview with PJ Neto, the millionaire explained that he “rented” employees who also had dwarfism just to change the TV channel.
“There was the ‘nano’ remote control: once upon a time they had more controls. I had a nano that had a small tray [ao lado da cama]. I said: ‘channel 11’ [ele apertava o botão]”. Also, he said he doesn’t like poor people. “The worst thing about poor people is when you walk up to them and say ‘how are you?’. Then you’re done […] it continues to distill all the problems,” he explained.
This Friday 7th, Scarpa claimed that it was a moodboard. “Dear friends. I share the official note with you! The podcast is a humor program, where there is no shortage of representations. I am very sorry for the discomfort and the interpretations of the ‘character’ I played during the interview. I have never done a distinction between people, I have always treated everyone with great respect, I have had a public life for years and those who know me know it!”
Although Scarpa defended his CV, CEO PJ Neto was not convinced and concluded that he would leave the group’s ‘legacy’ to his grandchildren.
