Lu Zhenqiu was shocked by [My dream top, Zhenqiu]'s words in the stream. Her fans were also shocked too. The red envelopes given out in the live broadcast room are random. They can give out a big red envelope in the stream. After following the streamer and the viewer can receive it. It’s just a matter of how much. No one has ever sent more than 1,000 in a stream. Most streamers celebrate their birthdays by sending 888 to celebrate. This [My dream top, Zhenqiu] is so rich. After the sentence if she loses, she is going to send 8888 red envelopes, the stream was filled with excitement!
Lu Zhenqiu watched helplessly as one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight... shares of the stream increased, and then the number of fans following her jumped by leaps and bounds. After refreshing, she had 400 more followers, afterwards 700 more followers and later 1000 more followers.
She was stunned, and immediately sent a private message to [My dream top, Zhenqiu]. She thought about what to send for a long time and did not know what to call her and finally sent: [Boss, are you there?]
Boss? Jin Shuilan couldn't hold back when she saw this name. Her lips raised and her eyes were filled with smiles. She said: [I’m here.]
Lu Zhenqiu: [The red envelopes that you talked about is unnecessary. The PK is just a task, so you don’t have to spend so much money.]
Sanshui has a PK task, which takes half an hour to an hour every day, with about five or six games, and can have OT. Although she also hopes that she receives more gifts, because she has a 50% share, but such gifting which costs tens of thousands, it isn’t necessary.
Jin Shuilan wanted to laugh. When other streamers see her throw gifts like this, don't they want to come over and get on her good side? She also expected Lu Zhenqiu to be called a "Fu Po Jiejie[1]" like everyone else.
But it’s okay, it doesn’t matter if she is called a Fu Po or not, she is happy if she is called Jiejie.
What would it feel like if she called her Jiejie?
Jin Shuilan coughed slightly, interrupting her fantasy, and suppressed the numbness in her body due to the imagination. Just as she was about to reply, he saw a message from Ji Zibo: [You have met your opponent!]
The screenshot is a picture of the stream, where she said she was giving out 8888 red envelopes.
Ji Zibo: [Wow, this picture has gone viral in the circle. People say that a Fu Po spent a lot money to chase the streamer. She smashed ten Warship of Love when she entered. She also made harsh comments, saying that if she lost a PK today, she would give out 8888 red envelopes, A lot of people in our group went to follow her.]
She originally laughed it off, but she saw someone familiar, it turns out to be Lu Zhenqiu. That wasn’t going to happen on her watch and had to tip off Jin Shuilan. Who didn’t know that Jin Shuilan likes Lu Zhenqiu.
The message was sent, but there was no reply. Ji Zibo: [Are you not there? ]
Jin Shuilan: [I’m here. ]
Ji Zibo: [What are you thinking about? Hurry up and go online to compete with the Fu Po! ]
Jin Shuilan: [Why should I fight with myself?]
Ji Zibo: [? ? ? ]
Ji Zibo: [? ? ? ? Damn it, it’s you, I was wondering who would come up with such a coquettish name.]
Jin Shuilan: [...]
Ji Zibo: [I understand now, you are trying every means to increase the salary of the person you like!]
Half of Jin Shuilan's money went into Lu Zhenqiu's pocket, and the other half went to Sanshui. The key is that Sanshui belongs to her family, which is equivalent to giving half to the person she likes and half to herself.
Is she at a loss?
It’s not a loss at all! After she she announced in Lu Zhenqiu’s stream, there will be a lot of people waiting to PK with Lu Zhenqiu later. Everyone would be curious or finds it interesting and would follow her. After that night, Lu Zhenqiu’s stream will have more than 100,000 followers, especially during the night when the traffic is higher, and now word has spread. They would crowd into the stream later. She just took a look and shared the link into the group.
This traffic made her money spent worth it, and it is more useful than any recommendation list to newcomers.
Furthermore, when it comes to PK, she has already put down her words and will not let Lu Zhenqiu lose, so why shouldn’t the opponent try their best to make her lose? After going back and forth, after deducting the streamers share in gifts, all the remaining money goes into her pocket, which not only increases the salary of the people she likes, but also promotes Lu Zhenqiu's popularity, and she can also collect money, killing three birds with one stone.
As expected of Jin Shuilan.
Ji Zibo sent a gif saying that you are talented, Jin Shuilan remained calm, and after two seconds, Ji Zibo: [Are you still at the magazine? Has the contract been signed?]
Jin Shuilan tilted her head and looked at both sides. Tea and snacks were prepared for her in the lounge, but Zhao Siran never came in. She replied to Ji Zibo: [No.]
Ji Zibo: [Did you hear the news? ]
Jin Shuilan: [Yes.]
Not long after she came to the magazine, she received news that the sudden reduction in royalties was indeed for a reason. Someone wanted to make Tang Yingxia popular, they took money from her. On the other hand,It was 6 million, 100 thousand copy and 18% royalty. On the one hand, it is a a booked signed at a low price for two years, the royalty within two years will not exceed 12% and to total quotation is 1 million without a price increase.
This was obviously Tang Yingxia.
She doesn’t know when they got in contact with Tang Yingxia. She guesses it’s because Tang Yingxia has a wide audience now and has to potential to become popular. If they sign her now, they will earn more in the future. Therefore the boss has the confidence to decrease her royalties.
Even if they can’t negotiate with her, they can still try and make Tang Yingxia popular no matter what happen and wouldn’t lose out.
And even if the price is reduced by four points, this condition is still one of a kind in the industry and no one can afford to give it to Jin Shuilan. Based on this condition, the boss then dares to lower the condition.
Ji Zibo: [I don't understand. It isn’t the first time they have cooperated with you. What makes them think the benefits you can bring are comparable to Tang Yingxia's? Do they think that the money made from publishing your books is because of their promotion?]
Therefore, they wanted to promote Tang Yingxia as the second Jin Shuilan?
Whimsical!
Jin Shuilan's eyebrows and eyes were calm, and Ji Zibo asked again: [Why are you still there?]
Jin Shuilan replied to her: [Watching her stream.]
Ji Zibo: [...]
She clicked into Lu Zhenqiu's stream and found that Jin Shuilan had sent in more than a dozen Warship of love while chatting with her. The one red and one blue ranking of the PK were clinging on.
Sanshui's PK time is the shortest amongst all platforms, and the requirements are not high. In the past, some platforms required entertainment streamers to spend no less than three hours in daily PK, because they did not want to see their favourite streamers lose in the PK, the viewers would spend money into them, but this situation in Sanshui is relatively rare.
There are also the times of calling people during the PK, calling the fans of the two sides to gift, but those are streamers with a large fan base. But this situation that Lu Zhenqiu is facing especially when it’s just her first day of streaming on Sanshui, has never been seen before.
The popularity it brought because of her situation was indeed high. Netizens shared the link with friends, Weibo, and Sanshui's forum. People who were resting came to watch the stream on both sides. Some of Lu Yan's die-hard fans also participated in the PK, but no matter how much they spent, Lu Zhenqiu always had one more Warship of Love than them.
The growth of Lu Zhenqiu's followers was visible to the naked eye is like sesame seeds blooming steadily, breaking through 10,000 within five minutes.
The live broadcast room was noisy.
[Wow! Is this considered the largest PK this year? ]
[I think so, I have been watching Sanshui for more than half a year, and this is the first time I have seen a PK with such a large amount involved.]
[This newcomer streamer has her own fanbase and it’s a Fu Po fanbase, Fu Po hug me!]
[Zhenqiu? Such a familiar name, is it the Zhenqiu who dubbed the radio drama for xxx?]
[Yes Yes! Our Qiuqiu have a sweet voice, you won’t lose out if you fan her. If you like it, you can follow her.]
[Followed, waiting for the lucky draw]
After this bullet comment was sent, it was copied and pasted. Lu Zhenqiu's followers jumped to more than a thousand.
She smiled during the stream: "Thank you everyone for your follow, thank you for your likes, thank you [Xiaoyu]... ..., thank you for the love"
After she finished speaking, she received a message from the administrator. [Qiuqiu, you can put the title as “if I lose, I will give out 8888 red envelope”, do you want me to change it for you?]
Lu Zhenqiu:? ? ?
She immediately replied: [No need.]
After replying to the administrator's message, she looked at the chat with [My dream top, Zhenqiu]'s again, there was no reply. But this person kept throwing gifts.
Lu Zhenqiu: [Boss?]
The administrator sent her another message: [Don't need? Maybe it seems to be too ostentatious, Qiuqiu, do you want to add two more PK games today, to increase the streaming time and popularity.]
Lu Zhenqiu didn't want to think about it. She just wants to contact this [My dream top, Zhenqiu] right now, but [My dream top, Zhenqiu] didn’t reply to the message she had sent to her.
She didn't know what to do, and asked the administrator: [Can you contact [My dream top, Zhenqiu]?]
Administrator: [Huh? Isn't she your friend?]
They all thought she was Lu Zhenqiu's friend. As it was her first day at Sanshui and came to support her. Lu Zhenqiu had no energy to type: [No, so can you contact her?]
Administrator: [No, we can only send messages internally, but you can ask her to add your WeChat.]
Lu Zhenqiu was speechless.
She doesn't even reply to private messages, what more to add her WeChat.
Lu Zhenqiu pursed her lips, thanked the stream for the gifts, and at the same time sent [My dream top, Zhenqiu]: [Boss, check out the private message.]
Jin Shuilan saw the private message popping up from the top of the screen. She didn't click it. The PK had reached its last minute. Lu Yan viewers was sending lots of gifts. The points of the PK gradually increased. People in the two streams were worried, especially Lu Yan. She watched the PK ranking go from her being lesser to having more, surpassing Lu Zhenqiu.
Hold on for thirty seconds! Hold on for another thirty seconds!
Her voice was hoarse during the stream, and it didn't last for a moment, and there were ten seconds left before the end of the time! Nine seconds! Eight seconds! Seven seconds! At this moment, she had forgotten the soreness all over her body caused by squatting, and she had also forgotten her current stream background, all her eyes were filled with those red words. Six seconds! Five seconds! Four seconds! Win! She’s going to win!
Just when she was about to break the news and the fans' hearts in both streams were at their highest, Lu Zhenqiu's stream was covered with a layer of purple. [My dream top, Zhenqiu] Sent [Zhenqiu] The Warship of Love X11.
In the last three seconds, the PK ranking of Lu Zhenqiu stream suppressed Lu Yan quickly, and Lu Yan's words were held back in her stomach, Her face was livid, she had received nearly a hundred thousand in gifts just now, and her share would be seventy to eighty thousand, but she was not happy.
Lu Zhenqiu's stream was filled with “WTF” and the special effects brought by the gifts. Lu Zhenqiu was sitting on a chair, and Lu Yan gritted her teeth and smiled: "Then what is the punishment this time?"
Before Lu Zhenqiu could say anything, the bullet screen was filled with: [Let the Fu Po decide!]
[Whatever the Fu Po Jiejie says would be the punishment!]
Lu Zhenqiu said: "I will listen to the boss."
She thought the boss wouldn't send a comment, but after two seconds, [My dream top, Zhenqiu] sent: [The loser will meow three time.]
This punishment is simple and not painful. After all, considering that she is a girl, she didn't make excessive demands, which is quite considerate.
Lu Yan's ashen complexion improved, and she said with a smile: "Okay, whatever the boss says, when you come to my stream, I will give you administrator."
When Jin Shuilan heard this, she was opening the private message, which had all kinds of begging and pitiful emojis sent by Lu Yan to her. Below was two messages sent by Lu Zhenqiu.
She replied to Lu Zhenqiu: [Emm?]
Lu Zhenqiu's hands trembled when she saw the private message, and she quickly sent a message to Jin Shuilan: [Boss, have you read the private message? There is no need to spend so much money. I only have three PK games left. I will give out the 8888 red envelopes afterwards.]
She will take it that she lost 3 rounds of PK.
After the three rounds, she will close the PK.
Jin Shuilan's eyes flashed with a smile when she read the message she sent, and she sent Lu Zhenqiu: "Have you read a novel before?"]
With a sentence with no context, Lu Zhenqiu was stunned when she saw the message. It took her several seconds to reply: ["Yes."]
Jin Shuilan: [Have you ever read this genre of novel before? The more money the protagonist spends, the more she earns?]
Lu Zhenqiu blinked with disbelief.
Jin Shuilan: [I am in this situation now, do you believe me? ]
Lu Zhenqiu:...
Why would I believe in you!!
Author says:
Jin Shuilan: No, my wife, believe me, it's true!
Lu Zhenqiu: Which hospital did this woman escape from?
[1] Elder sister in Chinese, it sounds more ambiguous with this name, so I decided to use this pinyin
