Psst! We're moving!
After Luo Mingjing notified his fans that he would be going live, he was stunned the moment he entered the live room by the viewer count in the upper left corner.
The scrolling speed of the comments and the increase in viewership were basically synchronized, rapidly changing.
Luo Mingjing gasped in shock, unable to speak for a long time. But upon seeing the astonishing six-digit number, he couldn’t help but smile first.
He wasn’t incredibly famous, but this fan count was invigorating. High attention indeed brought joy.
His long-time fans, upon seeing him enter, didn’t have time to praise his self-chosen outfit or today’s makeup before quickly flooding the screen with messages:
“Congratulations on getting rich quick!”
“Fairy, you’ve made it! Look how happy you are, hahaha.”
“Yesterday, I saw you all over my social media feeds 233333.”
“Look here! Yesterday, a classmate showed me and I couldn’t resist recommending it!!!!”
“Fairy! Fairy苟富贵啊!!!”
“Rich together, sleep together!”
“Sisters! Sleep together!”
“Silently adding a brother...”
“Fairy! Let’s step into a prosperous new era!”
“Oh dear, this mother’s heart... Seeing Poor Ghost become famous makes me feel like I can start counting money too. I don’t even know what I’m excited about.”
“Become extremely popular! Get rich overnight!”
“Become extremely popular! Get rich overnight!”
“Become extremely popular, get rich overnight! Cross-dressing expert, reign forever!”
“Why do I feel like crying? My tear ducts are too sensitive...”
“Hahahaha, mom, did I join a cult? So scary hahaha.”
“Hurry up and take ads!! Quickly get rich!! Set up your clothing factory!!”
“The previous little sister cracked me up. If setting up, it should be a personal brand design studio, hahaha. What is this clothing factory nonsense...”
Amidst the barrage of ‘come see’ and ‘little dresses look so good!!’ from new fans, the blessings from long-time fans struggled to unite under the banner of “get rich quick.”
Luo Mingjing softly said thanks and explained, “There’s no plan for today’s live stream. Lately, I’ve been busy with design drafts, but I still want to thank everyone because I got famous last night... cough, thank you all for retweeting. Actually, I just found out this morning... Many new fans have come, so today I’ll answer questions from newcomers. You ask, and I’ll pick questions to answer.”
Xu Qianqian and Shi Min were both in the living room. Xu Qianqian mainly came to get Italian language tutoring from Luo Mingjing, while Shi Min, as a temporary guardian, set up a small desk for her at the studio window sill to focus on her review.
However, her study state wasn’t very optimistic. When Luo Mingjing started his live stream, she secretly clicked into the live room to watch.
A new fan asked, “Why are you called Fairy?”
“It’s a long story…” Luo Mingjing laughed, “When I first started streaming, a girl asked me why it was called ‘Bright Mirror Reflecting Fairies.’ I said it’s because it has my name in it, but they didn’t guess ‘Bright Mirror,’ didn’t guess ‘Reflecting,’ they insisted I was called Fairy… Well then, Fairy it is.” Remembering Shi Min’s words, he smiled tenderly, “After all, you being happy is what matters...”
“Did you get plastic surgery?! Did you? Did you get double eyelids and hyaluronic acid injections?!”
Luo Mingjing paused for a moment, replying, “Would saying natural beauty get me beaten?”
A large wave of 233333 passed through the bullet comments, but this new fan kept asking if he had surgery or not.
“Did you get double eyelids?”
“Absolutely had surgery; if not, I’ll eat my keyboard live! Plastic surgery plus marketing, wild chicken internet sensation!”
“With such a high nose bridge, definitely had surgery. As a professional, he also padded his chin and planted lashes. Anyone with eyes can tell.”
Feeling good, Luo Mingjing replied with a smile, “If you say I had surgery, then I did... Being happy is what counts.”
“Hahahaha, is the Fairy infected with the happiness virus?”
“Of course, waking up one morning to find yourself famous, how could you not be happy?”
“Hahahaha, look at him radiating Buddha’s light today, hahaha, he’s so calm.”
“The power of getting rich quick, every third sentence he says contains happiness.”
“Fairy, ignore those people. Once you’re famous, all kinds of KY will come, annoying.”
“I initially wanted to curse, but seeing how happy the Fairy is, I won’t bother. This kind of KY should be ignored, don’t give them presence.”
“Those jumping around must be living bitter lives.”
“Damn, why am I cursing? He’s just a painter and clothes designer, not entering showbiz. Why would he need plastic surgery? Does your clothing store require plastic surgery too?”
Luo Mingjing said, “Stay calm, move on. Still, I want to say, I’m a nice person, not at all angry. New fans can safely be cute here. Alright, let’s ask you, what are you interested in? You can request… Eighteen-plus content is not considered, since there are definitely minors.”
“I want to see you cross-dress and draw eighteen-plus!”
“Anything is fine, as long as you go live, I can lick the screen all day without you saying a word!”
“Cross-dress and chat about daily life, anything!!”
“I want to see you teach makeup seriously…”
“Hentai manga! Hentai manga! Hentai manga!”
Xu Qianqian, who was secretly watching the live stream, chuckled. After laughing, she felt as if a thousand-pound stone was pressing down on her head. She looked up and screamed.
Caught red-handed slacking off by Shi Min.
Xu Qianqian screamed, “Oh my god, you scared me to death...”
Shi Min tapped her fingers on the open page of the book Xu Qianqian hadn’t touched, signaling her to focus on her studies.
Xu Qianqian sighed, covering her mouth and whispering, “My brother asked you to supervise... And you’re really supervising.”
In the live room, the bullet comments flooded with questions for Luo Mingjing: “Holy crap, was that a female voice?! Do you have a girlfriend?!”
“Holy crap...”
“So it wasn’t my hallucination? Kick this bowl of dog food!”
“What?????????? Since when?!”
“No listening, no listening, turtle chanting sutras.”
Luo Mingjing said, “It’s my sister.” He turned his head and called Xu Qianqian over, stepping aside to make room, “Come say hi, one sentence is enough.”
Xu Qianqian happily ran over, making a V sign to the camera: “Yeah! Actually, I’m his girlfriend.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she got hit on the head by Luo Mingjing: “Don’t cause trouble.”
“Let me tell you a secret. My brother and I had plastic surgery together, sibling package deal, second person half price. By the way, we also pulled in our uncle, dad, and younger brother for a family package deal, super cost-effective.” Xu Qianqian said, “I don’t know what else to say, so wish everyone an early Happy New Year. Hope you all live interesting lives, think before you speak!”
Luo Mingjing pushed her out, gently instructing, “Alright, stop fooling around, go study.”
Sitting back down, the comments had changed tone.
“The sister looks so similar...”
“Just now, the person asking about surgery, seeing you get slapped so quickly makes me so happy.”
“Fairy is bad, deliberately bringing his sister over hahaha, but watching the slap fight feels great!”
“The sister is so cute! I’m in love!”
“Ahhhhhh!!! Why is this so unfair!!”
“First time seeing the sister, so nice, both highly educated and highly attractive.”
“Damn! How tall is your sister, Fairy?! Are you two siblings just touring the mortal world?!”
Luo Mingjing gestured with his hand: “Enough, enough, know when to stop, don’t overdo it, it’ll inflate. Here’s a quick sketch gift for you. I need to finish my drafts today, let me think about what to draw... Hmm, a cat couple’s bed photo.”
The bullet comments burst into laughter.
Xu Qianqian hummed a song as she came out, seeing Shi Min leaning against the windowsill, seemingly waiting for her. The woman with an imposing presence of one meter eighty sipped her coffee leisurely. Finally, she glanced lightly at Xu Qianqian.
She put down her coffee cup, the cup and saucer clinking with a soft sound that made Xu Qianqian break out in cold sweat.
Xu Qianqian immediately reacted, making a gesture of kneeling and apologizing, whispering, “Sister Min, I was wrong! That was a joke! My relationship with my brother is pure, heaven knows, I have absolutely no interest in German bone diseases!”
Shi Min spoke indifferently but said, “I just looked at your test paper, quite a few mistakes...”
Xu Qianqian was quick-witted and knew this matter wasn’t over. She ran over, holding Shi Min’s hand and swearing, “Don’t be jealous, we’re cousins! Within three generations of blood relatives!”
Shi Min smiled silently, seemingly not caring about these things.
Xu Qianqian said, “I swear, it was definitely a joke, I’m used to saying it. Let me explain from the beginning. When I first entered university, my roommate was extremely snobbish, showing off her one-meter-eight boyfriend with three legs every day in our dormitory. I disliked her, so occasionally I had my brother pretend to be my boyfriend picking me up for dinner downstairs. Of course, it was clarified later. We took this as a joke, and I got used to it, just teasing my brother for fun... Today, I lost my mind studying, forgot you were here... Ah, no, I haven’t gotten used to him having a girlfriend.”
Xu Qianqian carefully peeked inside, leaned close to Shi Min, and whispered, “I really thought my brother wouldn’t get a girlfriend... He... Let me tell you something, don’t tell my brother.”
Admittedly, she successfully changed the topic.
Shi Min slightly raised an eyebrow, hearing Xu Qianqian say, “I won’t elaborate on the reasons. I just remind you to observe him usually. My brother generally keeps a distance from women... Ah, no, from men too. But I mean he isn’t physiologically repelled; don’t misunderstand him as hating women or something. He mainly avoids suspicion as a habit... Sometimes, I thought he’d spend his whole life alone...”
Xu Qianqian gave a thumbs up, “So, you’re really impressive. To tame my brother, you’re amazing.”
Thus, Luo Mingjing officially embarked on his path as an internet sensation. Not long after, Fiona sent several collaboration invitations from big manufacturers: “Sis, it’s a success! Brother-in-law can keep followers, so we withdrew the marketing plan later. Great job... These manufacturers are quite reputable internationally, let Brother-in-law choose one.”
Half a month later, Luo Mingjing signed a joint development contract and confidentiality agreement with a reputable manufacturer for the 24 Solar Terms series, taking the first step for his personal brand, Mirror·World Clothing. After the New Year, the Solar Terms series would be promoted under the name Mirror·World, officially launching the 24 Solar Terms market project.
At Yuefeng Entertainment, with the year-end approaching, almost everyone in the company was extremely busy.
Wang Zhenyu knocked on the door of the media department office and asked, “Is Xiao Zhou here? I came to pick up the final drafts for the three New Year stage designs.”
Only interns were in the office, pointing to the empty seat ahead: “They’re all in meetings. Senior, look around. Miss Zhou mentioned this morning, they should be on the table.”
Wang Zhenyu smiled, “Just call me Kevin. Calling me senior is too formal.”
Senior sounded too outdated.
He walked over, and when the intern lowered their head, he pursed his lips and silently mouthed: lowbrow.
The chief planning editor and Fiona’s desks were next to each other. After Wang Zhenyu picked up the final drafts, he began examining the items on Fiona’s desk, picking them up one by one, laughing at the pink girlish taste of the desk owner.
There were a few romance novels in the bookends. Half-mocking, half-scornful, Wang Zhenyu glanced over and pulled out a folder next to the novels.
“Moyu Live Streaming Contract (Revenue Sharing to Main Promotion)”
Party A: Yuefeng Entertainment Moyu Live Culture Co., Ltd.
Party B: Luo Mingjing
Wang Zhenyu’s eyes narrowed, flipping through a few pages, seeing a marketing plan:
Media Department Host Bright Mirror Reflecting Fairies Marketing Plan (Draft)
On the marketing plan, the drafter had marked an X after Luo Mingjing’s education level, noting: Dropped out of college, promotion needs to avoid.
Wang Zhenyu glanced back at the intern, smirked, took out his phone, and snapped a picture of this marketing plan.
