Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 393 - 388: New Year Live Stream Event (Part 4)

Chapter 393: Chapter 388: New Year Live Stream Event (Part 4)

The comment section, which had been overwhelmed by gift notifications, suddenly experienced a change.

[Third Uncle (Small Account): Any wish will do?]

Bai Xiaotang was just about to speak when Ye Tong jumped in.

"The draw is random. The wishes must be realistic and can’t violate laws or regulations."

A bunch of big shots came to the live stream to see Sister Ning, couldn’t let them take advantage of her.

Ah San scoffed, "Can’t play."

Ah Si, next to him, pointed dryly at the phone screen and said, "Look at the group before you speak."

Ah San switched the page and saw a message from Huang Ying in their little group.

[Everyone, be mindful of your language in the comment section. There’s a big leader in the live stream room.]

Ah San pursed his lips and gnawed on a chicken claw, "Big leader, how big?"

Ah Da turned his head and reminded, "Fu, Li, Ye, all three are inside."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Ah San almost choked to death on the chicken bone.

Beijing Feng Family villa.

Jin Jiaojiao was informed by a friend that Ye Tong was livestreaming, and the number of viewers had already surpassed 100,000, nearly making her stand up from the sofa in shock.

Qin Huaishu turned her head to look at her, "What’s the matter, Jiaojiao?"

Jin Jiaojiao suppressed the shock in her heart with a graceful smile on her face, "Aunt Qin, I just saw an actor from the crew livestreaming, and the number of viewers has surpassed 100,000. I’m a bit surprised by her popularity."

Qin Huaishu looked surprised. 100,000 simultaneous viewers, that’s already considered minor fame.

"Which artist?"

Qin Huaishu wondered if she could poach her over.

"I’m not sure either. It seems to be a small studio that collaborates with us. The artist is named Ye Tong, who’s been trending several times before."

Qin Huaishu’s expression instantly calmed down, and her gaze towards Jin Jiaojiao carried a hint of deeper meaning.

Don’t be fooled by Jin Jiaojiao’s seemingly casual words; in reality, she was testing her.

But she didn’t mind.

This little girl is finally getting anxious.

"Oh, so it’s her. I remember she’s from a background in group performances, currently in Director Lin’s new movie, right?"

"Yes, I’m in the same crew as her. There was a bit of misunderstanding a few days ago, but it’s all resolved now." Jin Jiaojiao saw that Qin Huaishu wasn’t unhappy, so she continued talking along the topic.

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?" Qin Huaishu hadn’t received the report from Jin Jiaojiao’s new assistant.

"A few days ago, Teacher Su came to the crew and specifically praised her. I thought she might have a connection with Teacher Su and wanted to get close to her. Unexpectedly, it backfired; it’s my fault for making wild guesses." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Jin Jiaojiao looked regretful, and her tone carried a bit of apology, "I know Aunt Qin has been trying to expand into the international market over the years, so I thought if we could establish contact with Teacher Su, it would benefit the development of Xingyu Group..."

Qin Huaishu’s face softened, and she patted Jin Jiaojiao’s hand, "Silly girl, it’s hard on you to think about Aunt Qin. You don’t need to worry about Su Qiangwei; Xingyu has some cooperation with her, not unfamiliar. You just focus on acting and expanding your social circle, and find a suitable man. Aunt Qin can fulfill your mother’s wish."

Jin Jiaojiao’s expression froze for an instant, seemingly not expecting Qin Huaishu to say this. Wasn’t she strongly encouraging her to pair with Feng Lei before?

Could she have another candidate now?

It’s impossible; it can’t be Ye Tong, right?

No way, Feng Lei is hers!

No one can take him away!

"Aunt Qin, I’m actually a bit worried."

"Worried about what?"

"Ye Tong’s livestream this time, I didn’t expect her popularity to be so high now, and since the crew isn’t shooting yet, I’m afraid some haters might say nasty things in the live stream, impacting the crew and Ye Tong personally."

The new version of "War God" has not announced the main cast yet and is in a confidential state, "Gone with the Wind" hasn’t been broadcast either. Where does Ye Tong get her popularity and traffic from?

Forget about previous trending topics; online popularity is a flash in the pan, and new hot spots always shift public attention.

Even top-tier stars can’t stay trending all the time.

Ye Tong’s live stream traffic and popularity are very puzzling.

Jin Jiaojiao’s concern carried malice, piercing into Qin Huaishu’s heart.

She’s the investor for these two dramas and fears any negative incidents with artists or crews could lead to wasted investments.

"Jiaojiao, I’m going to make a call. You watch the gala by yourself..."

Jin Jiaojiao watched the back of Qin Huaishu as she left, revealing a trace of smugness.

Don’t think you can rise in the entertainment circle and marry into the Feng Family on the strength of Feng Lei.

Feng Lei can’t make decisions for Feng Family yet!

On the other side.

With several streamers performing small acts successively, the online audience for [Brother Ning Takes on Food] live stream room has surpassed 500,000, ranking first in popularity, and boosted Bai Xiaotang’s live stream room to over 100,000 views.

Apart from people who were initially acquaintances, many passer-by fans joined in.

Looking at the handsome men and women on screen, everyone was showering them with compliments, asking for information.

[Not Home Today: This handsome young guy on the right, I want all his information within a minute.]

The person sitting on the right was Feng Yu; initially, he hadn’t noticed the message until Bai Xiaotang pointed it out, at which he looked at the camera and flashed a bright smile.

"Hello, I’m Feng Yu, 21 years old, graduate of Beijing Finance and Economics University, currently unemployed. If there are job recommendations, feel free to contact my email..."

Compared to others who interacted less, Feng Yu was quite chatty, directly taking on the role of a competent streamer instead of Bai Xiaotang.

"Huh? You want to know if the second big sister on the left is single?"

Feng Yu looked at Huang Ying, scratched his cheek, and affirmed, "She is single!"

Bai Yusen, watching the live stream and looking at comments seeking contact information, turned livid with anger and furiously typed a comment.

[Just Seeing Sister: Stop talking nonsense, she has a partner!]

Unfortunately, it was buried in the sea of comments, not even causing a tiny ripple.

In the lively comments of the live stream, Ji Ning calmly finished eating 10 bags of chips, got up to address one of life’s three urgent issues.

Some bored netizens even counted how often Ji Ning ate snacks and marveled in the comment section.

[Little Knife Baby: Among these streamers, the middle one ate 10 bags of different flavored chips consecutively within an hour; presumably, she’s Brother Ning, right?]

[Xiao Kong Loves Carriers: Little Knife, good observation.]

[Little Knife Baby: I had already noticed some people seemed acquainted with the streamers, guessing they were real-life friends called in to boost popularity.]

Unexpectedly, after [Xiao Kong Loves Carriers], a string of previously silent gift-givers suddenly started leaving comments.

[Water Baby Loves Bathing: I want to see Brother Ning singing upside down.]

[Hypnotherapist: I want to see Brother Ning doing push-ups while eating watermelon]

[Big Head Full of Fruits: I want to see Brother Ning dance in a dress]

...

"Everyone, the second wish round has ended. We’ve picked a wish to have Sister Xiaotong sing a song for everyone."

Bai Xiaotang dared to let Ji Ning live stream but not perform publicly; it’d be like digging one’s own grave, simply too audacious.

As Qin Huaishu entered the live stream, Ye Tong was singing an especially difficult foreign song.

Her voice was lovely, and the comment section contained numerous remarks about her, requests for her contact information, and encouragement to participate in talent shows.

Qin Huaishu became even more convinced that Ye Tong was livestreaming to create momentum and establish a persona.

And her son, who hadn’t returned home after the new year, was the mastermind behind this live stream.

Qin Huaishu contacted Star Entertainment Live’s upper management without expression.

"Shut down the [Brother Ning Takes on Food] live stream room. If Feng Lei questions it, say it was on my orders."
