I'm A Baller

Chapter 310: Tiny Anger

The recharge was much faster when Wangting Entertainment transferred the money.

He Miaomiao looked at the nearly 15 million shark fin in her newly registered account. She was so excited that she wanted to put on a great show right away.

It was a rare sense of freshness. She did not think about money at all but completely enjoying it.

Wang Yan wondered: what kind of family could raise such a girl?!

When she squandered, she had no idea at all.

However, Miss He did not have the awareness of a squandering woman at all. She pulled Wang Yan and asked him all sorts of questions.

“Wang Yan, Wang Yan, what gift should I swipe later? Which one is the best?”

Young Master Wang was very speechless.

“Miss, you have to swipe 30,000 rockets before you can clear all the shark fins. Swiping other cheap gifts would not enough to tire you out…

In the future, no matter where you go to play, you can just watch and not farm. If you want to make a move, just throw the rockets. Otherwise, when will you be able to spend so much shark fins?”

“Oh!”

He Miaomiao nodded her head in confusion, taking Director Wang’s education to heart.

Wang Yan did not know that his casual words had actually created a goddess of rockets that all streamers of the platform feared, loved, and hated.

This was something to be said in the future.

…

When it was almost 6 o’clock, Triple Xin and the other tycoons who had gone out to relax returned to the scene.

They didn’t left together, but when they returned, there was three of them.

Triple Xin gave Wang Yan a sidelong glance and a disdainful smile appeared on his face.

Black Tiger had been flirting with the miss etiquette everywhere. He didn’t have a target at all. He was moving around, making people unable to understand his thoughts.

Logically speaking, with Black Tiger’s handsome looks and wealth, if he really targeted a flirt, the chances of him winning the favor of the girl were very high.

However, this fellow was not getting any job done. There was a big word written all over his face: unreliable.

In comparison, Li Yixu was simply too calm. Ever since he got to know Mi Zi, he had been mingling in the fan club. He was especially close to the people.

At 6 pm sharp, the live broadcast began to warm up.

The official live broadcast room opened. Xiao Cang, the most popular girl in the live broadcast world, who had just been poached, appeared on stage and began to host.

The official live broadcast room was split into two screens. Xiao Cang was on the left, and the arena was on the right.

At this moment, it was still not the time for the contestants to appear on stage. There were all sorts of introductions at the moment.

One had to admit that at this moment, Xiao Cang’s fame, status, and popularity were at their peak.

Although using a game streamer to host a mukbang was a little out of place, Wang Yan had no reason to stop the platform from wanting a win-win situation, right?

The name of the live broadcast room was very bombastic — The Third China’s Big Eater Competition.

A mere Fish platform was not worthy of the word “China”, but who asked Wang Yan and Wangting Entertainment to start the mukbang?

No matter how jealous the other platforms were, it could not change the fact that the traffic was declining.

Mr Shi sat at the event venue of Fish Platform and received the report from his own platform. His heart was full of bitterness.

“Leader, the access data of our platform has dropped by 5% since 5:30 pm compared to the same period last Saturday. It is still in a rapid decline. We estimate that the overall data may drop by more than 20% .”

After sorting out his emotions, Mr Shi tried his best to ask calmly, “What’s the situation on the other platforms?”

“We can’t get the data, but from our observation, it should be the same. The activity on the Fish Platform has been too big.”

“It’s fine. It’s not your fault. After all, they have been doing various promotions for a week. Let’s let them be happy for a day.”

“Alright, Mr Shi. Then, should we ban those rhythmic trolls? I’m afraid they would…”

I was more afraid than you!

Mr Shi sighed helplessly. “Don’t. Those live streamers might not be easy to control, after all, they might not be trolls.”

These words were reasonable.

Now, a large portion of the users who knew how to play live stream were running around the major platforms. Wherever the excitement was, they immediately swarmed over to watch.

The explosive popularity of Panda TV on the opening day was brought about by Principal Wang.

Following that, Baby broadcast and Park Ni-mai broadcast had each set off a wave of peaks.

The source of its popularity naturally came from other platforms.

Today was the same situation. The players could not stop it. They could only watch as the Fish Platform popularity explode.

“Wang Yan, oh Wang Yan, you’re like with redoubled power…”

Sighing, Mr Shi gave one last order, “Pay attention to the data of the recharging accounts for the next two days. If the drop is more than 2%, report immediately!”

“Yes, Mr Shi, I’ll look into it!”

Returning to his seat, Mr Shi was still a little worried.

It was not scary for platform users to join in the fun. There were only a few truly sensational events that could be counted on one hand. How many times in a year?

The scary thing was… They never came back.

Sigh!

Hopefully, they would not be so unlucky…

The number of visits to the major platforms dropped corresponded to the surge in the number of visits to the Fish Platform.

Wang Jianhao happily accepted his subordinate’s real-time report and immediately relayed it to the boss of the platform, President Chen.

“The actual number of visitors has increased by about 72,000. It is estimated that the peak of the total number of independent IP visits will exceed 500,000. President Chen, we can proudly announce that the event is very successful!”

President Chen replied, “Pay attention to expanding the capacity of the live broadcast room in a timely manner. We must ensure that it is smooth.

In addition, tell the internal streamers that when it was time to take advantage of the popularity, they should do it. Ask them to raise their spirits and do a good job in the content. How many fans they could convert today would depend on their individual strength and hard work.

The battlefield before 11 o’clock belongs to the mukbang streamers, but after 11 o’clock, it’s for everyone.

They have to know how to see the opportunity and grasp it.

You have to take a long-term view. Today we are making a loss or making a profit is not important. What is important is the market share.

Where has Shi Xiangdong from Panda gone? Be careful.”

Wang Jianhao immediately made a guarantee, “President Chen, don’t worry. I will keep an eye on old Shi!”

“Why are you looking at him? I told you to be careful of Wang Yan! Serve Wang Yan well. Wangting Entertainment is our ally. If we can’t protect Wang Yan well, even without Shi Xiangdong, there is still Niu Xiangxi. Get the point!”

“Yes, yes, yes!”

Wang Jianhao was so sweaty as he was lectured. The pride that he had when he added another 10 million yuan to his account just now was instantly gone.

This was the difference how one looked at the big picture.

From the perspective of the whole platform development, 10 million points was an eye-catching achievement and publicity, but it was not so indispensable.

Wangting Entertainment, which could create such a big scene, monopolize the mukbang market, and constantly convert new viewers, was truly indispensable.

Or to put it more bluntly — Wang Yan was indispensable.

It was not that the Fish Platform did not want to bring out their own eating broadcast to get rid of Wangting Entertainment.

However, if they could bring out a big streamer by force, then the top traffic in the entertainment circle would not be so valuable.

There was a well-known saying in the circle: small popularity depended on flattery, big fame depended on fate.

If it was not that piece of material, no flattery could help. Here, you could @so-and-so, who had the most right to speak.

If it was that piece of material. Nothing much needed to be done and it would be inexplicably popular. Here, @so-and-so.

There were both positive and negative examples, and there were more than ten or eight of them. Therefore, in any industry related to content output, the sober person could recognised that the driving force of capital was less than the quality of the content itself.

No matter how much you tried to hype up a bad movie or a bad novel, it wouldn’t make any difference.

Similarly, a big live streamer couldn’t be promoted just because they had enough exposure and resources.

Money was in the hands of the audience. If they didn’t like the streamer and didn’t want to spend money on him, how could the platform go and snatch it from them?

It wasn’t like the Fish Platform hadn’t tried it before.

During the second Big Eater Competition, they had specially sent out Rabbit and Waiter Black to participate in the competition to gain popularity.

As a result, Waiter Black sank to the bottom once he left while Rabbit only stayed at the second-line position and did not advance an inch.

In fact, the heat stirred up by two of the four mukbang streamers was questionable, too. It was due to their strong luck.

However, who asked them to follow Wang Yan and ate the first bite of crab?

It was a huge empty virgin land. They stepped on the wind and jumped, directly occupying the position. Behind them, they were wholeheartedly assisted by Wangting Entertainment. In a short period of time, they would not afraid of any challenges.

Therefore, Wang Yan’s position was very stable.

The more successful today’s event was, the more stable it would be.

Turning the tables and negotiating with the major platforms with a stronger attitude?

That would be normal and reasonable.

That was why Wang Yan was so confident in the strategy of becoming a big internet celebrity.

The platform was originally a difficult part to deal with. They were blood-sucking, strong and arrogant.

But in the face of Wangting Entertainment, even Fish Platform could not be arrogant, let alone the other small platforms?

This was called —

One step at a time. Victory would follow slowly.

One step ahead, leading would be possible step by step.

To be honest, Wang Yan himself found it baffling that the situation had developed to this point.

Back then, he only made the decision that was most suitable for the environment and could maximize the benefits. How did it develop to this point?

However, in the eyes of Wang Jianhao, Mr Shi, and the other live streaming platforms, things were not so simple.

Mr Lin from Hong Rong clumsily opened his phone’s live broadcast interface and looked at the lively bullet comments inside. His interest grew as he listened to Mr Shi’s explanation.

“According to you, the host is a big internet celebrity. But the event hasn’t even started yet, why does the audience still seem to be most concerned about mukbangs and not the host?”

Mr Shi sighed, “The title of the Big Eater Competition has long been established. Many viewers are eagerly waiting for the third live broadcast.

However, President Wang was not in a hurry to cash in. He stabilized himself for nearly two months so that the streamers could digest their fans and stabilize their fundamentals. Only then did he suddenly throw out the bomb.

1888 for a bowl of Haagen-Dazs ice cream with the Australian Green Dragon spicy hotpot…

It was rare for him to think of it!

It was rare for him to be willing to spend so much money, too!

And it was extraordinary for him to be able to hold it in for so long without revealing any information!

Today, the outcome would be the same no matter who was the host. We can’t really invite a popular celebrity like Yang Mi, right?”

Mr Lin nodded in deep agreement and asked again, “So, what level of popularity is the event today?”

Mr Shi solemnly raised his index finger, “Number one in history!”

“Ah…”

Mr Lin sucked in a breath of cold air. A moment later, he let out a heartfelt sigh.

“President Wang may be young, but his foresight and ability to see the big picture with every step he takes is truly terrifying!”

“That’s true!”

Mr Shi nodded his head.

“Back then, when the first Big Eater Competition was broadcasted, there was a lot of ridicule on the Internet. However, when four of them fought steadily step by step and became a big live streamer, its popularity increased day by day in the Internet. Since then, no one dared to bring up the derision of the retard.

However, there were quite a number of people who felt that I could do it too.

Admittedly, along the way, Wangting Entertainment had traces to follow, and their network was clear. It seemed that everything was going smoothly, and it was not difficult at all.

However, didn’t this just prove how terrifying Director Wang was?”

“That’s right!”

Mr Lin touched his palms and sighed.

“Everyone in the company knows how difficult it is to come out with a detailed plan for a year.

Three steps, five steps?!

Whoever able to do well in the present would be an outstanding talent at that moment!

What about Director Wang?

Three competitions, one step at a time. He can fire people, fire companies, make a name for himself, and make money. He can do everything in one go. He’s a business genius!”

Mr Shi smiled bitterly and suddenly lowered his voice.

“That’s why our big boss is so attentive…

You don’t know that our big boss suffered a setback at Director Wang’s hands back then!

With his temper, he shouldn’t have spoken to Director Wang at all. He would have refused to talk to him.

But?

Don’t we still have to go around the corner to woo him?”

Mr Lin’s eyes flashed. He thought to himself, “No, I can’t trust your platform. I have to seize the opportunity while Wang Yan is still on Fish Platform to secure the cooperation for the fourth competition!”

However, his face was beaming with blessings, “Mr Shi, I wish you all the best. I wish you all the best!”

…

Business genius, Wang Yan was accompanying Miss He to watch the bullet comments on the sand sculpture. She was laughing like an Akita.

“Wang Yan, why are those people so funny? hahaha!”

He Miaomiao pointed at one of the bullet comments and laughed until she slipped. She half-leaned on Wang Yan’s shoulder and forgot everything.

It was someone called [Peach Blossom Qianqian]. On the bullet comments, it said, “I have a pot in front of me. The water in the pot is hot. Please start quickly. My Master Kang’s instant noodles can’t wait any longer! Note: it’s shrimp balls flavour. Are you afraid?”

It might not be that funny while reading it alone. But it looked especially funny when paired with the numerous “I’m eating hotpot”, “I’m craving hotpot”, and “I’m looking for a hotpot restaurant”.

Then, it triggered a flurry of replies.

“Don’t worry, go to the snack shop and ask for two frozen prawns. Throw them in and cook them together. After they’re out of the pot, quickly scrape some ice in the fridge and cover it up. Soon, you’ll eat like Mi Zi!”

“I really can’t afford wagyu during last competition. I’m very happy eating hotpot today. Seeing you, big brother, I’m even happier.”

“Handsome Kang is 1.6 yuan cheaper than Master Kang for the same type of shrimp ball noodles. Big brother, you won’t mess the meal since you’re paying more!”

“I don’t even have instant noodles. I only have a popsicle. I’m going to quietly lick it until the sky turns dark.”

“I don’t even have a refrigerator in my house. No way I can scrape the ice. Looking at the heroic big brothers, I can’t help but shed tears of poverty and grievance…”

Miss He had never played a live broadcast before, so she was really caught off guard when she suddenly saw the king of jokes.

However, what kind of joke had Young Master Wang not seen before?

He didn’t find them very funny… Well, the main thing was that He Miaomiao’s posture was a little distracting.

The faint fragrance lingering at the tip of her nose and some touch that she unintentionally fell on Wang Yan made him slightly uncomfortable — really, just a little!

In order to resolve that uneasiness, Wang Yan held He Miaomiao’s waist very naturally and leaned his head closer, “Which sentence? Let me see!”

Miss He laughed so hard that she could not breathe. She did not realize anything and pointed at Wang Yan as if she was presenting a treasure, “That one, with color!”

At the same time, she tilted her head to see his reaction.

Hmm?!

What a big face…

Uh, no, it was too close…

Hey, wait!

When did you come over?!

So close, what were you doing? !

Suddenly, Miss He’s collarbone turned red again.

At the same time, she was a little angry.
