3: Chapter 3: Get Rich Overnight!
Jiang Jing watched the comments from the viewers while observing the changes in the PK health bar.
The chat in Xinxin's Livestream room was lively, while the gaming streamer on the other side was a bit stunned.
They hadn't expected that a Livestream room with only a few hundred people would suddenly feature a big spender who dropped ten carnivals in one go. (Many people had come in after being recommended the stream.)
Looking at his own sliver of a health bar, the male streamer still wanted to try and save it.
"Brothers, we've run into a big spender. Everyone who can, please support your little brother here. I hope we don't lose too badly. My health bar is practically gone; it's miserable~"
The other side also knew that anyone who could drop ten carnivals at once was undoubtedly a big spender.
His side consisted of people who loved gaming and would occasionally send a few gifts for support, but even the top spenders on his leaderboard couldn't compare to the other side's lavishness.
"Right, to show my support, I'll send a hot air balloon."
"Not strong enough, but here's a little heart~"
"Hey, my temper is flaring. I can't stand seeing people show off like that. I've decided—I'm leaving the Livestream room!"
"Good grief, you really think you're something..."
"Move aside, I'm the one who needs to step up at this critical moment!"
The big spenders in the Livestream room also took action, sending out a carnival or two.
Following the male streamer's passionate speech, the health bar slowly started to rise.
Jiang Jing watched the other side campaigning for votes, feeling very calm, because—he had a cheat.
But there was no need to crush the other side too hard; this streamer wasn't a bad guy.
So, Jiang Jing waited until the PK was almost over and sent another ten carnivals.
Cashback amount: 360,000.
Not bad. The little streamer's favorability has increased; it's now between 51 and 60.
The other side lost without any controversy. The male streamer accepted reality calmly, cupped his hands, and shouted "Brother CC is awesome" three times.
Xinxin felt a bit unreal right now because happiness had come so suddenly.
She had been streaming for almost a month, and usually, the number of people in her Livestream room wasn't high. Because she didn't do anything suggestive, her traffic was quite low. Moreover, Xinxin hadn't joined any agency, as she never intended to spend a lot of time on streaming; she just streamed when she had time and interest.
Therefore, her monthly income wasn't much, but she was quite satisfied; after all, her original intention was just to earn some extra pocket money.
But now, Xinxin's mindset had changed. Her income from just one night tonight was far higher than what she had earned in the entire previous month.
The big spender had sent 29 carnivals, which converted to 87,000 RMB, and she could take a very substantial cut from that.
And that was just one hour's income!
Xinxin admitted that she was tempted. It is easy to go from frugal to luxurious, but difficult to go from luxurious to frugal.
If she had to go back to earning two or three thousand a month like before, she reckoned she wouldn't be able to accept it.
Xinxin also knew some stories about beautiful streamers and their top-ranked benefactors, and she worried slightly about what would happen if the big spender turned out to be a pot-bellied, balding man.
Although she had these worries, she still sent her wechat to Jiang Jing's backend, just in case the big spender turned out to be tall, rich, and handsome.
That would truly be like Qin Shi Huang touching an electric wire—winning big time.
Xinxin felt she still needed to be sensible; only when the big spender was happy would he continue to send her gifts.
Jiang Jing didn't check his private messages; he was immersed in the joy of the cashback amount arriving.
In his eyes, the little streamer had become a very useful tool; the cashback multiplier was high, and she was pretty.
So, Jiang Jing waved his hand and told Xinxin to continue connecting for PKs.
That evening, Jiang Jing ate his cheap takeout while sending carnivals to the beautiful streamer.
It was quite magical.
Soon, Jiang Jing had the little streamer fight fifteen PK matches. Each PK lasted about five minutes, and Jiang Jing won every single one with overwhelming force.
Xinxin's Livestream room had grown from a few, maybe a dozen people, to over 10,000 online.
These weren't bots; they were all active accounts.
Xinxin leaped to become the top streamer in popularity on Douyin today.
Seeing Jiang Jing's generosity, Douyin kept adding traffic to Xinxin's Livestream room, giving her recommendations. The number of people kept growing, and netizens scrolling through Douyin clicked in out of curiosity, wanting to see which wealthy tycoon was throwing money around.
The special effects for the carnivals in the Livestream room never ceased, and the netizens' comments were all sorts of things.
"Although I'm lurking, I've been carefully recording the number of carnivals Brother CC has sent. Guess how many carnivals Brother CC has sent for the little streamer..."
"Stop talking nonsense up there, just say it! Let us admire the tycoon's lavishness!"
"Exactly! Mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching my phone, and I told her I was worshiping a big spender."
"He's already sent five hundred carnivals!!!"
When the netizens saw this comment, it was as if time had paused for a split second. The comments disappeared for a few seconds, and then...
"Ah!! What!! How can this be!! Why didn't the big spender send them to me!!"
"As expected, we don't understand the world of the wealthy..."
"I have to compare prices at three different places when ordering fast food at night, and if I can't use a coupon, I won't order. He spent 1.5 million in just one hour. The gap between people is truly greater than the gap between humans and dogs..."
"Wuwuwu, I'm so envious of the streamer..."
"Maybe this is just a tycoon's daily pocket money."
"Brother CC, I'm a sweet lolita, I want..."
"Brother CC, don't be so rigid about gender. Sometimes trying something different gives a different experience!"
The netizens' comments went from envy and jealousy to open declarations of love, and then the tone gradually became outrageous. The administrator's eyelids twitched as they watched, and they directly banned a huge wave of people.
Jiang Jing, lying on his small single bed, found the netizens' comments really interesting.
You guys probably don't know that the 'tycoon' you're talking about just ate a cheap takeout meal,
He casually liked the comments of a few funny netizens.
Looking at his account balance, it was already over ten million!
From ten thousand previously to over ten million now, it only took about an hour. This feeling of flying is truly fascinating.
The little streamer Xinxin's cashback multiplier didn't increase after hitting 7x, which meant Xinxin's favorability toward Jiang Jing was around 61–70. Honestly, this was already very high.
She didn't even know what Jiang Jing looked like, and they hadn't said more than a few words, yet just because Jiang Jing had lavishly spent 1.5 million on her, she could reach such high favorability. Jiang Jing personally experienced the benefits of having money!
Throughout these fifteen PK matches, Jiang Jing encountered both male and female streamers. Some looked very pretty, but the system didn't give any prompts, meaning they didn't meet the system's consumption requirements—their attractiveness didn't reach 80 or above.
Jiang Jing was quite surprised at the time, as one or two looked even prettier than Xinxin. But as it turned out, it was either filters or technology; they could fool ordinary people but not the system.
They were all passed over.
Jiang Jing felt it was about time, so he typed to Xinxin: "Let's stop the PKs here for today. I'm leaving."
Upon seeing Jiang Jing's words, Xinxin immediately nodded her head and said very obediently: "Okay, Brother CC, go ahead and do what you need to do. I'm going to end the stream too. Thank you so much for everything you've done for Xinxin today. Remember to check your private messages, okay? Bye-bye!"
