Are local foreigners not considered foreigners?

Although there were few types of rewards this time, he was very satisfied.

“System, are there no more character rewards?”

While these rewards were satisfying, he still preferred having more character rewards by comparison; after all, those were people with one hundred percent loyalty to him.

One hundred percent loyalty—that wasn't something money could buy. If that goal of his really came to fruition in the future, he would certainly need a significant number of people.

When it came to managing a city, he didn't want to look for outsiders. When the time came, he would use only the talents rewarded by the system. Then, it would be impossible for enemies to disintegrate them from within.

That would give him peace of mind. To put it extremely, even if he eventually died of old age, the foundation he left behind would be enough for the Wang Family to stand tall on Blue Star for centuries.

Of course, if his descendants turned out to be idiots, that would be a different story.

However, it was still too early to think about such things, especially since he didn't know what rewards the system would have later on.

Tossing his worries to the back of his mind, he refocused his gaze on the livestream room.

However, the style of the comments in the livestream room had already taken a sudden turn.

【Fuck you, who are you foreigners cursing at? You're saying Brother Jun is pretending to be a good person? Damn it, if you have the guts, why don't you tip a million us dollars to pretend to be a good person too?】

【Exactly, are you so hungry your cerebellum has shriveled? You idiots actually dare to say Brother Jun is acting like a big shot. You're making me laugh so hard I've become your father.】

【holy crap, can you be more civilized when you post comments? You're full of foul language. Was Big Brother Tom wrong? Tipping a million us dollars just to show off here, and even hiring so many paid shills to praise himself—you Easterners really love to brag.】

【Hey, you're right. I went over there, and after those people had a few drinks, they started bragging. This kind of behavior is normal; they're really just a bunch of hicks.】

【shit, please, this is TikTok. You guys are the foreigners here.】

【Heh, listen to that. Are local foreigners not foreigners anymore?】

Seeing this, Wang Shaojun showed a look of confusion. The comments were fine just a moment ago; why were they fighting now?

He scrolled down through the comments and soon understood what was happening. It turned out that all of this had been instigated by that man named Tom.

The reason was simple: why is it that when someone else tips you and says a few nice things while pretending to be a good person, you can't wait to cling to them, but you're so cold and aloof toward me?

Tom: 【Sigh, I misjudged her. I thought the streamer was pure, but now it seems she's just a hypocritical bitch. My feelings were wasted after all. Is it really so hard for me, Tom, to find true love?】

As soon as he posted that comment, a large number of people began to support him frantically.

【Don't be sad, Brother Tom. This kind of hypocritical bitch isn't worth being loved.】

【Exactly, and she says it's not for the money. She talks a good game, but it's just because the money wasn't enough. What is she pretending for? Unfollowed, disgusting!】

【Tom is a Level 2 tipping streamer. He's never given big gifts to other streamers before, but he did for this one. This shows it was true love, but unfortunately, it was misplaced. Truly, sincere feelings are always hurt by the heartless. The streamer has disappointed us too much.】

【Aish, she looks pink on the outside but she's already black inside. Now she's pretending to be pure to rake in money. Disgusting, unfollowing and blocking!】

Zhang Yaolin's face turned dark as she looked at these unsightly comments.

But she didn't argue back, because she knew this was all stirred up by that man named Tom. She naturally understood the reason.

The more she explained, the more it would only make people feel like she was trying to cover things up.

The number of people in the livestream room directly plummeted below two hundred thousand, and in just this short time, she had lost ten thousand followers.

Seeing this, a look of pleasure couldn't help but appear on Tom's face.

This was the internet, after all. Those brainless fans wouldn't care about the truth; they just followed whatever others said and blindly hopped on the bandwagon.

What they wanted was to watch the chaos unfold. Even if they eventually found out it was their fault, they would have enough reasons to say it was 'love.'

Because they loved enough, they were willing to be used.

Zhang Yaolin didn't feel heartbroken. She was only a streamer to earn some pocket money anyway, and today's share of the gifts was enough to cover her expenses for several years.

If she lost followers, so be it. She wasn't going to cry and beg them not to leave.

The fans still watching in the livestream room were utterly disappointed when they saw she had no intention of asking them to stay.

With other streamers, if this situation occurred, the person would definitely be crying and begging them not to go.

【Streamer, you've disappointed us. I'm leaving.】

【I'm leaving too. I'm so sad; you didn't even try to keep me. Whatever, I've been here, and I've loved you. That's enough.】

【The streamer has changed. You're not the angel you used to be. So disappointed. Unfollowing. Don't forget, if anyone asks, I've been here and I've loved you!】

If Wang Shaojun hadn't known Zhang Yaolin's identity, he really would have thought it was her fault. After all, if you want to make a living this way, you can't act superior in front of your fans.

You have to mingle with them. Even if they make you feel disgusted, you have to smile and show concern for them.

It's like a 'licking dog' (simp). You break his leg and tell him to get lost, but the next day, you only need to act cute and show him a little concern.

Then he'll come running back to your side, asking if you've eaten and if your hand hurts from when you broke his leg yesterday.

Before long, the number of people in the livestream room dropped to one hundred and twenty thousand. Wang Shaojun's fans felt incredibly bad for her upon seeing this.

【Holy shit, I could imagine the numbers dropping, but for it to drop like this is really surprising. The streamer is a bit pitiful.】

【It's obvious that Tom couldn't get what he wanted, so he turned his love into hate and wanted to smear the streamer. I didn't expect the streamer's fans to be such 'geniuses' who know to lock their brains in a bank vault.】

【Huh? Then it's over. Given the current situation, they've definitely forgotten the vault's password.】

【You guys are too mean, calling people brainless in such a roundabout way.】

【Don't be afraid, streamer. It's survival of the fittest. You still have us. I'll have my grandpa jump the Great Firewall right now to follow you.】

【That's right, my dad likes this type too. I'll tip you his retirement pension later.】

These comments immediately made Zhang Yaolin laugh. She covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "It's okay, I don't care about the follower count. But you guys have such an interesting way of talking. Thank you for following me; I'm very happy chatting with you all."

This smile made everyone lose their composure.

【Hehe, the streamer smiled at me. She must like me.】

【666】

【Ahhhh! The streamer looks so good when she smiles. I've decided: White-faced Steamed Bun is my first wife, and you, streamer, are my second wife.】

【Have you guys noticed? The streamer looks just as good as White-faced Steamed Bun when she smiles. But I still think White-faced Steamed Bun is slightly better. Brother Jun, please make sure to sign her to Heavenly Palace Media.】

Wang Shaojun didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this. Although she wasn't well-liked at home, she was still the youngest daughter of the Samhan Group's Chairman.

However, he could indeed make a move from another angle.
