Chapter 456: Everything about jade will only harm you.

The female assistant felt Cindy was very pitiful.

But Wei Rusi knew Zheng Qian too well; this girl was definitely about to get lucky. That's right, from now on, it was Zheng Qian's moment to show off. However... being able to help others was also a good thing.

Zheng Qian had just entered her profile page, and his eyes immediately lit up.

Hmm, very pretty.

The girl looked like she came from a respectable family; there were no revealing selfies, and most of her posts were about sharing a beautiful life. She always wore a bright, sunny smile on her face, making it clear she was an extremely confident and optimistic girl.

"They are just YouTubers, but the live streaming software is called Sun. It's a short-video platform benchmarking the overseas version of ByteDance. As far as I know, it isn't being operated well, but it is still the largest live streaming platform in this country. It has already started its seventh round of financing. If they still can't hit the expected numbers, I'm afraid they'll face a devastating blow this time."

Lindsay was truly Wei Rusi's right-hand assistant, being so familiar even with local internet companies in Oman. Working with professionals was always very reassuring.

"Sorry everyone... My spot was just taken. They are big streamers, and there are a lot of them, so I was forced out. I was planning to take everyone to see a beach performance later. I'm really sorry..."

Cindy's fans included Chinese people and foreigners. So, she switched between Chinese and English, and the phrasing was relatively simple, which Zheng Qian could roughly understand.

"You just said this company called Sun is short on money, right?" Zheng Qian said, feigning deep thought. It was just strange, why would a perfectly good company be named that? Wasn't it like being someone's son?

Everyone: ???

Wei Rusi blushed and tugged at Zheng Qian. "Don't say it so loudly! And you pronounced it wrong. 'Son' means son, 'Sun' is the sun! Their company is called Sun ByteDance, seriously..."

Zheng Qian's old face turned red too. Even though his skin was quite thick by now, he still couldn't handle it.

"Hmm... Ahem... I was actually just joking with you all, hahaha! How about this, Lindsay, I'll give you a chance to strive for your little goal again. I'll give you half an hour to get the Chairman of Sun's board of directors to sit in front of me. Just tell them that someone has decided to invest in their company."

Lindsay was stunned and glanced hesitantly at Wei Rusi. Seeing the latter give an almost imperceptible nod, she quickly stood up with her phone. This... they were going to invest just like that? Without looking at any risk reports? Was he an angel investor?

While they were waiting, another situation arose in Cindy's live stream.

"They keep requesting a PK with me..."

"Oh my god, I'm so scared. Why are they still requesting it even after I rejected it..."

Watching this flustered girl, Zheng Qian hesitated for a moment, then edited and sent a message: "Accept the live stream. I will help you win this battle. We people of Jiuzhou have been bullied by outsiders for many years, but we shouldn't let them be arrogant anymore."

Saying this, he casually sent a rocket. 99 USD!

Seeing the gorgeous effect appear in the live stream, Cindy immediately got excited. Hesitating for a moment, perhaps because Zheng Qian's words had an effect, she clicked on the PK invitation.

"Hahaha! OMG! Bitch %￥￥#￥%%..." The person on the other side quickly blurted out a bunch of foreign language.

Even though Zheng Qian's English level was worrying, he could still understand some of it. Knowing they were highly insulting terms, he became angry out of shame and immediately topped up 100,000 USD.

"Zheng Qian, I need to remind you of something." Just then, Wei Rusi said to him wittily, "Oman is a hereditary monarchy, and the Sultan is the supreme head of state. Hereditary system... you understand, right? I just clicked into the profile of that live stream on the other side and discovered they have been stationed here for a long time, and the videos they post are basically all related to the Sultan's eldest son, singing his praises."

"Not only that, I just checked, and many self-media outlets and even official media are making moves. He doesn't seem very calm. Think about where we are right now, and weigh for yourself what you should do."

Zheng Qian narrowed his eyes; he seemed to have thought of something.

The regional leader of Sohar, where they were currently located, was the second son of the current Sultan, Qasim bin Said.

He had heard Wei Rusi mention this before coming here. Qasim's own health didn't seem very good right now. Although he had originally designated the eldest son as the heir to the throne, he had made some mistakes before, which made the result somewhat murky. The second son was ambitious and very likely to make some moves.

What Wei Rusi just said was simple: she hoped Zheng Qian could show off, but not get involved in the struggle for the throne. Whether in ancient or modern times, at home or abroad, this was a very sensitive issue.

Zheng Qian shrugged; he certainly had his own judgment. Through dealing with that group of people in Shanghu, his perspective had broadened significantly. He had thought too simply before; just engaging in some traditional industries was too slow to make money. It was also the train of thought Xu Huateng brought him: internet and other emerging industries were the truly lucrative sectors.

Although his purchase of this live streaming platform was an impulsive decision, it was also laying the groundwork for his domestic industries. Now, Jiuzhou had passed the "War of the Hundred Regiments" for live streaming platforms, and ultimately, only two companies dominated. Entering the market strongly at this time would allow him to sweep and consolidate, achieve industry monopoly, and pick the ready-made fruits.

As for whether it would cause resentment from Qasim's eldest son... Zheng Qian had other plans.

To return to the topic, the 1-minute live stream PK began. Cindy was slightly shy and didn't know how to call on everyone to send gifts. On the contrary, those fans were very supportive, but they were all too poor, and the gifts they sent were usually less than 10 USD at most.

On the other hand, the opponent was aggressive, as if they had a big spender backing them, throwing in hundreds of dollars at a time. Zheng Qian sneered in his heart. Compared to those "Emperors" on our certain live streaming platform, this was far inferior.

He backhanded a volley of 100 rockets to test the waters.

"I... holy crap... we overtook them?"

"Did a big spender come to our side?"

"Th-th-this... is this a 'Little Hater'? Do they have 'Little Haters' abroad too?"

"Don't talk nonsense! Look, his name has 'jio' in it; what if he just likes 'feet'?"

"Obsessing over everything will only harm you!"

Cindy was even more exhilarated and shouted excitedly: "Thank you, Brother Foot, for the 100 rockets!"

Hmm... The username Zheng Qian had temporarily come up with was [Crazy Exposing Foot Base]. He certainly wouldn't admit to having any thoughts about brothers; it was just a name that popped into his head at that moment.

This was Zheng Qian's first time acting as a big spender in a live stream. But, could you please not call me Brother Foot?
