124: Annual Finals (Part 1) Part 3
“Welcome everyone to Xiao Xin’s live stream! The annual event is ending tonight, and I can finally slack off and just stream for the required hours!”
The 24-day annual event was set to conclude tonight.
Xiao Xin hadn't left early in a very, very, very long time.
Not only that, she often worked overtime to ease some of the pressure on Li Youqian.
["You're doing well, you can even say that in the live stream now."]
["If any other streamer said that, they'd have been cursed at."]
["Xiao Xin, you can't slack off! If you slack off, my happy home will be gone!"]
["Exactly, exactly! If you slack off, are you worthy of us?"]
["Other streamers broadcast 12 hours a day, I believe you can too!"]
["(75) I'm Really Rich has entered the live stream."]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: '12 hours?? Even a donkey on a production team couldn't work like that!'"]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'A staunch supporter of the 997 system??'"]
"Oh, welcome, Rich Brother!"
"Exactly, exactly, you capitalists don't know how to feel bad for me, but Rich Brother is good."
Xiao Xin’s eyes narrowed into crescent moons when she saw Li Youqian enter.
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'If you ask me, 12 hours is still too cruel, let's change it to 16 hours.'"]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'Except for sleeping and going to the bathroom, Xiao Xin should be live streaming for everyone.'"]
["Agreed!"]
["I think I understand why President Qian is so rich..."]
["Even the Jews would feel inferior!"]
["You underestimate the Jews. Back then, they dared to sell a single loaf of bread for 500,000 marks."]
["What's 500,000? In the end, they dared to sell one for 14 billion."]
["In that war, only the Jews were not worthy of pity."]
"Alright, alright, let's not discuss such sensitive topics in our live stream."
The downside of having more people in the live stream was evident here: sensitive topics and discord would appear unknowingly.
After all, netizens don't care if the streamer's account gets banned; they only care about having fun chatting.
[(75) I'm Really Rich gifted the streamer - Xiao Xin holy dragon descends * 1 * 2 * 3 ... * 10000! (One billion Douyin coins)]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'Alright, this score should be stable. I'm going to check other places.'"]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'If anything changes, remember to tell me.'"]
Ever since those five celebrities were sanctioned, Xiao Xin had returned to a dominant lead.
To be safe and prevent others from stealing the lead, Li Youqian threw another 100 million.
["My goodness, if someone can steal this, I'll live stream eating dog food!"]
["Brother upstairs, you're rewarding yourself!"]
["If this score can be stolen, I'll live stream riding a five-speed electric fan!"]
["You guys are ruthless."]
["Even top streamers would go bankrupt trying to get this score!"]
The championship was already secured, and the fans in the live stream relaxed, beginning to brag wildly.
["President Qian, save him, save him!"]
["The monkey can't hold on, can President Qian help?"]
["I'm shocked, the other side is too strong."]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'What's happening? Is there a monkey in Lu Province that can't be beaten??'"]
If you were talking about Magic City or Capital City, the first place in the regional competition might be debatable.
But in Lu Province, the monkey was the absolute ceiling!
Was there someone he couldn't beat?
["President Qian, go see for yourself."]
["The other side is too fierce!"]
["Sigh, if there weren't no other way, we definitely wouldn't have come to President Qian for help."]
With curiosity, Li Youqian clicked into Asahi Baby's live stream.
He wanted to see which great master had appeared in Lu Province.
...
Time rewound to ten minutes ago.
"Oh my god, where did this Lingyin come from?"
"How come I've never heard of this person?"
"Company, quickly top up, we absolutely cannot lose this first place."
Asahi Baby specifically checked, and this Lingyin only had 430,000 followers.
In the daytime session, 50 advanced to 30, and she ranked 27th. Yet, she was so strong in the night session!
["(75) Fan Ye: 'Damn, the system crashed, no large-amount top-ups allowed!'"]
["(73) Integrity for Good: 'Sigh, who said it wasn't? We thought it would be an easy win, so we didn't top up much. Who would have thought a dark horse would appear.'"]
["(75) But She Doesn't Love Me: 'If it really doesn't work, call the backpack.'"]
["(75) Skywalker: 'I asked, the backpack doesn't have any tickets left either. We fought too hard today.'"]
["(75) Kita Baobao (Gaze Version): 'Then what do we do? We can't just give up, can we?'"]
["(75) Zamasu: 'Which big brother on Douyin still has tickets now?'"]
["That must be the money printer - President Qian!"]
["President Qian's Douyin coins are like free money, he can't spend them all!"]
["(75) Fan Ye: 'Can anyone contact President Qian? See if we can buy some tickets.'"]
["(75) Kita Baobao (Gaze Version): 'I have him as a friend, but he might not be online.'"]
["He's online, he's online! President Qian is in Xiao Xin's live stream."]
["Someone's already gone to get reinforcements!"]
["Someone's already gone, sister-in-law doesn't need to shout."]
"I'm going to monkey you, why did you go disturb President Qian?"
"President Qian must be very busy, and Xiao Xin's place also needs defending. We shouldn't disturb him at a time like this."
A wealthy patron comes when he wants to; he wouldn't call him if he didn't.
["(75) I'm Really Rich has entered the live stream."]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'Oh, this outfit today looks better than the maid outfit from back then!'"]
["Cough, cough, it's alright, barely enough to get excited."]
["Huh?? No, buddy, you..."]
["Good heavens, everything can be an excitement trigger??"]
["You can even get excited by this, you are truly a brave warrior!"]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'I heard Bao Ge got beaten up, what's the deal?'"]
Li Youqian clicked on the Lu Province rankings, and Asahi Baby had indeed become second place.
The first place was named Lingyin, at first glance, he even thought it was the one from Phoenix Legend.
["(75) Fan Ye: 'President Qian, buy some tickets, price is not an issue.'"]
["(75) Kita Baobao (Gaze Version): 'President Qian, do you still have many tickets? Can we buy 20 million worth?'"]
["(75) Zamasu: '+1+1.'"]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'What's happening? Buy tickets?'"]
You can just top up directly, why buy?
["(75) Fan Ye: 'The system crashed, no large-amount top-ups allowed, otherwise we wouldn't have needed to call you.'"]
["(73) Integrity for Good: 'Sigh, we were careless, didn't prepare tickets.'"]
["(75) Kita Baobao (Gaze Version): 'Didn't expect the other side to put up so much.'"]
So the system crashed.
Li Youqian looked at Lingyin's ticket count on the other side, currently surpassing Asahi Baby by 8 million RMB.
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'No need to buy.'"]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'I'll cover the rest.'"]
[(75) I'm Really Rich gifted the streamer - Asahi Baby holy dragon descends * 1 * 2 * 3 ... * 6786! (678,600,000 Douyin coins)]
[(75) I'm Really Rich gifted the streamer - Asahi Baby Angel's Wings (2888 Douyin coins)]
[(75) I'm Really Rich gifted the streamer - Asahi Baby Little Heart * 1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5 (5 Douyin coins)]
["(75) I'm Really Rich: 'To make it a round number.'"]
