Chapter 824: Chapter 345: Happy Birthday to Me, Yu

Not sure if it’s the internet speed or if the guild soldiers have some special skill for grabbing red packets, but their hit rate is ridiculously high.

It’s almost like reaching out and grabbing them; how is this different from robbery?

Over 30,000 accounts were spread out on the Golden Jade Stage, and on average, there’s more than 200 bucks in each account. Even Su Huai found this absurd.

“Pfft!”

Despite holding back, Su Huai couldn’t stop himself from laughing. He typed a message to Yuji: “You really hit the jackpot today. What luck…”

Pei Shuyu glanced at her phone, her mind instantly filled with question marks.

What’s that supposed to mean?

I gave out so many red packets; I’m the one who’s heartbroken here, alright?

She didn’t just think this; she started voicing it as well, trying to convince them live on stream, yelling at Dog Daddy in front of everyone to stop.

“Stop it, Dog Daddy! It’s not that I’m against you giving the brothers some benefits, but there’s really no need to fight with outsiders like this. They’re putting their guild’s entire operating funds on the line and are dead set on stepping on us to climb up. If you keep going, where’s the end? Don’t fall into their trap!”

Once these words came out, the players were instantly divided into two camps.

The narrower Yu Family Army, of course, stood in support, believing that instead of giving so much money to outsiders, it’d be better to spend it on Yuji.

The broader spectrum of onlookers naturally opposed, caring little for who’s right or wrong. As long as there are benefits, they’ll cheer, but if the red packets stopped, they’d curse.

This immediately stirred up massive waves in the comments, with all sorts of foul language flooding in faster than moderators could ban them.

The Yu Family Army, naturally fired up as well, lashed out, escalating the verbal war to full-blown roasting.

This is why Su Huai often said that streaming is the easiest way to fry your nerves. Without some mental resilience, you’d easily collapse under the pressure.

Of course, neither he nor Pei Shuyu cared about such trivial stress.

Turbid Dog Number Three: “It’s fine. If they want to burn their guild’s entire cash flow to challenge my pocket money, I couldn’t be happier.”

Turbid Dog Number Three: “It’s not like I’m the one losing here. Let’s see who runs out first!”

Jin Yucheng heard about Su Huai’s remarks almost instantly. Lurking around to spy on the opponent’s movements is standard practice.

Initially, he felt a bit unsure in his heart, but hearing that, he only laughed harder.

“Both losing? So you do understand what it means to lose, huh? Hahaha!”

After laughing three times, he gave a bold order: “Throw everything at them! Drain his account completely!”

Fu Daiheng, with cruelty written all over his face: “F*ck it! If these dog users aren’t going to spend on our streamer, they’re not likely to spend on Xingyu’s streamer either. If we’re all losing, let’s lose with maximum flair!”

The employees, trembling as they executed each command, pushed the war with Su Huai all the way to 20 million plus.

This intense showdown brought immense joy to Dog Star’s higher-ups.

“Mr. Wang, the entire internet’s players have joined in. The number of new user registrations is skyrocketing–it’s about to hit 800,000!”

“Hahaha!”

So Mr. Wang laughed heartily as well, nearly laughing his head off in excitement.

For a streaming platform, the two most important metrics are obvious: the first is top-ups. Once users top up, no matter who they spend it on, it’s all consumption in the end.

The second is new user registrations. Only by registering can users potentially stay for the long term and eventually spend money because of a specific streamer.

Now that the new registration stats have soared, the recharge volume will naturally climb over time.

Losing someone like Yuji is definitely a blow, but the platform’s foundation remains intact. The big bosses wouldn’t be fazed, alright?

In the office, the platform executives were overjoyed, practically euphoric.

Today, Dog Star truly made a name for itself, already climbing into the top ten on the trending topics list and still rapidly racing towards the top spot.

The financial frenzy and discussion effect weren’t limited to the major streaming platforms; it was breaking out of its niche, sweeping every corner of the internet.

Zhihu: What are your thoughts on the ongoing Dog Star Platform Red Packet War?

“Thanks for the invite. I’m one of YY Platform’s first professional operators, and I happen to be on-site watching live. I’m absolutely exhilarated. First of all, I believe this marks a groundbreaking moment where the new ecosystem of internet livestreaming has finally entered mainstream circles’ attention. Though the play directed by Dog Star Platform and the two big guilds is incredibly clumsy, it indeed has a huge positive impact on the entire industry. My colleagues are celebrating because of this…”

“Seriously? Just some trashy influencer. Why her?!”

“Ladies, am I the only one who thinks she’s ugly as hell?”

“+1. She’s not even as good as Liu Yan.”

“With those obscene twin melons bouncing to sleazy moves, if I were a guy, sure, I’d go at it 8 times a day, but no way I’m spending money. That’s staying with my dear husband Fan Fan.”

RedNote: The power of female empowerment.

“Sisters, I’ve discovered a business opportunity! I’m skilled in Korean dance, my face is pretty, and now all I lack is boobs. Let’s crowdfund 80,000 yuan for 450cc implants, and you all can be my angel investors!”

“Oh my gosh! Livestreaming is so lucrative! Can anyone recommend a reliable guild? I want to give it a go too.”

“Xingyu Guild, the one Yuji belongs to. Their contract terms are excellent, and they’re the most powerful across the network.”

“Noting this down. I’ll give it a try later.”

Longkong Forum: The world’s gone mad. A dancing streamer’s birthday celebration, and tycoons threw nearly 50 million…

“Just your typical milk-drinking extravaganza, standard industry practice. You’re the only one acting like it’s insanity.”

“LZZZ, case closed.”

“Believing in online tycoons is like believing in me. Rich people aren’t fools; they know how to spend their money for maximum value.”

“Oh, so now you represent every rich person out there?”

“Reply to Post 1: Yu’s tax returns were posted in her social media friend circle; she paid tens of millions in taxes. Care to explain?”

“Reply to Post 5: Believe whatever you like. I have no obligation to educate any idiot.”
