Chapter 929: Chapter 508: The New Model Chapter 929: Chapter 508: The New Model Nobody knew how proactive a host could be,
except for Boss.
Being entwined by another person, Qian Xiaohao subtly felt quite exhilarating.
Although he was a third-generation rich kid, Qian Xiaohao’s life had little to do with a wastrel’s; most of his days passed in a state of being unloved by his father, uncared for by his mother, and having a maid fond of mischief.
On the rare occasion he felt like doing something, the people around him would either mock him or mock him, and what was more hateful was the fact that they turned out to be right.
Now, he had finally enjoyed the treatment a normal third-generation rich kid should have, and the subtle feeling was quite exhilarating.
But soon, he pushed the other person away and said seriously, “What are you thinking, I’m a respectable person.”
“When you’re not being respectable, you’re not a person anymore, right? I get it, big brother! You don’t have to hold back today; whatever you want me to do, I’ll do. Even if you want me to play ‘Quiet Cultivation’ that’s no problem, I’m slick at playing Dragon Girl!”
“Really? I particularly like that game, but my skills aren’t great, my ladder rating is only 2100…”
“No worries, I’m here! My ladder rating is 3100, bringing you up is no issue.”
Just as the two were chatting enthusiastically, a maid nearby interrupted, whispering, “I’m 4200.”
“I know, but you won’t bring me along,” said Qian Xiaohao, “What’s the point of having a high score if you don’t play with me.”
“…I have my own reasons.”
The maid’s account name was Mingtu. If Qian Xiaohao discovered it, he would definitely realize that the person who chatted so animatedly with him every day online was actually himself.
She could imagine what kind of expression the other person would have if they found out her account.
“So it’s you who has always been chatting with me as Mingtu! How much do you like me? You even talk to me without asking for overtime pay while wearing a different persona. If you agree not to charge for overtime in the future, I might consider always chatting with you, okay?”
The thought of possibly letting leverage fall into someone else’s hands terrified the maid; she’d rather not boost someone’s rating than expose herself.
After Qian Xiaohao explained his purpose to Miserable World, Miserable World fell silent, head bowed.
After thinking for a while, he said to Qian Xiaohao, “You mean, my sorrowful broadcasting makes people too upset to watch, so you don’t want me live streaming anymore? Well, my living expenses come from live streaming, so…”
“Twenty thousand in tips per month, direct transfer off the platform. The only demand is to play something wholesome.”
“So, of course I’ll agree! Honestly, I’ve hated this damn miserable channel for a long time! If it weren’t for survival, who would want to perform misery? But our boss probably won’t agree…”
“That so… I have a small live stream company, would you be interested in joining?”
“Eh? Isn’t that a bit sudden? My current company is pretty large.”
However, upon hearing the name of Qian Xiaohao’s live stream company, Miserable World was deeply moved.
Even though Broad Road live stream company was a small company that hadn’t been established for long, it had the backing of the Qian Group, the epitome of financial power.
The most noticeable feature of this group’s subsidiaries was that they weren’t short on money; they handed out generous salaries, and were just as generous when shutting down, giving severance payouts annually–it was the dream place to work for one month and take vacations for three years.
Knowing the person before her was the boss of this live stream company, Miserable World’s eyes gleamed, and she thought she saw her Broad Road.
After confirming his identity, she immediately said obediently, “Hello, boss, you’ve worked hard! I’ll break ties with my previous boss right away, please await my good news.”
The repetitive calling of ‘boss’ felt so good to hear, Qian Xiaohao felt as if he had enjoyed an ice lolly in the summer, feeling refreshed all over.
Sending Miserable World off with a beaming smile, Qian Xiaohao reflected, “What a great employee, is my live streaming platform finally about to launch?”
Looking over the electronic resume sent by the other party, he said satisfied, “Skilled in singing and dancing, sweet and versatile, can play both a cat-eared lolita and a loyal big sister; such talent! Who would have thought I’d come across such an excellent person here? Could it be that heaven is favoring me?”
The maid watched for a while, then changed her outfit and tugged at Qian Xiaohao.
When Qian Xiaohao turned his head, she had already put on cat ear accessories and tilted her head as she meowed, “Meow~”
“What’s the matter with you? Is the gaming pod too hot, got a problem?”
“…Yes.”
Taking off the accessory, the maid sighed and decided to go home and write her will.
It was too socially fatal.
After sorting out Miserable World’s issue, the two exited the game and found Old Sir Cheng Tianhua.
“Old gentleman, the young girl you frequently watch is no longer in misery; why don’t you take another look?”
Cheng Tianhua looked at Qian Xiaohao curiously for a while and then opened his phone. Moments later, he wiped the moisture from the corner of his eyes.
“It’s too miserable…”
“What? Didn’t we already agree?”
Rushing over, Qian Xiaohao discovered that this time it wasn’t Miserable World but another host.
The other’s strategy was pretty similar; they too garnered sympathy by peddling sorrow, turning these emotions into cash to stimulate others’ spending.
And shortly after “Childhood” appeared, the various market segments had been clearly delineated. For example, what Old Sir Cheng Tianhua saw specialized in targeting the elderly, with hosts intentionally presenting a picture of deprivation and malnourishment, reminiscent of the audience’s own childhoods, prompting the elderly to tremble with empathy and send them money.
