Chapter 930: Chapter 508: New Model_2 Chapter 930: Chapter 508: New Model_2 Even afraid that the elderly wouldn’t know how to use smartphones, they considerately included a tutorial on sending money, turning a perfectly good game into a tool for raking in cash.
Although the action wasn’t illegal, it was disgusting to watch.
Seeing that Old Mr. Cheng was about to send money again, Qian Xiaohao quickly found the maid and then shouted at her, who was practicing meow sounds in front of the dressing mirror, “Let’s go, someone else needs our help. Can you stop cosplaying already?”
“Just wait a moment, I’ll go slit my wrists and be right with you.”
“By that time, the person will have died. How can we help then?”
“You could go call a spirit with an Ouija board.”
“Stop the crap and come with me!”
Immediately grabbing the maid, Qian Xiaohao entered the game and then rushed to another broadcaster’s location in an airplane.
After they got off the plane, he said to the maid, “Just like before, we take the person away, take them to a hidden corner for some carrot and stick, and then there should be no problems.”
The maid interrupted Qian Xiaohao, “I need to say something. It’s not just about one broadcaster, it’s become an industry chain. And if you poach this broadcaster, someone else will quickly fill the vacant spot, nothing fundamentally changes.”
“…You make a good point, plan suspended. Let’s bring up Miserable World to discuss this issue.”
“That was fast, considering her as one of us already,” the maid sighed.
“Why wouldn’t she be one of us? She’s my employee now, and employees are definitely like family.”
“Are you going to throw a wedding and make it official, so she really becomes one of us?”
“Sister, you’re especially aggressive with the attacks today.”
“It’s not me that’s wrong, it’s the entire world.”
“Don’t elevate it to that level all of a sudden. Are you some kind of cliche villain that’s popped out of nowhere?”
Although the maid wasn’t too enthusiastic, Miserable World was still invited to join them.
Miserable World became vigilant when she learned that Qian Xiaohao had a new target.
However, her point of vigilance differed from the maid’s. She was worried that adding one more person would increase the risk for the live streaming company and the speed of its potential downfall, halving her comfortable monthly income of twenty thousand.
And judging from Qian Xiaohao’s personality, one wouldn’t be enough. There would be more and more mistresses, reducing her days of easy living.
After thinking it through, her brain worked faster than ever, quickly analyzing the pros and cons and making a decision that was most beneficial for herself.
“Boss, this isn’t going to work,” Miserable World said earnestly.
“Oh? My dear counselor, do you have any brilliant suggestions?”
“The current situation is such that selling misery will become a trend in the game ‘Childhood’ for a while, and big data will keep directing traffic here according to the audience’s preferences, ensuring Old Mr. Cheng can always access such content.”
“As expected of a professional, your expertise really shows. Go on.”
Encouraged by the boss, Miserable World continued, “It’s not easy to reverse this trend, but there is a chance. If we can pull off something big, then there’s a possibility of turning it all around.”
The maid’s interest was piqued, “What kind of big event?”
“A big event must meet several criteria: be topical, replicable, and profitable. If these conditions are met, video accounts will start to imitate and create a trend that’ll overtake the existing one. In fact, I’ve always thought making ‘Childhood’ into an interactive video format would be great. But our former boss… never listened to me.”
“Detail it for us!”
“It’s actually quite simple. I had this idea while watching videos by Xiemen Waidao and Old Fox. Xiemen Waidao is actually venting frustration, but his behavior could earn more if it were commercially packaged. There are plenty of viewers who dislike the sob stories, but they are silent. They need an outlet to vent.”
Miserable World began to lay out her plan in detail, causing both the maid and Qian Xiaohao to nod in agreement, feeling like they really struck gold.
After learning all about Miserable World’s plan, Qian Xiaohao patted her shoulder contentedly and said, “Nice, you take charge of this project. Whatever you need, just let me know, and I’ll take care of it all!”
“That, I’m short of about one million in funds, could that work?”
Miserable World looked at Qian Xiaohao anxiously, unsure if the other person would agree.
They had known each other for less than a day, and trust between them hadn’t been established yet; asking for over a million all of a sudden really was a bit too presumptuous.
Qian Xiaohao also showed a troubled expression and after half a minute, he asked, puzzled, “Is that amount of money enough? I feel like ten million would be sufficient, right?”
Miserable World was stunned for a moment, then muttered to herself, “Damn rich people.”
“My young master is just like that.” The maid sighed helplessly, “He has no concept of money. You could even say a billion, and he would think you are spending it wisely, then help you raise the funds. And don’t worry about him giving misguided directions, he doesn’t understand anything, just do your thing.”
“What if it fails?”
“He’s used to it, it doesn’t bother him.”
Hearing this, Miserable World realized she really had jumped into the right place.
And when she truly saw the money sent by the other party, Miserable World knew that if things went as expected, she might have to stay here in her next life.
Now with capital, Miserable World immediately got ready to spring into action, licking her lips as she started mobilizing. In a week’s time, she had the paid posters in place, selected her target, made all the arrangements, and then it was time for the show to begin.
She chose the right moment and sent Qian Xiaohao a message: “Boss, we’re ready, let’s start!”
When Qian Xiaohao received the message, he was accompanying Cheng Tianhua in watching a live stream.
The streamer this time had quite a bit of talent, even self-taught in the model play genre, singing with a clear voice and enunciating words distinctively, which moved Old Mr. Cheng to tears time and again.
After seeing the message that the plan had started, Qian Xiaohao said, “Old Mr. Cheng, let’s not just watch the same one, let’s check out others.”
“I only like this one, I want to watch this.”
“Weren’t you very fond of Miserable World before? The little girl has started a new stream, take a look.”
“All right, let’s see.”
Upon entering Miserable World’s live stream, Cheng Tianhua immediately began to cry upon seeing her getup.
“The girl is still so miserable, her clothes are so torn, it reminds me of my sister.”
Miserable World’s live stream had been carefully designed, it indeed looked very pitiful.
The effects of money were fully demonstrated here, as lots of professionals had researched and recreated the scene, making it very relatable to the elderly’s childhood experiences.
Miserable World herself looked pallid and frail, her pitiful appearance easily evoked sympathy in the audience, prompting them to want to reward her even before she had spoken.
However, surprisingly, she did not open the tipping feature, but instead began her small theater performance.
The content of the small theater performance had been meticulously designed; the wicked Landlady brutally exploited and oppressed Miserable World, filling the space with conflict and struggle, and hooking the elderly audience’s sympathy.
And just as everyone’s sympathy reached a climax, the option to give tips finally appeared.
But unlike the usual tipping options, this time there were quite a few different things added.
[Tip one yuan: Buy the child a new piece of clothing. Current Progress: (0/10000)]
[Tip one yuan: Give the child something warm to eat. Current Progress: (0/10000)]
[Tip one yuan: Allow the child to…]
Seeing these options, the chat in the live stream boiled over.
[The child is too pitiful, how do I send money?]
[Yeah, I want to help too!]
