Chapter 12 Are you trying to brush off a beggar?
Yang Maoyiâs live-streaming account was called âNo Fox Spirits Anymore,â but this girl had the kind of bewitching and alluring fox spirit charm.
Looking at Yang Maoyi on the screen, An Liang could be certain that this girl hadnât applied any beauty filters, because just over an hour ago, he had seen her in person.
[Does the streamer know how to sing?] An Liang casually sent a message.
âSorry, Brother Liang Ren Wei Gui, Iâm tone-deaf and canât sing,â Yang Maoyi responded.
[What about dancing?] An Liang asked again.
Yang Maoyi responded, âIf doing the morning exercises counts as dancing, then I can dance.â
This time, An Liang was completely stunned!
Morning exercises are considered dancing?
Thatâs truly impressive!
âIs Brother Liang Ren Wei Gui still here?â Yang Maoyi asked voluntarily since An Liang hadnât sent any messages for over a minute.
An Liang responded, [Is there something wrong?].
âBrother Liang Ren Wei Gui, can you get a fan card? Itâs only one yuan, and with it, you can get the streamerâs fan badge and access the VIP section,â Yang Maoyi explained.
An Liang couldnât help but laugh.
A stunning girl like Yang Maoyi, who scores a 93 in looks, is asking for just one yuan? Thatâs a bit too humble, isnât it?
Honestly, if it were a rainy day and a one-yuan coin fell into the muddy water, how many people would bother picking it up?
[Sorry, no money, not getting it, just freeloading!] An Liang replied.
In reality, An Liangâs Hu Chi account had one million Hu Chi coins, equivalent to one million yuan. When Yang Maoyi saw An Liangâs response, she kept her composure on the surface but couldnât help feeling a little helpless inside.
When she first entered the live streaming industry, she thought her enchanting looks would ensure her success, but once she started streaming, she realized it wasnât that simple.
To become a big streamer, one either needed the resources of a guild or the support of a wealthy big brother. But were guild resources easy to get?
Of course not!
To access guild resources, they not only need to sign stricter contracts, but they also had to accept certain conditions set by the guild higher-ups. What was even worse was that the resources provided by the guild often needed to be paid back with interest.
As for the support of big brothers?
In the live-streaming industry, eight out of ten âbig brothersâ were from guild operations, and the remaining real big brothers usually had their own fixed supporters. Even when a real big brother occasionally supported them, they often immediately made various demands.
As for those big brothers who supported them without any conditions, spending tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands⊠well, that was a lottery-level chance. Otherwise, it was just wishful thinking.
[Maybe Iâm really not cut out for live streaming?] Yang Maoyi sighed inwardly.
She just had the appearance and charm of a fox spirit, and her streamer name, âNo Fox Spirits Anymore,â really expressed what she was feeling inside.
At 10:00 PM, the first round of the guild battle began. Yang Maoyi glanced at the eight people in the VIP section, two of whom were zombie fans supported by the guild. Even with the basic accounts included, the total number of viewers was probably no more than twenty. This situation made Yang Maoyi feel downcast.
[If we lose this round of the guild battle, Iâll just quit!]
Yang Maoyi made a quiet decision in her heart. Without the guildâs base salary, and with only about five thousand yuan in monthly revenue, her pre-tax income was only around 1,500 yuan. But she streamed for over four hours every dayâwhat was the point of all this?
âHello, Miss, Iâm Xiao Yuâer from the Feng Hua Xue Yue Guild. Itâs nice to be in a voice call with you. Miss, youâre so beautiful,â Xiao Yuâer from the Feng Hua Xue Yue Guild greeted first.
Yang Maoyi quickly gathered herself and replied, âHello, Miss, Iâm No Fox Spirits Anymore from the Qing Cheng Guild. Youâre beautiful too, and itâs nice to be in a voice call with you.â
In Xiao Yuâerâs live stream, the number of people in the VIP section had exceeded one hundred, and the weekly rankingâs top person had spent over 5,600 yuan. The situation here was obviously better than Yang Maoyiâs.
Xiao Yuâer looked at Yang Maoyiâs live stream with her secondary account and then asked, âMiss, should we perform some talents, or just start directly?â
After finishing this, Xiao Yuâer checked Yang Maoyiâs stream, seeing her poor weekly ranking and the almost empty VIP section with fewer than ten people. Xiao Yuâerâs mood improved. This first round was basically a free win!
In fact, it was really heading in the direction of a free win. Yang Maoyi responded, âSorry, Miss, I donât have any talents. I canât sing, I canât dance, I canât even tell jokes. So, should we just start?â
Xiao Yuâer was momentarily stunned by Yang Maoyiâs response. She had some concerns before, thinking that Yang Maoyiâs beauty might attract some of her big brothersâ attention, but now, the crisis was averted!
When the gift PK started, Xiao Yuâerâs gift bar immediately surged forward, pressing Yang Maoyiâs gift PK bar to the extreme, shrinking to just one centimeter.
A gift PK lasts for ten minutes. By the eighth minute, Yang Maoyi had received around twenty yuan worth of gifts, while Xiao Yuâerâs gifts had exceeded 500 yuan.
At that moment, a Duke-level account entered Yang Maoyiâs live stream, and this accountâs name revealed their identityâBĂ tiÄnăDuai Xiao Yuâeră.
An Liang specifically went to check Xiao Yuâerâs stream. This was the top spender in their weekly ranking, with over 5,600 yuan spent.
[This round is conceded, thank you for the support, Miss,] BĂ tiÄnăDuai Xiao Yuâeră sent a message, then tipped a 100 yuan plane, but immediately went to Xiao Yuâerâs stream to tip a 1,000 yuan rocket.
An Liang frowned slightly as he observed this kind of âbrushing off a beggarâ behavior. After all, his Hu Chi account had one million Hu Chi coins, which were worth a million yuan!
