676 Why Are You All Competing With Ji Qingyan!
The person who spoke was called Liu Siyuan.
She wore baggy canvas pants, a red sweater, and a pair of black-framed glasses as she sat on a sofa not far away.
She held the iPad in her hand and kept staring at it.
“How is that possible? Old Meng just surpassed the second-place contestant by more than four million, but someone else actually surpassed him?” Ma Weian said.
“I’m also puzzled,” Liu Siyuan said. “The person who overtook Old Meng is someone called Brother Mask. I’ll go and see what’s going on first.”
After saying that, Liu Siyuan played on her iPad for a while and said,
“F*ck, this guy found someone to turn over the rankings. The top three tippers are all females. A total of 24 super rockets points were given to him. Including the tips from others, the total amount exceeds 50,000 yuan.”
“This kid is very ambitious,” Ma Weian said. “From the looks of it, he seems to be fighting for the title of the Newcomer King.”
“I still have some impression of this person. When his live stream started yesterday, it seemed to have caused quite a stir.” Han Shuang said.
“I heard that he went to Jiuzhou Pavilion and even brought an audience to see a limited edition Bugatti La Voiture Noire. He can be considered to have made a name for himself.”
“The La Voiture Noire?” Ma Weian and the others were surprised.
“That limited edition Bugatti La Voiture Noire worth 126 million?”
“I think that’s the car,” Han Shuang said.
“Looks like this kid came prepared,” Ma Weian said.
“He probably prepared it in advance. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made such a high-quality live stream.”
“Then what should we do now? If we don’t think of a solution, Old Meng’s Newcomer King title will be snatched away by someone else,” Liu Siyuan said.
“That’s easy. Just spend money,” Ma Weian said.
“They spent about 50,000 on the other side, right?”
“Thereabouts.”
“In that case, I’ll use my alternate account to refresh the rankings for Old Meng now, so his points will naturally rise.”
“Boss, there’s no need to farm so many points. Ten super rockets will do. I’m going to upgrade weapons to +18 later. This will attract a large number of viewers and I will quickly regain popularity,” Meng Jinyang said.
“Alright, I’ll help you farm some points first and see how the situation is. If it doesn’t work, we’ll just continue farming.”
Meng Jinyang lit a cigarette and smiled.
“This person really overestimates himself. He actually wants to compete with me for the title of Newcomer King. He should take a look at who I, Meng Jinyang, am.”
“What Old Meng said makes sense. We don’t have to worry too much. An outdoor streamer like him usually doesn’t have any potential. He definitely won’t be able to defeat someone like Old Meng who streams every day. We don’t have to worry too much.”
“I’m not worried about that. It’s mainly because the Newcomer King’s event will end tomorrow,” Ma Weian said.
“Although the event isn’t too big, the platform will reward the winner a certain amount of resources in the later stages. It’s still relatively useful.”
“Moreover, I’ve already communicated with the officials. After winning the title of Newcomer King, they’ll continue to pour resources into him for the later stages. With these resources, we can strive to make Old Meng the top streamer for DNF. Therefore, we can’t afford to screw up. We have to be careful.”
“I’ll go take a look at that kid’s live stream. Let me get a feel for how he is approaching this,” Liu Siyuan said.
“Let’s do it now.”
…
In Jiuzhou Pavilion, Lin Yi was still chatting with the viewers. The scene was relaxed and comfortable.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoyu sent him a WeChat message.
“Brother Lin, that DNF streamer seems to be on your tail. He’s now in first place again.”
“No way, he’s actually working so hard? This is just a small event. Is there a need to do this?”
“I think he might have the support of a guild behind him. He must have many long-term plans surrounding him, so he probably has to secure this spot. Brother Lin, you can’t lose.”
“Don’t worry, let’s take it slow. Isn’t tomorrow the last day?”
“Then we have to hold on tight. This kind of thing changes rapidly. If we’re not careful, we can easily fail.” Zhang Xiaoyu said anxiously.
“I’ll go to the live stream room to set the pace and see if I can pull up your popularity.”
With that said, Zhang Xiaoyu returned to the live stream and said,
“Our first place has been snatched away. Everyone, support us. As long as we get first place, Brother Mask will bring everyone to see the fighter jet.”
The live stream’s enthusiasm was ignited. Everyone left comments, and many people sent gifts.
However, the gifts given by these people were extremely limited and could not play a decisive role.
“What are they trying to do? Are they trying to compete with us for first place?” Ji Qingyan puffed up her cheeks and asked.
“We can’t give him a chance.”
Before Lin Yi could say anything, Ji Qingyan sent out another ten super rockets.
However, she soon realized that Lin Yi was still in second place and had not surpassed first place.
“Hmm?” Ji Qingyan fiddled with her phone. “Did I swipe too little?”
Then, she slowly sent another 20 rockets out.
Seeing the rockets flying in the live stream, Lin Yi felt deeply sorry for the DNF streamer.
‘You’re just a small streamer. Why are you competing with a rich woman with a net worth of more than three billion yuan?’
“F*ck, she’s definitely a rich woman. Our number one sister has already sent 40 super rockets.”
“He’s not just being helped by the first sister. The second on the rankings is also a woman. She’s also sent nine rockets.”
“I’m puzzled. Why are there rich women spamming rockets even when he’s wearing a mask? If I hide my face on my live stream, will the same thing happen to me?”
“Previous poster, since you’re so humorous, why don’t you go to this year’s Spring Festival Gala to perform the finale comedy skit? Although Brother Mask covered his face, he’s still invincible in terms of height and appearance.”
“His height and appearance don’t explain anything. Maybe he’s another catfish. Otherwise, why would he cover his face?”
The person who spoke was Liu Siyuan from Ma Weian’s side. She was prepared to stir up chaos in the chatroom.
She could already tell that Lin Yi’s popularity was because of the support of these rich women.
If she swayed these people, Lin Yi would no longer be able to compete with Old Meng for the Newcomer King title.
“It doesn’t matter if Brother Masks looks good or bad. It’s all about ability.” Lin Yi’s loyal fan said.
“I feel that Brother Mask is an omnipotent person. He’s really awesome.”
“This is Brother Mask’s live stream room. Please get lost.”
Zhang Xiaoyu used her authority as a moderator to kick Liu Siyuan out.
At the same time, Ma Weian’s expression was ugly when he saw Lin Yi jump to first place again.
“Are they that strong?”
“There’s a rich woman brainlessly spamming the rankings for him. She’s spammed 40 super rockets.”
“F*ck,” Ma Weian cursed. “Old Meng, stop keeping the audience in suspense. Enhance your +17 weapon now and attract the crowd. Then, I’ll tip you some super rockets. We have to defeat him today.”
“Got it.”
Meng Jinyang adjusted his sitting posture and said to the people in the live-stream,
“Brothers, the necessary materials and padding are all prepared. Success or failure depends on this. I have to go up to +18 today. I want to be the number one red-eyed player in the entire server today!”
With Meng Jinyang’s shout, the popularity of the live stream increased rapidly.
On the leaderboards, the gap between him and Lin Yi was unimaginably close.
“F*ck, it worked!”
Meng Jinyang’s live stream was in an uproar when they saw that the item-strengthening process had been successful.
A large number of viewers surged into his live stream, and some of the people watching Lin Yi’s live stream even ran over.
This kind of thing was not very common. If they missed it, they would not have the chance to watch it again.
It was precisely for this reason that Ma Weian only needed to use five super rockets before Meng Jinyang surpassed Lin Yi and became first again.
On Lin Yi’s side, Ji Qingyan kept muttering.
“This person called the Wilderness Plagiarist is too annoying. He took our first place again.”
“Calm down, don’t be angry.” Lin Yi smiled and comforted her.
“Is the most valuable gift on this platform a super rocket? Is there anything more expensive?”
“More expensive?”
“That’s right. I’m thinking of the kind of gift that costs tens of thousands of yuan each. It’ll be more convenient to swipe that way and will save me trouble.”
“Um… no…”
“Then I’ll just do it this way for now. I have nothing better to do anyway.”
Lin Yi sighed, feeling a little sorry for the DNF streamer.
“Seriously, why are you guys competing with Ji Qingyan for no reason?”
“Can’t you be content just staying alive?”
