Cooldâs words stunned Ye Lingchen slightly.
âReally?â Ye Lingchen wanted to know for sure.
He was initially just kidding, but there was another, more fundamental aspect of a live streamâits host!
Ye Lingchen believed that his abilities were sufficient to carry the entire platform. He could later train some capable hosts in the future. However, that was too time-consuming and laborious.
Coold was undoubtedly the leading female host in the DOTA world. She had diehard fans supporting her, and if she were to come over, Ye Lingchen would not need to worry that much anymore.
âReally!â Coold gave Ye Lingchen a resolute reply. âAfter you left, my contract was almost expiring, but I didnât renew it!â
Ye Lingchen pursed his lips and kept quiet for a moment.
âThis platform is too ruthless. I canât stay here.â Coold explained to herself, and then said: âNow that Iâm out of a job, I wonder if Big Boss Y-God is willing to take me in?â
âThat wonât be a problem, of course,â Ye Lingchen immediately said, âWhatâs your pay when you did live streams for Huyu?â
âUmm, this platform is just starting out, so just count me as an ordinary host.â Coold said, âWeâre friends anyway, and since weâre having a hard time together, letâs not talk about money.â
âHehe, who told you Iâm having hard times?â Ye Lingchen chuckled. âWill I be able to buy over Panda Streaming if Iâm poor? If you come to my platform, Iâll make sure you wonât be treated badly!â
Song Qian was surely aware of Cooldâs treatment in Huyu. Ye Lingchen was prepared to offer her the same terms as before, which would be reevaluated again when the live stream platform expands!
He hung up, but his cell phone rang again not long later.
âHey, Brother Y-God, youâre a big boss now, right? Is it possible for you to help me?â Wuâerâs adorable voice was heard through the phone.
âWhatâs up?â
âIâm unemployed now. Maybe I can try to make ends meet on your platform?â Wuâer asked pitifully. âItâs fine if you offer me the lowest basic salary, as long as I can put food on my table.â
âAlright, quit pretending. Your contract expired, too?â
âMmhmm, yeah.â Wuâer gritted her teeth and said bitterly, âHuyuâs live stream platform is a scam. And then thereâs that Si Yu, I donât like it there!â
âOkay, welcome to Panda Streaming!â
...
Next, Love Letter and 09 also contacted Ye Lingchen. They were ready to wait until their contract expired before shifting over to Panda Streaming.
In addition to them, many hosts from Huyu surprisingly took the initiative to contact Panda Streaming.
Although they did not have much of a reputation, they were hosts too. Panda Streaming lacked people and needed an influx of fresh talent.
Some of those hosts were unable to get along with Huyu anymore. They could no longer make money and were ready to migrate to Panda Streaming to try their luck. They bet on Panda Streaming being a hit in the future even though the platform had only just started. Meanwhile, others simply could not bear to watch Huyuâs way of doing things. They were concerned they might become expendable if they continued to stay there.
In short, Panda Streamingâs first step in publicity was a resounding success.
However, immediately afterward, one of the microblogs in Weibo suddenly went viral, climbing up to first place at lightspeed!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âY-Godâs live stream will premiere on Panda Streaming tonight!â
The news was tantamount to pouring a can of gasoline on a fire and igniting everything in an instant!
[Ahhh, Y-God is going to stream live tonight! So excited, I feel like Iâm gonna c*m!]
[What will Y-God stream live this time? Iâm soooo looking forward to it. Evening canât come soon enough!]
[What a surprise! What a big surprise, I must support Y-God!]
[Panda Streaming? F*ck! Iâll download it now!]
...
At the same time, Wang Yuanâs face was extremely gloomy behind the scenes at Huyu. His entire body trembled from immense anger, and he ordered in a hoarse voice, âGo and dig up Panda Streamingâs current statistics!â
âCEO Wang, I once said that Y-Godâs ambitions were not small. My prediction is ringing true!â Zhou Min remarked with a cold face.
âHumph! That two-timing Song Qian! To think that heâs now going over to the Panda Streaming! His heart is set on going against us!â Wang Yuanâs eyes narrowed slightly. âDid they think they were big enough to make any sort of difference?â
âThese two were cast aside by Huyu and they bought over Panda Streaming, which was on the verge of collapse. Itâs nothing but the last hurrah from them.â Zhou Min huffed. âI bet that Panda Streaming will cease operations within three months! â
It was then that a behind-the-scenes staff member walked in with a form. There were traces of anxiety in his eyes. âCEO Wang, this is the data from Panda Streaming.â
Wang Yuan quickly held up the data. One look was enough to make his mood sink.
In just half a day, the number of downloads for Panda Streamingâs app reached 80,000!
Madness was the only word appropriate to describe that statistic.
The most crucial piece of data for an app was the number of downloads. Those downloads basically represented an absolutely reliable user base. That was only half a day after Panda Streamingâs emergence!
Following that trend, Panda Streaming was surely in for a popularity explosion!
Turning to the second page, Wang Yuanâs breath was suddenly heavy, and his pupils were filled with anger.
The data showed that many of Huyu Streamingâs hosts had jumped ship to Panda Streaming. Among them were a few well-known hosts too!
âWhatâs going on?â Wang Yuanâs voice was somber. âThere arenât any issues with how we treated them, right?â
Zhou Min glanced at Si Yu surreptitiously before saying, âThese hosts may think that Panda Streaming has great potential. They might simply be thinking of going over just to take advantage of the popularity. Theyâre nothing but arrogant and ungrateful wretches.â
After Si Yu became their top female host, some strings were pulled and a group was formed to stifle some of the other hosts. Many of those who chose to leave suffered under Si Yu.
Of course, it was obvious that Zhou Min would not speak about it.
âCEO Wang, the truth is, you donât need to worry,â Zhou Min said nonchalantly. âThe reason why Panda Streaming became viral is because it has a few hyped-up aspects. However, the ultimate focus of a live stream is the host and their content. Panda Streaming has a much lower standard than us! Moreover, Y-Godâs Grave Robberâs Chronicles is still in our hands. Is anyone even able to surpass this kind of work?â
Wang Yuanâs complexion finally improved somewhat. Huyu Streamingâs insider knowledge was naturally unparalleled when compared to Panda Streaming.
He flipped to the third page, but both his hands were shaking and he coughed violently.
On the third page was the number of Huyuâs Emperors. At that moment, hundreds of emperors chose to take their Emperor title and leave Huyu!
It was obvious where they went!
Those were all Emperors!
Surprisingly, those rich individuals that live stream platform catered to had chosen to leave at that exact moment!
Y-God charm was phenomenal!
Wang Yuan felt fear for the very first time. He was secretly praying for Y-Godâs live stream to be unspectacular.
As the day went on, time ticked closer to Y-Godâs live stream. The number of people waiting in front of the computer skyrocketed too!
There was a huge banner recommendation promoting Y-Godâs live stream on Panda Streamingâs home page. It occupied half the screen. The popularity had exceeded 500,000 even before the live stream started!
