Inside the Conference Room.
Hong Shuangxi and Lu Wei were still talking non-stop.
“Chairman, everyone, I feel that a broadcaster should have certain basic decency and integrity. One should not deceive the viewers for small rewards. People could be fooled once or twice, but would anyone trust you after being deceived too many times? Therefore, I absolutely cannot condone Ye Fei’s approach. Though his achievements during the past few days were fairly outstanding, I fear that it is merely a flash in a pan. You just watch. If the viewers did not condemn the platform alongside him, I shall be very satisfied.”
“Manager Hong worded it well. I, too, believe that cheating is a very shameful thing. Especially in front of so many people. Therefore, I feel, ah, people like Ye Fei should not appear on our platform at all. In fact, though it is a little drastic, we should block him completely. Otherwise, having a rat like him shitting around the place would just ruin an entire pot of good broth.”
The managers of other sections did not express their views on Hong Shuangxi or Lu Wei’s statements. In fact, they all knew that these two fellows just could not get used to seeing Fine Food Section on the rise. Especially since it looked like Fine Food could potentially surpass them. Therefore, they wanted to step on this potential rival before it could even fly properly.
What Ye Fei was tricking the viewers etc, what, this is not right, that is not good. Even if all these claims were true, it’s up to Zhao Sen to police that person’s actions. Why are you so anxious? Clearly, you are just envious of their super awesome broadcaster and fear that your No. 1 and No. 2 seats would be snatched away. That is the real reason why you’re being so hostile.
Ma Qingyun has a fairly good grasp of Ye Fei’s circumstances. Although Ye Fei had essentially knocked down his face during their last encounter, that fellow had not left QQ Platform. Surely this means that he intends to stick around and assist them in secret? Ma Qingyun did not voice this point out loud, some things were better left unsaid. It is enough that the heart understands.
He felt rather strange seeing Hong Shuangxi and Lu Wei teaming up to slander Ye Fei. He thought: Is this guy’s presence so great that he could threaten these two fellows’ position?
If this was true, then he really could not let Ye Fei leave. This one person could shake up two of their most successful section managers. This was not something that an ordinary person could do, ah.
While Hong Shuangxi and Lu Wei continued to pour out Ye Fei’s faults, the door to the conference hall opened. Zhao Sen walked in with a spring in his step. Everyone could see the pocket file in his hand.
Zhao Sen waved at everyone before sitting down. Then, he carefully placed the document in front of him. This fellow even gave the document a little polish with his sleeve, as though he was wiping a bit of dust [1] off a piece of art.
After that, he adjusted his suit, fixed his tie and even gave the ends of his fringe a little pull before coughing twice into his fist. Then, with both hands on his thigh, he sat as straight as a pen.
Everyone observed this series of movements, a little confused. They all wondered: What’s wrong with this madam? Why are you smoothing out your suit and touching your hair like that? What’s going on, ah?
When no one said anything, Zhao Sen looked right, looked left, and, seeing all eyes on him, he graciously gestured to Lu Wei and Hong Shuangxi, “You two may continue.”
Hong Shuangxi, “… …”
Lu Wei, “… …”
F*ck, continue? What are we continuing, ah? Your little movements have confused us all, how do you expect us to continue, ah?
Ma Qingyun chuckled as he looked at Zhao Sen. Then, his eyes fell on the pocket file in front of Zhao Sen. He asked, “Manager Zhao, this document is…?”
Zhao Sen replied with a little ‘oh’ and proceeded to say, “Chairman, it’s just some of Ye Fei’s data. Just now, Old Feng said he wanted to send them to me. I was all ‘Aiya, it’s just some of Ye Fei’s data, why are you giving them to me, ah? It’s not like I’d never seen them before’. However, that Old Feng insisted on giving them to me personally. Anyway, after taking a look, well, there’s nothing surprising, really. It’s all the expected, data. Aih, that fellow~~~”
After hearing this from Zhao Sen, the corners of everyone’s mouth twitched.
F*ck me, all expected data?
You think you’re so funny? Could any of Ye Fei’s data from the past few days be described as ‘expected’? Only a ghost would expect it, ah!
When Ma Qingyun heard that the file contained Ye Fei’s data, he suddenly became interested. “I’m also very curious about this Ye Fei fellow. Why don’t Manager Zhao tell us more about this data you just received?”
Zhao Sen waved his hand and said, “Chairman, it’s really nothing. It’s just that Ye Fei started a live broadcast at 4 o’clock this afternoon. This is the data for that broadcast.”
“Pfftt~~~”
Hong Shuangxi nearly laughed out loud. He said, “Manager Zhao, are you trying to make us laugh? Ye Fei broadcasted at 4 o’clock just now?”
Zhao Sen nodded with an earnest, “En, en.” Then, he affected a puzzled look and said, “Manager Hong, why are you laughing?”
This time, Hong Shuangxi really laughed out loud. He said, “Everyone, what did I say just now? This is clearly the work of a novice, ah. Someone who knew nothing of the business. To be an excellent broadcaster, one must not only be talented at making content, but also be sensitive to the best times to broadcast. Even the most junior of broadcasters understand that the best time to broadcast is at noon and evening, ah. Have you ever seen any great deity broadcast outside of these two golden slots? To think that this Ye Fei would actually broadcast at 4 o’clock, did he hit his head at the door or something?”
Lu Wei also smiled and said, “Well, looks like this person still lacks experience, ah.”
Ma Qingyun also shook his head. He had not realized that Ye Fei would broadcast at such a bad time. Wait, that’s not right? Wasn’t that fellow with his daughter today? Still, have time to broadcast?
“Manager Zhao, just what is going on? Why did Ye Fei suddenly decide to broadcast at 4pm today? Tell us, don’t keep us in suspense like this.”
Zhao Sen finally composed his expression to say, “Chairman, we have been in a meeting with you since 11 this morning. Therefore, we do not know what is happening outside. Ye Fei’s usual broadcasting time is pretty normal, he generally starts his broadcast just a little after 12 pm. However, he left a message with the platform today to inform his fans that he could not broadcast, as he had something to do. This was perfectly reasonable since everyone would encounter an emergency of some sort, right? This was a perfectly understandable situation, and his viewers did not blame him at all. Only, it was at this time that something curious happened.”
Zhao Sen paused and… did not continue.
The people in front of him raged: You f*cker, you deliberately whet our appetites but dare to stop right after telling us that ‘something curious’ happened?
“Oh? What happened next?” Ma Qingyun asked innocently. He knew that this Ye Fei was quite strange, and really wanted to know what ‘curious’ action warranted this dramatic pause.
Zhao Sen cleared his throat and said, “It was truly curious. As you all know, all of Ye Fei’s previous broadcasts happened at 12:10 pm, right? Today, many of Ye Fei’s fans went directly to his channel without even seeing the announcement that Ye Fei would not be broadcasting today. Some even waited for close to three hours.”
Lu Wei sneered, “Manager Zhao, surely you are exaggerating? Are you saying that his fans just lurked around his channel even though their Great Deity did not arrive? How is this possible? Not even a Gold Star fan would be so loyal.”
Hong Shuangxi also laughed and said, “Where did Manager Zhao hear this? How funny, ah.”
Zhao Sen looked at these two people for a moment before chuckling, “Whether it is funny or not, I cannot tell. However, I know what happened next was no laughing business. At least, I can’t laugh at it.”
“What happened?” the people asked almost in unison.
Zhao Sen was very pleased with this reaction: En, you guys are a very good audience. Otherwise, the impact of my story would be lessened.
“When Ye Fei’s fans realized that he was not coming, someone actually tipped him. In fact, they rewarded him with a luxury plane!”
“What?!”
This really agitated them. Even in his absence, someone actually rewarded him? What does this mean? That means a free reward, ah! How long has it been since the last free reward on this platform? Each one of them was heads of their departments and knew these essential numbers like the back of their hands.
Therefore, when they heard that Ye Fei’s empty channel received a free reward, how could they not be shocked?
“Free reward?” Ma Qingyun asked.
Zhao Sen said, “En, that’s right. It was a free reward.”
Hong Shuangxi sneered and said, “It’s just a single plane. If I remember correctly, the record for free reward is still held by Tender Water Prince, our Song & Dance Section’s Great Deity. He received HX¥5,000 in free reward and now he’s a third-tier star with an album to his name. That fellow is doing very well now. Still, I must applaud Ye Fei for catching up to our section’s record. This achievement is worthy of celebration. Everyone, applause!”
Pa Pa Pa
This fellow actually slapped his hands loudly together.
Lu Wei also clapped.
The rest of them did not follow. They were still shocked by the news that someone had actually achieved a free reward after so many years. What does it mean?
It shows that the fans acknowledged him!
It shows that his live broadcast is very exciting.
Seeing no one joining in their antics, Hong Shuangxi and Lu Wei stopped clapping after a little while.
Zhao Sen looked at them as though they were two performing clowns. He said, “Manager Hong, I haven’t finished speaking yet. Your applause came too early.”
Hong Shuangxi was taken aback. He said, “What are you talking about?”
Lu Wei also felt a shudder in his heart. A bad feeling was creeping up his spine.
Sure enough, Zhao Sen went on to say, “Indeed someone awarded a luxury plane to Ye Fei. However, that was just the beginning. After that his fans generously awarded him will all kinds of things, more luxury planes, sports cars and… well, the list went on and on, in the end, we could only depend on the statistician to check the final count. At the end of the day, Ye Fei’s free reward is… well, could you guess?”
F*ck! Everyone seriously wanted to beat this guy up. Pound him into a meatloaf!
We haven’t even heard about this matter, how could we guess, ah?
Seeing how mad everyone was, Zhao Sen did not tease them anymore. He said, “Chairman, the free reward achieved by Ye Fei this time was three hundred and fifty-seven thousand three hundred and forty-seven Hua Xia Yuan!”
“What?”
“F*ck!”
“Amazeballs!”
“F*ck!”
“Ugh!”
“… …”
[Gumihou: That’s… not even the most exciting data, hahaha…]
