Chapter 284 I Want to Be a Big Star (7)
Due to the time difference, Xiong Bufan and his team's live stream started in the evening in China. When the live stream first started, there were only a few scattered people in the live stream room, but then the number of people skyrocketed like a rocket, all the way up to 100,000.
The production team acknowledged Li Qingniang's popularity, but by focusing the camera solely on her, the live stream was likely shut down shortly.
The operations team quietly arranged for the camera to be shifted to other people. When the camera panned across Luo Manman and Shen An, they were smiling and waving to the audience. Xiong Bufan was lying on the ground sunbathing. She was simply a genius, a genius who knew how to make use of waste.
By letting those people make money through live streaming for her, she fulfilled the original owner's wish. She could become an internet celebrity, and those people wouldn't have to be good-for-nothings who just loaf around and wait to die.
Viewers in the live stream started attacking Xiong Bufan, saying things like, "Can lqn get out of the live stream and get out of China?"
"Get out of here, Li Qingniang. Just looking at her makes me sick."
"How dare Li Qingniang do a live stream? She's shameless."
"The production team will stop at nothing to make money. Li Qingniang, get out of here."
..........
The chat was buzzing with excitement. Xiong Bufan, as if sensing something, went to his phone screen. Xu Da was now acting as the manager, trying to lighten the mood of the live stream. He had felt relieved when he saw everyone cursing Xiong Bufan earlier, but now he just wanted to cover the screen so Xiong Bufan wouldn't see it.
Xiong Bufan watched Xu Da's actions and said, "Let go of my hand. I want to see how much money I can make."
The photographer, of course, wouldn't miss this exciting moment, carrying his camera and following Xiong Bufan closely, including when Xu Da was in charge of operations and when Xiong Bufan needed to look at the screen.
The comments section was still filled with insults directed at Xiong Bufan: "Who does Li Qingniang think she is? Get out of here!"
"I not only cursed you, I cursed you to your face, Li Qingniang, you bitch!"
"Death to the women who swindle money and commit marriage fraud! Death to Li Qingniang!"
......
Seeing the barrage of insults in the comments section, Xu Da, fearing that Xiong Bufan might get angry and hit him, awkwardly tried to comfort him, saying, "Teacher Li, please don't be angry. The audience doesn't know anything."
Xiong Bufan looked at the wave after wave of insults and said, "It's very impolite to insult people without knowing the whole story."
"I curse you all! Whoever curses me will be doomed!" As she spoke, she secretly placed her spiritual energy into her phone, warning anyone who dared to curse her to face the consequences.
Xiong Bufan's voice wasn't quiet, and the viewers in the live stream could hear it clearly.
The barrage of comments scrolled faster. In Xu Da's view, Xiong Bufan was simply escalating the conflict. However, the worse Li Qingniang's reputation was, the better.
Xiong Bufan remained defiant and continued to say to Xu Da, "We can't let them watch for free; they have to pay to watch."
Those who haven't paid have no right to curse me, nor do they have the right to curse Li Qingniang.
The comments section was still filled with insults directed at Xiong Bufan, some even mocking him for being overconfident and greedy for money. But the next second, Xu Da shut down the live stream. He was just an operator, making a living under Xiong Bufan's command. To avoid getting beaten up, he naturally listened to Xiong Bufan.
The live stream ended after she was scolded, infuriating the viewers. Li Qingniang actually dared to shut down the live stream; what exactly was the production team trying to do?
They will definitely find new ways to wash away their shame. They don't believe that Li Qingniang will give up the opportunity to make a fortune through live streaming.
Finally, their hard work paid off, and they found the show's alternate account for live streaming. So paying to watch wasn't important; they weren't worried about a few dollars.
The number of viewers in the live stream was only half of what it used to be. The gifts contained swear words and banned words, and the gifts of all sizes filled the entire live stream.
Xu Da looked at Xiong Bufan staring blankly at the script, and thought to himself, "This woman seems to really understand the internet."
Fortunately, the live streaming industry is thriving now, otherwise even the best ideas would be impossible to realize.
The screenwriter, watching from the side, cautiously asked Xiong Bufan, "Teacher Li, what do you think of the script?"
"Tell me, I don't understand."
Nowadays, celebrities all fake their academic credentials, claiming to have graduated from some prestigious university. The screenwriter didn't expect Xiong Bufan to not hide anything at all, and directly admitted in the live broadcast that she was illiterate. After being caught in the wilderness survival challenge, she had no intention of continuing her career.
The photographer is practically shoving the equipment right in Xiong Bufan's face to take pictures; it's all just hype. A blockbuster is about to be born under his control.
In the live stream, voices cursing Xiong Bufan were constantly heard, but since only those who spent money to send gifts could type out insults, small gifts worth one cent were flying all over the screen.
When it was time to eat, the kitchen staff searched for a long time but couldn't find any ingredients. The compressed biscuits and dried meat they had hidden were also gone, so they had to rush to find the stage manager.
The production crew was incompetent; supplies were delivered only once every three days, and food couldn't possibly run out so quickly. When they arrived, they found the warehouse completely empty, so they had no choice but to go find the director.
Since the assistant director died, the director has been lying in bed, barely clinging to life, and nobody cares about him. Xiao Sun has also disappeared.
However, the medical staff have already splinted the director's neck, but if he wants it to return to its original state, he can only go to a reputable hospital in Shanghai to see a specialist; otherwise, his neck will remain as it is.
The production assistant, seeing the director's expression, didn't dare to move, afraid of causing him further harm. He could only cautiously say, "Director, we're out of supplies. We've run out of food and fresh water."
The director rolled his eyes. He realized the medical staff had probably injured his vocal cords when they worked, so all he could do was groan, "Hah, hah, hah."
The kitchen staff looked at the director with a hint of fear and instinctively hid behind the production assistant. The production assistant said, "Director, please go ahead with your work. We'll get back to work now."
Director: "Heh, heh, heh," Busy my ass! At least leave someone to serve me. I'm the director, after all.
Hearing the "ho, ho" sound, the group ran even faster. They were just waiting for the rescue to arrive; for now, they had to prepare for the possibility of going hungry.
The director was so angry he wanted to pound the bed, but he couldn't muster the strength and could only stare intently in the direction the group had left.
Excluding the guests, there were more than a dozen people in the production team and medical team. Xiong Bufan looked at the people in front of him. Some of them had never appeared in front of the original owner, some refused to give the original owner food, and some secretly gave the original owner some food.
Stagehand: "Teacher Li, look at all these people. If they keep going hungry, it will affect the live broadcast."
Xiong Bufan stood up. "Didn't the director keep saying there was no food? We're on a deserted island, and now it's a survival challenge. I'll compete fairly with you guys."
However, I'm not an unreasonable bear. You can buy food from me, or you can exchange it for other things.
The crew members wanted to curse when they heard Xiong Bufan's words. Li Qingniang was clearly throwing back what they had said before: just wait for the rescue to arrive, that's all that matters.
