Chapter 153 The Eve of the Spring Festival Gala

Tonight is a night of revelry for countless internet celebrities, all of whom are glued to Jingjingzi's live stream, waiting for the goddess to descend.

Of course it's not Jingjing Zi. Although she was the top goddess of the original generation, she's only here as the host today.

As the countdown to the live stream began to run for 10 seconds, a barrage of comments started appearing on the screen.

Carrot Loves to Eat Little Rabbit: Two goddesses in the same frame. Get your hands ready, start taking screenshots!

Pikachu loves to eat Pikachu: Looking forward to Shishi singing tonight!

Shi Shi's favorite character: My wife appears too infrequently! There aren't enough fans to go around! Finally, she's back to work! This is the best New Year's gift I could ever ask for!

As the countdown ended, Jingjingzi's face appeared on the big screen. At this moment, a husband with the ID "Shishi" stood out. He swiped 10 Carnivals in one go.

Fu Yingzhou on the other end of the screen was speechless. There were level restrictions for sending money to others? His account was newly registered, and he could only send this much money. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry; strict internet regulation certainly made sense. Having money but no way to spend it, unable to support his beloved Xiaocao (a popular online figure), it was too difficult!

After searching through my friends, I finally got through to Hang Yi: "Do you have a Douyin account? Can I borrow it?"

He's the only one among these people who would tip the female streamer!

"Of course there is. What are you doing? Are you getting tired of the old and looking for the new during the New Year? What kind of stunning beauty would make you abandon Shishi?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Your sister-in-law owns an influencer company, and she's connecting with fans today. I'm going to support her."

In the other live stream, Jingjingzi had two buns in her hair and was wearing a red cheongsam with a fur collar. She looked cheerful and full of New Year's atmosphere.

"Thank you to the netizen 'Shishi's Husband' for the gift! This year is a special New Year's thank you event~ Thank you to everyone who has supported all the influencers under our Influencer Creation Bureau in the past year!"

Even though the company has been open for less than a year, who cares about these details? It just sounds more impressive this way!

"Husbands and wives, type 'Shi Shi' in the chat. Let's welcome the boss of the Celebrity Manufacturing Bureau, the famous talented woman, the Peking University teacher, and the so-called Golden Melody Maker, Shi Shi, to the stage!"

It looked like it had been meticulously prepared; at that moment, a series of firework effects burst onto the screen. These effects cost far more than 50 cents; judging from the sheer quality, they must have cost 50,000 50-cent fireworks.

Shi Shi's face appeared on the big screen. Today, she and Jing Jingzi looked like sisters. However, compared to the more endearing Jing Jingzi, her red suit had a dashing beauty. Although it was nearing the end of the year and red filled the air, her wearing red instantly elevated her aura. Already possessing an unapproachable, aloof quality, she exuded an even more cold and incomparable charm.

"Hello everyone, I'm Shishi. A couple of days ago, one of my company's employees actually told me, 'President Shi, your fans are all looking forward to you, they're all eagerly waiting to see you and hear you sing.' I was really, really shocked."

The comments section was filled with expressions of shock and disbelief, but Shi Shi calmly replied, "I'm shocked that I actually have fans!"

The comments seemed to pause for a moment.

Shishi tried to smooth things over by saying, "Okay, that was a lame joke. At least I still have Jingjing as a fan."

Jingjing, who was standing next to her, took over the conversation and began to follow the procedures for today's live broadcast.

"The big boss is coming to the live stream today, so feel free to tell me any New Year's wishes you have~ I'll agree to them all, hehe, anyway, it's not up to me!"

She's always been this playful, as her longtime fans know, and this was a special live stream on the eve of New Year's Eve, so the number of viewers in the live stream kept skyrocketing. The servers backend were practically smoking. Both manpower and equipment were being continuously increased.

365,000

391,000

444,000

800,000!!

In less than 10 minutes after the broadcast started, the number of viewers skyrocketed to 800,000!

This kind of appeal is usually only available to top-tier celebrities. According to their backend data on live stream reservations, only 4 million IDs had booked in total. It's unbelievable that one-fifth of them showed up right at the start. Add to that organic traffic and platform link promotions, and it seems like surpassing 4 million viewers today will be no problem!

At this moment, the comments section was flooded with requests for singing, emphasizing the importance of listening to Shi Shi's songs, especially her new songs. Many people were also typing their favorite song titles on the screen.

Little Cherry Calf: I want to hear Liangliang!

May Fourth Mud Butterfly: I want to hear my wife call me by my online name! Experience a forbidden love remotely! Hissing hissing~

Shrimp doesn't blink: I want to hear something decent!

Suspect who is sleepy: To be honest, I'm sleepy, but I want to hear Shi Shi sing "Chi Ling" live.

Dutch Bean from Henan: Can I hear two goddesses sing together? I'm being greedy!

Pancake Dog: The new year is about to begin, my friend. I wish I could receive a New Year's gift from my wife!

Shishi suddenly spoke up: "Hello to the netizen named Pancake Dog. Shishi has prepared a New Year's gift for everyone today. Before this live broadcast, I was thinking about what to give you. After all, I only write songs casually~ Maybe there will be some surprises, but not anything particularly original."

At this moment, Jingjingzi, the straight man, came on stage and asked in feigned surprise, "President Shi, President Shi, what gifts have you prepared? Is there one for me?"

"No! In fact, I've already turned off the tipping feature. Today is our fan appreciation event, and we won't be accepting any gifts or tips from you. It's purely a giveaway!"

At this point, the viewers in the live stream were incredibly curious and started checking their gift-giving screens. They discovered that the gifts had indeed turned gray.

The number of likes on the screen was increasing rapidly.

Pancake Dog: Oh my god, my wife called my name! I regret it, I didn't record it. Can you say it again, honey?

Ever since Shishi started wearing the glasses from the system, her recognition skills have been top-notch: "Ready? I'm going to mention your name! I'm talking to you, Pancake Dog. Happy New Year!"

Some talented artists do have their own temper. Compared to Shi Shi on stage, this is the first time they've seen her so approachable.

Phrases like "so kind to her fans" and "gentle goddess" started flooding the comments section again.

At this moment, Jingjingzi suddenly brought her face close to the screen, her big, bright eyes darting around. She raised a finger and shook it at the fans: "You think this counts as spoiling your fans? No, no, no. Let our CEO Shi tell you what gifts he has brought for everyone today."

Shishi pointed to the top left corner of the screen: "Everyone can see a small lucky bag in the top left corner of the screen. This is a new feature launched by our Influencer Creation Bureau in conjunction with Douyin platform. You can click to share and draw a gift from the lucky bag."

"Let's start with a small token for the first lucky bag, a million dollars, and wish everyone a Happy New Year in advance!"

The screen seemed to freeze for a moment, and then question marks flooded the live stream chat.

? ? ? ? ?

Huh? It's a bit windy inside. Did they not hear me clearly? One million or one hundred dollars? No way!
