Chapter 130: Create others, don’t let your own people suffer
Bai Yan'er's story was well-known in the upper circles. After all, the entire Bai family relied on her to get close to the Gongsun family and successfully made the Bai family a first-class family. This matter was talked about by the entire circle. Some small families even wanted to copy this path but failed, and thus became jealous of the Bai family.
Now that the Bai family has fallen, Bai Yan'er has no family support behind her, so there is no possibility for her to be with Gongsun Jin.
Those who knew about it were not afraid of offending Bai Yan'er, and excitedly told her everything.
This includes the fact that the Gongsun family was interested in Meng Ke as their daughter-in-law. Gongsun Jin had been pursuing Meng Ke for two consecutive years. It was said that he delivered a gift every morning on time, rain or shine. However, because of Bai Yan'er, the troublemaker, Meng Ke didn't agree even after two years of pursuit.
Those who heard the gossip only then realized that Bai Yan'er was actually a mistress, and they felt extremely ashamed.
The general public in the interstellar world has formed a fixed mindset: it is okay for a woman to find multiple men, but if she finds a man who is already in a relationship, she will be looked down upon by everyone.
Bai Yan'er and Ye Ranran were filled with hatred. Not only did they fail to crush Meng Ke and Luo Tian to death, but they were actually outmaneuvered. This was even more painful than their own death.
During the award ceremony, Bai Yan'er deliberately changed the way she gave the award to Luo Tian.
Just when she was thinking about how to embarrass Luo Tian, Meng Ke went on stage with Luo Tian, took the trophy from the robot first, and handed it to Luo Tian with both hands with a bright smile.
Luo Tian took the trophy and hugged Meng Ke tightly.
His wife's protection gave him infinite courage. The haze of inferiority that had accumulated in his childhood dissipated at this moment, and he embraced his rising sun as warmly as Xi.
"Honey, you are so kind!"
There was thunderous applause, and everything was as good as it could be.
Bai Yan'er and Ye Ranran looked at everything around them through the same pair of eyes. This warmth made them extremely uncomfortable. They really wanted to tear it all apart! Make everyone disappear! Die!
Bai Yan'er's eyes gradually turned red. The host was close by and immediately noticed something was wrong. He quietly contacted the guards to take the person away.
Ye Ranran was much more emotionally stable than Bai Yan'er. She quickly took control of her body, gently pushed away the guard who was supporting her, and walked to a table by the side of the second row and sat down.
After a long pause, Bai Yan'er came back to fight for the initiative of her body, but for some reason, Bai Yan'er failed to get her body back.
"Get out! Give your body back to me!"
Bai Yan'er screamed and cursed in her mind, but Ye Ranran acted as if she didn't hear it. She slightly raised her lips and revealed a triumphant smile.
Gongsun Jin was staring at the live broadcast room. When he saw the smile on Yan'er's lips, he suddenly had a bad premonition and quickly got up and rushed to the banquet venue.
After the award ceremony, there is an impromptu performance session. Many anchors want to show up in this session, but the company has requirements for the performances on stage. If the number of live broadcast viewers drops by more than 10%, the anchors performing on stage will have their contract share reduced by 10% for every 10% increase.
This is related to one's own money. Without real ability, no one dares to go up.
Even though you know that going there is the best time to gain fans.
There will be a small climax during the award ceremony. The first person to perform at this time will be under great pressure. The live broadcast company also knows this, so they often operate behind the scenes at this time and discuss privately with the anchors in the first row to let them perform on stage without deducting any share of the profits.
The person who was privately interviewed by the live broadcast company for the behind-the-scenes operation this time was Zou Si. He was once the chief of the Mecha Combat Department of the Fourth Military Academy. After graduation, he established his own mercenary group. Whenever he was not on a mission, he would play games on the virtual platform. He is still the number one in the alumni PK competition.
The interstellar people admire the strong, and as soon as Zou Si came on stage, the atmosphere suddenly became lively. Even Meng Ke was excited when he saw Zou Si's game, and wanted to have a few rounds, even if it meant getting beaten.
As soon as Zou Si stepped down from the stage, Meng Ke leaned over to discuss, "Do you want to make an appointment?"
What she meant was whether she could arrange a match. As a result, her words were broadcasted by the live broadcast device, and everyone thought that she had taken a fancy to Zou Si and wanted to date him. Even Zou Si thought so. His face instantly turned red, and he turned away and didn't look at Meng Ke.
Meng Ke turned around and asked Uncle Lei, who was covering his mouth and laughing, "Can't we meet offline?"
Uncle Lei glanced at the jealous Luo Tian, cleared his throat, and nodded affirmatively: "Yes! Of course! I must!"
Luo Tiantian threatened angrily: "Second Uncle, if you do this again, I will tell Brother Hu."
Uncle Lei was quite arrogant: "Go ahead and sue me! Who's afraid of who? I'm your elder, humph!"
Meng Ke rolled her eyes: "Just keep talking tough!"
Zou Si thought Meng Ke would pester him to add her computer number, but he didn't expect that the woman would give up just because he didn't say anything.
Sure enough, his father was right, women are all heartless.
After two more shows, Zou Si felt that he couldn't miss this opportunity to find his partner, so he walked up to Meng Ke and turned on his laptop: "Add me as a friend."
Meng Ke's eyes lit up, haha! That's really good, add it quickly!
"Let's make an appointment sometime!"
Meng Ke wants to have a fight.
However, Zou Si's thoughts turned to something else. After adding his friend, he immediately pretended to be calm and left. In fact, his red face had already exposed his little thoughts.
At this time, his live broadcast room was full of jokes and blessings.
Meng Ke never expected that the ancient costume drama she saw before traveling through time would be performed in another way in the interstellar space.
After Bai Yan'er found out that Meng Ke had no special skills, she spent a large sum of money to let the black fan company incite people and force Meng Ke to perform on stage.
When the host read out the fans' wishes and hoped that Meng Ke would perform on stage, Meng Ke was a little confused.
Soon, she realized what was going on. She turned to look at Bai Yan'er in the corner, and sure enough, she received a provocative look.
This guy is really annoying. If he pushes Meng Ke up at this time, he will attract negative attention if he doesn't perform. He will still attract negative attention if he doesn't perform well. Even if he performs well, he won't be able to increase popularity for Tiantian's live broadcast room unless Tiantian himself goes on stage.
Everyone on and off the stage was waiting for Meng Ke to come on stage, but Meng Ke used his mental power and his voice filled the whole place: "No money, no performance!"
"This guy is so snobbish. He won't perform if he doesn't have money, and he still says he's not vain. I think the goddess is absolutely right."
The black fans immediately started to lead the trend, and chaos broke out on the Internet.
In the VIP room of the banquet hall, Luo Jing passed a message to the host: "Tell her that she will get 50% of the live broadcast income from the performance. Based on the current number of viewers, her share will increase by 10% for every 10% increase in viewers."
Meng Ke doesn't have a live broadcast room, so it's really unfair for her to go on stage without any income, so Luo Jing gave her all the income from the platform, or even more. The key lies in whether she has the ability to get it.
When the host announced the rules in public, there was an uproar inside and outside the live broadcast. Many people were dissatisfied as to why she could get so much.
Luo Jing's emergency PR was spot on. The host immediately announced, "Whenever a streamer's family members perform on stage, the base share is 50%. For every 10% increase in viewership, the share also increases by 10%. Similarly, if viewership decreases, for every 10% decrease, the streamer's earnings will also decrease by 10% for the next year."
Many family members with acting talent began to get excited, and Meng Ke was their testing ground.
Seeing that he couldn't get out of the situation, Meng Ke had no choice but to go on stage while thinking.
She had never learned any musical instruments before she traveled through time. She had learned a few tricks of playing the hand drum from her grandfather while carving. She could just clap them as she pleased. This was fine to appease children, but it was obviously not enough to perform at a banquet like this.
So what should we perform? It can't be a fighting show, right?
After I came here, I either farmed or trained, and I didn’t know how to do anything else.
