Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Live Stream PK
This world wasn’t a novel. Life wasn’t full of so many coincidences.
Without profit as a motive, a string of coincidences was no longer a coincidence—it was a certainty.
"I can’t believe it’s him..."
"What’s wrong, Sister Mingi? Do you know him?"
"I wouldn’t say I know him, but he was the PK King of the food category a few years back. He’s basically the top strear in the category. His stats are great, he has his own established streaming format and fanbase, and his resources and inco are both very stable. I just didn’t expect—"
’That a strear like him would resort to such bizarre thods of unfair competition.’
"Looks like he thinks pretty highly of . Sister Mingi, have you noticed? I’ve beco quite a big deal without even realizing it."
"Let’s hold off for now. We need to confirm who it is first, so we don’t end up hurting the wrong person."
"Hurting the wrong person?" Wanxing was sensitive to that phrase. "Qiuqiu, what are you planning to do?"
"Give him a taste of his own dicine, of course."
Most of the ti, Jiang Qiuqiu wanted to be a peaceful person.
But when trouble ca knocking, she wouldn’t back down.
It was simply a matter of turning his own tricks back on him.
After discussing a few other matters and their recent operations in the encrypted room, the three of them logged off. Jiang Qiuqiu stood quietly at the edge of the courtyard, looking outside.
It was November, and the weather was getting colder. The end of the year was approaching, and in early January, she was scheduled to attend the preliminary selection for non-traditional students at Federation University.
There was still no word on the complaint she had filed with the learning center.
She stared into the distance for a long ti.
「That night.」
ii called.
"Sister Mingi, what is it?"
"I’ve got a lead on what you asked
to look into today." The studio itself was very ethical; no matter what they tried—threats, bribes, even sending soone to infiltrate them—they couldn’t find a single shred of evidence that they were hiring paid posters.
But the Federation’s northern branch wasn’t so ironclad. Wang Henli and his people probably never expected Jiang Qiuqiu to narrow down the suspects so quickly, and their process for withdrawing money from the company wasn’t exactly a secret.
Little President Qian used so of his own channels and got the information quickly.
"Recently, Wang Henli did indeed withdraw a sum of money from the finance departnt."
"And the withdrawal was made just two days before the sar campaign against Jiang Qiuqiu started."
It was the final nail in the coffin. His identity was all but confird.
"And Wanxing just told
that those IDs haven’t been posting in any other food communities all day. I’m afraid they’ve co up with a new plan."
"At this rate, if they don’t co up with a new plan, I’d start to think they were actually trying to promote ."
"Fair point. Now that we know who our opponent is, what’s your next move?"
"The sa as our opponent’s."
"?" ii didn’t quite understand.
Jiang Qiuqiu said, "The best defense is a good offense. It’s not like they’re the only ones in this business who can hire paid posters. We can, too."
Jiang Qiuqiu whispered a few words to ii, whose eyes suddenly lit up.
"That could work."
"I think so, too."
"Oh, right. Qiuqiu, since we’re on the topic, do you want to join our company’s annual strear conference at the end of the year?"
"No, thank you." The event required her to show her face, and unless it was absolutely necessary, Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t want to appear in front of too many people.
"Oh, that’s right. I forgot you’re starting at the university soon... What about the PK then?" Afraid she might refuse, ii quickly added, "Even if you place high in the PK, attendance at the annual conference isn’t mandatory."
"It’s a competition in the food category. It’ll bring a lot of exposure."
"How long does it run?"
"Around December 20th."
"In that case, I’m in."
