Mr. Sleepy brought in several fans of his novel, and there were several local netizens who were also local tycoons, spreading out C spot halos in the live comnts. 8th Station decided to give him so face and add him to the recomnded list on the ho page. In addition to ng Fan’s existing popularity, his viewers broke the 300,000 marks in half an hour. And it was still growing.
There were several people watching the stream, and even more who had clicked on the link on Penguin Animation Network directing them to the collections page for “There’s A Spirit Underground”. When the grand prize had just been given out for the 100,000 follower landmark, the collectors imdiately jumped to 110,000.
ng Fan continued to draw the prizes. This ti, he didn’t pull out anything but presented a GIF instead. “This is the newest magical array wireless charger from Japan, isn’t it super cool? Five winners.”
The GIF showed a black circular disk, and when the phone was placed in the center, a magic inscription lit up around the center. Following closely, the light would form into a six-pointed magic circle. When everything was lit up, the phone turned on as well, showing the charging display.
“Holy! This is whack!”
“Insanely Chunnibiyo isn’t it?!”
“I want it !”
“Pick !”
“I probably won’t win, so can Mr. host send the link to the product!”
“What what what can Mr. host tell the price so I wouldn’t want to buy it, thanks!”
“Don’t worry, it’ll be on Taobao in a few days hahaha!”
“I feel like the phone’s gonna grow wings anyti now!”
“Wait so Sakura isn’t going to appear next?”
“That’s too cool!”
“Can soone tell how this works?”
“Magnetic sensors, its high school physics.”
“Wireless charger? Hehe, I have to buy a phone that supports wireless charging!”
“Garbage, I can’t even play a ga as it charges!”
“Hahahahaha I got selected, I’m slapping myself, I want to retract my words!”
ng Fan and Mr. Sleepy had ticulously selected the gifts for the stream. More accurately, Mr. Sleepy was the one who had done most of the work. After all, he was proactive in everything, asides from updating his novel. Of course, the premise of his generosity was that his family owned coal.
So far among the eleven gifts given, excluding the books that were given in the first round, the gifts were not cheap, in addition to being well thought. Like the figures, which had been handmade by one of the best companies in the country. Although they were tiny, one figure cost several hundred… And the five fox girl costus were also made by a famous cosplay studio. He had ordered ten outfits in total but was only giving away five. On average, one costu cost about 1300-1400 HXB. It was the most expensive product given away on stream.
In the first 11 draws, the total cost of the projects was 30,000.
ng Fan and Mr. Sleepy had prepared 20 gifts in total, after calculating, the total cost was over 100,000 HXB—there were even more luxe gifts to follow.
Spending 100,000 hxb for gifts? Are they crazy?
Depends on the situation.
If it was so small-ti strear, five dollars was already an incredible reward. However, it was different for a broadcast with over 100,000 viewers.
100,000 viewers… If you were to really host a press conference, it would be considered well run if you could even get a few.
If you wanted to throw money, you need a venue to do it.
ng Fan’s stream had always maintained a viewer count of 50,000 or more, and when there was an event happening, it was normal to reach 100,000.
Even so, it was still hard to spend 100,000.
If he wanted to distribute 100,000, he’d need to satisfy the 20 rounds of gifts, which ant they would need 200,000 collectors. 200,000 collectors… Assuming you were a saint, you’d still need at least 200,000 views on the stream, right?
On the other hand, it was impossible to get 200,000 legit collectors anywhere else with only 100,000 HXB.
It’s not that all the netizen accounts on his stream were active ones, but the ratio of real to fake users was pretty touching. After all, ng Fan and Mr. Sleepy’s fans were all active users. They might not be able to follow his manga, but there would be at least 1/3 followers or 1/10 who were willing to.
But can it compare with the ones who were willing to pay and collect his novel?
Either way to Mr. Sleepy, this 100,000 was worth distributing no matter how it was spread.
Additionally, there were so viewers of the stream from ng Fan or Mr. Sleepy’s follower base who were willing to spend thousands if not millions on gifting the host or the author simply for the joy of it, especially when Mr. Sleepy cos from such an affluent family.
When they planned this, ng Fan had thought about taking this opportunity to complete [Wealth Distribution Cherub], so he suggested to Mr.Sleepy that he had so gifts too so he would pay for half, however, he was imdiately rejected by Mr. Sleepy’s statent of “Who are you looking down on?”
Of course, Mr. Sleepy had also ntioned he rejected ng Fan’s contribution not because his family owned coal, but because ng Fan had provided the platform already, which could compensate for his 100,000.
ng Fan listened to this and gave up. He could distribute wealth whenever he pleased.
The lottery continued. When the collector count reached 150,000 on Penguin Animation Network, the rate of increase began to slow down.
At this ti, there were over 450,000 online users in the stream, creating a new record high for ng Fan’s channel.
450,000 online, 150,000 collectors—there must have been so otakus who collected the novel as well from the animation network’s platform. Let’s not ntion the quantity of these viewers—this kind of ration was already very extraordinary. It was unrealistic to expect a 1:1 ratio!
Seeing that the count had stopped increasing, the draws began to slow down as well. The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and ng Fan debated if he should work on his illustrations while he waited for the collectors or give out the remaining prizes in one go.
After all, he couldn’t just stare at the growth chart.
Chatting with the viewers didn’t seem as comfortable as drawing illustrations. Plus, he could gift the drawings to his netizens too.
At this ti, ng Fan saw the viewer count of the stream suddenly skyrocket.
In a blink, his view count increased from 450,000 to 500,000. Then 550,000 viewers, 580,000 viewers, 600,000 viewers… 700,000 viewers, and it was still growing!
Then, the live comnts all collectively said one statent.
“Ms. Bunny is making her rounds, present all your carrots!”
“Ms. Bunny is making her rounds, present all your carrots!”
“…”
Ms. Bunny?
ng Fan thought for a mont. Soone with the word Bunny in their na sounded too imposing. He could only think of one person; 8th stations biggest video ga strear, BunToothJi.
BunToothJi could be considered the number one female video ga strear on the 8th station. She was one of those female gars who was very good at the ga, could operate several different genres of gas, and her specialty was always streaming with a bunny mask on. No one has ever seen her appearance before, but the eyes that were exposed were very delightful to look at, beautifully large and round.
ng Fan had seen her live streams before, only he couldn’t think of any connection between him and her no matter how hard he tried. Could it be that she just happened to make her rounds at his channel?
These so-called ’rounds’ was a term these famous strears deed for when they were bored or had ti and wanted to take their viewers to visit soone else’s stream.
Generally speaking, it was more common for male strears to make rounds in female strears’ channels, as this was more interesting as well.
ng Fan was wondering as well when suddenly soone gifted a 1024 Gunpowder cannon. It ca with a ssage too.
“ng host, do you rember that night in Wuzhen?”
