Chapter 1031: The Old Driver’s Taking the Wheel
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Snowy trusted Jin Er, and Jin Er trusted Blackie, but that did not an that Snowy trusted Blackie. After all, they were basically strangers, and it was very dangerous to just hop into a stranger’s car. The mont she got in the car, she quickly took out her mobile phone and said to Blackie, “Right, I’m actually a network anchor, and I find your experience of surviving in the wilderness to be very intriguing. I’m pretty interested in finding out what kind of dog you are going to choose, and I believe that my fans would also be very interested. Can I broadcast live throughout the process?”
Blackie was in a blur at first, but then he said, “Network anchor? Oh, I understand. Will I be in it then?”
“Of course, you’ll definitely be in it! After all, you’re the protagonist of today’s live broadcast!” Snowy replied.
“Then can you open the beauty function on your phone and make look whiter?” Blackie asked, half-jokingly.
Snowy laughed. “Sure!” She really admired Blackie’s courage of surviving alone in the wilderness, so she wanted to share his experiences with her fans. Another hidden purpose, however, was for self-protection. A heart of vigilance was indispensable. Under the eyes of tens of thousands of fans, even if Blackie had so weird ideas, he would think twice before acting.
Snowy quickly updated her Weibo and the public WeChat account, then sent out ssages and a new blog post to her followers. The content was very simple. It said, “Dudu! The old driver’s taking the wheel! Those sleeping, get up quickly! Those on the toilet, get off now! A sudden impromptu broadcast will be held today!”
The fans who got the news responded quickly. “Haha! The early bird gets the worm!”
“This early? I’m not prepared! I was about to go to sleep...”
“Sleep your mom! Get up and get high!”
“After suddenly receiving a ssage from Snowy, I got so excited I accidentally clamped off a record-breaking piece...”
“Be careful with that, you might get rectal prolapse!”
“Where is Snowy going to broadcast today?”
There were too many ssages, and Snowy was eager to start the live broadcast. She had no ti to reply to them one by one.
Blackie started the car, and while waiting for the security guard to open the gate, he curiously glanced at Snowy’s mobile phone and said, “In fact, the seniors of the wilderness survival community told that, if possible, they want to record so videos in the wild and upload them when I have the opportunity to. One reason they want to is so I can gather so fans, and another reason is to attract more attention to the cause. If I were to encounter any danger or accident in the wild, more people could co and help.”
Snowy nodded. “Yeah, I think that makes sense. You can also broadcast live!”
“The problem is that ordinary mobile phones basically have no signal in the wild, so I carry a satellite phone with at all tis. I’m able to make calls and send text ssages without any problem, but access to the Internet is basically nonexistent.” Blackie pulled out a mobile phone from his pocket, and it seed to be a few years behind the trending mobile phones. It looked boorish and was very military-styled. It looked just like a brick. Just by glancing at it, one knew that it was definitely sturdy and durable.
The thing was not sothing that could be afforded by ordinary people. The phone itself cost over tens of thousands of dollars, and the cost of calling and text ssaging was several tis more expensive than that of a normal bill. In the era where unlimited data plans were the norm, the cost for browsing the Internet with satellite phones was shocking. One gabyte of data usage was already tens of dollars, and the speed was very slow––not to ntion that it was limited to the most basic network access. To live broadcast was certainly not plausible.
Of course, the reason people bought satellite phones was for ergency usage in the wild, so the other additional features were optional to them.
“As for recording a video and uploading it to the video site...” Blackie laughed and said, “I have no intention of becoming an internet celebrity, and the purpose of going to the wilderness for survival is just for my own experience. To record a video during the experience... feels uncomfortable, and would definitely destroy the mood.”
Snowy thought about it and felt that his point was understandable.
If Blackie were to record his wilderness survival process and upload it on the Internet, he might just go viral. What could that give him? He was going into the wilderness for survival because he didn’t lack money, and was putting his own experience as the priority. That was a ga exclusively for the rich.
Blackie drove away from the villa area, and Snowy launched the live broadcast app. “Hello! Hello everyone! This is Snowy. Welco to my live broadcast room! Our slogan is, ‘Eat, drink, and be rry at Binhai City!’”
With her signature opening, fans who received the news poured into the live broadcast room. Although it was a Saturday morning, there were still quite a number of fans.
“As soon as I received the news that Snowy was going live, I rolled out of the rmaid’s live broadcast room. Please let wipe off the slobber from the screen first.”
“What! That can’t be true. I was just there! Why didn’t I see you?”
“In the rmaid’s live broadcast room the bullet screens are all hidden, so we can only silently lick our screens.”
The hardcore fans who were familiar with each other said their greetings to one another. The rmaid live broadcast room that they were talking about was a new network anchor on their platform. Snowy had also visited her live broadcast room after hearing about her, and after taking a look, all she could say was that her looks were really unmatchable. She couldn’t even be jealous of her. Although the anchor’s live broadcast skills were still quite immature––she would get into fights with the audience just because of a difference in opinion––everyone started out as an amateur. Even Snowy had tis when her live broadcast room was empty, so she was still very optimistic about the new network anchor.
Although Snowy was filming herself with the front cara, fans with sharp eyes were able to tell that she was sitting in a moving car, and it didn’t seem to be a taxi.
“Guess the car! Guess the car! Did Snowy take Didi cab today? Can anyone guess the model?”
“Sh*t! Guessing the car is so difficult! At least let us take a look at the dashboard and guess. We can only see a part of the headrest and half of the rear window. How are we supposed to guess?”
“Real fans can guess it by the paint finish!”
“Chubby Tiger, you’re making things difficult for !”
“From the perspective of the field of view, if it’s not an off-road, then it’s an SUV.”
“During the turn earlier, I think I saw a Harman Kardon sound system...”
“It looks like a luxury car... Is there really soone who would drive a luxurious car for Didi cab? It can’t be to go after girls, right?”
When Snowy noticed that they were having a good ti guessing the car, she deliberately tilted the phone to the left and right, allowing more clues for them.
“The full-size spare tire behind the car... It has to be an off-road vehicle.”
“I saw a three-button differential lock... Sh*t! It’s the new rcedes-Benz G, right?”
“I also think that it’s indeed the new rcedes-Benz G.”
“This car costs more than one million in China, right? Whose car did you get in, Snowy?”
The fans were in a complicated mood. For the first ti, everyone saw Snowy sitting in the passenger seat of a luxury car, so it was unavoidable for them to speculate. So people even suspected that Snowy had found a tall, rich, and handso boyfriend.
Snowy smiled and stopped with her mysterious act. She pointed the cara at Blackie, who was driving, and introduced him to the fans. “This is our special guest for today’s live broadcast. He’s a man that is passionate about individual wilderness survival. He doesn’t wish to be nad, so you guys can just address him as Blackie.”
