"Wait here a second—now I get why you've suddenly beco so diligent this past week. Feeding grapes, keeping warm at night…"
Alex chuckled. He gave it a thought—Sekiro was officially launching tomorrow.
Letting Sarah play it today would help hype the release and boost her streaming career. That worked for him.
"Alright, if that's what you want." Alex nodded in agreent.
"Yay! Thank you, Alex!" Sarah instantly lit up with excitent. She hugged his face and kissed his cheek before turning around and bolting from the room.
"I need to post a quick teaser—maybe tonight's stream will set a new record for viewership!"
"Hey! Don't stop massaging my shoulders!" Alex called after her. "You're just gonna leave after getting what you wanted?"
"Ohhh, fine!" Sarah turned back with a grin and obediently resud massaging his shoulders and legs.
Alex was stunned—he'd never seen Sarah this obedient. She must really want that exclusive gaplay stream.
"You know," Alex said after a while, enjoying the pampering, "you're a top-tier strear earning tens of millions a year. Having you give a massage feels kind of wrong."
"No way! It's my honor to massage Alex!" Sarah bead.
For so reason, two words flashed in Alex's mind: simp behavior...
Ahem. No, he couldn't label his friend like that.
"You can stop now. I'll set up the ga for you." Alex offered.
"Okay!" Sarah agreed, barely hiding her excitent.
A few minutes later, she posted on social dia:
"It's finally happening! I'll be streaming the Sekiro premiere tonight at 8PM—don't miss it!"
While fans were hyped, many were also surprised.
"I was wondering if Sarah would get early access to Sekiro…"
"Only Sarah gets this kind of treatnt. She's the only strear who can play every New World ga in advance!"
"I'm really curious about her relationship with the devs. Is it what we all suspect?"
"When's the wedding between you and the old thief?"
"Haha, can't wait to see!"
In less than ten minutes, Sarah's post shot to the top of trending. These days, the trending list felt like Alex's personal playground—he could get on it whenever he wanted. Even celebrity gossip didn't stand a chance.
Sarah smiled at the excited replies, though she noticed more and more people speculating about her relationship with Alex. He was famously low-profile, and she didn't feel it was her place to clarify.
Let them guess. It's not hurting anyone, she thought.
Right then, she got a call from the Douyu platform. The foreign streaming giant "Mouse TV" had reached out—they wanted the rights to co-broadcast her stream!
Sarah was stunned—and thrilled.
At this point, she wasn't just the top host on Douyu; she was arguably the top female strear in the entire country. Her new contract had skyrocketed her value. She was getting sponsorships, endorsents, even invitations from film and television studios.
And now Mouse TV—currently the world's largest streaming platform—wanted her stream?
Normally, it was other platforms begging to get content from Mouse TV, not the other way around.
"They must've heard I'm premiering Sekiro," Sarah mused. She knew they weren't here for her—they were here for the ga.
Still, it was a golden opportunity to expand her overseas audience.
She quickly negotiated with Mouse TV, and the deal was signed smoothly. Then she asked Alex to help her post the announcent on Twitter.
At the ti, foreign players weren't familiar with Sarah as a strear—only so Chinese fans abroad recognized her.
But once they heard Sekiro would premiere live, nobody cared who the strear was.
If you can stream the unreleased ga, you're automatically a great strear.
Within minutes, Sarah's follower count on Mouse TV skyrocketed.
8:00 PM, sharp.
Sarah sat down in front of her computer, checked the backend analytics, and gasped.
The real-ti viewer count had already surpassed 5 million—and it was still climbing!
"Holy crap! This is even crazier than the Deep Sea Trek premiere!"
She couldn't believe it. "More than five million, and that's actual viewers—not so inflated fan value stat!"
Even A-list celebrities rarely pulled these kinds of numbers.
Sarah knew this was thanks to the hype built by Silent Hill and Deep Sea Trek, which had made [New World] a household na worldwide.
Plus, this was the first ti anyone got exclusive early access to a [New World] title—sothing not even the last premiere had.
She opened her Mouse TV stream window and was stunned again—over 3 million viewers were watching from abroad!
And impressively, the platform had even assigned a live translator to the room to help international audiences understand her comntary..
