Chapter 377 - 220: Why Is This Guy Here?
"He’s finally live!"
"I’ve been waiting forever! It’s not easy getting to hear his music!"
"Fifty thousand people waiting for him to go live. That’s insane."
"..."
As the stream went live, Chen Jincheng could see the viewer count climbing rapidly.
His followers had gotten the notification and were flooding in. The viewer count shot up at a rate you could practically see with the naked eye, quickly surpassing 100,000.
The speed was astounding.
Chen Jincheng wanted to thank Master Yu all over again. If his rival hadn’t generated so much buzz for him, his numbers couldn’t possibly have climbed this quickly.
"Hello, everyone. I’m Chen Jincheng..." Chen Jincheng quickly began to chat with his audience.
He wasn’t going to release the song until the viewer count peaked, of course.
As he chatted, the number of viewers in his stream continued to grow steadily. Then, suddenly, he saw from the backend data that the growth rate had exploded once more. He knew Tiao Yin had started the SS-Class stream promotion.
This promotion pushed for ten million total views, with a guaranteed increase of at least 100,000 concurrent viewers. Of course, if the stream itself was engaging, that number could multiply several times over.
Chen Jincheng felt that with all the current hype, he could try to push for 400,000 or even 500,000 concurrent viewers.
In an era without view-bots, numbers like these were absolutely top-tier.
He felt he really needed to thank Master Yu again. An SS-Class stream promotion alone would never have generated this much hype.
As the stream went on, the viewer count in Chen Jincheng’s room quickly surpassed 200,000.
In the control center, Sister Hong was naturally monitoring Chen Jincheng’s stream data. Seeing how fast the viewer count was climbing, she knew the boss could break another personal best record tonight.
Little Maru was watching from behind Sister Hong, along with a few other girls who had snuck over to see what was happening.
They all knew the boss would be raiding their channels later that night, so they were naturally curious about his stream’s numbers. But to hit over 200,000 viewers in such a short time was incredible.
’How many viewers will he have by the end?’
’When he raids our channels later with so many people, it would be amazing if even a fraction of them stayed. We usually only get a little over a hundred viewers a day.’
One of the girls subconsciously pulled her collar down a little.
Sister Hong and her group weren’t the only ones watching the data. Master Yu was also secretly watching from a side account. He wanted to see the quality of the original song Chen Jincheng was releasing today. He also planned to be the first to find flaws, attack it, and showcase his own professionalism.
But just looking at the viewer count in Chen Jincheng’s stream, his expression soured. ’Over 200,000... How does his stream have so many people? My personal best for concurrent viewers was only 30,000.’
’Her boss’s assistant wanted to tell him that Chen Jincheng was a master at creating buzz. And besides, he was genuinely talented. From a woman’s perspective, her boss really couldn’t compare. He wasn’t as handsome as Chen Jincheng, his dancing wasn’t as good, and while he may have released more songs, the numbers for Chen Jincheng’s single track, "Can’t Help Falling in Love," were absolutely terrifying.’
But she couldn’t possibly say any of that to her boss’s face. She could only offer a placating excuse. "Boss, it’s because you two aren’t in the same league. You’re a celebrity; you don’t spend all day stirring up hype on Tiao Yin. Chen Jincheng is different. He’s an internet influencer, so he’s on Tiao Yin all the time. It’s only natural he’d have more sustained popularity there."
"If he were on any other platform, or in an offline event, his popularity wouldn’t even come close to yours."
Hearing this, Master Yu nodded. "Yes, you have a point."
The assistant was speechless.
Master Yu continued to stare at Chen Jincheng’s stream, but a gift that suddenly scrolled by made him pause. ’He’s here to join the spectacle too?’
The gift was from an old acquaintance. Ever since the incident with Xiaomao, Master Yu had been nothing but a backdrop for him for a long, long time.
Chen Jincheng was also taken aback when he saw the sudden gift.
’What’s he doing here?!’
