Chapter 75 Eating

She looked at the boss who was already waiting in the game room, and cheekily opened the game microphone to ask him a question.

"Boss, boss, did I sing well?"

The bosses who got on the bus were very sincere, and all they said was "It sounds good, it sounds good."

Unexpectedly, An Jin turned around and bragged about what the bosses had said to the live chat.

"See? The bosses all say I sing well. Look at you guys, compared to the bosses, you're a bit less musically talented, huh?"

The question marks in the comments flew incredibly fast, almost breaking through the screen and hitting An Jin's head.

The business owners on the bus also lived in Bengbu. They were furious at An Jin's provocative words in the earpiece.

People who are despicable will be punished by Heaven.

An Jin stopped her boss from tormenting her, and the recording team immediately edited up all of An Jin's outrageous actions.

The next day, which was Saturday.

An Jin woke up from her afternoon nap and started a live broadcast.

She opened the live stream, obediently greeted the viewers in the chat, and then began to explain today's live stream schedule.

"Yeah, there's a streamer competition this afternoon, so I won't be bringing the boss."

“Scrimmage? We’re not playing scrims today, but I’ll play some Spirit Ranking with Brother Wang and the others later to get a feel for the game.”

"What are we doing now? Nothing, just chatting with you guys."

"I don't want to play PK. Losing will upset me all day and affect my performance at night."

"Sure, I'll show you the slices."

An Jin opened the Tadpole Video homepage and typed her name into the search box.

Tadpole Video focuses on big data. When An Jin searched for herself, the first page on her computer screen, besides her own account, showed clips that had just been released last night and this morning.

An Jin laughed as soon as she saw it, and looked at the camera: "You really want to see it?"

Yesterday, when she was singing, these comments were so loud they were deafening. When she looked at them today, she realized that these clips were all from yesterday.

The viewers in the live chat were silent for a moment.

Whoever suggested watching the cutaway footage, drag them out and behead them! (Roaring)

...It wasn't me.

What to do then? Just grit your teeth and watch it. I watched a lot of clips last night with my microphone off, and the comments section was really interesting.

An Jin believed it and opened the comments section of the video.

The top comment was: "You sang terribly, Baozi (smiles)."

The next most popular comment was...

The streamer is treating his viewers like they're Japanese.

What did we netizens do wrong to deserve this? (crying)

The teacher is clearly very good-looking, so what are people saying in the comments section?

It sounds really good; it's a singing livestreamer that's quite suitable for deaf people.

Seeing how venomous the comments are makes me feel relieved.

How can such a pretty girl sing so badly...?

An Jin had excellent eyesight; she scanned the negative comments in the comment section in a few seconds, then casually closed the Tadpole homepage.

The viewers in the live chat looked puzzled.

Why is it off? Is the streamer suffering from Parkinson's?

Did you accidentally click on it?

An Jin calmly said, "Let's go see if anyone's on YY (a Chinese voice chat platform)."

After saying that, she opened YY (a Chinese voice chat platform).

Comments: ?

Did I promise to go on YY?

Haha, the streamer is getting anxious.

Who said they were going to YY! The streamer got anxious when they saw all the negative reviews, huh!

An Jin ignored her.

She has a sense of shame, you know.

When it comes to montage, the comments sections are often all pretty much the same. She's not a masochist, so naturally she doesn't like being tortured.

Everyone else in YY was there except for An Jin. They had already entered the game. An Jin didn't act like an outsider at all. She clicked into Jiang Jinhan's live stream to check it out. She watched them play the game with her microphone off and commented on their gameplay.

The viewers in the live stream were completely mesmerized.

Hey streamer, are you Piggy Girl?!

Don't talk badly about others behind their backs!

Oh no, I think their live stream chat is going to explode.

An Jin couldn't stream her practice matches with the team, so even though people in An Jin's stream knew that her team was working well together, most viewers were still worried that the team members might be too sensitive.

A streamer as prominent as An Jin needs to be extra careful about her online words.

There are a lot of trolls and gossips online, and it's easy to get carried away if you're not careful.

An Jin explained to the viewers in the live chat: "Don't worry, the bread man won't mind."

They've heard even the harshest things during practice matches.

After the Breadman and his companions emerged from the game and An Jin entered the game, the worried viewers in the live chat finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To avoid revealing the tactics, An Jin didn't play support during the match; instead, she excitedly went to play jungle.

The cripple, whose jungler position was taken, went to play support. He chose a cat and attached himself to Jiang Jinhan. Looking at the question marks sent by the viewers who entered the live stream one after another, he couldn't help but laugh.

Jiang Jinhan said she didn't think it was a big deal, since she would bring both male and female cats anyway, so it didn't matter.

After Breadman solo-killed the enemy mid laner, he reminded Anjin in the upper jungle: "Their jungler is in the top, An'an, be careful."

An Jin's eyes were full of wild monsters, and she nodded, "Okay, I won't catch them."

The top laner, Pipa, immediately spoke up: "Am I under pressure again this game?"

An Jin didn't answer immediately, but after thinking about it carefully for a while, she replied, "Then I'll help you catch it later."

Pipa believed it.

An Jin was caught thirteen minutes into the game.

Pipa, seeing her vanished minion wave and opponent, screamed, "What the hell are you doing in the top lane?!"

An Jin said with a grin, "I'll catch it for you."

Pipa screamed, "You might as well not have come! My minion wave!"

An Jin chuckled, glanced at the 200 game coins she had when she arrived and the 1300 she had left, and continued farming.

The bread man teased the pipa player, "Still want the jungler to gank for you, pipa?"

Pipa returned to the city in tears, saying as she went, "I kind of miss the cripple's jungle gameplay."

Fortunately, the ending was good; they destroyed the enemy's high ground in just twenty minutes.

The group played until 6 p.m. before finishing their spiritual match. Some rested, some ate, and they waited for the streamer competition to start in an hour and a half.

The broadcasting competition starts at 7:30.

An Jin sat in front of the computer, holding a bowl, and finished eating her meal while watching the game.

Her team's matches were all scheduled for later in the game, so she wasn't in a hurry at all. While other teams were frantically preparing to go on stage, she was still eating.

The official live stream has started.

The official random order of appearances was quite interesting; the two teams in the opening match had virtually no popular players, mostly second- or third-tier streamers.

Normally, there are about a thousand people in the live stream.

The match was very boring; both sides played very conservatively, and the game dragged on for more than thirty minutes, making viewers want to fall asleep.

In the next three games, I used the tortoise strategy, which was based on the idea that I would rather do nothing than make a mistake.

Not only did An Jin find it boring, but the viewers watching the live stream also found it boring.

They were desperately looking for some entertainment. If they really wanted to see a drawn-out match, there were plenty of major tournaments and professional players to watch, so they watched streamer matches just to have some fun. But all of them were slow, drawn-out games, which the viewers found unbearable.

"Everyone get ready, it'll be our turn soon..."

A stranger's voice broke the silence of the room.

An Jin took a deep breath: "It's my turn to hit."

After saying goodbye to the audience, she ended the live stream to prepare for the next match.

————

On the other side.

Suddenly, over 100,000 viewers flooded into the official live stream.

After seeing the abnormal data in the live stream, the director asked the back-end team in the group chat if the platform had pushed the stream again.

After receiving a negative answer from the backstage team, the director asked, puzzled, "Then how come there are suddenly so many more people?"

Keep in mind that there were only a little over 100,000 viewers in the live stream before.

He mentioned it in the work group chat, and then went about his business.

Just then, the previous two teams finished their match, and the commentators were saying polite things. Only after the process of the previous match was completely over did the two commentators perk up and start introducing the two new teams.

"I believe the two teams we're going to face next are teams that the audience is really looking forward to."

"Indeed, the next two teams to compete are Team Jiang Jinhan, led by Captain Jiang, and Team Li Ping, led by Captain Li Ping, with their 'Hairline' and 'Me' teams..."

After the two male commentators finished introducing the team members of the two teams in a call-and-response style, they started to tell a joke.

"So, Lao Zhao, which team do you think has a better chance?"

"If that's what you're asking me, I can only say that both teams have players I really like, and I have high hopes for both of them."

"Haha, to be honest, me too. Captain Li and Captain Jiang are both players on the same team. One plays the bottom lane and the other plays the mid lane. If we only look at the two captains, it's really hard to say who will win."

"Oh? What do you mean? Do you have any inside information?"

"Let me keep you in suspense for now. Let's take a look at the introductions of the two players before we continue."

"Okay, next up on screen is Captain Jiang's team: Top laner Oily Pipa, Mid laner Bread Man, Jungler Rushing to Kick Good Leg, ADC Jiang Jinhan, and Support An An Can't Sleep..."

"The contestants are adjusting their equipment. Lao Zhao, you've been keeping us in suspense for so long, it's time to tell the audience."

Old Zhao: "Hey, this brings us to the scrims. Old Zhou, have you watched any scrims between these two teams?"

Old Zhou nodded: "Of course..."

The two chatted about the training matches, emphasizing the players who had performed exceptionally well on both sides.

Jiang Jinhan's team was naturally led by An Jin, while Li Ping's team had a top laner.

Old Zhao: "Speaking of which, Jiang's support player An'an has been very popular on our platform lately. Old Zhou, what do you think An'an's performance will be like in the streamer competition?"

Old Zhou laughed and said mysteriously, "I think it will scare everyone."

Old Zhao: "Oh? What do you mean?"

Old Zhou: "I don't need to say more, the game has started the ban and pick phase. Let's follow the director to the arena and see how An'an, this new streamer, performs."

Old Zhao: "Okay!"

After both sides finished their bans and picks, the official live stream chat exploded with comments.

Upon receiving a prompt from the backstage director, the two commentators immediately stepped in to smooth things over.

Old Zhao: "Old Zhou, just as you predicted, Jiang's ban and pick strategy was indeed a bit aggressive."

Old Zhou: "Yes, but I didn't expect their team to choose other support heroes for An'an. As we all know, An'an hasn't been playing League of Legends for very long. As a new streamer, she didn't choose her best hero in the game, but instead chose a support hero she had just practiced for the team. That takes a lot of courage."

Old Zhao: "Looking at this ban/pick, it seems like Jiang is going to focus on the bottom jungle. I wonder if veteran Pipa can hold on."

Old Zhou: "Oh? How come you're already on Jiang's side right at the start of the game?"

Old Zhao laughed and said, "Well, I just hope that Captain Jiang and Bread can go further. They're both familiar faces in our commentary, so naturally I'm a little biased towards them."

Old Zhou: "The game has started. Let's see where we're positioned... Hmm?"

Old Zhao leaned forward slightly and chuckled, "Team Jiang's positioning is a bit aggressive. Is he trying to invade the enemy jungle?"

Old Zhou frowned: "Captain Li's support position is a bit dangerous. Captain Jiang is determined to fight to the bitter end!"

"With Li's mid laner and ADC moving in, can they save their team's support?"

Old Zhao: "What a pity! Let's congratulate Team Jiang on getting the first kill of this game."

Old Zhou: "Jiang Jinhan still got the kill. It's going to be tough for Captain Li's bottom lane this game."

Old Zhao nodded: "It's really going to be tougher. Jiang's support player, An'an, has a pretty strong offensive style. Once she finds an opening, we're done for."

"Li's top lane play is pretty impressive. Look how he's been pressing Jiang's pipa (a type of Chinese zither) – he's already accumulating experience from level one."

"Hahaha, the new generation is truly impressive."

"Damn it, is the cripple's positioning a trap?"

"Yes! But Captain Li's jungler hasn't arrived yet, the cripple made his move! Captain Li's jungler is still on his way!"

"This is a real problem. Pipa got the gold from this kill, so she can get through the early laning phase smoothly."

"Jiang's top and bottom lanes have both reported good news. The game time is now four minutes, and the kill score is 2:0..."

"Jiang's training matches were not in vain. The cripple's sudden gank on the top lane completely caught Li's jungler off guard."

"Yes, Jiang's scrims have always revolved around the bottom lane. Li's jungler probably didn't expect the top lane to be ganked and was caught off guard."

"Jiang Jinhan has returned to the city. Li's bottom lane is having a tough time. By the time Jiang Jinhan leaves the base, his first complete item will be finished."

"So, Captain Li wants to capture the middle?"

Will the bread man be able to spot it?

"Breadman spotted them and retreated to the tower! An'an is also heading towards mid lane. Should Captain Li continue ganking mid?"

"Captain Li is still going to make arrests!"

"It's not easy for Team Jiang to fight two against three."

"Breadman's been killed! Congratulations, Captain Li, for getting the kill! Captain Jiang's jungler, the cripple, is on his way. Can An'an stop him?"

"Q arrived! Li Ping was kept behind!"

"The cripple arrived and secured the kill on Captain Li's mid laner. Captain Li's jungler and support started to run away in different directions. Should the cripple chase after them?"

"Keep chasing! Captain Li's support has been caught! But Captain Li's ADC is also heading towards the jungle. Can he save his support?"

"They couldn't save him! Jiang Jinhan has arrived too."
