Lin Xiaozhe gained both fame and fortune for his anti-fraud efforts, but in doing so, he inadvertently offended many platforms.
On the third day after Mu Xian'er was sent to prison, Lin Xiaozhe watched some clips of her in the interrogation room with his viewers in his live stream.
These were all deliberately leaked by the police.
"I regret it so much!"
Mu Xian'er sat on the chair of regret, wiping away her tears.
What do you regret?
The police officer's voice was cold and serious.
Mu Xian'er fell silent. Her biggest regret was offending Lin Xiaozhe.
Although her live streaming business wasn't doing very well, she could easily earn hundreds of thousands of yuan a month, making her a top-tier streamer. But now it's all over; she heard that all her accounts on other platforms have been banned.
Now, let alone earning hundreds of thousands a month, she'd be starving if she went out.
I feel extremely regretful now.
She knew that Lin Xiaozhe intended to give her first place.
It's all my fault for being too arrogant and reckless in pursuit of traffic and popularity. I was retaliated against by Lin Xiaozhe and now I have nothing left.
[That was awesome!]
[Serves them right, this kind of streamer deserves it.]
[You think you can mess with Young Master Lin? Even Chairman Chen has to call him "brother," understand?]
Lin Xiaozhe was just about to switch to another project when the live stream went black.
"This live stream has been banned for allegedly violating regulations. The specific time for unbanning it is yet to be determined."
Lin Xiaozhe: "???"
[Super admin, holy crap!]
[What are you doing, admin?]
[They even dared to ban Lin Shao's live stream. Even if it was a joke, you're still out of a job.]
[How dare the super admin be so bold? Probably a hidden fan of the series; I've lost my nerve.]
Lin Xiaozhe sensed something was wrong. The super moderator had banned his live stream without even giving him a heads-up. This wasn't a rectification; it was a direct ban. Normally, the super moderators wouldn't interfere unless he went too far.
What's going on?
Lin Xiaozhe contacted the administrator in charge of his task.
"What's going on? They must have sealed off the wrong site."
"Brother Lin, don't blame me. I didn't seal it off. It was an order from above."
"What?" Lin Xiaozhe was a little confused, but after thinking about it carefully, he could roughly understand. It was probably because he had driven down too many of the top Dou Niu streamers, and Dou Niu was getting impatient and wanted to ban him to get rid of the problem.
"Since that's the case, I'll take my talent to D-Station. It just so happens that my bullfighting contract is expiring, and bullfighting's behavior is disgusting. I still remember the time they secretly dug up dirt on me, so I'm definitely leaving."
Lin Xiaozhe was making plans in his mind.
Logically speaking, a streamer of his caliber, with top-tier traffic and popularity across the entire internet, should be receiving contracts from major platforms the moment he opens his mouth.
Lin Xiaozhe took out his phone and selected a person named "General Manager Chen of D Station".
Mr. Chen would contact him whenever he had free time, asking when he was going to switch jobs, and even saying he would take him to the headquarters of D Station to meet Chairman Xu.
"Mr. Chen, hello, my bullfighting contract is about to expire."
The other party didn't reply.
Five minutes later, a message finally arrived.
"Oh, it's Lin Da, the streamer. You want to go to D-site?"
"Let's take a look at the contract. If it's suitable, we'll go. We're also in contact with Douyin and Gouya." Lin Xiaozhe planned to raise his price; he wasn't stupid.
However, Mr. Chen said, "Then you should look at the others first. Recently, D-Station is facing a tight budget. As you know, our revenue this quarter has been terrible, so we don't have enough money to sign big streamers. I'm afraid we can't offer Mr. Lin a satisfactory contract."
A big question mark appeared on Lin Xiaozhe's forehead.
What's going on?
Why is Mr. Chen, who was always so enthusiastic towards me, so cold today?
D-Station recently secured funding and has been buying up all sorts of copyrights like crazy. They just spent tens of millions to poach several singers, so why don't they have the money to sign their own artists? Something's not right; there's something fishy going on.
Lin Xiaozhe was unconvinced and contacted the heads of several other companies, but they all hesitated and seemed unwelcoming.
Lin Xiaozhe realized that he might be being boycotted by these platforms.
Lin Xiaozhe logged into each of the major platforms, and sure enough, all the accounts were banned on various fabricated charges.
"Wow, they actually dared to block me. You probably don't know this, but I'm now the largest shareholder on major platforms and I have 51% of the voting rights."
Lin Xiaozhe was furious. He made a decision: all the high-ranking officials who supported banning him would be dismissed later.
At this moment, a chat group called "Internet Platform Big Shots Chat Group" was bustling with activity.
This group consists of founders or current chairmen of major video platforms.
“My subordinate just said that Lin Xiaozhe wanted to sign a contract with D-Station, but he was fooled by a few words. Now he wants to do live streaming? No way.” - Xu Yiqun from D-Station.
"Yes, that's how it should be. We can't let him get attention. Many streamers are feeling uneasy right now. Lin Xiaozhe's ban is a good thing." Douyin's Lu Daming gave it a big thumbs up.
"If Lin Xiaozhe backs down and says he won't fight fraud anymore, I'll let him off the hook and let him continue broadcasting other things. He's just a small-time streamer, and I, the chairman, don't want to stoop to his level. But if he's stubborn and doesn't listen, then forget about broadcasting for even a minute longer," Chen Ming of Dou Niu said angrily.
"Lin Xiaozhe probably never dreamed that he could ride the wave of the Niu Le Grand Ceremony to gain a lot of traffic, but he just disappeared, haha." Gouya Dong Fei said with a smile.
"Just a small-time streamer. If we hadn't ignored them, whether they'd be forgotten or not would have been a matter of a few words. Who does he think he is, the embodiment of justice? He's more of a joke." Dou Niu Chen Ming scoffed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ming sent him a screenshot, which Lin Xiaozhe had sent him.
The message was about an account being banned.
