Fortunately, within half an hour of starting the live stream, the number of viewers in the live stream room reached an astonishing number.
The staff behind Douyin were covered in sweat.
One hundred and fifty million!
I've never seen so many people online in all the time I've been with the company. If the server weren't so robust, it would have crashed long ago.
The top trending topics on other platforms are all about Shi Xing's live stream, including her giving away brand-name cosmetics and randomly selecting fans to receive gifts during her live stream.
People kept coming in, mostly because they were there to give luxury goods, and others just to watch the spectacle and see if the gifts were really being given.
Fortunately, it has already been delivered to another Gucci cosmetics counter.
As always, the sales assistant waited patiently, skillfully selecting from the various items on display.
Chu Xin performed her duties diligently during the shoot, and the dazzling array of makeup products were neatly arranged according to their functions and color schemes.
"Why didn't I see so many products when I went to the department store?"
"The way you asked that, it's obviously something you brought up specifically for Shi Xing."
"This is from a trending topic. I just wanted to ask if they're really giving these away?"
"You don't understand, do you? It's obvious you're not a fan of Mr. Shi. Isn't it common knowledge that Mr. Shi gives gifts to his fans?"
"Today, all the fans from that time are in for a treat."
Shi Xing followed the same procedure as before: "Twenty fans will be drawn for each of the following: lipstick, perfume, full set of makeup, and skincare products."
Tap the screen rapidly with your fingertips while saying the nickname of the person you tapped.
"These twenty will get lipsticks... these twenty will get perfume... these twenty will get a full set of makeup..."
The eighty netizens whose names were called were extremely excited, clicking the link, filling in their addresses, and noting what they had received.
The sales assistant had already learned about her operation through group messages and skillfully began packaging.
Meanwhile, another saleswoman brought Shi Xing a coffee.
Xu Bai just happened to open the bottled water he had brought and handed it to her.
The saleswoman seemed a little awkward, but Shi Xing took the coffee and took a sip: "Thank you, I was thirsty."
"Ms. Shi, you're too kind. It's what I should do."
Shi Xing didn't like drinking coffee that was too bitter. After taking a sip, she put down the cup and took the mineral water from Xu Bai's hand.
Kona Nigaei Water, produced in Hawaii, USA, is made from seawater that has been desalinated from one kilometer below sea level. It is said to be rich in marine minerals and has the effects of weight loss, skin beautification, and stress reduction. A bottle costs 2800.
Whether she loses weight or improves her skin, Shi Xing doesn't know, but she doesn't feel much about reducing stress.
The comments section was noisy:
"Mr. Shi is such a nice guy! He takes such good care of the ladies at the counter!"
"Am I the only one who noticed the interaction between Mr. Shi and Mr. Xu? It's so sweet."
"How much would all this stuff cost?"
"Is it really being given away for free?"
"With so many people in the live stream, how can giving away only a few spots be enough?"
"Is this just a publicity stunt? They say it's a giveaway, but it's all fake; they're just trying to get more views."
"They probably wanted to increase their brand awareness, so they came up with this method to attract traffic."
"Why don't those who say it's too little go and deliver it themselves? They're all here to get something for free and yet they're still complaining about this and that."
"Hilarious! How come someone's offering advice? If you don't believe me, then get lost. Why are you competing with us for a spot?"
"He posts comments faster than anyone else while talking."
"Compared to my review, it's Shark Arm. The entire mall was emptied out, and some people still said it was fake."
"Trying to gain traffic? Our CEO doesn't need that, okay? Besides, she herself is a source of traffic."
Occasionally glancing at the comments, Xu Bai noticed that a pair of beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
After kicking these people out, he set some keywords, and anyone who posted related words was blacklisted and kicked out of the live stream.
Instantly, the few scattered comments disappeared, and everyone's attention returned to the main topic.
While looting all the cosmetics brand stores downstairs, Shi Xing was preparing to move on to another location.
Today's main focus is on having a great time shopping.
Everyone says that money doesn't grow on trees, but so far the system has given her so much money that she's almost lost count. How is that any different from money growing on trees?
Moreover, the money she earns comes from these fans and the public, so what's wrong with giving back to her customers today?
She spends happily, everyone else is happy to receive, and they even get points—it's a win-win-win situation!
When they arrived at the jewelry store, the netizens' eyes lit up.
Does this mean that it's not just about giving cosmetics, but also about giving jewelry from luxury brands?
The next moment, Tokiyuki's words confirmed their thoughts.
"Now that we've finished browsing the cosmetics stores, it's time to move on to accessories."
As I approached the Bulgari store, the salesperson greeted me with a bright smile: "Welcome to Bulgari, Ms. Shi, please come in."
Inside the Bulgari display case, all the jewelry was neatly arranged, shimmering under the bright lights.
Shi Xing has all the styles here, from rings, necklaces, earrings, studs to bracelets and bangles; she is a VIP Black Card member of almost all the brands.
The shop assistant brought over tea, snacks, and drinks: "Ms. Shi, what would you like to see today?"
Shi Xing picked up the glass and took a sip.
With a light tap of her fingertip on the counter, she placed her phone, which was watching the live stream, on it and began to select people: "White mother-of-pearl fan-shaped necklace, a reborn fish, malachite, a small sun."
She found it troublesome to keep track of everything, so she asked the shop assistant to bring labels and put them on all the items on her counter.
The numbers from left to right are Arabic numerals.
The six or seven shop assistants were very quick; they had marked all the jewelry in less than ten minutes.
Chu Xin carefully photographed each one, and everyone saw the marked price.
"How much? Holy crap! A college student who's never paid attention to luxury goods is crying. A necklace costs 120,000?"
"They're going to give all these tagged items to us as a freebie? Holy crap, how much money is that?!"
"My goodness, that's incredibly generous!!"
"To be honest, if I were that rich, I wouldn't waste my money on a bunch of strangers."
"Me too."
"No wonder we're not rich!"
"But other wealthy people don't give gifts like that."
"That's why she's always special. Where do you think she got so many fans?"
"Yeah, other rich people don't have that many fans and that much fame."
"Moreover, they only show off how well they live and how rich they are on social media, but only Mr. Shi actually spends money on us in a substantial way."
"Don't you feel resentful or unfair?"
"I don't know about others, but I certainly don't. After all, I don't have a brilliant mind that can develop artificial eyes and holographic technology."
"That's right, she deserves to be so rich, and she's on the same side as us, the masses."
"All I know is that she did charity work, helped vulnerable groups, and restored my mother's sight at the lowest possible price. She deserved it."
The comments section took a strange turn, eventually evolving into a barrage of compliments and praise for Shi Xing.
