Chapter 2: Speak with Strength



Just do it!

Lin Yike quickly packed up her things, took the birthday present Zhao Siru had given her, and resolutely left home, but she didn't forget to leave a note: "Mom and Dad, I'm leaving. I'm going out there to make a name for myself. From now on, I'll pay back my brother's debt!"

Despite the lofty ambitions written on the note, Lin Yike did not walk far. Instead, he turned around and sneaked into Zhao Siru's house.

Best friend Zhao Siru also has another identity, that is, Lin Yike’s childhood sweetheart.

I remember seeing a sentence like this before, "My wish in elementary school was to sit at the same table with the person I liked, my wish in junior high school was to be in the same class with the person I liked, my wish in high school was to be in the same school with the person I liked, and my wish in college was to be in the same city with the person I liked." The older you get, the further you drift away from the person you love.

But Zhao Siru and Lin Yike were exceptions. I don't know if it was because their auras were too similar or the teacher had a sharp eye, but no matter how they behaved in school or how their grades fluctuated, they were always assigned to the same class, and they sat at the desks in front and behind each other.

Perhaps it was because time had passed, the two of them went from quarreling when they first met to being good friends who could talk about anything, and as a result, the two families also started to interact with each other.

The news that Lin Yike's tuition was misappropriated was also told to Zhao Siru by Lin Yike's parents. At the same time, they were too busy to handle everything and begged Zhao Siru to comfort Lin Yike, which led to the scene at the beginning.

Seeing Zhao Siru opened the door for him in her pajamas, Lin Yike laughed even more flatteringly: "Well, thank you for the birthday present!"

Zhao Siru rolled her eyes. They'd been best friends for over a decade, and even if she coughed, she'd know she was thirsty or hungry. And then there was the thought of hiding here after another argument with her family. Zhao Siru made way for Lin Yike and said sarcastically, "Well, you came all this way to say thank you? Oh, and you even brought a suitcase with you? Is that a return gift for me?"

"Hehe," Lin Yike said without hesitation, and hurried into the house, "You've run away from home again! But I'm short of money, so I can only run away to your place! What's the matter, uncle is not at home?"

"Oh, don't mention it. Their company has a new big boss. It is said that he is the son of the boss of the headquarters and the prince of Kangyuan International. Before that boss showed up, he called my dad over and said he wanted to report on his work!" Zhao Siru shrugged while helping Lin Yike carry his luggage.

"How is it? Have you read the registration form? Fill it out quickly. My dad said that it will only be in the next two days. If you delay any longer, you won't be able to get a number!" Zhao Siru skillfully helped Lin Yike pack his things while supervising Lin Yike filling out the form.

As soon as she finished filling it out, Zhao Siru quickly sent it to her father. "Okay, my dad said that as long as he confirms that you've indeed made it to the Asian rankings, he'll take care of the rest for you!"

"Really? Then please thank my uncle for me first!" Lin Yike blinked and thanked him sincerely.

"Tsk, virtue, don't you see who made this suggestion!" Zhao Siru waved her hand, brushing off Lin Yike's approaching face. "Then let me tell you about the basic situation of their company first!"

Hearing this, Lin Yike hurriedly stopped, fumbled for his pen and notebook, and acted like a model student listening attentively, "Okay, start talking!"

"Oh, sure. Regardless of the outcome, your attitude has me smitten," Zhao Siru said, clearing her throat with a more confident air than a university professor. She continued, "Their company, Orange Live, is the current leader in the livestreaming industry. Everyone who does livestreaming wants to go to Orange Live! It's not that the company is that powerful, it's mainly because Kangyuan International is behind it. But that's all you need to know! Let's talk about your contract."

"Yeah, got it. Kang-Yuan-International." Lin Yike repeated as he wrote it down in his little notebook.

"The project you're participating in is a new one they just proposed. I forgot what it was called, but that's not important. What's important is that this time the project owner is cultivating new anchors themselves, and there are generous referral rewards and other things. It's most suitable for newcomers like you, but they're afraid that if you gain popularity, you'll become arrogant and switch jobs, so the penalty for breach of contract is high. But as long as you stick with it, you should have no problem making it there!"

Zhao Siru thought for a moment and said, "Oh, by the way, you don't have to worry about not having a computer or other equipment. Tiancheng is very wealthy and has a villa in the new district. There are unified computers there, all top-notch, and you can also stay there! The benefits are great!"

Lin Yike's eyes lit up when he heard this. Indeed, the benefits of Orange TV were very suitable for people like him who ran away from home. "Then when can I go to work? Also, how long will the live broadcast last? How will it be broadcast? What should I say during the live broadcast? What should I pay attention to?"

Lin Yike asked a series of questions at once. Zhao Siru knew she knew nothing about the livestreaming industry and was nervous, so she consoled her, "You'll be informed of the specific working hours by the official. How long you broadcast depends on your mood, but it seems to be 200 hours a month, which averages out to seven hours a day. However, the newcomers I know are very hardworking and can broadcast for up to twelve hours a day. As for what they say on the livestreams, just watch some of them these next couple of days and learn more. I'm still a layman and can't help you much!"

"Twelve hours?!" Lin Yike couldn't help but exclaimed, thinking that she had just finished the national college entrance examination and was going to Peace Elite to prepare for the college entrance examination.

Zhao Siru waved her hand nonchalantly. "Why panic? We'll talk about it later. You'll do what you can anyway. Maybe before you even play two games, a big boss will shower you with gifts. It's definitely better than working so hard, walking around the streets, handing out flyers, shoulder to shoulder!" Zhao Siru knew this situation would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but she still encouraged Lin Yike enthusiastically. Little did she know her nonsense would come true, as Lin Yike was showered with gifts worth 30,000 RNB on his first day. Of course, that's all for later.

Lin Yike's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but remind him: "Sister, this is not the way to use the phrase 'shoulder to shoulder'."

"Oh, that's not important. What's important is that if you don't try, how do you know you can't do it!" Zhao Siru raised her eyebrows, looking like if you dare to retreat, I'll call you a coward.

Lin Yike's concern wasn't that she couldn't broadcast for that long, but that she wouldn't be able to speak well and the audience would be left in a slump. However, things would work out in time, and besides, she loved gaming, so a job that allowed her to have fun and earn money at the same time couldn't be more suitable for her!

Lin Yike nodded and decided to walk on this road until the end.

Zhao Siru watched Lin Yike enthusiastically downloading Tiancheng and imitating the anchor's words. Suddenly, she sighed, "Actually, I'm quite worried about you. You're a girl hanging out on a gaming channel. Even if you have real talent, you can't stop people from making fun of you. Otherwise, you should just go for a comedic style to avoid the annoying sarcasm from the viewers."

"It's okay!" Lin Yike watched the live broadcast for a while and already knew what "water friends" meant. They were fans who watched you during your live broadcast, but in the live broadcast circle, they had a different name for it. "Dad likes to speak with strength!"
