The mall is still the same old mall. The first floor is full of bottles and jars of water, air, and the like, while the second floor has all kinds of printed food products.
"Is anyone home?" Li Lechen asked tentatively.
There was no response.
"Hey~~~~"
Li Lechen called out again into the empty mall. Still, there was no response.
"I want to buy something, is there anyone to help me?"
A deathly silence.
Is it too early and the noisy sales assistants haven't gotten up yet?
Do intelligent robots need rest? Since the mall is open, how can there be no sales staff? Is this sales staff throwing a tantrum again?
"I sell diamonds, do you want some?"
Li Lechen tried to entice the salesperson, but found that he still couldn't get the salesperson to come out.
It seems there really is no one to greet them.
Since no one will assist you, why not try buying it yourself?
Let's focus our attention on a clothing store.
The various styles of clothes hanging in the store had a similar overall aesthetic to those of today, though they appeared slightly more serious and the colors were on the cooler side, but they were still perfectly acceptable.
I chose a white short-sleeved t-shirt.
Clicking on it revealed that I could choose to "try it on," so I clicked it.
Then I saw a mirror in front of me, and there I was, standing in the mirror, already wearing that white short-sleeved t-shirt.
But obviously, the person in the mirror isn't the real person, because they're still lying in bed.
A very good virtual shopping experience.
However, even now, this method is something that will be achievable in the near future. It's just that experiencing it ahead of time feels rather subtle.
The style is elegant and the size is standard. As someone who doesn't have high requirements for clothing, Li Lechen is very satisfied.
I checked the price, and it's very affordable, only 5 coins per piece.
Click "Buy".
Huh? Why isn't it responding?
Click "Buy" again.
Still no response!
"Hey you!" Li Lechen shouted, "Where's the smart assistant?"
There was no response.
What's going on? Has the live streaming platform been censored? Because it's spreading vulgar content?
If that's really the case, why was I even able to get in? Shouldn't the first thing you see when you open the app be "Amazing China"?
Or has the future world collapsed? A Big Bang? Humans and robots all died in an instant?
This made Li Lechen very panicked, because he was about to go to the elite class, and before he even got there, his cheat system suddenly stopped working. How could he have fun then?
Exit now and go to the live stream list.
The list is still there, and after refreshing it, I found that the data is still changing in real time.
The live streaming platform is being censored!
I randomly clicked on a live stream and entered.
"Welcome 'Chasing the Wind Boys' to Nini's live stream! Nini will be singing a special song for 'Chasing the Wind Boys'..."
The female streamer in the live stream got excited as soon as she saw the notification that someone had entered.
Who is Chasing the Wind Boy? He's a legendary whale in the exclusive zone! If he takes a liking to you, he'll shower you with tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of coins in a single donation.
I used to envy and be jealous of the big spenders who visited other live streams, but I never thought I would be so lucky today.
This is an opportunity we must seize!
The host sang energetically, pausing after a few lines to ask Li Lechen if he liked it.
Waiting for the super-rich man's red envelope
I thought that wealthy people didn't like streamers at all.
But the streamer did sing quite well, almost as good as the "Dream Angel" from the immigrant community.
Now you have to pay to hear "Dream Angel" sing again, Anqu is just awesome.
Wherever the super-rich spenders go in the exclusive zone, the streamers there become popular. It looks like those streamers are about to become rich.
I really envy the streamer
When will the big spenders in the exclusive zone come to my live stream? They can even just send a random comment.
"Thank you so much, sir! Thank you, 'Chasing the Wind Boy'! What song would you like? Nini will sing it for you." The streamer was so excited she couldn't contain herself. Even though Li Lechen hadn't given her a single reward, she already felt like she was about to become rich.
"brush--"
A top-tier user, "Chasing the Wind Boy," tipped the streamer with Sunshine Coins.
Li Lechen casually made a donation of 100,000.
No problem!
Then I typed in a comment, ready to talk about the red envelope.
After entering the command and sending it, a message popped up: You have been banned from speaking.
Banned from speaking? What's going on? This is my first time entering this streamer's live stream, and I've never said a word before. How could I be banned?
Or is it...?
Li Lechen quickly exited and entered another live stream.
I won't be giving any tips this time; I'll just type in my comment and click send.
You have been banned from speaking.
This message popped up again.
You've been banned from speaking!
I've been banned from speaking online!
Realizing something was amiss, I re-entered Nini's live stream and went to the red envelope section. Since less than five minutes had passed, the ten red envelopes generated from the 100,000 coins tip were still there.
Click "Claim".
You are prohibited from receiving red envelopes.
Another ban? Even receiving red envelopes is no longer allowed.
Li Lechen quickly exited the app and clicked to enter his own live stream room to try it out.
Sure enough, the message popped up.
You are banned from live streaming.
The situation is becoming clearer. I don't know what happened, but my permissions on this platform have been locked: I can't live stream, I can't speak, I can't shop, I can't receive red envelopes, and I can't do anything except watch other people's live streams and give them tips.
But if that's the case, the platform would be practically useless to him. After all, after browsing through so many live streams, Li Lechen had discovered that most of the popular live streams on the platform were those featuring singing and dancing. He guessed that those who actually had a skill in modern terms were all left without income because no one was paying attention, and they were eventually banished to the polluted area.
However, he can't sell anything now, let alone get free viewing tickets for the contaminated area to spend money to save them.
Furthermore, with limited funds in the account, there's no live streaming or product sales, resulting in no income. Without income, the money naturally dwindles as time goes on.
What exactly happened?
Just then, a banner advertisement came across in front of me.
Li Lechen had seen this kind of banner advertisement before; Guo Xiaoming had also used it when advertising his jam and fruit shop.
The advertisement content is as follows:
"XiShuaShua" is all-knowing and all-powerful! Whatever you want or want to know, "XiShuaShua" can help you achieve it. For details, please click "Master XiShuaShua".
Can I open it?
Li Lechen certainly wanted to give it a try.
This is what led to Huo Jiujian's live stream.
“Wind Chaser, check your personal email in a bit. I’ll request a one-on-one video chat with you,” Huo Jiujian said directly.
Li Lechen could only nod, since he couldn't send any comments anyway.
It seems that Huo Jiujian is indeed a man of this line of work. He is observant and perceptive, not only fully aware of his current predicament but also seemingly having a way to help him resolve it.
It's good that there's a solution.
Soon, Li Lechen and Huo Jiujian entered a one-on-one video chat mode.
Li Lechen thought he would finally see the true face of this "Master Xishuashua," but he found that the other party only showed him his back.
