Chapter 50: Stepping Over to Rise

The moment Mr. Hai's video dropped, it shot straight to the top of the trending searches.

The appraisal centers Mr. Hai listed in his follow-up videos were all extremely well-known.

Right after that, the official authorities of the three eastern provinces also produced solid evidence and directly crushed streamer Da Yu for good.

They broadcast the enforcement live, and people watched with their own eyes as one small workshop after another was taken down, one illegal factory after another was shut.

Then streamer Da Yu was personally escorted away.

Someone spread rumors online, claiming this was a frame-up orchestrated by Ms. Wenya and Liu Yue.

They were then sued.

Ms. Wenya posted a video.

In the video, she sat on the sofa in an elegant outfit and said calmly, "I didn't respond before because I knew she was about to run out of luck."

"As for why I didn't warn her — if you're going to make money, you have to be prepared to pay the price of making money."

"I'm a businesswoman, a decisive one. I don't mind stepping over her corpse to climb to the top."

"Everyone, her selling craze is over. Now it's the turn of our Hao Ya Media and Yue Mo Media."

"Next, I'll show you our three eastern provinces specialty products."

"You're welcome to come and expose any fakes."

The moment Ms. Wenya's beautiful figure, confident words, and ruthless tone came out, she instantly gained countless fans.

On this day, streamer Da Yu was completely banned, and the person was taken away.

On this very same day, Hao Ya Media and Yue Mo Media stepped over streamer Da Yu to rise to the top, and all kinds of three eastern provinces specialty products flew off the shelves.

Inside dance streamer Teacher Qin's live room:

"Family, family! We're not dancing today — we're selling goods."

"The corn we're selling is from Yangyang Food Factory."

"Why are we selling from their factory? Because among the corn they purchase, there's some from my second uncle's family."

"What? I have to do a Shake the Sun dance?"

"No problem, no problem — consider it done."

Full-time PK female streamer Sixty-Six Thirty-Six's live room:

"Dear family, I'm selling corn noodles."

"This corn noodles — you can take them to any appraisal center you want."

"Because my dad and my mom both work at this very factory."

Looks-streamer Huohuo Auntie:

"Family, family! Whether I get to sit at the main table when I go home this year all depends on you."

"This potato noodle — sure, it has a bit of additive, but it's absolutely made from potatoes."

"It's goods from my hometown."

"Hold on, let me take a call."

"Family, my grandpa said as long as the sales are good and we do a good deed, I'll be the number one person of this generation in the family genealogy."

Gaming streamer Mid Lane Number One:

"Brothers, brothers! Ten years of gaming and I've made tens of millions, but my family never once acknowledged me."

"Now the chance to be acknowledged is right in front of me — you think I can chicken out?"

"Enough talk, I'm putting it on the little yellow cart — you guys buy."

"What? You need me to dance?"

"No problem, no problem."

Fitness streamer Hu Ge:

"Family, as long as you're willing to buy, I'll do anything you ask?"

"A thousand push-ups?"

"No problem, I'll do them right now."

"Don't ask me why — just ask and you'll hear that my grandpa said the family genealogy is being revised this year, and he's giving me my own page."

Xiao Bai, Lan Lan, and Li Zi's live room.

Lan Lan cooked frantically while Xiao Bai and Li Zi ate like crazy.

"Family, please buy, please buy — the dried sweet potatoes include some from our advisor's family."

"She said if we can't sell them, we're looking at delayed graduation this year."

"Boo-hoo, we don't want delayed graduation."

Shen Mo's live room:

"Sell goods? I'm the boss — what goods would I sell?"

"Earn pin money?"

"Hilarious. You think I need that little bit of pin money? My wife just sent me two million."

"You're asking what I did in this whole incident?"

"Accompanying my wife on business trips everywhere, bringing her water when she's thirsty, bringing her food when she's hungry — does that count as work?"

"That's all I did."

"After all, my abilities are pretty mediocre."

"Oh, this friend is asking — does my wife really not look down on me? And why don't I work harder?"

"Actually, this question is very simple. I provide my wife with emotional value."

"In marriage, you have to provide either emotion or material — one of the two."

"Otherwise, why get married?"

"Oh, this friend is asking whether my wife and I are going to hold another wedding?"

"That's a great question. I'm planning to marry again and hold another wedding."

Shen Mo's frank and straightforward answer satisfied many gossip-hungry netizens.

Hao Ya Media and Yue Mo Media's livestream that day was also crisp and clean.

It didn't set any livestreaming miracle, because Liu Yue's pricing wasn't low.

But this also meant Hao Ya Media and Yue Mo Media had officially entered the product-promotion world.

Liu Yue also posted a video that made everyone collectively hate her.

"I'm going to train a professional anti-counterfeit streamer next. The whole point is to ride the traffic."

"Any other product-promotion streamer, any product-promotion platform — the moment you sell fakes, I'll report you on the spot."

"This is dirty business tactics."

How to put this behavior? It made a lot of streamers curse up a storm, while on the surface they had to keep saying, "Big shot, well done! Big shot, you're amazing!"

Just very aggrieved.

The livestream room's "family" members, meanwhile, were overjoyed.

Just pretty entertaining.

And for the first time, 【I】 realized business wars are this absurd — just wait for others to make mistakes, then step on them to climb up.

Not long after, a business tycoon was asked about this during an interview.

The tycoon said with a smile, business wars — there's nothing excessive about them. Basically the most effective ones: slashing electric scooter seats, pulling the power switch, swapping out dishes, privately arranging fights. Just that simple.

Things like acquiring shares and digging project pits from novels — those exist too, but none of them beat honestly doing business and waiting for your opponent to slip up.

Because the tycoon surnamed Lei said with a grin, if you've got time to scheme against others, you might as well cut your own costs, optimize your own plans and strategies, then wait for your competitors to become idiots and step on them to climb up — that's simpler and easier.

Then the tycoon gave an example of a certain milk-powder brand.

When every other milk powder was found to be substandard, the only one that passed flew straight up.

Instantly the darling of the times, soaring skyward, never stopping.

Way more satisfying than a price war.

When other product-promotion streamers were successively hit with anti-counterfeit exposés, tax audits, and all kinds of scandals, Hao Ya Media and Yue Mo Media quietly rose to prominence.

Under Liu Yue's leadership.

During this period, Shen Mo stayed by Liu Yue's side the whole time, bringing her tea and water, easing the double pressure on her body and mind.

Occasionally filming videos, but never taking a single advertisement.

That day, Shen Mo was to accompany Liu Yue back to Jinghai City to attend a wealthy family's reunion banquet.

Shen Mo was thrilled — in his whole life he'd actually run into something this exciting, a real-and-fake heiress drama.

Originally Shen Mo didn't have to go, but who could blame him when that fake heiress was friends with Liu Yue — and pretty good friends at that.

Shen Mo heard from Liu Yue that the returned true heiress was also amazing — a very talented girl whose romance novels sold extremely well.

【Wonder if there'll be a situation where the real and fake heiress scheme against each other.】

【Just thinking about it feels awesome.】
