Chapter 283: Insurance

On July 19th, Miss Luo Quan's anniversary album 'I'm Coming' was officially released.

Including previous pre-orders, it sold 3.92 million copies in Japan within twelve hours, 830,000 copies domestically, 770,000 copies in South Korea, and 940,000 copies in other regions.

For a newcomer who has just debuted for a year, this result can be said to be quite good, and it is also very rare on a global scale.

However, compared to Miss Luo Quan's previous achievements, this data can only be said to be barely acceptable.

Of course, these are just somewhat pretentious words; she herself was still quite satisfied.

In the internet age, she is probably the only singer who can still achieve this data on the first day for physical records.

In fact, many singers have now completely abandoned the physical record market and started focusing on digital albums, and the results are remarkable.

Mainly because digital albums only need a mobile phone, and you can verify the goods online. Clicking a few times with your fingers is enough to receive and listen to them; it's too convenient.

Nowadays, physical records have almost no advantages compared to digital albums, except for a commemorative significance.

And Miss Luo Quan, who can still break records with physical records in such an environment, has unprecedented influence. As for whether anyone can replicate it later, that's hard to say; perhaps "each generation has its own talents."

In short, Miss Luo Quan's new album achieved proud results and naturally hit the hot search. Everyone, whether they knew her or not, inside or outside the circle, came to the comment section to express their congratulations.

However, Miss Luo Quan herself hadn't looked at Weibo for quite a while.

She used to say that anyone who uses Weibo is a dog, although in the end, forced by work, she truly "smelled good" (a meme about changing one's stance).

But anyway, her favorability toward Weibo had never recovered. She wouldn't use it if she didn't have to, and she would post updates on Bilibili or Twitter.

Today, the records sold well, which was worth celebrating. Miss Luo Quan ordered a big meal in the evening and livestreamed at the same time.

Not long after, the big meal was delivered. The hotel waiter pushed in a three-tier dining cart.

The viewers watching the livestream thought it would be some big meal, but when they opened it, they found that the big meal Miss Luo Quan ordered was hot pot.

The first tier was an induction cooker and hot pot base, and the second and third tiers were dipping sauces and a dazzling array of side dishes.

A thermal lunch box hung in front of the cart, and various tableware were behind it.

The waiter placed all the equipment neatly for Miss Luo Quan, plugged it in, told her some precautions, and then left.

Miss Luo Quan pulled her phone closer to the induction cooker and rubbed her hands: "Since I'm in Yuzhou, how can I not eat a hot pot? Let's taste what the hot pot made by this five-star hotel is like, and how it differs from those old-fashioned shops on the street."

Saying this, she aimed the camera at the induction cooker.

Miss Luo Quan chose a mandarin duck pot, half tomato pork rib soup base, and half spicy red oil soup base.

"I chose heavy spice for this red soup!" Just mentioning this spiciness, Miss Luo Quan felt her saliva secreting non-stop.

Miss Luo Quan generally doesn't eat much spice, but as long as it's hot pot or spicy hot pot, she must order heavy spicy red soup.

Red soup without this level of spiciness has no soul. It's a pity she can't drink alcohol anymore, but the effect of iced cola is not much different.

Seeing this gradually boiling mandarin duck pot, the chat immediately started scrolling:

"Seeing this color, my stomach has started to spasm."

"I don't even dare to touch the mild spice of Yuzhou hot pot."

"Is there a difference between mild spice and heavy spice in Yuzhou?"

"Miss Luo Quan's taste is so heavy?"

"After this pot, I'm afraid the streamer's chrysanthemum won't be saved."

"It's okay, Yuzhou's anorectal department is the best in the country."

Miss Luo Quan mixed the sesame oil and various seasonings and smiled, saying: "Don't look at how red this soup is, actually hot pot really isn't particularly spicy, provided you must dip it in oil; the more you dip, the more comfortable the taste."

"I believe your ghost."

"Last time I took a plane to Yuzhou to play, when I came back, I lay on the sleeper train the whole time.................."

"But this color looks really delicious."

"I can smell the fragrance through the screen."

"Reasonably speaking, Yuzhou hot pot is spicy, but when you eat it, the pleasure is also real."

There are those who can't eat spice, and naturally there are those who can't eat spice. It's rare for a delicacy not to have polarization.

Just like tofu pudding, some people like sweet tofu pudding, some people like salty tofu pudding.

Miss Luo Quan herself prefers salty tofu pudding, and she eats hot pot quite spicy.

Between talking and laughing, the soup base had been boiled by the induction cooker. In the red soup, a bubble rolled on the dark red oil, and bright red chili peppers rose and fell in the boiling soup, heat carrying a warm fragrance spreading throughout the room.

Miss Luo Quan hurriedly opened the window for ventilation. If she ate with the window closed, it wouldn't be long before the whole room smelled of hot pot base, and this room wouldn't be livable.

According to convention, first put in meat slices, ham sausages, crispy sausages, etc.

Although Miss Luo Quan has a heavy taste, the side dishes she eats are quite ordinary. Many people like duck intestines, fish, chicken hearts, etc., but Miss Luo Quan basically doesn't touch these.

Various meat slices were processed very thinly by the hotel, and Miss Luo Quan picked them up in less than a minute.

She swirled them a few times in the seasoning bowl, wrapped them in fine green onions and garlic, and stuffed them into her mouth.

"Hmm, not bad." Miss Luo Quan nodded with satisfaction.

Eating hot pot, the most refreshing thing is the feeling of oil and spice colliding in the mouth. Swallowing it into the stomach is like swallowing a ball of fire into the stomach.

The strong spice stimulated Miss Luo Quan's lips and tongue, and her hot blood surged up instantly. Miss Luo Quan's face also became as red as a chili pepper.

"Spice is actually not a taste, but a feeling. It stimulates the nerves in the mouth, making you feel pain, so spice actually acts on pain. Drinking water can't relieve the pain." Miss Luo Quan didn't forget to popularize science while eating, drank a sip of iced cola, and added: "But iced drinks can relieve the spicy taste."

Burping, sweat had already emerged from the tip of her nose and forehead. Miss Luo Quan wiped it with a tissue and continued to eat.

"Is it really not spicy? Your face is so red."

"Visible spiciness, it's just that since spice is pain, it shows Miss Luo Quan can endure it."

"Yuzhou person special skill?"

"There are still some Yuzhou people who can't eat spice."

"Minority, I studied in Yuzhou, I haven't seen many dishes in the school cafeteria that don't have chili."

Miss Luo Quan, who was eating happily, had no mind to interact with the chat anymore and just ate her own food.

Anyway, Bilibili netizens like to watch her livestream, no matter what she does, they like to watch. She suspects that if she livestreamed while sleeping, the number of people wouldn't be less than usual.

Although she loves hot pot, Miss Luo Quan's appetite isn't particularly large.

She ate half of each of the single-serving side dishes prepared by the hotel, and also ate one-third of the rice.

The induction cooker had been turned off, and the oil soup in the mandarin duck pot slowly solidified in the hot wind of the high-rise building. After wiping her mouth, Miss Luo Quan threw off her slippers without any image and lay horizontally on the sofa.

Although this is bad for the stomach, she didn't have the mood to stand up and walk two steps now.

"What kind of habit is this, lying down after eating? Aren't you afraid of getting fat!"

"Your figure will go out of shape like this, hey."

"Maintaining this state until school starts, I'm afraid you'll gain twenty pounds!"

"Very curious what Miss Luo Quan looks like after gaining twenty pounds."

"Don't worry, she'll still be a goddess."

Miss Luo Quan turned her head to look at the chat on her phone and laughed: "I usually exercise, but today I'm too full, so it's not suitable to move anymore."

Miss Luo Quan remembered her weight was 105, and at her height of 173, gaining another 5 pounds was still within the controllable range, but it might make her chest look too big then.

Some things aren't the bigger the better; destroying the overall proportion would be very detrimental to aesthetics.

Thinking about it, Miss Luo Quan still turned over and climbed up: "Don't worry, everyone, I eat hot pot occasionally, I won't get fat."

She knew everyone was afraid that she would get fat and affect her appearance. After all, one fat ruins everything; many female stars' appearance really plummeted like jumping off a building after getting fat.

Although she can still be called slim now, she can't be so unscrupulous.

At this time last year, she was only 90 pounds, and now she is already 105. This shows that her body is not the type that doesn't get fat. If she doesn't manage it, she might really be in danger of getting fat.

"The livestream ends here today, see you tomorrow morning." Miss Luo Quan contacted the hotel waiter to come up and clean up, then turned off the livestream.

Waking up the next day, Miss Luo Quan originally thought she would have a few pimples on her face. After eating hot pot so spicy and oily last night, someone with a worse constitution would have been full of pimples long ago.

But what surprised her was that there was only one small red dot on her face, right between her eyebrows.

Miss Luo Quan touched it lightly with her hand; it didn't hurt or itch.

Finding no impact, Miss Luo Quan didn't care about it, planning to squeeze it directly after it turned white.

Turning on the livestream, the audience who wanted to see her full of pimples was disappointed:

"That's it?"

"This pimple is too small."

"How does it look like a cinnabar mole?"

"When others get pimples, it lowers their appearance; how come when it's Miss Luo Quan, she actually becomes more beautiful?"

"Maybe this is the lucky one favored by God."

"I'm sour, I just ate a few pieces of fat meat last night, and I had several more pimples on my face when I woke up this morning............"

Miss Luo Quan laughed: "Haha, come to think of it, this is the first time I've had one in a year. It seems I have to pay attention in the future."

"Miss Luo Quan, how do you view Christine's sky-high insurance?"

"This is today's big melon abroad, everyone is discussing this."

"You should express your opinion too."

Miss Luo Quan saw these messages and opened the Weibo hot search: "What sky-high insurance?"

On the tenth hot search was what the viewers said: Christine sky-high insurance.

Christine is a very young American singer-songwriter, very talented, has won three Grammys, and before Miss Luo Quan appeared, her album sales were always crushing a group of young American singers.

What she is most worth praising, besides her songs, is her height of 1.8 meters and her long legs of 1.08 meters. The year before last, she also won the reputation of the world's most beautiful long legs. Every time she appeared on the red carpet, she was the target of cameras.

Among so many famous singers in the United States, there are quite a few big names who have invited songs from Miss Luo Quan, and Christine is one of the few who has never mentioned it.

Probably because of the pride of being a talented woman, or perhaps jealousy of her appearance being suppressed, in short, Christine and Miss Luo Quan had never had any interaction.

However, she was quite attentive to Gao Liang, often tweeting to promote Gao Liang's new works.

And this time on the hot search, it was because Christine took out an insurance policy worth 50 million US dollars for her long legs—over 300 million RMB!

It's not a new thing for stars to insure their bodies, and some stars insure parts that are quite outrageous, but it's very rare for someone like Christine to insure so much.

For a time, everyone was very surprised. Not only was there a lot of discussion on Twitter, but it also hit the hot search domestically.

Christine is a top-tier among top-tiers in the United States, and she also has quite a few fans in China.

When Miss Luo Quan first became popular, the two were often compared, but as Miss Luo Quan's works continued to update, no one continued to compare them.

This time Christine's insurance hit the hot search, and there were quite a lot of discussions domestically. Not only Weibo, but Some Zhihu also had related questions.

Although it had nothing to do with her, since the viewers mentioned it, she could also express her own views:

"Regarding this matter, people have money, so it's nothing to take out insurance for their legs, after all, they are such beautiful legs. And for her, 50 million US dollars shouldn't be much."

Chat:

"What about you? Don't you insure this face?"

"Yeah, this is the most beautiful human certified by the Guinness World Records!"

"Indeed, even if a small pimple appears, it's a huge loss!"

"Suggest taking out 100 million US dollars of insurance, otherwise I won't be at ease."

Speaking of this Guinness-certified most beautiful human, Miss Luo Quan was actually quite speechless.

Many of this organization's world-first certifications are quite speechless. It was probably two months ago that Guinness sent people to conduct street random surveys all over the world.

They showed passersby the appearances of all the women left in history and let them vote for the most beautiful in their minds.

In the end, Miss Luo Quan won first place with a voting rate as high as 82 percent, obtaining the authoritative certification of the most beautiful human.

However, most people, including herself, treated it as a gimmick or a joke.

Everyone has their own standards for beauty. This kind of forced representation of everyone is actually very easy to cause resentment.

Even if she is really that beautiful, there must be someone in their minds who has a better answer. The consequence of doing this is losing passerby favor.

So when Guinness sent her the certificate, she didn't accept it, and by the way, tweeted that the most beautiful woman in the world is her mother, suggesting they send the certificate to her mother.

The result was that Miss Luo Quan won applause with her high emotional intelligence, but this certification was not canceled.

Now that they were talking about this, Miss Luo Quan rubbed her face and said: "It's better to buy some good nutrition with that money. Besides, is this face of mine only worth 100 million US dollars?" ===== CHAPTER 284 =====
