Chapter 227: Selling Goods Like This

How many artists, before participating in a program, have failed to confirm the questions the host would ask, only to be asked very private things by unscrupulous production teams?

Yan Xing'ai is still a newcomer; she must not fall for that kind of trick!

As soon as she asked this, the gazes of A Fu and Yan Xing'ai both turned toward her.

"What's with those looks? Isn't vigilance a good thing? I need to confirm what questions the Live Streamer will ask when the time comes."

Even professional hosts would do such things, let alone Live Streamers who value popularity more than their own lives.

Some Live Streamers will do anything to grab attention.

"Pardon my bluntness..." A Fu said calmly, "Lin Sui is more popular than her."

In other words, Lin Sui has no need to use such methods to chase clout.

Besides, Yan Xing'ai's popularity isn't even as high as Lin Sui's.

Come to think of it, her popularity was brought by Lin Sui in the first place.

If it weren't for Lin Sui taking a large group of fans to vote for Yan Xing'ai when the program started, she wouldn't have suddenly surged to first place and remained there steadily until now.

"Sister, don't worry, Sui Sui has her own sense of propriety," Yan Xing'ai also said.

The manager: "..."

It was her own fault, then.

Time flew by until evening, and Lin Sui's Live Streaming Room welcomed its first big star as a guest.

Tonight's Live Streaming will start an hour early and also end an hour late, which means it will be broadcast for a total of four hours.

The venue for Lin Sui's Live Streaming welcomed its largest crowd ever.

Yan Xing'ai's manager was present, A Fu was present, and there were also some assistants recording data.

Today, it wasn't just sitting in front of a computer with the camera shoved in their faces; instead, it was filmed by the professional photographer Feng Liu as a favor.

Lin Sui even organized some small segments for this event.

She wore Yan Xing'ai's support sign on her head and was the first to appear on camera, acting as the host.

First, she let Yan Xing'ai perform a song and dance from the program's theme to let the audience witness her strength.

With Feng Liu operating the camera on the side, there was no need to worry about the framing being inappropriate.

It was Yan Xing'ai's solo segment, and everyone else stepped out of the frame.

They crowded around the monitor to watch her performance.

The manager broke into a cold sweat for Yan Xing'ai.

This performance segment was something Lin Sui had come up with on the spot; it wasn't in the schedule A Fu had told her about during the day at all.

So, Yan Xing'ai was completely unprepared.

If it weren't for Yan Xing'ai's strong assurances that Lin Sui was a good person, she would have suspected that Lin Sui was doing it on purpose.

If Yan Xing'ai had no preparation at all and she still made her sing and dance in the Live Streaming Room, how was that any different from intentionally making someone look bad?

But looking at it now, Yan Xing'ai still had some real talent to have taken first place; even though she was suddenly asked to perform, she didn't forget a single dance move or lyric.

While the manager breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't help but look at Lin Sui, who was also watching the performance beside her.

Sensing her gaze, Lin Sui turned her head to look at her, seemingly asking with her eyes if something was the matter.

The manager withdrew her gaze and pretended nothing had happened.

Having seen countless people in the entertainment industry, she found she couldn't quite read Lin Sui.

The only thing she could remark upon was that Lin Sui was so beautiful.

It was a good thing Yan Xing'ai went for a cool style, otherwise, this Live Streaming session today would have been completely overshadowed by her beauty.

By then, who would be able to tell which one was the big star?

Even so, she was still very worried; she felt that after today's Live Streaming, what the audience would discuss most was still the issue of the two girls' appearances.

When two beautiful girls stand together, it is easy for them to be compared.

The manager's thoughts were in turmoil, but over there, Yan Xing'ai had already finished her performance.

Lin Sui held the microphone and walked forward; before she even appeared on camera, her loud voice resounded throughout the entire Live Streaming Room.

"Okok, thanks to my sister Ai for the wonderful performance! As expected of the number one on the program, she really has talent!"

The manager: "...?"

Wait a minute?

This loud voice—why does it vaguely feel like something is wrong?

She had already prepared herself for whether Lin Sui would secretly do something...

But hearing this voice that stirred up absolutely no desire... hmm...

"I actually hope Sui Sui can learn from me."

Yan Xing'ai had long forgotten the manager's warnings; after performing, she was completely hyped up.

She was here to have fun this time!

"Sui Sui is also very good at singing and dancing; this kind of thing shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

Lin Sui had already returned to the Live Streaming Room, "Are you actually challenging me in public? Unfortunately... this move is useless against me."

Yan Xing'ai: "Sui Sui~"

Unable to persuade Lin Sui herself, she turned to face the camera and started interacting directly with the audience in front of the screen.

"Family in the Live Streaming Room, is there anyone who wants to see Lin Sui learn that dance from me just now? Come on, type 1 if you want to see it."

Having watched Lin Sui's Live Streaming for so long, Yan Xing'ai could spout these scripts right off the bat.

The manager: "?"

She was no longer worried about who the big star was; she started worrying about who the Live Streamer was.

Lin Sui refused with a righteous expression, "No need to say more, don't even think about using this trick to drain my stamina; I have a mission to complete tonight!"

Yan Xing'ai: "Oh? What mission?"

Lin Sui pushed a pile of boxes beside her in front of the camera, "See these things?"

Yan Xing'ai: "I see them."

Lin Sui: "We need to sell them all out."

Yan Xing'ai: "Whoa, so many! And what happens after they're sold out?"

Lin Sui: "After they're sold out, you can go home, and I can get off work."

Yan Xing'ai: "Sigh~ isn't that just stating the obvious?"

The two of them went back and forth with one line after another.

While everyone was bewildered, they suddenly turned to the camera and bowed.

Lin Sui: "Thank you, a short bit that doesn't quite count as a crosstalk performance for everyone."

Everyone in the Live Streaming Room: "..."

"Okay, without further ado, let me see how many of Yan Xing'ai's fans have come to the Live Streaming Room today?"

Lin Sui turned serious in a second and leaned toward the computer to check the current number of online viewers.

A historical peak, over five hundred thousand online viewers.

How many of these were Yan Xing'ai's fans was unknown; after all, in this kind of Live Streaming Room, besides fans, there were quite a few marketing accounts and media outlets keeping an eye on things.

But the audience in the Live Streaming Room was very supportive, and the public chat was constantly flooded with '111', representing that everyone was her fan.

Lin Sui just blurted out, "Over five hundred thousand! Wow, Sister Ke'ai, you really are popular; your first Live Streaming session has over five hundred thousand fans coming to watch!"

Yan Xing'ai: "..."

It was so exaggerated that she felt embarrassed to admit it.

But since Lin Sui said it, she must have her reasons.

Yet she couldn't admit it, otherwise, if someone clipped it out, it would look like she was shameless.

Yan Xing'ai was still thinking about how to respond to Lin Sui's words when, the next second, her neck was suddenly hooked by Lin Sui, and a roll of paper was pressed against her neck.

Lin Sui had "taken her hostage."

This was different from the process she had received from A Fu!

Lin Sui hooked her with one hand and pointed the roll of paper at the camera with the other, "Listen up, the five hundred thousand people online in the Live Streaming Room, your idol has already been taken hostage by me. If you want her to walk out of the Live Streaming Room alive, buy all the rolls of paper in my hand, otherwise..."

Everyone: "..."

Selling goods like this... is it really okay?
