Chapter 50

Lin Yi was furious.

Chen Long’s two generous donations of a million each not only made him a headline news twice, but also earned him a recommendation from the YY official platform.

After all, there weren’t many streamers who could make money, and news headlines about million-dollar donations weren’t a daily occurrence.

Moreover, to make the headlines twice in a month was even more impressive.

The YY official recommendation meant that his live stream was placed in a prominent position, making it visible to all users, who could click to enter.

Thus, Lin Yi unexpectedly became popular.

In just one morning, his live stream’s popularity soared to ten thousand viewers, not counting those who left after a while.

However, most people were attracted by the clear picture quality, the immersive experience, and the novel live stream of "The Story of a Noble Family," and stayed.

The popularity was expected to continue rising.

In the end, it was the money that made him popular.

In the streaming industry, it was difficult to develop without shareholders or tycoons supporting you. Once you had their support, even the official platform would pay attention and recommend you.

After all, the official platform also aimed for profit. If you could bring profit to the platform, it would naturally give you appropriate recommendations.

Thus, Lin Yi settled in Shufangzhai, live streaming in the Forbidden City every day and interacting with Xiaoyan, Jin Suo, Zhiwei, Erkang, Ertai, and Wu A-ge.

This made his live streams more interesting and less monotonous.

Through the two headlines and the official recommendations, he had become well-known in the YY streaming community. Every day, his live stream attracted five to six thousand visitors, and during peak times, the number exceeded ten thousand.

This was the result of Lin Yi’s efforts. Although many visitors came in due to the recommendations and headlines, whether they stayed or not depended entirely on his own abilities.

Maintaining five to six thousand simultaneous viewers was already quite an achievement. He also owed a lot to the system-provided camera, which produced excellent footage.

The live stream’s income also increased steadily.

With five to six thousand simultaneous viewers, although most were there for entertainment, there were still some consumers. Every day, he received gifts from a hundred or eighty people, each contributing dozens of yuan, resulting in thousands of yuan in income.

An income of thousands of yuan per day was a high-paying job in the real world, equivalent to an ordinary person’s monthly salary.

Sometimes, he would encounter some big tycoons who would donate hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of yuan, making his daily income exceed ten thousand.

Chen Long also came a few times and donated many gifts.

Brother Long’s donations were always in the tens of thousands, keeping him at the top of Lin Yi’s “Weekly Contribution List.”

On a few occasions, some of Brother Long’s friends from his King account also came to watch the live stream and gave gifts, all in the tens of thousands, clearly showing they were not short of money.

In just two months, Lin Yi earned over two million yuan, with a monthly income of a million, making him a high-paying job in the YY streaming community.

Thus, he became popular.

His gold coins also increased from “4” to “37,” and were still growing.

However, in the past month, Lin Yi’s income had declined compared to the previous month.

This was not due to any other reason but because Xiaoyan, Zhiwei, Erkang, Ertai, and Wu A-ge had accompanied Emperor Qianlong on a private tour.

In other words, they had gone out to play.

Emperor Qianlong was a lover of private tours and had affairs everywhere, which is why there was Xia Yuhé by the Daming Lake.

During the private tour, Emperor Qianlong was accompanied by his trusted people, including Xiaoyan, Zhiwei, Erkang, Ertai, Wu A-ge, and ministers like Ji Xiaolan and Fu Lun.

Lin Yi and Jin Suo could only stay behind in Shufangzhai, watching helplessly.

Without Xiaoyan and the others, Lin Yi’s live stream lost much of its fun, and the popularity declined.

Even if the popularity declined, the live stream had to continue, and he couldn’t be shy about asking for gifts.

One day, as he was live streaming, Xiaoyan and Zhiwei returned.

Lin Yi thought to himself, after a month of traveling, the ladies finally returned. His live stream could be fun again.

The entire Shufangzhai became lively.

“Brother!” Xiaoyan happily hugged Lin Yi’s arm.

Lin Yi smiled and nodded. He noticed that Zhiwei’s face was pale. He immediately understood that Zhiwei had not escaped the knife.

During this private tour, Emperor Qianlong encountered an assassin, who was apparently a remnant of the Dacheng Sect. Zhiwei had taken a knife for him, nearly losing her life.

Xiaoyan chattered on, recounting the entire private tour in great detail.

The part about “Zhiwei saving Emperor Qianlong” was particularly vivid. She described the knife in Zhiwei’s chest as a long sword, and the blood as a river, making it sound more and more serious.

Jin Suo, Mingyue, Caihua, Xiaodengzi, and Xiaozhuozi were all wide-eyed and speechless.

Jin Suo, while listening, couldn’t stop crying, pulling Zhiwei and examining her from all angles.

Lin Yi listened with a smile, interacting with the viewers in the live stream, making faces.

The viewers were also discussing.

“Wow, Xiaoyan and Zhiwei are finally back. I can see my two goddesses again.”

“What did they do this month?”

“Read the previous comment. They went on a private tour with Emperor Qianlong.”

“Wow, a private tour? What a fuss. Do you really think it’s ‘The Story of a Noble Family’?”

“The two girls were gone for a month. I wonder what they did. They’re finally back.”

“Xiaoyan is still talking about the private tour as if it were real. I almost believed it.”

“Xiaoyan is really into it.”

“Now that the two girls are back from their ‘private tour,’ will Zhiwei recognize her father next?”

“Soon, very soon.”

“Sigh, such beautiful girls. If they recognized me as their father, I would definitely take good care of them.”

“The previous comment is really dirty.”

“Recently, I’ve been rewatching ‘The Story of a Noble Family.’ According to the plot, next, the chieftain Balabun will bring his princess Saiya to Beijing for a visit.”

“Saiya first falls for Erkang, then for the girl Ertai likes.”

“Yes, that’s her. I predict Ertai will have to pay a dowry.”

“Has the streamer chosen an actress for Saiya? Is she Chinese or from another ethnicity? Is she beautiful?”

“The streamer’s productions are always top-notch. The girl playing Saiya will definitely be great.”
