CSGO Unboxing Streamer: A Charity-Driven Tycoon

Chapter 182 My DIY skills are still pretty good!
As the saying goes, it only takes a mouth to spread rumors.

Debunking rumors is exhausting.

Using online trolls to incite conflict between Lu Yiming's fans and Tencent is just the beginning; since last night, negative information about Lu Yiming has been appearing online continuously.

They seized on his overly high profile online.

They're promoting the idea that his livestream content is increasing class conflict.

However, since he was recently praised by official media, most of the posts are from marketing accounts with tens of thousands of followers.

These accounts don't have many followers.

However, the quantity is too large.

Normally.

Most livestreamers can only choose to avoid the onslaught of online trolls.

PDD is one of the best examples.

The reason is that responding to such low-cost rumors will only escalate the hype. In this era of profiting from tragedy, most people don't care about the truth; they simply follow what they believe to be true.

However, this kind of perception can be misled.

Therefore, to avoid this situation, we can only let time prove it, or let time cool things down, and then respond at a suitable time.

of course.

Alternatively, you can choose to face hard steel.

Doing this can generate a lot of buzz, but afterwards you'll face questions from netizens who will question whether you're just trying to gain attention.

In fact, it doesn't matter which choice you make.

For the person who is willing to spend the cost to smear you.

Both are acceptable.

Besides these two solutions, another option is to use the law to protect yourself, but this method is extremely costly.

They spent a million to spread rumors.

You might need to spend tens of millions to deal with even part of the impact of this one million.

This is also due to cost issues.

Generally speaking, those who are targeted by malicious attacks usually choose to punish the more serious offenders and let the less serious ones go.

However, it is extremely difficult to bring a criminal charge against someone.

Lu Yiming had previously spared no expense in dealing with rumors, but after spending several million, he only managed to have a hundred or so people detained for a few days and fined a few hundred yuan according to the Public Security Administration Punishment Law.

The only person to be imprisoned was because of their stupidity.

Everyone else is a certain streamer.

He used Lu Yiming's name directly.

However, it was also because of his good attitude in admitting his guilt.

He was given a suspended sentence.

This is also why these marketing accounts and small-scale online trolls dare to take money and do things without restraint.

at this time.

Cao Siyun explained the situation online to Lu Yiming in detail.

Waiting for his response.

Lu Yiming also thought about it for a long time before responding.

"Take one, take one! No cost whatsoever!"

Although it may be another ten thousand or so gone.

But Lu Yiming felt it was well worth it.

We cannot allow spreading rumors to go unpunished.

Although this might not affect the people behind the scenes, Lu Yiming wanted to let those lackeys who were paid to do things know that his money wasn't so easy to earn.

What does "focus on the big picture and let go of the small details" mean?
He doesn't exist!
It's probably because Lu Yiming did it once before.

This time, the tasks were assigned to law firms in various locations.

The speed is much faster than before.

The process is simply to first collect evidence, then directly sue the platform, go through legal procedures to get the platform to cooperate in obtaining the personal information and IP address of the person spreading the rumors, and finally report the case to the local police station to enter the final stage of the process.

Simply resorting to the lawsuit platform can effectively remove rumors from the platform.

This can save more than half of the cost.

But Lu Yiming has already said that he will not consider the cost.

It's not just about making those who spread rumors pay the price; this process also needs to be accelerated, as efficient procedures are the most expensive part.

soon.

That same afternoon.

There are 157 small and medium-sized law firms nationwide.

A total of 500 individuals or groups were identified as spreading rumors.

That night.

These people have successively received lawyer's letters.

At this point, many people had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation, and some even dared to post online to joke that they had received a lawyer's letter.

In a broad sense, a lawyer's letter is a letter written by a lawyer to inform the other party that their actions have infringed upon certain rights or violated laws and regulations.

Either I sue you, or we can discuss how to settle this.

However, because celebrities nowadays frequently issue lawyer's letters, these letters have lost their deterrent effect in the eyes of netizens.

At this point, someone reminded the blogger.

Lu Yiming had previously sent over a hundred people in.

Perhaps the reminder had an effect.

The blogger then deleted the short essay he posted yesterday.

But this lawyer's letter is not just a routine, pointless statement from a celebrity.

The chain of evidence has been collected before it was released.

It's too late to delete it now.

Today is not the weekend.

But Lu Yiming wanted to celebrate Fu Xiaoli's birthday.

Therefore, I took a day off.

The next day was the weekend.

He started his live stream promptly at 8 p.m.

You can see people in the live chat talking about the various posts or videos from bloggers who have been crying and complaining today.

[Hilarious! A college student was crying and begging CEO Lu to let him go! Why didn't he cry when he was making money?!]

[President Lu really went all out this time! He must have cleaned up hundreds of rumor-mongers in one go? That must have cost millions!]

[Millions? You're kidding! The entire legal community was buzzing about it yesterday! President Lu invested 30 million! Yesterday it was 500 people! Today it's another 200! And that 30 million has only been spent about a third of it!]

[Haha! I heard! Apparently, Mr. Lu's investment was so large that some law firms got involved. Even interns could handle this litigation, allowing Mr. Lu to achieve the effect of over 60 million with only 30 million!]

To be honest, this is exactly how it should be done! These people spreading rumors are absolutely despicable!

[That feels good! I argued with a blogger until the early hours of the morning the day before yesterday. This guy used his power to delete posts and ban me to annoy me, and now he's deleted his account and run away!]

【.】

Lawyer fees are actually not expensive.

On average, the litigation costs for this kind of case are around ten thousand yuan, and that's because Lu Yiming wanted it to be done quickly.

Under normal market conditions, two thousand or so would be enough.

However, in that case, the case process would likely take at least a month.

This is not the effect Lu Yiming wanted.

at this time.

He has achieved the effect he wanted.

Thirty million!

This is the willingness to defend one's rights at any cost.

This can be described as a first on the entire internet.

He started the broadcast to face the viewers who were celebrating in the live chat.

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "Let's not talk about what happened online! Let bygones be bygones! I just want to do my best in my live stream."

That's an understatement.

But the more this is the case, the more people feel that Lu Yiming's methods are brilliant.

A swift and decisive counterattack against the rumors, followed by a low-key response during a live broadcast, would allow this incident to settle down smoothly.

It will not generate any new buzz.

However, just because he doesn't talk about it doesn't mean that his fans and netizens won't.

Throughout his live stream that day, the chat was filled with discussions about this.

Meanwhile, his actions have sparked widespread discussion online.

Some people say he did the right thing, while others say his approach was too extreme.

But no matter what.

The topic has been successfully steered towards this issue.

Meanwhile, the news of these people taking a walk was also "classified" as a rumor.

This is exactly what Lu Yiming wanted to achieve.

The live stream continued until the very end that night.

Lu Yiming posted a picture in the live stream.

"Hey guys! What do you think of this car?"

It's almost time for him to finish his broadcast.

Those still watching his live stream at this hour—calling them all die-hard fans might be an exaggeration, but they're definitely a major force supporting him. 270,000 viewers online.

This is when they gave their evaluation of the car.

[Aman refused: Um...is this Volkswagen's concept ATV? The green color scheme seems a bit off; it looks a bit like a garlic-shaped turtle vehicle?]

[Three Flowers Without Wind: What the hell is this garlic-shaped turtle cart?! But the more I look at it, the more it resembles one!]

[33284565: I suggest calling it "Green-headed Toad"!]

[Yanhuoshen: No wonder he's a shareholder! This car probably hasn't been released yet, right?]

【.】

The scrolling of comments is very fast.

"Garlic head turtle" was the most frequently seen phrase in the comments section for Lu Yiming.

at this time.

He shrugged and said, "Looks like you guys don't like it~ I was thinking of giving away two during the live stream every month!"

This is the gift that Fu Wentao prepared for Lu Yiming.

Today, we finally reached an agreement with the Douyin platform.

The viewers initially thought Lu Yiming was showing off his new car.

Upon hearing this, the sentiment in the live chat immediately shifted.

It was a truly unexpected and delightful moment.

The car was delivered to Lu Yiming's door by Volkswagen. Lu Yiming's job was simply to draw the winner. Only one car was drawn that night, and he promised to draw a second one at the end of the month.

at the same time.

Liu Zhenyun turned off the last light that was still on in the company.

After joining Lu Yiming's company.

He works until the early hours of the morning almost every day.

Or rather, he wasn't working.

Instead, he treated the company as his own home.

His parents went back to their hometown.

It was Lu Yiming who advanced him a year's salary so that he could redeem the house in his hometown. His parents, who had lived in the countryside all their lives, were not suited to living in the city.

It could be said that the high-rise buildings in the city were like cages for his parents.

Lock the door.

Just as he was walking towards the elevator.

"You're working this late again? Seriously, are you a robot?"

The speaker was Jiang Yuanming.

He was just walking out of the company building when he pushed open the door.

Liu Zhenyun turned his head and saw that it was Jiang Yuanming.

He immediately smiled and said, "Aren't you the same?"

Hear this.

Jiang Yuanming took out the laptop he had been carrying under his arm and said, "I'm not like you, a workaholic. I'm here to retrieve my forgotten laptop!"

ten minutes later.

In the 24-hour convenience store in the park.

The two sat in the dining area.

Each of them had a bucket of instant noodles in front of them.

This place is way too remote.

And it just so happened to be raining.

Although Lu Yiming provided both of them with cars, the two, exhausted after a long day, did not want to go too far to find food.

Suck it~
Jiang Yuanming slurped a large mouthful of noodles into his mouth.

Then, while chewing, he asked, "What have you been busy with lately?"

The two got along quite well.

Since we both come from technical backgrounds, we can always find common ground to talk about.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhenyun swallowed the instant noodles in his mouth.

He said slowly and deliberately, "I'm thinking about how to spend the money!"

Hear this.

Jiang Yuanming put down his fork and looked at him with a surprised expression.

Liu Zhenyun is the person with the most boring private life among all the people he knows. It can be said that he basically goes between the company and home.

He had previously promised his girlfriend that she would introduce him to her best friend.

I've been invited out to meet several times, but I've been refused each time.

Regarding Liu Zhenyun.

Jiang Yuanming felt that he was the kind of person who was a genius from childhood, then sent to the Children's Palace and guaranteed admission to Peking University, and after graduation went directly to the research institute.

Only such people could possess the temperament to endure loneliness.

He would occasionally observe Liu Zhenyun at work.

Jiang Yuanming was reminded of himself many years ago when he had just graduated and started working.

This kind of person actually thinks about how to spend money?

This prompted Jiang Yuanming to ask curiously, "What do you need the money for?"

No wonder he asked that.

Given Liu Zhenyun's lifestyle, Jiang Yuanming couldn't imagine where he would spend his money.

Liu Zhenyun did not answer when he heard this.

He just buried his head in his noodles.

After all, Lu Yiming hadn't asked him to say it.

Jiang Yuanming was used to Liu Zhenyun's personality. If he didn't speak, it meant he felt that this matter couldn't be discussed. Since it couldn't be discussed, he simply didn't ask.

But then.

Liu Zhenyun suddenly looked up at him and asked, "Do you know the current market price of A100?"

A100?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuanming was momentarily stunned.

But I soon realized it.

He immediately said, "The A100 is hard to get now, a single chip costs over 50,000, right? What? You want to build a small supercomputer? I suggest you get the A800! Although it's twice as expensive, it's much better than the A100!"

The A800 is an upgraded version of the A100.

But it's an upgrade that's as incremental as squeezing toothpaste.

Both are GPU-type graphics cards.

Computing power is crucial for the development of AI. This level of graphics card is designed for this market. A DGX supercomputer containing eight A800 cards costs more than two million yuan.

Moreover, the current market demand is large.

If you order now, it will take at least a year and a half for the goods to arrive.

Therefore, those with the resources will choose to assemble their own acquiring cards.

The cost of the same 8 A800 supercomputers can be reduced to around one million.

Generally, only laboratories with deep pockets will purchase ready-made supercomputers.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhenyun nodded.

The next day.

Lu Yiming was running in the gym, facing the rising sun.

The data panel is open on his side.

His gaze was fixed on his personal data panel.

Health stat: 82.5-89 (Health)+
Fitness level: 65-69 (normal)+
Current points: 0
Even after the consumer-related quest chain ended, this panel did not disappear, and Lu Yiming also discovered that this value was not static.

Exercise can increase your physical fitness level.

A healthy diet and lifestyle can raise the upper limit of health.

At the same time, the upper limit increases by two points.

The lower limit will also increase slightly.

This intuitive change in data is the driving force behind Lu Yiming's actions.

Just like how he only enjoys reading because he has access to quantum reading technology.

At this time.

A phone call came in.

Lu Yiming raised his hand and tapped the earphone twice.

After the call is connected.

Liu Zhenyun said in a deep voice, "President Lu! I want to get a batch of A800s to make a supercomputer!"

Lu Yiming had no idea what the A800 was.

He did have some knowledge of supercomputing.

It's also because I read a wide variety of books.

At this moment, he asked doubtfully, "Supercomputing? Is 100 million enough?"

In Lu Yiming's memory.

The cost of supercomputers all start with hundreds of millions of dollars and end with millions of dollars.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhenyun said softly, "That's enough! Let's get a hundred A800s and build one machine first. We can add more later if the computing power isn't enough! I'm quite good at DIY!"
