CSGO Unboxing Streamer: A Charity-Driven Tycoon

Chapter 6 Questioning Understanding Becomes
Holy crap! Did you win the lottery? You're gambling this high?

The message came from Brother Fu.

Lu Yiming posted a live stream announcement in his live stream room tonight.

He announced that he will be challenging the 100 Castle Boxes on the 10th.

The Castle Case is currently priced at over 200 yuan each, so 100 cases would cost over 20,000 yuan. Although it's nothing compared to the commemorative Dragon Sniper rifles that start at over 100,000 yuan.

However, it's important to know that the probability of getting a red item from a castle chest is lower than that of getting a gold item.

The probability of throwing a hundred stones down the water is extremely high.

Even though Fu Ge himself had opened dozens of cases, he stopped after opening a few dozen because of the pressure of losing 200 yuan for each case he opened.

See the message.

Lu Yiming, who had just finished his live stream, had a strange expression on his face.

I wondered if this guy was a prophet.

The bizarre idea of ​​shaking one's head off.

Lu Yiming picked up his phone and replied, "I plan to delve deeper into the live streaming industry, so I'm prepared to spend some money to create some entertainment value."

The message has been sent.

Rich guy immediately replied, "Tsk tsk~ Okay! Still playing tonight?"

Lu Yiming really wanted to reply that he could call.

He's actually the kind of person who can stay up all night.

Three or four hours of sleep is enough, but it's inevitable to feel sleepy during the day. Considering that it shouldn't affect his main job, Lu Yiming could only regretfully say no.

as predicted.

The news that he was going to open 100 cases of Castle caused quite a stir in the Chinese CS:GO community.

In the following days, the number of viewers in Lu Yiming's live stream steadily increased. Although the average number of viewers online was still less than 100, he at least made a name for himself.

The live stream ended on the evening of the 5th.

The number of viewers in the live stream exceeded 1,000, with an average of over 100 viewers online at any given time.

This also includes Lu Yiming's live stream.

It appeared at the end of the directory and was immediately visible in the first few rows when searching for categories.

CSGO is a dead channel on the Shark platform.

The term "cool channel" refers to a live stream with a small audience, with only a few thousand or tens of thousands of viewers for the entire channel. Even though top streamers may have millions of views, the actual number of people watching online may not even reach ten thousand.

Data falsification is very common these days.

This evening.

Lu Yiming started his live stream at exactly 8 o'clock.

Looking at the online audience that has surpassed fifty.

Lu Yiming said with a smile, "Let's postpone the unboxing part a bit today! I'm planning to spend some money on some accessories for myself. Does anyone have any good recommendations?"

Jewelry prices in 18 were incredibly cheap.

Butterfly knives haven't increased in price due to the changes; most are still priced in the hundreds.

The castle box is only a little over two hundred.

If the money wasn't so important, Lu Yiming would have already gone all in with the 320,000 yuan he received.

However, spending tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands is still possible.

As a non-technical streamer, the only way to attract players' attention is by showing off the inventory.

He saw someone in the live chat recommending that he buy the Dragon Sniper rifle.

Lu Yiming waved his hand and said, "No need to buy this! We can just open one in a few days!"

That's a bit too confident.

The users in the live stream cannot be called fans yet; many people directly mocked Lu Yiming for being too naive.

It's clear that everyone is concerned about Lu Yiming wanting the Dragon Sniper rifle for just one hundred boxes.

They didn't have much hope.

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "We'll see on the 10th! If they don't give out a commemorative Dragon Lore, I'll give you a regular Dragon Lore in the raffle!"

A brand new standard Dragon Lore costs over 10,000.

Upon hearing this, the viewers in the live stream became excited.

Many people even started asking directly what kind of wear and tear to send.

Of course, there will inevitably be some eye-catching items. [I'm not being argumentative: Pfft~ Streamer, your inventory doesn't even add up to a few thousand dollars, and you want to give away tens of thousands of dollars worth of Dragon Lore? You'll probably be using an emulator to do it~]

This comment appeared.

Many people echoed this sentiment.

Lu Yiming wasn't annoyed at all. He said with a playful expression, "Want to make a bet? We won't bet anything else, how about a membership card? I'll immediately prove that I can give away a Dragon Sniper rifle and that it's definitely not a simulator! You can't even afford to give away a membership card, can you?"

As the saying goes, those who enjoy watching a spectacle never mind making things worse.

The number of viewers in the live stream gradually increased and successfully exceeded 100.

At this point, people started encouraging the troublemaker in the live chat.

[I'm not a contrarian: Come on! Take this! Who's afraid of who!]

I saw the comments section.

Lu Yiming directly displayed the Bafu webpage in the live stream room.

You can see it after retrieving your purchase records.

An order for one hundred castle crates has been fulfilled, and a new order is currently pending.

This means that Lu Yiming is preparing to buy two hundred cases.

The total investment was over 50,000 yuan.

I'm not being argumentative, I'm just giving away a membership card!
[I'm not a troll: I'm impressed! The streamer is awesome! But I still don't think you'll get the Dragon Lore on the 10th. Don't block me if you do pull for it!]

At this moment, the comments section was filled with "666".

Currently, he is the only CSGO streamer in China who focuses on spending money to stream CSGO.

This is very new live stream content for ordinary players.

Next up is the shopping segment.

The first thing Lu Yiming noticed was the knife. When everyone saw that he was going to buy a butterfly knife, they all tried to dissuade him. Hearing this, Lu Yiming laughed and said, "It is indeed not very easy to use, but since it is a flaw, maybe Gabe Newell will fix it. I personally think the butterfly knife is quite nice."

Nobody believes him at this stage.

But it will probably be quite interesting to dig up what he said in his live streams later.

Lu Yiming bought the Crimson Web Butterfly Knife. Because it was a popular skin and brand new and rare, while most knife skins were priced around 1,000, this brand new one could sell for over 3,000.

Then came a sweeping purchase of butterfly knives priced around a thousand yuan.

He bought the original skin of the butterfly knife, which originally cost over 600, for over 800.

Lu Yiming wasn't worried about whether this action would be considered problematic in the future. After all, the price increase wouldn't happen for at least a year, so who could possibly connect his current actions with future price increases?

I didn't buy too much.

He probably bought around seventy or eighty items, and deposited 120,000 yuan into his platform account. After purchasing two hundred castles, he had used it all up.

While hoarding crates might yield a higher profit margin, hoarding hundreds of thousands of crates at once makes them too difficult to sell.

It's much easier to draw the knife then.

[Smiling Veteran: Holy crap! It only cost over 60,000? All-in on butterfly knives? Streamer, do you know some inside information?!]

This comment was posted.

Many people also began to ask further questions.

What CSGO has no shortage of people who tinker with cosmetic items is...

From high-ranking merchants to ordinary players.

Hearing this, Lu Yiming laughed and said, "No! Didn't I say that the butterfly knife issue is probably a bug? If it's a bug, it might be fixed soon. And after it's fixed, don't you think the current price is a bit low? I'm buying at the bottom! Even if I lose money at this price, it won't be by much, right?"

[Smiling Veteran: Aren't you afraid of Valve's red notification?]

Red letter?

Upon seeing these comments, Lu Yiming looked at his newly replaced computer.

He does indeed have this concern.

Therefore, he took some time the day before yesterday to replace the old, second-hand equipment. Although his account has never had any problems, it is inevitable that he will be maliciously reported after his live stream becomes popular. And coincidentally, his second-hand hard drive contained some unclean things.

The account used to hoard the goods was his secondary account.

Finding key merchants to buy box keys at low prices is all done by high-level accounts. Therefore, even if someone accidentally enters the business red list, it is because they have already decided to clear out their inventory and abandon the unused key accounts.

This live-stream purchase was also to preserve video evidence proving that his purchase channel was legitimate.

At this moment, he looked at the chat and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid! Valve only bans cheaters and those who use stolen credit cards to make cross-region purchases. This is just normal gameplay. If they ban me without reason, I will definitely sue them!"
