Quick Wear: Devil's Whisper

Chapter 2 Tragic Male Anchor 2

Yang Lei's situation is that he is penniless and can only look for a part-time job during the holidays. However, there are not so many part-time job opportunities in a small county town. There are only a few commercial streets and businesses are unwilling to hire short-term workers.

With no other options, Yang Lei had to work as a salesman in an insurance company. Such large companies would give you a guaranteed salary of 1,000 yuan in the first month, and would require you to produce performance in the second month. Yang Lei didn't plan to work there permanently anyway, so he would just work there with full attendance for a month and then leave.

Just when Yang Lei was feeling depressed, his girlfriend appeared like a timely rain.

The insurance company gets off work at 3:30 in the afternoon. Yang Lei chats with his girlfriend online. His girlfriend fell in love with a rock singer during the winter vacation. The lead singer of this band also works part-time as a live broadcaster.

Yang Lei was brainwashed by the recommended content. In order to have common topics with his girlfriend, Yang Lei also downloaded a live broadcast platform. However, he couldn't stand heavy metal music after waiting in the live broadcast room for half an hour. His ears felt buzzing. He didn't know why his girlfriend liked to listen to this.

Yang Lei found that many anchors were part-time workers, so he thought he could give it a try, since it didn’t cost any money anyway.

At the beginning, Yang Lei didn’t even have a signed guild, so he just worked on the platform on his own. Gradually, he accumulated some small fans. There were new topics every day, and the live broadcast content was no longer boring.

Being an anchor is also a profession, and there are performance requirements. There are requirements for the effective duration and flow of each live broadcast. Things like gradients are something that Yang Lei has never achieved.

It is said that small fame depends on promotion, while great fame depends on luck. Yang Lei is a lucky guy. He met a noble sister who promoted him to the altar.

The sudden popularity caught Yang Lei off guard. It was the first time he knew that he could make 10,000 yuan just by singing a song. He had never dreamed of such a thing.

It is said that it is easy to make money on the Internet, and Yang Lei has also benefited from this wave of dividends. In just over half a year, Yang Lei has earned more than one million.

Yang Lei was only 21 years old at that time. The sudden wealth made him lost for a while, but he soon came to his senses. He understood that this wave of traffic came and went quickly, and he was not good at financial management, so he could save some money first.

Yang Lei made money and did not hide it from his parents. He knew that his parents had not had a easy life over the years and he also wanted to tell them that he could make money.

When Yang Lei's father first learned that Yang Lei was not studying hard and became a live broadcaster, he was so angry that he kicked him. But later, when he found out that Yang Lei could earn more than 100,000 yuan a month, he immediately changed his attitude, went to the best restaurant in the county to book a banquet, and entertained relatives and friends. In front of everyone, he said that his son's live broadcasting brought honor to the family.

Yang Lei returned home for his internship in his senior year. After all, he could do live streaming anywhere. His girlfriend was from a big city and it was impossible for her to go back to live with him in a small county. As the distance between them grew, their feelings gradually faded, and they eventually broke up peacefully.

Yang Lei thinks it’s great that they can occasionally like each other’s posts on WeChat Moments. After all, he is not worthy of her, so he should not waste her youth.

There is competition in every industry, and live streaming platforms are no exception. There are only so many people on a platform. If you take away all the people, others will naturally be unwilling. After all, blocking someone's financial path is like killing their parents.

Yang Lei, who was fighting alone, had never experienced all of this. He was taken out of context by others, maliciously framed, and some specious gossips were made up. Since then, Yang Lei's live broadcast career has plummeted, and the popularity he had gathered at its peak also quickly disappeared.

It takes only one mouth to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of effort to refute them. Yang Lei wanted to explain, but no one was willing to listen to him. There are nearly 10,000 anchors on the platform, and there are too many revelations every day. No one would care whether the gossip spread by an out-of-date anchor is true.

Those who stayed chose to believe Yang Lei, and that sister also stayed. However, those seemingly true revelations reflected this sister, causing her to be affected to a certain extent. Moreover, this sister was about to get married, and she needed to live her own three-dimensional life well, so she gradually quit the Internet.

Yang Lei also fell from the top anchor to the ranks of middle-level anchors. The most obvious difference is the sharp drop in income, but he did not tell his family about this because his mother was diagnosed with cancer not long ago and the situation was not optimistic.

Yang Lei went home more frequently, but he was very reluctant to go home in his heart. Some of his father's actions and words made him feel embarrassed.

Yang Lei's old phone was broken, so he bought a new one. When he got home, his mother saw it and blamed him for spending money. Yang Lei smiled and joked, "Why don't you change both of your phones?"

Before Yang's mother could say anything, Yang's father said, "Why buy a new phone? Our phones are still usable. Just give me the money for the new phone."

Yang Lei thought his father was joking and didn't take it too seriously. Until he went out, his father actually followed him out and told Yang Lei not to forget to transfer the money for his mobile phone to him.

"I think the electric car your uncle drives is pretty good. It's only over 30,000 yuan and is really convenient to drive. I hope you can buy one for Dad someday."

"Didn't you say you were going to buy a BMW? Why did you buy this brand? Cheap goods are not good, so you still have to buy expensive cars."

"Young people spend money lavishly. You should leave your money with me. I will help you manage your money."

There were many conversations like this, and Yang Lei became less and less willing to go home, but his mother was at home, so he had to go back.

Yang Lei earns less now, but he still has a million yuan in savings. He is afraid that if his mother needs money to save her life one day, he will not be able to come up with so much money.

I don’t know how his father and mother communicated, but they asked Yang Lei to buy a house in the city.

Yang Lei was very surprised and didn't understand why he suddenly wanted to buy a house?

My father hinted that this was your mother's wish, and as a son, filial piety is the most important virtue, so you should not refute it.

Yang Lei finally took his mother to a hospital in the capital, but her condition was still getting worse. Yang's mother still didn't want to be hospitalized for treatment. She said that it couldn't be cured anyway, so it would be a waste of money.

After returning from the capital, Yang Lei gave his savings to his mother and asked them to go and look for a house themselves.

Yang's father praised his son a lot, but Yang Lei didn't say a word at that time. He just felt depressed and suffocated.

The house was settled, and the total cost including the formalities and decoration was 1.1 million yuan. Yang Lei knew that his parents had savings, but his father still asked his son for the shortfall of 100,000 yuan.

Yang Lei really had no money left. It was obvious that his parents had never considered this problem, and no one had even asked him a question.

In the end, Yang Lei borrowed the 100,000 yuan from a girl named Bang in a live broadcast room.

This house was bought in full by Yang Lei, but his name is not on the property certificate. How ironic.
