After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

Seeing that I didn't answer, the girls' expressions became even more unpleasant.

Perhaps they were afraid I would do something for OuOu.

Not wanting to give a negative impression on the first day, I immediately explained, "I have no relationship with Ou Ou, and I only connected with him to make money."

Upon hearing this, the girls exchanged glances, still harboring some doubts about me.

I have already clarified everything that needed to be explained, and what they think next is none of my business.

In the conference room.

I found a spot on the edge of the room to sit down and try to make myself less noticeable.

Lin Nan saw my actions and his eyes showed disdain, but he ignored me.

For her, the more off-center I sat, the better.

She's happy as long as you don't hang around in front of her.

Once everyone was present, Lin Nan projected the information of the newly hired girls onto the big screen.

They were all formerly employed by Ouou Company.

It seems that after Jiang Yichen blacklisted Ou Ou yesterday, the contracts of these girls were transferred to him.

Lin Nan introduced the new girls to us one by one.

Several girls greeted us, the anchors.

I just casually leaned back in my seat and listened.

Little Sweetie also felt bored and took the initiative to start a conversation with me.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, she reached out and poked my arm: "The traffic has not been very good lately, and with the arrival of new people, the competition is even more intense."

The internet evolves very quickly.

Welcoming the new year and bidding farewell to the old is inevitable.

I sighed softly and lowered my voice to the lowest possible level: "I hope I can maintain my performance this month; my stats are fluctuating too much."

After OuOu collapsed, I knew without her going on live stream that the viewership would probably return to its previous level, or even be lower than before.

Even though my voice wasn't loud, it still caught Lin Nan's attention.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on me, and she immediately fell silent.

The meeting room fell silent.

The people present were puzzled and all looked at me in the direction of Lin Nan's gaze.

Noticing that I was being watched, I had no choice but to keep quiet for the time being.

Even though I cut my losses in time, it still caused Lin Nan's dissatisfaction.

She stared intently at me, but then reminded the newcomers, "The company values ​​rules the most, and I hope you will all act with discretion."

I knew she was using the new person to steer me.

Anyway, this kind of thing has happened before, so I just pretended not to hear it.

The newcomers responded awkwardly.

Seeing that I had no reaction, Lin Nan stood up from her seat and deliberately raised her voice: "We are a team, and I hope everyone can have team spirit and not think about scheming against each other."

Sensing that something was amiss, no one spoke, and they looked at each other in bewilderment.

But this did not affect Lin Nan. She continued to admonish: "Making money is fine, but don't think about making money through underhanded means. That kind of approach will only make people look down on you."

Lin Nan's words were subtly directed at me, which made me feel really uncomfortable.

After she finished speaking, Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow and asked me in a provocative tone, "Gu Mo, do you think Assistant Lin's words are correct?"

I knew Xiaoyu was trying to stir up trouble between me and Lin Nan.

I didn't respond to her comment, and casually echoed, "If you think it's right, then it's right."

The more Xiaoyu wants to see something, the less I want her to have it.

Seeing that I didn't argue back, Xiaoyu felt deflated, gritted her teeth in anger, and muttered a few words indignantly.

Seeing my unusual behavior, Lin Nan couldn't help but snort coldly and continued, "I've said what I needed to say. I hope you won't cause trouble for the company in the future. The company has no obligation to bail you out again and again."

Thinking about what happened last night, I lowered my head and didn't say much.

After all, Jiang Yichen covered for me again yesterday.

The first half of the meeting was mainly Lin Nan introducing the newcomers to us, and then using the newcomers to establish rules.

As the meeting drew to a close, Lin Nan slowly got to the point: "The company has brought in a lot of new live streamers. According to the higher-ups, the idea is to have experienced streamers mentor new ones to maximize the monetization of traffic."

In other words, some of the traffic previously enjoyed by veteran streamers is being diverted to new streamers.

While this method can quickly generate new followers, it can also negatively impact the traffic of established streamers.

My data wasn't very good to begin with, so this method wasn't optimal for me.

Judging from Lin Nan's expression, it seems she had already made up her mind a long time ago.

Under our puzzled gazes, Lin Nan directly handed the choice to the newcomers: "You new anchors can choose your own mentors now, and then you can learn from them."

After receiving Lin Nan's instructions, the newcomers looked at each other, seemingly unable to make a decision.

For some reason, I felt a little nervous.

I'm afraid someone will choose me, and I'm also afraid no one will.

After careful consideration, the newcomer made a decisive choice.

The girl sitting across from me was the first to make a decision.

Her name is Xiao Li. She has a sweet appearance and two dimples when she smiles.

Her gaze remained fixed on Little Sweetie.

After hesitating for a while, she finally mustered up the courage to say, "Teacher Tian, ​​I am your fan, and I would like to choose you as my mentor."

I looked at the two of them closely, and their styles were indeed similar.

If Xiao Li were to follow Xiao Tiantian, she could certainly gain a lot of attention.

I just don't know if she can handle Britney's strict personality.

Just as I was thinking about it, Lin Nan suddenly spoke up, and she directly arranged for Xiao Li and Xiao Tiantian to get married.

The entire process did not give Little Sweetie any chance to refuse.

Little Sweetie didn't seem to care about those things; she couldn't refuse the task of assigning people to do it anyway.

What difference does it make who it is?

After the first group was decided, the newcomers successively decided on their mentors.

On average, they chose Xiaotian and Xiaoyu, while others chose other popular live streamers from the company.

I, on the other hand, was all alone with a single order.

As I expected, no one chose me.

They know I have poor online presence and a terrible reputation, which is why they avoid me.

Although it's not pretty, it's still a good thing for me.

With no one sharing the traffic, I can focus my attention on gaining followers.

Seeing the final selection results, Lin Nan made no attempt to hide her mockery of me: "Gu Mo, when it comes to making a choice, you can see just how unpopular you are."

"You can tell at a glance whether a person is good or bad. Look at these people, they don't know you and don't want to get close to you. That shows how unlucky you are."

I didn't speak.

It's really unlucky that I, the former eldest daughter of the Gu family, have to listen to her lecture here.

Seeing my silence, she adopted a victorious air and changed the subject.

After the meeting ended, I was the first to leave the meeting room.

After learning about the meeting, Lao Mo rushed over to comfort me: "Gu Mo, it's not a bad thing that we didn't get any new candidates. Don't be too sad."

Knowing that Lao Mo was concerned about me, I nodded and replied, "I know, it's okay."

Seeing that my reaction remained indifferent, Lao Mo continued, "Mentoring newcomers will divert traffic, so you don't need to. You can focus on achieving good results and building up your livestreaming business."

"I know, I'll think about how to generate this buzz."

Old Mo frowned and asked, "Are you really alright?"

Seeing me nod, Lao Mo finally felt relieved.

He gave me a few instructions and then went to attend to his own work.

The influx of new anchors has significantly increased his workload.

I went back to my workspace to prepare for today's live stream.

As soon as I started my live stream, a lot of fans flocked in.

I thought it was because of the online connection a couple of days ago that had generated so much buzz, and I was secretly delighted, so I quickly welcomed the fans.

Before I could even offer my congratulations, I saw a barrage of insults in the live chat.

[You deserve to die a horrible death! You'd eat any kind of cheap food, and we trusted you so much—you're a complete liar!]

We trusted you and chose you, and you're just treating us like韭菜 (a metaphor for being exploited) to be harvested?

[You damn liar, give me an explanation right now!]
