After waiting a while, Zhang Xiaoyu saw new viewers arrive. She greeted them and tried to chat, but they didn't respond at all. If they didn't like watching her stream, they would have just left to watch someone else. Why would they remain there without making a sound? So she thought these two might be bots.
"Ugh, I feel like my mouth is going to get dry from talking so much, it's so tiring!" Zhou Yueling didn't usually realize how tiring it was to deliberately find topics to chat about.
Zhang Xiaoyu turned to look at her: "Yueling, are you tired? But I did hear you say a lot just now, and it was really inspiring."
Seeing that someone was paying attention to her, Zhou Yueling ran over to chat: "What charisma? That's just me packaging myself, but nobody actually listens. You see how enthusiastically I was talking just now, but there were only three people in total."
"You're not going to stream anymore?"
"Isn't everyone here? The only three fruits left have run away, so I came to chat with you. I have a lot to say."
"I even performed a tongue twister, and I almost bit my tongue!" Zhou Yueling's voice was a little excited, but she restrained herself when she saw Xia Yiqing was still live streaming, but she was still full of resentment. "I talked and talked until my lips were almost blistered, and only one person gave me a 5-star stone gift, and then there were a few free gifts. It's so hard to earn money!"
Zhang Xiaoyu deeply sympathized. Even though she had just received a gift, she didn't feel that it was something she had earned; it felt more like an unexpected stroke of luck.
“I also think the cost-effectiveness is too low. My hourly rate for tutoring is 200 yuan, but I have been broadcasting for almost an hour now and have only received a few gifts.”
Xia Yiqing paused for a moment, took a sip of water, and shared her feelings after overhearing her two roommates' conversation.
"Can I go over and take a look?"
"Watch if you want," Xia Yiqing shrugged, indifferent.
Zhou Yueling walked over in a few steps. She glanced at the number of viewers and the gifts, and said in surprise, "Yiqing, you're amazing! Your live stream has double-digit viewers, and the gifts add up to over a hundred. I'm so envious!"
As expected, people are different. However, Zhou Yueling was not jealous. It was a fact that her roommate was much prettier than her, so it was only natural that her roommate was in a better position.
The result was much worse than she had expected, and Xia Yiqing was dissatisfied: "It's all just talk. There are only a dozen or so people. I just met a rude person who spoke in a sleazy way, which really ruined my mood. And it seems that these gift platforms take a 50% cut, so I only get half, and I can't withdraw the money until next month."
Chen Shiya had been watching a drama with her headphones on, but now she was listening intently to her roommates chatting. She was a little curious about Zhang Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, what about you?"
"I think I just heard you thanking someone for giving you a driftboat?" Xia Yiqing looked at Zhang Xiaoyu uncertainly. Everyone was focused on her own affairs, so she only vaguely heard a few words. But a driftboat on Starlight costs a hundred yuan, so this gift wasn't cheap.
"Wow~ Xiaoyu, you're so amazing!" Zhou Yueling exclaimed with sparkling eyes, she was truly impressed.
Zhang Xiaoyu was a little embarrassed: "I was lucky. I just happened to meet a very nice person. He just wanted to encourage me and then he gave me a gift."
"So you listened to me, right? You tried it and you met a good person! I also want to meet such a good person, why can't I?" Zhou Yueling was happy for her friend, while praying that she would have good luck next time.
Xia Yiqing nodded in agreement: "This can be considered a good omen."
She originally wanted to end the broadcast, but now she's decided to broadcast a little longer. Who knows when her luck will come? Besides, since she's decided to try this line of work, who isn't hoping to become a sensation and meet some super-rich big shots?
Zhou Yueling rolled up her sleeves and raised her fist: "Okay, I'm going back to work. I hope Lady Luck will smile on me too."
Zhang Xiaoyu returned to her position. She didn't think she would be lucky enough to encounter another user as good as "The fan is really useful". In fact, that was the case. In the next hour, people who occasionally entered the live stream disappeared very quickly, as if they had entered by mistake. Until the broadcast ended, she still only had one follower.
Zhou Yueling felt that she had exhausted all her energy: "I think I should give up. I really don't have this luck."
Nearly two hours had passed, and she hadn't expected the second hour to be even worse than the first. She hadn't even received a free gift, but she had received two followers, and she didn't know what to say.
Xia Yiqing's expression didn't look joyful either. She received less than two hundred gifts in total during this live stream, which was far from her goal. Although she knew she couldn't be impatient for quick success, perhaps because she was confident in herself, the result was different from what she had imagined, but she was still able to remain calm.
Everyone, those who need to take a shower should take a shower, those who want to play on their phones should play on their phones, and those who want to study should study. When it's time to turn off the lights and go to sleep, that's about it.
The next day, there were classes all morning, and a half-day off in the afternoon, but Zhang Xiaoyu was the only one there; her three other roommates were all out of the dorm.
After thinking it over, Zhang Xiaoyu decided to start a live stream anyway. Yesterday was alright, so even though she told herself to stay calm, she still held onto some hope.
The same silence followed, without even a single comment. Zhang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and finally found "The fan is really useful" on the monthly ranking list. Haha, there was no need to search, because there was only this one person on the list. Unfortunately, the other person seemed to be offline.
Zhang Xiaoyu wasn't very familiar with this live streaming platform, but the beauty filter was really good. She looked much more pretty on her phone, and there was even an eye makeup effect? Her eyes seemed bigger and brighter. To see more clearly, Zhang Xiaoyu almost pressed her face against the screen.
Then, her vision blurred, and she thought she saw a lot of people entering the live stream?
Zhang Xiaoyu quickly sat up straight and noticed that the screen had changed, splitting into two. She occupied one half, and the other half featured a streamer she didn't recognize. The streamer was very beautiful, with heavy but not gaudy makeup that accentuated her delicate and three-dimensional features. However, she seemed a bit arrogant and not very approachable.
[That startled me! Why is the streamer standing so close?]
[I almost had a heart attack!]
Is she a new streamer? There don't seem to be many viewers.
[Judging from the streamer's level, they're only a newbie at level one.]
She definitely can't beat Rose.
"Uh, it would be strange if they could win."
A barrage of comments flashed past Zhang Xiaoyu's eyes, but she couldn't see many of them clearly, leaving her completely bewildered.
The female streamer occupying the other side of the screen is a top streamer from the Firefly Guild, named Rose in the Sky. The Firefly Guild is also a major guild on Starlight, having signed many streamers who are now at high levels. Rose in the Sky is one of them, over level 70. She is also a female streamer in the beauty category and is very talented.
"Are you a new streamer? Not scared, are you? I just forced a PK because I lost the PK, this is my punishment." After looking the new streamer over, Rose said in a gentle tone.
Objectively speaking, she wasn't particularly striking in appearance, nor did she seem like someone who would pull off any stunts. Rose subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but then found her own mindset amusing; she was actually a little scared.
