Chapter 4

After the live broadcast, Zhang Ziyao, with a heavy expression, called out to Zhen Li and Su Gege. He rubbed his hands together, feeling quite embarrassed, and said: "Li Li, as you know, in recent years, various internet celebrity studios have emerged one after another, making it increasingly difficult for us in this industry to attract traffic. You have been live streaming for a few years now, and the novelty has worn off for everyone. The traffic has been declining over the past few months."

Zhen Lid Dao: "He had already gotten into the car at that time, and I was facing away from him. My movements were also very quick, so he probably did not notice."

"I sell my body, not my art"

"Look at what you said. Let's sort this out, how could it possibly be just a supporting role, don't worry about it," said Zhang Ziyao

Zhang Ziyao, upon seeing Zhen Li frown, quickly said: "Li Li, I know that we rely on our skills for a living, unlike other streamers who seek to attract attention and flaunt their assets. However, this society is like this; it lacks consistency and only pursues novelty. Sometimes, we also need to align with the mainstream, don't we?"

Hello, everyone, you haven't misunderstood; what Zhen Li is broadcasting is the grooming and adornment of ancient noblewomen

Su Gege still wanted to speak when she saw Zhang Ziyao poking his head out from inside the door, "What are the two beauties chatting about? The live broadcast is about to start."

However, Miss Zhen Li does not rely on this small amount of money for her livelihood. A few minutes later, today's "stills" have already been posted by Zhen Li on her Weibo and subscription account. The set of ruqun she wore today will also be available for new arrivals in her own Taobao store starting tomorrow

"Please don't be so reserved, Miss. I assure you this is a one-time occurrence. Although your live stream may be niche, it nonetheless enriches our variety of live broadcasts. Moreover, you have so many loyal fans, and the promotion of our Chinese nation's intangible culture can all rely on you." Zhang Ziyao said with a smile.

Speaking of which, Zhen Li can be considered a unique figure in the realm of online female streamers, maintaining an aloof demeanor throughout and saying not a word, relying solely on her exceptional hair-styling skills to sustain herself for an entire hour. Each month, she can earn a little over thirty thousand.

Why are there so many people becoming female live streamers? They even spare no effort with eels.

"I was mistaken yesterday; I originally thought he had no interest in me. However, today I merely spoke a single sentence, and he recognized my voice. What do you think is the reason for this?" Zhen Li leaned closer to Su Gege and asked

"It shouldn't be the case. In Sui Yu's friend's communication records, there can only be a few phone calls, and aren't there names as well?" Su Gege said

Zhen Li pinched Su Gege's face and said: "Hehe, what palace intrigue are you playing with me? You want me to change my target and give Sui Yu to you, right?"

Sugege and his group of friends, whenever they play games and engage in battles or PK, always pull Zhenli in to play on their behalf when betting on who loses and has to delete their account. They have caused significant losses to others, amounting to hundreds of thousands of RMB in accounts they have built, which is quite unscrupulous

Zhang Ziyao initially appeared troubled, followed by a sigh of resignation. The performance of the white lotus was even better than that of the female actors, leading Zhen Li to begin self-reflection on whether he had been too harsh on Zhang Ziyao.

Chinese women have a peculiar enthusiasm for classical attire, even though they may not wear it in public. They enjoy secretly playing the role of a time-traveling noblewoman, indulging in self-pity as they admire themselves in the mirror

The name Ning Bancheng is indeed well-known, meaning that half of the real estate in this city belongs to him. Although the metaphor may seem somewhat exaggerated, the actual situation is not far from it

What are you talking about? At the beginning, it was he who begged you to start this live broadcast. I never expected it to last for so many years. I thought you wouldn't be able to continue for a few months. " Su Gege said, "Moreover, don't tell me you haven't noticed that he is interested in you.

Speaking of which, Zhen Li's side job is also as a female anchor, but she follows a niche route characterized by subtlety and luxury. Her live streaming background is even set in a rented ancient embroidery building within a garden, adorned with high-end antique-style furniture. The arrangement of this room alone cost nearly 3 million.

Zhang Ziyao looked at the data and couldn't help but exclaim that Zhen Li's beauty is truly a hard currency, requiring no need to flaunt her career line to attract attention. Supporting her is relatively safe and less likely to result in account suspension

Zhang Ziyao is the male best friend of Su Gege, and he has established a superstar studio, which is essentially a team dedicated to cultivating online streamers. Currently, it is quite successful, as evidenced by the fact that the female streamer who ranked ninth in last year's annual gala on platform X emerged from Zhang Ziyao's studio

As the person emerged from behind the screen, the live streaming platform was flooded with comments expressing admiration. A wealthy individual waved, and when a Porsche was revealed, it was ten at once.

Sugege laughed upon hearing this, "We need not worry about this, right?" Sugege raised an eyebrow and looked at Zhenli

Zhang Ziyao was overjoyed; he had originally prepared himself for the possibility that Zhen Li would not agree. Now, it was an unexpected delight. "Alright, I will go find the platform director to discuss this. Once everything is arranged, I will inform you."

Sugege showed no interest in Sui Yu's friend, the passerby, not even asking for their name. What intrigued her more was what the other party had just said that had startled Zhen Li so much that he nearly dropped his phone.

"Alright, I will keep it brief," Zhang Ziyao had just started to say half a sentence when he was interrupted by Su Gege

Ambiguity overflows, love is unfulfilled; this is the relationship of most men and women today. They test each other, only willing to invest when there is a return, seeking alternatives while keeping options open, and the more backups, the better.

After Zhang Ziyao left in high spirits, Su Gege nudged Zhen Li's shoulder and said, "Why did you suddenly change your mind and agree to him?"

In fact, if Su Gege were to ask, Zhen Li would not tell her, in order to avoid her making a fuss and seeking personal gain at the expense of friendship

Su Ge Ge let out a cold snort, indicating her displeasure at being unable to strike down the monster before her

Zhen Li glanced at Su Gege and said, "If it is not exposed, it is meaningless"

You are quite capable, Zhang Ziyao, this tactic of asking for sky-high prices and then settling the debts is executed quite smoothly. Although Zhen Li has his criticisms, he is unwilling to make things difficult for Zhang Ziyao after collaborating for such a long time.

Sugege pleaded repeatedly, saying: "Hehe, don't say that I am discouraging you. We are not worthy of such a person, so let's just forget it."

"Regardless of the reason he remembers my voice, you must know that he did not tell me his phone number last night. He will surely be curious about how I found out." Zhen Li Fu Holmes remarked.

Zhen Lid Dao: "This live broadcast has been going on for a few years now, and there is nothing new in terms of hairstyle, makeup, and clothing. I can at most continue until next year. Yao Ge has helped me for so many years, so I must give something back."

That young lady is remarkable; just the income from the banquet in one month is enough to purchase that set of apartments from Zhen Li

"Where would I dare to wrong the two young ladies? Am I that kind of person? Even if you are willing, I wouldn't be able to bear it." Zhang Ziyao smiled and said, "It's like this, Lili has learned folk dance, right? Could we add a segment of folk dance during our live broadcast? It would also be a way to promote our national essence."

Sugege cast a glance at Zhen Li and said, "He is a mixed-race individual, and his family owns half of the shares of a bank in the United States. After his father passed away, his mother remarried Ning Bancheng"

Can it be arranged? Does that mean there are hidden agendas? Is there a lack of people to accompany? Zhen Li stated sharply

When it comes to quick actions, Su Ge Ge truly deserves admiration. Although this young lady has struggled for so many years without obtaining the qualification for her defense, the speed she has developed in her laboratory practice is genuinely several streets ahead of the average person.

Although live streaming has provided Zhen Li with significant financial freedom, allowing her to independently afford a car and a house without Professor Liang's support, it is merely a byproduct born out of her interests. In fact, she has grown somewhat impatient with it, as she is indeed one of those individuals described by Zhang Ziyao who only pursue novelty without any persistence.

That is a bit tricky. Zhen Li joked, "But who knows, he might just like to tease the little cabbage, right?"

Zhang Ziyao smiled obsequiously and added, "Don't worry, I will arrange your PK opponent for you, and I will ensure that you are not put in a difficult position."

Sugege turned his eyes and said: "Did you not see his friend's phone?"

"Yao Ge, just say what you want to say directly." Zhen Li did not want to beat around the bush with Zhang Ziyao

"I don't use Rejoice, I'm not as confident as you are," Zhen Li said with a frown.

However, due to Zhen Li's aloof demeanor, she struggles to gain popularity during the annual gala when it is necessary to attract attention. As a result, this type of female anchor cannot become a super internet celebrity, but she can still make a decent living.

In fact, to be honest, Zhen Li has been able to thrive in the live streaming industry largely because of the support from Zhang Ziyao. Without this live streaming platform, her and Su Gege's hanfu store would not have become so popular. Although she has not helped Zhang Ziyao much in the past, every time he has resources, he prioritizes her use of them.

After finishing her makeup and styling her hair, Zhen Li stepped behind the three-panel screen of plum, orchid, and bamboo to change into her ancient costume. Today, Zhen Li is wearing a Tang-style front-opening skirt, which is not fitted at the waist, resembling the style worn by Fan Bingbing in the role of Yang Guifei.

Individuals like this, such as Su Gege's father, who is a nouveau riche, will never be able to break into the other party's circle, and someone like Zhen Li is even more unattainable.

Zhen Li's live streaming content focuses on makeup and hairstyling, with hairstyling being the key aspect. She has experimented with various styles such as the Ling Snake Bun, Flying Immortal Bun, and Falling Horse Bun, and has even created her own unique styles.

Zhen Li shook his head with a smile, saying, where is this going? This is still about intangible culture? This is a hat that has been worn all the way to the sky

Then let's give it a try. If the viewership of the live broadcast continues to decline, then please cancel my live stream.

I also understand that this puts you in a difficult position. As a distinguished holder of a doctor's degree, it would be beneath us to engage in something as trivial as dancing. How about this: the platform is planning to hold a streamer networking event soon, during which there will be a streamer PK competition. To put it plainly, the purpose is to boost the popularity of the streamers. It wouldn't be appropriate for us to completely abstain from the platform's activities, would it

The store on a certain e-commerce platform jointly opened by Zhen Li and Su Ge Ge has already attracted over 500,000 buyers, thriving remarkably and making competitors particularly envious, often leading to malicious review manipulation.

If you want us to organize a WeChat group or QQ group to please those lewd men, then you need not say anything further

Zhen Li's enchanting smile, that smile is enough to rival the seductive malice of Su Daji, "Then I am even more interested in him."

Sugege looked at Zhen Lidao and said: "Actually, Yao Ge is quite good, a genuine second-generation rich kid, he looks good, and he is capable. If you could respond to him even a little, wouldn't he be eager to pursue you?"

He asked and answered himself: "As long as it can arouse his curiosity, it will be easy. Did you not say that all intrigues begin with curiosity?"

Sugege could not stand Zhen Li's smug demeanor, as she had climbed to her position over the blood of her own heart, so she couldn't help but strike back, saying: "Perhaps the other person truly possesses the ability to remember everything they hear."

Zhen Li cast a sidelong glance at Su Gege, with his left arm crossed over his chest and his right elbow resting on the back of his left hand, his fingers idly stroking his chin. The serious demeanor he displayed stirred a flutter in Su Gege's heart, prompting her to secretly curse him as a demon.

From the moment Sui Yu called him until he arrived, his call log was filled with ten entries, and he even had to flip through the pages. All of them were from unknown numbers. It was already that late, yet there were still so many calls. There must be quite a few appointments for the evening. Zhen Li had a preconceived dislike for Ning Zhi, simply because his face was not symmetrical.

I became interested after some clarification, "Did you hear any news on your phone? Hurry, tell me so I can be struck down."

Moreover, Zhang Ziyao and the others also have performance targets to meet each month; one cannot always think only of oneself

The blue and white layered gauze skirt worn by Zhen Li is so ethereal that it cannot be more celestial, resembling a perfect reincarnation of the Little Dragon Girl.
