Chapter 4, Alternative Live Streaming

... ...

Encouraged by the boss, Huang Mao felt even more confident and said, "Qiang Ge, rest assured, it won't go wrong, it's just ahead."

A decline in traffic equates to a reduction in rewards, and with fewer rewards, it becomes impossible to live a comfortable life. For this reason, Brother Qiang has been deep in thought, racking his brain for new ideas. He has even begun to consider whether to reach out to a few friends who have returned from their ventures abroad to stage a more realistic performance to attract some traffic.

Cross-dressing

Everyone, look! It's that kid!

Watching the barrage of comments flying by, Li Qiang was left speechless. He truly could not understand what was happening in this world, why the current audience was increasingly extreme, why the online trolls were becoming more and more pathetic, unable to even manage the rhythm properly. Everything seemed to lead back to the topic of cross-dressing live streams. Is there something wrong? Is there something wrong?

Brother Qiang is truly wise

In recent years, the live streaming industry has emerged as one of the key projects in online entertainment, with major capital-rich groups establishing branches, while various small enterprises struggle to survive in the cracks, all eager to take a substantial bite out of this lucrative market

Upon hearing this, Huang Mao quickly patted his chest and confidently said, "Qiang Ge, rest assured, this time the program will definitely be innovative"

Come, come, come, the market has opened. I bet that Qiang Ge will win. One rocket. If you lose, Qiang Ge, no need for anything else, just live stream in women's clothing, and I will still reward you with one rocket

However, nowadays, although such movies are no longer being made, people's enthusiasm for this genre remains unabated. The trio of Strong Brother has catered to their preferences, fulfilling the demands of this group and earning a considerable amount of money.

Isn't this a knockoff

I also bet on Qiang Ge to win, no, he doesn't have to win, as long as you, Qiang Ge, are not cowardly, I will reward you with two yachts, but if you are cowardly, then live stream in women's clothing

Welcome, friends, to Qiang Ge's live broadcast room. Qiang Ge will take you to experience the charm of the gentlemen of society and feel the shock of battling from the southeast street to the end of the southeast street

gangster organization

Quick, lens, lens!

Martial arts, how long can one be a social person? Ready to transition into the Red Flower Society, is it not time to embrace the martial arts style? Your artistic style is also not suitable for this.

... ...

Brother Qiang, please do not get agitated, let me speak first

However, in recent days, Brother Qiang has noticed a sharp decline in the traffic to his live streaming room, as many people have grown tired of his routines. Some have even pointed out the flaws, claiming that it is entirely a performance meant to deceive the audience. In their anger, they have abandoned the broadcast and even criticized him harshly outside.

... ...

In society, you are strong, and your words are many

Li Qiang and the other two, although not fallen women and lacking the capital to sell their looks, bodies, or affections, still possess an allure in their live broadcasts that extends beyond just these aspects

This live streaming website, called "Slow Shot", is unknown in its relation to the eliminated Fast X, and it is unclear whether its licensing is complete or legal. However, these are not issues, at least not for the three individuals, as they are solely focused on the income from tips

"Qiangzi, you wouldn't be going to bully the little ones, would you? That would be unacceptable. We, as members of society, never take advantage of the weak; we must never lose face in this regard"

Just as Li Qiang was deep in thought about the live broadcast material, a guy with dyed yellow hair suddenly approached and exclaimed, "Brother Qiang, we have a program!"

What are we waiting for? Let's go. By the way, turn on the live stream to stir up the atmosphere and attract some attention; otherwise, the effect later might not be good.

Before Huang Mao could finish speaking, Li Qiang shouted angrily, expressing his frustration: "How many times have I told you, we are acting, do you understand acting? Do you really think you are some kind of worthless gangster like Zafi? Why didn't you go die during the last live stream when we were catching ghosts? And you dare to lecture some little brat? If you want to bring about your own demise, that's fine, but don't drag me down with you. If my live stream gets shut down, do you believe I won't take you down with me, you bastard!"

Dear friends, dear brothers, welcome to Qiang Ge's live broadcast room. Today, Qiang Ge is going to bring you some excitement. Just now, my younger brother called and said that a troublemaker has appeared on his side, relying on his little bit of martial arts skills to bully my younger brother. This is simply outrageous. Now, Qiang Ge will go over with everyone to see what kind of person this is.

Shut up

Li Qiang, having spotted the target, no longer had time to engage in idle chatter with the audience and immediately began adjusting the camera with two of his aides

Cross-dressing

Li Qiang cast a suspicious glance at Huang Mao and then asked, "But can it really be done? A few little kids fighting, what's so interesting about that? If it gets broadcasted, the audience might not believe it, and it could even lead to trouble."

Gift

However, this is clearly not the right path. Not only is there the constant fear and anxiety, but there is also the danger of being attacked by an angry mob. Moreover, the income is quite unstable, often leading to situations where one meal is followed by another that is spoiled, resulting in a truly miserable existence

Seeing his exuberant demeanor, Li Qiang couldn't help but roll his eyes and said irritably, "Program, what program? Don't tell me you're going to Southeast Street for another drinking spree. We've already done that seven or eight times this month. If the audience isn't tired of it, I certainly am. Can't we have something innovative?"

What else can you say about being skilled in martial arts? Brother Qiang, with such boasting, are you afraid that you won't even be able to defeat a child later? So are you giving us a heads-up in advance?

However, things are different now. With the widespread use of the internet and the rise of the live streaming industry, not only have some fallen women successfully re-entered the workforce, but three individuals have also been given a chance for a turnaround, successfully transitioning from being unemployed drifters to becoming members of a certain live streaming platform

Cross-dressing

Brother Qiang, look!

What the hell, are you trying to get yourself killed!

In the past, when the three of us gathered together, the most common activity was to go outside the vegetable market, scanning the wallets and electric scooters of the elderly, in order to sustain our livelihoods

In this regard, the audience in the live broadcast room also finds it quite enjoyable. Although they are aware that the host is mostly putting on a show and boasting, isn't the purpose of watching a live stream just to have some fun and pass the time? Whether it's boasting or acting, as long as it brings joy, who cares about the truth behind it? Nowadays, there are even live broadcasts claiming to catch ghosts; do ghosts really exist in this world?

Since watching a certain streamer’s "Social Live Room," Li Qiang suddenly found inspiration and teamed up with two of his friends. They set up a stall where they scraped together a few tattoo stickers and large iron gold necklaces, forcefully creating this trio known as the Qiang Ge Group, making a strong entry into the Slow Broadcast Live Room's social channel, or rather, the outdoor lifestyle channel

In the midst of casual conversation, the group finally arrived at their destination. The sharp-eyed Huang Mao spotted Zhang Yang and the others, along with Zhong Li, who was surrounded in the center. He immediately tugged at Li Qiang, who was still chatting with the audience, and excitedly exclaimed: "It's those people!"

Certainly not, where can one find such ostentatiously self-destructive gangsters nowadays? Li Qiang and the other two are unemployed drifters, typical ruffians, belonging to that kind of character who dares not commit murder or arson, but engages in petty theft and minor misdeeds incessantly

However, it is precisely because of this that major live streaming platforms have begun to engage in malicious competition, poaching talent, and resorting to all sorts of gimmicks. Some have even resorted to illegal activities, luring a large number of fallen women back into employment, resulting in a truly chaotic and sordid situation.

Oh, is there a new script today

When people have nothing to do, it is a very dangerous situation. Decades ago, there was a film in Hong Kong that told the story of a group of idle, middle-school boys mingling in a certain underworld. This attracted a multitude of ignorant youths who eagerly followed it, corrupting countless young boys and girls.

This ... ... is indeed possible

What is even more delightful is that earning this money requires no effort at all. There is no need for violence or any such actions; all one has to do is sit at a food stall late at night, order a few boxes of beer, enjoy some skewers, and shout a few lines from movies, or hire someone to enact a scene of "What are you looking at?" followed by "What are you going to do about it?" This can easily lead to generous tips, with airships and rockets soaring in the sky, making life quite comfortable.

This idea is still in the brewing stage, but the live broadcast cannot be halted. What kind of program should we prepare for today

Although he was constantly complaining in his heart, as a professional broadcaster, Li Qiang still made an effort to maintain a smile on his face, continuing to chat with those wealthy patrons, trying his best to liven up the atmosphere, so that he could earn more tips later on

That is, hurry up and start the live broadcast, and also, later we will each take a direction, make sure to shoot steadily, don't produce a bunch of shaky footage, photography is an art, do you understand? Don't waste the expensive 80 million pixel super live broadcasting camera that I bought for you.

Oh?

Seeing his appearance, Li Qiang also became interested and quickly asked, "What is it?"

Upon hearing this word, Li Qiang immediately perked up, and the previous concerns were instantly cast aside. He patted Huang Mao on the shoulder and said, "Alright, let's do it this way. Quickly call and ask where your nephew is right now; we need to hurry over, or else we will miss the good show."

The blonde-haired youth, who had been spat on by Li Qiang, explained with difficulty: "I had no intention of helping those little brats bully anyone, Brother Qiang. We just went over to see the excitement, take a few photos, and shout a couple of phrases. We absolutely won't resort to violence; this shouldn't be a problem, right"

On the street, two or three tall and robust men walked side by side, wearing only white tank tops. Their bare arms were adorned with dazzling tattoos, complemented by gold chains around their necks and dark sunglasses on their faces, attracting countless glances and frightening many children along the way

Huang Mao smiled and leaned close to Li Qiang's ear, whispering: "Just now, my little nephew called me and said they are planning to teach a little brat a lesson..."

Holding the live streaming machine purchased at great expense, Brother Qiang, who has diligently studied several books on photography techniques, boasts in front of the high-definition camera, striving to stir up the atmosphere in the live stream room, enticing wealthy patrons to spend lavishly in support.

... ...

Huang Mao smiled and said, "Brother Qiang, you can rest assured. Those viewers don't understand anything; they just want to see some excitement. I just hired a team of internet trolls, and during the live broadcast, they will stir up the atmosphere. By then, those wealthy patrons will surely shower us with gifts."

Thank you for the airship gifted by my good friend, 66666666
