Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 350 You've been using all those tricks of yours on dating, haven't you?

Yan Li didn't really know how much money her mother had.

Twenty or thirty million US dollars, maybe, maybe not.

After Lin Lang went to attend to other matters, Yan Li called her mother.

"Twenty or thirty million US dollars? What does Lin Lang want to do? If he needs a quota, Tianjin Capital can provide it, right?"

Yan Li said, "They probably want to make some kind of investment. Tianjin Capital's quota is targeted."

"Is he planning to do trend trading? He had An'an help him open a dollar account and a brokerage account at the same time."

"He didn't say, but a small amount of money certainly won't have much of an impact."

Yan Li understood this very well. After all, 70% of the funds in Tianjin Global Selection were their own. Lin Lang wasn't stupid; he also owned 40% of the money in Tianjin Capital. There was no reason for him to harm the interests of Tianjin Global Selection for the sake of 20 to 30 million US dollars in principal.

As long as it doesn't harm Tianjin Global Selection's interests, it won't have any impact on me.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with your dad."

……

After hanging up the phone, Chen Lin went to Yan Keming at Xinglan No. 1 Courtyard and told him about the matter.

"It's a good thing that Lin Lang asked to borrow money, and it's in his personal capacity, not in the name of Tianjin Capital. How many US dollars do we have left?"

Yan Keming asked a question.

He wasn't too concerned about getting US dollars.

If he needs to invest in foreign companies or if some domestic companies need to raise funds in US dollars, he can find foreign exchange channels.

This type of investment-type foreign exchange is not difficult for him.

Transferring it to a private name is not only troublesome, but also involves numerous procedures when going out and requires special reporting upon returning.

You don't have to come back, but what can you do if you don't come back?

Money only has value if it can be spent; otherwise, it's just a string of numbers. He can't possibly find a way out for himself by running away abroad.

Given his family's connections, he shouldn't have ended up like this, and he never does anything that leaves no room for compromise.

"I only have 20 million US dollars here, but I had some US dollars invested in wealth management products before, about 30 million US dollars, that's all."

"Then let's give it all to Lin Lang. It's a waste for us to keep the money in our hands to invest. Lending more to Lin Lang will make it easier to talk to him about our relationship later. The fact that Lin Lang was able to get Guan Sheng and Luo Ze to help him find pension funds shows that they are determined to stand with Tianjin Capital. Regardless of Lin Lang's relationship with Li Li, making things more comfortable for Lin Lang at this time will only benefit Tianjin Capital."

"What is Lili thinking? She hasn't confronted An'an yet."

Chen Lin had wanted to bring this up for a long time. Normally, after the parents of both sides met, Yan Li should have finalized the matter and kicked Shen An'an out of their relationship.

Yan Keming sighed and said, "She's reluctant to part with her. Lili still cares about An'an a lot, but she knows what's important and won't do anything foolish about this."

"Okay, then I'll sort out the financial records over there tonight and transfer them to Lin Lang tomorrow."

……

"I've been telling you for ages, do you know what to do now?"

Lin Lang was speaking to Lin Hui.

Lin Hui said, "I understand. It's about pretending to argue with Brother Bo, then going to other big streamers' live streams to give them gifts, and then getting people from those big streamers' live streams to cause trouble for Brother Bo and sabotage him..."

What is the crux of this matter?

"Give me the money. As long as you successfully snipe Brother Bo, you can come to me for the money."

"The key is that you need to establish yourself as a tycoon! Wang Bo's business is not directly related to you, but your tycoon persona cannot be compromised, understand? If others don't recognize you as a tycoon, everything you do is meaningless!"

"Bro, what should a tycoon do?"

"You don't need to pretend you're rich, drive luxury cars, or live in mansions. Those things are useless. According to the script, all you need to do is, after issuing the invitation, go do your own thing. Your thing is to play games, find people to play with you, and after they carry you to victory, you send them red envelopes (cash gifts). In your spare time, settle accounts with Wang Bo, understand?"

Lin Hui: "..."

Lin Lang didn't necessarily want to find Lin Hui. On one hand, Lin Hui loved playing games, which fit his character profile.

Another aspect is that even if Lin Hui doesn't seem like a real tycoon, as long as he keeps giving money away, his persona won't collapse, and he won't do anything outrageous.

Having a stable public image is also an advantage.

He doesn't go out for casual sex, doesn't brag about his luxury cars and mansions, and doesn't improvise; he just plays video games.

He's such a worthless scumbag, he doesn't even know what it feels like to drift.

Once Wang Bo arrives, he will keep an eye on Lin Hui and familiarize him with today's procedures. After that, he can simply follow the instructions.

Overall, it's not difficult.

At noon, when Lin Lang was having lunch with Yan Li, he learned that Yan Li's mother was expected to be able to come up with 50 million US dollars, which would arrive in the account the next day.

This is equivalent to giving him double the leverage again.

For Lin Lang, it's still in the early stages, and there's no better financial product this year than Bitcoin, not even options with leverage up to 100 times.

Bitcoin also has options with leverage of up to 100x, but Lin Lang didn't dare to play them.

On the one hand, amplifying one's own funds a hundredfold can significantly disrupt the market; on the other hand, even a slight fluctuation can completely wipe out one's investment.

With this additional fifty million dollars, I'll have a principal of one hundred million dollars in a couple of days, which is enough.

Only families like Yan Li's are truly powerful; ordinary wealthy people don't actually have that many resources.

In the afternoon, Wang Bo came to sign the contract. Immediately afterwards, Lin Lang took him to a pre-prepared live streaming room, where he registered and verified a Douyu streamer account and started the live stream.

Wang Bo was no stranger to live streaming. According to Lin Lang's script, he would start by playing slowly, and Lin Hui would come to find him later.

Meanwhile, the screen recording department at Big Fish Media had already arranged for accounts to be used.

Once it was almost time to start, Lin Lang and Yan Li went to Lin Hui's room.

Yan Li was really curious about this matter. She wanted to see how Lin Lang managed to cultivate a top-tier streamer in such a short time.

At first, Lin Hui entered Wang Bo's live stream and saw a title that said, "One membership card will get you a chicken dinner (first place) in one game, or you'll get three games back if you don't win."

Lin Hui got a card and spent six yuan.

Then the game proceeded as normal...

Yan Li wasn't interested in the game, and after failing to win in one round, Wang Bo had no choice but to continue playing with Lin Hui...

It still didn't work... They played from 2 PM to 4:30 PM until Lin Hui finally couldn't take it anymore and started cursing Wang Bo for being such a bad streamer.

Wang Bo's side is also furious. He said that he offered to play five games for six yuan, but the other party was still not satisfied and even asked the brothers in the live stream to judge the matter...

In reality, there was no one in the live stream room at all; the screen recording team simply created a secondary account to go there.

Enraged, Lin Hui went directly to the live stream of the most popular PUBG streamer on a certain platform and gifted him ten Super Rockets, completely stunning the streamer.

The big gifts in live streams are usually from influential figures; they're either sent by guilds or obtained in advance through connections with high-spending individuals. Genuine, unsolicited gifts are considered large, with a few hundred yuan being the most valuable.

As a result, shortly after starting the broadcast today, someone suddenly gifted me 20,000 yuan.

"Thanks, Brother Hui! Thanks, boss! Want to play a game together for a bit, boss?"

"I'm not playing the game anymore. Just help me find someone. There's this guy on your platform called 'Brother Bo.' Take your buddies and queue up against him. Once you're matched with him, kill him. For every kill, I'll give you a Super Rocket. If you kill Brother Bo, just send me a private message with screenshots of the kill and your account information. I'll give you VIP 3000."

"What? Bro, did someone offend you?"

"You handle it yourself, I'm going to call people from other live streams..."

Soon, Lin Hui went to another live stream and used the same tactic, immediately sending 20,000 yuan worth of gifts.

These gifts are broadcast across the entire platform, and the first streamer who sees them has only one thought in their mind.

Damn it, all of these should be mine.

So, I immediately searched for that Brother Bo's live stream and found that he was just a small Kalami, with only a few people in the live stream. He was still trying to trick people into signing up and joining the group, so I made up my mind.

He swiped a credit card for Wang Bo and said, "Hey buddy, wanna play a game?"

"Holy crap, it's Fei-ge! Fei-ge, are you going to give me a hand?"

"Huh? Right, right, right... Let's start it quickly, just the two of us playing a duo game."

"It's all set. With Fei-ge as our strong backer, there's absolutely no problem."

Soon, Wang Bo started the game.

However, the game had just begun. After parachuting and landing, the streamer immediately shot Wang Bo with a gun and finished him off right away...

"Brother Fei, please don't mess with me..."

"Brother, it's really not that I wanted to mess with you, but the bounty someone offered was too tempting. Thanks, thanks..."

In the live stream of popular streamer Fei Ge, the chat was instantly flooded with comments condemning Fei Ge's shameless behavior.

"If you do it like this, do you think people will accept it?"

"Whether they acknowledge it or not, it's only right to help Brother Hui vent his anger with ten Super Fires."

As soon as Fei Ge finished speaking, he immediately received three more Super Fires from Lin Hui.

Then Lin Hui said, "Sure! I still have a million in my account. Whoever gets it before Brother Bo goes offline tonight keeps it."

Meanwhile, the news had already reached the second major streamer's livestream room where Lin Hui had given a donation.

The people who watch live streams are the ones who love to have fun. The point of live streaming is to create entertaining content, and now that entertainment has been delivered right to their doorstep.

Most importantly, they actually paid.

In no time, Wang Bo's live broadcast room was flooded with a large number of onlookers.

After seeing the comments on the screen, Wang Bo said, "Holy crap, I only accepted one membership card."

"If I had known he was this awesome, I would have worked myself to death to play with him."

"Brother Hui, Master Hui, this is all a misunderstanding. How about I keep playing with you, Bo-di? You can play as long as you want."

……

Lin Hui: "Stop talking nonsense. You think I'm bad? I'll find you someone who isn't bad! As long as you can get a chicken dinner while they're sniping you, I'll give you twenty Super Rockets as a reward for each chicken dinner you get!"

"really?"

"You'll definitely get yours! Let's agree on a time before each game starts so we can be matched together."

"Fine, I'm going all in!"

A nationwide sniping game quickly began at this pace.

To avoid being betrayed by his teammates, Wang Bo entered the game alone and refused to be matched with random teammates.

Yan Li watched from the side. After Lin Hui entered Wang Bo's live broadcast room, he could see that there were already over a thousand people in Wang Bo's live broadcast room.

Can it be done?
At this point, as long as you keep having money, you'll succeed!
A game only costs five thousand yuan, because Wang Bo has no chance of getting a reward of forty thousand yuan.

Even if Wang Bo is killed by others very quickly after entering the game, the various preparation stages plus the game waiting stage mean that a game will take at least ten minutes.

In that case, there are six games per hour, each game costs 5,000 yuan, so the total cost would only be 30,000 yuan.

Broadcasting for five hours a day costs no more than 150,000 yuan.

As the situation unfolds, the number of onlookers in Wang Bo's live stream will only increase.

Lin Lang's marketing was perfect.

The inherent fun of the event is immediately enhanced, and coupled with its competitive nature and low barrier to entry, it's impossible to say how many people will participate.

"I just don't know how many people will stay. According to your script, you have enough traffic, but a streamer still needs to rely on their own conversion rate to gain a foothold."

Yan Li said something.

Lin Lang said, "There's no need for a strong conversion, because it's not the core itself."

"He's not? Then who is?"

"Lin Hui, his 'tycoon' persona will become more and more solid as he spends more and more money. When he starts a live stream, people will naturally come... Then it's very simple. He can take over the show's effect, find a few people to play games with him, and each person can get 1000 V1000 as long as they can help him win. This way, the cost will be minimized, but the popularity will increase because more people will want to help him."

"Ok?"

Lin Lang continued, "And then there's Wang Bo. This kind of show can go on forever. Initially, the cost seems high, maybe 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per hour, but after a few days, the format can be changed because he can't win the game alone. That way, he can invite other big streamers to participate and split the prize money. For example, if three more streamers join, and the four of them win, Lin Hui's side will give each of their livestreams five Super Rockets, and the viewers who come to snipe him will get a 1,250 yuan bonus for killing any one of them..."

Previously, with Wang Bo alone, he'd probably die as soon as he landed, and it would take five or six rounds an hour. Now that there are four people, a game, including preparation time, will take at least twenty minutes or even longer. This reduces the cost, and viewers are more engaged. After all, before, you could only kill Wang Bo, but now killing any of the four will earn you a prize, increasing your chances of winning and boosting your participation. This show will only become more and more popular..."

Yan Li: "..."

"You're not using all that cunning in your relationships, are you?"
