Internet moguls are being held hostage by the entertainment system!

Chapter 257 Two Billionaires Deliver Takeout?
"Didn't I tell you not to make phone calls? Don't you know I'm in a meeting? Thumbs down!"

Why didn't you call when you delivered the food?

"Brother, I haven't had lunch yet, and you're still late?"

"..."

In one hour, Wang Xin delivered five takeout orders, which allowed him to vent all the frustration he had accumulated over the past year.

Even so, when he's live streaming on his phone, he still has to maintain a composed demeanor and pretend to be indifferent while interacting with viewers.

"The delivery was supposed to be to the 6th floor, and there's no elevator. When I delivered it downstairs, it wasn't actually overdue yet, but it took me three minutes to climb the stairs, and then the system showed that it was overdue."

Wearing a mask, Wang Xin explained to the hundred or so viewers in the live stream.

He was on his way to the next order pickup location, so he had time to chat for a bit and also had a quick look at the live chat comments.

"You seem like this is your first time delivering food."

"Yes! This is indeed my first time delivering food today, so I'm not very skilled."

Wang Xin subconsciously tried to explain, but couldn't help thinking about why he had engaged in this absurd game with Chen Xiu.

In the end, he could only attribute it all to a fit of temper, a man's inherent competitive spirit.

As for the publicity effect that revealing the identity of the food delivery person brings to Meituan, it's just icing on the cake.

In Wang Xin's view, none of these things were as satisfying as winning against Chen Xiu!

However, the customer's irritable and impatient manner of speaking made him consider giving up.
I wonder how many orders Chen Xiu has delivered so far?

Wang Xin thought to himself, then glanced at Luo Shikan, who was also wearing a Meituan delivery uniform, riding a bike alongside him, accompanying him the whole time, but not delivering food.

He had just seen the other person take out their phone and operate it, and figured it was probably to report the battle situation to Chen Xiu.

Unfortunately, I didn't remind my assistant when I started delivering the meals, otherwise I would know the progress on Chen Xiu's side by now.

……

"Hello! This is your takeout, please check it."

Wearing a yellow robe, a yellow safety helmet, and a mask, Chen Xiu, speaking Mandarin with a Sichuan-Chongqing accent, promptly handed a fast food meal to a female office worker.

The female office worker received the food and was about to say thank you when she turned around and saw another deliveryman following closely behind Chen Xiu.

"Are there two of you delivering my food?"

"Oh, this is my first day at work, so could you please show me the way? I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long?"

Upon hearing his words, the female office worker simply said thank you and left with her takeout.

Chen Xiu's Sichuan-Chongqing accent, coupled with her yellow delivery uniform, was the best disguise.

This method of faking a Sichuan-Chongqing accent was inspired by Jiang Qiming's accented performance when Chen Xiu watched the newcomers rehearse their scenes at Datang Film Studio a few days ago.

And you know what? After delivering a few takeout orders, almost no one gave him a second glance, let alone suspected his identity.

After all, no one would have imagined that a billionaire, a top celebrity, and a handsome man would be delivering food.

After delivering the order, he strolled out of the office building, completely ignoring Wang Xin's assistant who was following behind him. He only politely reminded Wang Xin to keep his distance when she entered the live stream camera's view.

Chen Xiu couldn't use her verified celebrity account for her live stream; this account was a newly registered one.

Stepping out of the office building, he no longer suppressed his voice and started chatting with viewers in the live stream.

"Successfully completed the 7th order. Next, I'm going to grab the next one."

"Yes! I'm delivering a bit slowly. The weather is getting warmer now, the snow is melting, and the ground is slippery. It's safer to ride slowly."

"Yes, thank you for your encouragement. I will try my best to deliver the meals within the specified time so that the system won't deduct money from my pay."

Chen Xiu chatted with the viewers in the live stream, her words were concise and her logic was clear, and her Sichuan and Chongqing accent even had a touch of humor.

With these favorable conditions, the number of viewers in his live stream quietly reached 1000 and continues to increase.

The large number of netizens paying attention is also thanks to the recent popularity of the TV series "Eternal Love". The official account of the production team updates the preview clips of tomorrow's episodes every day, which has really brought a huge wave of traffic to Douyin.

After finishing her interaction with netizens, Chen Xiu placed her phone on the bracket of her electric scooter and prepared to head to the next food pickup location.

However, the message from Luo Shikan made him stop starting the engine.

"Boss, Mr. Wang spilled the food he delivered and got a bit upset after being criticized by the customer. He wants to end the meeting early."

"Where are you now?"

After sending the message, Chen Xiu cancelled the order she had just received.

After Luo Shikan explained his location, Chen Xiu turned the handlebars of the electric scooter half a turn and sped off.

Seeing this, Wang Xin's assistant had no choice but to hurriedly drive his electric car to catch up.

As he followed behind Chen Xiu's car, feeling the cold wind, he couldn't help but wonder: He was so relaxed when he was delivering food just now, why is he suddenly so stressed now? Could it be that Boss Wang's orders have exceeded his?

……

Five minutes ago, Wang Xin delivered a bowl of noodle soup to the customer's building.

However, when braking, the slippery ground caused the takeout food hanging on the handlebars to collide with the electric bike, and some of the soup spilled out of the takeout box and gathered in a corner of the plastic bag.

Carrying the takeout, Wang Xin looked at the spilled soup and thought: It's about 10ml spilled, it shouldn't affect the consumption, right?
Wang Xin glanced upstairs somewhat guiltily, hesitated for a moment, and then, to avoid exceeding the time limit, stepped onto the stairs, sincerely hoping that the customer who ordered the food was a reasonable person.

"Are you kidding me?! The soup's all spilled, how am I supposed to eat this?"

Seeing the customer's furrowed brows and gloomy expression, Wang Xin explained, "I'm sorry, the delivery was bumped just now, it shouldn't affect the taste..."

"You bumped into my food and said it didn't affect the taste? I want you to pay me back!"

"Ah? This..."

"If you don't compensate me, I'll give you a bad review, then apply for a refund, and then call Meituan to complain about you." Hearing this, Wang Xin couldn't help but feel both angry and amused, thinking to himself, "Someone actually called to complain about me, the boss of Meituan?"

However, he then thought that revealing his identity would be too undignified, and it was really not worth it for a few dollars for takeout.

"Okay, how much is this takeout? I'll reimburse you."

"Ok?"

The man glanced at Wang Xin in surprise and said, "Including delivery fee, it's 18 yuan. Transfer it to my Alipay account."

"it is good."

Wang Xin froze as soon as he finished speaking, because his phone was live-streaming and he had no money on it to accept orders...

"I'm sorry, you should request a refund instead!"

"what?"

"Please apply for a refund and let Meituan deduct the money from my account."

"Why do you talk like that, delivery driver? You've made it seem like I'm the one in the wrong."

Wang Xin's usual way of speaking sounded like a lecture from a company superior to the customers ordering food, immediately triggering their rebellious and resistant feelings.

The person involved did not feel that they had done anything wrong.

"This takeout food was indeed spilled. I think it's reasonable for you to request a refund. Is there any other problem?"

The man stared at Wang Xin for a long time, then cursed, "You stupid idiot, you can't even deliver the food properly," and slammed the door shut.

Staring at the closed door, Wang Xin remained silent for a long time, thinking: What am I doing? Oh well, I don't really want to win anymore.

He put his phone, which was still streaming, into his pocket, turned to Luo Shikan, and whispered, "Send a message to your boss! Tell him I lost this game."

"Ok."

Luo Shikan took out his phone to send a message to Chen Xiu, then rode his bicycle behind Wang Xin, heading together towards the starting point of this game, the Wenhua Hotel.

Because of the different delivery distances, Chen Xiu and Wang Xin arrived at the electric vehicle parking area near the Wen Hua Hotel at almost the same time.

After parking her electric scooter, Chen Xiu held her phone and chatted with viewers in the live stream as she walked towards Wang Xin.

"Today's delivery is almost over. Although it's a little shorter than expected, this experience is still very meaningful."

When she said this, Chen Xiu stopped pretending to have a Sichuan or Chongqing accent and used her normal accent.

The more than 1000 viewers in the live stream noticed the change in his voice and expressed their doubts in the chat.

Why has your voice changed?

"You speak a bit like Chen Xiu! Your eyes are similar too..."

"Could you please take off your mask?"

"..."

The comments section was filled with messages, and Chen Xiu had already arrived at Wang Xin's side.

"Old Wang, how was your experience today?"

"good……"

Wang Xin casually brushed it off, and before he was even halfway out, he saw the live stream that Chen Xiu was still watching.

His live stream is still ongoing...

The two huddled together and walked towards the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, their two phones side by side, both cameras capturing them in the frame.

However, compared to the bustling atmosphere in Chen Xiu's live stream, the number of viewers in Wang Xin's live stream had dropped to just a few dozen.

The comments on Chen Xiu's screen were still pouring in, and the number of online viewers was rapidly increasing. Some netizens had already begun to speculate that they were filming a reality show.

As the barrage of questions drew closer to the truth, and with the entrance to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel so close at hand, Chen Xiu knew it was time to drop her disguise, or she wouldn't be able to get into the hotel.

He turned and winked at Wang Xin as a signal, and Wang Xin took off his mask and helmet first.

"Hello everyone, this is Chen Xiu. You guessed it, I am indeed delivering food!"

Chen Xiu's admission was frank and open, and the viewers in the live stream typed like crazy, with all sorts of comments flying by as if they had a speed booster.

Many netizens who heard the news quickly flooded into the live stream, keeping the number of online viewers constantly updated.

Soon, the comments started to notice Wang Xin, who was walking next to Chen Xiu and still wearing a mask, and people were asking who he was.

Chen Xiu could see the comments on the screen clearly, and so could Wang Xin.

Chen Xiu used facial recognition, and the two entered the hotel without any hindrance.

Wang Xin hesitated for a moment, then took off his mask and, imitating Chen Xiu's gesture, greeted the live stream audience.

"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Xin, and I'm delivering food today too!"

Wang Xin's fame is far less than Chen Xiu's.

Many netizens only pay attention to the entertainment industry and not the internet industry, so the comments they post are asking who he is.

However, among the 5000 real-time online users, there are still some who recognize Wang Xin.

"He's the CEO of Meituan!"

"Wang Xin and Chen Xiu are delivering food? Am I dreaming?"

“They really did go to deliver food, and they did it for more than an hour. The live stream is proof of that.”
