I'm live-streaming Pokémon science popularization on New World.

Chapter 91 The Long-Awaited Live Broadcast

Li Hao's return was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating a gentle ripple amidst the busyness.

This rare free time also reminded Lin Dao of the passionate couple he had encountered on the high-speed train to the capital, Yu Qin and Wang Jiajia.

Their words of reminder still ring in my ears: "Teacher Lin, don't forget about us old friends!"

They had represented many fans in requesting that Lin Dao "take some time to stream," and Lin Dao had solemnly agreed at the time.

Promises should not be forgotten.

That evening, Lin Dao and Li Hao hit it off and decided to find an ordinary conference room at the headquarters of the Pokémon Culture Communication and Development Group, which was known as the "Poké Ball Building," to start the live broadcast.

The screen of the account operated by Li Hao, which has now become the only official live streaming room for "Pokémon Realm", suddenly lit up.

Although the official policy has gradually relaxed, allowing people to upload videos of their daily lives, fun interactions, and even battles related to Pokémon on various platforms, the "live streaming" permissions remain restricted due to the need to control unforeseen circumstances.

Due to the difficulty of real-time content review and considerations regarding initial guidance and guidelines, it has not yet been officially and fully launched to the public.

The specific timetable is still under discussion among the various ministries.

Therefore, when the notification that Li Hao's live stream had started was pushed to hundreds of millions of users instantly via a special platform push (given its special nature and massive user base), the resulting effect was explosive.

Many viewers don't even wait for it intentionally; they simply treat it as a high-quality, officially endorsed "Pokémon special" to watch replays or highlight clips anytime.

But tonight will be different.

At 8 p.m. sharp, the live stream screen lit up.

The familiar conference room background, the two familiar figures, and that long-awaited opening line that instantly ignites the memories of countless longtime viewers: "Hello everyone, I am Lin Dao."

"I am Li Hao."

What excited the audience even more was the addition of a bright, clear, and energetic voice.

"Pikachu!"

On Lin Dao's shoulder, the well-known electric mouse was facing the camera, puffing out its little chest and waving its tiny paws. The electric sacs on its cheeks flickered with tiny electric sparks, and its bright black eyes were full of excitement.

It specifically requested to participate in tonight's live broadcast!

The original "resident mascot of the live broadcast room," the snake-patterned bear, expressed full understanding and even relief.

It was lazily sprawled on the cushion at the other end of the conference table, with several fragrant berries and energy cubes in front of it. It was slowly munching on them while giving the energetic Pikachu a tolerant look, as if saying, "Big brother, give way to little brother to show off."

"Oh my god!! Am I seeing things? Teacher Lin! It's Teacher Lin herself broadcasting?!"

"The title isn't 'Brother Hao Takes You to See Pokémon' anymore? Has the main character changed today?"

"Pikachu! It's a live Pikachu streaming! I'm so excited!"

"I cried. Has Teacher Lin's evening classes finally resumed?"

"Snake-striped bear: Already lying down, don't mention it."

"Breaking news! Live broadcast from the forest trails! Come watch!"

The barrage of comments flooded the screen like a burst dam, instantly overwhelming the entire display and making it almost impossible to see the image clearly.

The number of viewers skyrocketed at an astonishing rate.

News about "Lindao Live" spread exponentially across major social media platforms and chat groups.

Even though the platform had already equipped Li Hao's account with far superior server resources and support team due to its special nature, at this moment, the surging torrent of data still almost overwhelmed the dam.

The backend alarms blared, and the technical team, sweating profusely, frantically worked to divert and expand the bandwidth, barely managing to stabilize this unprecedented live stream.

News notifications came in quick succession, and even many news programs outside of entertainment hours aired brief reports.

On the other end of the network, signals crossing national borders quietly flooded in, and various foreign language comments began to appear.

Clearly, the audience interested in "Lindao Live" extends far beyond China.

After a short while, Lin Dao adjusted to the long-unseen live stream camera and watched the barrage of comments on the screen, filled with countless surprises and greetings, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

Behind these IDs are the original group of "veteran" fans who were willing to believe in him, follow him, and explore the unknown together, as well as new friends who joined later because of various deeds and publicity.

Soon, a comment with a special prefix and particularly excited tone caught Lin Dao's attention:

[Young Master Yu, who's always ready to fight in the capital]: "Teacher Lin! It's me! Yu Qin! The one from the high-speed train! You really started broadcasting! Jiajia and I are watching!"

This comment was mixed in with the sea of ​​information and was not very eye-catching, but Lin Dao caught it with his extraordinary dynamic vision.

A genuine smile spread across his face as he said to the camera, "I saw a viewer named Yu Qin post a comment."

"Yes, Yu Qin, and your girlfriend Wang Jiajia, I remember you. I ran into you on the high-speed train to Beijing a while ago, and you reminded me not to forget that I still have so many friends who have always supported me and are waiting for me to share my knowledge and experiences."

He paused, his tone sincere.

"I've been incredibly busy lately, with the construction of Xinyuan City, various cooperation negotiations, and scientific research support—I feel like I have to split myself into eight pieces to keep up. But I always remember what I promised. Today I finally have a little free time, and Li Hao just happened to be back, so we thought we should at least check in with everyone, have a chat, and fulfill our promise."

"Thank you for reminding me, and thank you to all the friends who have been patiently waiting."

These words were like a warm breeze sweeping across an icy plain, instantly bringing the atmosphere in the live stream to a new climax.

Longtime viewers flooded the comments with messages like "tears welling up," "my youth is back," and "Teacher Lin, we will always support you." New viewers were touched by this sincerity, and their affection for Lin Dao skyrocketed.

At this moment, in a high-end apartment in the capital, Yu Qin, who had just finished reviewing Pokémon knowledge and was about to take a break, was scrolling through his tablet when he saw that Lin Dao had actually "followed up" and responded to his comment. He was so excited that he almost jumped up from his chair.

He frantically closed the webpage where he was about to give a tip (discovering that Lin Dao had turned off the gift function before the broadcast started), and shouted towards the bathroom, "Jiajia! Jiajia! Come out quickly! Teacher Lin has started his broadcast! He even mentioned us!"

The sound of water in the bathroom suddenly stopped, and less than three minutes later, Wang Jiajia, wrapped in a bath towel and with her hair still wet, rushed out, her face also full of excitement: "Really? Let me see!"

The young couple huddled in front of the tablet, their eyes glued to the screen, their hearts filled with the joy of being remembered and recognized by their idol.

The live stream unfolded in an exceptionally enthusiastic yet nostalgic atmosphere.
