They surrounded me right after the breakup.

In the evening, Qiu Siyao drove her brand-new Audi Q7 into the Bicui Manor.

The car body is Monsoon Gray, with the Black Gloss Package as an option.

The air intake grille and window frames have all been smoked black.

The matrix headlights lit up in the twilight, like the eyes of a beast opening.

She had just parked her car when Lin Yaoyao came out of the house to throw out the trash.

"Holy crap!"

Lin Yaoyao stood there, holding the trash bag, staring intently at the Q7.

"Yaoyao, you've gotten all excited! Got a new car?"

Qiu Siyao turned off the engine and got out of the car.

"I didn't buy it myself."

"???"

"This was a gift from Zhou Haidong of Chenxing; consider it an apology."

Lin Yaoyao almost dropped the trash bag in her hand.

"The CEO of that entertainment company?"

"Hmm... He and Song Wanning came to the branch today to apologize in person, bringing a lot of things."

"They won't leave unless I take them in."

Lin Yaoyao piled the trash bag on the doorway and walked around to the front of the car.

She bent down and glanced at the interior.

Virtual cockpit, dual central control screens, genuine leather seats with diamond stitching.

The top-of-the-line 3.0T model will cost at least 100,000 RMB on the road.

"Oh My God!"

Lin Yaoyao straightened up: "Didn't they already release an apology video?"

"Why did you go to your workplace?"

"What kind of operation is this, delivering a car?"

Qiu Siyao pressed the car key to lock the car, looking somewhat helpless.

"They forced it on us..."

Lin Yaoyao covered her face.

"So Jiang Han got all of this back for you?"

Qiu Siyao nodded and opened the trunk.

"Help me move my things."

The trunk was stuffed full of gift bags.

Hermès, Chanel, Cartier... in orange boxes

Haute couture gowns and limited-edition perfumes were stacked together in layers.

Lin Yaoyao picked up the Chanel bag and peeked inside.

"A limited edition for autumn/winter! I asked my mom to order it for me in Paris, but it hasn't arrived yet."

Lin Yaoyao helped carry the heaviest bags off the car, then suddenly tilted her head.

"Okay, I understand."

"I'll find an opportunity to get bumped into by someone later."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Lin Yaoyao carried the bag into the house, then turned back and made a face at Qiu Siyao.

"I'm not lying! You fall down and you get a luxury car."

"If I were to get a push from some female celebrity, I could easily extort a Ferrari from her."

……

The next day, Xingyue Media's first commercial live-streaming sales event officially kicked off.

Jianghan's reason is simple.

The Song Wanning incident dragged on for several days.

Several of the top ten trending topics on Weibo also had related keywords attached.

The apology video has already garnered over 100 million views, and the comments section is still buzzing with arguments.

It would be a waste not to handle such a large volume of traffic.

The live broadcast studio was set up in Studio 2 of the film and television city.

The ring lights were all on, and the display racks were arranged in three rows.

In order, they are beauty, fashion, and home decor.

The first host was Li Jiaqi.

Jiang Han leaned against the back-end monitoring screen.

Compared to the last time we met, Li Jiaqi was in a completely different state.

He stood with his back straight, flipping through the product list in his hand, occasionally looking up to confirm the sales pitch with the product selection team.

Five minutes before the broadcast started, nearly 30 online viewers flooded in.

The barrage of comments was so fast that it was impossible to read a single message.

"Front row to watch President Jiang's first live-streaming sales debut."

"I came from Song Wanning's apology video."

"I heard Mao Buyi and Phoenix Trumpchi will be singing?"

"I'm not here to sell goods, I'm here to see how President Jiang turns live-streaming e-commerce into a concert."

Li Jiaqi adjusted his headset and gave the camera his standard business smile.

The way she started the show was unlike any other live-streaming e-commerce host.

"Family members, welcome to Xingyue's first live-streaming sales event."

"Let's make it clear before we start selling products that all products undergo testing and ingredient analysis by the product selection team before being put on the shelves."

"We will refund any product that does not match the description, and we will cover the shipping costs."

"The live stream does not accept any form of fan manipulation of comments or ranking boosts."

Li Jiaqi put the product list aside.

"This is the rule set by President Jiang. Every live-streaming sales event will follow this standard from now on."

The comments section went silent for a moment before exploding.

"The first in the entire industry to put a return policy on air during a live stream before it even started."

"Unconditional returns mean exploding after-sales costs; President Jiang is using money to build trust."

Li Jiaqi picked up the first product, a matte lip gloss from a certain brand.

Before applying the link, I squeezed some onto the inside of my wrist and spread it with my fingers.

"This shade is called 'Rotten Tomato'!"

"It has an orange undertone and suits all skin tones."

"I'll show you the effect of applying a thin layer first, and then I'll try applying a thicker layer on the lips."

Li Jiaqi speaks very fast, but the pronunciation of each word is very clear.

"A light application is suitable for daily commutes, while a heavy application paired with a black dress is perfect for the red carpet."

"I've tested the staining effect; after drinking water, about 70% of the color remains."

"Don't believe what people say about it being completely non-stick; it's just a matter of how much sticks."

The comments section went crazy.

"Is this speaking speed for real?"

"Li Jiaqi, slow down, I'm taking notes."

"This is the first time I've seen a livestreaming host admit the product's shortcomings."

The products on the display rack are rotated in turn.

Serum, eyeshadow palette, face cream, body lotion.

He reads the ingredient list aloud for every new product before actually testing it.

Then proactively point out the product's advantages and disadvantages.

"It's moisturizing but feels quite sticky, so please don't buy it if you mind."

"It has strong coverage, but the shade is too yellow and warm-toned."

At the 30-minute mark, the real-time data from the backend reported a number that no one had expected.

The number of people online in real time has exceeded 180 million!

Liu Meng was watching the data screen in the back office, clutching the real-time sales list that had just been compiled.

She checked several times before turning to look at Jiang Han.

"All beauty products are sold out, and the stock level is three times that of normal sales."

Jiang Han's expression remained unchanged.

After all, this model has been validated by the market before.

"Have the product selection team bring up the products for the next session in advance."

In the live stream, Li Jiaqi had just finished applying her makeup and was about to introduce the next guest.

The stage lights suddenly switched to a deep blue.

Mao Buyi sat on a high stool on the side stage, holding a guitar, with a microphone in front of him.

There was no opening, and no product placement.

I tuned the strings and started singing.

The melody flowed slowly from the speakers, the sound still carrying a mellow, grainy quality.

"Mao Buyi is singing a new song!"

"We'll be performing our first song live!"

Mao Buyi bowed and left the stage after finishing his song.

The side table lights were changed to red, and Linghua and Zeng Yi walked out one after the other.

No microphones were used; the on-site sound recording equipment was used directly.

"Phoenix Motors is here too?"

"Didn't they get a seven-figure appearance fee for their last variety show appearance?"

"Singing for free in a live-streaming e-commerce room?"

"Have you forgotten whose artist this is? Mr. Jiang's!"

"At the boss's command, everyone was present."

Li Jiaqi stood to the side of the stage and waited for Linghua to finish singing her last song before returning to the camera.

At 10 p.m. that night, the live stream data was frozen.

The peak number of concurrent online users exceeded 300 million.

All product categories sold out, with sales exceeding 100 million yuan.

Industry media outlets rushed to publish articles overnight, each with an increasingly sensational headline.

The core meanings are highly similar.

Xingyue's performance in the MCN field is impeccable.

Jiang Han's phone rang right after the live stream ended.

It was an unfamiliar number, registered in Hangzhou.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Jiang Han? I am He Shaowen from the Taobao Live Business Department."
