“That’s right, our trial broadcast is about to begin, but we still don’t know what conditions those platforms will offer us. By the way, which platform are we streaming on? It seems like our Boss hasn’t told us yet.”
Operations came over with a form at that moment to answer everyone’s questions.
“Mm, I know everyone must be wondering—when the time comes, which platform will we broadcast on, and what exactly is this new entertainment streaming model? I believe everyone has these questions. Today, Boss gave me a proposal that can answer these points, so if you have any questions, just ask.”
This was really timely—after all, they had a whole pile of questions waiting for answers.
“I-I-I have a question. Even though we’ve been recruited, we don’t actually know which platform we’ll be streaming on. Can you explain that?”
“Mm, as for the specific platform, it will be at the hospital. Also, I received word that the Note Platform is offering each of our streamers at least an A-level contract, maybe even S-level. What kind exactly, that will depend on what Boss says.”
“All A-level contracts and above? You know, other entertainment companies can only get B-level contracts, but we’re starting from A-level? That’s way too high-end!”
“Isn’t it? An A-level contract means the revenue split alone will be great for us!”
They started discussing among themselves. It seemed that being a streamer wasn’t such a bad thing, especially given the high salary.
People need to eat to live; anyone working does so for a paycheck, right? As long as the pay is high enough, where you work doesn’t matter at all.
“So that’s how it is. But I have another question. Even if we all have A-level contracts, don’t we need all sorts of accounts to be a streamer? And there’s the matter of building a personal IP, but we only know how to stream—how are we supposed to handle these other issues? Do we need to pay for them?”
A lot of people were worried about these issues, but Operations could answer everything—after all, this was his bread and butter. How could he not understand?
“Mm, here’s the situation: Boss said, if anyone wants to build their personal IP or accounts, Operations will handle it. All you need to do is cooperate.”
“And most importantly, you don’t need to pay a cent.”
After hearing these explanations, everyone wondered if they’d somehow joined a dream company.
They could understand it if you broke it down, but if you lumped all those terms together, it just sounded confusing.
“What’s going on here? Why does it sound like there are no downsides at all? And working with Bai Corp shouldn’t have any pitfalls, right?”
“Are you dumb? We’re already collaborating with Bai Corp, and you see how Miss Bai is getting along with our Boss. Do you think there could be a trap?”
“Exactly, are you the one with a hole in your head? If you don’t want to do such a good job, don’t drag us down.”
Seeing that everyone’s questions were answered, Operations began to introduce their upcoming itinerary, which would be the key to whether this company could officially launch.
“As long as you follow the plan I’m about to give you, there won’t be any problems.”
The streaming industry wasn’t an extremely lucrative field—at least, not yet. In the future, it could become wildly profitable.
Their trial broadcast would begin today. Operations had already registered all their accounts and built up their personal IPs, as well as set up the first round of traffic for their live rooms, all at a cost of roughly one million.
Because this industry was first discovered by Lin Guanqi, users on the short video platform and those seeing the promotions would be drawn in by curiosity. And once they gathered an audience, the real question would be how to monetize.
“What’s this thing? I heard it’s some kind of new streaming industry. Sounds interesting. Maybe I’ll check it out?”
“Ah, what’s there to see? Don’t bother, it’s just for show. Honestly, what’s the point of this new streaming entertainment? Looks pretty useless.”
“Hey, let’s take a look anyway. It might actually be fun!”
With that, the two of them went in for a look, and sure enough, what they saw inside was pretty entertaining.
“At this moment, lines of bullet comments floated across the screen.”
[Yo, what’s this new game? Pretty fun, huh!]
[But, looks like as long as you fulfill certain conditions, you can make the streamer do stuff. Hmm, kind of like watching clowns at a circus?]
[Send a lollipop flower and you get a dance. Not bad, that’s actually kind of fun!]
[A single flower or a heart is only three yuan. That’s pretty affordable. And with the platform’s cut, how much could these streamers possibly earn? Three yuan for a dance—my ex-girlfriend wouldn’t have dared to dream of that!]
[Fine, I’ll spend the money!]
Maybe they’d hit on something people cared about, because these kinds of live rooms quickly became popular, and every one of them was under their company. No matter which one you went to, you’d make money.
And with guaranteed minimums, the streamers naturally worked with all their might.
“Thank you to this brother for the gift! Next, I’ll sing a song for you!”
“Thank you to this brother for the gift! We’ll dance for you now!”
“Thank you to this brother for the gift. I have nothing else to offer, so I’ll give you a kiss.”
Lin Guanqi watched everyone’s performance backstage and was extremely satisfied.
He hadn’t expected everyone to get the hang of it so quickly.
Their lines, their words, their delivery—none of it looked like they were first-time streamers. It was as if they’d been streaming in a past life and hadn’t forgotten a thing.
“You know, this entertainment streamer business really has potential. Look at how much they enjoy their jobs. And all those gifts people send—seems like it’s actually pretty profitable.”
That’s right, this was just the start. If it really took off later,
With a tweak to their marketing strategy, the earnings could skyrocket.
Everything you could see now was just surface-level.
The real profits hadn’t shown up yet.
“I told you my project had potential, didn’t I? But listen, the industry hasn’t even hit its boom period yet. Even before the boom, we’re bringing in this kind of revenue. Imagine how much it’ll be worth in the future!”
Those words weren’t wrong at all.
If the so-called boom really arrived, maybe they really could make a fortune.
Bai Ningbing might not care about money, but seeing the person she liked making money made her genuinely happy.
