Kapitel 20: PS-Chapter 20 No Place for Me Here
''System Notification: Lu Fei's Live Streaming has been temporarily suspended for violating regulations. Please contact the administrator if you have any questions.''
Not to mention Lu Chen, even any ordinary person with a normal IQ would not naively think that the system notification about the suspension was due to genuinely violating any rules.
He had refused the signing request, so Super Admin 002 had directly banned him!
How domineering is that?
It's just like that!
Lu Chen felt a surge of anger, gripping his mouse tightly. He exerted immense willpower to avoid smashing the mouse, as breaking things out of anger is a sign of incompetence.
Taking a deep breath, he forced himself to calm down.
''StarryLive'' is a leading platform in the domestic online live-streaming industry, with user numbers and influence surpassing several established platforms, especially in entertainment and performance shows, where it excels.
So, it naturally had the privilege to be unreasonable, and banning a small streamer was nothing to them.
Want to earn money here? Then you must follow our rules.
This system notification was clearly telling Lu Chen—follow us and prosper, go against us, and perish!
It's that simple!
Lu Chen had no choice. If he didn't submit, his budding career on ''StarryLive'' would suffer a devastating blow, cutting off an important source of income.
Should he bow to their demands and sign the harsh contract?
Lu Chen first opened a small software on his computer, selected full-screen recording, and then clicked on the administrator prompt in the system notification.
The chat window popped up again, with the dialogue ID still being Super Admin 002.
Super Admin 002: "Is there something you need help with?"
Even through the computer and network, Lu Chen could sense the administrator's smug satisfaction.
He replied calmly, "I'd like to inquire why my live streaming has been suspended."
Super Admin 002: "Because you violated the regulations."
Lu Chen: "Which regulations? The one where not signing an unreasonable contract results in a ban?"
Super Admin 002: "You can understand it that way; it's our company's policy."
Super Admin 002: "Think carefully. It's not too late to reconsider."
Lu Chen: "I've thought it through."
Super Admin 002: "Well, then, go ahead."
Lu Chen: "Go to hell!"
Super Admin 002: "What?"
Lu Chen: "I said, go to hell! Go to hell! Go to hell!"
Important things need to be said three times. After sending the message, Lu Chen directly closed the chat window.
He didn't give the administrator a chance to respond, letting that person stew in frustration!
Lu Chen's mood cleared up instantly, his frustration dissipated as if he had opened up new pathways in his mind or undergone a thorough cleansing. He felt remarkably at ease.
It's no big deal. If ''StarryLive'' doesn't work out, there are other platforms like ''Sky Live Streaming'', ''Whale TV'', and ''Star Dream Adventure''. There will always be places where he can showcase his talents.
If there's no place for me here, there will be elsewhere!
Moreover, even if all online live-streaming platforms had the same issues, Lu Chen didn't believe that he would struggle to make money with his unique content. Why should he endure unfair treatment?
Lu Chen was very clear about his situation. As a newcomer without a background, the initial phase would be challenging, with many troubles and issues.
But he wasn't afraid because he was young and possessed a vast treasure from another world.
A sharp bayonet that could pierce through all obstacles in his path!
Resolute in his belief, Lu Chen left ''StarryLive'' without any regrets, completely ignoring the recent system notifications and chat windows. He then opened WeChat.
The Super Admin 002 must be fuming by now, Lu Chen thought as he logged into WeChat.
At the same time, 2,000 kilometers away in Shenhai City.
Shenhai is one of the largest cities in the country, with a population exceeding 15 million. Since the reform and opening-up, it has been an economic forefront of the Republic, giving rise to numerous innovative companies and tech giants, earning it the nickname the "Silicon Valley of the East."
''StarryLive'''s parent company, Starlight Media, is located in the CBD of Shenhai City, on the 68th floor of the 75-story Fortune Tower.
Two years ago, when Starlight Media was newly established, it had only 10 employees. The ''StarryLive'' platform struggled to survive among the many live-streaming giants and nearly went bankrupt several times.
However, after receiving investment from the well-known media group Orange Entertainment, ''StarryLive'' experienced explosive growth. Leveraging the financial resources and connections of Orange Entertainment, Starlight Media managed to outmuscle competitors like ''Sky Live Streaming'' and ''Whale TV'', poaching talent and eliminating rivals.
Today, ''StarryLive'' is one of the leading platforms in online live streaming, with an unshakable position!
Orange Entertainment, with its vast wealth, bought an entire floor of the Fortune Tower as Starlight Media's office space, causing a sensation in the industry and showcasing its ambitious vision.
Bang!
In the operations and management department of Starlight Media, a startling noise suddenly rang out.
Anyone familiar with computers could recognize it as the sound of a mouse being slammed onto the desk. Many people have experienced this.
When the boss battle loot gets stolen— slam the mouse!
When software crashes and you lose your document— slam the mouse!
After spending hours downloading a high-definition video, only to open it and find it's something else— slam the mouse!
Or when you try to use your home camera to check on your baby but see your neighbor Old Wang instead— slam the mouse!
Behind a desk, a pale-faced man cautiously poked his head out and asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"
He was addressing a middle-aged man in his forties, with a thin face, small eyes, and a hooked nose, his expression dark as if he'd just discovered Old Wang next door. The mouse in his hand had already "died."
This middle-aged man was none other than Zhao Deping, manager of the Operations and Management Department at Starlight Media. Because the company had an open-office layout, even managers sat with the employees rather than in private offices.
As the department manager, Zhao Deping not only handled departmental affairs but also frequently logged into [StarryLive] as a super admin, doing tasks typically assigned to regular admins.
His ID was Super Admin 002!
As for Admin 001, that was the boss's ID, which rarely appeared.
In response to the pale-faced man's question, Zhao Deping replied angrily, "Some small-time streamer with no respect. We offered him a contract, but instead of being grateful, he complained and insulted me!"
"What?"
The pale-faced man immediately grew indignant and shouted, "These newcomers have no manners at all. What's his ID? Let me ban him so he can see who's in charge!"
Zhao Deping waved him off and said, "ID: Lu Fei— 'Lu' as in the continent, and 'Fei' as in flying. I've already banned him. I'll send his information to everyone later. If he tries to start streaming again with a different account, ban him without mercy!"
The manager's face was full of rage, his voice dripping with venom.
He was truly furious. What small-time streamer wasn't overjoyed to get a contract with [StarryLive]? And they all treated the super admins, who held the power of life and death over them, with the utmost respect. Someone like Lu Fei, who was so arrogant, deserved to be banned for good!
The pale-faced man responded decisively, "Got it!"
"Lu Fei?"
At that moment, someone at a nearby desk poked their head out. It was a man wearing glasses.
"Is it the Lu Fei who plays guitar and writes original songs? I think I've seen his videos on StarCircle."
The man with glasses was going to add that Lu Fei's songs were quite good and had great potential on the platform.
But seeing Zhao Deping's dark expression, his limited social skills finally kicked in, and he wisely decided to keep that opinion to himself.
"Original songs, huh?"
Zhao Deping scoffed, his tone dripping with disdain. "There are thousands of vagabond singers streaming on our platform, many of them doing original content. We need real talent, not some upstart who doesn't know his place!"
The pale-faced man nodded in agreement. "The manager is absolutely right."
Satisfied, Zhao Deping glanced at the man with glasses and said, "Li, you may be an old employee, but there are still some things you need to learn from Wang. Don't spend all your time staring at the computer."
The man with glasses murmured something under his breath, while Wang, the pale-faced man, secretly gloated, though he kept a humble expression.
"Alright, I'm heading out!"
Zhao Deping stood up. "Wang, send out Lu Fei's information to everyone and delete all his related posts on the forum."
Wang immediately rushed over. "Got it, boss! The mission will be completed!"
Zhao Deping soon left, while Wang started typing furiously at his desk.
The man with glasses sighed quietly and sat back down.
Before Orange Entertainment's investment, Starlight Media was small but full of camaraderie. The super admins were often friends with the streamers, supporting and helping them grow.
Now, the company was much bigger and richer, but some things had been lost along the way.
Before his colleague could delete all the forum posts, the man with glasses secretly used his admin access to copy and save a complete backup of Lu Fei's StarCircle profile on his cloud drive.
Songs like "My Old Classmate" and "Cinderella" were ones he liked listening to.
They were the kind of songs that moved him and were worth preserving!
