"Congratulations to user 'Lin See Deer' for reaching VIP level 10, let's cheer for him!" A scrolling subtitle flashed three times on every live streaming room's page.
"Whoa, which tycoon just leveled up their VIP status?" Many users were veteran users of the Bamboo Live platform, well-acquainted with the regular big spenders, but the ID "Lin See Deer" seemed to be a first-time sight.
Quickly, a group of bored users began investigating this newly-minted level 10 VIP god. But they found that, although this account was registered two years ago, it had never spent any cash, only gifted a few hundred free bamboos at most.
"Damn, is it another case of someone embezzling company funds to show off as a big spender on the streaming platform?" someone speculated. After all, this kind of thing happened before, and such nouveau riche users certainly tend to arouse suspicion.
At that moment, Fang Jueyu, who had just completed a recharge, recovered from his trembling hands. He still couldn't believe it—he had just recharged 5 million into his live streaming platform account with the click of a button! An amount many families might not earn in a lifetime, and he did it just like that?
"Host, this is only the first step. You'll have plenty more opportunities to spend lavishly in the future, and you'll get used to it slowly."
"I know... It's just that being ordinary for so long, it's hard to adjust in an instant!" Anyway, it was vacation time, and the break had just started. It was the peak season for the live-streaming industry. Fang Jueyu habitually clicked into a game live stream room, one of his favorite streamers.
"Wow! What the flip, did you guys know this scoundrel ambushed me in the bushes for two minutes! Full two minutes, my goodness! Don't you want your jungle?" On the live screen, a chubby streamer angrily ranted, while various bullet comments floated across the screen.
"66666, Mr. Pu, where's the invincible tank you promised? How did it turn into a toy car? You didn't even know when you got run over!"
"Hahahahaha, this is too entertaining, I can eat another bowl!"
"Mr. Pu, hurry and fight back. The jungler took that kill, with so many last hits, the economic gap hasn't widened. Use your skills to come back!"
This chubby guy was one of the most popular game streamers on this platform. He was a former professional player, known as Mr. Pu, because of his humorous and witty streaming style, enjoyed high popularity on the platform.
"He's a dead man already! Watch me solo kill him!" With extremely skillful maneuvers, Mr. Pu outmatched his opponent in detail. Even after being ganked once, he still managed to kill the opponent with flair, surviving with less than twenty health left.
"Nice!"
"Mr. Pu, you're awesome! I want to have your babies!"
"666666, Mr. Pu's skills aren't lacking from back in the day!"
"Hehehe, I told you, I could definitely solo kill him. Gank me? No way!" Before Mr. Pu could relish his moment of triumph, a missile flew from the opposite bottom lane, hitting him precisely and taking him down.
"Oh no!" Mr. Pu jumped up in anger, even smoked the cigarette in reverse, and both he and his chair tumbled to the floor.
"Hahahahahahaha, thanks to Jinx for the rocket!"
"I'm laughing to death, someone save me, I need CPR!"
"A classic scene! Whichever big shot edits it into a parody for Bilibili tomorrow, I'll definitely give it a coin!"
...
In front of the screen, Fang Jueyu laughed himself silly at Mr. Pu's comedic twist. Having watched Mr. Pu for so long, even though it was part of the mission, he had to spend money on his favorite streamer!
"Lin See Deer gifted 99 pandas to streamer Mr. Pu!"
"Lin See Deer gifted 99 pandas to streamer Mr. Pu!"
"Lin See Deer gifted 99 pandas to streamer Mr. Pu!"
...
Ten identical messages flashed across the live streaming page. The originally fast-moving bullet screen exploded like a bomb, instantly bustling.
"Wow, what kind of operation is this! Gifted nearly 1,000 pandas at once? Just threw away 500,000 like that?"
"Hey big spender, is there room for an accessory on your leg?"
"I saw this ID before, it's the big shot who topped up to VIP level 10 just now!"
"Rich guy, I want to have your babies!"
"6666666, worship the big shot!"
...
Mr. Pu had just climbed back up from his chair. Seeing the full screen of gifts, he was startled. Though his stream didn't lack wealthy patrons, he had never seen anyone spend money like that on a whim.
As a big-time streamer, 500,000 wasn't particularly eye-catching for him, but a person casually spending that much couldn't be an ordinary person, right? Experienced as he was, Mr. Pu was always focused on more than just the surface.
"Thank you Lin See Deer for the 990 pandas, I'll add you as a moderator in a bit for fun!" Mr. Pu said, already thinking about making friends.
Soon enough, Fang Jueyu earned moderation privileges, and Mr. Pu sent him a private message.
"Bro, want to add on WeChat? We could drive cars together sometime!"
"Sure!" Fang Jueyu didn't hesitate and sent his WeChat ID over. "Mr. Pu, come to Shanghai when you're free, I'll treat you to dinner. I'm going to check out some other rooms!"
"Sure! Let's keep in touch on WeChat!"
"Lin See Deer gifted 99 pandas to streamer Mr. Pu!"
"Lin See Deer gifted 99 pandas to streamer Mr. Pu!"
...
As Fang Jueyu exited the room, he sent another 990 pandas, clueless about the scene left behind in the room.
"Hmm? Why is she streaming so early today?" Fang Jueyu opened his follow list. Besides Mr. Pu, another streamer's room was lit.
Xinyu was a talent streamer; Fang Jueyu saw her as a girl who loved playing the piano and singing after 10 p.m.
Her voice was melodious and sweet. Though her stream didn't attract many viewers, she was always punctual. And what intrigued people even more was that she had never shown her face.
Her singing was beautiful, and her piano skills impressive. But perhaps this was a world that judged by appearance, so compared to the top-tier female streamers, Xinyu didn't have such high popularity.
Today, Xinyu was wearing a black dress and was engrossed in singing an English song while playing the piano. As usual, Fang Jueyu rested his chin on his hands, quietly listening to her sing.
So why why why
Why should we waited
And I I I
I should be waiting
Waiting for someone new
Even though that it wasn't you
...
The lyrics made Fang Jueyu recall a lot of beautiful memories, and unknowingly, his eyes were a little misty.
```
The song ended, and Fang Jueyu was still lost in its charm, while the chat room's comments blew up—not because of Xinyu's fans, but because Fang Jueyu's arrival attracted a throng of spectators.
A level 10 VIP had some privileges, including system notifications every time they entered a stream. Many rushed in, hoping this mysterious tycoon would reward the streamer.
Normally, Xinyu's room only had a few thousand viewers, never exceeding twenty thousand. But with Fang Jueyu's arrival, the room's viewers skyrocketed to over one hundred thousand, and it was still climbing!
"So the tycoon likes this type of girl?"
"Hahaha, she isn't showing her face, could she be Grandma Qiao?"
"No, with my years of experience with women, this is definitely a beauty! Even without showing her face, those hands, those legs, she's got to be gorgeous!"
"This streamer sings so well, I don't care about anything else. Since Mr. Lu likes her, I'm following her!"
"Waiting for Mr. Lu to send gifts!"
"Waiting x10086!"
...
Xinyu's real name was Guo Xinyu. She didn't expect so many people to suddenly flood into her stream. Her family used to be well-off; otherwise, she couldn't have developed a skill like piano, which required lots of money.
However, her family's business later suffered major setbacks, and they ended up in significant debt. Now in college, she covered her living costs and tuition by live streaming.
She knew the streaming industry was a mixed bag, so she chose this method, but not showing her face meant many weren't interested, so her income wasn't great. After the platform's share, her monthly earnings barely covered living expenses, and the extra was just enough for tuition.
She didn't pay much attention to the streaming industry's happenings, streaming on schedule to play piano and sing without knowing why her room suddenly filled up with so many people discussing someone named Mr. Lu.
"Linshen Jialu gifts Panda x99 to streamer Xinyu!"
...
Spending a fortune, exactly 990 pandas, Guo Xinyu, sitting in front of the piano, covered her mouth, too shocked to speak.
990 pandas—each worth 500 yuan, nearly half a million. As a small streamer, the platform took 50% of the rewards, but she could still receive 250,000 yuan, more than she might earn in five consecutive years of streaming!
With this, her next two years of school expenses and tuition were covered. Not only that, she could even help ease her family's situation a bit. It felt like she was struck by Lady Luck herself.
"Why does this name sound so familiar?" Guo Xinyu hadn't heard of "Mr. Lu," but the ID "Linshen Jialu" seemed familiar. She had nearly fifty thousand followers, though only about 5,000 watched her streams daily.
She remembered regular visitors, and "Linshen Jialu" seemed like one who was there every day.
"Tha…thank you, Mr. Lu, for your gift. Thank you so much." For a moment, Guo Xinyu couldn't think of how else to express her gratitude.
"Whoa! The tycoon started again!"
"Mr. Lu, I don't have money for food today. Please treat me to a meal! My account is xxxxxxxxx!"
"I boldly predict, this streamer is going to blow up!"
"Coach, I want to learn piano too, I want to sing!"
...
As Guo Xinyu was still immersed in happiness, a comment in the chat made her emotions almost overflow into tears.
"I don't know what's happening around you, but from watching your streams for so long, I feel you're not very happy. I hope these gifts can help you a little, and I hope your songs and piano can become happy faster!"
"66666! Mr. Lu's not just rich, his charm is top-notch! I give this move full marks!"
"Wow, if I were the streamer, I'd be captivated in no time!"
"Why do I smell a whiff of romance here? Is it just my imagination?"
"Above, I smell it too. I sense a story unfolding!"
"Mm! I definitely will, thank you!" Guo Xinyu nodded, though no one could see. She wiped her tears and tried hard to calm down. "Mr. Lu, is there a song or piece you'd like to hear?"
"I'd like to hear 'River Flows in You,' if that's okay?" It was Fang Jueyu's favorite piano piece, bar none. He'd heard it many times in Xinyu's stream before, where her performance was perfect in intensity and emotion.
"Of course!" Guo Xinyu's slender hands began to caress the piano. She had played this piece at least a thousand times and knew it by heart. As the piano sounded, the entire room fell silent.
After the piece, Fang Jueyu, without hesitation, sent another Panda x99 series, causing another commotion in the chat room.
"Mr. Lu, I beg you, please donate some money to me!"
"Is there a big shot who can reveal what Mr. Lu does? Could he be some company's boss?"
"He's insanely rich. I just came from Mr. Park's stream where Mr. Lu gifted a million in gifts, and here he's done it again. Is he aiming to dominate the gift leaderboard today?"
"Sigh, after all, only two million was spent. Spending this ten million is truly tiring!" Fang Jueyu had recharged five million, but the system gave him ten thousand pandas. He actually only spent 2,000 pandas just now, merely two million. The ten million mission was still a long way off!
"Xinyu, I'm off to check other streams, see you tonight for your song!" Fang Jueyu typed on the public screen.
"Okay, same time at ten tonight, don't miss it!"
...
After exiting Xinyu's stream, Fang Jueyu resumed his grand mission of stream-hopping. Regardless of the streamer's popularity, as long as he was somewhat interested, he started with at least 99 pandas.
"Mm, this game's played pretty well!"
"Linshen Jialu gifts Panda x99 to streamer Jiangnan Gun King!"
"Although the face is heavily made, the singing is not bad!"
"Linshen Jialu gifts Panda x99 to streamer Little Sheep!"
"Whoa, what is this? A man made up like this? Sorry, my bad!"
"Hey, this is good. The shooting is superb. Is it some cheat? Why can't I control the recoil?"
...
Spending the whole afternoon on the streaming platform, Fang Jueyu finally completed the task of spending ten million. He was a bit numb himself, yet this platform witnessed a legend.
Someone named "Linshen Jialu," known as Mr. Lu, spent a staggering ten million within just three hours! He rewarded without looking at popularity, only by his liking, leaving the viewers to sum it up in four words: rich! capricious!
