Chapter 323: Chapter 232: He’s Really Giving Benefits to the Bros

Who?

Which tycoon is this?

Orange Media is a fairly well-known MCN. Why are they sucking up so hard now?

Of course, viewers who had seen the chat logs of "Peng City’s Most Devoted" all knew that the owner of the LC Golf Club, a tycoon worth billions, had just been crowned the renowned number one bootlicker.

So they were eager to educate the newcomers.

The stream was in an uproar for over ten minutes. Lin Chu was stunned to see that, under a massive deluge of Carnival gifts, his popularity had shot up the rankings, and his viewer count had surpassed one hundred thousand.

"Alright, let’s get started. Hello everyone, I’m Lin Chu. This is my first livestream, and since we’ve just met, I’ll start by giving away some freebies."

"For the first wave of giveaways: one Xiaomi SU7, one hundred Huawei phones, and one thousand Xiaomi speakers."

"Let’s do it."

Lin Chu said casually.

Instantly, a dense barrage of bullet comments flooded the screen.

"HOLY SHIT! BADASS! WHAT A TYCOON!"

"This guy’s a real tycoon!"

"PICK ME, PICK ME, PICK ME!"

"First time seeing a tycoon this generous. Is he really worth billions? He doesn’t look it, he’s so young."

"What do you think? He spent who knows how much money chasing a girl, and now he finally knows to show some love to us bros."

"Let’s go, bros!"

"What’s with that woman? Is she some kind of Su Daji, has she got our big bro under her spell?"

"President Lin is the man!"

"He’s really giving out goodies to the bros!"

...

The sheer variety of bullet comments made Lin Chu’s head spin.

’To be honest, this kind of online flexing during a livestream is much more convenient than doing it in person.’

’Holy crap, why didn’t I figure this out sooner?’

Tsk.

’I was too low-key before.’

"President Lin, your follower count has already passed two hundred thousand."

"Three group chats are already full."

His streaming assistant casually reminded him from the side.

One of the requirements he had set for the lottery was to follow his channel.

"Got it."

Lin Chu nodded with a smile.

...

「At this moment.」

Zhou Luan and her dad, Zhou Ming, were also at home on the sofa, watching Lin Chu’s livestream.

She had orchestrated this whole affair, so of course, she had to keep a close eye on it.

In fact, her phone had been blowing up all day. Almost every friend she’d ever known was calling and texting her, so many that the messages couldn’t even get through.

There was definitely some pressure.

But the sense of vanity also gave Zhou Luan immense satisfaction.

So much so that her head was now throbbing slightly from the overexcitement.

Now, this absurd carnival was coming to a perfect end. After Lin Chu finished his stream tonight, the next episode would begin tomorrow, and she, the "female lead," would make her glorious exit.

"Dad, have you noticed? He’s actually kind of handsome on screen."

Zhou Luan said with a grin, sitting cross-legged on the sofa with her bare feet.

"Hm, he is, a little."

Zhou Ming glanced at his daughter, sighing inwardly, but kept a smile on his face. "Have you had your fun? Did you have a good time?" he added.

"I did, it was so much fun! Hahaha, Dad, just let me be reckless this once. Look, as a rich, pretty girl, I’ve never caused you any trouble growing up, have I?"

"This will be the last time I act so willfully. And besides, it’s not really being willful, it’s a win-win."

"I promise, I’ll work hard from now on and try to get my golf club back as soon as possible."

Zhou Luan said with a beaming smile, wheedling as she tugged on her dad’s arm.

Zhou Ming’s smile grew even more fatherly. He asked with a chuckle, "Well, have you thought about how you’re going to interact with him after this?"

Zhou Luan wasn’t surprised by the question.

She had been thinking about it all day.

"Of course I have. After this, I’m definitely out of here. There’s no way I can stay at the golf club, even if I wanted to."

"Dad, I want to go work at an investment bank. Can you set it up for me?"

"Even though it used to be the kind of job I hated the most... well, I’ll go. The closer you are to money, the more likely you are to make big money. I want to go to Capital City. Can I?"

A look of gratification appeared on Zhou Ming’s face. His daughter had really grown up, and at such a low cost, with no real losses. From that perspective, he really had Lin Chu to thank.

"Alright, no problem. Dad will go pull some strings for you. Go get some good experience for a couple of years. Once I’ve dealt with the company’s debt and we have a clean company with nothing but net assets, you can come back, kick your feet up, and collect the profits. It’ll be more than enough for you to live a happy life."

"Mhm, mhm, mhm!"

"Okay!"

"You can do it, Dad!"

"Really... The things parents do for their children. You’ve worried yourself sick over your good-for-nothing daughter."

Zhou Luan gave a cute little fist pump.

Hearing her say that made Zhou Ming very happy.

"Alright, then let me tell you something else. But you have to promise me you won’t get mad first."

Huh?

Zhou Luan was slightly taken aback. "Okay, Dad. What is it?"

Zhou Ming smiled, picked up his phone, and made a call. "This is Zhou Ming. You can put it online now."

...

「Hanjing Building.」

It was one of Peng City’s landmark buildings.

Because its facade was a massive electronic screen, it often served as a city-landmark-level "billboard."

Especially at night.

When night fell, the words on the towering skyscraper’s entire exterior billboard would be reflected in the eyes of countless people.

Most of the time, the wall displayed the simple two words: Hanjing Building.

But today...

At this moment...

A line of text appeared on the building’s facade.

Lin Chu, I’m sorry. I wish you happiness.

As the words appeared, everyone within sight of the building immediately looked up.

The line of text caught the eyes of a young couple strolling in a nearby park.

"Wow!"

The girl looked up first, stunned for a moment, and let out a cry of amazement.

The boy followed her gaze, and when he understood, he shook his head and chuckled.

"Isn’t that about the ’Peng City’s Most Devoted’ guy?"

"Judging by the tone, it must be from the girl."

"Haha, rich people sure have their fun. But it has nothing to do with us."

The girl shot her boyfriend a look. "This is so romantic! One is hopelessly devoted, the other is staying true to herself. Hiss... it’s so bittersweet."

The boy...was speechless.

But he didn’t argue, just nodded with a smile.

’Fine, fine, whatever you say is right.’

...

「The Zhou Residence.」

Watching a video feed sent by her dad’s subordinate, Zhou Luan saw the huge line of text on the Hanjing Building. Her eyes revealed a hint of emotion, and she couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

Without a doubt, this was her dad cleaning up after her.

’For my sake, Dad really thinks of everything.’

’He even thought of this!’

The "unruly princess" persona wasn’t a huge problem; it would surely be forgotten over time, and it wouldn’t even take that long.

But...

doing this now was clearly a safer bet.

It was a small remedy for her public image.

Although it involved a slight loss of face, which was why he had told her not to get mad beforehand.

"Dad!"

"I... I really have to thank you. How much did it cost? I heard that kind of ad space costs millions for a single message. I’ll go get Lin Chu to reimburse me for it!"

Zhou Luan wanted to say something sentimental, but the words wouldn’t come out. It wasn’t her style, so she changed her tune.

Zhou Ming laughed heartily.

He jutted his chin towards the phone on the coffee table, which was still playing Lin Chu’s livestream. "I may not be as rich as him, but your old man can still afford this much."

"Look at him, he’s so shrewd. It seems he’s really caught this wave of traffic. His stream’s popularity is high, and he’s managing it all very logically."

"I guess... you could say we’ve given him an assist."

...
