Fishing Livestream
Chapter 135 - 135 135 The Fishing Master

135: Chapter 135: The Fishing Master 135: Chapter 135: The Fishing Master The doll’s suggestion was old-fashioned but classic, similar to the game of hot potato, where the music randomly stops, and whoever holds the handkerchief when it stops gets to go onstage.

It was perfect for a small to mid-sized gathering, with no element of danger and a great way of taking some pressure off the host, helping to build the atmosphere.

The system detected the keyphrase for tossing the handkerchief, and the smart script immediately adjusted accordingly.

“Alright, let’s do it as you suggested!

But what should we use as the signal to stop?”

“Of course, play some music!

The host turns their back, stops the music at random, whoever has the handkerchief, they perform!

Fair and square.”

“Does anyone have any objections?

I think it sounds good!”

“But what if I don’t have a talent?”

“Right, what if I can’t sing or dance or anything?”

Wen’er replied, “That’s easy, drink beer, two bottles at a time!

If you can’t drink beer, drink cola, one bottle at a time!”

“Ok!”

After agreeing on the rules, everyone quickly formed a circle, using a towel to replace the handkerchief, and everyone, including Wen’er, took a seat to the side.

Su Cheng took the microphone in the center, “Hello everyone, I am Wen’er’s friend, my name is Su Cheng, and I’m very happy to meet all of you!

I’ll be taking over the hosting duties now!

Handsome guy, just play any song, I’ll say stop, and we stop!”

A shout for ‘handsome guy’ made Qiangzi’s bones go soft, he gestured an ‘ok’ ready to leap into action.

The handkerchief was passed to Yue Feng, who didn’t take it seriously, but in a moment of distraction, the intro music began to play.

Before he even heard the singer start, the music suddenly stopped and the prop was still in Yue Feng’s hands!

“Damn!

It stopped just like that!” Yue Feng scratched his head.

The crowd burst into laughter, Su Cheng was definitely setting up Yue Feng on purpose!

“Isn’t it up to me?

Who says the intro can’t stop?

You gotta accept the loss if you gamble!”

Su Cheng made her point, and both the livestream and the audience were thrown into disarray.

It wasn’t often they got to see Yue Feng at a disadvantage, and they hadn’t expected this beautiful girl to put Yue Feng in his place right off the bat.

Ding!

The smart script adjusted, randomly triggered an original song, the accompanying music was already auto-generated, and confirmed to auto-load!

Yue Feng saw that the system had automatically generated an original song.

“The Fishing Hero”

Damn, Peak State is so badass, to have such a thematically appropriate song.

Compared to this, the previous ‘Liang Liang’ is simply trash.

Now you may ask, does Yue Feng read music?

Of course not, but that didn’t matter at all.

As the music loaded in his mind, all the lyrics and tunes appeared in his head, that’s how user-friendly Peak State is.

“Ah, I accept the loss, it’s me, I’ll take it!

Guys, I just prepared an original song to hum for everyone, don’t laugh if it’s not good!”

After saying this, Yue Feng found the pre-loaded accompaniment in the phone’s music library and, after discussing with Qiangzi, copied it into the device.

With the previous performance of ‘Liang Liang’ as a reference, everyone was looking forward to Yue Feng’s announcement that he had even prepared an original.

They were excited, he really did his homework in advance!

The original was all set!

“Before we sing, guys, shouldn’t we get some shares and double-taps on the little red heart in the live stream going?

This is a premiere, you know!” Having dealt with the formalities, Yue Feng shamelessly started soliciting shares and clicks from his live stream buddies.

With the atmosphere already set, what else could everyone do?

Just go with it, shares in the live stream skyrocketed, and the little red hearts soared to over 200,000, pushing the live room’s popularity above 90% of all similar broadcasters.

After taking care of the sharing and the double-taps, Yue Feng signaled to Qiangzi, and the accompaniment started playing.

The wind and sand blew in the sky,

The morning glow crowned my head,

With a brave heart, I venture into the world,

Pursuing virtue and tea to companion my soul.

The scorching sun scars the sky,

Through stars and moons, the years I ply.

Worldly clamor I hear not, only whispers near,

Alone in this world, under heaven I’ve no peer.

I am a grand hero of fishing delights,

With neither sword nor steed, I unite.

…

An utterly unfamiliar arrangement, with completely new lyrics, Yue Feng didn’t mention the name of the song before singing.

It took a few lines for everyone to realize that it was dedicated to fishermen.

The lyrics were down-to-earth and the melody was catchy, encapsulating the fishermen’ majestic and carefree spirits alike.

At such a gathered occasion of fishermen singing live, the effect was almost multiplied several times over.

The fishermen who were laughing and chatting just moments ago, paused after hearing a particular line, suddenly quieting down as an indescribable emotion welled up from within.

This “Fisherman Hero” was just over three minutes long, and soon Yue Feng finished performing – the audience below fell silent.

Big Liu beside the barbecue grill was so entranced that he sniffled, forgetting to flip the skewers, until they were burnt.

It was unclear who first started clapping, but then nearly twenty people started clapping furiously.

The situation in the live-streaming room was similar to live, and even though it was live singing, the microphone and various live-streaming hi-tech effects were turned on, making the experience even better than being there in person.

“Damn!

Yue Feng can really sing, it’s making my heart surge!”

“Goddamn, a surge of heroism born out of nothing, I’m a hero too!”

“This song is going to be a hit!”

“Yue Feng is so talented, fishing is beneath him!”

Love for power and for beauty sends lollipop x1031

Love for power and for beauty: I kneel to Brother Feng, all my Virtual Coin gone, Yue Feng mighty and domineering!

Little Bean sends Beer x33

Little Bean: Virtual Coin emptied as well, cheering for Yue Feng!

Wen’er sends out little stars x131

Nanshan sends lollipop x39

At first, it was just a few people spontaneously giving gifts, but after Love for power and for beauty, along with Little Bean, announced that they emptied their Virtual Coin balance in the chat, nearly all the touched viewers in the room spontaneously joined in.

Virtual Coin is the currency used for gifting, which can be obtained through top-ups or participating in various treasure chest events.

Most viewers are usually freeloaders, supporting their favorite streamers only occasionally, almost never topping up on their own.

For those well-versed with the platform, by snatching treasures from the Cloud Piercing Arrow chest, Divine Dragon chest, etc., one accumulates a small savings of Virtual Coins.

Now, these viewers were thoroughly conquered by Yue Feng.

Lollipops cost one Virtual Coin each with a recharge price of ten cents, and beers cost ten Virtual Coins, amounting to one yuan.

These small gifts are common and inexpensive, but they’re also the result of viewers’ careful saving, which they all now enthusiastically emptied for Yue Feng.

Never underestimate these seemingly unimportant gifts; like grains of sand forming towers, or tufts of fur becoming fursuits, when the gifting crowd numbers in the hundreds and thousands, the total amount is quite impressive.

Yue Feng glanced at his backend statistics, now the number of viewers gifting in the room exceeded 3,000 and was still increasing.

Impressing big spenders is no great feat; they are abundant, and 30,000 or 50,000 is nothing to them.

But to make usually stingy die-hard fans spontaneously empty their wallets – this round, Yue Feng truly hit the big time.
