Chapter 66p1
Yes, a normal three-year-old baby couldn’t possibly understand [666], [520], and [1314].
So when the first emoticon comment [(づ￣3￣ )づ╭?～] appeared, it was followed by an era of emoticon dominance.
Happy and friendly emoticons flooded the screen, quickly taking over. The audience’s enthusiasm for interaction exceeded Wei Maomao’s expectations, she could barely see herself in the background through the gaps between the characters.
Although she was touched, what Wei Maomao wanted was more information!
No… perhaps she did gain some information. It seemed these viewers watching the live broadcast had a good impression of her? Although Wei Maomao didn’t care much about her image, if it was a live broadcast, having a good relationship with the audience would undoubtedly make things easier for her.
Seeing that her two live streams were already covered with various emoticons, thankfully, Liu Ming had introduced her to how to switch to other people’s live streams earlier, providing her with the possibility of obtaining more information from elsewhere.
And so, the viewers in Wei Maomao’s live stream saw the adorable little chubby bunny squatting on the ground, her chubby, white paws swiping quickly and nimbly on Liu Ming’s phone, randomly switching between different live streams and fixed camera positions. This made the viewers who wanted to catch a glimpse of CEO Mao anxious.
The viewers who were watching other guests’ live streams, unaware that Wei Maomao had a live stream phone, were chatting normally when suddenly, a wave of emoticons invaded, briefly taking over the screen, then the emoticon army abruptly left, leaving only a few stragglers to explain what had happened.
Wei Maomao tried to gather information about the current public opinion from other live streams, then switched to the next one when the emoticons caught up. But as she switched, Wei Maomao felt something was wrong, the emoticons were getting closer and closer, it felt like there were more and more people…
Of course there were more and more people, every time Wei Maomao visited a live stream, the emoticon army recruited new members, after a round, all the viewers knew they could interact.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
By the eighth or ninth minute, Wei Maomao could no longer find a live stream where people were still discussing other things, they were all filled with emoticon comments. But eight or nine minutes were enough for her to see quite a lot.
Just from the number of viewers displayed in the top right corner of the live streams, she could see many things.
The combined number of viewers in Cheng Feiying and Cheng Rongrong’s live streams wasn’t even a fraction of Cheng Tingyan’s…
Cheng Rongrong’s live stream was slightly better, while Cheng Feiying’s was quite dismal. The few comments that appeared were mostly expressing dissatisfaction towards him.
In contrast, Cheng Tingyan’s live stream was lively, with most of the comments praising her cuteness, and many even asking her to get a phone and interact with them directly. Mmm… As for those comments asking Cheng Tingyan to move closer to the bedsheet so they could take screenshots, Wei Maomao just pretended she didn’t see them.
It seemed Cheng Tingyan had a very good relationship with the audience, and the audience had also witnessed Cheng Feiying’s favoritism and unstable emotions.
Overall, the public opinion, which Wei Maomao was most concerned about, was much better than she had expected. As long as this continued, she believed that when Yan Yan left the Cheng family, most of the public would be on her side.
The situation in other live streams was as Wei Maomao had guessed. Because it was a live broadcast, the conflicts were clearly visible.
If in her previous life, Jin Youliang had maliciously edited and created problems for the sake of generating buzz, then in this life, the live broadcast was a magnifying glass, exposing the pre-existing problems in detail.
Wei Maomao didn’t know how to evaluate the current situation. But… She and Cheng Tingyan had definitely benefited from it.
It’s just…
Wei Maomao looked at the occasional words mixed in with the emoticons and numbers… [Chubby Bunny Cult], [CEO Mao], [Bunny Gate]… Ah, she felt like there was something strange mixed in with the audience’s enthusiastic love.
But now wasn’t the time to dwell on these things.
Seeing that the ten minutes were almost up, Wei Maomao switched back to her own live stream and, pretending to accidentally touch the screen, clicked on an ad.
Speaking of Liu Ming, while eating her lunch, she still remembered to ask a colleague for a phone so she could keep an eye on the time.
Although children couldn’t understand anything, there was no need to be so strict with the time limit. But they were on live broadcast after all, since they had said ten minutes, they had to stick to it.
Just as Liu Ming finished the last bite of her food, right on the 9 minute 30 second mark, thinking about taking a sip of water and wiping her mouth before asking for the phone back, a cheerful jingle played behind her, getting closer and closer as she chewed faster.
“Sister Mingming, it’s broken…”
The familiar soft, childish voice, with a hint of grievance, rang out behind Liu Ming, and a chubby, white hand reached out in front of her.
She craned her neck and swallowed.
Liu Ming felt like crying, she had only been doing this job for a few days, and she was already a pro at swallowing food whole.
“It’s not broken, it’s not broken, it’s okay.” Liu Ming put down her lunchbox, took the phone, wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, turned around, and comforted the seemingly frightened little baby. “Look, this is an ad. When you watch TV, don’t they sometimes show these short clips? It’s not broken, you just accidentally clicked on the ad next to it, just wait for a bit, it’ll finish playing by itself, and it’ll go back to where you were watching before.”
“Oh, an ad.” Wei Maomao nodded, the nervousness on her face easing, then she tilted her head curiously. “Why are there ads in our live stream?”
“Because our live stream has viewers, placing ads where there are viewers, we can earn money.”
Wei Maomao was trying to lead Liu Ming into saying more about the ads when Shen Zilin’s voice suddenly appeared behind her, startling her.
She wasn’t the only one who was startled.
Shen Zilin watched as the little chubby girl, who was standing perfectly still, suddenly bounced like a ball, he also took a step back in fright.
They were both surprised, but Wei Maomao recovered first.
“Money…” Wei Maomao, following Shen Zilin’s words, turned around as she spoke, but the words she was about to say caught in her throat when she saw what Shen Zilin was holding in his hand.
“Yes, it’s called advertising revenue. Businesses place ads in our live stream, and when the viewers in our live stream click on the ads, the program team earns money. The program team will then share a portion of this money with us, it’s income in addition to our appearance fee for participating in the show.” Shen Zilin, to cover up his awkwardness from being scared by Wei Maomao earlier, quickly offered a professional explanation, then extended his right hand. “Maomao, eat.”
Liu Ming: “… “
“… I’m not eating.” Wei Maomao put her hands behind her back, refusing to take it, and changed the subject. “That… the ad I accidentally clicked on earlier, mmm… we’ll also get money, right?”
“Yes.” Shen Zilin nodded, but his right hand moved closer. “Maomao, eat, it’s very sweet.”
Shen Zilin also found it strange, Cheng Tingyan usually took good care of Maomao, even willing to dig for hours for her, why wasn’t she doing anything today? And Wen Dongyu too, he was always calling her “Boss,” why wasn’t he paying attention to Maomao now, just focusing on his own food?
Sigh, it seemed that this very young partner couldn’t manage without him.
Shen Zilin sighed inwardly, but his hand moved swiftly, bringing the watermelon directly to Wei Maomao’s mouth. “You love eating watermelon so much, why aren’t you eating? Okay, okay, I know you little girls are afraid of getting your hands dirty, I’ll hold it, you just eat.”
Wei Maomao: “… “
Liu Ming: “… “
Ah, although he was young, his words truly had the air of a domineering CEO.
Liu Ming quietly tiptoed away, retreating to the side. This conversation about appearance fees and advertising revenue was too sensitive, she had to get out of there.
She did retreat, but not far.
As soon as Liu Ming moved from in front of the camera to behind it, she saw…
“I don’t… Mmm…”
Liu Ming, watching as Wei Maomao, who was about to speak, was stuffed with a piece of watermelon by Shen Zilin, felt a headache coming on. Ah… He actually just…
As expected, don’t try to reason with a domineering CEO, because he will make you speechless.
Liu Ming regretted retreating too early. But she couldn’t tell Shen Zilin directly in front of the camera…
Honestly, after last night’s incident, Wei Maomao didn’t want to eat watermelon again until she was four years old.
But…
Mmm…
So sweet~~
Although this watermelon wasn’t as good as the half she had yesterday afternoon, it was… also very sweet~~
Her three-year-old taste buds surrendered.
Just as Wei Maomao, forced to hold the piece of watermelon in her mouth, decided to take a bite, Wen Dongyu’s large head appeared next to her.
“Boss can’t eat watermelon, she’ll wet the bed if she eats watermelon.” Wen Dongyu whispered to Shen Zilin, covering his mouth with his hand.
Shen Zilin: “… “
Wei Maomao could feel Shen Zilin’s shock. Not to mention his flushed face and wide eyes, even the piece of watermelon he was holding trembled, splashing watermelon juice all over her teeth.
“… “ Wei Maomao glanced at the microphone securely clipped to Wen Dongyu’s collar, then, with a blank expression, bit off the piece of watermelon.
“Boss, are you okay?” Wen Dongyu, looking at the watermelon missing its tip, asked worriedly.
“Heh…” Wei Maomao felt like she couldn’t stay here any longer, she turned and took two steps, then hesitated, turned back to look at Shen Zilin, and asked, “You said earlier that we get paid for participating in the show, and we also get a share of the advertising revenue, right?”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Shen Zilin was still stunned by Wen Dongyu’s earlier statement, he didn’t even think about why Wei Maomao was asking the same question again, just nodded instinctively.
Wei Maomao, repaying kindness with kindness, turned to Wen Dongyu and said, “You have your own money now, you can spend your own money, you don’t have to borrow from anyone.”
After saying that, Wei Maomao turned and left.
This was her last act of kindness!
The last one!
Unlike Wen Dongyu, who was still confused, the viewers in the live broadcast room instantly understood what Wei Maomao meant.
“CEO Mao is so kind, even at a time like this, she’s still thinking about comforting Wen Dongdong~~~ CEO Mao is truly the best little bunny in the world! No regrets joining the Bunny Gate!”
“Hahaha, the person above, you’re killing me, ‘at a time like this,’ what time, when her bed-wetting history was exposed? Wen Dongdong, seriously, he’s going to get beaten for this, hahaha!”
“When Shen Zilin said, ‘I know you little girls are afraid of getting your hands dirty, I’ll hold it, you just eat,’ he was truly domineering, hahaha, like those straight male CEOs on TV. But in the next second, he was embarrassed by Wen Dongdong’s words, his face turned red, he didn’t look like a CEO anymore, he looked dumbfounded, hahaha!”
“Sharing a funny story. When the dads arrived earlier and saw the cute bunny bedsheet drying, they asked Wei Chengli, but he stammered and didn’t answer. Just from that stammering, the dads figured it out. Then Wang Qingchuan casually tricked Wen Dongyu, and they all knew the culprit and the details. Only the babies were still in the dark. Earlier, when the program team brought out the watermelon, no one mentioned getting CEO Mao to eat it. Only Shen Zilin, hahaha, he looked left and right, especially at Yan Yan and Dongdong, and probably seeing that they weren’t making a move, took the watermelon and ran over.”
“Hahaha, he initially wanted to build a relationship with his future partner, now they might have become enemies.”
“Yueyue also wanted to take the watermelon to CEO Mao, but Yan Yan stopped her. Yan Yan probably didn’t expect Shen Zilin to be so friendly and quick, hahaha, she didn’t even have time to react…”
“It would have been fine if it was a few days later, but it was just… CEO Mao probably has a watermelon phobia now, poor thing.”
“It’s a pity CEO Mao is only three years old and can’t read, otherwise, we could have comforted her… It’s okay, our memories only last for a few decades, after a few decades, we’ll forget about this, really, don’t worry too much.”
“Hahaha, the person above, don’t be so mean. And the internet’s memory lasts longer than a few decades.”
“Speaking of, I tried to comfort her with emoticons earlier, I hope CEO Mao can read my mind, sob, sob, sob~~~”
“Poor Yan Yan, she looks so guilty now, CEO Mao approached her, but she didn’t even dare to look at her, hahaha, is she thinking about that half watermelon from yesterday again?”
“Of course, our CEO Mao still has watermelon juice on her chin, if it was usual, Yan Yan’s little handkerchief would have already appeared.”
“Why is Yan Yan feeling guilty! Just like Director Wei said, CEO Mao only has eyes for you, a little bed-wetting, she wouldn’t mind!”
“??? That… isn’t exactly ‘a little’…”
“It truly is ‘a little’! Our CEO Mao doesn’t care at all, she’s saying, she’s saying that with the advertising revenue, she can take better care of Yan Yan! Our CEO Mao truly! I’m going to cry!”
