Volume 3: Taking Roots 2016 Chapter 518: In the spotlight again
Mo Zi came to the stage, feeling a little light-headed. Her recent life experiences seemed to have been a blessing in disguise, as if she had suddenly reached the pinnacle of her life. It was a dreamlike feeling that was not quite real.
Before this, even if you were a professional player and had participated in professional competitions, the competitions had limited attention and could only attract a certain amount of attention in a small range.
Even though she has been a professional player since she was 17 years old, she has never been well-known. In addition to playing professionally, she has also worked as a part-time model to make a living. She has been struggling to make ends meet for so many years.
It was originally thought that women's e-sports might be a breakthrough, but it turned out to be only a flash in the pan and ended up being disbanded sadly.
What Zhou Xing'er didn't expect was that it was at this time that she reached a turning point in her life and was invited to join the company Little People Media.
Even though he was just a small anchor at the beginning, he had a generous income guarantee as a basis, and he also got the promise of his boss Zhou Dongsheng to return to the professional arena.
Therefore, while insisting on doing live broadcasts, Zhou Xing'er also strives to regain her talent for shooting games through the game project PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.
After all, the opportunity that made Zhou Xing'er choose to become a professional player was when she won the CrossFire Hundred Cities League championship.
Later, joining the League of Legends women's team was just a helpless choice under the trend of the times. After all, except for a very small number of professional players who can stand out, other professional players also need to make a living.
Such transformation and cross-game choices are not uncommon among professional players.
Back to the shooting game project, Zhou Xing'er was determined to prove herself and worked very hard in training, so she soon won the title of "technical female anchor" among the PUBG anchors.
Some viewers even gave her the nickname "Miss Ayi of the PUBG version". After all, among the technical female anchors who are currently in the limelight, the first one to be nicknamed is this Shark Queen.
However, Zhou Xing'er didn't expect that before she had the chance to prove herself with her strength, she became an instant hit after accidentally unpacking a box while playing duo with her boss and pulling out a golden 98K!
In just a few days, not only did the popularity of his live broadcast room skyrocket, but the number of subscribers also skyrocketed, increasing by hundreds of thousands in one day, and directly exceeding one million the next day.
As a result, his Douyin short video account gained over one million followers, and a photo of himself in which some netizen photoshopped his head into a glittering European emperor went viral on the Internet.
Not only did netizens have a great time playing it, but even a host of lucky draw hosts decisively arranged it.
Are you still putting "Good Luck" in the lottery? Then you are out of date. The latest popular lottery metaphysics is to pray to the emperor of luck. Just put Mo Zi's picture of the emperor of luck on the big screen, and your sincerity will work!
Especially after the launch of the "European Emperor Challenge", a large number of netizens and anchors have participated in this topic. As the number of participants increases, the probability of winning naturally increases.
Like a blind cat catching a dead mouse, there will always be a few lucky ones who guess it right and then post it on the "European Emperor Challenge", attracting more people to follow suit.
In this trend of everyone playing with memes, Zhou Xing'er suddenly got the traffic that she had always dreamed of.
Suddenly getting something you have longed for is a dreamlike happiness that no one would think is real.
What Zhou Xing'er didn't expect was that this million-dollar prize within the company actually fell on her head. This was really double happiness.
She took the cardboard from Xu Kaidao and the light check for 1 million seemed like a true reflection of her inner feelings at the moment, so light that it seemed unreal.
I couldn't help but look down at the audience. The looks from my colleagues at Little People Media were very complicated. Some were envious, some expressed sincere blessings, and some were unable to let go.
It's like they are sitting at an award ceremony, watching others take away the final grand prize, but before the suspense is revealed, each of them could have been the winner.
Who can remain indifferent to millions of cash? And it is naturally unpleasant to have someone take away your money in front of you.
Especially for several of the strong competitors who are closest to the goal, their feelings are the most complicated.
At the same time, Huang Haoze's live camera off the stage faithfully recorded this moment, and the barrage in the live broadcast room instantly sparked a heated discussion.
"Fuck, I got a million dollars already? That's awesome."
"This is truly a fantastic company. I'm going to prepare my resume right now. I must join them!"
"She is indeed a lucky person. Not only did she win the lottery, she also won the most important grand prize of this year's meeting."
"He's just like a walking koi fish, trying to get some luck..."
"I've decided. I'll print out the European Emperor's map right now and worship it once every morning and evening. This way, I'll get rich sooner or later!"
"666, good idea, if my wall doesn't obey me, then you will!"
Before we knew it, Huang Haoze's live broadcast room had reached hundreds of thousands of fans. At the same time, everything faithfully recorded in the room quickly began to spread, attracting more attention on the Internet.
Whether it is the fairy-like annual meeting of Xiaorenwu Media or Mo Zi's reputation as the European Emperor, they have been spread once again, which has invisibly accumulated a large wave of heat and popularity for her.
Even Zhou Dongsheng has gained a lot of presence and become known by more netizens. Fame and influence can only be achieved through gradual accumulation and fermentation.
At the annual meeting, Zhou Xing'er gave a standard acceptance speech, thanked Zhou Dongsheng as usual, and then happily left the stage.
After returning to his seat, Zhou Shuyi came up to him with an envious look on her face. "Fuck, Mozi, you are so awesome. It's so cool to get 1 million directly..."
"I didn't expect this would happen to me. I'm still a little confused now." Zhou Xing'er said with pretended reserve. As for how happy she was in her heart, only she herself knew.
"This is incredible, you're on the rise, sister. Don't forget each other when you become rich and powerful. We joined the company together..." Zhou Shuyi decisively chose to cling to the thigh.
Zhou Dongsheng, who was standing on the stage, swept away the disappointed faces of the audience, smiled continuously, and spoke slowly.
"I guess many brothers and sisters feel that this is unfair and that the award is biased. After all, Mo Zi is a duo with me and has received traffic from the company. She is one of the star anchors that the company focuses on training..."
Zhou Dongsheng's words hit the nail on the head and many people in the audience felt a little embarrassed, but they really thought so in their hearts. With the boss's support, shouldn't I be able to do it too?
“But it’s true. But, the original intention of setting up this award is that I am very optimistic about the future development of short videos. Therefore, I not only made an investment, but also encouraged everyone in the company to create and output short video content…”
"In order to maintain this original intention, this internal award of the company will remain valid and will be presented at the annual meeting every year. Of course, the selection rules will also be adjusted appropriately..."
"After all, I have paid for it, so I still have the final say. Of course, one principle remains unchanged, and that is fairness, fairness, and damn fairness!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the colleagues in the audience looked at each other, and then they reacted and shouted to the boss three times in a row, "Long live the boss!" "The boss is so generous!" "I love you, boss!"
This time, the voices were obviously louder and more unified, and the annual meeting ended happily for everyone.
