Nearly a million people suddenly flooded the livestream.
Qin Muyan, who had just transitioned from an obscure streamer with fewer than three thousand followers to a top-tier influencer with a million viewers, was stunned.
Seeing that both Mech Girl and Qin Muyan were shocked by the terrifying number of viewers.
Meng Hao, who had been set as a VIP and whose comments were pinned in the chat, teased her with a chuckle.
"See? Livestreaming still needs a face!"
"After all, I'm a minority, a science guy obsessed with machines to the point of reaching the highest astral plane. Most gods are still swayed by looks."
"Aren't you going to say something to these new viewers?"
As more and more viewers poured into the livestream.
Meng Hao's heart was filled with joy.
Any low-probability event, when its base reaches a terrifying number, is bound to happen.
For example, the mech named Huayong Type I, which sold for three million Great Xia coins.
In front of such a massive audience, perhaps another three to five units could be sold.
Even if luck wasn't that good.
This would also lay the groundwork for the next step of investing heavily in online promotion.
It seemed that Meng Hao's chosen path of live-streaming sales and online platform promotion was entirely correct.
Huh? ... Huh?!
Facing Meng Hao's teasing.
The slightly dazed Qin Muyan finally snapped back to reality.
She was flusteredly greeting the audience who had suddenly flooded into the livestream, doing her best to interact with her fans.
At the same time, she "explained" to Meng Hao with a hint of娇嗔 (jiaocheng - coy/playfully complaining).
"Brother Hao, don't tease me."
"With my meager abilities, how could I possibly attract so many fans?"
"They must have seen the mechs produced by Huayong Industries online, and that's why they rushed over. Strictly speaking, they are your fans... I'm at most a livestream assistant!"
It had to be said.
The logical thinking of a science student was indeed powerful.
Qin Muyan was clear-headed, knowing her own limitations and understanding that it was impossible for her to attract this massive audience as fans coming for her sake.
Meng Hao chuckled.
He didn't argue further.
He naturally understood that these sudden, massive numbers of viewers were here for him.
The barrage of comments, so fast they were almost plastered on the wall, clearly indicated this.
"Holy crap, could the man with the clear and pleasant voice, known as Brother Hao, who is currently connected, be the boss of Huayong Industries!"
"Amazing! They managed to turn a mech registered as a toy by the industrial and commercial department into what the Bear Country calls the strongest ground military robot."
"Damn it, if it weren't for a god-like internet big shot releasing the news, I would never have imagined he would be connected with a female streamer here!"
"As expected, even heroes can't resist beauty... Huh? Who is this streamer? She's quite pretty. Why haven't I heard of her online before!"
"Uh, wasn't this female streamer just being a bit modest? Saying she only had 'three ounces of meat.' I've known countless women, and judging by her measurements, these exaggerated pectoral muscles are definitely more than three ounces..."
"..."
Seeing the livestream's tone about to go off track.
Meng Hao quickly helped Qin Muyan out of her predicament... Speaking of which, this girl's skin is too thin and needs training! Facing the audience's teasing, it's a skill possessed by top-tier streamers with millions of followers to shift the topic while being polite and humorous.
"To all the大哥大姐s who have just joined, I am indeed the boss of Huayong Industries..."
"Uh, however, I don't have a habit of hitting on female streamers. This 'Mech Girl' is a contracted streamer of our Huayong Industries..."
"Currently, our Huayong Industries is running a promotion. Products originally priced at 5 million US dollars can now be sold for 3 million, limited to four units, a loss-making advertisement..."
Seeing Meng Hao earnestly hawking his wares.
Qin Muyan blushed.
She quickly picked up Meng Hao's words and began introducing the products for sale in the livestream... Damn it, as a contracted streamer of Huayong Industries, she was letting her own boss come out to hawk products while she blushed and pretended to be innocent? ... Qin Muyan was not a green tea bitch who could hide more than a paper bag; she earned her living through hard work.
"Everyone, the mechs produced by Huayong Industries are the world's top toy mechs..."
"The mobility, endurance, and appearance of this mech are absolutely worth the price..."
"This livestream is for the merchant's promotional loss. The Huayong Type I mech model, originally priced at 5 million US dollars, is now on sale for only 3 million. Limited to five units, one has already been sold. Slots are limited, first come, first served..."
Afterward.
Someone in the audience started the trend with a very meme-like comment.
Immediately after.
The entire livestream chat was occupied by countless repeating messages.
"This is a toy mech? This is a large-scale figure? This is an eight-year-old child???"
"This is a toy mech? This is a large-scale figure? This is an eight-year-old child???"
"..."
Countless comments.
Dense and crowded.
Like mud plastered on a wall.
Qin Muyan was stunned by this screen-filling barrage of comments that almost caused trypophobia.
This?
What's going on?
Is there something wrong with my introduction?
Why is it so difficult to be a top streamer with millions of fans?
Did I say something wrong again that caused the audience to reject me?
The repeating comments in the livestream were contagious and could mutate.
Seeing Qin Muyan stunned, Meng Hao no longer intervened in the livestream.
The comments, spreading like a virus, began to "mutate"!
"Female streamer, you shut up... Brother Hao, you explain, you call this a toy mech, a large-scale figure?"
"Female streamer, you have large breasts, don't talk... Boss of Huayong Industries, think carefully before you speak. You call a military robot that can withstand the sinking of two 10,000-ton destroyers a toy mech, a large-scale figure?"
"Female streamer, you're pretty, but you'll still be scolded. When men talk about mechs, you don't interfere... Are you Brother Hao? Come on, come up with excuses and lies, how do you think we have a screw loose and are mentally abnormal to boldly claim that this mech, praised by a general of the Bear Country as the 'strongest ground mech,' is a toy mech, a large-scale figure?"
"Female streamer, mechs are the romance of men. It's not that Brother doesn't like your looks, it's just about a man's faith. You step aside for now..."
"..."
From these comments, which were dense enough to plaster a wall, Meng Hao finally saw some clues.
What the heck?
What's going on?
What happened?
How did my "toy mech" withstand the sinking of two 10,000-ton destroyers?
How did my "large-scale figure" become the "strongest ground mech" in the words of a high-ranking military officer from the Bear Country???
My Huayong Industries is a legitimate, honest, law-abiding "toy research, development, manufacturing, production, and sales enterprise" registered with the industrial and commercial department, so how did it get involved with the official channels of the Bear Country?
