Chapter 731 - 501: Livestream Begins (4K)_2

So quite a few people simply began live streaming the scene directly through text or video.

The posts below this topic are everyone’s live streams.

Chen Yong casually looked through, and it was just like the offline situation.

At first, seeing so many people going, those wearing support gear were so noticeable, everyone online thought Wu Gou might really be finished this time.

Those Wu Mu anti-fans who didn’t go were even celebrating with champagne in the comments section.

But they didn’t celebrate for long before things changed.

The new situation on-site was posted online.

Now, when sorted by the latest time, it’s full of mocking voices from passersby.

"Oh my god, brothers, something’s off, they’re all Wu Gou’s fans! We’ve been fooled, Wu Gou actually has tons of fans! Look at the pictures, besides the fan circle fans, the rest are all Wu Gou fans! (picture) (picture)"

"LOL, brothers, I thought Wu Gou’s fans were hiding online, but it turns out they’re hiding offline too, each one looking like passersby, but actually they’re all Wu Gou fans, check out the on-site situation. (video)"

"Wu Gou has so many foreign fans, they’re all Han Mei and Sakura fans, and I heard Wu Gou has Europe and America fans too who will be coming, apart from a few specific mega-stars domestically, Wu Gou has the most foreign fans, right? (video)"

"Wu Gou anti-fans are done for again! So many fans are here yet they hope Wu Gou will flop, how can he flop like this!"

"Wu Gou anti-fans’ plans went down the drain, they wanted to show how many people oppose Wu Gou, but now everyone just sees how many people like Wu Gou, if I were a brand, I’d definitely sign Wu Gou for endorsements."

"I said Wu Gou anti-fans are just hopeless, every time expecting them to last a bit longer, but they never withstand it."

"Wu Gou’s foreign fans are too terrifying, at this rate Wu Gou won’t even need the domestic market, he can directly develop abroad."

Chen Yong looked at the topic’s heat, refreshing to see hundreds of new posts, nodding in satisfaction.

He finally understood why Wu Mu had such an abrasive personality and quoted such high prices, yet all the domestic programs and projects were still scrambling to invite Wu Mu.

It’s that he’s too valuable, his professional prowess is overwhelming, once you invite him, there’s heat, and once you invite him, there’s buzz.

Today, even for their X Night, regardless of viewer numbers later, just the buzz is already profitable.

However, the specifics still depend on the start of the show, how much heat the live stream actually generates.

They need to attract viewers to watch their celebratory live broadcast to truly convert influence.

Chen Yong checked the time, "The live stream time is about right, prepare to go live, try to attract online heat."

Though X Night is named "Night," it actually starts live streaming in the afternoon.

From the red carpet to various celebrity interactions, until the actual party starts, there’s stuff planned all afternoon.

...

Beijing time, one PM sharp, the X platform live stream began promptly.

"Dear viewers, good afternoon, welcome to the 2024 X Night live stream, I’m your host Weiwei."

"I’m your host Hai."

A male and female host appeared on the screen.

Waiting viewers instantly flooded into the live rooms across major platforms.

"Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu."

"Qiu Yiyang, Qiu Yiyang!"

Various celebrity names instantly flooded the live chat.

Of course, compared to a certain name, these names seemed less significant.

"Wu Gou, Wu Gou, Wu Gou!"

"Finally live, let’s watch Wu Gou defeat the anti-fans!"

"Wu Gou, hurry up with the show!"

"I want to see Wu Gou perform!"

In previous years, right when the broadcast started, it was mostly support group fans waiting.

But this year, with such online buzz, it’s sure that more people are interested in Wu Mu.

"Sixteen million!"

Backstage, Fan Wen saw the total number of online users across platforms, his face instantly turned excited red.

Exploded, truly exploded!

Not just online, but the number of live viewers also exploded!

In previous years, having a few million at the start was considered plenty.

This year, it started with over ten million!

Chen Yong was also delighted but understood better that many in the live room were here for someone specific.

He reminded, "Let the front-stage hosts find a chance to conclude their intros, switch to the back stage there to show everyone Wu Mu’s entrance."

Though it’s not yet the red carpet time, many celebrities were already prepared in the nearby backstage area.

Among them, important guests were accompanied by a filming crew.

And around Wu Mu, naturally, there was such a filming crew.

"Got it."

Fan Wen reminded the on-site director through the earpiece.

Soon, the front stage hosts introducing today’s events, guiding everyone to see the offline audience, found an opportunity and switched.

"As you can see, there are so many spectators both online and offline, surely everyone can’t wait to see today’s guests, now let’s see what the guests are doing..."

The live broadcast screen suddenly darkened, the camera switched to the backstage lounge area.

The backstage lounge was relatively dim, the sudden switch made it a bit hard to see the scene for a moment, but it only darkened for a bit before everyone’s eyes were dazzled.

"Ah, am I up already?"

Yes, Wu Mu’s face appeared on the screen.

He curiously looked at the camera.

"Yes, Teacher Wu Mu, say hello to everyone." Not only is there a filming crew, but Wu Mu also has an extra sub-host guiding him.

Wu Mu didn’t object, smiling and waving at the camera, "Hello everyone, long time no see."

The live room viewers were further dazzled.

The live chat was packed densely.

"Whoa, haven’t watched Wu Gou’s show in a while, Wu Gou’s gotten even more handsome!"

"Ah, it’s a flashbang, the program team used a flashbang!"

"Suit Wu Gou! Rare sight of Wu Gou in a suit!"

Yes, Wu Mu was wearing a suit now, today’s celebration also included a charity section, so dressing too casually wasn’t appropriate, hence he didn’t wear standout regular clothes.

A smart, black suit, unbuttoned, paired with an inner black shirt with the top two buttons undone, appearing formal yet not overly solemn.

His hair was styled up, creating a design that showed off his whole face without any angles missed.

And this rare formal outfit, combined with Wu Mu’s current looks, naturally made him charming enough to dazzle everyone’s eyes, he seemed even more handsome.

One could say that seeing his face appear, even the anti-fans initially ready to curse might have softened their hearts.

The sub-stage host also interacted, "Wow, Teacher Wu Mu is dressed so handsomely today, the lounge is all lit up."

The host’s interaction hadn’t been answered, but suddenly a head popped out from beside the camera, enthusiastically saying, "Yes, Wu is so handsome!"

Hmm?

The audience unable to see the lounge’s situation was stumped by the suddenly popped-out head, then speechless, how did you end up here?

The sub-stage host internally sighed, but her expression remained unchanged, smiling while guiding the topic, "Yao, why are you in Teacher Wu Mu’s lounge?"

The popped-out head was Lu Yao, she looked at Wu Mu with starry eyes, "I’m here to check if Wu has arrived."

Though the popping head was unexpected, the pre-celebration broadcast was intended to be informal, having spontaneous exchanges, so no one minded.

Wu Mu also nodded with a smile, "I’m here, long time no see, Yao."

Wu Mu greeted casually, but unexpectedly, the previously starry-eyed Lu Yao suddenly became serious, trying hard to keep a stern face, "Wu, you’re wrong, it hasn’t been long since we last met, we just had dinner together the day before yesterday."

As she spoke, her eyes deliberately and casually swept across the camera, her head slightly raised smugly, displaying a classic oblivious expression.

But the sub-stage host couldn’t contain her brightness at this point.

The day before yesterday they had dinner together?

Hmm?

Something’s up!?
