“Five minutes left!”
At this moment, a few large words appeared on the top of the live broadcast room again.
The countdown had officially begun!
“Who told you to call us losers? Are you dumbfounded now?”
“That’s right, such a low-quality streamer deserves to be ignored!”
“Let’s see if you still dare to scold the audience. Goddess Mina is much stronger than you!”
The viewers in the live broadcast room felt that Mina would definitely win today, so they began to send comments to mock Queenie.
When Queenie saw these comments, she still had a look of disdain on her face. She pursed her lips and said, “Do you really think that Mina can defeat me? You think she can beat me with just you losers? Don’t joke with me here. You’d better hurry back to work and start earning your salary!”
Since the matter had already reached this point, Queenie’s tone became even harsher.
“You’re about to lose, yet you’re still so arrogant!”
“Yeah, what are you pretending for? Someone’s going to cry later!”
When the netizens heard Queenie’s words, they immediately got riled up and began to curse.
However, after a few curses, they suddenly realized that Mina’s reward progress bar had disappeared!
In less than two seconds, Mina’s reward progress bar was crushed by Queenie’s!
“What’s going on?”
“Is there a problem with the system?”
“Why did Mina’s progress bar become shorter?”
When the viewers in the live broadcast room saw the progress bar representing Mina disappear, they were all dumbfounded and had a puzzled expression on their faces.
They all started to send comments in the live broadcast room, and Mina herself was puzzled.
“This should be a problem with the system, right?”
“There must be a problem with the system. No one has given Queenie bits. How could her popularity suddenly increase so much?”
“Queenie is really despicable. She didn’t receive bits and actually used such a method to win the competition. She’s simply shameless!”
The netizens began to curse at her.
After all, the words Queenie had said to them before were really too unpleasant. Now, no one wanted Queenie to win today’s match.
Mina looked at her computer screen with a confused expression because she couldn’t understand what was going on.
Although the netizens were saying that there was a problem with the system, Mina felt that such a big platform like Twitch wouldn’t make such a mistake!
“What’s going on?”
Connor turned his head and asked Yelena.
“What else can it be? It must be the rich people that Queenie called over who have started giving her bits!”
Yelena replied casually.
“Someone gave Queenie bits?”
When Connor heard this, he couldn’t help but be stunned. Then, he turned to look at the computer screen.
“Call Me Big Brother Ocean gave [Queenie] 500,000 bits!”
“Beverly Hill’s Number One Young Master gave [Queenie] 100,000 bits!”
“I’m Not a Rich Second-Generation Heir gave [Queenie] 50,000 bits!”
Because of the delay on the internet, the gift notifications popped up belatedly one by one.
When the netizens in the live broadcast room saw these comments, they were all dumbfounded.
One had to know that 5 bits were worth 1 dollar!
Call Me Big Brother Ocean from Queenie’s live stream just now had tipped 500,000 bits in one go. That was equivalent to 100,000 dollars!
That was why Queenie’s reward progress bar had directly crushed Mina’s progress bar!
Moreover, Call Me Big Brother Ocean did not seem to have any intention of stopping at all. He continued to send bits to Queenie.
“Call Me Big Brother Ocean gave [Queenie] 50,000 bits!”
“Call Me Big Brother Ocean gave [Queenie] 100,000 bits!”
Similar comments kept appearing in Queenie’s live broadcast room.
The viewers in Mina’s live stream were all dumbfounded.
After all, the other party had offered 100,000 dollars in one go. Each of them would only have a few hundred dollars at most. They were no match for the other party’s nouveau riche.
“Even if I have to eat dirt this month, I will help Goddess Mina win!”
“That’s right, brothers, hurry up and buy bits. F*ck Queenie to death!”
“Everyone, hurry up and top up. We have more people, so we can definitely help Goddess Mina win the competition!”
The viewers in Mina’s livestream seemed to be a little unconvinced and began to send some small bits, but the effect was still not very obvious.
“Everyone, stop sending me bits. It’s not easy for you to earn money. I’ll just admit defeat in today’s competition!”
Actually, Mina didn’t really want to win. After all, this was just a way for the live streaming platform to make money.
Therefore, when she saw the other party’s tycoon starting to show his strength, she began to appeal to those netizens to stop sending gifts.
Two minutes passed.
Queenie’s rewards had already exceeded 500,000, and Mina’s rewards had reached 100,000 with the support of the netizens.
“I didn’t expect Mina to receive bits of 100,000 dollars today. She’s really amazing…”
Yelena looked at the computer screen and sighed softly.
“You seemed to have known from the start that Mina was going to lose. How did you know?”
Connor hesitated for a moment, then turned to Yelena and asked.
“Queenie is considered a second-tier streamer in Twitch. Although she doesn’t have many fans, all the streamers on this platform know her. Because her boyfriend is a rich second-generation heir, that’s the guy called Brother Ocean. So, at the last moment, her boyfriend would definitely appear and help her win the competition!” Yelena said slowly.
“Haha…”
Connor couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this. Then, he said indifferently, “Since that person is her boyfriend, why doesn’t he just give her the money? Why did he come to the platform to buy bits? In the end, wouldn’t the platform take a commission?”
“What do you know?”
Yelena rolled her eyes at Connor and continued to explain, “If Queenie can enter the top three in this PK competition, then all the gifts she has received during this period of time will be returned 100%. Moreover, she will also receive a reward of one million dollars. In other words, as long as you have enough money, you can give as much as you want. As long as you enter the top three, not only will you not lose money, but you will also earn money!”
“F*ck, what a trick!”
Connor seemed to be speechless.
“That’s right. There are many tricks in our live streaming industry!”
Yelena replied indifferently.
“So, if they return 100% of the money for the bits, how will the platform make money?” Connor was stunned for a moment before asking.
“Are you stupid?”
Yelena rolled her eyes at Connor, then pouted and said, “Only the top three streamers can get 100% of the bits. Most of the remaining streamers’ bits will be taken by the platform as commission. Moreover, some of the streamers’ bits will be confiscated by the platform, so the platform will rely on these streamers to earn money!”
“I see!”
Connor nodded lightly and didn’t say anything.
If Yelena hadn’t explained these things to him today, Connor really wouldn’t have known that there were so many tricks in the live broadcast industry.
Just as Connor was talking to Yelena, there were less than three minutes left in the match between Mina and Queenie.
Mina felt that even if she lost today, it was not a big deal. Wasn’t it just losing a month’s worth of bits?
Last time, Connor had given her several million dollars in her live broadcast room. She did not lack money at all now, so she began to persuade the viewers in the live broadcast room not to send bits anymore.
“Mina, it seems like you’re going to lose. Why don’t you ask that tycoon of yours to come and give bits?”
Queenie asked Mina with a smug expression when she saw that she was about to win.
Mina was stunned when she heard Queenie’s words.
“Haha, you guys might not know this. Mina sent the rich man from her live streaming room to the police station…”
“This woman is really too vicious. She took money from CeeM and not only did she not sleep with him, but she also called the police and said that he wanted to rape her. I’ve never seen a streamer like her!”
“Yeah, she usually looks cold and aloof, but she’s actually a b*tch. Don’t you find it disgusting looking at such a person?”
The rich tycoons who had sent Queenie bits went to Mina’s live broadcast room and started to send comments to mock Mina.
“Who do you think you are now that CeeM is gone? You actually want to beat my wife? How shameless! 1’11 give everyone a locked gift!”
After Brother Ocean sent the comment, he sent a locked gift worth 8,888 dollars.
A locked gift required a password, and the password for the gift was ‘B*tch Mina’!
Any netizen who sent these two words could share the gift money.
In an instant, Mina’s live broadcast room was covered by the words ‘B*itch Mina’..
