Chapter 1407

Chapter 1407Larry had no criminal record and no undesirable habits. He was diligent, and lived a life that met the
standards of a good person for over thirty years.
He even went so far as to find people to take in the stray cats he found on the roadside, and took full
responsibility for them.
He met his previous girlfriend because of a cat. She was a beautiful girl working as a live streamer in
an anime-related company.
Nowadays, no matter how good one’s education was, it couldn’t match the earnings of an overnight
sensation live streamer.
However, behind these money-making streamers, there were countless aspiring small streamers who
couldn’t catch a break.
They were attractive and slim, and sat in front of the camera daily. They used all their tricks, yet their
income and fan base couldn’t compare to big internet celebrities and top streamers.
What was more infuriating was that many internet celebrities and streamers hadn’t done anything
special.
They seemingly effortlessly posted videos some with bewildering content like [My husband treats me
like this] or [Watch me perform a stunt called ‘Hand in Hot Oil’]. Then, they actually put their hand into
hot oil unharmed, revealing later that they didn’t even turn on the heat.
But with videos like these, they could gather an immense number of fans overnight, creating a myth of
getting rich quickly. They would then receive numerous advertising opportunities, seamlessly
transitioning into live selling and endorsing products.Larry’s ex-girlfriend, Lulu, struggled in this environment. For many years, she failed to gain popularity
despite her efforts.
Yet, she couldn’t switch to another industry after all these years. If she was willing to endure hardship,
she could easily get a job as a luxury salesperson at SK Mall with her face. She could be earning forty
to fifty thousand dollars a year.
However, Lulu couldn’t bear the hardship.
She would complain about standing all day, which made her legs look bad, and feared developing
varicose veins in the long run.
Moreover, she had to greet customers with a smile. What terrified her more was that every person who
came to shop wasn’t a poor person.
She said, “Watching so many people spend hundreds of thousands every day like how we average
people spend a few hundred or thousand dollars every day… I can’t stand it! My mental state will be
crushed!”
In the end, she wanted to stay in the livestreaming industry. After all, being a live streamer, though
hard, meant streaming for only two to three hours a day.
If they streamed for too long, their condition would suffer. Poor condition meant looking bad on camera,
and if they didn’t look good, sponsors would decrease.
In short, Lulu had gotten used to this job of short durations with high returns. Even if she couldn’t
compare to those top streamers, in reality, her earning power was stronger than office workers who
worked hard all day just to earn a few hundred bucks.
However, she was getting older.Newcomers kept emerging in the industry, putting pressure on Lulu’s position. Even the recent
livestreaming tasks assigned to her were designed to showcase new faces on her existing fan base.
Wasn’t she essentially giving away the fans she had worked so hard to maintain?
Lulu refused to comply.
novelbin“Not doing it? Then you don’t need to stream for the company!”
Well, there weren’t many streamers in the company anyway. In reality, most of them did it on their own
and broadcasted from home.
But Lulu was different; her streaming account belonged to the company.
When she was younger and the livestreaming industry was booming, someone approached her just as
she entered the scene.
They said they saw potential in her. Their company intended to sign her, and would pull their entire
resources to turn her into a super popular streamer.
