The live streams from the boyfriend’s perspective by Lu Jingqian caused a wave of enthusiasm on the internet, inspiring many other streamers to imitate and conduct their own live streams from the boyfriend’s perspective with various themes.
Lu Jingqian has also been arranged by his company to conduct several live streams from the boyfriend’s perspective on major online platforms, accumulating a lot of popularity. His fan base has grown rapidly, and he can be said to be the first example to become popular immediately after his debut.
Although other streamers have also conducted live streams from the boyfriend’s perspective, the number of supporters and clicks cannot compare with Lu Jingqian’s, because other streamers are still unfamiliar with this type of live streaming, and do not create as strong a sense of immersion as Lu Jingqian does.
Even the highest level of popularity will cool down one day, so after accumulating a certain level of popularity, Lu Jingqian stopped doing live streams from the boyfriend’s perspective. Otherwise, the decline in interest from internet users will lower the average click-through rate of all his live streams, which is directly related to his ranking among streamers.
The time for the once-in-three-year Princess Selection is getting closer and closer. Whether hopeful or hopeless, all the streamers are preparing to make a final effort, what if a miracle happens? Especially after Lu Jingqian became popular soon after his debut, more streamers believe that it was not impossible to become an overnight sensation.
Before the final selection, besides getting more clicks and support during live streaming, the most important thing is to strive to get more endorsements from top brands. The level and quantity of endorsed brands occupy a significant proportion of the evaluation content.
As the company’s ace in the making, Lu Jingqian’s senior management decided to allocate some top-notch endorsement resources to him after discussing it. During the meeting, all the models were informed of the approximate allocation of resources. However, these were tentative ideas of the company and the corresponding arrangements from the company for the models they want to recommend. In general, vendors and companies will accept recommendations from talent agencies, but it is not necessarily guarantee that all of them will be successful, as some companies may have their own preferences for certain streamers. Therefore, the outcome was still uncertain.
However, this still caused dissatisfaction from Rui Yusheng. He believed the resources allocated to Lu Jingqian should have been his because those vendors were more likely to choose him for endorsement.
“This is just our current recommendation plan, and the final decision will still be made by the other party’s company. So if you think they are more likely to choose you, there is nothing to worry about. What is meant to be yours will not be taken away by anyone,” said the manager of the business department.
“If the other party’s company originally wanted to choose me, but gave up on me due to your strong recommendation of others, isn’t this unfair to me?” Rui Yusheng said unhappily. “Based on my current ranking and popularity, I am the streamer most likely to be selected for the Princess Selection honor title, but the company is not helping me to win this honor, and even wants to take away my resources. Have you ever thought this kind of practice is likely to allow other companies’ models to benefit from it and Allure Model’s reputation will decline as well?”
“These are not your resources yet, if the other company has already confirmed your endorsement, and we forcefully take away your resources and replace you with another, that is indeed unkind of us.” The manager of the business department said, “But it’s not completely confirmed yet, so we’re just talking about the distribution of the recommended resources so you can be prepared for the audition.”
“If that’s the case,” Rui Yusheng said, “There will be the models’ thanksgiving season soon. At that time, it will be clear which companies are more interested in choosing whom. Why don’t we wait until then to decide on the allocation of resources based on the companies’ intentions?”
The business department manager looked at the general manager, waiting for his decision.
The general manager and the vice president next to him were whispering and discussing.
Although their discussion was related to Lu Jingqian, he remained silent throughout the entire meeting process like the other models. He believed it was not necessary to argue about these things, and the final outcome would depend on individual abilities.
“I have always followed the company’s arrangements before, but in such a crucial time, if the company wants to make me step back, then I can only appeal to the Group,” Rui Yusheng hinted and threatened in his words. No matter what it takes, he must obtain the honor of Princess for himself. Otherwise, he would have to wait for another three years, and who knows what the situation would be like then.
“Let’s rearrange things after the thanksgiving season ends. It is still too early to say anything now,” the general manager implied that he was leaning towards Rui Yusheng’s side. Because he had always thought Rui Yusheng had a relationship with Frederick. He felt that if Rui Yusheng went to Frederick to complain, it would affect his position as general manager. However, the result was still as Rui Yusheng wished. He didn’t think it was necessary to let a newcomer affect him.
Rui Yusheng was still satisfied with the general manager’s decision because he was confident in the results of the thanksgiving season. He had worked so hard to win over and please the bosses of various companies over the years, and it wouldn’t be in vain. In order to ensure that he could overpower all other models at the thanksgiving season, Rui Yusheng decided to seize the time and contact the high-level executives and bosses of those companies to further build relationships.
The upcoming thanksgiving season for models is a live event held by models to thank their fans. The top thirty models ranked by registered fan count can participate. The so-called registered fans are real-name registered fans who have to pay membership fees every month. Due to the recent surge in his number of fans, Lu Jingqian has even made it into the top ten and is considered a must-attendee for the thanksgiving season event.
The thanksgiving event was sponsored by many large companies as a way for them to promote their own companies, so the event was grand. Each participating model not only has to interact with fans up close to thank them, but also has to perform their talents.
The most nerve-wracking stage for the models is the close interaction with fans, as live broadcasts on the internet are often beautified to some extent, and even their voice has to be altered. But it was hard to not be seen as boys when you were seen from close. Especially, when you arrive at the scene, you must talk and cannot pretend to be mute. If you use a fake voice, it will make the audience feel uncomfortable. But once you use your own voice, no matter how pretty you dress up, it will make people feel quite uncomfortable, and it will be difficult for fans to be attracted in the future.
Therefore, some netizens jokingly called the thanksgiving season of show models the season of the mirror that reveals demons, whether you’re human, demon, or immortal, your true form will be revealed on this day.
In the largest outdoor performance venue in the Imperial City, fans have already entered and were waiting. The car carrying the show models also enters the venue and drives directly onto the stage for the performance, then one by one, they open the doors and get out.
The first to get out, of course, is Rui Yusheng, who has the largest number of fans. He was wearing a wine-red high-slit dress. As soon as he gets out of the car, he causes a lot of screams.
Upon hearing these screams, Rui Yusheng’s heart felt very satisfied and proud. His recent mood, which has been affected by Lu Jingqian’s popularity, has finally improved. Especially, since several models who got off the bus after him did not receive the screams as loud as his, he was even more proud of himself.
But when Lu Jingqian got out of the car, the screams suddenly increased, not any less than Rui Yusheng’s screams, which immediately made Rui Yusheng’s heart sink.
Although Lu Jingqian’s registered fan count was not as high as the previous few, it’s because he debuted too recently. Therefore, the screams he received were no less than Rui Yusheng’s, because he has the most passerby fans among all the models.
All the models greet their fans one by one, and the screams have already reached the sky. Next was the section where the models thanks the fans, which was the time to get up close and personal with the fans.
The models have to walk to the extended platform and throw the prepared gifts to the fans below. The throwing action also needs to be careful because the width of the platform was less than two meters. Even if the models stand in the middle, the fans below were less than one meter away, so if the movement was too big, it will look ungraceful.
Lu Jingqian was dressed in a dreamy two-dimensional style today, wearing a light purple short skirt that even has a gradient color, making him look quite heavenly. Because he wore inner short pants underneath, Lu Jingqian was not afraid of something that cannot be seen to be seen. Hence, his movement toward the booth was elegant and generous. The area where he passed by was the place with the biggest scream.
After throwing a bunch of gifts, Rui Yusheng walked toward Lu Jingqian. Since Lu Jingqian was currently the most popular model, Rui Yusheng wanted to go over and show some intimacy with him, making fans think they have a good relationship. This was known as riding the coattails of someone else’s popularity.
Lu Jingqian just smiled when he saw Rui Yusheng approaching. Even if he understood Rui Yusheng’s intentions, he couldn’t show any dissatisfaction at this moment. Otherwise, Rui Yusheng would have the opportunity to spread rumors online about him with his narrow-minded and bad personality.
Rui Yusheng thought he was very sexy today, but he didn’t realize that without comparison there is no harm. When he stood next to Lu Jingqian, he looked vulgar compared to the ethereal aura emanating from Lu Jingqian. His physique also looked a bit sturdy in comparison to Lu Jingqian.
Most of these fans are crazy fans who have watched countless fashion shows. The obvious comparison immediately created a sense of hierarchy in their minds. As a result, Rui Yusheng saw many fans looking at him with disdainful eyes, and almost all of them were calling Wen Nan’s name.
Rui Yusheng was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, but he still maintained a smile and walked quickly to the other side. However, his skirt was split from the thigh, and when he took a few steps, the back of the skirt was lifted by the wind, revealing his flat buttocks, which were seen by the fans below, and some even took photos of it.
After today’s event, Rui Yusheng will once again see the heat of him being discussed by netizens, but this time he definitely won’t be happy because it will be a discussion of his most intolerable physical flaw.
After the gift-giving session, the models return to the backstage lounge for a break, and then went on stage to perform one by one.
