CSGO Unboxing Streamer: A Charity-Driven Tycoon

Chapter 140 is still lying around sleeping.
The next morning.

Lu Yiming was awakened by the ringing of the phone.

"Holy crap! Bro! Still sleeping? Hurry up and check the National Network!"

PDD's roaring made Lu Yiming half-drowsy.

last night.

He then added all his points to his physical fitness.

The system's evaluation has finally changed from weak to normal.

This made him want to try out what the concept of "normal" really meant.

He felt completely at ease after fifteen minutes.

Lu Yiming was very satisfied with the results of the upgrade.

Upon hearing PDD mention Guomin.com, he rubbed his eyes with one hand and whispered, "What happened? Did those guys from the outdoor group get caught?"

Previously, when Lu Yiming announced in his live stream that he would be doing outdoor broadcasts, PDD had reminded Lu Yiming not to interact with the outdoor group.

It is clear.

PDD knows something.

Lu Yiming also indicated that he roughly knew.

The two then started chatting about the people doing outdoor live streaming.

PDD stated that these people will remain dormant until at least after the Shark platform goes public.

Lu Yiming said that he estimated several people would need to be banned.

at this time.

Lu Yiming thought someone had already been formally sentenced.

But then PDD said, "Yes! But it's not just them! The message mentioned you!"

These words completely dispelled the remaining half of Lu Yiming's drowsiness.

Upon hearing the sound, he suddenly sat up in bed.

These days, most of the bad things that happen when anchors go on the People's Daily website are bad news.

At this moment, Lu Yiming recalled everything he had done over the past year.

But it's a pity.

He didn't realize he had done anything outrageous in those slides.
Was there something wrong with yesterday's live stream content?
Was she criticized for flaunting her wealth?

Pick up your phone and open a webpage to search for "Guomin.com".

soon.

A rather eye-catching message caught Lu Yiming's attention.

"Survival in Eradicating the Chaos of Outdoor Live Streaming"

The content was a scathing critique of current outdoor live streaming practices, even naming five top outdoor streamers, three of whom were from the Shark platform.

This made Lu Yiming's heart pound with fear.

However, I was also puzzled as to why I hadn't seen myself even though I had almost finished reading all the content.

very bitter.

My gaze swept to the end of the article.

It's finally time to bring him up.

Only through self-discipline among livestreamers, strict platform oversight, rigorous management by relevant departments, and severe legal penalties can the breeding ground for chaos in livestreaming be continuously eradicated, thus creating a clean and healthy online livestreaming ecosystem.

But there's one streamer who's different; last night...

What lies before me is a scathing critique.

From there, the conversation shifted to the charity campaign that Lu Yiming had sparked on Weibo the previous night.

Although Lu Yiming's name was not mentioned.

But just by looking at the content, you can basically tell it's about him.

It is clear.

This sentence wasn't originally in the draft; it was added to give the industry a positive image.

and many more!

Am I now a positive figure?
Lu Yiming's lips curled up.

This was a pleasant surprise.

"Bro! You have to treat us to dinner this time! You're the benchmark in the livestreaming industry now! An officially recognized charity streamer! That's some serious prestige!"

PDD's tone was sarcastic.

However, I also admire Lu Yiming's madness last night.

You should know that when he donated a school, it only made it into a local tabloid, but Lu Yiming's donation was featured in official media.

Although it's just online media.

But the weight of the first two words is extraordinary.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth even further.

He chuckled and said, "That's easy! That's easy!"

Subsequently.

After hanging up with PDD, calls came in one after another from Bao Ge and others.

They all expressed their congratulations while also expressing envy.

Until 10 a.m.

My agent, Liuli, called.

"Congratulations! You've been praised by official media! You can now broadcast normally!"

The reason for terminating Lu Yiming's outdoor live stream was to tell him not to do any live streams for the next few days.

The main purpose is to protect him from being affected by the rhythm during this period.

However, the outdoor controversy reached its final conclusion when this article appeared this morning.

The fact that each person on the list is sealed off signifies the end of this matter.

In addition, he was praised by state media.

The broadcast will not be affected in any way.

Hearing this, Lu Yiming smiled and said, "Let's continue resting! It's been a long time since we've had a rest!"

Liuli came not only to offer congratulations.

Today is the weekend.

Shark Platform will go public next Thursday.

Lu Yiming and the others were notified that they needed to get their passports ready by tomorrow, as the chartered plane would take off from the capital the day after tomorrow afternoon.

They contacted Lu Yiming to expedite the procedures.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming indicated that there was no problem.

That day, Lu Yiming's fans started celebrating in the group chat.

Although no one was named, they knew they were talking about Lu Yiming.

Looking at the group chat, they exclaimed that the power of 8,300 was terrifying.

Lu Yiming shook his head with a smile and sighed, "So many troubles have come right after the Heavenly Favor ended. I really miss the days when the Heavenly Favor was around!"

It can be said that during that month when I had the highest level of Heavenly Favor.

He never encounters any trouble.

As for the topics that the fans are currently discussing in the group.

He also felt that what the netizens said made sense.

The donation of over 80 million yuan earned him a golden statue.

However, even having a get-out-of-jail-free card doesn't mean he can act recklessly.

Lu Yiming did not relax his principles because of the praise he received.

Fu Xiaoli has no desire to go abroad.

The studio expressed concern and said they didn't want to go.

Lu Yiming didn't insist.

After all, this trip was merely to watch the bell ringing.

The materials were submitted to his agent, Liuli, over the weekend, and Lu Yiming went to the airport and arrived in the capital the following Monday after receiving his passport.

The hotel was arranged by the platform.

It was also not long after Lu Yiming checked into the hotel.

PDD called.

"You've arrived at the hotel? Come on down! Bao Ge and I are waiting for you in the hotel lobby!"

The two arrived at noon.

I invited Lu Yiming to have dinner together tonight.

They then met in the lobby.

We can see two other people besides PDD (Bao Ge).

At this moment, PDD stepped forward and introduced Lu Yiming: "This is YYF, the DOTA world champion! This is Nvliu66! The number one female console gamer!"

After saying this to Lu Yiming.

PDD looked at the two of them and smiled, "As for President Lu, I don't need to introduce him to you, do I?"

Lu Yiming has been riding high these past few days.

After all, he was praised by official media, and in order to reduce negative news about the outdoor section, the platform has been promoting Lu Yiming like crazy in the past few days.

How to say~
If it weren't already arranged that Brother Bao would ring the bell.

They all want to replace Bao Ge.

The next morning.

The group set off at noon.

Thirteen hours later.

They arrived in Gotham City at noon that day to ring the bell for the Shark Platform's IPO.

The experience of catching up with time is quite amazing.

The five rooms for guests are on the same floor.

In the elevator, PDD suddenly suggested, "How about we go to a shopping mall this afternoon to experience the price level here?"

The bell-ringing ceremony will take place the day after tomorrow.

Upon hearing this, everyone except Lu Yiming's eyes lit up.

Upon landing, all of them exchanged a large amount of currency.

Lu Yiming was the only one who exchanged a small amount of currency to deal with the tipping culture here.

The benefits of reading a lot are now being experienced.

Although it was Lu Yiming's first time going abroad.

But compared to the others, they were much more at ease.

However, their travel plans were aborted before they even began.

"Going shopping? No way! No way! Gotham is in complete chaos! You'll have to stay in the hotel for the next couple of days!"

The speaker was the person in charge of the Shark platform.

Perhaps knowing that the others were not easy to deal with, they arranged for a young girl to be sent instead.

At this moment, she shook her head vigorously.

PDD said helplessly, "We're just going to the mall! We're not wandering around! There shouldn't be any danger, right?"

The words fell.

The girl took out her phone and handed it to PDD.

It's a video.

It's all about robberies, shootings, demonstrations, and the like.

At this moment, Nvliu66 said, "Is it really that chaotic? But these should all be isolated cases, right?"

An isolated case?

Upon hearing this, the female assistant exclaimed with an exaggerated expression, "This is just this week's highlights! You can go on Twitter, locate Gotham, and focus on crime-related topics!"

The platform is also doing this for the benefit of these individuals.

This also relates to the listing ceremony the day after tomorrow.

They didn't want any problems to arise among them at this crucial time.

If this assistant were a male, PDD would absolutely ignore him.

But the platform assigned a cute girl to them.

This is PDD's Achilles' heel.

Looking helplessly at the group, he shrugged and said, "Looks like we'll be in jail for a few days!"

Saying he'd go to jail was obviously a joke.

The hotel where we stayed had quite a few recreational facilities.

Basic amenities such as movies, massage, spas, upscale restaurants, and gyms are standard hotel facilities.

Some even provided computers and mahjong machines for several people in the room.

It won't be boring if it's only for two days.

Six p.m.

There was a knock on Lu Yiming's door.

The four men, who were acting suspiciously, were about to speak.

At this time.

PDD put his left index finger to his lips and said, "Shh~ Don't make a sound! Let's sneak out for a walk!"

As the saying goes, since we're already here...

How could I not go out for a stroll?

The elevator is falling vertically.

All four of them had a hint of excitement on their faces.

Lu Yiming then asked softly, "Does anyone here speak English?"

Hear this.

PDD laughed and said, "Brother! We have someone here with a Tsinghua University degree! And he was the top science student!"

Lu Yiming was taken aback upon hearing the sound.

He really didn't know that.

My gaze swept past PDD to Bao Ge, and then quickly landed on the two new friends I had just met.

YYF's gaze swept over Lu Yiming.

She quickly waved her hand and said, "It wasn't me! Nvliu66 is the academic genius!"

He noticed that all four of them were looking at him.

Nvliu66 also laughed generously and said, "Then I'll act as your translator today!"

Because I've never played console games since I was a child.

Lu Yiming had never paid attention to game streamers in the console gaming section.

They were quite surprised at this point.

Forget about Tsinghua.

He was also the top science student.

In addition, there are console game streamers.

These three keywords are combined together.

Lu Yiming's surprise was not surprising.

Fifth Avenue.

Also known as Super Expensive Street.

Located at the intersection of Queens, Manhattan and Brooklyn, the road is 1.2 kilometers long and has many shopping malls, restaurants and nightclubs along its length.

This is the destination for the five of them.

There's a lot of foot traffic.

The group followed the flow of people into the first store.

It's the Patek Philippe flagship store.

Unlike the flagship stores in China, which only have regular versions in stock, this store has a number of collectible items in stock.

However, the prices are all outrageous.

Brother Bao grinned as he looked at the price tag.

He whispered to Lu Yiming, "Holy crap! Is it that expensive? This watch costs over 100,000 dollars?"

PDD overheard this.

Hearing this, he laughed and said, "You shouldn't say that to President Lu! That piece of gold in President Lu's hand is worth at least 300,000 dollars!"

Lu Yiming had registered his watch when he left customs.

Only PDD noticed it.

Upon hearing this, Bao Ge looked at Lu Yiming's wrist with considerable surprise.

"Roger Dubuis Knights of the Round Table 2019! Mr. Lu is so lucky! Only 28 of these pieces were ever made worldwide!"

The speaker is Nvliu66.

It has to be said that he has a high level of education.

He exudes personal charm in every gesture.

On the way there, the five of them traveled in two cars. Lu Yiming and PDD rode in one car. During the journey, PDD told Lu Yiming that he regretted not being able to sign her back then.

However, PDD has many regrets.

For example, he recently started to regret not investing in miHoYo.

Snapped!
The sound of firecrackers made everyone instinctively look outside the shop.

However, compared to the five curious people...

The store staff and customers all instinctively started looking for cover.

Only then did the group belatedly realize that this might be the sound of gunfire.

The gunshots were heard from afar.

However, PDD said with a sullen expression, "How about we go back to the hotel?"

This suggestion was approved by several people.

It's not that a few people are cowards.

With gunshots going off, who's in the mood to go shopping?!
After the group sheepishly returned to the hotel...

You can see the female assistant standing in the hotel lobby with slightly red eyes.

No crying or fussing.

He just stared straight at the five people.

The group stayed in Gotham for four days.

He returned to China that very night after the bell-ringing ceremony.

The group's most vivid memory of Gotham was the gunshot they heard while strolling through the streets.

However, this is probably just a normal occurrence for Gotham.
After all, as the old saying goes.

Happy America, gunfights every day!
...Divider line...

The platform that Jiang Yuanming was in charge of was set up.

At least we can start large-scale internal testing now.

After returning to China, Lu Yiming rushed back to Xingcheng overnight and arrived at the company without stopping.

Jiang Yuanming looked at Lu Yiming, who was testing the platform's functions, and smiled, "President Lu! Have you thought of a name for the platform?"

Hearing this, Lu Yiming nodded.

After shifting his gaze from the screen to Jiang Yuanming, he smiled and said, "Let's call it the Starry Sky All-People Esports Platform!"

The original idea was to call it a national esports platform.

However, someone had already registered this name in advance.

Lu Yiming would have bought it for a few hundred thousand, but the other party was asking for an exorbitant five million.

Lu Yiming simply added "stars" in front of it.

Hearing the voice, Jiang Yuanming nodded.

The two then began discussing the internal testing issue.

"My idea is to directly draw several hundred people from your fan base, Mr. Lu, and hire some professional beta testers to set up a server with a capacity of 1,000 people to run!"

Testing the battle platform is not as complicated as launching the game.

The main focus of this test was on the operation of the device "Diting" on different devices.

In reality, it could be said that they were testing the Di Ting (a mythical beast).

Lu Yiming's main strength was listening to advice; he was spending so much money to hire them to solve his problems. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Then let's start in August!"

August marks the end of summer vacation, and for the game CS:GO, the start of the school season is, in a sense, the time when spring truly arrives.

After all, the core player group is college students.

Staying at home during summer vacation doesn't necessarily mean you have the same freedom as being at school.

The platform initially only supports CS:GO.

More competitive games will be added in the future.

However, platform building is just the beginning.

Profitability is the key issue.

Renting services and maintaining the company's operations is no small expense, and Lu Yiming can't possibly rely on his own income to keep the company running just out of passion.

Lu Yiming came this time.

Jiang Yuanming brought up this issue again.

Regarding the platform's profit-making methods.

The current mainstream approach is to provide value-added services, such as smoother servers and improved user privilege levels.

Needless to say, smooth servers are commonplace, and 128-tick servers are already becoming widespread.

A major reason why the Chinese server isn't popular is that it's still using a 64-tick server.

Compared to 64 ticks.

The most noticeable benefit of the 128tick server is its excellent shooting feel.

of course.

It's still just food.

The strong become even stronger!
As for the so-called improvement of user privilege levels, it simply means grouping paid users together for matching, which would result in higher security and higher player quality.

But Lu Yiming's platform has eliminated cheating, so there's no need for it. You can't just copy CF and add a kick function, can you?
Then, how about preventing members from being kicked?

I heard Jiang Yuanming mention profits.

Lu Yiming frowned and said, "I've thought about all the things you mentioned before, but they still don't seem quite right. Let's start with the membership. How much should we charge? Twenty a month? Or thirty?"

Jiang Yuanming proposed that only members should be able to play the game on the platform.

After all, it's a platform without cheating.

This is tempting enough for players.

However, Lu Yiming felt that this was a bit excessive and explicitly rejected Jiang Yuanming's suggestion from the beginning.

at this time.

Jiang Yuanming walked over to Lu Yiming, leaned down, and pointed to a spot on the platform interface, saying, "President Lu! Take a look at this!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming looked in the direction the man was pointing.

This is a training option.

After moving the mouse and clicking...

You can see that multiple map options have appeared.

I wonder what's really going on in Jiang Yuanming's scheme.

After Lu Yiming randomly clicked on a Desert II map and entered it, his eyes lit up when he saw the list of selectable commands on the left after selecting a character.

For CSGO beginners

Setting up a custom-built room to practice throwing items and other items is very troublesome.

You need to memorize a lot of instructions.

For example, the ability to fly quickly.

However, all these complex instructions are now concentrated on the left side of the screen, and can be used simply by pressing the corresponding shortcut key.

There are also some map-related training modes.

Lu Yiming then conducted a test.

He chose side T.

Therefore, I directly selected the offensive throwable guide, and after opening it, I saw many tutorials such as the A pit gun position smoke tutorial and the A pit gun position smoke tutorial.

After selecting, a high-definition video will be loaded.

You can then try copying the operation on the map following the instructions in the video. The map will also be marked accordingly to help players understand the process.

Seeing Lu Yiming was quite interesting.

At this moment, Jiang Yuanming confidently smiled and said, "This is just one of the services I provide to my members. Player submissions will be available after the platform goes live! Further development of the map still depends on the players!"

I'll be updating with 10,000 words today.

I didn't sleep at all last night and got up early this morning to start writing.

Goodnight everyone!
Requesting monthly votes! Requesting recommendation votes!

There are currently 8000 words short of being updated!
