This star just wants to make more money

Chapter 19 Showdown
Two days later, the much anticipated PK competition will begin.

But Cheng Luan just couldn't stay calm at home.

"It's been two whole days. Two days. The live broadcast is going to start today! Xu Feng, what are you doing!"

"Didn't you promise to take action?"

Cheng Luan held the big-screen mobile phone in his hands, looking at Xu Feng's dead account, his heart was hanging in the air.

This highly hyped live broadcast PK is about to begin - even the live broadcast platform has made an unprecedented official publicity, with a large-scale banner promotion for this PK on the platform homepage.

Many big spenders who spent a lot of money in the live broadcast room were also attracted by this PK. They clicked to make reservations and even interacted with each other in the comment section under Xu Feng’s video.

It involves the hottest variety show at the moment, two singers, and a very hotly discussed topic. Even the platform knows to take advantage of this opportunity to get more traffic!

How come Xu Feng doesn’t care at all?

"What's wrong with Xu Feng? Why isn't he in a hurry at all?" Cheng Luan sat on the sofa, shook off her gorgeous skirt, and said in a somewhat indignant tone, "And this is unfair. The other side is obviously bullying."

A few days ago, Cheng Luan felt much calmer after receiving a reply from Xu Feng - she felt that since Xu Feng assured her not to worry, he must have made adequate preparations.

Either they have an advantage in the rules, such as stipulating that PK is allowed, but only for Xu Feng's original songs. In this way, the original creator himself will have a very big advantage.

Or they could learn from the other party and create momentum in the public opinion field to offset the impact of the other party's purchase of traffic.

No matter how bad the situation is, it is still up to the challenger to choose the PK song and set the winning and losing conditions.

But after waiting for several days, Cheng Luan found that Xu Feng had not taken any action at all. Apart from sending a video that had no other function except to prove that he was still alive, he actually accepted the other party's challenge in its entirety!
From song selection to victory and defeat determination rules, and even the PK time, the other party put forward a lot of conditions, but Xu Feng did not refute any of them, but just replied with an OK.

He really has the demeanor of a master, and he is really handsome. However, Xu Feng’s level does not seem to be much higher than the other one at the moment!
If you just do whatever others tell you to do, aren't you afraid of falling into a trap?

When Cheng Luan was feeling very disappointed with his friend, a clear and stupid figure flashed before his eyes.

Cheng Zhao, who had just finished his chores, said, "Sister, are you still obsessed with Xu Feng? Since you are so rich, why not just pay him to buy traffic online?"

Cheng Zhao's elder sister is a successful person who cashed out tens of figures in the financial market and left smoothly. She is now living a "retired" life early.

Everything is good, except that he is infected with Xu Feng, alas.

"That won't work." Cheng Luan said seriously, "That's what his celebrity management team should do. As a qualified fan, all I can do is buy peripherals, post comments, listen to his songs on official websites, go to his concerts, etc., and support him in this way."

You really have principles. You're a fanatical fan but a rational fan, right?
Cheng Zhao thought about it carefully, and then pointed out a very critical problem: "But sister, he doesn't seem to have released the things you mentioned, and you can't support it."

Not only the normal things mentioned above, Xu Feng has never even done a live broadcast. The live broadcast that is about to start today is, after all, just an online competition.

Many people want to support Xu Feng but can't find any channels to do so.

However, this also means that Xu Feng has no intention of taking the live streaming internet celebrity route, which at least gives Cheng Luan some comfort.

Cheng Luan was still stifled by her brother's words. She was speechless for a moment. She pressed her temples hard and said in a rare tone of exasperation: "Xu Feng really pissed me off..." "By the way, how did you meet Xu Feng at that time? Repeat it word for word."

She felt that she should get to know her "male god" again, as knowing him only from the screen seemed a bit too one-sided.

The concert that day left a deep impression on people. Cheng Zhao said without much recollection: "Well, didn't I buy a VIP ticket for Lin Shenghuan's concert? She would randomly select a lucky audience member to sing on stage, and I was unlucky to receive the ball... Sister, you know my singing level. My parents beat me up for the whole night because of this."

Cheng Luan crossed his legs, recalled the experience when he was a child, and nodded in agreement: "He deserves to be beaten."

Cheng Zhao continued with a bitter face: "I didn't think too much at the time, and directly passed the ball to the person next to me, Xu Feng. At first, he didn't seem very willing to go up and sing."

At first, Xu Feng didn’t really want to sing on stage?
So this actually happened?

Cheng Luan thought that Xu Feng wanted to go on stage to perform on his own initiative.

"I added a sentence later, saying I would treat him to a barbecue after the song, and his attitude immediately changed. He was willing to go up and sing immediately. And after the song, he came down to find me to make sure I would really treat him to that barbecue... I felt that if I changed my mind at the last minute, Xu Feng would just eat me up."

After listening to her stupid brother's recollection, Cheng Luan fell into a brief silence. The living room was awkward for seven or eight seconds before a deep suspicion flashed across her bright eyes: "Just for a barbecue? He doesn't look like he's in dire need of money, does he?"

If Xu Feng really needed money urgently, would he not do anything to cash in?

Apart from anything else, the copyright of the song is at least a relatively considerable income.

But until now, the studio version of "Ugly" has not been available on various music platforms.

Is it...

A very ridiculous idea suddenly occurred to Cheng Luan's mind.

Does Xu Feng need some kind of incentive before he is willing to condescend to move?
No...that's not the case, right?
"Sister, the live broadcast is on!"

Cheng Luan came back to his senses from his speculation, reached out to take out his mobile phone, and opened Bilibili. As soon as the mobile page was loaded, he saw a very conspicuous live broadcast recommendation on the large banner recommended on the homepage of Bilibili.

"A duel of honor between masters of unpopular musical instruments. Who will have the last laugh?"

The live broadcast has just begun and Xu Feng is not yet ready, but the number of people in the lower left corner shows that nearly one million viewers have poured into the live broadcast room!
Most of these audiences couldn't tell the difference between guitar and bass, but they showed amazing enthusiasm for this PK.

Such dignified competitions, where the winner wins face and money while the loser loses everything and never gets to hold his head up again, have always been popular.

Many people don’t really like Xu Feng or hate Xu Feng, they just want to see a confident person fall into the mud and look embarrassed after losing.

If both sides are confident, it means that at least one of them will be embarrassed.

Cheng Luan was worried. The first thing she did when she entered Xu Feng's live broadcast room was to recharge her account and prominently display her own questions in the most conspicuous position in the live broadcast room in the form of paid barrage.

"How is the outcome of this PK determined?"
