Live Cat Appraisal: Starting with a Beast That's Got a Long Prison Record

Chapter 98 The Queen's Return and a Familiar Back View

612411.

This is the current number of followers on Chen Nian's account.

Since embarking on this documentary journey, his fan base has been growing at an astonishing rate every day.

They gained nearly 50 more followers than before they set off!
The majority of these come from a tiny fraction of fan conversions.

It's because Director Zanghu's livestreaming time is too unpredictable.

They work hard for three days and then rest for two.

In contrast, Chen Nian's live stream room is practically a model student with a regular schedule.

It starts broadcasting in the morning, and you can still watch it when you get home from get off work in the evening!

Over time, more and more people developed the habit of watching Chen Nian's live stream, and the first thing they did after waking up was to enter Chen Nian's live stream to watch.

In addition, there's Chen Nian's daily, unwavering science popularization, and her cat-showing-off every two days.

New viewers were immediately captivated by the adorable, fluffy little creatures.

The number of followers naturally increased accordingly!

Now that the news of 'discovering a wild Asian leopard cat family' has gone viral, the first to benefit is Infinite Small.

After all, he organized this documentary.

The second beneficiary was Chen Nian, who broadcast the entire process live!

His latest video features a heartwarming scene of a leopard cat family interacting.

A Class II protected animal in China + adorable pet + maternal love.

With a combination of gimmicky tags, the video quickly went viral and became a trending topic. Almost every viewer who is interested in the pet industry has come across this video.

And most of them watched until the end.

The completion rate is ridiculously high!
This caused the video's views to snowball, breaking the 10 million mark on the same day, and the millions of likes pushed its popularity to the top!
Chen Nian's account gained over 70 followers on the same day because of this one video, and the number continues to rise as the video spreads.

According to Xia Qiyue's statistics, the day ended.

Chen Nian's total fan growth across all platforms has reached a full 20!
Especially on that little bit of Bilibili.

They extended an olive branch directly.

The fact that they hope Chen Nian will be certified as a well-known content creator on the platform, and even hinted that they are willing to coordinate the conversion of his live streaming platform, shows how much they value him.

This trend has also attracted the attention of other platforms.

In an attempt to replicate the traffic formula of "science popularization + live streaming + cute pets", many companies have assigned their own streamers the task of "treasure hunting in the wild".

However, there are very few successful cases.

Most of them became the subject of ridicule among the audience as "a poor imitation".

Of course, these are all for later.

The camera cuts back to the valley where the Xinlong team is camped.

Upon learning that her video had gone viral, Chen Nian didn't celebrate immediately. Instead, she went straight to Wuxian Xiaoliang and asked him worriedly:
"Brother Liang, is my video too popular?"

Will this give away any spoilers?

Although it had already received a tiny amount of recognition when the video was released before.

But such a surge in traffic still left Chen Nian feeling uncertain.

They were afraid it would affect the subsequent documentary.

Looking at the young man in front of him, who, despite the sudden surge of attention, first thought of the team's core project, Wuxian Xiaoliang's smile deepened.

He put down his equipment and gently shook his head.

Don't worry, it won't happen at all!

"The documentary content will only become richer and more in-depth, and the production will be more meticulous. Your video, on the other hand, is like a particularly good trailer, whetting everyone's appetite."

"That's good." Chen Nian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You," Infinite Quantity patted Chen Nian's shoulder helplessly, "Discovering the leopard cat family was the result of your own hard work, measuring step by step with your own feet and observing with your own heart. You deserve this attention."

"Relax now and enjoy the moment."

"It feels great to be recognized and liked, doesn't it?"

As a senior figure in the industry, he understands all too well how difficult it is to persevere.

I wasted a lot of time back then before I found the path that suited me best, and from then on I couldn't stop!
He believes that this humble and focused young man will have an even brighter future!
"Ok!"

Chen Nian nodded heavily.

He is getting closer and closer to his goal of having a million followers.

Once I reach one million followers, I'll not only receive rewards from the main quests, but I should also be able to help my family with my income!
Thinking of the forced smiles on her face during her last video call with her parents, Chen Nian's emotions couldn't help but fluctuate.

"Almost there! Almost there!"

Night fell, and countless stars, like diamonds, adorned the dark blue velvet sky.

A crisp mountain breeze, carrying the scent of grass and trees, swept through the campsite.

"No matter how many times I look at it, I never get tired of this starry sky!"

Chen Nian lay on the moisture-proof mat with her arm as a pillow, murmuring softly, her gaze lost in the vast Milky Way.

After a long while, he slowly closed his eyes and murmured:
"Xiao Mi, you think so too, right?"

Within the realm of consciousness, the emerald-green, furry figure seemed to remain perpetually slumped in the same spot. 'Ah~ yes, meow~'

It yawned widely, responding lazily.

Chen Nian said helplessly, "Still no energy?"

Since arriving on this land, he noticed that Xiaomi had become very inactive.

Ask Xiaomi why.

It said it was because of 'altitude sickness'.

Do even system cats get altitude sickness?
Chen Nian disagreed.

But Xiaomi wouldn't say, and he didn't ask again.

After gazing at the starry sky for a while, Chen Nian asked softly, "By the way, Xiaomi, why haven't we triggered any new side quests these past few days?"

There are currently only two tasks on the task panel.

Main quest – Gazing at a Million Stars – current progress: 682341/1000000.

And the long-term mission—the forest catcher.

Long-term mission: Forest Catcher
Rewards: For each creature successfully recorded, you will receive a certain amount of cat affinity points based on its rarity, as well as a mysterious random item.

Currently recorded: 3 (F1 generation desert cat, Pallas's cat, Asian leopard cat);

Current cat affinity level: 6;

Obtained item: Cat Crystal *1 (Greatly increases cat's intimacy level for ten minutes after use)

As for the other tasks, none of them have been triggered.

'Almost there, meow, almost there, meow~' Little Mimi's voice sounded like a dream.

She only slightly opened her eyes, glanced at the area Chen Nian and the others were going to, and then closed her eyes again to sleep.

Under the starlight, a white shadow appeared and disappeared among the outlines of the distant mountains.

'All right. ’

Chen Nian did not disturb Xiaomi any further.

As my consciousness returned to reality, the phone screen beside my pillow lit up at just the right moment, emitting a soft buzzing sound.

Lu Yao: "Is Teacher Chen asleep yet? (A cat emoji peeking out)"

"No," Chen Nian said, indicating that she was feeling very energetic.

Soon, Lu Yao sent a video with the caption: "Elsa's first cat show after her comeback! I knew the signal was weak in the mountains, so I didn't dare disturb your live stream. I specially recorded it for you to watch~(≧▽≦)/~"

Is this the Snow Queen's first battle since her comeback?

That's definitely not to be missed!
Chen Nian eagerly clicked to start the video.

In the video, crowds of blond-haired, blue-eyed people surge through the beautifully decorated exhibition hall, with flashes of light coming from one after another, creating a river of light.

Even though it's just a regional cat show, the level of excitement on site is comparable to that of a top-level competition!
All of this, simply because of that shining name on the contestant list—

Elsa!

Since Elsa's first owner passed away, this former champion has faded from the competition due to the need to adjust her condition. Now, she has made a high-profile return with the concern and expectations of countless fans, naturally attracting the attention of all fans.

Soon, the camera focused on the long-haired cat group.

When Elsa was gracefully carried onto the stage, the entire exhibition area seemed to fall silent for a moment.

It sat there quietly, its pure white fur shimmering like silk under the light, its fluffy tail like a noble ferret cloak, gracefully encircling its front paws.

Those signature ice-blue eyes, like those of a Siberian tundra lake, gazed calmly ahead. Without any deliberate gesture, the nobility, elegance, and subtle majesty that had been refined over the years already reigned supreme, firmly capturing everyone's attention!
Looking at Elsa's familiar yet more composed figure on the screen, Chen Nian's lips involuntarily curved upwards, and a feeling of relief and warmth, like reuniting with an old friend, welled up in her heart.

"You've recovered really well!"
Although it is still far from its peak state where it once dominated the competition, it has at least recovered to 80% of its former level.

And with only 80% of Elsa, she has already become the uncrowned queen of this time.

The result is no suspense.

When the referee gently draped the exquisite sash symbolizing the champion over Elsa's shoulders, the Ice Queen slightly raised her head, and a long-lost light flashed in her icy blue eyes!

That was the sharp gaze of a king.

It proclaimed the queen's return with the most powerful stance!

"Teacher Chen, did you see that?! Elsa won! She's the champion!"

Lu Yao's excited voice came through the video, filled with heartfelt joy.

Then, her camera began to pan, her voice carrying a professional commentary: "Look at this one over there, that's the runner-up of this competition, an extremely beautiful brown tabby Sissoin! Its structure, coat color, and temperament are all top-notch! If it weren't for Elsa's overwhelming presence, it would definitely have won the championship. I feel that in another year or two, it will absolutely become Elsa's strongest challenger!"

The fact that even a seasoned breeder like Lu Yao praised it so highly shows that this brown tabby Sissen is clearly extraordinary.

Chen Nian paused the video and carefully examined the runner-up on the screen with great interest:

Its magnificent brown tiger stripes resembled melted amber, shimmering with a wild luster under the light. With its well-proportioned and agile physique and its bright and intelligent eyes, it was truly outstanding.

However, just as his gaze swept past the excellent brown tiger, Spotted Sisson, two familiar figures instantly drew all his attention.

Those were the backs of two people standing by the booth, looking down intently at the runner-up cat.

"what?"
