Will the plagiarism girl be a substitute for the preference for women?

The screen displayed a beautifully designed interface. On the left was a box with a border decorated with light blue vines and fireflies, and inside was the display area for the bullet comments.

On the right is the Live2D version of the "Two-Faced Witch".

After minor adjustments, her facial expression became more natural and vivid, while the purple ends of her hair added a delicate, starry effect, making it consistent with the character illustration and fitting the witch's "astrology" element.

China also showcased the waiting screen, the entrance effect before entering the live stream, and the refined Live2D animation.

From the viewer's perspective, Xiangzi was quite satisfied with the UI design, and she asked curiously, "Was all of this content the work of the illustrator?"

"This artist has a dedicated team. She is responsible for the character illustrations, while others help her with the Live2D and UI design. This way, she can provide the entire set of content in one go."

Xiangzi nodded, then lowered his eyes and muttered, "I actually found someone to design the interface, and I was thinking of doing the live stream in a few days... but I didn't expect the whole thing to be packaged up."

It was as if she was trying her best to fulfill her responsibilities in many ways because she had received a 50 yuan advance salary.

"That's because I didn't communicate with you beforehand," Qian Nai waved her hand casually, telling Xiangzi not to worry about it. "From now on, you'll be in charge of the post-production editing and translation staff."

"Don't worry, the people I found are all quite excellent, especially in terms of game highlights. And here is the compensation they require. Take a look."

Xiangzi hired a Chinese editing team, renowned as the "world's best editor," and Qiannai felt an immediate sense of familiarity upon seeing their editing style.

"So it's the same edit as the one featuring the horse-faced guy..."

"What?" Xiangzi was stunned.

"It's alright, we can just leave it to them to cut," China said reassuredly.

…………

eight pm.

For virtual YouTubers in Asia, this is undoubtedly the prime time for live streaming, while also catering to viewers in the Western Hemisphere who are resting at home or taking a break from work during the day.

After a day of intense training, Ai Yin was finally able to relax with a nice bubble bath, then take an ice pop from the refrigerator before starting the live stream she had been looking forward to the night.

Unexpectedly, Lixi suddenly said that she really wanted to hold a live performance, which is why she needed to undergo such heavy training. She hadn't informed everyone beforehand, but Deng and Su Shi both agreed without hesitation, and Le Nai seemed to be in her element. There was nothing Lixi could do about it.

However, the lamp is more motivated than ever before. Xiangzi reconciled with her and hopes she can sing "Spring Shadow" at a live performance.

She said this wouldn't have been possible without China's help... China is truly radiant at all times.

Moreover, this is a live event co-organized with PopiPa, so being able to temporarily fill in for bands that couldn't attend is quite a stroke of luck, isn't it?

Even though the process of repeatedly practicing songs is inevitably accompanied by fatigue, I still want to be able to appear on such a stage.

Put aside your worries for now and relax by watching a live stream.

By the way, wouldn't it be more fun to watch the live stream with the band members via voice chat? Just like in the videos on YouTube.

Let's invite Chika as well.

Chapter 177 Whatsay?

Ai Yin then forwarded the live stream to the band's group chat, then started a voice chat and pulled China into the group chat.

Aiyin: Everyone, hurry up and join the voice chat! We're starting the broadcast.

The first characters to have voice acting added were Deng and Su Shi.

Ai Yin: Li Xi wants Le Nai to join the voice chat.

Lixi: I'm busy. Why do I need to use voice chat when watching a live stream?

Aiyin: It's more fun to watch together, the light is also in the voice.

[Li Xi joined the group voice chat]

Aine: "Okay, now we just need Rakuna."

Li Xi: "The stray cat doesn't read messages. It's hard to say whether she even turned on her phone today."

Su Shi: "Xiao Aiyin has also brought Xiao Qianna into the band group."

Aine: "Yes, but why didn't she join the voice call? I'll call and ask..."

Lamp: "Probably... busy."

…………

Soothing piano melodies played on the waiting screen of the live stream.

Meanwhile, the comments on the left side kept pouring out, so fast that you couldn't even finish reading a sentence before they were scrolling up.

Even though I was just sitting in front of the screen, it felt like I was standing in the center of a bustling stage.

[! ! ! ]

[]

[Sprint! Sprint! Sprint! Sprint! Sprint! Sprint!]

"Wow...oh my god."

China deeply understood the meaning of the term "white-hot".

She was both incredibly excited and extremely nervous. Under the 20-degree air-conditioned room, she kept wiping her forehead with a wet wipe, feeling like she needed to take another shower.

She regretted not looking at Xiangzi's mind map properly. Even if she didn't intend to follow a completely formulaic approach to audience interaction, having memorized the outline would at least give her a general idea.

Now, as I stare at the countdown to the live stream, my mind goes completely blank.

"Relax, little sister."

Xiangzi walked up behind Qiannai and rubbed her shoulders. She could feel Qiannai trembling all over.

"This is an honor that belongs to you, so accept the applause with confidence."

"Um...thank you."

"Don't worry about anything going wrong, I'm here," Xiangzi promised, holding Qiannai's hand tightly.

The implication is that when Qiannai needs a break during her live stream, or when she doesn't know how to respond to questions in the chat, she can use hand gestures to signal Xiangzi to step in.

With this safeguard in place, China's mindset did feel more at ease, but she still considered an unforeseen situation.

"If I get so excited that I lose my temper, remember to call an ambulance immediately."

Xiangzi smiled helplessly. She only hoped that this was a staged performance for the sake of creating a show, and that it wouldn't actually happen.

"There are three minutes left in the countdown." Upon noticing this, China's heart tightened again.

She stood up, gritted her teeth, and took a deep breath until it reached her dantian.

"hiss??"

After repeating this several times, China closed her mouth, relaxed her head, and spoke using her chest cavity.

“Dulu dulu dulu dulu…” Her lips vibrated, producing a trembling sound.

The scene looked somewhat comical, but Xiangzi remembered that her private music teacher had also demonstrated it, telling her that this was part of the process of warming up her voice, but that she would be formally taught bel canto after her voice changed.

However, it seems that the teacher has now been changed to Chika.

Next, China circled her lips around her teeth a few times, then made an exaggerated grin to lift her cheek muscles, and then yawned several times. After a series of seemingly informal actions, her oral warm-up was finally completed, like stretching her body before running.

Finally, she sang in the C major scale, gradually raising the pitch.

"Ah~ ah... ah~ ah??"

On the last sustained note, China raised her head and strained her voice to its limit, the sound field seemingly penetrating the bedroom and vibrating in every inch of air.

"Amazing..." Xiangzi exclaimed in amazement.

"Phew??" China clutched her chest, let out a long sigh of relief, and returned to her seat.

She was much more relaxed by now. Warming up her voice was part of the process before the actual singing, and it was also a way for her, as a music student, to get rid of her nervousness.

Just now, she even considered lip-syncing to avoid a mishap, since the person in front of the audience's camera is a virtual image, making it difficult to tell if they are lip-syncing.

Now, she can't wait to show off her singing voice in front of tens of thousands of audience members.

"Ten seconds left."

China brought the microphone closer to her face, while Shoko stepped back to the bedside and waited, holding her breath.

As a shooting star streaked across the sky, the live stream waiting screen switched to a background of a purple-blue starry sky, with a chalk silhouette of the Two-Faced Witch handwritten on it.

At the same time, the piano music in the background seamlessly transitions to the intro to Soaway.

"It's starting..." Deng sat up on the bed, unconsciously raising her knees and staring intently at the screen.

"Xiao Aiyin, have you contacted Xiao Qiannai yet?" Su Shi asked worriedly.

"I called her several times but she didn't answer..."

Aine prayed that China had simply forgotten her phone while cleaning, and that her illness had flared up.

……

"Lightemare~"

Light it up, light it up, tell me where you are.

As soon as the first sentence was uttered, the chat box was flooded with countless cheering comments.

"The heart."

The summer night was brightly lit, and a shooting star streaked across my heart.

"Imup~"

I called you but you didn't answer.

The lyrics on the handwritten note appear one by one, while the corresponding chalk drawings switch to appear.

……

"Causeelse."

Because I don't know how to love others.

“Iface.”

(I don't know how to forget your face)

The sound of the drumbeats became clearer, and a rose appeared in the very center of the handwritten message.

“Oh you…”

When this line is sung, the drumbeats become increasingly dense and stop as the vocals pause.

At the same time, a wisp of pale blue smoke rose from the bottom of the handwritten text.

“soaway.”

As the drums and cymbals struck in turn, the pale blue smoke completely enveloped the roses.

Immediately afterwards, an electronic music drop started, blue smoke exploded everywhere, and a group of stars transformed into the form of a two-faced witch. The atmosphere in the entire live stream room was instantly ignited, and large amounts of SC (Super Coins) kept popping up.

Wow!

[！！]

"Hi! Everyone!" the witch greeted confidently, nodding slightly in rhythm.

The music gradually quieted down, and the witch smiled silently, while the chat box and SC continued to flood with messages.

Ah, what are your thoughts on this magnificent sight?

After a light, cheerful laugh, the witch said leisurely:

"What say!"

"My first song garnered over 100 million views after its release, and now you're all watching my live stream. What more can I say?"

$1000 SC: [Slay the entire audience, no further explanation needed!]

Thank you, thank you so much everyone!

With such a wonderful start, China wanted to take a selfie with the live stream to commemorate the occasion.

But just as she took her phone out of her pocket, it showed several missed calls from Aiyin.

Oh no...

I originally wanted to avoid being disturbed by my phone ringing during the live stream, so I put it on silent.

Aine must be very worried right now...
