Chapter 100 (1/2)
Failed Authors Promoting Themselves
Having acquired the abilities of “Yu Shengfan”, however, Zhao Youyue had to refrain herself from activating “Yu Shengfan’s” mode. She was afraid of turning into a braggart, then she would insult her cousin Zhao Hao during his upcoming ranking match[1]. “What’s with numb fingers, a second-degree handicap? You’re better off raising pigs at home with this hand movement speed”
Anyway, she did not want to offend her simple-minded and “easy-to-coax” rich cousin. This would bring her no benefits at all. Besides, Zhao Youyue still wanted to get her red packet from him. He must give her at least 80,000 to 100,000 RMB, otherwise how could he claim that he was richer than Ding Yuncong, right?
After showing off successfully before his little cousin Youyue Meimei, Zhao Hao proceeded to look at the Overall Tipping Ranking on Qidian. He found out that the top three spots were “WistfulFallenSoot”, “Fning”, and “HollowValleyStar”,who had tipped 1,800,000 RMB, 1,700,000 RMB, and 1,200,000 RMB respectively.
Zhao Hao sniggered, “What? The highest tip is just 1,800,000 RMB, I can surpass them someday. Oh yeah, let me give this account to you. If there are any books that caught your interest, you could just grab the seat of Silver or Golden Sect Master.”
Not only did Zhao Hao like to show off, he enjoyed bringing people beside him to swagger around. Since he liked his little cousin Zhao Youyue, thus he gave her such opportunity too.
Zhao Youyue gladly accepted it with a smile. She now owned two Qidian accounts, one was “Youyue” while the other was “ImYouyueHerBrother”. “Youyue” did not rank even the top 100 of the ranking, she probably had to spend more than 50,000 RMB to be there. Until now, she had tipped Su Li a Silver Sect Master. Plus the Sect Masters she tipped other authors, still she had spent approximately 50,000 RMB. Compared to her cousin Zhao Hao who never paid a hoot to money, she was absolutely nothing. After spending more than 110,000 RMB, “ImYouyueHerBrother” was already 48th in Overall Tipping Ranking.
“Big bro, you have reached 48th place in Overall Tipping Ranking at once,” Zhao Youyue reminded him while pointing to Overall Tipping Ranking.
To appear in the rankings was quite impressive. Do not forget that there were a lot of “manipulation” accounts created by the “High God” level authors to tip their own works, making them looked more popular. They would probably tip themselves a Silver Sect Master, just 10,000 RMB anyway! To them who always manipulated their works’ popularity, this was a small amount of money. To maintain their works on the ranking board, they could spend a lot more than that.
Looking at the ranking board, Zhao Hao got bored as he thought that such a small amount of money had made him in the 48th place. It seemed that this Qidian website did not really have godly tycoons. Sigh, showing off on this small website would only ruin his reputation. Anyway, he had spent this big money solely to see the smile on his Youyue Meimei.
Thinking of which, Zhao Hao closed the Qidian main page which bothered him, and continued to read the novel on the pirated website. He had no intention of reading the original novel, but he was afraid of being despised by Zhao Youyue, Thus, he still asked her to activate automatic subscription to the original novel for him.
Zhao Youyue could never understand. This guy has tipped such a big amount, why is he not reading the original novel, what is he thinking?
However, Zhao Youyue could not give him a cold shoulder anymore for not reading the original. The amount that Zhao Hao tipped this time, the money he had spent on the webnovel, had exceeded what one was not able to earn for their entire life. Assuming that 1,000 words cost five cents, the Qidian coins he had tipped could actually purchase billions of words…
Zhao Youyue assured her cousin Zhao Hao, “Brother, you’ve tipped so much, later you could enjoy the author’s worship before them.”
Zhao Hao jokingly asked, “Is the author a beautiful girl?” Zhao Youyue told him that the author was already a married uncle. Zhao Hao naturally lost his interests and shook his head, he said, “Ahh, I don’t need a married uncle’s worship. Is there no beautiful girl among the authors?” Zhao Youyue then showed him the picture of Su Li, but he was not interested in her at all and he bragged that all the women with whom he slept were ten times more beautiful than this lady.
Zhao Hao felt a little bit awkward after bragging about that. After all, the listener was her little sister, not his spoiled friend Ding Yuncong. He had always looked down on Ding Yuncong who was a fan of Internet beauties. Nothing much, it’s just that the girls with whom he played were all of the low standards, yet he brazenly mentioned that he was an advocate of non-marriage. Just be honest that he wanted to play with more girls!
Of course he would claim directly that he despised the Internet beauties. While abroad, he had dominated the women from all countries. Now, he would only play with the actresses in the entertainment circle, and they must not be too famous or have undergone plastic surgeries. He felt that he had played women like how Wanjun Meimei played her games, they both had standards.
