19 RISE TO UP10 (2/2)

Meng Fan looked around his studio, noticing there were no other people around. Without worrying about disturbing others, he began to speak. ”Before I log off, I will draw one more.”

”Holy sh*t you scared me!”

”Hahaha I was a bit freaked too, this host can talk!”

”You don't say, Meng fatty's voice is pretty nice.”

”Mother f**ker It's been almost two hours!”

”In less than two hours he had drawn seven characters, what a genius!”

”F**k he's ending a stream after just two hours, do you have any professional ethics?! As the saying goes, you've gotta keep going until you vomit blood at least.”

”The host is from art school?”

”Is he really logging off?”

”What are you going to draw for your last one? Is it gonna be another seductive woman?”

”Whatever you draw, I love watching it!”

”This style of drawing feels different from before!”

”Hahaha, of course, it's another seductress, with long hair and a curvy figure!”

”Is this outfit a latex suit? Too intense man!”

”Wait it's not a latex suit, it's just a tight uniform!”

”I can't tell who it is, can anyone who's an expert explain?”

”He drew another gun!”

”Is this... Mine Fujiko?”

”So many gorgeous women, my god!”

”Such a charming woman!”

”She looks so elegant!”

”Who is Mine Fujiko, why does she sound so familiar?”

”The people that know Mine Fujiko, are your kids already beating their own kids?”

”It's normal to know Mine Fujiko, in Japan she's on many public voting polls, and she's always near the top!”

”Mine Fujiko is really well known okay? Her influence is impressive too. A lot of anime characters use her as a basis for inspiration, for example, Kudo Shinichi's mother, while Gintama also features someone with her characteristics.”

...

Background, color.

The last drawing also did not take long.

After he finished, Meng Fan relaxed his fingers, read the live comments and answered some important questions, such as when he would be streaming again tomorrow.

”Tomorrow night at 7:30, loli special, I'll try to draw ten.”

Meng Fan ended the stream and let out an exhilarating scream. This was exciting.

After looking at his stats, he saw he already gained 500 or so followers—this ratio was quite rare to achieve. He had received 2.1 million gourds worth of gifts, valued at over 2100 HXB. After the 50:50 split with the streaming platform and subtracting the silver gourd rewards. Meng Fan had earned 900 HXB just from this one stream.

Of course, Meng Fan also knew that most of the gifts among here were from his friends who wanted to support him. Once he really began streaming, it might not be this lucrative.

21 million gourds worth of gifts, with each gourd at a 100:1 ratio for level points, Meng Fan had earned about 21,000 points, hence raising his stream level to UP10.

He looked again at his mission progress. 2800 viewers, which meant he was close to completing the first task phase of 10,000 viewers. Only two or three more streams to go!

”Meng fatty, not bad!”

”Meng Boss are you serious about streaming?”

”Fatty's got balls!”

”...”

As he was packing, Meng Fan was pulled into a new WeChat group, adding up to seven people including him. Most of them were from his Otaku circle on 8th Station, or he knew from Vocaloid concerts. He was on good terms with all of them.

”Fat bastard if you're doing this for real and your stream blows up, I'll introduce you to the group chats I manage that have thousands of people.”

”I have some chatrooms as well that were formed because they like art streams, most have over 500 people.”

”Did you sign a contract with 8th Station yet?”

”You have to certify yourself on Weibo!”

”You need a Tieba account? I got it covered!”

...

The group chat exploded with messages, more dedicated than even Meng Fan.

Firstly, it was because they were good friends, secondly, because they were enthusiastic about the subject, and last of all, it was because Meng Fan's live stream really had potential.
