Chapter 306: The True Appearance
Old man Geng hesitated and decided to return to the third floor, firstly, because the security there was better, at least there was no such thing as a fight on the street, and of course, more importantly, he had to feedback the results to the seller on the other side after talking with Mr. G.
And because Zhang Heng had to return to Xu Qian's side later, Miss F sent four subordinates with a relatively clean foundation to follow Old Man Geng back to the third floor to protect his safety.
In the House of Old Things, Old Man Geng paid Zhang Heng fifteen shellac records at one time, as the latter's reward for protecting him this time, plus the one that he had made a deposit before, which was equivalent to giving Zhang Heng six more copies on the basis of the original plan, which was regarded as a thank you to Zhang Heng for keeping him from the hands of the mobsters.
"That's all I have in my collection of shellac records, and I don't have any more." After the old man Geng handed over the record to Zhang Heng's hand, his tone was much more polite than before, after all, he had witnessed Zhang Heng's combat effectiveness not long ago, "And those building blocks will be given to you, no need to pay rent." β
Zhang Heng didn't shirk when he heard this, and took over the shellac records, and at the same time, the system's prompt sound sounded in his ears, reminding him that he had gained another 150 points.
"Do you have any way to collect shellac records?" Zhang Heng then asked, "I can find a way to raise money to buy it, or I can also use services instead of payment like this time." β
"Why are you so passionate about shellac records?" Old man Geng glanced at Zhang Heng with some strange eyes, "There are very few of these things...... It's not easy to collect, and it has no use value in itself, only the rich people on the fourth or fifth floor will collect it, I want to help you, but if this transaction goes well, I guess I will leave New Shanghai 0297. β
"You're getting out of here?" Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows, "Why." β
Old man Geng's face showed a look of hesitation.
"Forget it, I don't have any interest in your private affairs, just tell me who I should find to help me collect shellac records after you're gone."
Old man Geng thought for a moment, "This piece belongs to my trade secret, if I decide to leave here, I will send you his name and contact information the day before." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
When Zhang Heng returned to Yacheng Community, it was about 11 o'clock in the evening, and Xu Qian had not yet gone off the air.
Zhang Heng put the golden hamster that Miss F gave him on the table, took a shower first, cleaned up the remaining blood stains on his skin, and then walked out of the bathroom in his newly bought yukata.
took a glass of water, sat on the sofa, turned on the projection, and entered Xu Qian's live broadcast room as familiar as a few days ago, and opened the chat room of the fan group on the other side.
In the live broadcast room, Xu Qian had just finished dancing, her cheeks were flushed, and she was chatting with fans about a game that had just been released.
As far as Zhang Heng knows, Xu Qian herself does not play games, but from the big data feedback in the background, it can be seen that many of her fans are game nerds, so about half a month ago, Xu Qian began to try to chat about some games in the live broadcast in order to stabilize her declining popularity, and for this reason, she also checked a lot of black words in the game circle on the Internet.
I have to admit that this trick is quite effective, especially when a cute girl speaks black like an old fritter in the player, this contrast is indeed very attractive, so the night of the live broadcast is also the first time in the past month that the number of people in Xu Qian's live broadcast room has stopped the downward trend, and there is even a slight rebound.
After tasting the sweetness, Xu Qian also officially decided to adopt this strategy, and would chat about the game for a while in her live broadcast every night.
But as the conversation became more and more, many people began to realize that she was just a shelf who didn't know where to learn some black words, and the number of people who were cold and sarcastic gradually increased, and the number of online people in her live broadcast room began to decline again.
However, compared with the previous downward trend, it has slowed down a bit, so Xu Qian didn't care about the black fans in the live broadcast room.
She also talked about this when she chatted with Zhang Heng last night, in Xu Qian's words, people are actually very contradictory creatures, and the audience who came to her live broadcast room shouted that they wanted to see her true side, but in fact, no one really wanted to see her real side.
Xu Qian gave an example, saying that when she first signed the contract and started broadcasting, she didn't understand any routines, she was a pure rookie, the lighting, and makeup were the same as usual, she wore a sweater that was dirty and scummed, wrapped herself tightly and turned on the camera, and talked about more feminine topics.
But she was a newborn calf at the time, and she was still full of confidence in herself, because she also studied those popular anchors and felt that they were all hypocritical, and at first glance they were deliberately set up, and some were even very contrived, not as sincere as her.
She believes that in contrast, fans will know who to watch.
As a result, reality quickly gave her a blow to the head, and the number of online people in her live broadcast room every night was very bleak, and some of the anchors who signed contracts with her in the same batch have already relied on pure personalities, or even just coquettish to gain a large number of fans.
So Xu Qian finally put away her naΓ―ve thoughts, gritted her teeth and used her first month's salary to buy a valuable cosmetics and gave it to an old lady in the industry who was once a smash hit, but is now on the verge of regression.
The eldest sister had a meal with her for the sake of that set of cosmetics, and taught her a lot of experience and routines accumulated in live broadcasts over the years, because the eldest sister herself was about to quit this business, so she didn't hide her secrets, which also benefited Xu Qian a lot.
And Xu Qian also relied on these experiences and routines to gradually explore and establish her own personality, dressing style, including chat skills, etc., and finally ushered in the peak of her career.
"All the people you see on the web, all, they're not real." Xu Qian said, "Do you think I like to wear a cat's tail in front of the camera in all kinds of stupid poses, and like to talk about games that I don't care about at all?" β¦β¦
"Sometimes I also feel that I am no different from the goods on the store shelves, we are created by the market and big data analysis, wrapped in beautiful packaging, dazzling, just to cater to different needs, sometimes you see a product of yours, it seems to be very special, but that's just that it is designed to be special, in order to attract customers with special needs, and once a certain type of product is popular, then there will be countless products that follow the trend in the market.
"I still remember the first thing the eldest sister said to me that night, no one cares what kind of person you are, people already have a certain purpose before watching the live broadcast, even if sometimes they don't realize it, either because of loneliness, or because of some primitive impulse, or because they want to have a fantasy object that is clear and pure...... Find these desires, give them what they want, and then you can get what you want too. β
