Chapter 22 : Ultra Funny Aesthetics!
Sun, a Douyu executive watching this live broadcast, appeared excited as if he'd found a treasure.
He seemed to envision a rising superstar PUBG streamer.
Immediately, he made a call to his subordinate.
"Contact this person, Ming, at once. Spare no expense to sign him! Change the originally proposed B-level contract to an A-level. If they refuse, escalate it to an S-level!"
The subordinate was shaken; Douyu's contracts range from D to S levels.
D-level contracts are insignificant, C-level indicates some fame.
B-level contracts are for fairly popular streamers.
A-level belongs to the realm of well-known streamers, typically with around 50,000 followers who've purchased a fan badge, each costing at least ten dollars.
Streamers with 50,000 fan badges typically maintain an average audience of around a million viewers per stream.
S-level streamers are top-tier; currently, both Little Tuantuan and Dumb Little Sister hold S-level contracts.
Their fan bases exceed 100,000, and their streams average around two million viewers.
Above this, there's the SS level. However, within Douyu, only two people have this contract: the recently returned former professional player, the current streaming king PDD, and the remaining milk powder king, the eight-million-strong warrior, Xuxu Baby.
Both of their contracts are double S-level, with fan bases nearly reaching a terrifying one million or more.
Douyu's willingness to sign Jiang Siming with an S-level contract is an unprecedented exception.
Initially, Douyu only intended to negotiate a B-level or at most an A-level contract with Jiang Siming.
But after witnessing Jiang Siming's exceptional skills, executive Sun foresaw Jiang's promising future.
Another crucial point is that Douyu hasn't seen a PUBG top player for a long time. Here, being the top player doesn't just refer to popularity but also requires top-notch skills.
Although they've brought in XDD, OMG, and 17 other experts, their skills are commendable, but their popularity lacking.
After Weishen left, Douyu couldn't surpass Huya, which boasts 4AM's full team, in the PUBG scene.
This is Douyu's pain, and Sun values Jiang Siming's potential, hence the unprecedented use of an S-level contract.
...
Two minutes later, the castle returned to tranquility.
If not for the scattered boxes on the ground, no one would have imagined the ferocity of the battle that took place here.
Dumb Little Sister and Tuantuan, two girls who had been hiding by a castle wall, heard the absence of gunfire and cautiously asked Jiang Siming.
"Is it safe to come out now? Are they gone for the moment?"
After Jiang Siming's reassurance, the two girls relaxed and ran into the castle to search for items.
The girls remained silent, but their faces, filled with admiration and hearts, betrayed their feelings on the other side of the computer.
It's not that they didn't want to speak, but they were completely engrossed and hadn't recovered from the excitement yet...
A total of ten kills, three squads, twelve people.
Two of them were killed by members of other squads, the rest were eliminated by Jiang Siming.
Among the ten boxes, three were glowing: two gold and one white.
The loot was rich; Jiang Siming rushed to collect the first gold fragment.
"Collected [30000 credits] fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity reached maximum, can be used directly."
Thirty thousand, not bad at all.
Jiang Siming happily collected it and dashed to pick up the second gold fragment.
He initially assumed it was credits but was surprised to find that this fragment offered something completely different.
"Picked up [Audi RS7] fragment *1 (1/2), fragment quantity not complete, unable to use temporarily."
Audi RS7?
Isn't that a car?
Jiang Siming took a moment to look up the price of this car.
Wow, the base price is at least 1.8 million Credits.
If you buy it, it'd be at least 2.3 million.
"I didn't expect a gold fragment to yield something like this!"
Jiang Siming was delighted; with just one more fragment, he'd own a luxury car!
Temporarily suppressing this excitement, Jiang Siming headed towards the final white fragment, which turned out to be a gaming skill.
"Picked up [Melee Weapon Mastery] fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity reached maximum, can be used directly."
It's a bit underwhelming, but it might come in handy; having an extra skill is always good.
The three thoroughly searched the castle. Coincidentally, an airdrop appeared 500 meters away from them.
Outside the castle, there was a three-wheeled motorcycle, perfect for three people. If they were a team of four, it would have been tricky to divide.
As soon as the two girls spotted the three-wheeler, their eyes lit up.
Almost simultaneously, they holstered their weapons and rushed towards the motorcycle.
If one didn't know better, they'd think they were racing for the airdrop.
Dumb Little Sister, closer to the three-wheeler, swiftly pressed 'F' and switched to the second seat.
The second seat was at the back of the motorcycle, allowing her to wrap her arms around Brother Ming's waist.
The two girls were vying for this seat for the emotional closeness it offered. Those who understood were equally amused.
Failing to grab the second seat, Tuantuan felt regretful. If only she had spotted the vehicle earlier.
Would she have to settle for a cramped spot on the side? Would it look any different from parents taking a child?
Reluctant to give in, Tuantuan quickly turned to Jiang Siming with a request.
"Little Brother Ming, how about I drive this time? I've never driven in the snow before. I want to experience driving in snowy terrain."
Without suspicion, Jiang Siming agreed, taking the third edge seat.
"You!" Dumb Little Sister was frustrated. She hadn't expected this cunning move; it was so sneaky.
"Chuckling~ Chuckling~" Tuantuan laughed like a fool, occupying the driver's seat without hesitation, with Dumb Little Sister behind.
"Dumb Dumb, hold on tight, feel free to hug my waist!" Tuantuan smirked.
Dumb Little Sister snorted, not wanting to hug her waist at all!!!
Under Tuantuan's control, the three headed towards the airdrop.
Though the journey was bumpy and nearly led to a crash, they safely arrived at their destination without incidents.
No one else had reached the airdrop yet. Quickly looting it, they found only one MK14 inside.
As Jiang Siming didn't know how to use this weapon, he gave it to Dumb Little Sister, who lacked a sniper rifle, while he held onto an SKS.
Inside were three Level 3 helmets and three Level 3 vests. Both girls didn't move and willingly handed them over to Jiang Siming.
VIP treatment in full display.
Interestingly, there was also a Snow Ghillie Suit in the airdrop.
Tuantuan took it, and after putting it on, she transformed into a snowman, happily emitting chicken-like clucking sounds.
"Willump! I'll save you, Willump! I'll save you! I can save you. I can..."
Tuantuan imitated the voice of the Snowman Knight from League of Legends, Nunu. Although it was funny, it was also surprisingly accurate.
Dumb Little Sister was amused by her and started imitating Mundo.
"Mundo not remember Mundo before Mundo was Mundo!"
The deliberately 'rough' voice couldn't help but make people burst into laughter, and the two girls laughed heartily together.
"Little Brother Ming, you also try one."
"Yeah, Brother Ming, your voice is so nice, give it a try!"
With their playful behavior, the two girls even wanted to involve Jiang Siming.
Jiang Siming replied, "I often feel out of place with you both because I'm not silly enough."
Hahaha... everyone burst into laughter, what a golden line!
Unable to resist the 'pleading' of the two girls, Jiang Siming could only indulge them.
"Who should I imitate..."
Jiang Siming thought for a moment and quickly came up with an idea.
