Qinqin is so awesome

Sand City.

On the square outside the community.

At this time, there should have been square dancing.

At this moment, everyone was watching the live broadcast of the Star Sea Guild's Wonderful Night Awards Ceremony on a projection screen.

"Everyone, hurry up and vote for my son; it's the 27th, and there are only three minutes left. If the time is over, the vote will not be counted."

Mother-in-law Zhao Suling was holding a microphone and speaking to the hundreds of square dancers watching the scene.

She is canvassing for her son, Lin Xuanyu.

People in the nearby community basically know that Lin Xuanyu is an Internet celebrity anchor, and he usually holds live broadcasts here, and the number of viewers is large.

Today, Zhao Suling and her husband moved in a projector and a projection screen, and with the help of her son's team members, they put the live broadcast on the screen.

Many people are powerful.

Finally, three minutes have come.

The voting rankings have finally settled down.

"Oh, almost there."

It was a pity for Zhao Suling to see her son ranked fifth in the best male anchor.

"Don't leave, everyone; there are still awards to come. I must help my son win an award. I will hold a banquet for everyone to eat at that time."

Zhao Suling did not give up.

Although my son can't get the best male anchor, there are other awards, such as the funny anchor award.

At the awarding scene of the second signing anchor party of the Xinghai Association—Wonderful Night.

The results finally appeared on the big screen.

Best Male Anchor: Crazy Little Plum.

Best Female Anchor: Hanfu Xi Shi.

Both received more than 10 million votes.

"Congratulations to Crazy Little Plum and Hanfu Xi Shi, who won the Best Male and Female Anchor Award for this wonderful night, and now invite the two to come on stage."

Li Renbo announced the results loudly.

Suddenly, Crazy Little Plum and Hanfu Xi Shi, along with He Yingxia, who were sitting below, stood up, and the camera was aimed at them.

There was warm applause at the scene.

After the two took the stage, the camera then focused on Ye Cheng and Yan Shi next to them.

"Now we have Mr. Ye Cheng, the boss of our Pengcheng City Leader, to present the awards to the two award-winning anchors."

The two got up.

"Yan Shi, please."

Ye Cheng said it with a smile.

Yan Shi nodded with a smile, and then the two walked up to the stage one after the other.

When the two hostesses came over with their plates, Ye Cheng and Yan Kangming presented certificates and trophies to Crazy Little Plum and Hanfu Xi Shi under the attention of the crowd.

With the frantic flash of the flash, this memorable scene was captured.

Next, one-by-one awards were born from the votes of countless audience members.

With the birth of the last award, it heralded the successful conclusion of the second marvelous night of the signing anchor party.

Sand City.

"Hey, almost, my son almost got the Best Funny Anchor Award."

Mother-in-law Zhao Suling sighed.

Although she was desperately canvassing for votes and even sent it to her Moments... But she only ranked third in the most recent Best Funny Anchor Award, and she was still more than half a million votes away from the first.

"Okay, don't worry about it. Besides, there will be more opportunities in the future. Let my son work harder; maybe there is a chance."

Father-in-law Lao Lin comforted, "It's okay."

Zhao Suling nodded.

It was just the thought that her son still did not win the prize after trying so hard to canvass votes that made her a little embarrassed.

After all, she was bragging in front of many old friends who had danced square dances before.

It's a little embarrassing now.

The award ceremony for the Wonderful Night was successfully concluded with the last chorus program.

After the show,.

After Ye Cheng and Li Renbo saw off all the special guests, they relaxed.

"Old Li, how do you feel?" Ye Cheng laughed.

During this event, Li Renbo was busy. He probably slept for three or four hours in the past two days, and now he could clearly see that the dark circles under his eyes were very serious.

"It's okay; it just feels like walking on cotton," Li Renbo said.

"Okay, go and rest now." Ye Cheng waved his hand.

"It's okay, anyway; I'm very excited now, and I definitely won't be able to sleep," Li Renbo said.

Then the two looked at the party data.

Many insights could be gleaned from this data.

"Mr. Ye, Mr. Li, the peak viewership of today's party live broadcast was 39.48 million, and the total number of viewers exceeded 94.56 million, which is not much different from yesterday's live broadcast with merchandise. Interestingly, during the awards ceremony, a total of 114.29 million people voted." Hong Wanxin, the head of the technical department, presented a column of data from the background.

"It seems that our live broadcast party was really popular this time. If we hold it in the future, we will strengthen the planning based on this," Ye Cheng nodded and said. "Also, the success of this wonderful night event is inseparable from the efforts of all employees, so this month's salary will be doubled, and the planning department will issue an additional month's salary as a reward."

Whether it's selling live broadcasts as a competition, setting up 18 anchor awards, or holding an awards ceremony on a wonderful night, these were all ideas from the planning department.

I have to say, the effect was very good.

Many employees present cheered upon hearing this.

By the time the remaining matters were dealt with, it was already early in the in the morning.

Ye Cheng called Fei Wei, and they went back by car.

Although he could stay in a hotel, there was a pregnant wife at home about to give birth. If he wasn't with her, he definitely wouldn't be able to sleep. If something happened suddenly in the middle of the night and there was no one around, it would be troublesome. Although Aunt Xu was at home, she wasn't completely at ease.

Undoubtedly, the second signing ceremony of the Xinghai Association-Wonderful Night made it to the trending topic list and the hot search list on the second day.

For two consecutive days, the Xinghai Guild gained more fame.

The current Xinghai Guild was not only prominent in the field of live broadcasting but also gained recognition beyond the industry, becoming known by more and more people.

At noon, Lin Xuanyu came to Ye Cheng's house for lunch.

"Sister, did you watch the live broadcast last night?" Lin Xuanyu asked while eating.

"Of course I did. I also voted for you, but unfortunately, you are far behind the first and second places," Lin Yuanyuan laughed.

"No way, I can't compare to those two guys. Their videos are really funny, and they are hilarious." Lin Xuanyu shook his head and said,.

Although his brother-in-law planned several funny memes and jokes for him, he didn't have much humor himself, so he really couldn't compete with others in terms of being funny. Moreover, he felt that his fan base was reaching a plateau. Though the number of fans was still increasing steadily, the popularity of his live broadcasts hadn't improved much. As new fans came in, there were also old fans who gradually abandoned him. Unless he could improve the quality of his videos or make the live broadcasts more interesting, he felt the need to learn from his brother-in-law.

"Little brother, how are you and Liu Jia?" Lin Yuanyuan asked.

Liu Jia didn't come with her younger brother this time.

"We broke up," Lin Xuanyu shook his head and said.

"Why did you suddenly break up?" Lin Yuanyuan was surprised.

My brother had never mentioned this before.

"Who can bear the temper of her little princess, and she always wants to be an Internet celebrity? I can't let my brother-in-law open the back door, so I quarreled a few times and then broke up. Anyway, I can see it if it wasn't for me. She is a somewhat famous anchor; how could she be with me?" Lin Xuanyu said.

It was a little uncomfortable at first, but now that I've come out, it doesn't matter.

"It's okay; my little brother is so good; I can meet a good girl in the future." Lin Yuanyuan comforted her little brother.

"Hopefully," Lin Xuanyu smiled.

After eating, Qinqin suddenly said, "Uncle, let's go; let's go out to play."

"OK," Lin Xuanyu laughed.

"Sister, then I'm going out with Qinqin," Lin Xuanyu got up and said.

"Well, be careful when you go out; don't let Qinqin run around," Lin Yuanyuan nodded and said.

Lin Xuanyu and Qinqin walked out of the elevator.

"Uncle, this way," Qinqin quickly took Lin Xuanyu's hand and ran in one direction.

Soon, the two reached a pavilion.

"Qinqin, what are you doing here? My uncle will take you to the supermarket and buy you delicious and fun food," Lin Xuanyu asked curiously.

"That's not fun; eating too many snacks is not good for the body." Qinqin shook his head.

Lin Xuanyu was shocked. He hadn't seen his niece for a few months; how could she be so sensible?

Qinqin began to sprint.

"Qinqin, what are you doing?" Lin Xuanyu was very curious.

"I'm practicing martial arts, and now I'm doing the Zamabu. Uncle, don't disturb me next time," Qinqin said.

After Qinqin finished speaking, she fully immersed herself in the horse stance.

Lin Xuanyu was dumbfounded. Qinqin was practicing martial arts. To pull herself out, is it to practice martial arts and horseback riding? He had no choice but to sit beside her.

Bored, Lin Xuanyu could only sit next to her. He took out his phone and started Douyin.

I don't know how long it took, but Qinqin finally finished the horse step.

"Qinqin, can we go now?" Lin Xuanyu asked quickly.

"I just finished my horse stance, and I haven't warmed up to practice martial arts yet." Qinqin shook her head.

Lin Xuanyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Suddenly, Qinqin took a stance, stood on one foot, and then slowly raised the other leg, finally forming a word, and the toes touched the position of the forehead.

Lin Xuanyu's eyes almost popped out when he saw this scene.

Holy crap, Qinqin is amazing.

He quickly turned on the camera and started taking pictures.

Then Qinqin's toes lifted up as she stood on one foot, and her body did not shake in the slightest; it was ridiculously stable.

But in the next moment, Lin Xuanyu was so frightened that he lost his mind because Qinqin's body actually leaned forward and fell down.

He was about to get up and rush over to support him, but it was too late. Qinqin had already fallen to the ground, one foot behind and the other in front, striding out with a straight leg.

She didn't even get hurt, because Qinqin's two legs were forced to stand up slowly from the straight legs, and finally, they closed and became a standing position.

"Take this?"

Lin Xuanyu was a little unbelievable; is this what Qin Qin did?

This is outrageous.

Suddenly, Qinqin took a long breath, stomped her feet, shook her body, and began to practice.

The movement was slow at the beginning, but as it progressed, the speed became faster and faster, incorporating some difficult movements such as somersaults, side kicks, and iron bridges, but they were very coherent.

Moreover, Qinqin's body seemed to have no bones. It bent, folded, and twisted without any difficulty, which left Lin Xuanyu dumbfounded.

He was a little suspicious. Is this his niece?

I haven't seen her for a few months; how did she become so awesome?

Next, Lin Xuanyu was no longer worried that Qinqin would be injured because it was strange that Qinqin's flexible body would be injured.

So he quietly took a video.

After finishing a set of movements, Qinqin finally stopped, stood with both feet side by side, pressed down with both hands in front of her, and then slowly exhaled a suffocating breath.

At this moment, her hair was wet.

This set of moves was quite challenging for her.

It was a gymnastic movement specially designed for her by Fei Wei, which incorporated some essentials of Neijia Quan. When completing these movements, you must cooperate with breathing and posture.

The seemingly fancy movements exercised the muscles, blood vessels, and organs of all parts of the body, meeting the requirements of combining body and strength, strength and qi, and qi and blood.

When Qinqin could smoothly complete the whole set of movements in the fastest time, it meant that the entire force was fully exerted, and then she could follow him to practice the real inner boxing.

"Okay, uncle, I'm done." Qinqin laughed (it was good) and said, Hehe.

"Qinqin is amazing," Lin Xuanyu said, raising his thumb.

"It's alright, but unfortunately, it's still far from Uncle Fei's expectations," Qinqin said.

"Who is Uncle Fei?" Lin Xuanyu asked curiously.

"He's Dad's bodyguard. Uncle Fei is so powerful; he can split a tree with one punch and crush stones with two fingers." Qinqin's face was full of admiration.

It was precisely because of Fei Wei's great performances that she was completely fascinated by kung fu.

She wanted to be as powerful as Uncle Fei.

"So smart?" Lin Xuanyu also clicked his tongue secretly.

After returning home, Lin Xuanyu showed Lin Yuanyuan what he had recorded.

Lin Yuanyuan looked very nervous.

She didn't expect her daughter to reach this level under Fei Wei's guidance.

"Sister, let me tell you something. I want to make a short video of this footage of Qinqin and upload it to Douyin. Will you agree?" Lin Xuanyuan rubbed his hands together.

"Is that okay?" Lin Yuanyuan hesitated.

"Sister, what's wrong? Many children appear in videos on Douyin; Qinqin's actions are truly amazing," Lin Xuanyu said.

"That's fine, but you have to cover Qinqin's face," Lin Yuanyuan nodded and said.

"Thank you, ma'am." Lin Xuanyu was very happy.

As for covering her face, it was also to protect Qinqin.

With Lin Yuanyuan's permission, Lin Xuanyu quickly returned to the room, turned on the computer, and contacted the team to edit the video.
