Chapter 15: Lively Live Room

Back on stage, Lu Chen sang two more songs.

He did not sing "My Deskmate" and "Cinderella" again, but chose two love songs that he was good at, which also won a lot of applause and rewards. After leaving the stage, he also chatted with several tables of familiar guests.

"Xiao Lu, you sang the first two songs so well!"

An old customer praised: "You wrote well too, you are talented! If I open a record company, I will definitely sign you!"

Another guest at the same table laughed: "There are really few good original songs nowadays. Listen to those idols, young idols, boy bands and girl bands, they are all covers of European, American, Japanese and Korean songs, and the style is like they were pressed out of the same mold."

"Yes, yes, the really good songs are still from the 1980s and 1990s."

"Haha, you say nostalgia is good, others will say you are out of date!"

"That's not the case, everyone has different tastes."

Lu Chen spent most of the time listening, occasionally speaking a few words, the atmosphere in the Forget-Me-Not Bar has always been good, the relationship between the guests and the singers is very harmonious, everyone sits together and chats like friends, there is no pressure.

Seeing that it was already past 10 o'clock, he got up and said goodbye, and the guests did not keep him.

The bars in Houhai are open at night, and the prime time is from 11 to 2 in the morning. However, this time period belongs to the contracted singers. Lu Chen no longer needs to be a waiter, so there is no need to stay.

He got his performance fee from the bar's finance department.

The salary and tips of resident singers are paid in cash. Lu Chen sang a total of 5 songs in the evening, 30 yuan per song, which is 150 yuan. The tips are the biggest part, and 70% of the share is 2150 yuan.

2300 yuan is all the money Lu Chen earned tonight.

If you can have such an income every day, it is not a dream to earn 100,000 yuan a month, but this is impossible.

Because the guests of the Forget-Me-Not Bar are basically not the rich second generation, they are very rational in giving tips. The reason why Lu Chen can earn more than 2000 tips tonight and last night is entirely because of his transformation in singing and playing, plus the freshness and touching of the two original songs.

But impulse cannot last long, so under normal circumstances, he can only earn 10,000+ per month at most. If he wants to earn more, he needs to go out and sing in other bars.

From the perspective of income alone, as long as a bar singer has a stable venue, it is still very good. At least in a place like Beijing where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, it is not a problem to make a living.

But the problem is that few people can do this for a long time. Most people come with the dream of becoming famous. When the dream is broken, they can only return sadly or sink completely.

Lu Chen also has dreams, and his dreams are big.

He left the bar, deposited the money at the ATM machine on the pedestrian street, and then ran to the nearby subway station.

It was exactly 11 o'clock when he returned to the basement where he rented.

This speed is considered fast, and there are not many people in the subway at night. Otherwise, if it were daytime, the subway would be crowded to death, and it would not be so smooth at all.

Li Feiyu was not at home. The last night of the weekend was his fixed happy time.

So the first live broadcast in the evening was entirely up to Lu Chen.

The microphone and camera had already been replaced. He turned on the computer and logged into the Internet. He entered his account and password on the main page of [Starlight Show] and soon entered [Lu Fei Live Room].

Although Lu Chen's computer was very old, it had no problem running the live broadcast platform. His clear image was immediately displayed on the screen.

"Hello! Hello!"

Lu Chen said "Hello" twice to the microphone to test whether the equipment was running smoothly.

What surprised him was that five or six subtitles popped up on the screen immediately.

"Yangtze River, Yangtze River, I am the Yellow River!"

"I heard you, I heard you, Boss, you are finally online, we have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Celebrate with flowers!"

"Wife, come and see the handsome guy!"

"..."

It was only then that Lu Chen noticed that the number of people online displayed above the anchor interface was 427, which means that more than 400 people were waiting for him to start broadcasting, so the barrage appeared so quickly.

Although he had posted an announcement before, setting the time of his first broadcast at 11 o'clock in the evening, he did not expect so many viewers to come to support him. He was excited and a little touched.

"I am so sorry."

Lu Chen said quickly: "I just came back from get off work, and I didn't calculate the time well. I kept everyone waiting for a long time. Sorry, sorry!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the barrage increased suddenly.

"The anchor has to work on weekend nights? Which company is so inhumane!"

"Yes, yes, let's all call the supervisory department to complain!"

"And he works until 11 o'clock, that's too much!"

"I feel sorry for the handsome guy!"

"..."

Lu Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly, and quickly explained: "I sing in a bar in Houhai, I'm a bar singer, and my working hours are at night, so I'm late."

"Houhai? I go there often, which bar , I don't think I've seen the anchor before!"

"So it's a bar singer, no wonder she sings so well!"

"Stop talking nonsense, let the anchor start singing, my ears are already **unbearable!"

"So **? Then find a cotton swab and poke it, you will feel good."

"Hahaha"

Lu Chen felt very happy watching the lively barrage, the uneasiness brought by the first independent anchor soon disappeared without a trace, and his mood relaxed unconsciously.

The atmosphere of online live broadcast is completely different from that in the bar, but it feels really good after adapting.

The number of online people is increasing rapidly, from the initial 427 to 725, and the barrage of greetings is constantly refreshing.

This is unimaginable to perform in a bar, which is the charm of the Internet!

"Huh? I feel like the host seems to have changed rooms, not the original Fei Ge's room!"

"It's just a change of room name, what a fuss!"

"囧rz, I'm talking about the host's current home, haven't you seen it?"

"Yeah, yeah, where does the host live? The conditions are so bad!"

"It should be the basement, I've rented a similar one before."

"I feel sorry for the host!"

"..."

The audience's discussion suddenly turned to the room where Lu Chen lived.

The old community for decades, and the space converted from the basement, the small room naturally didn't have good conditions.

Although Li Feiyu and Lu Chen are neighbors, he paid for the room to be renovated, and it undoubtedly looks much better, not as simple as Lu Chen's.

System prompt: Happy 888 (Silver I) gives the host 100 Starlight!

System prompt: Superman wearing underwear outside (Black Iron II) gives the host 100 Starlight!

System prompt: Abyss Dragon Rider (Bronze V) gives the host 100 Starlights!

System prompt: Crystal Jelly (Bronze II) gives the host 100 Starlights!

...…

System prompt: Emperor Li Bai (Gold III) gives the host 1 Starry Sky Battleship!

Another Starry Sky Battleship, and it's Emperor Li Bai again!

Before Lu Chen started singing, the audience's rewards came one after another, and Emperor Li Bai gave him a high reward of 1 Starry Sky Battleship again.

A Starry Sky Battleship not only means 1,000 yuan, but also an opportunity to show up on the entire live broadcast platform.

Lu Chen's heart couldn't help but feel a little warm. Obviously, these viewers saw that the living environment he rented was very poor, so they used rewards to express their support and condolences.

At this time, the number of online popularity exceeded 1,000 in the blink of an eye, and the growth rate was extremely rapid!

Lu Chen subconsciously looked at the number of fans following the star.

5279!

What happened?

Lu Chen couldn't believe his eyes. You know, at noon, the number of fans following this anchor account was only 2722. How come it doubled in the evening?

Lu Chen had just started playing [Starlight Show]. Although he had learned a lot of common sense through Li Feiyu, he was still a novice after all. He didn't know much about the situation, so he couldn't figure out the problem.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Anyway, it's not a bad thing, it's a good thing!

"Thank you, Emperor of Prophecy Li Bai, for sending me the Star Battleship."

He said to the microphone: "Thank you for your support. I will first sing the song I composed for you. The name is You, My Deskmate. I believe many friends have already heard it. I hope new friends will like it."

After a short pause, Lu Chen continued: "Tonight, there will be another original song dedicated to everyone!"

Without looking at the barrage of comments on the screen, he held the guitar and began to sing "You, My Deskmate".

"It sounds good!" "It's touching!" "I want to cry!".

The charm of this classic is unstoppable. Whether in the Forget-Me-Not Bar or in the [Starlight Show], whether you have heard it or have just entered the live broadcast room, you are all deeply moved.

The most important thing is that after many performances, Lu Chen has a better grasp of the emotions contained in this song. Coupled with his unique voice interpretation, it is enough to overwhelm these live broadcast audiences who originally had low requirements.

After singing "My Deskmate", the song received rave reviews and the screen was filled with starlight from the rewards!

Lu Chen continued to sing five songs in a row, all of which were popular classics that he was good at. Although they were not as sensational as "My Deskmate", they also set the atmosphere of the live broadcast room high.

During the intervals between singing, Lu Chen also interacted with more and more viewers and answered many questions.

Li Feiyu told him that it was very important to open an interactive session in online live broadcast. It was difficult to mobilize the emotions of the audience by simply singing. Chatting with everyone or telling jokes could not only bring people closer, but also give your voice a proper rest.

What online live broadcast pursues is the fan economy. Only with popularity can you make money. The number of fans the anchor has determines his position on the live broadcast platform. It is really a winner-takes-all situation!

Lu Chen still lacks experience in this area, but as long as he is willing to put down his status, it is not difficult to deal with these enthusiastic audiences. Although there are a few people who seem to be deliberately making trouble, most of them are very good.

Time passed quietly in this interactive communication and singing performance, and it was already 1 o'clock in the middle of the night.
