Chapter 45: Making Money

On Saturday, May 23, 2015, Lu Chen experienced a dreamlike night. That night, he sang in front of more than 2,000 audiences and won the warmest applause from the audience.

That night, he made the most money he had ever made in his life, selling an original work for 200,000.

That night, he got 5% of the shares of the Forget-Me-Not Bar, and transformed from a wage earner to a small shareholder partner! When Lu Chen signed his name on the share transfer contract, his heart was full of gratitude.

Grateful for that long dream, grateful for the three lives he experienced in the dream, grateful for Xu Bo, Mo Ran, and Fang Mingyi.

Lu Chen didn't know whether the world in his dream really existed, but he knew that he was extremely lucky! And the luck was not just that.

When he came to the middle-level VIP area of ​​the Blue Lotus Bar again, the live performance was about to end. Li Feiyu was still sticking to the live broadcast. He was so excited to see Lu Chen that he burst into tears.

"Look!"

He pointed at the screen of his laptop, his eyes full of gayness, which scared Lu Chen so much that he had goose bumps all over his body.

What are you looking at?

Looking carefully, oh my god!

Lu Chen saw that the number of online popularity in his live broadcast room had exceeded 300,000!

300,000+ popularity!

Lu Chen was really surprised and happy, as if a huge pie suddenly fell from the sky, and then "bang" fell on his head, and he felt dizzy.

In online live broadcasts, online popularity is extremely important data. It is easy to fake followers, but the number of online followers is different. Unless the website helps to fake it, it reflects the value of the anchor to a large extent.

The number of online fans in Lu Fei's live broadcast room has been growing all the time, but it has soared from the original peak of 100,000+ to 300,000+ in just two hours, which is really incredible.

After all, he has only been live broadcasting on [Whale TV] for a short time, and there are not many fans.

Now the number of fans has reached 170,000+!

"What's going on?"

Lu Chen couldn't help asking: "Tell me the truth, what good things have you done!"

Li Feiyu laughed: "We have made it to the popularity list on the homepage!"

The homepage of [Whale TV] has many lists to recommend major popular live broadcast programs and anchors. One of the most important ones is the site-wide popularity list, which is also the most competitive list.

The principle of the site-wide popularity list is to use the online popularity of the live broadcast room, the number of bullet screens, and the number of rewards to convert the corresponding values ​​using a fixed formula. The ones with high data will be automatically listed. Unless there is a violation of the rules and cheating, the website will not interfere.

There are only twelve spots on the popularity list of the entire site, and the position is very eye-catching, so once it is on the popularity list, it will definitely attract more popularity!

Lu Fei's live broadcast room rushed to the bottom of the popularity list when Lu Chen went on stage to sing, and then the popularity surged and continued to this day.

As a new anchor of [Whale TV], his live broadcast room actually made it to the homepage list without Lu Chen hosting on the spot, which can really be said to be a miracle.

After Li Feiyu finished explaining, he shouted triumphantly: "Long live the Lu Family Army!"

To win such a result, Lu Chen's fish fan group Lu Family Army is absolutely indispensable. Li Bai alone rewarded 15T fish balls, which boosted the atmosphere of the entire live broadcast room.

Since the live broadcast has been going on, although the camera is facing the direction of the stage, the microphone is all-round.

So the conversation between the two was clearly heard by the fans in the live broadcast room.

"Host, is the host back?"

"I heard the host's voice, it's Lu Fei!"

"Long live the Lu family army!"

"Host, I want to see your face."

"The host is handsome, really handsome."

"I've seen the host's performance just now, those two songs are so great, I want to listen to them again!"

"Listen to them twice more!"

"Three times!"

"..."

When Lu Chen saw it, he immediately adjusted the camera and microphone.

He waved to the camera and said, "Hello everyone, I'm Lu Fei, welcome to my live broadcast room, I hope you like my songs and this music carnival night performance!"

"Also, thank you all for your support, thank you so much!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the screen was instantly filled with enthusiastic comments, accompanied by countless fish balls.

"I like it! I like it! I like it! I like it! I like it!"

"The music carnival night is great, I really want to see it live!"

"Host, you're welcome, take the fish balls!"

"I just want to listen to Lu Fei sing."

"I like it too."

System prompt: Call me Li Bai (Silver IV) will give the host an aircraft carrier!

System prompt: Big Brother Whale (Gold VI) will give the host an aircraft carrier!

Amid the clamor, the two aircraft carriers rumbled and crushed all the barrages, bringing fireworks to the screen, as if celebrating Lu Chen's success.

Two familiar rich friends!

Lu Chen looked at the number of fish balls and found that the number of fish balls added tonight exceeded 40T!

It's normal to be on the homepage popularity list.

He quickly expressed his gratitude to the two rich people, although it was a bit vulgar, but it was also sincere.

The live broadcast ended at 11pm.

This real live broadcast brought huge popularity to Lu Fei's live broadcast room. By the end, the online popularity had climbed to 350,000+, the number of fish fans was 180,000+, and the new rewards were 45T.

45T fish balls!

According to the 65% after-tax share, Lu Chen made nearly 30,000 yuan that night!

Adding the fish balls accumulated some time ago, he directly cashed out 50,000.

The 50,000 signing fee from [Whale TV] has been received, and the sum of the two is 100,000. Then, with 200,000 songs sold, Lu Chen will be able to transfer 300,000 to his family tomorrow!

In the past, he would have to work very hard for four or five years to earn this amount of money, but now it has been less than half a month.

Lu Chen closed the computer, stood up and said, "Let's go for supper, spicy crayfish as much as you want!"

"Three bowls!"

Li Feiyu raised three fingers and said proudly, "I will eat at least three bowls!"

Lu Chen laughed, "As long as you can eat it, thirty bowls will be no problem!"

In his mind, a loud and majestic song suddenly sounded.

"I make money, I don't know how to spend it!

I bought a Nokia with my left hand and a Motorola with my right hand,

I changed my phone number every day for my China Mobile and China Unicom PHS,

I took a Mercedes-Benz and a BMW, and then I went to the sauna and ate lobsters!

I make money, I make money..."

Stop, stop!

Lu Chen shuddered, and quickly dispelled the distracting thoughts in his head, took his equipment and went out for supper with Li Feiyu.

Walk south to the end of Houhai Pedestrian Street, and cross the intersection to a small street full of the style of the old Beijing city. Various snacks are its biggest feature. Although it is almost midnight, it is still bustling with people.

Jia Ji Lobster Restaurant is in the small street. The main Xuyi lobster is very famous. When Lu Chen and Li Feiyu entered, it was almost full of people. Business was booming.

The two were lucky to grab a double seat in the corner of the hall, and then ordered a "Three Shrimp Fairy".

A pot of spicy crayfish, a pot of braised crayfish and a pot of pepper and salt crayfish, plus two bottles of iced beer, it is really worth it even if you give it to a god!

Lu Chen and Li Feiyu didn't waste any words and started eating directly.

After finishing two pots of lobster and two pints of beer, Li Feiyu touched his greasy mouth and said, "Dachen, your live broadcast room is very popular. It's time to show your strength. It's not suitable to continue living in the basement!"

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Yes, I am also considering changing to a small apartment. How about we rent together?"

The basement he rented now is really too simple. It is hot in summer and has no heating in winter. There is not much privacy. Even singing and playing live at night has to consider the problem of affecting neighbors.

Lu Chen's lease expires this month. If Li Feiyu didn't mention it, he would have thought about changing to another place.

"My lease is until next year, and the renovation cost a lot of money."

Li Feiyu shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about me, let's talk about you. Xiaomei's sister has a single apartment that she wants to rent out. The location and environment there are very good, and the house is also new. Are you interested?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Since it's Xiaomei, I must go and see it!"

Li Feiyu giggled.
