Chapter 623: Chapter 642: Qian Song: The Perfect Mole, The Ultimate Thrower
After Jiang Qiuqiu blocked him, Qian Song’s fury was so intense it felt like it could burn into reality.
This was the first time anyone had shown him such blatant disrespect since he had secured his position as an heir.
He decided—
To f**k her over.
A temper like his, once lit, burned long and wild.
He was perfectly living up to the label Jiang Qiuqiu had given him—’a petty man who becomes a tyrant with a little power’. Right after their confrontation, he waited until the exact moment her stream was scheduled to start, and then he went to the tech department.
"I want this person’s stream to lag."
As the parent company, the Federation Live Broadcast Company had control over all the channels on its platform. Now, Qian Song was demanding the technical staff to "manage" Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream, making it so a portion of her fans couldn’t watch it properly.
The technician: ??
"But, Manager Qian, she’s a high-priority streamer—"
’This tactic was usually used to threaten less popular streamers. For them, "a portion of viewers" was a small number, so it wouldn’t cause a major incident.’
’But for a streamer this massive, even just one percent of her audience was a big deal.’
"Are you saying I can’t handle the responsibility?"
"See her category?" Qian Song stared at the technician, his gaze sinister. "She’s in the Food section, which means she’s under my authority. Now, are you going to do it or not? If not, I’ll find someone who will."
"..."
She had no choice but to comply.
Soon, one percent of the viewers in Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream began experiencing video stuttering and audio lag. The channel lost one hundred million concurrent viewers.
But for Jiang Qiuqiu, who regularly pulled in six to seven billion viewers, one hundred million was a drop in the bucket.
A scoop of water taken from a massive river—visible, but insignificant.
Qian Song watched as Jiang Qiuqiu, live on camera, didn’t even bat an eye.
How was this supposed to demonstrate his absolute power over the streamers under his command?
"Throttle it more."
"But—"
"Do it. I’ll take full responsibility if anything goes wrong."
’He pictured himself towering like a mountain, with the entire Food section of the Federation Live Broadcast Company cowering at his feet.’
-
No one could have predicted Qian Song would be such a f**king idiot.
Not even Qian Xingxing himself had seen this coming. After all, back before he was forced out, his shameless older brother had at least shown some sense and tact in front of Qian Duoduo.
Even after taking over the division, while the schemes he came up with were sometimes crude, they admittedly had market potential and were profitable.
Qian Xingxing had thought, ’He might not be a brilliant entrepreneur, but at least he’s smart enough to make money.’
And yet—
Just as New Star was established and ready to set sail, with Jiang Qiuqiu and Qian Xingxing still figuring out the fastest way to get started, Qian Song himself had delivered a powerful tailwind.
The kind of RUMBLING, ROARING tailwind that threatened to sweep them off their feet.
-
While Jiang Qiuqiu was in the middle of her stream, Qian Xingxing and Meimei arrived with a contract.
The robot butler let them in, and the two entered quietly, sitting down on the sofa in the small sitting room to wait.
Today, there was no main course. Instead, it was a special stream dedicated to simple yet delicious snacks.
For example, she was making hot-toffee-spun corn cakes, Xiao Mi rice crisps, and fried bananas for the first time on stream, along with previously featured pumpkin cakes, glutinous rice-stuffed lotus root, and milky mochi.
Sweet and deep-fried foods, rich in calories and energy, also boast the most delectable aromas.
The chat room was once again bubbling with excitement.
Besides, frying was relatively quick, and this time she was making a huge batch.
She was using a basin that was seriously bigger than a bear’s backside.
"Welcome, everyone, to my food stream! It’s the weekend again. You’ve all worked so hard with your studies—it’s tough, but I hope it’s been rewarding."
"I’ve been learning so much, and I hope that today, all of you can learn some great and useful new tips from me. Then you can make some snacks for the people you care about!"
