nXiang Yi was a little surprised.
n“That’s right, this is a request from the viscount. He wants to watch the cooking process of the delicacies and…” The creative director hemmed and hawed, unable to finish what he wanted to continue saying.
nXiang Yi asked, “What’s the matter? Do you have any other requests?”
n“He wants you to aim to reach one million viewers for the livestream on MOON.”
nThe creative director felt that this request was too unreasonable because MOON was a livestream platform from France, where livestreams were less popular. Besides, most of the users of MOON were locals, so one million viewers was quite a staggering number.
nIf it was a livestream hosted by local celebrities instead, it might be possible to achieve one million viewers; but Xiang Yi and Shi Sui were not well-known in other countries. How could they possibly achieve it?
nThe viscount was obviously out to make things hard for them!
n‘His personality is not just eccentric, he’s simply perverted!’
nShi Sui asked with his eyebrows raised, “One million?”
nThe creative director answered with a miserable expression, “Yes, why don’t we find another venue to shoot at? There’s quite a nice winery estate that I know of, but we might have to change our shooting plan…”
nXiang Yi and Shi Sui looked at each other. Shi Sui was smiling, while Xiang Yi was deep in thought
n“Are you sure he just wants us to garner a million viewers? Nothing else?”
n“This is already a task that’s impossible to achieve. If he has any other requests, the viscount would really be inhumane!”
nTo his surprise, Xiang Yi nodded calmly and said, “That’s good.”
nIn fact, garnering one million viewers was a difficult task for most people. Xiang Yi felt that she couldn’t do it because she didn’t seem to have many fans.
nHowever, there was Shi Sui who had plenty of fans.
nShi Sui said, “Please help us prepare the equipment to be used for the livestream.”
nThe creative director sighed and said, “Alright.”
n‘This poor hunk and beauty are probably going to suffer a huge blow! How pitiful.’
n…
nThe livestream had begun.
nThe creative director used his connections and asked several friends of his to help share the link of the livestream, so that there would at least be a few viewers.
nThe current number of viewers in the MOON livestream they were hosting was 579.
nIt may not be considered a huge number in China, but it’s not too bad in France.
nThe creative director didn’t forget to send a copy of the link to the livestream to the viscount.
nMore than ten seconds later, a notification popped up on his phone. It turned out that the viscount had shared the link to the livestream with his personal account.
nSoon, the number of viewers of the livestream surged to 3,804.
nThe creative director exclaimed, “Unbelievable!”
n‘The viscount is truly worthy of being a famous gourmet! He’s so influential!’
nShi Sui said, “Let me share the link on Weibo.”
nXiang Yi said, “I’ll reblog your post. It’s too troublesome to type.”
nAlthough he didn’t understand what the two were saying, the creative director smiled bitterly when he watched the pitiful Shi Sui fiddle with his cellphone, while the equally pitiful Xiang Yi tapped twice on her cellphone screen. He had heard that celebrities in China tend to have massive numbers of fans each, but he didn’t know many fans the both of them could influence to watch the livestream.

n‘Ten thousand? Or maybe twenty thousand at most,’ he thought.
nThe creative director closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he abruptly froze in shock.
nThe number of viewers had surprisingly soared to 205,864!
nThe creative director was dumbfounded.
n‘Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Or am I hallucinating?’
n‘How did the number of viewers suddenly multiply into more than two hundred thousand!?!’
nIt took him half a minute to confirm that the number of viewers was really above two hundred thousand!
nHowever, the numbers seemed to be stagnating.
nIn the next second…
nThe number, which had been stagnant for a long time, was refreshed.
nA string of numbers appeared, almost blinding the creative director!
nCurrent number of viewers: 5,976,531!
