Chapter 694: Investors Driven by Interest!

Pei Qian watched Ma Yang’s soaring livestream audience and Weibo fans, but he could do nothing.

However, the worst news was not the increase in fans, but that the netizens in the livestream and Weibo were starting to have fun bickering!

He had to say that Old Ma giving DGE players special training had become too good of entertainment for the audience.

There were also a large number of players who heard that Boss Ma would throw money on Weibo so they went to Weibo to follow him and left messages, turning into a carnival.

After the three games, a large number of viewers were attracted to the Old Ma’s livestream, and his popularity exploded!

Ma Yang’s huge face was full of smiles in the camera.

“Okay, let’s stop here for today’s practice. I should go to Weibo to do some business.”

The DGE players finally heaved a sigh of relief, leaning on the gaming chairs and feeling like their souls were sucked out of them.

The mental stress playing with Boss Ma was greater than the global finals!

Ma Yang took a can of Coca-Cola from the club’s fridge and opened it in his seat with a ‘psst!’ He raised his head and drank half a can, feeling that it seemed like a good opportunity to promote his popularity and began to communicate with fans in the livestream.

“Please follow me if you have not done so. You don’t need to give gifts; I don’t need this bit of money.

“Why follow me? Where can you find a player who can command and operate like me? Isn’t my technique worthy of attention?

“I said before that I couldn’t win the game at the very beginning because my teammates were too lousy. Didn’t I immediately carry the game after changing to four ordinary teammates?

“Alright, I’ll see if there are any new dreams on Weibo that I can realize.”

The viewers in the livestream were already trying to adapt to Old Ma’s thinking, but they showed a full screen of question marks when they heard his words.

“?????”

“Boss Ma really feels that he is very skilled?”

“You invited all the star players from each club and then told me that these are four ‘ordinary teammates’?”

“I also want to have such ‘ordinary teammates’!”

“What Boss Ma said really makes sense. I have found the reason why I kept losing in the Bronze Tier! You give me Huang Wang and Jiang Huan, and I will be in the Honor of Kings!”

“Boss Ma’s expression is too serious. I can’t tell if he is actually serious or joking.”

“Boss Ma really did so much for this team! If it weren’t for Boss Ma, this game would have ended in 20 minutes!”

The fans were entertained by Old Ma. It’s not terrible to be bad at the game, but the terrible thing would be… that person himself not knowing about it!

However, it would make people feel that he was doing it deliberately if he really did not show that he knew, which is wonderful.

Many people felt that such a powerful investment genius like Boss Ma, who could easily make a 500-million profit, could not possibly be stupid! His behavior was completely illogical!

Therefore, it must be a performance!

Once most people thought that way, they would start to accompany Boss Ma in his performance. ‘DGE special tactical coach’, ‘DGE Spiritual Leader’, ‘Boss Ma Toplaner Smash Jiang Huan, Boss Ma Mid-laner smash Huang Wang’… and the bullet screen comments were coming in at full speed.

Ma Yang flipped through his Weibo with a smile on his huge face.

His fans increased by hundreds of thousands with one afternoon’s work!

Ma Yang could not help but sigh. “As expected, I have the potential to become an internet celebrity! How would Lu Zhiyao have his place today if I wasn’t delayed by investments!

“Let me see if there are any new dreams to fulfill.

“Oh? There is a classmate here who does not have good computer and internet speed in the university dormitory, which is why he cannot enter the Honor of Kings. He hopes to be sponsored with a good set of equipment…

“No problem! Esports dreams must be supported. Your strength might be lower than mine, but it also shows that you still have a lot of room for improvement. Come, I’ve sent money to you to get your own ROF.”

Ma Yang commented on these dreams while browsing Weibo.

“Sigh, so many dreams are not creative.

“It’s very hard for me to send the Dream Fund into your hands if you are so superficial.

“Everyone must write sincerely to move me since they are dreams.”

Ma Yang released the Dream Fund while broadcasting a livestream on Weibo. The atmosphere in the livestream was even more explosive now!

Their messages in Weibo refreshed every few seconds, which was even faster than Old Ma could read.

Most messages did not have any profound meaning to them, but Old Ma patiently searched for dreams to be completed within them.

In addition to the full screen of 666, some people started to become curious about the identity of Old Ma.

“Boss Ma, what is this Dream Fund? Tell us!”

“I heard that Boss Ma once invested in IOI and made 500 million yuan directly for Tengda Corporation. Moreover, you are an outstanding employee? Can you tell us what happened?”

“Investment genius Boss Ma, can you help me choose a stock?”

“Boss Ma, I heard that you are the able right-hand man of Boss Pei. When will you livestream with Boss Pei?”

“Boss Ma, can you talk about your career? Give some direction to this university dog who is about to graduate?”

Ma Yang paid attention to the bullet screen comments while flipping through his Weibo, answering them one by one.

Ma Yang’s huge face was suddenly filled with seriousness, seeing ‘investment genius’.

“I cannot be considered an investment genius!

“In fact, I haven’t had any investment-related knowledge at all. Being responsible for investment was completely based on Boss Pei’s trust in me.

“Boss Pei gave me 20 million yuan at the beginning and asked me to invest in what I liked based on my instinct. I happened to see that the foreign game IOI was doing well so I smashed all the money into it!

“Come to think of it now… a huge portion of it was actually luck.

“As to the investments after that were basically things that I felt more interested in…

“The Fully-Automated Bickering Machine for example was something that I felt was particularly interesting and managed to convince Boss Pei to invest in it.

“Therefore, please don’t overly glorify me. The 500 million yuan was just luck.

“I’m just an investor of my interests.”

Ma Yang’s words were met with explosive bullet screen comments.

“F*ck, is this the real Boss Ma?”

“Boss Ma was doing entertaining effects when he boasted his own gaming level previously? Boss Ma is actually someone this humble?”

“Investors dictated by interest! Wow, other investors invest because of money while Boss Ma invests in interest, admiration… and admiration!”

“At that time, Boss Ma dared to directly use 20 million yuan on IOI. Such judgment of the situation and decisive power is really amazing! Boss Ma is too humble; this is definitely not something ordinary people can do!”

“I always think that all the bosses are silly, but I changed my mind seeing how Boss Ma is! Boss Ma is a truly admirable entrepreneur and investor, second only to Boss Pei in my mind!”

“No wonder Boss Ma is friends with Boss Pei, the same kind of mind, determination, and vision. They are so awesome!”

“To be honest, the image of Boss Pei is ‘close to demonic intelligence’, like a god who is aloof, too far away from ordinary people. People who are grounded like Boss Ma are like us. An example for ordinary people to learn!”

“I’ve become a fan; I’ll support Boss Ma all the way!”

Pei Qian nearly fainted looking at the bullet screen comments in the livestream.

What the heck?!

Old Ma was telling the truth; how did you all supplement everything with your imagination?

His lousy skills in games had not become a point to be angry about him, but a cute point?

Pei Qian had a bad feeling that things had gone out of his expectation.

He did not think that a person like Old Ma could actually obtain fans?

Was something… wrong with this world?

However, thinking about his experience, he felt that this world seemed to be okay. It had always been this way; the one with the problem was himself…

“No, I cannot continue letting Old Ma gain fans like this. I have to think of something.”

Pei Qian thought for a while. What did Old Ma rely on to obtain these fans?

The popularity of the DGE Club!

The four veteran players started a livestream with him and attracted fans, and the rate of increase in fans was simply leveraged.

Therefore, he could not allow Old Ma to live-stream with the DGE players to increase fans; he had to rely on himself.

He should show his original form if he had to rely on himself, right?

As the saying goes, it would show if one’s virtue did not fit one’s position.

A person like Old Ma who had no ability, a pure slacker, and with the occasional good luck was raised to such a position. A huge number of fans would naturally reject being a fan once his nature was exposed.

It was precisely because of this that Pei Qian was so resistant to being famous and had been trying hard to keep a low profile.

So, don’t look at how Old Ma was attracting some fans now. His popularity would definitely drop soon as long as he left the DGE team!

There were so many Internet celebrities that have exploded in popularity overnight, but only a few could maintain it because there was no real talent and no real learning.

Pei Qian thought it over, and he called Ma Yang after his live broadcast ended today.

“Hello? Brother Qian, how did you know that I just stopped my livestream? My fans increased to nearly 200,000 today, so awesome! I really have the talent to become an internet celebrity!”

“…” Pei Qian was very speechless. “Erm, Old Ma, I have something to tell you.”

Ma Yang: “Please tell me, Brother Qian.”

Pei Qian stopped for a short while. “In the future, try not to find the DGE team for your livestream. That is going to affect their training.

“Moreover, it’s enough to attract fans once. The audience wants something different and fresh, but they would get tired of it after a while. It’s not good to lose them for that; what do you think?”

Ma Yang was silent for a while, pondering: “Well, Brother Qian, what you said makes sense! But… I’m too clever to match my teammates. I can’t carry them; it’s boring.”

Pei Qian: “…then, you can think up something else. You said that you have the talent for being an Internet celebrity. That must mean learning to sing and being proficient in everything.”

Old Ma realized it suddenly. “Yes, Brother Qian, I understand! I will think about new performances and change the way to grow my fans!”

Pei Qian nodded. “Yes, do your best; I’m sure you can do it!”

Pei Qian revealed a smile on his face after he hung the phone up.

Fortunately, Old Ma was a very easy person to fool. A few words cut off the possibility of him and the DGE Club stabbing himself in the back.

However, he did not know what sort of performances Old Ma would come up with.

His phone rang again after throwing it to one side.

He took it up. It was a message from Huang Sibo.

“Boss Pei, the overseas box office of ‘Tomorrow is Beautiful’ has been received in our accounts! 14 million US dollars, which is nearly 100 million yuan!”

The smile on Pei Qian’s face froze when he saw the message.

Holy sh*t.

This… this was a little too fast, right?
