Everyone at the Xia Country Endangered Species Research Institute supported Lin Xuan's decision to care for one of the Giant Panda cubs.
After all, he was a streamer who loved animals and was willing to help Giant Panda cubs. He was a genuinely positive role model.
The Xia Country Endangered Animal Research Institute was also willing to help promote Lin Xuan.
That way, perhaps more people would come to love animals as well.
In this day and age, some people only had a passing fondness for animals. Once that enthusiasm faded, some small pets would be abandoned by their owners.
And abandoned animals became strays.
There had once been a highly inaccurate estimate that Modu alone had roughly more than 200,000 stray animals.
And if they relied solely on stray animal rescue stations, there was simply no way they could save them all.
So, if those who wanted to raise animals saw the streamer's livestream room, they might think things through more carefully.
Caring for an animal could not be sustained by a fleeting burst of affection.
To humans, cats and dogs only lived for a little over ten years, but to the animals themselves, that was an entire lifetime.
Thus, with the Xia Country Endangered Animal Research Institute's promotion, more and more viewers gathered in Lin Xuan's livestream room.
After cleaning up the Panda Cub's droppings, Lin Xuan took a moment to glance at his livestream room. To his surprise, quite a few new viewers had appeared.
The discovery caught Lin Xuan off guard and left him a little confused.
(Haha, look at how confused the streamer is. Did he notice that there are more and more people in the livestream room?)
(Haha, I think fewer people would be better. Fewer people means fewer trolls.)
(As an old viewer, I've been watching since the streamer first started broadcasting. He's genuinely a good person. If anyone dares to trash-talk him, I'll be the first to tear them apart!)
(Yeah, me too!)
The old viewers were happy that there were more people in the streamer's room, but they were also somewhat worried.
It was like watching their own child grow up and meet lots of people, without knowing whether any of them were bad.
All they could do was continue watching the livestream room and see whether anyone had come specifically to smear the streamer.
If there were, they would boycott those people without even needing the streamer to say a word!
(Streamer, you're famous!)
"Famous?"
Seeing the comments from those new viewers, Lin Xuan was even more stunned.
Then, one viewer explained.
It turned out that so many newcomers had entered Lin Xuan's livestream room because the Xia Country Endangered Animal Research Institute had promoted him on its official blog account and even left his livestream room ID.
That was why so many new viewers had come to watch his stream.
Lin Xuan was deeply grateful for what the Xia Country Endangered Animal Research Institute had done.
After all, the more followers his livestream room had, the more attention points he could earn, which he could then use to exchange for other things.
"So that's what happened. Then I really need to thank the Xia Country Endangered Animal Research Institute properly."
"And thank you all for watching my livestream. If you're interested, please give me a follow. I'll often stream little animals too."
(I already clicked it once. Does the streamer want me to click it again?)
(Haha, clicking it again means unsubscribing.)
Now that the Panda Cub's droppings had been cleaned up, Lin Xuan carefully placed it in the incubator, then took the chance to send Su Yao a message of thanks on WeChat.
"Comrade Lin Xuan, you disregarded your own safety to rescue the Giant Panda family, and now you're caring for the Panda Cub. We should be the ones thanking you. Without you, the consequences for that Giant Panda family would have been unthinkable."
"What we've done is nothing worth mentioning."
(If possible, we're also working to secure approval for you. Once the documents come through, your livestream room can be broadcast globally!)
A global livestream?
Seeing that message, Lin Xuan would have been lying if he said he was not excited.
As he had said before, the more people followed him, the more attention points he could obtain.
And the more attention points he had, the better things he could exchange for.
However, regarding what Su Yao had mentioned, they still had to wait for the decision from above. Only once it was approved and the documents were issued could the global livestream begin.
"Mr. Su, thank you for your help."
"No need, no need. If your livestream room can help people across the country love animals and reduce the number of strays, that would be a good thing for us too."
"Comrade Lin Xuan, I imagine you know something about stray animals as well."
"Yes, a little. But Mr. Su, hearing you say that makes me feel like I'm under a lot of pressure."
"Haha, Comrade Lin Xuan, don't put yourself under pressure. If you run into any difficulties, you can come to me. If I can help, I definitely will."
Looking at that message, Lin Xuan was somewhat surprised. Did Su Yao mean that as long as he did not do anything illegal, he had a very powerful backer behind him?
For a moment, Lin Xuan did not know how he could thank Su Yao.
"Mr. Su, if there's a chance in the future, let's meet up."
"Alright, Comrade Lin Xuan. If I have the time, I'll come over personally."
"Mr. Su, how could I let you do that? Just let me know when you have time, and I'll come to you."
"Haha, we'll talk about it then."
After chatting with Su Yao, Lin Xuan looked at the Panda Cub already sleeping in the incubator, got up, and walked over to Panda Mother.
Although he was caring for one Panda Cub, he still needed to check on the situation over there. He needed to see whether Panda Mother had enough milk to feed the other two cubs. If not, he would have a lot to do.
He would also have to consider preparing some nutritious food for Panda Mother to make sure her milk supply was sufficient.
When he arrived beside Panda Mother, she raised her head upon seeing him and let out a Squeak Squeak at Lin Xuan.
"I'm helping you take care of one of your children. I came to check on your other two."
Panda Mother nodded, then raised one of her legs and exposed the cubs beneath her belly.
(Damn, no way. Is this Panda Mother seriously that smart?)
Naturally, some of the new viewers had never seen anything like this before. They immediately flooded the chat with astonished comments.
The old viewers, however, responded to their comments with: "Basic stuff, don't make a fuss."
(If you missed it, I suggest watching the stream replay. After you finish it, you'll be even more surprised.)
(Oh, there are stream replays too? I'm going to watch right now!)
(Me too, I'm going to take a look first!)
