Thirty Thousand Fan Cards!

033. Thirty Thousand Fan Badges!

Dukes, Kings, Emperors, and Counts, a large number of wealthy patrons sent in rewards.

This pushed Jiang Siming's popularity back over 10 million!

At this moment, Jiang Siming's stream still had over 2 million viewers.

This was the viewership that Dumb Sister and Tuan Tuan had attracted by gifting Emperor statuses before, bringing in over 3 million online viewers at the time.

He thought these people, who were just there to join the fun and grab treasure chests, would have already left. He didn't expect over 2 million to still be here.

Tuan Tuan and Dumb Sister could only occasionally reach this number of online viewers.

Yet Jiang Siming had done it in just one day.

After successfully winning a match, Jiang Siming was quite satisfied.

After killing Xiao Hai, a golden fragment appeared in his inventory.

And this fragment was the Audi RS7 that Jiang Siming had been wanting!

However, since he was live-streaming, Jiang Siming could only deal with it after the stream ended.

With a 35-kill victory, Jiang Siming's score shot up to 2300. He gained 500 points in one match, which was terrifying.

He didn't stop, and Jiang Siming re-entered the game.

Jiang Siming played from 3 PM in the afternoon until 3 AM in the morning.

He streamed for a full twelve hours!

In those twelve hours, Jiang Siming won a total of 18 matches!

He won a match roughly every three games.

Sometimes, when he didn't get enough kills, Jiang Siming would directly self-destruct and start over. Otherwise, his win rate would have been even more terrifying!

Among them, he had 11 matches with over 30 kills and 7 matches with over 20 kills!

Jiang Siming's score had already risen to a staggering 4500 points!

On the Asia Server leaderboard, Jiang Siming had claimed the top spot!

Jiang Siming had surpassed Wei Shen in second place and Little Lion in third place, reaching number one on the Asia Server!

He accomplished this feat in just twelve hours.

At the moment he reached the top, Jiang Siming's stream viewership reached its peak, a massive 6 million+ viewers! His popularity soared to over 35 million+!

These numbers were almost comparable to the top streamers on Shark, Da Mahou and PDD.

Six million viewers flocked to Jiang Siming's stream, discussing the miracle he had achieved.

Shark's executive Sun Youcai was beaming. The PUBG section of Shark hadn't seen such a breakthrough in a long time!

He tallied up the gifts viewers had sent that day.

The stream level had now reached level 65. To reach the next level...

The stream had already generated 26,850 fan badges, meaning twenty-six thousand users had gifted at least seven yuan.

The live-streaming industry isn't what it used to be. Most viewers nowadays are quite rational and don't blindly send gifts.

Unless the stream's content truly satisfies the audience.

Today, Jiang Siming's stream performance had captivated a large number of viewers, resulting in nearly thirty thousand fan badges.

Currently, popularity on Shark's streams can be boosted by wealthy patrons' gifts, but fan badges cannot be faked. This is the most accurate indicator of a streamer's real popularity, and it's almost impossible to falsify unless you're insane, constantly stealing other people's IDs to register accounts, and then topping up seven yuan for each account to get a badge.

Not only is the cost and effort immense, but it's also thankless because fan badges disappear if you stop gifting for a period.

This completely eliminates the possibility of faking fan badge growth.

Shark's highest record for fan badge growth was on the day PDD returned to streaming, when they gained five hundred thousand badges in one day.

But that was mostly due to PDD's immense accumulated popularity, plus his incredibly generous lottery giveaways and his connections with a large number of wealthy patrons who came to support him.

However, Jiang Siming hadn't done anything special, hadn't held any giveaways, and as a small newcomer, he didn't have any wealthy friends.

Yet, he managed to gain nearly thirty thousand fan cards in a single day, leaving the higher-ups at Shark astonished.

"Alright, the mission is completed ahead of schedule, and I should get some sleep. I've been playing all day and I'm a bit tired," Jiang Siming said, stretching his arms.

The audience was naturally reluctant to see him go.

"No way, the viewership is so high right now, keep streaming!"

"Ming God clearly has no streaming experience. This is the peak of your popularity, keep going!"

"Play two more matches. I just arrived not long ago and haven't seen any of the 'violent massacres' they talked about."

"Ming God, please bring Dumb Sister and Tuan Tuan along. They've been thinking about you!"

"Yeah, Dumb Sister keeps getting eliminated right after landing, she's almost depressed."

Seeing the viewers' messages asking him to stay, Jiang Siming wasn't an unreasonable streamer.

As it happened, he had just maxed out the fragments for [Guitar Mastery] in the previous few games, and combined with his existing [Singing Talent], Jiang Siming planned to treat everyone to a song as his final act for the day.

"I've been playing games for way too long today, my head is a bit dizzy now, so I won't play any more. I'll go borrow a guitar from my roommate and sing a song for you all. What do you think?"

He didn't have a guitar, but Wang Xinyi did, and he planned to borrow it.

In fact, Jiang Siming also wanted to test out his two newly acquired skills, as he had never used them before.

"Ming God can play guitar too?"

"Whoa, does he have to be this talented? How are we supposed to live?"

"Agreed, agreed! Ming's voice is so good, his singing must be amazing too!"

"You can play guitar? It's not just beginner level, is it? Don't embarrass yourself."

"I'm going to go notify the Old Woman, she'll definitely be happy to come watch!"

Hearing that most of the audience agreed, Jiang Siming got up and temporarily left the stream.

He went to Wang Xinyi's room; the light was still on.

Jiang Siming knocked on the door.

"Xinyi, are you asleep yet?"

"Senior Brother, is something wrong this late?" Wang Xinyi was a little surprised and nervous, wondering why Jiang Siming was looking for her so late.

"Oh, I'm streaming and wanted to borrow your guitar for a bit, is that okay? Don't worry, I'll play very quietly."

Jiang Siming had already told Wang Xinyi about his streaming.

After a moment, the door opened.

Wang Xinyi, wearing cartoon pajamas, came out holding a guitar and handed it to Jiang Siming.

"Senior Brother, you can play guitar too?"

Jiang Siming took the guitar, smiled, and said, "A little. I plan to sing a song before logging off. Don't worry, I'll be done quickly."

"Can I come listen? Don't worry, I'll be nearby and won't make any noise at all." Wang Xinyi was very curious about Jiang Siming's guitar skills.

"Sure, if you don't find it boring, come along," Jiang Siming readily agreed.

He returned to his room, with Wang Xinyi following behind, looking around curiously.

Seeing Jiang Siming sit down in front of the camera, Wang Xinyi stood by the doorway, keeping her distance, watching silently with curiosity.

Jiang Siming, now seated, told the stream, "Thanks for waiting," and adjusted the microphone closer.

The camera also focused on his hands and the guitar.

By this time, Dumb Sister and Tuan Tuan were already watching the stream. If Brother Ming was going to sing, how could they miss it!
