As the cameraman made an OK gesture, Lin Feng spoke to the camera:
"Hello, everyone. I'm Lin Feng. We meet again."
After saying that, Lin Feng looked at Chen Hang beside him and said:
"This is Chen Hang, a reporter from the I Love Invention production team. He's here because we're also filming material for I Love Invention at the same time."
"Damn! It's going to be on I Love Invention again? Lin Feng is incredible."
"Amazing. He invented two things, and both ended up on I Love Invention. That must be pretty rare even for I Love Invention."
"I just wonder how this Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle performs in actual combat. I'm really looking forward to it."
"Damn, did you guys notice that gorgeous woman when the camera moved? She's so pretty."
"You're right. I didn't expect Lin Feng to hire a beautiful model."...
The Douyu livestream was a chaotic mess at the moment. Since notifications had been posted early on various video app platforms and Weibo, the number of viewers was exceptionally high, reaching more than 300,000!
This result would have been nothing special in his previous life, but in this era, when Douyu had not even become independent and was merely part of AcFun, it was an astonishing achievement.
After noticing the unusual activity in the livestream room and finding nothing wrong, the platform operators immediately gave it even greater advertising support.
With this round of free promotion, the livestream room's viewer count began to soar, rapidly climbing from 300,000 toward 400,000 and even 500,000.
At the same time, over in Hangzhou, Bilibili, which had only four people in total, also noticed that Bilibili's traffic had suddenly dropped by nearly 30 percent within a dozen minutes.
Faced with this situation, Xu Yi, the highly nervous head of Bilibili, hurriedly gathered everyone to investigate the cause, wanting to know what exactly had gone wrong.
It did not take long for them to discover that everyone had gone to AcFun's broadcast livestream room to watch Lin Feng test the Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle!
Faced with this result, Xu Yi, Bilibili's head, was greatly shocked. He had not expected Lin Feng to be the reason Bilibili's traffic had plummeted by nearly 30 percent in half an hour.
Witnessing this, Xu Yi realized just how enormous Lin Feng's influence on Bilibili was, while also feeling a deep sense of crisis.
One person had actually drawn away nearly 30 percent of Bilibili's traffic. If Lin Feng abandoned Bilibili and went directly to AcFun, wouldn't Bilibili suffer a devastating blow?
The more Xu Yi thought about it, the more alarmed he became, and the more frightened he felt afterward. So, he decided he had to do something. He could not allow such an outcome to happen.
On the other side, Lin Feng raised the Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle in his hand and said with a smile:
"What I'm holding is the Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle. Its grip is located toward the rear-middle section, and as you can see, there is an electromagnetic control system above the rear.
It has 36 joules of kinetic energy. Its actual power is enough to leave a target bruised and battered within fifteen meters, and its power increases as the distance shortens.
As for its exact power, we'll let the video show everyone. I'll post more detailed specifications in the comments later. Next, let's conduct a live test."
After he finished speaking, an employee placed two watermelons on a low table fifteen meters away.
At five-meter intervals, iron pipes lay horizontally on the ground as markers, showing everyone the distance.
The camera then slowly lowered to the measuring tape, letting everyone know that the current distance from the starting point was exactly fifteen meters.
"The first test target is watermelons. To avoid missing, we've directly installed a standard military laser sight."
After saying that, Lin Feng selected the highest setting under the camera, aimed the red laser at the watermelon, and pulled the trigger before hundreds of thousands of livestream viewers.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The coin bullets shot out at extreme speed.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
As the watermelons burst apart and fragments of watermelon flew everywhere, the comments section immediately exploded.
"Amazing! It actually blew up the watermelons from that far away!"
"Awesome! Lin Feng is awesome!"
"Amazing. I thought fifteen meters wasn't far, but I didn't expect it to be this far. It can blow up watermelons from such a distance!"...
At that moment, the hundreds of thousands of fans in the livestream room were all extremely excited, stunned by the Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle's formidable power.
Then Lin Feng's voice followed:
"Besides its high speed, our electromagnetic rifle actually has another advantage: its recoil is incredibly low. How low? Low enough that even a child can hold it steady with ease!
You should know that a traditional rifle gets its energy from an explosive gunpowder charge. Fifty percent of the total energy becomes heat, while 25 percent becomes kinetic energy in the gas.
In other words, the bullet ultimately receives only one-quarter of the total energy produced by the gunpowder explosion.
So, with the same bullet kinetic energy, an electromagnetic rifle has one-quarter the recoil of a traditional rifle.
Or, with the same recoil, an electromagnetic rifle is four times as powerful as a traditional rifle!"
"Wow!"
"So that's why. I was wondering why Lin Feng's hand had been so steady. Turns out the recoil is just too low."
"Amazing. I just wonder how high its maximum rate of fire is."
Amid the livestream's exclamations, an employee placed bottles of beer on the table.
"Next, we'll test shooting Liquan beer from fifteen meters away. But to prove what I said about the ultra-low recoil, let's invite a special guest."
As Lin Feng spoke, the camera turned toward Qu Qiongying at the side.
Seeing this, Qu Qiongying showed a surprised expression, as though she had not expected to go directly from spectator to star.
However, Qu Qiongying was worthy of holding the position of marketing director. In just one breath, she calmed her surprised expression, then walked over with a gentle smile and greeted everyone.
"Hello, everyone. I'm Qu Qiongying."
Qu Qiongying was not wearing earrings today. She wore a grayish-white short-sleeved silk top with a U-neck design and a denim miniskirt, which highlighted her long, smooth legs in a heart-stirring way.
"Holy crap, a long-legged beauty! I'm drooling!"
"So cute! She's unbelievably cute!"
"Yeah, she's a natural beauty, not the Photoshopped kind. This is awesome!"
"Oh no, I think I'm falling in love!"
"Damn it, just thinking about her being with Lin Feng makes me... Ah, I'm coughing blood!"
"She's pretty good-looking. I wonder how much Lin Feng paid her to be a model."
"She still looks this good up close. Lin Feng is one lucky guy. Damn it."...
Faced with Qu Qiongying's greeting, the AcFun broadcast livestream viewers and Bilibili viewers, 95 percent of whom were shut-in men, all became excited.
Dense barrages of comments also flooded the livestream room, temporarily affecting everyone's ability to watch normally.
It was clear that beautiful women had quite an effect. No wonder Bilibili's dance section would become its own separate category a few years later and rank so highly.
Those cute girls in white stockings were simply too devastating to shut-in men. They were practically super-lethal anti-otaku weapons.
