My System Forces Me to Live off Women

Chapter 492 - 330: Meeting and He Yimeng’s Livestream (2)

The crowd burst into good-natured laughter, and Li Peifeng just chuckled, "I can’t do it. If I said the first sentence, President Chen would kick me out."

Chen Yong raised an eyebrow and said, "What are you going to say?"

"From now on, all authors’ manuscript royalties will increase by another ten percent."

"Oh~ good!"

"Clap clap clap~"

The people around Li Peifeng immediately started clapping enthusiastically, and Chen Yong wasn’t angry. He smiled, waved his hand, and left.

After the joke, the meeting officially began, and most of the content was rather unimportant things, like what achievements Endpoint had this year, thanking all authors for their hard work, and wishing for more achievements next year, and so on.

The half-hour meeting ended, and finally, Chen Yong kept Li Peifeng to talk separately.

Li thought he would bring up the speech from the party, but Chen Yong’s first topic was actually the novel "Sword and Law," saying he was a loyal reader and expressing admiration, even asking about the plot direction.

Li Peifeng modestly said a few words, then simply explained. After that, Chen Yong talked about the speech, gave some taboos and suggestions, encouraged him to focus on writing, and then the private conversation ended.

In the afternoon, Li Peifeng went back to his room to focus on writing. By the evening, he intended to have a quick bite before continuing, but during the meeting, he met some well-known online writers. They exchanged WeChat contacts, and now he received messages inviting him to go out for dinner, chat, and exchange writing experiences.

The invitation was warm and polite, so Li found it hard to refuse. After considering it, he agreed.

...

"Phew~ Those rookies, trying to get me drunk?!"

It wasn’t until ten o’clock at night that Li Peifeng returned to his hotel room with a faint smell of alcohol on him. After a quick wash, he glanced at his phone and decided not to sit in front of the computer to write, but instead lay on the bed, opened Douyin, and entered the homepage of the username "True Heart Psychology Mengmeng."

This Douyin account belonged to He Yimeng. As planned, it featured videos about psychology, philosophy, literature, and emotional counseling.

A month had passed since the official operation began. With promotions from Wu Wenyue, along with He Yimeng’s own talent and appearance, she had already reached six hundred thousand followers.

Previously, Trinity Studio had a meeting and decided that with He Yimeng’s current follower count and engagement, it was time for live streaming to generate revenue and further stimulate follower growth. He Yimeng and the Trinity team were ready for this.

Today was He Yimeng’s first live stream, starting at half-past eight and ending at eleven.

The content was that He Yimeng would continue discussing philosophy, literature, and emotional topics on camera and, as a psychological counselor, would connect with viewers or other streamers for consultation or conversation.

Li Peifeng heard about this during a phone call with her yesterday, and naturally, he had to show support, whether as the boss of Trinity Studio or as a friend’s concern, it was the right thing to do.

"What a pity I’m over an hour late, I wonder if her streaming is going smoothly."

Li Peifeng entered the live stream page, first checking the popularity and the number of online viewers at the top of the screen. Seeing "369k likes this session" and "1,365 online viewers," he smiled slightly.

Not bad, quite high!

Many don’t understand live streaming trends, assuming the number of a blogger’s followers significantly affects their live viewer count, but it’s not really like that.

Situations where accounts with hundreds of thousands or even a million followers only have a dozen viewers for a live stream are quite common.

That’s because if a blogger has never live streamed before, their followers are primarily video followers, interested in your videos but not particularly in your live streams.

In short, followers obtained through short videos have a low conversion rate. Only by starting streaming, offering unique live content, and persistently streaming over the long term can the number of live viewers gradually increase.

For He Yimeng’s first stream, she wasn’t a game streamer or a music/dance streamer, yet had over a thousand online viewers, which could be considered a great start.

"Perhaps... but what I’m more interested in is your view on this matter?"

At this moment, He Yimeng was connected to a male viewer who didn’t show his face, mainly listening to him share his recent life and relationship troubles in a hoarse, low voice. He Yimeng listened and guided him occasionally, seemingly providing an online version of psychological consultation.

On screen, He Yimeng wasn’t wearing earrings or other accessories, only showing her upper body. She was dressed in a black spaghetti strap dress that was cut appropriately, accentuating her slender figure. It contrasted sharply with her grayish-white long hair and fair, delicate collarbones, while the rest of her was covered elegantly, without any hint of vulgarity.

With a subtly cold yet elegant face, she wore light makeup and minimal beauty filters, focusing on the camera, listening to the other person’s words, and responding with a smile, quoting Slavoj Zizek and employing psychoanalysis to help the male viewer overcome psychological barriers.

But it didn’t have much effect, as the male viewer seemed to become agitated and started to attack He Yimeng, "Talking with you for twenty minutes just made me feel worse. Are you really a psychological counselor? You even dare talk about philosophy, looking so petty bourgeois with your style, you should self-reflect!"
