Chapter 13: Really Became Famous This Time!
"Brother Dao has arrived! All evil spirits retreat! Speak of life and death! Who dares to compete!"
Li Yidao's entrance ignited a frenzy of output from a complete nut-head fan!
He spammed in the chat over and over again.
"What the hell! Who is this crazy guy? But Brother Dao is truly amazing, a prophetic legend!"
"Yeah, he was the prophet! Someone get him killed tonight!"
"Hehe, who's going to do it? Brother Dao will give you a follow and see who gets killed!"
"Brother Dao, come out and tell us about your experience of killing someone!"
"Yeah, Brother Dao, come out and tell us how you knew Brother Kuang was going to be killed!"
...
As Li Yidao entered the live stream, the entire room was talking about him.
There was nothing he could do. He was really too popular at this moment!
"F*ck! I just realized something! Brother Dao only followed three people!"
"What is it? Only three people?" The curious netizens had already opened Brother Dao's homepage and started to check.
As expected!
Enchanting Little Witch.
Your Little Bunny.
And the last one, Brother Kuang!
"F*ck! Brother Dao really only followed three people, and then all three of them... Are they all dead?"
"Sh*t, I'm outta here! Scared the hell out of me!"
"Brother Dao, please don't follow me! Spare me, your humble servant!"
"D*mn it! Was it really that exaggerated? Followed three people, and the three of them are killed?"
"Boohoo, I'm also begging Brother Dao not to follow me. I'm scared. I'm scared."
"Is this even human? A pure god! Brother Dao is really badass!"
"Upstairs, aren't you afraid that Brother Dao will follow you?"
"Brother Dao, don't take it seriously. I'm just bullsh*ting! Just treat it as a fart!"
...
Li Yidao didn't say a word throughout, but all the comments revolved around him.
And more and more people entered his profile and clicked the follow button in the live stream chat.
At the same time, they left humble comments under Li Yidao's latest video, begging for life.
There were already over 10,000 comments!
However, the vibe of the comments seemed a bit off.
"What the f*ck! It's too terrifying!"
"I'm totally shocked, scared the hell out of me!"
"I've followed, boss, please don't follow back!"
"follow and run away!"
"That's right! Just follow and then quickly leave!"
Almost all of them left a footprint in a hurry and fled!
It seemed that after all three of the people Brother Dao followed had died. His profile had become a death zone!
...
With the escalation of Brother Kuang's incident, the number of followers continued to increase!
And it was growing at a geometric rate!
Millions!
At this point, Li Yidao's number of followers had already exceeded 800,000!
And the growth trend was still ongoing.
If it continued like this, tomorrow his followers would definitely surpass the one million mark!
One million followers would make him a bona fide top live streamer!
If he could do a live stream to sell products now, he would make a fortune!
But...
What could he sell?
Joss paper? Ingots? Incense? Or...
Anyway...
Li Yidao sadly realized that he didn't seem to have anything to sell!
In fact, there were reasons why Li Yidao's fans had increased so drastically!
It was definitely related to Brother Kuang. As long as his fans were online when the accident happened, they would follow Li Yidao.
After all, it was too magical!
It wouldn't be right if they didn't follow!
Li Yidao, who paid attention to detail, discovered several fans that left him speechless.
It turned out that even some local police public accounts were following him!
Not only that, but they also left comments.
"I have followed and will continue to follow."
"I have followed. No need to follow back. Remember to be a law-abiding citizen."
"I have followed. Please come and file a case, boss."
Looking at the comments from these local police public accounts, he could only wear a face of disbelief!
What on earth was happening?
How did he end up being treated like an irredeemable villain?
And not only that, even the emergency hotline 911 started following him.
"I have followed. If you have any emergencies, please dial 911, whether it's for yourself or others."
Li Yidao was truly speechless!
Were all these official public accounts so humorous?
With the following of these official public accounts, the netizens who saw these comments couldn't help but burst into laughter!
"Haha, the police are here. Hurry up and use your power to subdue this demon!"
"D*mn it! Brother Dao, are you really creating your own business?"
"Hey, don't spread rumors. That can lead to trouble! Shame on you!"
"Haha, I can't believe my eyes! Brother Dao, they are telling you to file a case! I can't stop laughing!"
"Everyone, let's not be like this. Science is always the truth. Don't be superstitious! Brother Dao, please don't follow me."
"Hey, the guy upstairs, I believe you're possessed!"
"I quietly clicked the follow button and quietly left. I hope Brother Dao won't notice me."
...
All in all, Li Yidao was really famous now, not only on the platform but also on various forums!
He had become a sensation!
With hundreds of thousands of fans right now, or even a million fans tomorrow, it would be many times more than some ordinary Internet celebrities!
After all, many internet celebrities had fans who were merely passive followers!
They didn't comment, like, or even visit the platform.
But what about Li Yidao?
He was different!
Just look at his comments section!
They were all living people!
How long had it been since Li Yidao's fans had grown?
One day?
Two days?
It could only be described as amazing!
At this moment, the official operations department of the platform naturally noticed the unusual activity on Li Yidao's account!
This was definitely a hit!
Otherwise, how could he gain so many fans so quickly?!
When a hit emerged, with good platform promotion, it could generate a substantial increase in traffic!
Therefore, all of Li Yidao's information was now on the desk of Wang Shengqiang, the general manager of the operations department!
In front of him was a beautiful woman with a graceful figure. She was about 27 or 28 years old.
This person was Wang Shengqiang's secretary.
"Manager, I've done a detailed investigation. The main reason why this 'Brother Yidao Funeral Shop' is so popular is that the three people he followed all had accidents."
"Not only that, before these three streamers had accidents, he followed them and promoted his shop."
"So now everyone calls him Prophet Dao."
"Hmm? Is it that mysterious? Should we investigate the reason behind it?"
"It's not a publicity stunt... or a coincidence?"
"No, manager. There's no way to stage something like this, and it's too coincidental for three streamers to have accidents."
"And... I checked his comments. It seems like he really knows the results in advance."
"Hehe, Xiaowen, you're still too inexperienced. How is that even possible? Do you believe he's a prophet if he says so?"
"He definitely has some undisclosed sources of information and a unique operations team helping him."
"This kind of streamer will attract the attention of guilds once his fan base grows."
"Let me think. This one's method is indeed somewhat novel."
"Let's pay more attention. If his number of followers exceeds three million and active fans surpass two million, let's offer him a basic contract to test him."
Clearly, Wang Shengqiang was not very concerned about this matter.
He still didn't believe that Li Yidao could truly predict life and death.
So he didn't pay too much attention to it.
"By the way, how's Brother Long, the big eater? How many fans does he have now?"
The secretary quickly scanned through the documents in her hand and replied, "He's got nine million fans. He's planning a super burger event soon, and he's likely to hit the ten million mark."
"Hmm... With ten million fans, the platform can attract even more traffic. We should schedule a contract renegotiation with him. A streamer with ten million fans deserves a B-level contract."
"Got it, manager." She responded promptly. However, after hesitating for a moment, she timidly asked, "Manager, what about Brother Dao? Shouldn't we..."
Wang Shengqiang waved his hand impatiently. "I've already told you to pay attention to him first. Let's talk about it when his fans exceed five million. He's just a funeral shop owner. I don't know what he can sell even if he does a live stream."
"But... Manager, I have a feeling that this guy is mysterious and not as simple as it seems. Besides, he hasn't signed with any guild or platform yet. We..."
"That's enough. He's just someone riding the wave of popularity. In this day and age, you're still falling for superstitions. Just do as I said and monitor him for now."
Wang Shengqiang's tone was already tinged with impatience.
"Um, alright, I understand, manager."
"Good, carry out my instructions. Let me know if there's any news about Brother Long's event tomorrow. I'll keep an eye on it."
"Understood. I'll take care of it."
