Chapter 631: Chapter 272 Phoenix Rising from the Ashes_3
Pei Shuyu’s status as the platform’s top sister was already so stable that it couldn’t get any more stable, with the new votes just building another peak on top of the pinnacle.
The platform’s Brother Yi, Xingyu’s Red Bull, scored nearly 120 million RMB in total votes throughout the entire gala, and Su Huai knew very well how much of that was from the guild’s official botting and Red Bull’s alternate accounts.
But this 120 million total votes was just one-tenth of Pei Shuyu’s.
No one across the entire internet had ever seen such an exaggerated number of votes before. This year YY had a yearly competition where over the course of half a month, 200 million votes were accumulated, but that was split across more than 20 hosts.
The most interesting thing was that the first place wasn’t Tianyou nor A Zhe, but Lan Xiaotian who had used guild votes to reach 40 million before securing it.
That well-known but anonymous host ended up with a debt of 26.25 million, and never managed to repay it before their downfall.
And Pei Shuyu?
The money that Su Huai spent didn’t need to be returned to her, the guild barely contributed, and only a few hundred thousand were spent by alternate accounts to set the rhythm.
The remaining various big brothers and hosts contributed 20 million RMB, and the vast player base contributed 40 million votes.
A portion of the votes from small players was free, which translated into a real income of about 20 million when converted.
That’s the benefit of fame, the collective strength after successfully diverting traffic, that’s the base Su Huai wanted to build for her.
Looking at the screen where foul language had just been sent out and was immediately banned by the admins, along with the queued-up waterfall of "Yuji the most beautiful, the number one across the whole network" comments, Su Huai felt a strong sense of satisfaction.
He knew what it was, the joy of manipulating the fate of others.
Su Huai didn’t just play with traffic to make money. Of course, making money is very important, but the sense of achievement that comes with enabling someone to soar to the heavens with a flick of the wrist mattered more than simply making money.
In fact, those who started with category five content also didn’t grow slowly, and it was much more worry-free than this.
But even if he had to do it all over a hundred times, Su Huai would still choose to mix in with the beauties and call the shots.
Ordinary people can’t understand this thrill, but one can imagine: a group of beauties, each a well-known online celebrity with millions of fans, swarming around you as soon as you go live, chirping and tweeting calling you godfather...
Joy indeed~~~
Turning his head and glancing at Circle, Su Huai thought: The next one is her. I wonder if seeing this scene has sparked enough fighting spirit in her.
If you can’t guess, just ask.
Su Huai decisively messaged her: "How does it feel? What do you think?"
"Ah?!"
Circle looked up, her eyes clear yet conflicted, "Feeling? I feel... I want to get one too, is that okay?"
Shit!
Su Huai covered his face with his right hand and waved his left hand dismissively, completely losing the desire to deal with her.
Alright then, being a godfather isn’t something you can just become if you want, no matter how much skill and tricks you have, you also need to choose the right person.
But there was some good news— the money Circle donated to Pei Shuyu showed up in the system wallet.
This meant that Su Huai’s plan to create a faux tycoon was entirely feasible, with no loss no matter how much he spent.
And if the system could be upgraded later to increase the number of targeted donations, then he could really take off.
In the center of the stage, the last musical note faded away.
Pei Shuyu, slightly out of breath, still stood in the very center, striking the ending pose.
Her brilliantly sparkling eyes shone with radiant fire under the spotlight, and suddenly she flashed a proud, confident smile and declared loudly with a high-raised right hand—
"I don’t care who you came to see, but in my domain, you can only be conquered by me!"
"Now, with your cheers, let the entire platform know, who am I?!"
"Louder, I can’t hear you!"
No one could speak up in her live stream, so that surging emotion all turned into gifts and bullet comments, nearly crashing the entire platform.
And she just laughed proudly, not even bothering to look back at the hard-working backup dancers. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
In the last moment before the competition ended, after sharing the stage with Tara and absorbing the nourishment, she finally emerged in the best way Su Huai envisioned, breaking out of her cocoon to become a butterfly, reborn from fire as a phoenix.

Haha, just as I was venting yesterday, there was a global crash, but it doesn’t affect me continuing to watch legs...
