Chapter 196 - Milking Screentime



Chapter 196: Milking Screentime





Both male celebrities were basketball enthusiasts as well.


Their interactions with the audience were also related to basketball.


A basketball net was placed in the middle of the stage, where the hosts and the four guests approached it.


“Everyone open your Tao Bao app and go to the 11/11 event page, the event depends if these four can land their shots. Each person will score once, so there will be quizzes in total. If you can guess them right, you’ll win a large basketball gift package.”


The host outlined the rules for the trivia, then told the four to send out their first player.


“I’ll go first.”


A guy standing next to Jay Chou volunteered and scored the first shot, causing a round of applause.


Next up was Jay Chou, who picked a further distance, which entered too.


The Chinese god hand and the NBA player both picked a spot outside the three-point line and landed their shots as well.


The interaction was simple, but because they were celebrities, it was much more interesting to watch.


“It’s getting harder.”


The interaction obviously wouldn’t end so quickly. The host leads the four celebrities to a further distance, about half-court, then stopped, saying with a big smile. “Next will be an extra-large prize, and can be quizzed based on it; if these two basketball players land their shots, one by one. Everyone refresh your minds, you should see four answers. The choices are: both score, nobody scores, one person scores, and the second doesn’t. You can begin selecting now, but remember there are only 30 seconds!”


In these 30 seconds, the host allowed the celebrities to try-scoring. They both hit the backboard, but none of them landed. It was difficult indeed.


“Alright, the voting has ended. You two, who wants to go first?” The host asked.


“I’ll go.”


China’s god hand hit the backboard. It landed!


This time, the applause was much louder and their screams were seemingly endless.


It was the NBA player’s turn. He curved it, very accurately as well, but once the ball fell towards the backboard, it bounced off the rim and back out again. It bounced with great force and flew into the audience, and with scary coincidence landed in Meng Fan’s hands.


“Did it hit you?”


The host asked worriedly. Seeing he was okay, he smiled. “You can keep it as a souvenir.”


Before he even finished speaking, Meng Fan had tossed the ball towards them in a shooting motion.


Whoosh!


It landed in the net without touching the rim!


The audience was shocked.


The program director was fast to respond and managed to record the whole process for the stream.


The viewers were dumbstruck as well. What the hell was this?!


It must be staged right?


He was at least an entire basketball court away!


How did he score it?


Is there a master hidden among us?


Huh? Why does this guy look so familiar?!


“Badass, badass! When I saw the basketball land in the iron brother’s hands, I knew something was going to happen. Iron bro doesn’t disappoint and scored it right away hahaha do you see how terrifying his god hands are?!”


All the students watching from the art academy also recognized Meng Fan. Who didn’t know of Meng Fan’s incredible shooting skills? He could score from anywhere during the university’s basketball tournament!


“666! Meng fatty!”


“Hey, let me tell you about the world record holder for arcade basketball!”


“Stirring up sh*t are you?! Meng host is gonna start sh*t again!”


“Hahaha the laughing frenzy you guys hoped for didn’t happen, but the audience is dumbfounded once again!”


“11/11 gala’s highlight has to be of Meng host!”


Several live comments related to Meng Fan suddenly appeared on all three TV channel’s streaming platforms. It seems the online viewers were shocked as well.


“Wasn’t this that sand artist from before? How is he also a world record holder?”


“Can we calm down? Can you explain this before blowing him up?!”


At the live venue, Meng Fan was surprised by his own shot as well. Although it didn’t make the four celebrities on stage embarrassed, after all, none of them relied on this to make money, but he’d created a difficult situation for the host. “You f*cking completely interrupted my hosting procedure, how can I continue like this?”


“Huh?”


The host heard the message from the director and paused for a moment. He then looked closely at Meng Fan, and gathered his words. Smiling, he said, “I guess everyone recognizes this godly shooter was the sand artist from the “fairy” performance, Meng Fan! Actually, Meng Fan has another identity that you guys might not know of. He’s also the world record holder for arcade basketball! Thank you for showing us such a great shot!”


Even without the last sentence as affirmation, the gala would still go on.


There was no way they were going to invite Meng Fan to come on stage. This was a stream after all, and had a time limit. The schedule was already set. Besides, what was Meng Fan going to do on stage? Interview him or let him keep shooting? It was okay if he could score, but what if he missed? It was better to digest the amazing shot as the end of the celebrity interaction.


How perfect was that? It also left room for suspense and magic.


Maybe, or quite possibly, the audience probably thought this was part of the organizers’ plan.


What a beautiful misunderstanding!


Meng Fan’s unintentional riot operation took at least ten seconds of screentime. The program director evidently recorded it.


Of course, this kind of action could only be achieved through professional programming techniques and operations.


If he didn’t catch this kind of action on film, he would be severely scolded by the main director and the audience.


Meng Fan saw the experience increase for the [Famous Streamer] task and was suddenly overwhelmed with joy.


What was even better was that after this interaction, Jay Chou who remained on stage to perform, kept giving him curious looks, giving the director another opportunity to show Meng Fan on screen again!


Would he be able to ask him for another cup of milk tea? It should be okay… Right?


“Ding!”


Immediately, another judgment procedure appeared in his mind for [Concert Killer]. Evidently, that shot made an impact on the event. The decided lethality score wasn’t too low but was an interesting number. 66!


The system felt his operation had been 666 as well!


The decision this time occurred about an hour after the event happened.


In a moment, Meng Fan checked the [Famous Streamer] information and calculated it again. He’d gained over 10 million viewers!


These big events were the greatest!


His total view count was at 62 million!


But Meng Fan also discovered something that made him uncomfortable. After the program director cut to the camera filming him, the number of viewers did not go up!


He’d discovered this problem before scoring the shot, but he wasn’t sure. Then he opened his live stream aid to replay the stream to confirm it had caught him on camera during Jay Chou’s performance. But his viewer count did not grow!


Basically, having a camera cut to him was meaningless. He had to “perform” on stream in order to gain more viewers.


After confirming, he was a bit remorseful but felt it was fair.


Since he couldn’t milk anymore screen time, Meng Fan returned backstage.


It was almost 11/11, and he had a lot of stuff he wanted to buy.


He didn’t have time because of the rehearsal, but now it seems laxer, and he had to reward himself by spending some money.


In a good mood, Meng decided to distribute some wealth and helped several people buy out their shopping carts.
