Chapter 181 Reverse the Situation
Even a cursory glance at the trending topics, the damning evidence stacked against the streamers, and the platforms they represented, made it abundantly clear that this was a coordinated attack.
But schadenfreude was a powerful drug. It was human nature to revel in the misfortune of others.
When these streamers were riding high, the average viewer felt neither strong affection nor animosity towards them. But the moment they faltered, those same viewers transformed into righteous crusaders, eager to tear them down. And to be fair, some of the streamers' actions were genuinely reprehensible, striking a nerve with the public.
[Lucas should just disappear from streaming!]
[Who does Lucas think he is, threatening people? He's brought this on himself!]
[I always knew Tyler was a bad seed. Glorifying drug use? What a disgrace!]
[Seraphina snapped women's pants and posted it online? That's disgusting! She's a menace to society!]
[I used to love her singing, but I can't support someone like that!]
[Lumi just joined Shark Live, and now this happens. She's probably facing a hefty breach of contract penalty!]
Viewers delighted in kicking the streamers while they were down, their mockery echoing across the internet.
Every new revelation was met with glee, and internet sleuths dug up even more dirt on the beleaguered streamers.
The streaming world was in turmoil, and every platform was feeling the heat.
Those in the know understood the kind of financial firepower it took to orchestrate such a massive public relations crisis.
Hilda's face contorted into a mask of rage, his eyes burning with fury. He looked like a caged animal, ready to lash out at anyone in his path.
Benjamin remained silent, observing Skyview and Oliver with a mixture of apprehension and admiration. He thought, 'These two are audacious, ruthless even, to manipulate public opinion on such a grand scale. But there is no denying their effectiveness.
'I need to re-evaluate the Shark Live acquisition. This situation has just become far more complicated.'
"Skyview, Oliver!" Hilda roared, his voice hoarse with anger. "Was this your doing? Did you orchestrate this?"
Skyview's laughter filled the room. "You guessed it, Hilda. This was our masterpiece, a joint effort between Oliver and me."
His laughter was loud, triumphant.
"Seeing you squirm brings me immense joy, Hilda," Oliver chimed in, slapping the table with glee.
He savored this moment. Hilda had always enjoyed mocking him, belittling him at every turn. Now, the tables had turned.
"You dare oppose me, the Davis family?" Hilda raged. "Shark Live is my life's work, and you're trying to destroy it? You'll pay for this!"
Skyview scoffed. "You overestimate yourself, Hilda. You're nothing to me, not even worthy of being my enemy."
He had no interest in Hilda or the Davis family. They were small fry in his eyes.
'If I couldn't handle a minor inconvenience like them, how could I ever hope to navigate the cutthroat world of business and face down truly formidable opponents?' Skyview thought to himself.
"Well said, Skyview!" Oliver cheered. "You've scared the living daylights out of him."
