Chapter 83 Stirring Up Trouble on Purpose
Skyview also observed how these female streamers on the Shark platform were leveraging their appeal, with some even resorting to revealing more than necessary. This behavior was pushing the boundaries of legality. If the authorities chose to turn a blind eye to it, that was one thing, but if they decided to take action, it would necessitate a complete overhaul of live-streaming practices! Just a single round of reforms could potentially result in significant losses for the Shark platform.
"If I had government connections, simply reporting this kind of borderline legal behavior on the Shark platform would suffice to dismantle it. The authorities would undoubtedly address it with strict and severe measures. A single round of rectification would spell the downfall of the Shark platform!"
"Unfortunately, my connections can't compare to the Davis family. I don't know any big shots in the government, so reporting this kind of borderline legal behavior would be useless. It would be ignored 100%!"
Thinking about this, he sighed.
After all, performing some flashy dances was also a form of talent display. NeoSeou's girl groups had so many suggestive moves, and no one had really been banned.
Skyview's foundation was still unstable. The big shots they knew in the government were probably fewer than the Davis family. Reporting Shark live streaming was clearly unreliable.
However, there were other approaches to make the same effect, and Skyview was not in a hurry.
'No matter what kind of company it is, it can't be perfect; there are always loopholes, ' he thought.
What Skyview wanted to do was find the loopholes in Shark live streaming and then deliver a fatal blow!
As Skyview's mind raced, Stephanie had finished her dance, sweating and panting heavily. It was unclear whether she was genuinely exhausted or doing it on purpose.
The chat was filled with cheers and flattery.
Skyview found it very amusing, opened his phone, and charged it one hundred dollars.
It was not that Skyview didn't have money, but since the Shark platform was Hilda's business, recharging too much would be like supporting Hilda. Even if the platform took half of the virtual gift money, there would still be 50 dollars left. After taxes and costs, Hilda would earn at least 30 dollars. Letting Hilda earn 30 dollars from him felt like losing a million to Skyview.
The Shark live streaming platform's currency was called BitBonds, and one BitBond equaled one hundred dollars. Viewers exchanged dollars for BitBonds and then exchanged them for items to tip the streamers.
Skyview recharged one hundred BitBonds. Expensive gifts were definitely out of reach, but he could still buy a cheap one.
Stephanie's dance was pretty good, so Skyview was willing to send her a virtual gift!
Having just received a big gift, Stephanie didn't pay much attention to Skyview's small gift. After all, it was only worth one hundred dollars!
In reality, except for those unpopular small streamers, most big streamers were not very moved by trivial gifts.
However, aside from free virtual gifts, as long as viewers spent money to support the streamer, the streamer would thank them, which was the most basic professional courtesy.
Although Stephanie made a living from adult live streaming, she was very smart. She knew that while tips from wealthy viewers were important, the wealthy weren't foolish and wouldn't send her virtual gifts every day. The small gifts from regular viewers were a steady stream of stable income.
So, Stephanie still thanked Skyview.
"Thank you, 'Boring Surf', for the gift. Thank you!" Stephanie said very formally, without much emotion.
But Skyview's goal wasn't to move Stephanie; it was to cause trouble!
Skyview already had a rough plan. He wanted to use his account to create a big scandal.
If this big scandal had succeeded, Hilda and Penguin Company's cooperation might not have gone so smoothly.
Skyview decided to act immediately, and his fingers started tapping on the keyboard.
Skyview knew that when surfing the internet, the most important thing was to type fast!
Skyview's typing speed was so fast that he could type two hundred words per minute.
Now, Skyview decided to use his advanced typing skills to cause trouble!
As the keyboard tapping finished.
Skyview's account, Boring Surf, sent out this message: [Stephanie, dance for me!]
Stephanie wasn't a super popular streamer, and there weren't many messages on her screen chat room. Skyview's message was very noticeable, but Stephanie ignored Skyview completely.
Of course, if she had to dance for every small gift, Stephanie would be exhausted.
This gift was said to be worth one hundred dollars, but Stephanie would only get twenty dollars. Twenty dollars to make her dance? That was impossible for her.
So, Stephanie ignored Skyview.
But Skyview didn't care; his fingers flew across the keyboard, continuously sending messages.
[Stephanie, dance for me!]
[Stephanie, dance for me!]
[Stephanie, dance for me!]
Skyview's messages flooded the chat room, filling the entire live stream.
Stephanie's face turned a bit dark; she felt Skyview was being unreasonable!
But before Stephanie could react, other viewers were already roasting Skyview!
