“I can guarantee what I said is true. Actually, our country already has flying cameras, but they haven’t been popularized due to extremely high prices, large size, unstable flight, propeller blades that are easily damaged or knocked down by flying creatures, plus unclear image quality and severe screen shaking.”
“Looking at the image quality and stability of Youzi’s livestream, I can confirm this camera is a finished product. If this camera can be mass-produced at a reasonable price, it will 100% become an essential camera item for every outdoor streaming blogger.”
“Also, I don’t know if you noticed, but there’s wind today—the wind level isn’t low either. Youzi has already fixed her hair several times in this short period, but this camera just keeps floating there, very stable, as if something is supporting it from below. The image doesn’t shake at all.”
“Big shot is awesome!”
“What I care about is—since the Gao family is willing to give Youzi this camera for livestreaming, does it mean this camera will be mass-produced in the future?”
“Holy shit, if it really gets mass-produced, I’ll definitely buy it!”
Watching the audience discuss enthusiastically, Zhou You didn’t interrupt.
After a while, seeing people’s excited emotions gradually calm down, she spoke again, “Alright, when the Gao family gave me this camera, they told me that this camera will be released in one week, and the price will be relatively affordable. If everyone’s interested, you can get one.”
“One week? One week later? So fast?”
“Youzi, can you reveal the price?”
The somewhat calmed bullet comments became excited again. Zhou You began to lose sight of her own face in the comments.
She blinked at the camera by feel, “These are all confidential. Please pay attention to the Gao family’s product launch in one week.”
Ignoring the wails in the bullet comments, Zhou You began touring around the Gao family’s ancestral home. From the dual camera angles, you could see the camera quietly floating in front of her, like a little pet leading its owner forward.
“Aw, why does this ping pong ball seem kind of cute?”
However, the bullet comments that initially focused on the camera were gradually attracted by the Gao family’s ancestral home.
The Gao family’s ancestral home had been passed down for many years. Its style consisted of ancient pavilions and towers that looked exactly like ancient courtyards, full of the vicissitudes of time, with every step being picture-worthy.
“Wow, this is so beautiful.”
“It’s like time traveling.”
“This is probably how ancient prime ministers lived.”
“Can certain period dramas learn something? I’m not asking you to be like the Gao family’s ancestral home, but at least the imperial palace shouldn’t be broken down like a thatched hut! I feel like ancient landlords lived better than the emperor in TV dramas.”
Even the bullet comments decreased significantly as everyone started frantically taking screenshots. Zhou You also stopped talking, quietly leading everyone to enjoy this beautiful scenery.
Gradually, more people appeared. Zhou You activated face blur mode. Wherever the camera captured, all personnel appeared blurred. Only when she needed to show herself or encountered celebrities who came to chat would she turn off the blur mode.
At this point, the number of livestream viewers had exceeded 50 million and was still increasing. The platform’s servers were also struggling under the load, gradually becoming laggy. Receiving this news, the platform decisively called in five programmers—three began expanding servers while the other two remained on standby.
Five programmers looked at each other and all pulled out cigarettes and photos of Gao Gusheng from their pockets.
God Gao, God Gao, please bless me—don’t let the servers crash today, I don’t want to work overtime!
…
The Gao family estate was astonishingly large. Zhou You’s legs were getting sore from walking, yet she still hadn’t finished touring it all.
Zhou You discreetly flexed her ankles, then smiled at the camera, “Babies, we’re heading to the banquet now—it’s almost time.”
“Great, great! I’ve been curious about what the banquet will look like.”
“The environment here is too good. I’m reluctant to leave—if only I could visit here someday.”
“Hey hey? Look at that person’s back in front—doesn’t it look like Movie King Xiao?”
Zhou You saw this comment and looked in that direction. The person in front was wearing a gray casual suit with a burgundy shirt, reminiscent of expensive red wine—red wine in a tall glass that looked like a translucent ruby under moonlight.
Who else could it be but Xiao Yusheng?
Since he was a celebrity, he could be filmed.
In fact, many people had noticed Zhou You with the floating camera following her. Celebrities, who were highly sensitive to online information, had long realized the massive traffic potential in Zhou You’s livestream.
Appearing at a Gao family banquet was something that could boost popularity. Many celebrities who saw Zhou You livestreaming would either subtly move closer if they were more reserved, or the bolder ones would directly strike up conversations with Zhou You on the road.
This journey was like a red carpet show. The livestream audience was thoroughly entertained, and many celebrity fans flocked over after hearing the news, camping in the livestream waiting anxiously to spot their favorite stars.
Under the rallying power of celebrity fans, the livestream platform crashed as expected. Fortunately, the five programmers weren’t hired for nothing—within a minute, the livestream was quickly restored.
The platform CEO looked at the streaming donations flowing like water and the far-leading livestream popularity, unable to suppress his laughter.
He waved his hand with great enthusiasm, “Everyone perk up and prepare well. Once we complete this, everyone gets a 30% bonus.”
“Yes!”
The programmers immediately prepared with renewed energy.
…
Meanwhile, Zhou You adjusted her camera, and the movie king appeared perfectly in the frame. The high-definition camera captured the movie king’s handsome appearance with exceptional clarity.
“Worthy of being a movie king! Even filmed with this level of clarity, he’s still so handsome.”
“Today’s movie king’s clothing style is different from usual, but he’s still so handsome.”
“Movie King, I’m your dog!”
“Sister in front, put on your muzzle.”
“Oh my~ I’m not a sister, I’m a brother~”
“Playing pretty perverted there, brother.”
The bullet comments surged to a new peak again, covering Zhou You’s face like snow so completely that nothing could be seen.
Xiao Yusheng seemed to sense the gaze from others. He turned his head and happened to make eye contact with Zhou You. Zhou You quickly walked a few steps to reach Xiao Yusheng and bowed slightly to him.
“Hello Movie King Xiao, I’m your fan. My name is Zhou You, and I’m livestreaming.”
She pointed to the camera floating in mid-air.
Movie King Xiao smiled and greeted her, then nodded and smiled at the camera, “Hello everyone.”
“This is immersive greeting! I’m dead, I’m dead!”
“I love this camera clarity! How does it feel clearer than the camera I bought for 30,000 yuan?”
“I screenshotted this part—I’m going to lick it every night before bed!”
Zhou You glanced at the bullet comments on her phone and silently shed a drop of cold sweat. Fortunately, the movie king couldn’t see the comments, or she would have lost all face because of the fans in her room.
She looked at Xiao Yusheng somewhat nervously. From this angle, her eyes seemed to contain sparkling water, making her particularly beautiful.
Xiao Yusheng smiled, “Are you a streamer?”
Zhou You quickly nodded.
Xiao Yusheng got straight to the point, “Your eyes are very beautiful, similar to a small role in a movie I’m currently preparing. I wonder if you’d be interested?”
Zhou You gasped and couldn’t even manage her facial expressions anymore.
This was the movie king’s production!
What did a movie king represent? A movie king represented traffic and popularity! Never mind playing a small role in the movie king’s film—even playing a background character without lines, just showing her face, could result in a crazy surge of followers!
Every internet celebrity had a dream of entering the entertainment industry. Under the contrast of entertainment stars, internet celebrities always seemed to be a step below celebrities. If there was a chance to develop in a better direction, who would refuse?
Zhou You quickly nodded, “Thank you for your praise. If you’re willing to give me this opportunity, I will treasure it!”
Xiao Yusheng smiled slightly and handed her his business card, “This is my contact information.”
Zhou You was thoughtful and used the back of her hand to block the view, not letting the camera capture the business card.
At this moment, the bullet comments had gone crazy.
“Ahhh, our Youyou is going to make it big, going to be a star in the entertainment industry!”
“The movie king just mentioned a new movie, right? Wonder when the new movie will be released.”
“Our movie king has such a keen eye for talent. Weren’t there rumors before that our movie king spoke up for that Gao person because he was interested in him? Those people should really come and see—the movie king just appreciates talent. Don’t let every random cat and dog try to ride on his popularity.”
Zhou You watched the movie king’s departing figure, her steps somewhat unsteady.
She felt today was so lucky it seemed unreal.
“Babies, I urgently need someone to pinch me right now to see if I’m dreaming.”
Zhou You’s steps were still floating even when she took her seat.
The Gao family’s guest reception hall was extremely spacious, with long tables placed in the center. Countless varieties of food, desserts, and beverages were displayed on them. Many ingredients worth thousands were casually arranged on the tables as if they could be bought anywhere.
The overall design of the hall was buffet-style, because this wasn’t just a simple banquet, but also provided an environment for people in their circles to interact with each other. Compared to sitting properly in their seats, people preferred to swirl their wine glasses and strike up conversations with people they were interested in, discussing cooperation projects or family alliances.
Zhou You glanced at the bullet comments frantically posting “holy shit,” nervously moving closer to her boyfriend, her gaze fixed intently on the elevated platform.
Then, the hall’s lights dimmed.
Only a ring of firefly-like small lights remained lit around the hall’s perimeter.
After less than two minutes, three people slowly walked onto the stage, and the hall lights gradually brightened.
Of these three people, one was younger, looking to be around thirty, with stern features that seemed rather unapproachable.
The second was an elderly man. Though called elderly, his hair was only graying. His back was straight, his smile warm and kind, his eyes seeming to hold the vicissitudes of time, making it impossible to guess his age at first glance.
Standing shoulder to shoulder with the old man was an elderly woman. Her hair was pinned back, her eyes clear and bright. Though her appearance had clearly aged, her soul seemed like that of a young girl, looking at this world as if seeing the sparkling Milky Way in the sky and vast fields of flowers on the ground. The elderly woman also stood with straight back and elegant steps.
These three were Gao Shi’s father, along with Gao Shi’s grandfather and grandmother.
The bullet comments were going completely crazy.
“Who are these three people? Can someone give me some background? Don’t tell me the one celebrating his birthday is that old man—he only looks about sixty.”
“Good lord, his back is straighter than mine. I already walk with a bit of a hunch.”
“Wuwu, that elderly lady is truly beautiful. She must have been absolutely gorgeous when she was young! ‘Beauty lies in the bones, not the skin’—now I understand this saying. I hope when I’m old, I can have such appearance and bearing.”
“Is that gentleman in front a young master of the Gao family? He’s literally killing me with handsomeness. I can’t resist this icy CEO vibe. Sorry, I’m switching sides. Isn’t stanning a CEO more thrilling than stanning celebrities?”
“Friendly reminder: those two elderly people are today’s protagonists, with one celebrating his eightieth birthday today. The other is the current head of the Gao family. Though it’s never been reported in the news, based on my speculation, he should be at least in his forties now [dog head emoji]”
“In his forties? Why do I feel like he looks younger than me?”
“Speaking of which, have you ever seen the Gao family’s young master?”
“The Gao family’s young master doesn’t seem to have appeared in the news, right? No one knows what he actually looks like yet.”
The bullet comments scrolled frantically while the stage continued.
After Gao’s father thanked everyone for coming, grandfather Gao began to speak. His pauses between words had a special rhythm that made people involuntarily quiet down to listen.
Back then, grandfather and grandmother Gao had met amid the flames of war. One was a young master returned from studying abroad, the other was a young lady from an official family. Both had passionate, burning souls within them. They fell in love at first sight, loved during wartime, and together built the Gao family with their own hands.
When grandfather Gao spoke, his words were clear and eloquent, flowing so naturally that those who didn’t know better might think he had memorized a script. But his tone was so natural that people couldn’t help but wonder—could these words actually be improvised on the spot?
And indeed, that was the case.
grandfather Gao had only determined the general content he wanted to convey; the specific wording was indeed improvised.
He said that some words, when spoken for the first time, could better stir people’s emotions—repeated rehearsals would actually make them lose their flavor.
grandfather Gao’s literary talent was quite astonishing. Gao Shi had once suspected that grandfather and grandmother Gao’s romantic poetry exchanges under flowers and moonlight had played a significant role in developing grandfather Gao’s eloquence.
While grandfather Gao spoke, his hand still held grandmother Gao’s tightly. Someone in the bullet comments noticed this detail and frantically screamed about being struck by their sweetness.
“Meeting in war, staying together in peace. I never thought my first life-or-death CP would be an elderly couple.”
“Isn’t the older generation’s romance sweeter than young people’s nowadays?”
“I naively thought I was just here to watch a birthday banquet, didn’t expect to be force-fed dog food.”
After grandfather Gao finished speaking, everyone raised their glasses. Then grandfather Gao changed his tone, saying, “Our youngest child came of age this year. Due to poor health previously, we haven’t brought him out to meet everyone.”
As he spoke, two more figures slowly walked up from below the stage—it was Gao Shi and Gao Gusheng.
Gao Shi wore a black casual suit with a black shirt underneath.
Suits, when worn poorly, only make people look like insurance salesmen, especially black suits—this feeling is even stronger. But Gao Shi’s temperament was sharp as an unsheathed blade, and he was a natural clothes hanger, so there was no need to worry about such concerns.
Beside him, Gao Gusheng wore a champagne-colored casual small suit with a matching bow tie, looking obedient and cute. Standing together, they looked exactly like a black Doberman and a yellow Pomeranian.
The bullet comments had gone crazy from the moment Gao Shi appeared.
“Who is this man?! Five minutes—I want all his information!”
“What do you mean ‘this man’? This is my husband! I declare that starting today, he’s my new husband!”
“Even though he’s wearing so much, why do I feel he’s so sexy? I want to strip him naked!”
“Sister, you’re quite bold. Look at his eyes—wow! So sharp! I feel like if he looked at me once, I’d confess all the bad things I’ve done in my life.”
“I just love this kind of thrilling feeling [lustful emoji] [lustful emoji]”
“Huh? There’s another person behind? This one also looks really good.”
“Holy shit holy shit holy shit! Is this a face a human can have? Could this be a robot?”
“This face, I—I really fucking can’t handle it!”
“How can someone have a face like this? Too outrageous, too outrageous! No, I can’t keep looking. If I keep watching, I’m going to turn gay!”
Looking at this passage, I notice it’s a duplicate of content we’ve already discussed. Based on our previous conversation about the generational relationships, here’s the corrected translation:
Amid all the “holy shit” comments, one bullet comment emerged out of nowhere.
“Wait wait wait, don’t you think that younger one in the back looks very familiar?”
“He looks a lot like that Gao Gusheng who’s been at the center of controversy and extremely popular recently!”
This comment was obviously paid for, with golden special effects that suppressed all the colorful bullet comments below it.
Immediately, the bullet comments went blank for two seconds, then flooded the entire screen like a bursting dam.
The servers started lagging again. The livestream platform CEO wiped sweat from his forehead while frantically mobilizing the company’s programmers, determined not to let the livestream crash at this critical moment.
“…It really is Gao Gusheng. I compared photos—absolutely no mistake.”
“Gao Gusheng? Weren’t people online saying his family circumstances weren’t good? What’s going on here?”
“Gao Gusheng is the Gao family’s young master? Wait, if Gao Gusheng is the young master, then who’s that particularly handsome man in front of him?”
“They definitely have a blood relationship. Look at their eyebrows and eyes—they’re five or six parts similar. You don’t need a DNA test to see they’re absolutely blood-related.”
“So no matter what, Gao Gusheng is definitely part of the Gao family.”
“Ah? So if Gao Gusheng is from the Gao family, then him and Movie King Xiao…”
Everyone understood the unfinished implication of this comment.
If Gao Gusheng was a young master of the Gao family, then when he and Movie King Xiao trended together, who exactly was riding whose popularity?
At this moment, the netizens who had previously posted speculative comments under Gao Gusheng’s Weibo, as well as Xiao Yusheng sitting below the stage with a stiff smile, all felt their cheeks burning as if they’d been slapped.
