The boy band Extragalactic System, led by popular movie star Duan Yike, makes its highly anticipated debut.
Although they all debuted together, Jiang Chenzhi remains lukewarm, while the other members each gain over a million fans overnight. His own account is still hovering around a few hundred thousand.
The other members are swamped with work, while he has nothing to do.
He has to pass the time by streaming games, never expecting his livestreams to explode in popularity on the platform, overtaking his fame in the entertainment industry and taking over the trending charts.
'Boy-band member Jiang Chenzhi becomes a popular game streamer.'
In an instant, Jiang Chenzhi is inundated with work and becomes a popular star in the entertainment industry, but he barely ever does any promotional activities.
Looking at his follower count surpassing ten million, Jiang Chenzhi can't help but exclaim, "Damn, if I'd known livestreaming was such an easy way to get famous, why did I even join the entertainment industry?"
One day during a livestream, he encounters a streamer called "Do You Know," who opposes him at every turn. Jiang Chenzhi can't get the better of him verbally.
"Some newbie streamer dares to provoke me!"
Jiang Chenzhi immediately requests a voice call so he can face him head-on.
And so, day after day, he challenges this person, who won't even reveal his voice, and they keep going head-to-head.
Who knew his own fans would all go over to the other side and shower him with gifts?
"What, Xiao Chenzhi, finally found someone who can keep up with you?"
"Him? He's not even fit to carry my shoes."
Just before his first concert, and right before Jiang Chenzhi comes of age,
Jiang Chenzhi furiously types out these words on his computer and hits Enter.
"Do you have the guts to meet me in person?"
After the concert, a reply arrives.
"Tomorrow at eight. The cafe across from Yungang Tower."
"Dear Chenchen, you haven't done any promotions in three months..."
"Chenchen, have you left the entertainment industry...?"
"Chenchen, even a post would be nice..."
After they meet, Jiang Chenzhi instantly regrets that livestream battle.
