After hanging up, the room fell silent.
Su Xue was still in a daze as she stared at Lin Feng.
"He … he hung up?"
Lin Feng's expression was as if it was a matter of course.
"Yeah."
Su Xue was still dumbfounded. "But … but we didn't even make things clear!"
Lin Feng glanced at Su Xue. "Then what do you think came out of that phone call?"
Su Xue was speechless.
"Sister Xue, do you really want to stay on such an unreasonable platform?" Lin Feng asked in a serious tone.
Su Xue fell silent for a moment before shaking her head with a bitter smile.
"Mhm.
I can't stay any longer. "
Su Xue was not only exhausted after experiencing so many unexpected events over the past few days, but she was also disheartened.
She never thought that Huya TV, the company she had worked so hard for for so long, would suddenly turn on her for no reason at all.
In truth, her life at Huya for the past six months hadn't been very good.
He had only received a few promotional resources.
The first contract she signed with Huya was a cheap contract for newcomers, with practically no pay at all.
Even with such a meager fixed salary as a live streamer, it was often delayed for two to three months before it was paid to her. Therefore, she could only rely on the gifts from her fans and viewers to make ends meet. However, in Huya, the host and the platform would split the gifts 20: 80.
Of all the streaming platforms, Huya TV was the most exploitative when it came to sharing gifts.
In other words, there were only a few super popular anchors who could really make a lot of money here. The rest of the middle and low-end anchors could barely make ends meet.
When Su Xue went to Huya TV's headquarters in Guangzhou, she saw a glimmer of hope when she negotiated a new contract with the higher-ups. She thought she might have a chance to be heavily promoted.
But in the end …
It happened a while ago, but Su Xue kept it to herself. Even Lin Feng didn't know about it.
After commentating for the two matches of the National University League in Guangzhou, Su Xue was supposed to receive professional commentator training from Huya TV's headquarters. She would be nurtured with great importance.
But now it was already the Spring Festival, more than half of the year had passed, and there was still no news about this matter.
Su Xue even contacted Zong Yao, the person in charge of the contract with Huya, and carefully asked about the training. However, Zong Yao only smiled bitterly and couldn't explain. In the end, he vaguely revealed the truth.
Regarding the training and promotion of the new streamer, the higher-ups of Huya had different opinions. After some insider trading and shady dealings, Su Xue's spot was replaced by another female streamer.
How did he replace her?
This matter didn't need Zong Yao to clarify, Su Xue herself could roughly guess.
Really …
It was disgusting, infuriating, and yet helpless.
Now that her stream had been banned and her popularity had been locked, Su Xue's heart was broken.
She was finally completely disappointed in Huya TV, her old employer.
Since that was the case, it was just as Lin Feng had said.
It was better to leave.
…
Over the next two days, the administrator in charge of League of Legends waited for Su Xue to call and apologize again.
But in the end, it never happened.
This situation was completely out of the administrator's expectations.
From his point of view, as long as a small streamer wanted to stay on Huya TV and get his live broadcast room unblocked, he would have to beg him again. Otherwise, the streamer would be the one losing popularity day by day.
But after two days, there was still no call. This administrator, who had long been prepared to put on an arrogant attitude and scold Su Xue, couldn't help but be stunned.
Then, gossip began to spread in Huya's League of Legends channel. Some streamers who were close to Su Xue were discussing that she really didn't want to stay on Huya TV any longer.
After a moment of shock, the administrator couldn't help but sneer.
She really wants to leave?
That Su Xue is quite arrogant.
She actually thinks she's someone important. She thinks she can continue to fight him by putting on an act like she's going to leave?
What a joke.
If you want to leave in a fit of pique, then leave as soon as possible. Anyway, Huya TV had no lack of female anchors. If you left, there would be other new female anchors taking your place.
On Huya TV's live streaming platform, the position of super admin was usually taken up by the customer service staff. They didn't have a high position, but this super admin was considered a middle-level executive in Huya. Pushing a new female streamer and limiting Su Xue's popularity were all done under the orders of one of his superiors.
As a middle management position in the company, this administrator naturally knew the ins and outs of Huya TV.
You're a female streamer whose popularity has just risen. It's fine if you don't know how to be grateful, but who do you think you are?
He had never seen Su Xue take the initiative to express her goodwill before. She doesn't even have the slightest bit of insight. She doesn't know how to behave.
She wants to be popular like this?
If I don't restrict your popularity, then whose?
This Huya administrator only had contempt and ridicule for Su Xue's actions. He was practically waiting to see this unappreciative female streamer's tragic fate.
There was a common understanding in the community of streamers, and that was that a streamer's popularity was closely tied to their platform.
Don't be fooled by the fact that they had a few hundred thousand fans …
If they were to suddenly switch to another live streaming platform, it would be hard to say if even one-tenth of the hundreds of thousands of fans would be left in the end. Not to mention that the popularity of each live streamer would increase proportionally, so there was a lot of water in the water.
Want to leave?
Sure.
The administrator sneered in his heart. He wanted to see how many people Su Xue could take away from Huya.
A thousand at most. That was the limit!
… …
「 You're switching to another platform? 」
「 You're really leaving? 」
When Old Hei learned of Su Xue's intentions, he couldn't help but sigh.
「 It's good that she's leaving. Huya … is getting more and more chaotic. 」
「 Who knows, I might want to leave too soon. 」
Old Hei then asked Su Xue, 「 How is it? Have you found your next platform yet? Do you have a suitable one? 」
Su Xue hesitated for a moment before replying, 「 Yeah. Two platforms contacted me, but I haven't decided yet. 」
Old Hei nodded. 「 Don't be too impatient. Switching platforms is a big deal. You have to be careful. 」
After a pause, Blackie kindly reminded Su Xue, "Don't worry.
「 But you have to be mentally prepared for switching platforms.
「 That's because a streamer's popularity is too closely tied to their platform. Many viewers might look like the streamer's fans, but they're actually fans of the platform. They might be reluctant to let you go and try to persuade you to stay, but in the end, there aren't many who will follow you to a new platform. 」
Old Hei had the right to speak on this matter.
He used to have a streamer friend who was also in Huya. Originally, he had a popularity of more than 300,000 on Huya. The bullet screen was very lively, but after he was poached by other new platforms at a high price, he only had one to two thousand diehard fans left, and they were still slowly disappearing. Now, his fame in the circle had dropped from second-tier to third-tier.
Su Xue pursed her lips when she saw Old Hei's kind reminder.
She had heard of this situation before.
Perhaps it was because of this that the super administrator of Tiger Teeth had threatened her so fearlessly. It was clear that he knew that if she left Tiger Teeth, her popularity would definitely plummet, which would greatly harm and affect her future development.
But …
Su Xue hesitated. She sent another message to Old Hei.
「 If it's a loyal fan- 」
「 My situation … shouldn't be too bad. 」
Her tone was a little hesitant.
Actually, Su Xue was choosing her words carefully because she didn't want Old Hei to think that she was exaggerating.
Because in reality …
The reaction of her diehard fans was much stronger than what she had expected!
Su Xue nearly jumped out of her skin in fright.
