LuChen's hometown is in Binhai City in Zhedong, which is a beautiful seaside town.
His father, Lu Qingsheng, started his business very early. When Lu Chen was in primary school, he was already a well-known entrepreneur in Binhai City. Although Lu Chen did not grow up with a silver spoon, he could barely be considered a rich second generation.
However, the weather was unpredictable. In the second year of Lu Chen's studies at Jianghai University, due to the outbreak of the international financial crisis, the operation of local foreign trade enterprises in Binhai City was severely affected. Lu Qingsheng's business suffered a huge loss and was facing the danger of bankruptcy.
A large sum of money could not be collected, banks and suppliers came to his door, and eventually led to the rupture of his capital chain!
The company's assets were liquidated, his villa was auctioned, and even his car was towed away …
Although Lu Qingsheng tried his best to turn the tide, he was mentally and physically exhausted and fell ill. As a result, he soon passed away, leaving behind his wife, Fang Yun, and his three children, Lu Xi, Lu Chen, and Lu Xue.
As a result, Lu Chen's fate changed dramatically. He went from a rich family that everyone envied to a poor family. Even his girlfriend abandoned him, and he had to rely on part-time work to make a living.
In the case of losing the backbone of the family, his mother, Fang Yun, a gentle, kind, and strong woman, stood up bravely and shouldered all the responsibilities.
Fang Yun sold all the family property, including her dowry jewelry, and moved to a rented house with her children. She signed a repayment agreement with the creditors and began to work hard for a new life.
After the initial pain and the torture of failure, Lu Chen did not give up and sink into despair. In order to help his family pay off this huge debt, he applied for social practice in advance at the beginning of the senior year. With 800 yuan saved from working, he went north alone to the capital to work hard.
Until now …
The water flowed, washing his body, and drops of water splashed on the stained floor tiles.
As if sprinkled in Lu Chen's heart, the difficult memories grew wildly like weeds, occupying his mind!
"You said you cried like a child …"
"You won't love me even a little more!"
Suddenly, a ghostly wail and wolf howl pierced through the wall and rushed into Lu Chen's ears like a demonic voice.
Holy shit!
He was so scared that he couldn't help but shiver. He quickly turned off the tap and wiped the water off his body with a towel.
The singing next door was still going on, making Lu Chen have the urge to cry!
However, the sadness brought about by the memories of the past was diluted a lot.
He dried his hair and hurriedly changed into a set of clean clothes. Then, he left the house and ran to the house next door.
He reached out and knocked on the door, but no one answered. However, the door was not closed, and the helpless howls continued to come out from the gap.
"Li Ge, what are you doing?"
Lu Chen pushed the door open and shouted into the room, "You'll be fined for noise pollution!"
This room belonged to Li Feiyu, a salesman at a car dealership in Beijing. He had a good relationship with Lu Chen.
Lu Chen knew that Li Feiyu loved pop music, and would often sing at the top of his voice. However, he had never been so "passionate" as he was today — — he simply couldn't live!
If he continued to sing, the tenants in the other rooms would probably run over to protest.
The scene that appeared in front of him made Lu Chen stunned.
Although they were in the same basement and had the same partition, Li Feiyu's room was undoubtedly more luxurious than Lu Chen's. The floor was covered with composite flooring, the walls were all covered with wallpaper, the Simmons bed and other furniture were all new, and there was even a small fridge in the corner.
He saw Li Feiyu sitting in front of a computer, wearing headphones and singing into a microphone with a face full of infatuation. The 24 inch LCD screen showed the live video taken by the camera, and there were a few rows of flashing subtitles.
What was he doing?
Lu Chen curiously walked over and reached out his hand to pat his shoulder.
"Wow!"
The unprepared Li Feiyu jumped up in fright, almost knocking the microphone away.
Seeing that it was Lu Chen, Li Feiyu let out a Big sigh of relief. He quickly took off his headphones, patted his chest and said: "Scared me to death, Xiao Lu, why did you come? Were you attracted by my singing?"
He chuckled, a smug expression on his face.
Lu Chen disdainfully said: "Attracted? I came to see how you'll be beaten to death! "
At this time, he noticed that his image appeared on the LCD screen, and the number of comments suddenly increased!
"Wow! A handsome man came! "
"Brother Fei, Brother Fei, I'm looking for a handsome man QQ signal, QQ signal, length, size, nude photo!"
"Could it be that the host's breeder came to feed him?"
"What breeder, it's obviously engine oil, the host's good engine oil!"
"I want to listen to singing, I don't want a handsome guy, I want to listen to singing, I don't want a handsome guy!"
“23333333333~”
"… …"
As the comments increased, the screen began to flash with stars, shining in all directions, very beautiful.
In the information bar on the right side of the screen, a row of system messages appeared.
System Notification: Crystal Jelly (Bronze II) gifted the host 100 starlight!

System Notification: … …
Lu Chen was a little dumbfounded, but he finally understood.
In the past one or two years, a new form of mass entertainment appeared on the internet, and that was the Internet Nationwide Live Broadcast.
In the beginning, the National Live Broadcast was mainly aimed at online games. Many gaming experts would broadcast their own games or competitions on the live broadcast platform as a host, in order to earn popularity and reward income.
As the National Live Broadcast closely followed the entertainment needs of netizens, it quickly flourished. Famous live broadcast platforms such as Sky Live Broadcast, Whale TV, Amazing Star Dreams, and a large number of other types of hosts emerged.
Moreover, the format of the live broadcast was no longer limited to games. Singing, dancing, playing musical instruments, talk shows, and all kinds of outdoor life content appeared one after another, attracting a large number of netizens to participate.
Lu Chen studied computer science in university. Although he had been busy working for the past two years and rarely went online, he still had some understanding of the National Live Broadcast, it was just that he didn't have the time to come into contact with it before.
Li Feiyu was undoubtedly doing a live broadcast, he was the so-called Internet Host!
But what made Lu Chen puzzled was, with Li Feiyu's broken voice that could scare away the whole street, why would anyone come to listen to him sing, and it seemed like there were quite a number of people who came to listen to Lu Chen sing?
The status bar at the top of the screen showed that the number of followers of the host "Peter Pan ABC" was 1,425, and the number of online popularity had actually reached 287 – more than the number of customers who listened to Lu Chen sing at Forget Worries Bar last night!
It wasn't that he didn't understand, but the change in the online world was really too fast!
"Hahaha …"
Lu Chen was in a daze. Li Feiyu laughed loudly, leaned his head over to the microphone and said, "Thank you everyone for your tips. Let me introduce to everyone, this is my good brother, Xiao Lu!"
"Xiao Lu, say hello to everyone!"
Lu Chen hadn't come to his senses yet, and subconsciously nodded and said, "Hello everyone!"
A new barrage immediately appeared on the screen.
"Handsome Pot Mud Howl, same sex seeking a relationship!"
"Xiaolu? What a cute name, I like it! "
"Xiaolu! Xiaolu! Xiaolu! Xiaolu! Xiaolu! Xiaolu! Xiaolu! "
"… …"
Three black lines suddenly appeared on Lu Chen's forehead.
Li Feiyu laughed and said, "Not this Xiaolu, it's the Lu from land and army. Although Xiao Lu isn't as handsome as Brother Fei, his singing level has already reached 10% of Brother Fei's. Does everyone want to hear him sing? If you do, then give more starlight! "
Just as he finished speaking, the barrage and starlight floated up at the same time!
"Want!"
"Don't want! Don't want! Don't want! Don't want! Don't want! Don't want! Don't want! "
"Brother Fei is here to cheat starlight again!"
"Host sells engine oil, earns a million a month!"
"I want to hear a handsome pot sing!"
"… …"
System Notification: New Yorker (Silver IV) gifted host 100 starlight!

The ID New Yorker is probably a nouveau riche. He actually gave a hundred starlight combo in one go, gifting 10,000 starlight!
Li Feiyu was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Both his hands pressed down on Lu Chen's shoulders and let him sit in his seat. Then he smiled and said, "Xiao Lu, watch the stage first. I'll go get the guitar for you!"
After saying that, this guy ran off.
Lu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't feel disgusted. This was the first time he came into contact with a live broadcast. Thinking about his own image appearing on hundreds of computer screens and interacting with hundreds of people at the same time, it was very refreshing.
While waiting for Li Feiyu, he did a simple research on this Starlight Show broadcasting platform and discovered that there were many functions inside.
But before Lu Chen could finish his research, Li Feiyu couldn't wait to send his guitar over.
This Peter Pan helped Lu Chen adjust the microphone, turned off the music that was playing on the computer, and even brought mineral water. He was so attentive that he almost made the bed and massaged his legs and back!
Lu Chen hugged the guitar and sat in front of the computer. Facing the microphone and the camera, he slowly calmed down.
His idea was very simple. He wanted to support Li Feiyu, and at the same time, satisfy his curiosity by experiencing a live broadcast.
At this moment, Lu Chen would never have thought that his life would take a different path because of this!
