After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry-Chapter 123 - Are You Going to Kill Me, My Friend?

Chapter 123: Chapter 123 Are You Going to Kill Me, My Friend?

She changed into a clean outfit and washed her face, holding the long hoe that seemed so out of place with her image.

Standing in front of the camera, she tossed the hoe into the air, made it spin once and then it steadily landed back in her palm. The movement caused the breath of both the online audience and the staff onsite to hitch, afraid it might come crashing down on Ji Tian’s head.

Ji Tian placed the hoe next to her and said with raised eyebrows, “Today I want to introduce a great item for everyone: the manual excavator. It’s easy to operate and affordable—it can dig holes, it can weed, it’s essential for getting rich. Got too many weeds in front of your house? It’s perfect for those with love-induced brain fog. Have them dig for eighteen years. It’s highly effective for treatment.”

“Yu the Great used it to control floods, Jingwei used it to fill the sea, Da Lang used it to catch cheaters, and the Eight Immortals used it to cross the sea. It’s exquisitely made, environmentally friendly, doesn’t need oil, doesn’t need electricity, requires no warranty, no maintenance, and it can still send you off after decades.”

“Buy it for your brother—one dig left, one dig right, and digging corners becomes a breeze. Give it to your bestie, and once she takes this hoe, she’ll be cut off from worldly distractions. It’s a must-have for successful people, a weapon for strong women. You can advance to attack Wuyi Mountain with it, or retreat to defend Nanniwan. Plus, it’s great for scaring away stray dogs. When traveling isn’t safe, carrying it with you will make even King Yan shake with fear.”

“Only a hundred pieces available, once sold out, no more. Whether or not you can get one depends on how quickly you act. Hit the link!”

Yan Ming was stunned—such a slick talker! With that kind of eloquence, it would be a waste not to go into live-stream sales.

He clicked on the link for the hoes, dubious yet curious. In five seconds, they were all snatched up.

[Hahaha, are they really as amazing as she says? I don’t believe it, I have to try it for myself.]

[My love-brained friend needs one, I hope she takes it and goes to liberate all beings rather than hanging herself on a crooked tree.]

[What’s the difference between love-brained and cancerous love?]

[Seriously, the hoes sold out in a few seconds? Have you all lost your minds?!]

[Perfect timing, my family was just missing a stick to beat dogs with, I think it’s quite fitting.]

The public chat filled with jokes, asking “What’s love-brain?”

Yan Ming glanced at the comments and spoke to Ji Tian, “The netizens want you to explain what ‘love-brain’ is.”

It was obvious that the netizens were just teasing with their question.

Ji Tian smiled at the camera, “Love-brain, as the name suggests, is a sincere brain that falls head over heels in love with pain-relieving capabilities. If you have such a sincere person around you, don’t bother convincing them otherwise, just praise their beautifully tragic love.”

Ji Tian decided that if she ever tried advising Ji Weinan again, she was a dog.

If it came to it and he ended up on the streets in a few years, she would give him a bowl, at least he wouldn’t starve to death.

[Awesome, love relieves pain, hahaha, my friend is being abused but can’t bear to leave. She says that even if he hits her, he’s still her hero. Who in the family would understand? Her sincerity makes me want to puke.]

[Why bother advising? Listen to Sweet Sister’s words, bless them with supreme beauty, lock it down! Don’t let it be a scourge on the world.]

[Love is so bitter, dong dong dong, a hundred servings of bitter curry, bro stuffs her in his pocket, she kicks bro into the ditch, woowoo, how do you recover from a broken heart?]

[Use super glue.]

Seeing all the hoes sold, Yan Ming got an idea and asked in a low voice, “Should we stock up again? There’s still a lot of people who want them.”

They were snatched up instantly this time—everyone had bought them just for fun because they weren’t expensive, just twenty or thirty yuan. Ji Tian raised an eyebrow, “No need to restock, let’s just leave it at that, but you can launch a pre-sale for a hundred hoes tomorrow.”

“Is that going to work?” It wasn’t that Yan Ming didn’t trust Ji Tian, but this was the first time he’d seen people madly grab for hoes and he was unsure.

“How will you know if you don’t try?”

Right, that made sense.

So Yan Ming launched the pre-sale, which caused discontent among loads of people, which he simply ignored.

Quan Jingyou sneaked over, noticing the program was about to end, he needed to remind her again, “Sister Tian, about teaching me to play PUBG…”

“As long as the money is right, even the hoe will be done perfectly.”

Quan Jingyou: “…Okay.”

It was his dream, and thinking about becoming an outstanding e-sports player, he was eager for validation from others. So, he asked, “Sister Tian, do you think my dream can come true?”

“Of course, why not?” Ji Tian’s tone was slow and nonchalant, obviously almost three-quarters insincere.

But Quan Jingyou still felt encouraged, “I just knew it, I can definitely do it!”

“Yeah, you’ve got to have dreams. Otherwise, what would you talk about when you’ve had too much to drink? Keep it up, I’m rooting for you.”

Quan Jingyou: “…”

She patted Quan Jingyou solemnly on the shoulder and then walked away.

He watched Ji Tian’s retreating figure, wanting to say more but hesitating. In the end, he held onto his own beliefs; he was going to become the best esports player, make it to the world competition, and win the world championship!

Dinner was prepared by the show’s crew, and there was a barbecue party to follow.

Ji Tian wasn’t interested. She went to the temporary livestreaming room that Yan Ming had arranged for her and asked, “How long do I have to stream?”

Yan Ming: “1-2 hours.”

“One hour, huh? Okay then.”

“…”

Forget it, it was just a formality anyway. Worrying that Ji Tian might not understand, he reminded her again, “There’ll be a bunch of netizens connecting with you later. Some questions might be tricky. If you can’t answer, just be vague and hang up. I’ll prepare some shills for you. When it comes time to connect, just click on the shills’ names, and they’ll only ask you some simple questions about the show.”

Ji Tian nodded and earnestly added, “Do I have to answer everyone’s question?”

Yan Ming fiddled with the equipment, not looking back as he replied, “Yes.”

In the blink of an eye, it was 7:50 pm. Ji Tian decided to test the equipment in advance, but it froze within a minute. The livestreaming room was suddenly flooded with three hundred thousand people, and the crew had to rush to fix the issue before it finally stabilized.

Ji Tian clicked her tongue in amazement, looking at the barrage of sarcasm, mockery, and doubts about her posing as a straight-A student. The livestream room was heaven for the trolls.

No way. Had she not gained any true fans after one episode???

What was the deal with this swarm of trolls itching for a fight?

At 8 pm sharp, the livestream began. As soon as the connection channel opened, the number of netizens wanting to connect nearly crashed the platform.

Ji Tian randomly pulled one of the nicknames into the stream.

She bluntly stated, “You only have one hour to ask questions. Don’t waste time; I won’t wait for latecomers.”

A group of trolls ready to pounce: ? She’s so arrogant?!

Having mocked so many people, the trolls were somewhat excited to take on someone from a wealthy family for the first time.

The first netizen started the mic with a piercing question, “I only want to ask one thing. Since you come from a wealthy family, you must know a lot about their affairs. I want to know if it’s true that Gong Yu’s great-uncle was really chopped by his aunt? Please answer truthfully!”

If Ji Tian said yes, she would offend the Gong Family; if she didn’t answer, she would provoke the trolls.

She remained silent for a few seconds, then pulled out her phone and made a call.

The other side picked up quickly, “Hello? What’s up?”

Ji Tian turned on the speakerphone: “Big brother, could you give me Uncle Gong’s number? I’ve got a netizen here who’s very interested in his family’s business. I figured instead of asking me, they might as well ask him directly; Uncle Gong knows his own family’s affairs much better than I do.”

Ji Lingyun: “…Okay.”

Barrage: […]

The next second, the information from Ji Tian came in. She held her phone up to the screen and even magnified the number: “Please take note, it’s not easy to get this number. You should learn to cherish it. If it’s too difficult, I can call and let you talk with Uncle Gong. How about that?”

The first netizen: “…No need, thank you.”

After he disconnected, Ji Tian pulled in the second netizen.

The second one started off seething, “Is this lack of manners and class normal for someone from a wealthy family? If you can’t provide a proper answer, what’s the point of this livestream? Might as well have someone else do it! We’re not here to listen to you beat around the bush.”

Ji Tian smiled faintly, “Are you trying to kill me, friend?”
