Nora

Chapter 97:.

‘Sweetcherry VS KindnessPrevails’.

A few big words appeared in the comments section of her live stream channel. One could not see her profile picture on her own live stream channel; one could only see it on the leaderboard on the main showdowns page.

Cherry was still a rookie at this point. Although she had a big boss like Grandfather Sponsor supporting her, she had only gained 200,000 fans during this time period. She was not on the same level as the big streamers with millions of fans.

The photos displayed at the top of the events section on the home page were all of the big name streamers. Cherry’s photo was at the bottom, so her first confrontation was not shown in a promotional section.

However, once one made it into the top ten, it would appear on the home page. Not only would it attract the attention of a large number of fans, but it would also trend on social media.

At the live streaming platform company.

The supervisor was talking to the head of the showdown competition. He asked him, “How can we animate this year’s competition, are there any interesting topics?”.

The person in charge replied, “The big live streamers on the game channels are still the same, but I have high hopes for Sweetcherry.”

The supervisor was taken aback. He asked, “Sweetcherry? How many fans does it have?”

“200,000.”

The supervisor made a dismissive gesture. “What can they do with 200,000 fans? We have lots of those nobodies on the platform.”

The person in charge laughed and said, “Why, she’s a five-year-old girl!”

The supervisor was surprised.

Intrigued, he asked, “Really?”.

The person in charge nodded. “Yes, really. I’m going to show you. I’ve seen the video showing your face during your live broadcast. It’s definitely worth advertising it.”

The supervisor said, “So, what are you waiting for? Put it on social media and give it hype.”

However, the person in charge shook his head mysteriously and said, “We can’t do that yet.”

“Why?”

“There’s not enough attention on it yet!” He said, “Let’s wait until it’s in the top ten!”.

The supervisor immediately laughed and said, “Can an unknown with 200,000 fans make it to the top ten? It would be impressive enough if she made it to the top twenty.”

When the person in charge heard what he said, he smiled mysteriously again and said, “Do you know how much her top fan has given her in donations? 1.5 million dollars! That’s already enough money for her to get a top ten position! Once she gets into the top ten and goes up against the big boys of live streaming, the hype will come naturally. When that happens, if we show the charming contrast between her personality and people’s expectations of her, that little streamer will definitely go viral!”

The manager took out his cell phone and showed Cherry’s photo to the supervisor. He said, “Take a look at this, do you know who she is? I really suspect she’s a little girl from some wealthy family who’s just having fun on the platform. Her biggest fan spoils her too much.”

The supervisor picked up the cell phone and looked at the photo carefully for quite a while. However, he shook his head and replied, “I’ve seen some of the well-known guys among the rich in New York, but I’ve never seen her.”

The supervisor took out his cell phone and watched Sweetcherry’s live stream for a while, listening to her verbally attack people online with her young and tender voice. Five minutes into the live stream, Cherry had already dropped a few golden phrases.

For example, one player in the game had complained about not joining a team in the early stages. Even after she explained it, the other party was still insulting her, so she immediately said, “Is your whole family so skilled at doing nothing?”

The supervisor didn’t understand what she was referring to, but found the answer in the comments.

‘Hahaha! The streamer is saying that her whole family is full of useless people. She has a very sharp tongue.’

‘She’s too cute!’

Someone also asked:

‘Where did you learn all these insults from?’

Sweetcherry answered seriously, “Some I saw them on the Internet, and some I made up myself, yes!”.

The supervisor laughed several times during the ten minutes he spent watching the live broadcast. To think that listening to Sweetcherry criticizing people on the Internet would make him feel so good.

He looked directly at the person in charge and said, “This girl is a natural Internet celebrity! She attracts people especially well. She doesn’t make people feel that she is rude even when she insults others; on the contrary, it feels good to listen to her! She is definitely someone who can be very popular. Whether or not we reach the required KPI this year will depend on her popularity.”

“Her picture is too unclear! Find a way to make it sharper – we must make Sweetcherry our walking billboard this year! That will definitely make her popular all over the country.”

Cherry, who was completely unaware that some people had set their eyes on her, immediately saw that she had won the showdown after finishing her live broadcast.

After all, the other side was also a nobody in live streaming, with only 100,000-odd fans. Plus, they didn’t have the Grandfather Sponsor or the Dad Sponsor, so how could they beat her?

After the live broadcast ended and she put down her cell phone, Cherry looked back down at the Math Olympiad worksheets on the desk. Her expression immediately crumpled. Sob, it was homework time again! Help, Pete!

Below.

Nora was about to head upstairs after dinner.

She had barely gotten up when she heard Melissa ask, “Simon, how much cash do you have with you?”.

Simon replied, “About $300,000. What’s up?”

All of the company’s working capital had gone to Rest Pills for the time being. It was still early days, so they hadn’t yet recouped production costs.

Melissa furrowed her eyebrows.

Simon asked, “How much do you need?”

Melissa sighed. “At least $3,000,000, I guess.”

Simon gasped. “Why do you need so much money all of a sudden, has something happened, Melissa?”

Melissa hesitated for a moment before answering, “No, it’s nothing.”

She got up and went upstairs.

Nora, who was standing in the stairwell, stopped when she heard their conversation.noveldrama

Melissa walked up the stairs and into her bedroom. She was looking at her jewelry in a daze when suddenly she heard footsteps at the door.

She looked back and saw Nora there.

Melissa immediately disguised the sense of resignation in her and asked with a smile, “Nora, what’s wrong?”

Nora looked down, pulled a bank card out of her pocket and handed it to her. “Take this.”

Melissa immediately waved and said, “Did you hear me talking to your uncle? No need, Nora – how can I use your pocket money?”

Besides, Nora was an ordinary surgeon – how much money could she make?

Simon had already told her privately that a third of the Anderson estate was Yvette’s, so it made sense to give it to Nora now.

This way, she would have some assets of her own, which would come in handy when she married in the future.

Nora had made a name for herself among the average-level wealthy families since the dance party the other day.

Lately people were coming up to them to ask about Nora.

While she was deep in thought, Nora placed the bank card on the table and said, “I still have some money. You can take it for now.”

Melissa’s eyes reddened as she looked back at her.

The young woman might have looked cold, but her heart was warmer than anyone else’s.

She didn’t know how many years Nora might have spent saving that money, nor did she know whether or not there were tens of thousands of dollars on the card….

Even if that little money was but a drop in the bucket for her, if she refused, she would be going over formal with her own family.

Ah, well.

She just wanted the money to make some investments. First she would see how much money Nora had and treat it like mutual funds. Once the dividends came in, she might as well give Nora some pocket money.

After thinking it over, Melissa grabbed the bank card and ran down the stairs excitedly.
