4: Chapter 4: Building Favorability
The elimination tournament proceeded quickly. These young ladies ranked at the bottom didn't have much support to begin with, so they were eliminated very rapidly.
Even if they were eliminated, they all received scores exceeding ten thousand, which meant they could still earn a decent amount.
Host: "OK, time is up. Nini is regrettably eliminated. To revive Nini, the talent points need to exceed the fifth place on the field. Next, let's welcome the next contestant, Miaomiao, with 5600 talent points. You have 1 minute to prepare..."
Miaomiao, who was standing in the back, stepped forward and took the microphone: "Babies, it's Miaomiao's turn to take the mic again. We are currently 5600 talent points short of passing. Miaomiao needs the babies' support now."
Host Dazhuang: "Miaomiao's family, Miaomiao needs your support right now. You only need one cruise ship to pass successfully."
Miaomiao: "Yes, just one cruise ship will do it. Hmm, a cruise ship is a bit much, so we can break it down into 5 sports cars, that works too."
Miaomiao: "Babies, please pay attention to me. Don't let me hold an empty mic. Small votes are also fine. Like this, 5600 points is 56 shining stars. We can clear the odd numbers first..."
On stage, Miaomiao pleaded for everything from big gifts to small gifts, but not a single person supported her with even one.
Looking at the empty gift list, Miaomiao's mood instantly plummeted, and there was even a hint of choked emotion in her voice.
Host Dazhuang looked at her pitiful appearance, unable to tell if she was acting or if it was real.
He quickly spoke up: "The 20-million-strong army in the Livestream Room, is there anyone who likes Miaomiao? Save this pitiful and helpless Miaomiao."
[Save this pitiful Miaomiao]
[Oh my god, is there a soft-hearted god who can save her?]
[Brother Cola, Brother Shan, save Miaomiao.]
[The child is too pitiful, I'll send 10 little hearts to support her.]
[Babies, don't cue the big brothers.]
You have to admit, playing the pity card was effective; there were indeed some soft-hearted people who sent a few shining stars.
However, with a gap of 5600 points, these few shining stars were just a drop in the bucket.
Miaomiao: "Thank you, Baby Tianyi, for the shining star. Thank you, Baby Niannan. Thank you, Baby Renjian. Thank you, babies. Although we are still quite far off, Miaomiao still wants to keep moving forward..."
Host Dazhuang: "Countdown 5... Family, throw whatever you have. Let's help Miaomiao together and let her go further."
Miaomiao: "Ah, the countdown has started, Miaomiao is running out of time..."
Host Dazhuang: "Countdown 2, wait for the floating screen for passing or staying, don't lag the seconds. Is there light? Can Miaomiao wait for the light that belongs to her??"
[Light come!]
[Is there light?]
[Is there any passing tycoon who can randomly save this Miaomiao?]
[Oh my, I'm so nervous, someone come save her quickly.]
Miaomiao: "Miaomiao is about to die, is there a ray of light that can illuminate Miaomiao?"
As Miaomiao said this, she closed her eyes, seemingly afraid to face the imminent elimination, and seemingly waiting for that ray of light to arrive.
[lv32 Zhang Shan gifted Its Miaomiao a luxury cruise ship × 1] (6000 diamond)
[The light has come.]
[Brother Shan, you are the light that illuminates Miaomiao.]
[Brother Shan, you are handsome.]
[Brother Shan, you are the soft-hearted god.]
Host Dazhuang: "Countdown... What? Thank you, Brother Shan, for the luxury cruise ship! The light has come! Thank you, my Bro! ther! Shan!!!"
Da Zhuang roared without caring about his throat; he had originally thought Miaomiao would be eliminated in the first round.
He didn't expect Brother Shan to actually help her pass this mic at the very last moment.
It seems Brother Shan is truly in love with Miaomiao, but he shouldn't get too carried away and affect his life.
Having known Brother Shan for over two months, Da Zhuang still had a certain understanding of him.
In his heart, Brother Shan's labels were: corporate slave, single, can spend a bit but not much.
Miaomiao heard Da Zhuang's roar and opened her eyes in disbelief. When she saw the clear gift notification on the big screen, she screamed and jumped up.
"Ah~ Ah, thank you, Baby Shan. Thank you for helping Miaomiao pass the mic. Thank you~"
As she spoke, she actually looked like she wanted to cry.
Seeing this, Host Dazhuang quickly spoke up: "Alright, control your emotions. Miaomiao has passed the mic. Let's welcome the next contestant."
Cola, sitting in the audience VIP section, curled his lips when he saw the luxury cruise ship Zhang Shan sent at the last moment.
What he looked down upon the most was this kind of thing; clearly able to afford to send it, but insisting on waiting until the last second to send it. Isn't this just torturing people?
Zhang Shan: I used to look down on this too, but now, it's so good!
[Ding, Miaomiao's favorability towards you +5]
Appearing at the last second, descending like a god, a hero saving a beauty?
Favorability increased by 5 points directly.
Just tell me if it works or not...
Miaomiao's eyes were red. She had thought she was about to be eliminated, but she didn't expect Brother Shan to step in at the last moment to help her pass the mic.
Clearly he had read her message but hadn't replied, so why did he support her with one in the end?
It must be because he saw how hard she was struggling to get votes and gritted his teeth to send it.
A 6000 diamond luxury cruise ship, that's a whole 600 yuan.
Will it affect his life?
Miaomiao, with her mind running wild, was just about to send a thank-you message to Zhang Shan when she was called up by the Host again.
Although Miaomiao passed the mic, she was ranked third from the bottom, and according to the rules, she needed to continue standing on stage.
For the two young ladies ranked last and second to last, one passed the mic and one was eliminated, so it was Miaomiao's turn again immediately.
Miaomiao cleared her throat, took the microphone, and said: "Babies, Miaomiao is here to solicit votes again. This time the difference is 5000 points, we..."
[Miaomiao takes the stage, the whole place heats up, infinite charm, Miaomiao shines the brightest! (Raise glow stick) (Raise glow stick)]
[Haha, I like this young lady, but unfortunately, I have no votes in my pocket.]
[Does Miaomiao still have light this time?]
[Begging a tycoon to notice my Miaomiao.]
[I bet 10 little hearts that Brother Shan will definitely make a move at the last second.]
Host Dazhuang: "Countdown 2, wait for the floating screen for passing or staying, don't lag the seconds, don't lag the seconds..."
[lv32 Zhang Shan gifted Its Miaomiao a luxury cruise ship × 1] (6000 diamond)
[I knew it.]
[Brother Shan, a man who strikes at the exact second.]
[Miaomiao also has a big brother supporting her.]
[Brother Shan, you are too handsome.]
"What? Thank you, Brother Shan, for the luxury cruise ship! Thank you, Brother Shan, for your strong support of Miaomiao!!!"
Da Zhuang roared again, his voice even louder than when other big brothers sent carnivals.
Brother Shan has already sent over 13,000 votes today, which far exceeds the gifts he sent before.
Could it be that I misjudged him?
Anyway, regardless of what's going on with Brother Shan, the emotional value must be provided to the fullest.
If he can send 13,000 today, he can send 31,000 tomorrow.
Such a good big brother must be maintained well.
Da Zhuang gave Miaomiao a look, telling her to hurry up and thank the big brother, and after that, send him a message to thank him again.
"Ah, thank you, Baby Shan. Thank you for supporting Miaomiao with another luxury cruise ship. Thank you..."
After Miaomiao finished speaking, she bowed, then quickly ran down. After sending Zhang Shan a message, she ran back and stood obediently.
Although she passed the mic, she still hadn't escaped the bottom three ranking.
