The Fine Food Broadcaster

Chapter 9 Super Dark Horse

Everyone was staring at a fairly small monitor. The display screen was showing a typical table format with the topmost line showing data categories followed by a list of numbers ending with a total at the bottom. On the far left column, were the names of various broadcasters.

Right now, the name at the top was a broadcaster with the username Unending Appetite. Next to his username was a list of reward tokens collected for the day:

Applause x 300

Flowers x 500

Bicycle x 10

Electric cars x 5

Sports cars x 3

Motorhome x 1

Total value HX25,500

In second place was Broadcaster Little Greedy Cat with a total reward of HX20,000.

Third place was Broadcaster Devourer of Rivers & Peaks, the one out to challenge his eating record by devouring hamburgers and chicken fillets.

Other broadcasters results were nothing of note, most of their reward total barely made it past HX10,000. Some barely scraping a few hundred yuans together.

However, the thing that held the statisticians attention was none of these. The one who had captured their attention was a rookie who had just registered himself at 11 oclock last night. A newbie with the username of Ye Fei!

An hour ago, most people had never laid eyes upon this name. That is to say, his name did not even make it to the list they were planning to keep watch.

However, within one hour, this name shot through the ranks as though someone had blasted it out of a cannon. The rate of speed at which his name rose was insane.

8,000? Hes gone past Little Bread.

F*ck, 9,000? Hes overtaken Super Salted Egg Man.

Eehhh~~~? Am I seeing things? 12,000 now? Just how many m*therf*cking breaths was that, ah?

15,000?

18,000? Hes overtaken Devourer of Peaks & Rivers? Hes in third place now?

When the reward total reached HX20,000, Ye Feis name finally stopped moving.

Even so, the statisticians nearly pissed themselves from shock. Ever since conception, such a nature defying powerful newcomer had never appeared in the Fine Food Section. This guy had stormed into second place, running neck and neck with their veteran broadcaster Little Greedy Cat. H*ly sh*t, is he still human? Just how did he do it?

Phew~~ m*ther, that nearly scared me to death, ah. Just who is this deity, ah? Isnt this progress too frightening?

Ye Fei, Ive never seen this username before. However, surely thats not his real name?

That was too outrageous, mah balls Im all sweaty now, that guys just too rad.

This kind of big news must be reported to the Supervisor at once.

Just then, a voice from behind them said, No need, Ive seen everything.

Everyone scrambled to their feet and saw Supervisor Feng Tianlai standing behind them with a broad smile on his face. He was clearly very happy.

Supervisor? I think our department is about to experience winds of change, a female statistician called out.

Feng Tianlai nodded, he said, Thats right. Our days of suffering and watching from the side will end soon. Be sure to pay more attention to Rookie Ye Fei. Thats right, secure a recommendation spot for him every week.

Ah? A weekly recommendation? Do we have to be so aggressive, Supervisor? You must know how little attention the platform pays us. Even recommendations for deities like Little Greedy Cat and Devourer of Peaks & Mountains are pushed off the list to make way for broadcasters from other sections. If we try to push a rookie forward, wont it cause conflict with our other broadcasters..?

Feng Tianlai snorted, If any of them could produce results like Ye Fei on the first try, I am perfectly willing to fight for recommendation spots on their behalf. Enough nonsense, do as I say.

[1] After throwing down that final command, Feng Tianlai turned to leave. However, he had yet to take half a step away when a scream pierced the air.

F*ck! It moved again?!

Your mom, whats with this rhythm, ah? 3,000 in one go, damn! Its 25,000 now?

Xiao Mei, can you pinch me? Am I dreaming?

Why cant you just pinch yourself?

I cant bear it

This time, Feng Tianlai actually pushed passed the people standing around the monitor to stare at the screen.

Ye Feis name had basically hopped, skipped and jumped up from the bottom all the way to the top, casually kicking off the veteran deities of Fine Food Section from their top spots.

I f*ck, this is madness, ah. Feng Tianlai muttered to himself. Too shaken to say anything else.

Behind him, the statisticians were also stunned. They have worked long enough to see rookies gradually work to become deities. However, none of them has ever seen this kind of progress before. Your mom, did you light a rocket under your ass? Forget about the FF Section, not even S & D or Storytelling ever had such kind of people, ah.

Feng Tianlai had no idea how to express the shock he was experiencing. Suddenly, he turned around and addressed one of the statisticians, Send out a message to the company forum, declare that Fine Food Section has discovered a new deity. I am going to see the manager now. No matter what, we must do everything we can to retain this Ye Fei.

With that, Feng Tianlai hurried off.

The person who had been given the order to send out the message was a statistician called Liu Ping. He quickly sat down in front of his computer and proceeded to do nothing. All he did was breathed. He breathed in deeply several times to try and calm himself down. There was really no choice, his hands were shaking too much for him to type a proper line of words.

After a long while, Liu Ping finally calmed himself down enough to boot up the company forum. It was already busy with people chatting up a storm.

Dear all, our Celebrate Peace w/ Song & Dance has just reached 20,000, hahaha. He almost broke our Song Gods record. Just a few thousand more.

Our Gushing Rivermouth has reached 19,000. Liu Tao, the Song & Dance Section had better be careful.

F*ck, you two really want to squash the rest of us, ah. Why cant you give us a few moments to shine at least?

Haha, you guys are also allowed to show off your rookies, ah.

Our Fitness Section doesnt lack people, however, that doesnt mean deities are easy to find, ah.

Thats right, ah. Its the same for us at Outdoor Sports Section. We have plenty of people running around happily outside but not many could become this popular.

I say, you guys should not complain too much, ah. The best deity from our Shopping Section still hasnt managed to achieve 20,000 reward.

Hahaha, no worries, no worries, you still have the Fine Food Section to prop you up. They are always there to ensure that you never fall to the last place.

Thats right, the Fine Food people are always number 1. Even thunder cant move them, ah.

While everyone was busily mocking the Fine Food Section, a message unexpectedly popped up.

Fine Food Section is pleased to announce a new rising star. Rookie Deity Ye Fei began his broadcast at 11:10 am. As of 12:30 pm, the rewards collected have reached HX25,000 no, wait. We have just received the news. As of right now, the reward collected has reached HX30,000.

Everyone:

F*ck, thats impossible!Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m nov𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)m

Liu Ping, have your m*therf**king brain burnt up in a fever? This is the company forum, can you please not play jokes like this?

If youre talking about a deity from Song & Dance I might have believed it, but a noob from Fine Food? Hehehe.

Haha, what a joke, I nearly died from laughing. You guys at Fine Food have gone crazy, havent you? Little Ping Ping.

If a noob really managed to get that much reward in one go, I really want to know just how many catties of food he had eaten in that one hour.

Pu~~ those people at the Fine Food are all big eaters, so scary.

please read this a

Right this moment, Feng Tianlai was standing in front of Manager Zhao Sen. He looked very serious as he said, Manager, I spoke the truth.

Zhao Sens eyes curved into crescents as he reclined on the sofa. He said, So, what is it you want?

Feng Tianlai, A recommendation spot. I wish to place him on the recommendation spot for at least a month.

Zhao Sen said nothing.

Suddenly, Feng Tianlais phone chirped. He pulled it out for a look, and then showed the screen to Zhao Sen. He said, This is the latest news. Manager Zhao, Ye Feis total reward just reached HX32,000. Whats more, his total broadcasting time had just reached 1 hour 40 minutes only.

Zhao Sen leaned in and took the phone. Suddenly, he laughed and returned the phone to Feng Tianlai. He said, Very well, you have my permission.
