PUBG Online Romance of the Century [BL]

Chapter 2 - Oh, men.

Edited by Noks and Divetus

Yu Yan was one of only five anchors who had been recruited by StarTV’s anchor sponsorship program.

Although there were only five people, all of them were very strong. Basically, all of the top players in the Asian server, besides the existing anchors and professional players, had all been recruited by StarTV.

After all, StarTV was the best live streaming platform for development at the moment. It had a large audience, good traffic, and most of the great gaming gods. The platform was very generous towards those who became a part of this sponsorship. The contract stated that there was a very high base salary after they obtained tenure, and it was hard for a person not to be excited by such an offer.

The only disadvantage of this sponsorship was that the position on the recommendation list of the platform wouldn’t be the same for all five of the recruited players.

StarTV had limited recommendation list space, and normally, it wasn’t even enough for the other popular tenured anchors. Hence the stipulation—an observation period of one month for the five new anchors. After one month, the most popular anchor would get the best spot on the recommendation list, and so on. The lower their popularity, the worse the spot on the recommendation list they would get.

It sounded cruel, but it was also a normal system. The law of the jungle: only the strong would survive. No one who had agreed to participate in the program had any problems with it.

Yu Yan naturally had no objections.

In the first match of his solos, he took second place. He took a deep breath and then quickly opened up his livestream to take a look.

Looking at his viewer count, he felt as if he was opening up a gift.

11 people.

… It was like opening up a much anticipated gift to find just a snowglobe, which when shaken a few times, would have a few fake looking snowflakes show up.

But fortunately, he was always optimistic. Checking the time, he realized he still had 20 minutes to go before his livestream would hit its first hour.

When he had joined, he had asked a lot of questions about StarTV’s rules. When a livestream first started, it wouldn’t appear on the “latest livestreams” list immediately, but would briefly appear on the list only after the livestream had streamed for an hour.

As for how long it would stay on the list, that was uncertain. If it was the peak time for streaming, it would be pushed down by other streams very quickly.

Yu Yan had to cherish this short period of time.

He moved his mouse to the bottom left corner of the game screen and set the game mode to squads.

“Playing a game of four, saving the lives of some common people,” he said with a smile.

Even if no one acknowledged him in the stream’s barrage, he didn’t care. After getting matched, in less than ten seconds, he entered Manners Plaza, and the 60 second countdown began.

With a slight cough, he opened his mic and asked, “Bros, are you there?”

In PUBG’s duos or squad mode, you had to depend on your teammates. No matter how strong you were individually, it was very difficult to play one against four here. Moreover, you couldn’t type messages in-game, so communication between teammates depended solely on voice. Some people would even immediately quit the game if they found out their teammates couldn’t speak.

No. 2 responded, “Here ah.”

No. 3 asked, “Where do we jump to? Play passively or directly attack?”
