"Mr. Smith?" Michael rubbed his arm and leaned in closer.Just then, a voice came from the livestream: "Well then, shall we continue with custom song requests?"Crash!Adam fell backwards onto the floor.Michael quickly helped him up. "Mr. Johnson, what's wrong?"Adam pointed at Evan's livestream with a trembling finger. "That's Mr. Smith!""Mr. Smith? Mr. Smith? Ah! It is Mr. Smith!"Michael shrieked, unconsciously letting go of Adam. Crash! Adam fell to the ground once again.Adam struggled to his feet."Attention all technical department staff! Add $1 million to each of our company employees' accounts. Wait for my signal, and we'll all donate to Mr. Smith's stream as a company!""Oh, and Michael, allocate all resources to Mr. Smith's stream!"Adam's directive left the technical department perplexed, compelling him to reiterate his instructions."I said, technical staff, credit each of our TikTok employees with $1 million. We'll be tipping Mr. Smith shortly!""Is that clear now? Get
Jane produced her phone and handed it to Sailor Swift. The screen displayed Evan's livestream."It's this streamer. A true prodigy. Every song he creates live has the potential to become a hit..."Before she could finish, Sailor had already taken her phone and was heading towards a nearby chair."Hey, Sailor, where are you going? Give me back my phone! You can watch the stream on your own device, you know...""Jane, I'll return your phone in a bit. I'm going to personally contact him in his livestream!""..."In reality, it wasn't just Emma Stone and Sailor Swift who had entered Evan's livestream. The situation was far more extraordinary—nearly every aspiring musician in Elysia had flocked to his virtual stage.After all, a gifted music composer was a rare and coveted treasure.In an instant, Evan's livestream was inundated with a multitude of verified celebrities, with countless more clamoring to join.The chatroom erupted into a frenzy!"Am I seeing things? How did so many stars sud
"What reason?" Sean's inner voice wailed."Well, I was about to tell you when—speak of the devil, my phone's ringing!"Adam waved his ringing phone in front of Sean."I came to warn you: keep your mouth shut. Mr. Smith is livestreaming and rejecting celebrities for a reason. They'll likely come begging to me, and the entertainment companies will undoubtedly approach you. I'm here to tell you: don't make any promises to anyone!"He answered the call, Emma Stone's voice coming through: "Hello, Mr. Johnson. I was hoping to get a streamer's phone number..."As Emma spoke, Sean's phone also began to ring: "Hello, Mr. Sean. This is Sailor Swift's manager. I hear you're close with Mr. Johnson. Could you do us a favor and ask him for a certain streamer's contact information?"Adam and Sean naturally declined the requests from Emma Stone's and Taylor Swift's companies.Give out Mr. Smith's contact information?Ha! Not a chance, even for celebrities of their caliber.Did they know why Mr. Smith
Upon arriving at TikTok headquarters, Adam checked the livestream data on his phone again. The original 5 million viewers had ballooned to 500 million, prompting an immediate outburst."What are you tech guys good for? Anyone can see 500 million viewers is fake. If you're going to manipulate numbers, at least make it believable. Didn't I tell you before I left that Mr. Smith's viewer count doesn't need altering? Just focus on the donations!"A technician timidly approached with a cup: "Mr. Johnson, please calm down. Have some coffee—yelling is thirsty work."Adam took the coffee, continuing his tirade:"Why can't you learn? Mr. Smith despises fakery! Explain yourselves—what possessed you to inflate the numbers to 500 million?""Well, Mr. Johnson..." the technician stammered, clearly still reeling from the shock of Evan's genuine 500 million live viewers."Go on, I'm listening. Keep explaining!"Adam sipped his coffee, his earlier shouting having left him parched."Mr. Johnson, those 5
"I'll start composing now!"Oblivious to the young woman's thoughts, Evan immediately took out paper and pen to create a song for Taylor.This time, he worked even faster, completing Taylor's song in less than two minutes!Click!The moment his pen stopped, the entire screen of comments seemed to freeze.Viewers at their computers and phones spontaneously began to hum:"I will not makeThe same mistakes that you didI will not let myselfCause my heart so much miseryI will not breakThe way you did, you fell so hard..."Gasps!Halfway through humming, they all trembled with excitement.This song was absolutely incredible!The lyrics and melody were flawless, beyond criticism.The imagery was breathtakingly beautiful!This would undoubtedly become another beloved hit!How could this streamer be so talented, creating masterpieces in mere minutes? It was mind-blowing!"Taylor, Taylor!" Taylor Swift's assistant Jane gently nudged her. "What are you daydreaming about? The host has finish
"Emma, what kind of emotional tone would you like for your song?" Evan asked calmly from the livestream.Emma Stone snapped back to reality. "Um, host, could you write a song for me with a yearning for love theme, um, like Taylor's?"Whoosh!The livestream, which had just settled down, erupted once again!"Another song about yearning for love? Is our Emma looking for romance too?""No way, why is everyone dreaming of love today?""Good heavens, I've just had a terrifying thought. Could it be that all our beautiful goddesses, like Taylor and Emma, have simultaneously fallen for the host? My word, the host's romantic prospects are all top-tier!""..."The content of these comments made Emma Stone blush furiously. She was about to type out an explanation but sighed and gave up.Well, the viewers weren't entirely wrong. Since the last Billionaire Challenge, she had developed a certain fondness for Jesse Smith. Even if she were to explain and distance herself from him now, that feeling in
"Haha, so Liza Koshy is here in the streamer's room!""Brother, looks like we're out of luck. All these goddesses belong to the streamer now. We simply don't have his talent!"The bevy of beautiful celebrities blushed once again.Evan glanced at the backend data on his phone screen. The influx of new viewers had slowed significantly. He pondered silently. The livestream now had over 700 million viewers, with more than 300 million being fans of the celebrities.This meant Elysia's growth potential was nearing its limit!The 300 million celebrity fans also indicated that more than half of Elysia's stars had joined the stream.Hmm, to reach the goal of 1 billion viewers today, they'd need to rely on international audiences. To attract them, it was crucial to give them a taste of something sweet right now!An idea struck him."Well, after creating two songs in Elysian, how about we alternate between Elysian and English songs? Let's have our international friends type out the names of thei
Avril Lavigne hastily sent a message, quickly followed by another: "Hello, you've given me such an incredible gift. How can I possibly repay you?"Before Evan could respond, the viewers in the livestream answered for him."Avril Lavigne, offer yourself to him!""Indeed, our streamer lacks nothing except you.""..."Avril Lavigne hastily sent a message, followed immediately by another: "Hello, you've given me such an incredible gift. How can I possibly repay you?"Before Evan could respond, the viewers in the livestream answered for him."Avril Lavigne, offer yourself to him!""Indeed, our streamer lacks nothing except you."Though these comments were meant in jest, they grated on Emma Stone and Taylor Swift. The two pouted, internally grumbling:"This Avril Lavigne isn't even as pretty as us. What nonsense are these viewers spouting? The streamer is an Elysian man; he should marry an Elysian woman! Besides, aren't we more beautiful than Avril Lavigne?"They both exuded the aura of jea
