Chapter 1535: Chapter 1535: Account Banned
Guo Junsheng initially thought the streamer was running a soft ad, but after listening for a while, he realized these patients might not be fake because every three minutes, a new person came up, bringing a wave of warm greetings.
In these greetings, some people inevitably leaked bits of information about the patients—a couple of people doing this could be a deliberate attempt to mislead, but there were too many excited people, and some conversations were pretty obviously genuine.
For example, something like this, “President Qi, Chairman’s wife said she doesn’t have the financial seal, the company can’t purchase anything.”
The more Guo Junsheng watched, the more real it seemed, so he listened in more to see what everyone was saying.
Actually, nothing they said was too meaningful, everyone had three minutes, and mostly they were just saying hello to their family, and then it was “I’m doing well,” “I’m heading home soon,” “Remember to complete your homework on your own,” “Damn, I’m not dead… they are in trouble!”
Guo Junsheng watched for over half an hour, finally losing interest, so he wandered to other places.
But this broadcasting room was truly mesmerizing, besides the relatives of those patients, the spectators never ceased to come.
Some people left, then came back, left again, and returned…
Guo Junsheng was such a person, and the next day, with nothing to do, he came back to watch the bustle, feeling a bit like he was coldly observing the world’s diverse situations.
Suddenly, he was quite curious about where this place was, so he posted a large message on the screen, “This place sounds amazing, where is it?”
No one paid attention to him, so he posted it three times in a row.
Then, someone displeased with their privilege directly tipped two rockets, “Little brother, tell me where this place is, and I’ll tip you five more rockets.”
The next moment, ten rockets shot up, accompanied by a warning, “Don’t cause trouble, just watch quietly, don’t ask things you shouldn’t.”
Guo Junsheng got angry and sent out ten rockets in return, “I’m asking the host, what’s it to you?”
Competing with money, he might not be afraid of the opponent, though usually, there was no need for these quarrels of pride, a minor outburst now was nothing much.
However, the other party was really persistent, immediately sending twenty rockets, “No irrelevant questions here, host, educate him!”
Soon, the host wearing a mask and sunglasses really spoke up, “Let me repeat the rules of the live room, do not speculate where I am. If I could tell you, I would have done so already.”
“Got tricked,” Guo Junsheng closed the stream in frustration, feeling quite annoyed, acting impulsively.
But… is the other side really not advertising?
Yet on the third day, Guo Junsheng entered the room again, using an alternate account to avoid mockery. He just wanted to figure out what the other party was up to—if he discovered any misconduct, he would report it without hesitation.
Unconsciously, he habitually started to follow this live room, and he wasn’t the only one.
Ten days later, the room’s online count consistently remained over twenty thousand.
Is there any extraordinary news? Not really, there were neither talents nor looks, just some cancer patients chatting.
But there were more people privately messaging Lin Heihu, some curious about his management goals, but even more asked about the location of this cancer treatment place.
Lin Heihu never responded to these inquiries, outright ignoring them, resulting in him missing the platform’s signing requirements.
The transition to live streaming was rather smooth, the pace of incense collection increased, yet not to Lin Heihu’s satisfaction; this session’s treatment concluded.
Three days later, the next batch of patients started reporting in.
Feng Jun was still focused on Earth Vein Traction, noting a significant improvement, nearly doubling. Considering the next step to enhance the Earth veins in the Bamboo Forest of the valley, this was probably the limit—couldn’t gather everything here.
So in the coming days, his task was to stabilize these newly improved Earth veins.
This session, two more wealthy patients cut in line, making the total five hundred and two people.
Hua Hua indicated that maybe a cap of five hundred would be fine, feeling a bit overstrained, the few days were just not enough to recover.
Thus, having ideals is good, but the process of realizing them is definitely not smooth sailing.
After two days of treatment, Lin Heihu needed to resume his live streaming work.
Then he was surprised to find his live room sealed again, with the backend notice stating: involved in false advertising.
Lin Heihu didn’t realize that this was actually the platform’s retaliation.
Initially, the platform indeed wanted to sign him to a long-term contract—with no recommended resources, daily active followers reaching over twenty thousand, such a newcomer was absolutely a potential stock.
Of course, if a contract was to be signed, the platform would also understand and investigate Lin Heihu, then propose some requirements—aside from other things, how do you plan to monetize the cancer care center you keep promoting? Can the platform cooperate with you?
This was the second time Lin Heihu got banned, seeing the message claiming he was involved in false advertising didn’t surprise him—I didn’t tell them the center’s location, they perceived it as bragging, a very normal reaction.
The backend also showed that if he wanted to unban, he could appeal to the administrator.
Lin Heihu was somewhat reluctant to let go of this account, not because of the little money inside, but because of the followers.
So he tried to appeal, yet the other side quickly reverted with completely unacceptable demands.
Leaving aside other things, just asking for various documents and qualifications from the cancer care center he promoted was impossible.
As for the “broader cooperation with the care center in the future”… haven’t you woken up yet?
Lin Heihu didn’t even have the interest in bargaining, simply asking for the share of revenue to be credited to him—normal electronic contract split, he didn’t want this account anymore.
The response was: if you cannot prove that the things you advertised are real, then sorry, we’ll temporarily withhold this part of the fee—lest someone complains about you, we can refund them.
This reason was too far-fetched, nowadays, people can’t be so easily fooled, let alone an ancient being like Lin Heihu—you bastards are just relying on equivocal excuses to gobble up my earnings.
However, the Earth Deity was too lazy to argue with the other side; for one, he truly didn’t care about such worldly currencies—if he needed money, he’s accumulated quite a lot of Gold and Silver over two thousand years, unless they took his Spirit Stone it wasn’t worth fussing over.
Secondly… he had no capability to sue them, not being able to attend court sessions nor hire lawyers.
Harmful methods? That is possible, but the Earth Deity has always been relatively kind, unwilling to harm others deliberately.
Therefore, temporarily ignoring this matter, Lin Heihu thought about switching platforms, as the “Bullfight” live platform brought him too many unpleasant memories, whereas the “White Whale” live platform had repeatedly invited him.
So he stopped responding and directly exited the platform.
Upon registering on White Whale with “Cancer No Match for a Tiger,” he immediately received a prompt stating this ID was protected, so he contacted the platform assistant, who inquired post-verification of his identity, “Upon joining us, how do you deal with Bullfight over there?”
Lin Heihu proved through screenshots that he didn’t plan to continue live streaming on that platform, and this side promptly granted him access.
Generally speaking, starting over is usually challenging, but for Lin Heihu, it was simple—he instructed patients’ relatives on which app to download, and they could only comply, with no other options.
And by this time, many fans had added each other, notifying each other was simple.
So after five days of streaming, concurrent fans had already reached twenty thousand.
However, by noon of the sixth day, White Whale platform’s backend also sent a message, “Bullfight platform has filed a complaint against your account with the relevant authorities, alleging false advertising, we’ve been warned by the higher-ups, how do you want to handle this?”
How should it be handled? Lin Heihu wasn’t familiar with this process and could only consult Gao Qiang.
Gao Qiang never watched live streams, but he was quite knowledgeable about many things.
After pondering a bit, he chuckled and remarked, “A complaint might exist, but it’s definitely not severe, otherwise they’d directly seal your account. You, a small streamer with an ordinary electronic contract, can’t withstand any turbulence, not worth their efforts to protect you.”
After some thought, Lin Heihu asked, “Then what do they want by doing this?”
“Probably looking to take the opportunity to sign a long-term contract,” Gao Qiang casually guessed and then suggested, “Why not ask them?”
When Lin Heihu inquired them, sure enough, the White Whale platform expressed their desire to sign a long-term contract with him, saying that if he were our long-term contract streamer, we’d have enough reason to defend you, right?
Furthermore, once signed, with the sponsored promotion spot, his rate of incense collection would significantly increase.
But he’s never dared to think about it because his identity couldn’t withstand verification.
Anyway, if they wanted him to join their guild, that wasn’t a big issue, but he still asked, “If I join a guild, can that solve the complaint?”
White Whale sent back six little dots, indicating speechlessness, then text appeared, “This depends on the nature of the complaint. If it’s relatively serious, even with a guild or White Whale, we can’t protect you.”
Lin Heihu paused for a moment, then muttered under his breath, “In matters like this, you just go to your boss; why bother with so much?”
