Chapter 155: Leave in a Flock

“What now?” The manager was so anxious that he almost ripped hair from his head. He had barely started to convince Jiang Rou’er to stay when another crisis had just landed.

“A few of our main live telecasters want to leave.”

“Huh?” The manager’s hands trembled and genuinely ripped out a clump of hair this time.

However, this was not the time to be bothered about his hair. Instead, he took his employee’s phone for a look.

Well done. Three other live telecasters who were close friends with Jiang Rou’er wanted out as well.

The moment they left Cat Live, it was no exaggeration to say that the platform would literally lose half its market share.

“Did they say why they wanted to leave?” The manager frowned worriedly. In the past, live telecasters would leave the platform every now and then, but it never got so serious.

If three live telecasters left at the same time, people would start doubting Cat Live. It would deal long-term damage to their reputation.

“Yes, they did.” His employee spoke hesitantly. “They are leaving because the platform was unfair. They accused us of falsifying Mu’s data and disregarding their rights.”

“What falsified data?” asked the manager as he looked at the employee quizzically.

“They said C is a platform employee.”

In the live telecasting industry, regardless of the size of the gifts, it was just a code to the operations team.

In theory, if the platform agreed, they could give a live telecaster as many gifts as they like without incurring any loss.

However, the company would never be foolish enough to disrupt the market this way.

The manager looked at the employee in disbelief. “What on earth are you saying? What employee? Isn’t C just Mu’s fan?”

The employer laughed awkwardly. “No one believes it. After all, no one had ever seen C before. Also, he only supports Mu. To a certain degree, he does appear like a bot.”

“Talk to those live telecasters first,” said the manager decisively. “Show them screenshots of the data and tell them we did not falsify anything to promote Mu.”

The employee scratched his head. “It is probably too late. They have already sent out a combined announcement to blame us for this.”

Meanwhile, a post about Cat Live’s unfairness and the veteran live telecasters’ grievances soared to become the number one post on social media. Everyone clicked on it to check it out.

The first Cat Live streamer to speak up in the post was Pumpkin who specialized in gaming.

[I am sure you have seen the results of the Top Star competition results from the night before. Jiang Rou’er was in the lead and was about to claim the title when C suddenly appeared and gave Mu 100 Endless Stars. That was simply too fake! How could the platform be capable of doing something so immoral just to promote Mu?]

Followed by this, Jiaojiao from the entertainment category also spoke up.

[I asked a lot of my fans to support Rou’er that night. We worked so hard to support her all night, but someone outdid her at the very last minute. It was simply fake! The platform is absolutely disappointing. All they care about is the new live telecaster. They don’t give a hoot about us old-timers.]

Some of the less well-known live telecasters on Cat Live also spoke up and accused the platform of disregarding the veterans’ feelings to promote a new live telecaster.

[Tsk tsk tsk. No wonder Cat Live can’t outdo Tiger Shark in recent years. How could they do this? I was online when the Top Star was announced. If C didn’t give Mu 100 Endless Stars, Rou’er would have become champion.]

[I wonder what kind of background the new live telecaster has to make Cat Live bend over backward for Mu. Didn’t he cheat? Do you think he is the owner’s family member or something?]

[I feel so sorry for Jiang Rou’er. Don’t bother staying with this lousy platform. You are veterans who have grown with the platform. Since the platform is capable of doing something as shameless as this, there is no point hanging around! All of you should just quit. Why bother hanging around waiting for Cat Live to leech you dry?]

Pumpkin, Jiaojiao, and Jiang Rou’er were all famous live telecasters who garnered a lot of attention. The moment they voiced their concerns, the entire industry went into a commotion.

Everyone started talking about the incident and the rival live telecast platforms were waiting to recruit them.

Meanwhile, Cat Live called for an urgent internal meeting.

After confirming that C was not one of Cat Live’s bots, they quickly sent a clarification letter to the three live telecasters and did the same on their official social media page.

@Cat Live: [From the time of inception, Cat Live has always been fair. We are impartial towards all live telecasters and won’t play favorites. Based on our investigations, C is a genuine user. He is not an internal bot as suggested in online gossip. Thank you for your attention.]

[Thank my a*s! Why didn’t you talk about how Rou’er lost in the Top Star competition? She only lost just 30 seconds before the deadline. It was simply too fake. Would anyone be able to buy 100 Endless Stars at a go?]

[Humph. It is just one of Cat Live’s tactics. I don’t care if you believe what I say since I am telling the truth. Rou’er, we have to stop letting Cat Live do this to us. We should just terminate the contract and work for Tiger Shark! Cat Live is simply shameless.]

[I can tell what they are trying to do here. Cat Live wants to groom Mu. If you don’t like it, you can leave. Rou’er, you should leave Cat Live. They are such bloodsuckers.]

The Cat Live manager kept trying to reach these live telecasters on the phone, but they refused to talk.

Everyone said they wanted to leave because Cat Live was unjust.

The manager felt completely stressed out. Where were they going? If they quit, how were they going to keep Cat Live operational? He stood up and told his subordinates, “Come on. Let’s go talk to them in person.”

The manager put on his jacket and tie as he walked out.

“I think there is probably no point,” said his subordinate. He turned the laptop around to show it to the manager with a helpless look on his face. “It’s too late. Tiger Shark has already posted an announcement.”

Shortly after Cat Live posted its clarification, Tiger Shark took action on social media.

@Tiger Shark: [We would like to welcome our new friends, Jiang Rou’er, Pumpkin, and Jiaojiao to Tiger Shark…]

A total of 11 live telecasters were poached from Cat Live.

The moment the manager saw the post, his blood pressure skyrocketed.

What did a streaming platform need for survival? It needed viewers. In order to gain viewers, they needed live telecasters.

It was no longer a question of market share. Once these live telecasters left, the rest would follow when they caught wind of this. The manager could already see this coming.

Before the night was over, Cat Live would collapse.

“Sir! Sir!” An employee watched as Cat Live’s manager suddenly fell onto the office desk.

The manager wanted to cry and could feel his scalp going numb.

What on earth was going on?
