Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!

Chapter 454: 440 do you want to start a live stream?

Xiao Yu was speaking the truth; she had recently graduated from college and started working at the Animal Base, primarily because she was a fan of Yan Yueqing. Secondly... she hadn’t yet figured out her future career plans, and her family didn’t need her to earn money or work hard, so she simply took a job she liked to start with.

She hadn’t expected that after arriving at the base, her joy would not last long before it was replaced by tears, flowing line after line.

Some of the animals that were brought in were saved through treatment, while others arrived too late, beyond even the capabilities of Doctor Xu.

Seeing those furry children that successfully overcame their struggles and survived, Xiao Yu often thought, fortunately there was a base to shelter them from the storm... otherwise, with each year getting colder than the last, how would they survive the winter?

Tang Tang was deeply moved when she heard this, "I really wish that every injured stray animal could be brought to the base for treatment..."

Jun Yan knew this was impossible, and although he opened his mouth, he didn’t say anything that would hurt Tang Tang’s feelings.

Little girls always think the world is a wonderful place, don’t they?

Why crush her with the harsh realities?

Yan Yueqing glanced at her son’s reluctance to speak and didn’t say anything either.

She had already thought through many things before starting the base, and while hearing about them now was cruel, it wasn’t surprising.

Her focus was instead on Xiao Yu.

The young girl was vibrant and compassionate, and she was articulate.

Her choice to be a waitress showed that she wasn’t shy and was proactive.

The more Yan Yueqing looked at Xiao Yu, the more she liked her, "Xiao Yu, have you considered becoming a live streamer?"

"Live streamer?" Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, worried that her boss might think she was too ambitious. She hastily defended herself, "I really like my current job!"

"But I think your talents aren’t limited to just this. Would you like to give it a try? You could keep this job and at the same time, branch out into a new project?"

"Me?" Xiao Yu hesitated.

A lively young girl naturally harbors ambitions of doing something big.

Yet, like the wind, dreams are hard to grasp.

She hadn’t even considered which industry she would shine in the future.

It seemed whenever she saw others doing something, she wanted to try it out herself.

But often, the results were less than satisfactory.

Yan Yueqing was willing to cover for her, "You know, our base only attracted attention after we started live streaming. I can’t stay here all the time to advertise for our furry kids, and the base’s popularity will wane quickly. Even if people spread the word, it won’t be long before it fades..."

"Boss, I..."

"You don’t need to rush. I’m just making a suggestion. It’s entirely your decision whether to do it or not."

Yan Yueqing pointed to the scene downstairs, "The clients who bring in animals are heartwarming, our base staff work hard, and those little guys are doing their best... I hope that such scenes can become well-known online, so that more furry children can have a chance to live, right?"

Xiao Yu showed signs of being persuaded.

"If we start live streaming, I can assign a small broadcast team to help you. Our base’s daily routine could be clearly and completely broadcasted online. If in the future someone wants to malign the base, the live stream footage would be solid evidence, wouldn’t it?"

Xiao Yu lifted her eyelashes, "Who would want to smear the base?"

She regretted the question as soon as it left her mouth!

Were there not plenty of trolls already? When the boss first invested in building the base, hadn’t a slew of trolls gathered online?

They criticized the boss, saying it was better to look after poor humans than to have excess money...

What’s so impressive about helping cats and dogs? Putting money to use for humans is what counts...

Those people, every single one of them, seemed to think the boss should be satisfied only if she paid them a salary of tens of thousands each month.

After the stray animal base was built, there were also accusations that the boss was profiting from it, and at that time her girlfriends said that if the base broadcasted live every day, it would definitely shut up the bastards.

Who would have thought that the boss had this in mind, and even picked her?

Xiao Yu still had reservations, "But... I’ve never been a host, and I don’t have that gift of the gab... I don’t know how to promote the Base... I’m afraid it might backfire?"

"You have a kind and compassionate heart," Yan Yueqing said. "The Base’s live stream doesn’t need any fancy words; sincerity is what’s required."

Sincerity?

Xiao Yu’s heart thumped twice, and for some reason, as she looked into her boss’s clear, flawless eyes, she felt a surge of enthusiasm.

"Boss... I... If you don’t mind... I’d like to give it a try!"

She said the last four words quite loudly.

Yan Yueqing smiled, "Okay, I’ll have the live streaming team come over right now to talk to you, and we’ll get the live streaming platform going this afternoon."

"Okay!"

True to her word, Yan Yueqing called Director Tang to explain the situation.

To her surprise, by ten in the morning, Niu Mingguang’s team had arrived with their equipment.

By one o’clock in the afternoon, Big Cat TV had a new host—Moon Project Stray Animal Base.

Since being acquired by Yan Yueqing, Big Cat had attracted a large number of new users, thanks to her efforts to "splash the cash".

Especially after the simplified version of the live streaming interface was updated, the number of regular users had been increasing steadily.

After all, if you’re used to ad-free novel browsing, you’d definitely feel uncomfortable going back to a Chapter with ad breaks!

Big Cat didn’t require a paid membership to avoid an onslaught of ads, which was a huge relief for users.

Plus, Big Cat was very generous with the compensation for its contracted hosts, which led to many popular hosts switching over.

Now in the live streaming world, while not the absolute leader, Big Cat was at least in the top five.

With Yan Yueqing’s connections and the official backing, the Base’s live broadcast was instantly featured on the homepage’s hot list.

"Huh? I came in as soon as I saw ’Moon Project,’ but it turns out to be the Moon Project Stray Animal Base, huh?"

"Hahaha, I was wondering why the official blog wasn’t updated and suddenly they started streaming? I saw it wasn’t followed yet, turns out Moon Project has gotten too big, this is a branch!"

"Such a cute little sister, hello host ~~"

Xiao Yu wasn’t socially anxious, on the contrary, she was a bit of a people person; initially nervous in front of the camera, but as soon as the comments started coming in, she transformed, greeting everyone warmly.

"Hello everyone, I’m the host Xiao Yu, and today I’ll take you through a day in the life of our Moon Project Stray Animal Base~"

The audience was very supportive.

"Is this the one in Magic Capital?"

"I saw it last time when Big Boss Yue streamed. The renovation was pretty nice, but I don’t have friends in Magic Capital, so I don’t know how it’s been doing?"

"Great to have a live broadcast! I can watch the little animals at the Base while slacking off, it must be very healing."

Watching the comments, Xiao Yu responded, "Cute animals can indeed provide a lot of healing. Let me first show you the fur kids in the yard."

She gestured for the camera to pan behind her.

In the outdoor area, there were numerous lively little animals, each one frolicking in the yard, having a great time.

"Ahhh so cute! That white dog is playing with a big orange cat pushing a ball!"

"The Corgi sunbathing in the corner is so adorable too!"

"They’re washed so clean! You can tell they’ve been well cared for~"

"Where’s the Base located? I’m in Magic Capital, and I don’t have anything to do this weekend. I’d like to come visit!"

Xiao Yu took the time to explain each question, then her tone became more earnest, "Seeing the healthy fur kids play is everyone at the Base’s wish, but... the scenes we see every day are not like the ones you all see..."

She took a deep breath, "Are you ready to come with me to see the really busy area of the Base? Friendly reminder, if you have a weak heart, you might want to get some hot water ready."
