Entertainment World: The Wild God of Gourmet - Chapter 2
Chapter 2: Premeditated Broadcast
Translator: Little_Dragon_ Editor: TheSloth
B-Dog was discharged and returned to his small hut. He was then overwhelmed by an unpleasant musty scent. Looking at the musty clothes he had left in the toilet and then at the daily trash at the bed corner, he felt disgusted.
He rolled up the sleeves and started to clean the house. After busying for a long time, he threw the rubbish, bought some necessaries, cleaned himself thoroughly, and put on a brand new Nike sportswear. He was looking good after getting his beard shaved and a haircut.
However, it was heartbreaking to see him out of breath. Especially when he tried to pinch his stomach. The fat and big belly which made him unable to check his toes while looking down was such a big burden.
After busying himself for a whole day, he made himself some food to eat. Luckily, his cooking was pretty good.
He was a great eater. The pay he received from the temporary acting job was not enough for him to visit restaurants. Since he was gluttonous, he could only cook for himself to try new dishes. The fat belly was the obvious evidence to his big appetite. After so long, he had sharpened his cooking skills. He had no confidence in anything else, except for cooking. He would even have the courage to attend the interviews for five-star hotels if he joined some professional cooking courses.
He lay on the bed, closed the door, and pulled up the curtains at midnight. Lying on the bed alone for some time, he slowly took out a small ball from his pocket.
It was a science-fiction, metal-liked ball. He pinched it softly and the machine was activated. Then, it emitted a quiet light and suspended in the sky automatically. Besides that, half a fluorescent virtual screen appeared from it. At this time, the virtual screen was flashing out a row of red words, “Intelligent Entertainment Terminal activated, lacking the entertainment database information of this world. Please update the data, Master.”
The small ball which was recognized as the “Intelligent Entertainment Terminal” was the culprit that caused the frightened horse riot at the place where the movie was shot. When B-Dog was knocked out, it followed him inexplicably. It said that it was an advanced technology from another time-space of earth. The functions were complicated and he had been studying it for more than half a month but had only a basic understanding of it.
Although the intelligent system had claimed Chen B-Dog as the master and this fact was unchangeable forever, nonetheless, he still acted with caution. He suspected it was the trick of this small ball that caused him to have the same dream continuously for half a month.
There was CCTV monitoring at the hospital so he did not operate it in the open. Now that he had returned to his house, the conditions had matured basically and he finally made his decision. He sat up from his bed, came to the front of the computer and turned it on.
“Beep, data is connected to the entry point. Please confirm the update for the latest database.”
“Connect!” Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Even though it might be an alien’s plot, he could not be bothered anymore. The fortune teller did tell him that good luck will come after the disaster.
After giving the command, the ball displayed a bright screen and then updated the unknown data continuously. The information from the whole world was crazily downloaded. The pages twinkled rapidly. One second, it was at a satellite in the space, then next second it appeared underground of a desert island. Only God knew what it was doing.
B-Dog was nervous, but since it had been started, there was no return. It was meaningless to stop now.
It seemed like the small ball did not need his internet to update the information. The volume was quite huge as well and it would take a little longer.
B-Dog stared at it for some moment. Some words like FBI, CIA and other sensitive agencies did appear, but he could not understand it so he gave up.
He was bored, thus he entered a web page and started to surf for news. The hottest entertainment news, nothing beat the showing of “Ip Man 2”. The movie was a huge box office success since the showing two weeks ago at China and it had reached three hundred million of box office sales. The main lead, Donnie Yan’s social position had risen, just like a rising tide lifting all the boats. No one could overtake him.

He could dimly remember watching this movie in his dream, something different from this reality’s world. In the dream world, the China box office sales of “Ip Man 2” was merely two hundred and fifty million, but in his real world, the box office was certainly exceeding that amount.
In the dream, there were several unknown actors that became very popular in that world and vice versa; some superstars in the real world were unknown in the dream world. Furthermore, a few classic movies did not exist in the real world. This was certainly a huge enjoyment for B-Dog who enjoyed watching movies.
The dream world was full of mystery, most of the messages were similar to the real world.
However, it was useless. You could not ask a temporary actor who knew nothing and just relying on such ambiguous foresight to earn money.
He was tempted, but he knew himself better. He could not make it… at least not for now!
He was simply surfing the news. After a long while, he was attracted by a headline. The son of the richest man wished to explore the market of Live Broadcast Website with Pop-Out Comments and it would be the open beta tomorrow, President Wang would gift sixty-six Iphones by selecting the lucky ones through a lucky draw.
He read again the news of the live broadcast website, making a decision in his heart already.
The development of the live broadcast websites was still early in the real world. It had not reached maturity yet but had made its mark with its development potential, or else it would not have attracted the investment proposals of those financial giants.
Shark TV, Leopard Teeth TV, Flag TV, Dragon TV, Civilian TV, Station A, Station B and Station C were founded one after another.
In his dream world, he could foresee the potential development track of the future live broadcast platform. The era of the universal live broadcast was coming; various video live broadcast websites were having rapid growth after the financial giants entered the market. Ordinary people could play online games, watch live singing and dancing videos, broadcast their happy moments of eating and playing. They could, of course, broadcast a survival game as well.
The survival game was not referred to the jungle position in the LOL game. It was referred to the outdoor activity of catching fish, prawns, eels, wild rabbits, long worms, bamboo rats and others.
Accompanied by the rapid economic growth, most of the people had moved to the city. Living in the automated city, surrounded by hazy environment every day, people were yearning for the fresh air outdoors. During holiday seasons, the resorts would have a constant stream of visitors.
However, the outdoor live broadcast of China was slightly childish. They used the selfie stick, or they fished in the troubled waters at the village drain. Their ability had restricted the growth. What could B-Dog broadcast? His cooking was pretty good, if he could not make it take off, his best choice would be opening a restaurant and becoming a chef.
Maybe it was because B-Dog grew up in the countryside and had been working hard in the city, it led to the ambition to travel around the world.
This world had Mr. Bear as well; just that his popularity had not extended to China yet. He could not imitate Mr. Bear, so he would choose to go to islands, wetlands, mountains, rainforests… He decided to challenge the most exciting adventures, seek for the most primitive cuisine!

Just thinking about it made him excited, “But, can I make it?” B-Dog looked at the small ball which was downloading the updates rapidly.
“Beep beep, system updated. Scanning Master’s body attribute data. Entertainment supporting system is activated.”
Without waiting for B-Dog to react, a ray of fan-shaped light conducted the scan. His entire 3D model was shown on the screen.

“Great, no more hesitating.”
Although he did not understand the logic of this Gold Finger system, but he did not hesitate. Instead, he was looking forward to it and accepted the truth.
He was a decisive person; there was nothing wishy-washy with him. Since the target was set, action should be taken immediately.
If one spoke about the biggest live broadcasting platform, there was no one else but Shark TV. It possessed the most users and held the most competitive position. Although he was confident about the future, but he was not sure how long he would need to prepare for this feasible future? Hence, the consideration of the initial stage must be clear.
After careful consideration, he did not choose Shark TV. This was due to the lessons he learned from the dream world. The leading enterprise at this moment was actually problematic. The news about salary delays, bullying the newbies, deceiving of brands had been reported a few times. It could be chaos before the new investment rectified the issue.
On the contrary, the live broadcast website which belonged to the son of the richest man would take advantage and grab some market share. Anyway, it was not practical to solely depend on the enormous financial background of the son of the richest man. It was the norm to delay the salary in the broadcasting industry; even this high cash flow website would not be different. However, this was not a factor for a newbie to consider.
