The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting

A new bait is needed (1)

“Pft……PFFFFFFFT!”

“Sungjae-ssi, what’s so funny?”

“I mean, doesn’t Chansik-ssi also find it funny? This situation…. Puhaha!”

Chicken Box’s office, located in Gasan Digital Complex.

He came here to talk for a while because he was close to my house, but as soon as he heard my story, Sungjae-ssi was holding his stomach and bursting into laughter.

The reason was very simple.

“No, what kind of game suspends you in less than a week? Pfft, well you did cross the line with the nickname. Agreed?”

“Sungjae-ssi.”

“Wait a minute. Puffft. Did you tell Dongsoo about this?”

“No.”

“Dongsoo will also burst into laughter when he hears this story.”

The event ‘Sinking Archipelago’ prepared by Chicken Box.

It is said that the response was much better than expected.

Viewers didn’t know MCN’s name even though they knew the streamers’ names, but Chicken Box’s name was clearly imprinted after this occasion.

In addition, my debut broadcast, when I was recruited as a new member, was an unprecedented success, so it would have been a satisfactory result for Chicken Box.

I took a sip of ice americano while looking at Sungjae-ssi smiling at me.

“Nippon software made a very big decision. Chansik-ssi gave it a punch.”

Sungjae-sii nodded as he fixed his glasses he was wearing.

<Samurai Wars>’s production company Nippon software suspended my account this morning.

The reason for the suspension was written as ‘harmful nickname,’ but in <Samurai Wars> there are also worse nicknames than me.

Of course, most of them belonged to haters who watched my broadcast and installed <Samurai Wars>.

“Haa, I’m thinking about what kind of broadcast I should be doing from now on.”

“If you’re a rookie, you can do anything with your bare body like a rookie. Wouldn’t it be okay if you pulled out AOA again?”

“It bothers me that the Sinking Archipelago event seems to have gone awry.”

“Is it possible that the new family, who has just signed a contract not long ago, is already taking care of the house? Hey, this just brings tears to my eyes.”

With that said, he slipped his tablet PC down in front of me.

The articles that Sungjae-ssi had been looking into until just a moment ago were unfolding in front of his eyes.

Articles were being reported simultaneously in the famous media.

There was even talk about the disbandment of Tokyo Giants I crushed.

As I was looking at the article with my eyes wide open, I could hear Sungjae-ssi’s pleasant voice in my ears.

“I put a lot of effort into getting all of those articles out. To put it bluntly, the Sinking Archipelago event is a success.”

“You didn’t stop the article, did you?”

“We’re not some big company, and how can we stop articles from going out? On the contrary, I worked hard with game reporters I’m close with.”

“Um… noise marketing?”

“It’s similar in retrospect.”

Sungjae-ssi smiled lightly at my words and nodded.

Then he took the ice out of the cup that was in front of him and put it in his mouth.

“There were quite a lot of interests involved in the Sinking Archipelago. Now, interest in <Samurai Wars> will be reduced in Japan.”

“Is it because of me?”

“It’s true that Chansik-ssi’s performance was actually a big trigger. <Samurai Wars>’s monopoly in the Japanese market was the only case since <Gaia Online>.”

A novice user, who just started the game, shook off Japanese rankers, and the production company reacted so violently that it carried out an unprecedented emergency nurf.

This alone is bound to damage the image of <Samurai Wars>.

In addition, one professional club with a pretty good fandom has suddenly collapsed, and its impact will be greater than I expected.

Sungjae-ssi looked at my expression and continued his words as if he were having fun.

“So, what about League of Storm next?”

“LOS?”

“It’s a game that any big company streamers play, and most of all, isn’t it the most popular game among Koreans?.”

League of Storm.

A game so famous that Jinhyuk even hinted at me last time.

It was the most popular game until just before the trend changed from PC games to virtual reality games.

There was even a nickname for Korean folk games, so no further explanation was needed.

Hmm.

I heard that there’s only one case where the company says this.

I looked at Sungjae-ssi with shining eyes.

“Did you come in for homework?”

“It’s not homework, but I’m hosting a streamer’s contest on Twitch this time. I thought Chansik-ssi would be fine.”

“Isn’t that supposed to be delivered directly to the streamer himself?”

“So I’m delivering it to you right now.”

………Right.

League of Storm.

I was actually looking for a new game.

Although <Samurai Wars> can take quite a long time due to its nature, <Samurai Wars> is basically a non-mainstream game in Korea.

As Sungjae-ssi said, League of Storm was the most popular game in Korea, and the size of the professional league was the largest.

Besides, it was very familiar to me.

Because when I was young, I played very hard until <Gaia Online> was released.

Sungjae-ssi nodded slightly when I showed interest.

“Chansik-ssi, you must have played ‘League of Storm’ on a computer when you were in elementary school.

“Yeah, I had fun.”

“You can just think of it as a virtual reality version of the game. Ah, I’m just asking out of curiosity, was there a separate rank at that time? You were in elementary school, so you don’t have rank…”

“Oh, it was Challenger. The score wasn’t that high.”

Sungjae-ssi smiled at my answer while making an expression that he doesn’t believe me.

“Chansik-ssi, you’re going to be a streamer! Today’s streamers have the basic specification of falsehood…….”

Um, I’m telling the truth though?

You don’t even believe this?

“Can you certify it?”

“What?”

“The ID is a bit childish, but I was a challenger. Aren’t there still some records left?”

Sungjae-ssi did not speak for a long time.
