Chapter 135 - 135: Pie in the Sky

“Fantastic!” Liu Tianchen has an expectant look on his face after completing the process of the Food Fight challenge. It seems as if he has been longing for this fight for a long time, “In two days, I will bring out my strongest strength!”

“I will also bring out my strongest strength.” Qin Lang nodded seriously, but quickly changed the subject, “Can you tell me now, how did you start following me?”

He was quite curious about this.

“It’s the D Site!” Liu Tianchen replied matter-of-factly, and saw Qin Lang with a puzzled look, “Don’t you know how many fans you have on D Site?”

Qin Lang was taken aback for a moment.

D Site…

Frankly speaking, he had completely forgotten about this.

After uploading the video of the Orange flavored shrimp, he thought he was just a nobody. The video didn’t make much of a splash in a short time, so he didn’t pay much attention to it afterwards.

After attending the Beef Tasting Banquet at Zhen Niu Pavilion, and coming to Bai Lu Mountain City on Zhao Chen’s proposal, he completely forgot about the video he uploaded on D Site.

Almost five days had passed since he uploaded the video.

Qin Lang took out his phone in silence and opened D Site, an app he hadn’t accessed in five days.

However, someone was quicker than him.

After finding out about Qin Lang’s D Site nickname from Liu Tianchen, Zhao Chen immediately found Qin Lang’s homepage and couldn’t help crying out, “470,000 fans?”

“So many?” Qi Xiaoyu and Du Weiwei were surprised and quickly huddled in front of the screen before looking at Qin Lang in astonishment.

Qin Lang was also very surprised.

“I only posted one video, how could there be so many fans?”

Could it be that the active users on D Site in this world were at such a high level?

This didn’t seem right. If that were the case, Jiang Bai wouldn’t have just a few tens of thousands of fans.

“I know the answer to this question.” Liu Tianchen smiled, “Because a top D Site user saw your video and sent you a Silver Treasure Box.”

“The top three most valuable gifts on D Site are the Bronze Treasure Box, Silver Treasure Box, and Golden Treasure Box. When these three types of boxes are given, they are displayed in a pop-up banner. Other users who see the banner have a chance to click into your homepage to watch your video.”

“The Bronze Treasure Box allows all online users in the city of the broadcaster to see the banner, the Silver Treasure Box extends the range to the state of the broadcaster, and the Golden Treasure Box extends the range to the entire region.”

Qin Lang nodded thoughtfully.

This Bronze, Silver, and Golden Treasure Box are not things from his previous life’s D Site.

It is actually a gift from a reading platform called Starting Point that is similar. “So it’s because of that box that I have gained so many fans?”

“Yes.” Liu Tianchen nodded, “But 1 didn’t get to know you because of the Silver Treasure Box. Instead, 1 saw the video shared by Dove!”

Dove… is that referring to Jiang Bai?

Qin Lang suddenly realized.

With all this, the story of how he gained hundreds of thousands of fans in five days became clear.

He first sent a message to Jiang Bai to express his thanks. Then, with the help of Liu Tianchen, he found the record of the Silver Treasure Box he received five days ago.

Vera0205, according to Liu Tianchen, is a famous rich woman active on D Site.

Qin Lang saw the message she left when she sent the gift, and couldn’t help but smile.

Traveler: “Thank you, big guy, I’ll go buy new equipment right away.”

After returning the message, Qin Lang opened the only video under his homepage, the Orange flavored shrimp.

The familiar video seemed slightly unfamiliar due to the barrage of opening comments.

[Warning: If you don’t have snacks near you, run! Don’t come in!!]

“Grumble?”

Is this our video?

Dan Bao quickly came over, and soon saw its appearance in the video.

“Creak?”

What do these words mean? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The nearby Spicy blinked, looking confused.

It hasn’t had time to learn to read yet. On the other hand, Dan Bao, who has been around longer, can recognize most of the characters.

The two Food Spirits huddled together, with Dan Bao whispering an explanation of what the barrage meant. Spicy just nodded as if it understood, and upon hearing that someone was complimenting it, it immediately showed a surprised expression. The bubble on its head started turning red.

Afterwards, Qin Lang who had just finished watching the video saw a barrage of comments at the end demanding more videos, and rubbed his chin.

Thanks to the help of the rich woman, accumulating popularity was much easier than he thought.

In that case, he should schedule the second video to be released in the next two days.

But also, he had to find time to buy some filming equipment.

In retrospect, even he felt the quality of the first video was a bit too poor, and there were quite a few related complaints in the barrage.

So for future content, he needs to pay attention to this aspect too.

“Qin Lang, I’ve followed you too!” Qi Xiaoyu cheerfully waved her mobile phone, showing the followed interface.

“Good, I’ve followed too!” Zhao Chen clicked follow without hesitation.

Keeping an eye on your rival’s every move, starting from following his D Station Account!

Du Weiwei didn’t say anything, quietly clicked follow, and even threw in a coin for good measure.

“Thanks for your support then.” Qin Lang smiled.

After dinner, the five of them chatted for a while and cleared up the tables and tableware together.

Seeing that it was almost time for the cable car to depart down the mountain, the four of them, Qin Lang included, soon excused themselves.

“Be careful on your way!” At the entrance of the house, Liu Tianchen waved at the four, “See you at the Spirit Chef Association in two days!”

“Sure!” Qin Lang responded loudly, and together with the other three, they walked out into the snow.

By the time they returned to the hotel at the foot of the mountain, it was already in the afternoon.

Qi Xiaoyu’s cold hadn’t fully subsided, and Zhao Chen had also caught a cold after lending his coat to Qi Xiaoyu.

Du Weiwei, who was staying in the same room as Qi Xiaoyu, was responsible for taking care of her.

As for Zhao Chen… Qin Lang prepared some cold medicine for him. With an adolescent’s constitution, a rest in the afternoon should be enough for his recovery.

Once he ensured that the other companions were unharmed, Qin Lang, along with Dan Bao and Spicy, went alone into a nearby mall.

He planned to buy a suitable set of filming equipment nearby.

In his previous life, Qin Lang had some knowledge about this. Although the brands of electronic products in the Food Spirit World were different, it was easy to tell whether they were good or not by testing them.

Through the recommendations of the comprehensive shopping guide and his own trials, Qin Lang quickly set his eyes on a set of equipment that wasn’t cheap.

He was quite flush at the moment, so he didn’t hesitate much before paying.

“Let’s go, we can go back to the hotel now.”

Hanging the camera around his neck, Qin Lang motioned for the two Food Spirits to follow.

Spicy quickly followed him, but Dan Bao’s attention was drawn to a conversation between a father and son next to a toy store.

“Dad, I want to buy the latest ‘Super Chef’ figurine!”

“Sweetie, I’ll buy it for you next time!”

This conversation made Dan Bao feel strangely familiar.

Especially that “next time”.

It remembered that Qin Lang had said this phrase before.

When was that…

A flash of light crossed Dan Bao’s mind.

“Grumble!”

Big meat buns!
