Picking Up Fragments in PUBG

Regarding Jiang Siming’s condition, after Zhao Xuan relayed it, Sohu Online Game Company even held a special small meeting, the purpose of which was to discuss Jiang Siming’s condition. Most people disagreed; even if a few people thought it was possible, they couldn’t hold against everyone else’s opinions, so this matter was put on hold for the time being.

Sohu did not reply to Zhao Xuan; they wanted to look for other singers to see if there were any suitable ones, and if there were, they definitely would not use Jiang Siming’s song. Zhao Xuan was fully aware and did not urge at all, as if both sides had fallen into a stalemate.

As for Jiang Siming, he was even less concerned, not asking at all, and after getting up, he continued his treasure hunting career in the game. However, today’s game actually had a small update. When Jiang Siming logged on to check, he didn’t expect that their champion team’s skins had already been released!

Bluehole worked hard and managed to release the champion skins ahead of schedule in less than half a month. Jiang Siming’s personal MVP skin was still under production, but it was expected to be available in the store next month. This time, the price of the champion team’s skins was very reasonable, with the complete set selling for 99 yuan.

Compared to the Bluehole in his memory, which used to sell a pair of shoes or a handgun skin for several dozen yuan, this was already a very friendly price. The clothes, pants, shoes, and even gloves were all primarily red with white stripes. The hoodie was the coolest, being blood red and with a hood.

Both the hoodie and pants had the ’4am’ logo on them. On the back of the hoodie, there were even the cartoon head portraits of Jiang Siming and the other three members. The production was already very sincere. There were also two gun skins, an AK and an M416, both with a Chinese red style.

The M416 had a flowing light effect when fired, which was very cool. Once this set of skins was released, it was widely loved by players from various countries, and for a time, sales were very hot. Almost every five Chinese players had one set. The more it sells, the happier 4am gets, because they have a share to take, seven percent to be exact.

This percentage is already very high; selling a million copies, they can earn a split of 7 million yuan. Two million copies would be 14 million yuan. In just one day, Bluehole’s sales record has already surpassed 1.5 million, with 1.2 million coming from China. It’s expected that this week might see a breakthrough of the 3 million mark.

By then, with the club’s share, Jiang Siming can also receive a commission of more than 5 million yuan. Moreover, the key is that Jiang Siming’s personal skin hasn’t been sold yet; it belongs to him, and he doesn’t need to share the profit with the club. Thinking about it, even the likes of Wei Shen are drooling, wondering how well Jiang Siming’s skin sales will perform, and whether it will sell better than their team’s skin.

As a member of the team, Jiang Siming naturally bought the team’s skin without hesitation. He has never spent money in PUBG before, except for buying the game itself. Now, shelling out 99 yuan at once, Jiang Siming remarks, "It really hurts the pocket~" Not only did he spend money to buy the skin, but Jiang Siming also generously held a giveaway of 10,000 copies through his stream chat to his fans. Ten thousand copies, that number is terrifying; it amounts to a full 1 million yuan.

The audience was awe-struck by Jiang Siming’s generosity, considering that when PDD drew the IG champion skin, he only gave away a thousand copies, each costing 400 yuan, totaling no more than 400 to 500 thousand yuan. At that time, he was so pained he even thought of asking Head Wang for reimbursement, but unfortunately, the principal didn’t take him seriously.

In fact, many streamers’ giveaways have some behind-the-scenes manipulation, with some parts going into their own pockets, while others are divided with the platform. For example, the more you give away, the more the platform returns, say 70 to 80 percent, because the streamer’s agency has already signed a contract with the platform and paid, to promote the streamer.

The rest is spent by themselves, and when it comes to Money is only spent in the hundreds, and rarely in the thousands; most of the time, they only give out products they endorse, like keyboards, mice, or hoodies. During the Douyu Fans Festival, they do give quite frequent rewards to themselves, spending hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions. But when it comes to giving to others, they start to be quite stingy.

Jiang Siming is different; he is extremely thrifty with himself, unwilling to even buy a single skin. But now, when giving to fans, he gives away ten thousand sets at once. Besides being moved, what else can his fans say? However, Jiang Siming doesn’t plan to do the prize draws himself, so he can only entrust the super admins to handle it for him.

The super admins of Room 99999 have never done anything before, nor have they ever exercised their super admin rights. But now, for the first time, they receive a task from Jiang Siming, to draw prizes for the chat room. The super admins don’t know whether to cry or laugh. They aren’t obligated to do this, but the one who asked is Jiang Siming.

The worst part is, Jiang Siming didn’t even tell them directly; he just informed Sun Youcai, who then issued the order. Sigh, being a super admin for Ming God is very relaxed, but there’s not much sense of existence~ With the prize draw matters handed over to the super admins, Jiang Siming then starts his regular game stream.

Today, there are no duo or squad matches; it’s a solo match, a lonely slaughter, a bloody road, now begins. Wearing a super cool champion outfit, Jiang Siming wants to show off a bit. After all, it’s his first time buying a skin, and the sense of superiority that comes from it is quite strong; he must show it off! He even needs to stand at the very center of the square, making sure everyone knows that he is the coolest kid in the square!

But when Jiang Siming looks up, he is dumbfounded, oh my god! Looking around, it’s all champion outfits! In the entire square, with over fifty people, more than a dozen are wearing champion outfits. It’s really too much of a coincidence to have the same outfit! "Oh, this is my first time buying a skin, can’t you even let me experience the thrill of being a big spender?" Jiang Siming protested, feigning grievance.

The audience burst into laughter. "Told you not to buy skins at other times, it’s too late now."

"Today, I played all day, all with championship skins, even more terrifying than the Redcoat Army back in the day."

"I, Ming Sheng, never buy skins. I finally bought one today, and you guys can’t even respect me and wait a bit before wearing it!"

"Ming Sheng, I took off my championship skin to match you, can’t control the others though."

"Ming Sheng is so frugal, look at other streamers, their wardrobes are full of skins."...

Jiang Siming couldn’t see what the audience was saying for the moment; he only knew he was very sad. This was his first skin, and he actually ended up wearing the same one as so many others.

Who says spending money always gives you a sense of superiority, nonsense! I, Jiang Siming, swear that I will never buy skins again! But this skin is really beautiful, this hoodie over the head, doesn’t it give you the feeling of a scarlet killer. Jiang Siming was swearing while praising this skin.
