"Ah, Master Chen finally replied to me!"
Chu Chu nearly jumped out of her chair as she saw Chen Yang's reply. She quickly sent him her phone number.
Just after hanging up the phone with Yang Hai, Chen Yang wasn't in the best of moods, but he still decided to call Chu Chu back.
"Hello, this is Master Chen. Who is this?"
"Hello, Master Chen, I am Chu Chu from the Feiyu Platform," she greeted eagerly.
"Hello."
"The reason I'm calling is that our platform would like to sign a contract with you," Chu Chu said. "Do you have any specific requests? If you do, please tell me, and I'll bring them up with my superior."
Chen Yang was taken aback.
Even though both were livestreaming platforms, the attitude of Feiyu was starkly different from that of Tiger Shark. This kind of polite professionalism was why Feiyu was a leader in the industry.
Chen Yang responded, "The revenue split must be 82%. That's my bottom line. If you can meet that, we can sign; if not, then forget it."
"82%... That's a bit difficult, but Master Chen, please rest assured, I will definitely push for it."
"Okay, thank you."
After hanging up, Chu Chu immediately ran to her manager's office.
"Manager Huang, Master Chen replied."
She quickly relayed Chen Yang's conditions.
"82%?" Manager Huang raised an eyebrow. "That's quite a high request."
"Are there any other conditions?"
"No, just that."
Manager Huang thought for a moment. "82% is already the standard for S-level streamers. If we just agree to the revenue split, it's doable, but the other benefits need to be on par with S-level contracts as well. Otherwise, if we only give him the split and not the other benefits, other streamers will have something to say about it."
After a brief pause, Manager Huang added, "Tell him that we can sign the contract."
Chu Chu, who had been anxiously awaiting the answer, let out a relieved breath and quickly asked, "What about the other benefits?"
Manager Huang replied, "The other benefits will be in line with an S-level contract as well."
"Understood," Chu Chu replied, feeling her heart race with excitement.
To think that Feiyu Platform, which had never signed an S-level contract with a streamer who had only been livestreaming for three days, was about to offer one to Chen Yang. This was a groundbreaking move!
"Master Chen, the manager said we can sign the S-level contract. In addition to the 82% revenue split, there will be a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan, five social insurances and one housing fund, along with the corresponding platform promotion resources based on the S-level contract."
"Good, thank you."
Chen Yang was genuinely surprised by the offer, but he didn't feel like he was taking advantage of them. After all, he had only been livestreaming for three days, and his true potential hadn't even been fully tapped yet.
He believed that it wouldn't be long before Feiyu Platform would be celebrating their decision to sign him.
After hanging up the call, Chen Yang didn't continue discussing contracts with other platforms. The Feiyu platform had left a very good impression on him, and from what he could tell, Feiyu wasn't the type of platform that exploited their streamers.
Since that was the case, he was more than happy to continue working with them.
Before long, the contract arrived.
Chen Yang took a quick look. The contract was for a year, which he was very happy with. However, since there was no printer in the village, he would have to go to the county to print it.
It was just so happened that he needed to send the wild ginseng and complete the gift box, so he could do everything at once.
After a quick lunch and a brief rest, Chen Yang started the livestream.
"Good afternoon, everyone."
"Master Chen's routine is so on point."
"I don't know how I survived without Master Chen for a few hours."
"Master Chen, are you going into the mountains again today?"
"What are you going to dig today? Mudfish? Yellow eel?"
"How about digging bird nests? I love that."
"Last time someone got sentenced to ten years for digging bird nests. Do you want to see Master Chen livestreaming from prison?"
Chen Yang rolled up his sleeves and said, "No mountain trips today, I have too many things to do."
He held up a freshly chopped water ash tree and said, "Yesterday's wild ginseng still hasn't been shipped out. Drunk Under the Sky has already transferred the money, so I need to finish the gift box and ship it to him."
"The money's in?"
"250 million?"
"Master Chen, let me have a share!"
"I think it was 260 million, with the He Shou Wu as well."
"250 or 260, what's the difference to me? I don't have either."
"Alright, I'll come clean. I'm actually the one who was at Daming Lake 18 years ago, the Summer Rain on the Lake. It's me."
"I'll come clean too! Actually, I'm your long-lost little brother!"
"I thought I disguised myself well enough, but I guess you all figured it out. Actually, I'm Master Chen's little brother!"
"You bunch of clowns, are you trying to make me laugh to death and inherit my flower credits?"
Chen Yang couldn't help but laugh.
His viewers were truly the best—true meme-lords.
He put on his cap, went inside, and grabbed his toolbox, opening it up.
Inside, various carpenter tools were neatly organized.
"Hey, Master Chen, what are you up to?"
"Are you switching to carpentry now?"
"The millionaire me is starting as a woodworker!"
"The life of the rich is so dull and uneventful."
Chen Yang smiled. "These carpenter tools belong to my aunt. My third uncle used to be the village carpenter, and he was amazing at his craft. These tools are top-notch. I borrowed them today because I need to make a gift box for the wild ginseng."
He began pulling out the tools one by one and introducing them.
"This is the planer, this is the saw, this is the square..."
"Don't underestimate these tools. Every piece of furniture in our village, big or small, was made with these."
"Next, I'm going to start making the gift box."
"Normally, when making something, you would start by drawing a rough sketch, but I don't need to. Still, I'll draw one so you can see more clearly."
He grabbed a pencil and a piece of paper and began sketching.
With his Woodworking Master skill, he was able to draw the design effortlessly.
In less than two minutes, a rough sketch appeared.
"Master Chen, were you an art major?"
"Though it's just a rough sketch, it looks so three-dimensional."
"As someone from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, I have to say, Master Chen's spatial sense is insane! I spent seven months just trying to draw a cube, but Master Chen just casually sketches this in two minutes."
"This is really impressive. You may not feel it if you don't study art, but we can tell the difference."
"Seriously, Master Chen's control of shadows is remarkable."
"These hands are incredible—able to tame wild black bears, dig wild ginseng, and now draw!"
As the viewers began to admire his sketching skills, they realized that Chen Yang wasn't just good at digging ginseng and taming wild animals—he was a real craftsman!
Chen Yang didn't pay attention to the praise. He set the sketch aside and said, "Today, I'm making a pure wooden gift box. The center pivot will also be made of wood. I want it to be as natural as possible."
He then picked up an axe, ready to start shaping the box.
"The first step in shaping is the most important."
"A little too much is okay. You can always shave it off, but if it's too little, there's no going back."
"I'm making a box that's 95 centimeters long, because of the 95 Supreme meaning. It will be 59 centimeters wide, for the same reason."
"Most people would use a saw to cut out the exact measurements, but I don't need that."
With that, he grabbed the axe, raised it, and began to cut away the excess wood.
