Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy-Chapter 20: No. 1 on the Newcomer Leaderboard

"I’ve thought about the portion size." Jiang Qiuqiu wanted to give out more, too. "But there are so many people watching the stream. If I make each sample too large, it will reduce the number of people who get to try it."

Too few people would hurt her popularity.

So she could only reduce the portion size and increase the number of servings to let everyone have a taste.

This was the dilemma of a small-time streamer; the number of tasting spots she could offer was just too small.

When the Level 14 big shot heard this, he smacked his lips, thinking it made sense. After saying, "Fair enough," he immediately reloaded his account and also dropped a "Thump-N-Grind Mecha Package."

#Fair enough. Being low-level is such a pain. So, brothers, how about we all pitch in and get our little streamer onto the rankings?#

In fact, Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream had gained quite a few loyal fans during this period.

Those who had managed to snag one of her tasting samples were the most hardcore of the hardcore.

Some of these people were longtime foodies who frequented the gourmet streaming section, some were high-ranking military officials, and others were the wealthy scions from the same social circle that Zhai Xingxing had brought in. None of them were short on cash; they just needed an excuse to start a donation spree.

The Level 14 big shot took the lead with a worthy goal: help Jiang Qiuqiu climb the rankings, gain more fans, and boost her star-level! If she became a top streamer, every fan in the channel could get a tasting sample.

After that first flashy Mecha package, Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream started buzzing with activity.

They weren’t all mega-rich and couldn’t drop a million, but spending a hundred or five hundred of their allowance wasn’t a problem. Those with jobs who enjoyed her content gave a bit more. Every little bit helped, and soon, Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream popularity skyrocketed.

On the Federation Star Network streaming platform, streamers who had been broadcasting for less than a month were all known as "New Streamers."

The Gourmet section had a special ranking for New Food Streamers. With few fans before, Jiang Qiuqiu had always hovered outside the top 100.

But with these two waves of donations, she was instantly pushed into the top 20. In fact, as the number of donors and viewers increased, her rank kept climbing—

Top ten!

A constant stream of new people poured in, asking what kind of channel this was. The name was so flashy, but when they looked at the screen, there was nothing there. Utterly confused, they would leave.

’This won’t do. I have to be able to retain the viewers this popularity surge is bringing in. It’s too late to start cooking a new dish, so maybe I should...’

She looked at the braised pork rice bowl on the table, a feast for the senses, and decided to temporarily become a mukbanger.

The donations continued to roll in. Soon, a silver-bordered ’9’ appeared in the top-left corner of Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream. As time went on, the number steadily dropped, reflecting her soaring rank.

Jiang Qiuqiu also began to eat her own dinner.

Newcomers who entered, not knowing what was going on, would be met with the aroma of meat wafting from the screen—a bit cool by now, but still potent—and the streamer’s unique commentary: "The braised Gugu meat is rich but not greasy. After soaking up the sauce, the rice has an added layer of savoriness on top of its natural sweet aftertaste. I recommend taking big bites of this combo—a mouthful of rice, a mouthful of meat. It’s especially delicious."

This was followed by the soft sounds of her munching away contentedly.

The newcomers who had just arrived: ??

’Even though I can’t see her face, that food sounds absolutely delicious.’

But—

#Isn’t this the Gourmet streaming section? Mukbangs are over in the Entertainment category, right? Is she in the wrong section?#

#It’s not a mistake. She just finished cooking and is eating it herself.#

#Ohh, she’s done. Then why aren’t there any tasting samples?#

#They’re all gone.#

#? Is the streamer making this dish tomorrow? I’ll be back to stake it out!#

"Nope," Jiang Qiuqiu said, swallowing the food in her mouth. "I’m developing a new recipe tomorrow."

#Wait, so the tasting is over, she’s not making this tomorrow, and she’s just doing a mukbang... is she just trying to make all of us who came later jealous???#

"Not at all, I was just hungry." Jiang Qiuqiu really hadn’t intended to make anyone jealous. "But if everyone really wants to try the braised Gugu meat again, I can make it one more time." Coincidentally, she hadn’t decided on a new menu yet.

How could a yet-to-be-seen dish compare to the stunning, unforgettable masterpiece they had already tasted? Hearing that the same dish would be making a comeback tomorrow, the fans grew excited all over again, their passion flaring up!

With everyone’s fervent support, Jiang Qiuqiu shot directly to the NO. 1 spot on the New Food Streamer rankings!
