OFR – Chapter 111 Gradual Development.

After reflecting for a while, Haiqing quickly got to work on the tasks Cold Hero had assigned him. His Douyu private message inbox was flooded with messages.

Among them were messages from some of Yuwan Alliance’s most popular streamers.

The once proud and untouchable “goddess” streamers, who had been high up on their pedestals, were now begging him for help. It gave Haiqing a rush of satisfaction.

But he knew it wasn’t his own doing—this was all thanks to Cold Hero.

So, Haiqing didn’t take advantage of the situation. Instead, he focused on completing the tasks at hand, doing his job with dedication.

Meanwhile, after finishing a shower, Mu Bai returned to his bedroom and quickly fell asleep in the quiet of the night.

The night passed without incident, and when he woke up the next morning, it was already past 8 AM.

He got up, washed up as usual, and instead of going out for breakfast, he grabbed two bags of milk and some biscuits from his bedroom.

Mu Bai wasn’t picky about food. Unlike some CEOs who only eat imported goods or refuse to touch anything below a certain price, Mu Bai found that kind of behavior a bit pretentious.

To him, food was just food. There was no need to overthink it.

Sitting on the sofa, he drank his milk and then picked up his phone.

Since today wasn’t the day for selling items in his online shop, he decided to browse Taobao to buy a new phone.

Though the phone he had now was a high-end model with good performance, it had started lagging during fast gift sending on Douyu the day before.

So, Mu Bai decided it was time for an upgrade.

On Taobao, he searched for the most popular phones currently on the market. There were phones from Apple, Xiaomi, Meizu, OPPO, Vivo, Samsung, Huawei, and others.

He set the filters to sort by price, from high to low, and began browsing the most expensive models.

[Xiaomi Note 3 Business Phone, 128GB storage, 5500mAh battery…]
[Samsung Premium Phone for High-End Users, priced at 16,999 yuan, 30MP camera…]
[Meizu Honor Play 10, a must-have for young gamers, priced at 13,666 yuan…]
[iPhone 9 Premium Edition, priced at 11,699 yuan, 128GB storage…]

After browsing briefly, he realized that the top-tier phones were all quite similar. They would easily suffice for daily use.

So, he casually clicked on a phone called “James.” He remembered seeing an ad for it on TV before. It was a phone custom-designed for high-end users.

What intrigued him the most was that the after-sales service for this phone didn’t require going back to Taobao—it offered direct access to a private customer service line via a button on the phone.

The price was 31,688 yuan, making it one of the most expensive phones on Taobao.

Mu Bai took a closer look at its features. The performance was top-notch! It had a high-definition camera, the latest Snapdragon processor, waterproof and anti-slip screens, and even a genuine crocodile leather phone case.

Satisfied with what he saw, he added the phone to his cart and placed the order.

He contacted customer service, asking them to speed up the delivery.

Customer Service:
“Thank you for your order! We will ship it out soon. Your delivery will be handled by Fengshen Express.”

Mu Bai:
“Great, please ship it as soon as possible.”

After confirming the order, Mu Bai logged off Taobao and returned to his QQ.

It had been almost 12 hours since he had left Douyu the previous day.

From his recent interactions, Mu Bai knew that Haiqing was a true night owl. By now, he had probably finished organizing the list of things he had mentioned.

As expected, the moment Mu Bai logged into QQ, he saw a message from Haiqing.

The message had been sent at 7 AM that morning.

Haiqing:
“Cold Hero, I’ve sorted out a list for you. The remaining ones will be ready tomorrow.”

Mu Bai quickly opened the file Haiqing had sent.

After reading for about three to four minutes, he could tell that Haiqing had put in a lot of effort. The list was organized in great detail, making it easy to understand at a glance.

[Streamer Xiaomeng]:
“Previously a member of Yuwan Alliance. She once mocked Cold Hero but now regrets it and is begging for forgiveness (Cold Hero, if you agree, just check the box in the comments).”

[Streamer White God]:
“Former top-tier Yuwan Alliance game streamer. Mocked Cold Hero last night but now seeks forgiveness. However, he has a history of scandals and should not be forgiven.”

[Tyrant Zhen Tian]:
“Previously a top benefactor in Yuwan Alliance, has since pledged allegiance to Cold Hero.”

[Rich Man Longyu]:
“A king-level tycoon on Douyu. After witnessing Cold Hero’s strength, he has now switched allegiances.”

[Maple Leaf Team]:
“A third-tier team on Douyu. Three strong Honor of Kings players with national server titles, and three Duke-level benefactors backing them. They show great potential.”

Mu Bai scanned the list, checking off the ones that seemed promising.

As for the requests to lift penalties for Yuwan Alliance streamers, he decided to wait.

He was only a few hundred points short of the 50,000 Fear Value needed to complete the task. He figured it would be best to handle that later in the evening when the task was finished.

The document had several pages, so Mu Bai took his time reading through it.

As he reviewed the details, time passed quietly.
