Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness - Chapter 310

Chapter 310: Chapter 307: This Thing Is More Useful Than Money

Bi Fang sat on the edge of the bed, feeling quite excited.

Just yesterday, he had been wondering when the System would release a task, and surprisingly, it arrived today.

Excluding the time spent recording in the Wilderness Arena, Bi Fang had been resting for over a month since before the New Year, and he felt his bones were starting to rust.

He couldn’t wait to open the task panel.

Task Name: Ruins City

Task Location: Abbascan Yeimen Region

Task Mode: Warzone Survival

Task Difficulty: S2

Task Requirement: No items may be carried except for System equipment.

Sub-task One: Establish a live broadcast, with a simultaneous long-term online audience of over one million.

Sub-task Two: Conduct a six-day wilderness live broadcast, and survive successfully.

Guaranteed Reward: Unlock a breakthrough task.

Time Limit: Fifteen days.

Ruins City?

After browsing through the entire task, Bi Fang furrowed his brows.

He didn’t like this task, not one bit.

Abbascan, one of the most chaotic countries in the world. Yeimen, a ruined city within this nation, where bandits, organizations, and armies, with their complex and intertwined forces, made it possible to be suddenly attacked just walking on the streets, with no safety to speak of.

But Bi Fang was not afraid, as he had faced life-and-death crises before. It was not fear that deterred him, it was genuine dislike.

All along, he had been an advocate of nature adventures. Although Ruins City could be considered part of the wilderness, Bi Fang didn’t like it at all.

Rainforests, forests, deserts, snow mountains – even if they appeared barren, they were all “brimming with life.”

Unique landforms and scenery, magnificent natural beauty, all sorts of animals struggling and striving hard to adapt to their environments…

Ruins City…

The only way to describe it was deathly still, devoid of any hope, because those struggling here are humans themselves, and the reason for its current state was also humans themselves.

When Bi Fang first saw this task, his inner response was one of rejection, until he saw the guaranteed reward at the end and paused for a moment.

Open a breakthrough task?

What was that?

He had never heard of it before. He had experienced several tasks before, in forests, tundras, deserts, across the whole of Europe, but what was a breakthrough task?

What was it breaking through?

The intuition of the Wilderness Master told Bi Fang that this was something important, and if he rejected it, he might very well regret it.

Accept.

Bi Fang trusted his instincts and clicked to accept.

This task was different from the previous ones. There was no issue going to France before, with Elvan providing a guarantee with his research assistant credentials, but Abbascan was too sensitive a country. Given Bi Fang’s current status, going there could lead to complications.

The task was only six days, yet the System had given fifteen days for preparations, presumably to allow time for making the necessary arrangements.

Bi Fang took out his phone and dialed a number, on the other end was a person arranged from above to be something like a handler, since his public live streams were branded, making it easier to find someone to solve any issues that arose.

“Abbascan? Mr. Bi isn’t joking, is he?”

The person in charge on the other end of the line was taken aback, even checked his ear to make sure he hadn’t misheard, and after confirming that he wasn’t mistaken and that the other party wasn’t joking, his expression turned serious.

“This is a bit of a troublesome matter.”

“That’s why I’m giving an early heads up, isn’t it?”

“A notification?”

The person in charge rubbed their brow, the other party’s words were too clear. A notification it was, not a request for approval, the desire to go was very strong.

After some thought, the person in charge nodded: “Alright then, I’ll notify the higher-ups as soon as possible, and then contact the Abbascan side. The key to this matter actually lies not with us, but with whether they agree or not. If they don’t agree, our agreement would be in vain. Mr. Bi should understand this point.”

“I know.”

Bi Fang nodded. He was, of course, aware that the approval actually depended on the will of the Abbascan side. If they said yes, then it was truly possible.

After notifying the officials, Bi Fang immediately contacted Wolf Fang, but when Assistant Liu brought up these matters, the other party seemed somewhat confused, vaguely agreeing to them.

A moment later, the phone rang again.

Wang Yongbo’s loud voice came from the other end of the phone: “Abbascan, Bi Fang, you can’t be joking, is that place even considered wilderness?”

“It is,” Bi Fang nodded earnestly.

“…”

There was a moment of silence on the other side of the phone, and then a trembling voice: “But they are at war there. Even planes dare not fly over that area!”

“Otherwise, why would I go?”

“You! Ah, it’s not the same!”

“It is the same.”

Wang Yongbo was speechless, the other party really had guts. Although he had never been to Abbascan and didn’t dare to go, he knew from movies and TV shows how terrifying that kind of place could be.

Compared with domestic environments, it was like the difference between hell and heaven.

After a long silence, Wang Yongbo finally sighed: “Do whatever you want, I realize that I’ve tried to persuade you more than once, yet to this day nothing has happened to you, while I’m nearly getting a heart attack.”

Perhaps that was the gap between an ordinary person and a legend.

After a brief warning, Wang Yongbo no longer tried to dissuade him, and instead brought up another matter, inviting Bi Fang to an award ceremony.

“An award ceremony? Wasn’t it already held?”

Bi Fang frowned, thinking that the award ceremony mentioned by Wang Yongbo was the annual meeting, inviting himself as one of the top live streamers on the platform to receive some prize money and make an appearance.

During the Wolf Fang annual meeting last month, he had been drifting at sea, naturally he didn’t go, so what was this now?

“It’s not the annual meeting. That was a month ago, how could it be the annual meeting? It’s an official commendation!”

Wang Yongbo clicked his mouse, sending a notification message to Bi Fang. It turned out to be an official invitation to Wolf Fang to participate in the Magic Capital Quality Entertainment Platform, Excellent Culture Communicator Award Ceremony and Live Observation Meeting.

Bi Fang’s name was listed there, with emphasis highlighted.

Bi Fang suddenly remembered the news he had heard a long time ago. The authorities intended to rectify the chaos in the live streaming industry, and clearly, this event was also part of the recent regulatory efforts, with both punishment and commendation, suppressing the improper and establishing the standard.

Live streaming is a form of entertainment that emerged rapidly with the internet era, growing swiftly from the moment it appeared. Within just a few years, it spawned several companies worth billions.

Rapidly growing things are often rough, like adolescent boys, still with runny noses, yet sprouting barely firm beards from their lips. Sometimes upon waking up, they’d find their pants have become shorter.

It was as if after a thunderclap at the waking of insects, various bugs began to pester humans.

One day, with a startling thunder from within, multicolored red, white, yellow, and purple sores burst forth on the face, capturing people’s attention.

Live streaming was the same; its growth was too rapid and too rough, relying entirely on market norms, and could even be described as barbaric, with frequent chaos. But this was, after all, a nascent thing. It shouldn’t be abruptly cut off but rather guided towards a healthy and positive direction.

Bi Fang’s emergence was the most powerful proof of that.

Thus, while criticizing Tiger Fang and Shark for their actions, the authorities also needed to commend exemplary platforms, setting a standard for the industry.

There was no need to say who the standard was.

Wolf Fang was selected as an excellent video platform, and they specifically mentioned Bi Fang’s presence!

Initially, when Wang Yongbo saw this notification, he almost thought he was seeing things; it was completely unexpected.

Winning an award for live streaming?

Although it was just an award with no tangible reward, it represented official recognition and encouragement, which was more effective than money.
