Chapter 527 - Livestream Trap
Two hours later, outside the door of a remote and dilapidated old house in Orange County…
Three vans drove over slowly and pulled over at the entrance of the old house. A large group of people carrying cameras, light boards, and other filming equipment got out together with four fashionably dressed young men and women wearing exquisite makeup on their faces.
After seeing that everyone had arrived, Scott finally got out of a white Porsche at the side.
As soon as these young men and women saw Scott, they immediately surrounded him and said with respectful expressions, "Mr. Taylor, you're actually waiting for us here personally. We're really flattered!"
The Taylors' business in the entertainment industry was running well, and various livestreamers had become popular in recent years, so there were quite a few streamers signed with the Taylors' company.
The young men and women in front of him were the most popular streamers that the Taylors had promoted so far.
Scott smiled casually and asked, "I'm sure you all know why I've asked you to come here today, right?"
The streamers nodded hurriedly. "Yes, we all know. Everything will be done according to your instructions, Mr. Taylor!"
"Okay, that's good." Scott smiled in satisfaction and said to these streamers who were determined to make a name for themselves, "Perform well! Once today's business is done, I'll give each of you a bonus!"
The young streamers were overjoyed. "Yes, Mr. Taylor! We all have millions of fans, and the company has been actively promoting us. When the streams start later, the data will definitely soar, and the event will immediately shock everyone and grab attention!"
"That's right. You can rest assured, Mr. Taylor!"
The streamers vied to speak.
Scott nodded in satisfaction and then took the lead to walk into the old house.
This old house could probably be considered a dangerous building, as it was dilapidated and shaky. There was nothing inside except some simple wooden beds and a brick stove. It looked like a house from nearly a century ago.
Karen was standing and trembling in fear in this old house, looking at Scott anxiously.
"Later, you must perform well and act like the dog that you are in front of me. Do you hear me? If you do well, I will set you free and reward you with some money. But if you perform poorly, you'll face the same fate as that baldy yesterday! Do you hear me?" Scott walked up to her and threatened in a low voice.
Karen trembled and immediately nodded her head repeatedly. Two of her teeth had been knocked out, so air moved through her teeth when she spoke. "Yes, I understand. I will definitely do a good job!"
Scott pinched her twice unrestrainedly before turning around to yell at the people outside, "Come in!"
Soon, the group of streamers and staff carrying cameras immediately came in and started the pre-filming preparations in an orderly manner.
They set up the cameras, attached the microphones, put up the light boards, and so on. Soon, the place turned into a small shooting site.
According to their arrangement, Karen sat on a shabby wooden bed. She looked extremely miserable and out of sorts, her hair all messed up and her face bruised.
"Begin!" Someone nearby clapped the clapperboard once, and the shooting officially began.
"Dear fans and friends! Hello everyone! I'm your most adorable streamer, Little Black Cat!"
"Hello, I'm TigerWhoLovesEatingFish!"
"Long time no see my fans. I am your beloved streamer, Green Grass!"
"Hello everyone, I'm Amy. Are all my fans watching now?"
The four popular streamers appeared on their streams at the same time and greeted the viewers, immediately causing their fans to scream in a frenzy.
All the fans were ecstatic and began spamming comments.
"Ahhhhhh! My baby baby actually suddenly went live at this time! And it's together with three other major streamers. How shocking!"
"Oh my god! Little Black Cat, TigerWhoLovesEatingFish, Green Grass, and Amy have appeared at the same time. What an epic and dream collaboration!"
"Impressive! They're actually doing a stream together. The content must be really shocking. I'm already eager!"
"I'm going to call my buddy to come over. This is such a rare scene. If he's not here, he will definitely regret it!"
"Ah, me too. I have to hurry up and inform my besties so that they can hurry over to watch the four of them doing a stream together!"
...
All of a sudden, there was a huge uproar on the internet because of the four streamers, and countless people tuned in to see the stream produced by these four big names.
A few minutes later, the number of viewers of each of their streams exceeded two million, and only then did they finally introduce the content of the stream today.
"Dear viewers and fans, I'm sure you're all aware that the four of us rarely get together for a stream. But today, we're making an exception for a poor lady.
"This lady has a husband who loves her and two beautiful and gentle daughters who are both working adults. One of them has gotten married and has a child, so it can be said that this lady's life is very successful. She should soon be able to enjoy familial bliss.
"But such a happy family was soon ruined! And the person who caused it is this lady's son-in-law!
"Just over a week ago, this lady's husband unfortunately met with a car accident that left him seriously injured and unconscious. This should have been a time for the family to comfort each other and cheer each other up, but none of them expected that this lady's son-in-law would develop evil thoughts!
"In order to seize the property belonging to this lady's family, he found the opportunity to drive her out of the house and even viciously beat her up! He even threatened to break her legs if she went against his warning and revealed this matter to her daughters!
"Desperate and penniless, this lady had no choice but to end up living helplessly on the streets. She eventually found her way to this shabby place where she sought shelter to barely shield herself from the wind and rain.
"Now, let's hand over the microphone to this pitiful lady and listen to what she has to say!"
With that, the streamers handed a microphone to Karen, and at the same time, the cameras next to them all immediately panned to her.
A bruised, swollen, and almost distorted face appeared on the screens of cell phones and computers belonging to countless people.
