[TS] Starting the Broadcast

Chapter 63 - Best Effort



A life dedicated solely to being a pro gamer.
And after that, he went to the military and then focused entirely on the goal of winning the World Series.
Without being distracted even once, he worked hard and finally achieved victory!
After retirement, he opened a new chapter in life as a streamer.
But… until now, there has been zero romance with women in Soldier’s life.
The viewers found Soldier’s stammering reactions amusing and set various missions.
They demanded not just “oppa”, but also “honey”, “darling”, “husband”, and even “daddy”(?).

As a professional BJ blinded by points, I carried out the missions without hesitation.
Every time I did, only Soldier suffered.
Having no immunity to these situations, he doesn’t know how to react.
It shows how much he’s lived with walls up against the world.
I felt like I could understand a bit about Soldier’s true self.
Certainly, Soldier had undeniable achievements in League of Legends and was an excellent player worthy of juniors’ respect.
But outside of that, he was a complete failure.
Despite being a 2nd-year streamer, he had no connections other than past acquaintances and always streamed alone, which was telling.
“Um… first, in this situation, Aatrox uses Q first and…”
“No, Aatrox isn’t important right now.”
-ㅋ The World Series champion is a loser in another world?
-I always saw Soldier being quiet and blunt, but his stammering is hilarious ㅋ
-Suddenly feeling fond of Soldier. It’s like looking at myself in the mirror, upvote!
-More than that, don’t you see how proactive Hani is? Proactive women ㅓㅜㅑ!
The content changed on the spot.
Learning about Aatrox isn’t important right now.
I’m giving Soldier life advice.

[Reasons why Soldier has become extremely likable recently (+243)]
-For real, hearing that Soldier is a 28-year-old virgin made me extremely fond of him. Honestly, he’s a World Series champion member and has earned so much money, and on top of that, he has extensive dating experience? That’s trash balance, need to reset real life.
-At first I thought Hani was leeching, but now it’s win-win. He was completely a Twit TV outcast specialist, but recently he did a Battle Space collab with Luka, Eruru, Miyako, and Akung. This is all thanks to Hani’s life advice ㅋ
-But is Hani really 24? Looking at how she talks, she seems at least late 20s with quite a bit of life experience.
-She claims to be a 4th-year reservist, so isn’t she actually in her late 20s? ㅋ
‘I’m glad the reactions are good.’
The unexpected connection with Soldier was already three days ago.
I was a fan, but I was very surprised to learn about Soldier’s real situation.
No, at 28 years old, he’s not even going through chuunibyou… What nonsense about his World Series self being ‘real’ and his current self just a shell.
He says he doesn’t feel alive until he feels that thrill and tingling sensation that shook his whole body again?
You need to starve for about three days to come to your senses.
Listening to his story, his entire living environment was like a flower in a greenhouse.
At 28, he’s never had a part-time job and has no interest in economics, politics, or how the world works.
His life only revolves around games or streaming.
Other than that, his only concern is what to eat today?
All-boys middle school, all-boys high school, trainee… and then he debuted in the first team after coming back from the military, so his immunity to women is absolutely zero.
Anyway, returning briefly to being 28-year-old Kang-jun Lee, I gave him serious life advice.
At first, Soldier flinched at my “oppa” calls, but he seemed to feel comfortable with my straightforward attitude that wasn’t much different from a man’s, and opened up about various worries and inner thoughts.
We conducted broadcasts like that for two consecutive days, and funnily enough, we built quite a friendship.
Perhaps the core of that friendship was that we talked about various things on Discord even after turning off the broadcast.
For me, although it was different from what I imagined, it was enjoyable to have personal conversations with Soldier, who I was a fan of.
Anyway, the broadcast conducted like that was unexpectedly a huge hit.
Soldier, who already secured a high number of viewers due to his recognition as a World Series winner, now had a story and previously undisclosed personal information revealed, which became a huge topic of conversation.
On top of that, I added various broadcasting coaching.
Behind-the-scenes stories from his player days, World Series experiences, stories about players he was close with during his pro career.
Until now, Soldier would just silently play games when he turned on the stream, so the changes after my coaching worked very positively for existing viewers.

They were watching simply because of his amazing game skills, but when broadcasting entertainment was added, it naturally led to good reactions.
On top of that, when I diligently encouraged him and boosted his confidence, yesterday he conducted his first joint broadcast with people other than me.
It felt rewarding, like watching a baby bird I raised hard leaving the nest.
Actually, what’s more rewarding is the number of subscribers and points that increased over three days.
[This is a case where giving to others returns even greater. Excellent!]
“Heh! This is what I can do when I put my mind to it.”
In fact, considering when I did joint broadcasts with Lark or Clearmumu, the cost-effectiveness was too good.
Both of them prepared scripts and practiced for more than three days, had a lot of actual discussions, and put in a lot of effort, but the results didn’t come out as much as we thought.
Of course, the reactions were good, but there wasn’t an explosive power that we could clearly feel.
But this time was different.
Compared to the joint broadcasts with those two, I put in less effort, but the results were several times better.
Indeed, world-class… Is this the dignity of a League of Legends World Series champion?
Well, even so, he was just a 28-year-old virgin man who didn’t even know what the four major insurances were and was at a loss outside of games.
[Even if you’ve become close, it’s not good to talk behind someone’s back.]
“This is all an expression of familiarity. What would a loner helper who doesn’t have a single friend know!”
[……]
The helper closes its mouth at the strong fact violence that shows no mercy.
Savoring this rare victory, I checked the number of subscribers and points.
Subscribers: 59,000.
Points: 2685, replenishing the recently used 300 and even having some left over.
‘Did I upgrade the Agile Control 3 ability for nothing? No! It’s best to be certain about everything. And it will help in challenging for Master tier.’
I felt a bit of regret about the recent point usage, but there’s nothing more inefficient than lingering on past decisions.
I steel my resolve and check my future plans.
‘Achieving Master tier is a given! And I need to get more help from Soldier. Of course, I’ll help him with broadcasting too.’
The power of the celebrity buff I felt this time was too great.
It might seem cowardly, but to achieve 100,000 subscribers in a short time, it’s not the time to be picky about means and methods.
‘There’s just over 2 weeks left now. I have to do my best.’
A full cam broadcast revealing my face will be a turning point.
Many contents I’ve only planned and thought about until now will be able to be utilized from that day on.

[Broadcasting genius Hani, secret to achieving 20,000 fan club members in 3 months! (+332)]
[Wagyu enlisting on August 30th… Will Hani visit? (+322)]
[Mia’s birthday broadcast on September 9th expected to be legendary! Hani’s face reveal! (+320)]
[Hani’s consecutive legendary joint broadcasts! World-class connections? (+302)]

The connection with Soldier became a truly dreamlike opportunity.
Former pro broadcasters like ‘Redback’, ‘Time’, ‘Boom’ who still maintained friendships even after retiring as pro gamers.
While inducing joint broadcasts with them, I quietly put one foot in as well.
I felt a bit guilty for seeming to use them too much, but this is ultimately a win-win strategy.
Soldier’s broadcast, which had been stagnant for 2 years, has seen growth and change recently.
Anyway, I streamed really hard for a week.
While broadcasting with three former pros, the number of subscribers surpassed 70,000, and points hit 3025, finally achieving the first goal.
Today’s date is August 29th.
Excluding the birthday itself, there are about 11 days left including today.
“It’s probably… impossible, right?”
Even after leeching off former pros for a week, this is all I achieved.
Now Soldier’s connections are exhausted too.
Unless I do a joint broadcast with Faker, the most famous pro gamer, it seems impossible to achieve 100,000 subscribers in the remaining time.
[Your current achievements are excellent. I think it’s important to be satisfied with the present rather than pushing too hard.]
“Hmm…”
The 1400 points invested in eyes and skin before… and the first goal of 3000 points.
If I use all of this, I should be able to hear that I’m pretty among ordinary people.
But is this really the end?
Everyone dreams at least once.
If I were born again… or if some incomprehensible power worked in any situation to give me celebrity-level looks.
Am I giving up on such a sweet dream like this?
Call it greed if you like.
Even if that level of looks is enough, I’ll accept criticism saying I’m too greedy.
But this is an opportunity given to me.
Then I’ll run until my feet can no longer move… until my heart is about to burst.
To the point where I have no regrets!
From today, there are no set broadcasting hours.
I won’t hesitate even to stream 24 hours!
I also declared to Yoonjae and Yerin.
If they have any good sources or videos they’ve been saving, release them all without hesitation until Mia’s birthday.
I told them not to ask why and just follow my will this time no matter what.
“It might be better if we edit it more carefully… Ah well, if it’s the broadcasting genius Hani’s will. You must have bigger plans.”
“Unnie! Meet me before Mia’s birthday! Wish coupon! I’ll use the wish coupon I saved up!”
“Uh… sorry. I’m really busy these days. Let’s meet after Mia’s birthday.”
“Tch!”
Yerin showed signs of being slightly upset, but I soothed her well.
After that, it was a continuous stream of broadcasts, broadcasts, broadcasts.
Morning broadcast, eat, afternoon broadcast, eat… Even on days I went to exercise, I asked Myung-hoon for permission in advance and briefly turned on an exercise broadcast on my phone in the gym.
Of course, I tried my best not to show other people on screen.
The tight-fitting workout clothes that showed off my figure, which I prepared in advance, seemed to have an effect, and subscribers increased quite a bit that day.
But still around 71,000… 100,000 seemed like an impossible goal.
Days passing like that.
Now it’s September.
8 days left until Mia’s birthday.
And subscribers are at 72,437 with 3185 points.
Is this as far as I can go?
Even after working this hard?
But I won’t give up.
And heaven helps those who help themselves.
