177: An ordinary outdoor live stream
Zzzzzzz, zzzzzzzzz.
The lightning icon on the small screen flickered a few more times before automatically disappearing.
However, the Horse-Face Masked Man lying on the ground wasn't so lucky.
Hit unprepared by the taser, his muscles instantly tightened, and his entire body began to convulse uncontrollably, unable to even let out a scream.
The earth fire gun (shotgun) in his hand had already been thrown aside.
Everything happened so fast, catching everyone off guard. As a result, no one on the scene reacted for three seconds after the Horse-Face Masked Man was paralyzed by the electric shock.
It wasn't until Su Yu cautiously poked his head out from behind the sofa again, saw the fallen gangster, and shouted loudly.
"What are you all still staring at? Hurry up and hold him down!"
"The self-defense taser on the air umbrella isn't very powerful; he'll regain his mobility in ten seconds!"
Hearing this.
The men closest to the gangster were immediately encouraged. They exchanged glances and, without hesitation, swarmed forward.
The fatal threat of the earth fire gun (shotgun) had disappeared.
They were now numerous and united; subduing an unarmed gangster was naturally not a problem!
Everyone wanted to be a hero.
However, they were previously afraid of the earth fire gun (shotgun) in the gangster's hand and dared not act rashly.
Now, with the gangster lying on the ground unable to move, it was their best chance to show off!
A middle-aged uncle in his forties came before the gangster, directly performed a reverse hold, and pinned him firmly to the ground.
Perhaps due to excitement or fear, he used too much force, causing the gangster to wince in pain and almost dislocating his arm.
The other men who rushed up were not to be outdone.
A 300-pound Fat uncle sat on the Horse-Face Masked Man, pressing him down like Mount Tai, rendering the gangster immobile.
The bespectacled refined man also seized the opportunity to unbuckle his belt, skillfully tying the gangster's feet and hands securely.
The fifty-something-year-old grandpa, leaning on a cane, tottered over to the earth fire gun (shotgun) and picked it up, ensuring it wouldn't be taken by anyone with ill intentions.
As for the remaining people, after seeing the crisis resolved, they slowly emerged from their hiding places.
When the three masked gangsters were successfully subdued, tied up, and thrown in a heap, the sound of police sirens echoed in the pouring rain from a distant street.
On the scene, someone, nobody knew who, was the first to applaud.
Immediately after the first clap, the applause ignited the entire venue like a spark that could start a prairie fire!
Amidst the thunderous applause, countless praises also rang in Su Yu's ears.
"Well done!!!"
"Great job, Young man!"
"Young man, if it weren't for you, it's hard to imagine what kind of treatment we would have suffered today."
"You single-handedly dealt with three masked gunmen! Young man, you are simply a hero to all of us!!"
"Hero! Hero! Hero!!"
"Heaven bless, may good people live a life of peace."
...In the Streamer's live broadcast room.
No one expected that what was originally just a very ordinary outdoor live broadcast would, by a strange coincidence, evolve into what it is today.
Live broadcasting masked robbers robbing a bank, this is probably the first time in history!
Before the police even arrived, the Streamer single-handedly successfully dealt with three armed robbers; this plot would be magical enough even in TV dramas and movies.
In China, it is probably unprecedented and will never be seen again, except in Su Yu's live broadcast room.
At this moment, the number of online viewers in Su Yu's live broadcast room had unknowingly exceeded six million!
This had also successfully broken the record for the most online viewers in a single live broadcast room since the Kuaishou software was launched.
At this moment, the hearts of all the people who were following this live broadcast also settled down.
Countless gifts floated across the screen, and even with simplified mode on, the overwhelming barrage of comments still filled the entire interface.
"Oh my god, this is absolutely the most exciting live broadcast I've ever watched!"
"The Streamer is simply amazing, saving everyone's lives all by himself!"
"It's hard to imagine how many more people would have died if Brother Su hadn't happened to be at the robbery scene with the air umbrella."
"Thank you, Streamer!!! My mother was just withdrawing money at the bank! If the Streamer hadn't dealt with the three masked gangsters, I wouldn't dare to imagine what would have happened next."
"As expected of the positive energy Streamer I follow! The Streamer deserves to be wildly popular!"
...Dami Technology new product launch conference.
Lei Jun and the staff on site, having recovered their senses, were like people who had just watched a thrilling crime movie, still savoring the experience, and had long since thrown the scheduled time of the conference out of their minds.
It wasn't until someone suddenly came to their senses that their expression changed drastically.
"Mr. Lei! This is bad! Our new product launch conference!!"
Lei Jun: !!!
Director Liu: !!!
Everyone had been so engrossed in watching the live broadcast just now that they only realized, upon coming to their senses, that more than ten minutes had already passed since the start time of the conference.
This was a serious incident that had never happened since Dami Technology was founded.
"Mr. Lei, should we still continue with our conference?"
"Just now, according to reports from online statisticians, 80% of the audience who had pre-booked to watch the live broadcast have already left. Even if we start now, and some popularity can be regained, it won't be as good as before."
It should be known that the popularity of a new product launch conference actually greatly affects Brand reference, likely Xiaomi Company's subsequent promotion and sales of the product.
Now that nearly 80% of the popularity has been lost, even Lei Jun felt a headache.
However, if today's conference were canceled and rescheduled, perhaps the number of online viewers would recover somewhat when it was held again later.
But this would also cause irreparable serious damage to Dami Technology's official image, and even lower the credibility and reputation of Brand reference, likely Xiaomi Company among most people.
"There's one more thing, Mr. Lei."
"The first new product we're showcasing is the mi smart umbrella, which you personally selected, but in the live broadcast room just now, that Streamer's multi-functional air umbrella..."
Lei Jun understood his subordinate's meaning even before he finished speaking.
Yes, the multi-functional air umbrella, the mi smart umbrella!
Initially, this online conference was meant to be a technological clash between two umbrella products, but now, it seems, continuing the comparison has lost its meaning.
Without a doubt.
After this incident, the mi smart umbrella will forever be overshadowed by the multi-functional air umbrella, whether in terms of reputation! Recognition! Or technological sophistication!
Lei Jun looked at the Young man in front of the camera with a wry smile, shaking his head helplessly.
Indeed, as the saying goes, the waves behind push the waves ahead, and the waves ahead die on the beach.
This time, he had already lost completely before even starting.
