Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 652: Chapter 671: Jiang Qiuqiu - Sunday King

It was the weekend again.

Weekends were now the liveliest time in Jiang Qiuqiu’s food circle.

Like a roll call, all the familiar faces would start trickling into the circle before five o’clock.

[I’m back! Is everyone camping out in front of the Federation... oh wait, no, the New Star app again?]

[Juju was on the Federation’s stream for so long, I almost had a slip of the tongue.]

[I wonder if New Star fixed the black screen issue from last week? If they haven’t, I’m gonna—]

[—start a crowdfunding campaign in the circle to beg Juju to just solve the problem, wipe her hands of it, and leave.]

[If I get through, but there’s no taste again, I swear I’m going to collapse on the floor, gasping for air, and make the new boss of this app kneel and beg me not to die of rage. Then I’ll get him on the negative headlines.]

[Pfft...]

[Hahahaha, so many talented people these days. I’ve really seen it all!]

[Okay, if my screen goes black, I’m collapsing on the spot too. Let’s get this app on the evening news!]

[A little birdie told me they got a new Main Brain over there. It probably won’t go black this time!]

[Really?]

A flurry of curious questions followed. The person who broke the news sounded completely certain, and besides, Mei Lin had previously shown off that she had joined as a new shareholder.

The Duke’s daughter, a real socialite!

With someone of her status backing them, it couldn’t possibly keep lagging, right?

Suddenly, the wait was filled with hope again.

Everyone then started excitedly discussing what dishes there might be. As the conversation went on, some people who were "eating substitutes" started to appear in the crowd.

[Why even bother going to that other app when it’s so bad? I think staying on the Federation’s platform is pretty good, too. Even though no one’s food is as delicious as Juju’s, there are... lots of other food streamers here. You can find whatever you want to eat.]

[And most importantly, you don’t have to wait for a specific day. There’s no need for everyone to be so divided. We can still go to New Star on the weekends and watch other food streamers on the Federation’s platform during the week. Like the new chef, Master Huang. I think he’s pretty good. Hehe.]

[You mean the one from the revolving restaurant? His cooking is decent. Getting to eat from a revolving restaurant at a cheap price is such a good deal.]

The topic was being subtly led astray.

Some fans had previously called out these people, saying it was rude to constantly bring up others in Juju’s food circle. But as soon as they said it, even more people would swarm them, arguing, "What, is this a dictatorship?" When the fans asked them to post about it in the general food community instead, they were shot back with, "So what? We can’t post it here?"

Seeing that things were about to blow up, the fan leader from the main fan group finally stepped in to control the narrative.

Lately, Juju had been a regular on the trending lists, frequently appearing in the public eye due to various disputes. This was not a good thing.

’If others want to talk, just let them talk.’

’If no one responds, these kinds of posts will naturally die out.’

Later on, the comments from people who were clearly not fans gradually decreased. Instead, another type of post became more common: recommendations for food streamers who also streamed on days other than Saturday.

Many of these comments recommended the group of chefs who had appeared with Jiang Qiuqiu at the annual gala. The tone of the recommendations seemed casual enough, but as more and more people posted them, always with precise names and IDs, the admins started to sense something was off.

This wasn’t organic promotion; it was a stream guided by a hidden hand.

But what if it was being manipulated? Juju only streamed on weekends. For the vast majority of her fans, from Monday to Saturday, they were hungry, they were craving, and they just wanted to eat.

So, this was also why the New Star app was on shaky ground.

The massive leap in downloads had brought mostly "follower fans." What did that mean? It meant that most of these people had been brought over by the streamer. They were here entirely because of her, and New Star wasn’t the only streaming app on their devices.

Moreover, when Juju wasn’t streaming, most of these follower fans were still on the Federation’s streaming platform.

But that was okay.

’It’s just a fight for a piece of the market pie! We at New Star aren’t scared!’

At five in the afternoon, the spring sunset’s glow faded from the horizon.

Jiang Qiuqiu punctually turned on her streaming equipment. A Level 7 Main Brain and a Level 7 Mechanical Brain, along with a Level 6, made for a truly smooth experience.

The camera drone turned on, and she smiled as she greeted everyone. "Welcome to my food stream! It’s been another week. Today, I’m going to show you a simple and refreshing dish that you can enjoy for a long time."

"It’s perfect with pan-fried meat, as it’s great for cutting through the grease, and it’s also perfect for this season!"

The bullet comments flooded the screen.

No matter what comments were made in the circle, no matter the disputes, nobody cared about what happened from Monday to Saturday.

But on Sundays, in the world of interstellar food streaming, Juju was the one and only queen.

At this time, none of the food streamers on the Federation’s rival app would even dare to go live!
