And what’s more important is that she still hadn’t started preparing for the reward for surpassing eight million fans.
Could the first live broadcast after the New Year possibly go smoothly?
With a resigned attitude of facing the inevitable, Tang Shu took out her phone, composed a new message, and tapped send.
[Uncle She: Live broadcast at 8 PM tonight, don’t miss out.]
The Weibo post was brief, but for the fans following Uncle She, it only took a few seconds to receive the notification.
At this time, fans who were at work were having lunch, and those in school hadn’t started class yet, and after seeing the message, they immediately flocked to the comment section.
[Wow~~~~ Uncle She rises from the dead——]
[Finally crawled out of your warm blanket? Uncle, you’re not being fair, letting us wait for so long.]
[Have never seen a broadcaster so irresponsible. If you don’t draw at least a hundred lucky fans tonight, I won’t let you off the hook!]
[emmmmm, Uncle She is finally open for business, I’ve run out of Anti-Reduction Ointment at home, may the goddess of luck bless me to be drawn tonight.]
[The guy above, how the hell did you use up the ointment so quickly, were you punished by kneeling on a washboard or a durian?]
[Pfft? Now I can vividly picture that. ]
[Get lost! You’re the one kneeling on durians! You have no idea how great my wife is, the reason I used up all the Anti-Reduction Ointment is because Uncle She’s products work too well, I couldn’t help but show off a bit...]
[Alright, we don’t need you to explain the rest, we get it, you deserved it!]
[hhhhh~~~ Serves you right +1]
The comments contained quite a few reproaches towards her, but it seemed the netizens were just talking, without taking any extreme actions.
Relatively speaking, most fans who followed Uncle She had their own opinions.
This reassured Tang Shu, and after thinking about the equipment needed for the live broadcast at home, she left school, stopped by the Porcelain Factory to buy some raw materials, and then went back to her community for some more sleep.
By eight o’clock that evening, Tang Shu had already put on her gloves and was sitting at her desk.
As the live broadcast camera turned on, a swarm of netizens rushed in, and by the time she looked up, the number of online viewers had already exceeded three million.
Ever since the last live broadcast ended, the fans had developed the habit of waiting regularly.
And three million online viewers had become the baseline number for Uncle She’s live broadcasts.
"Today’s broadcast starts now. As usual, let’s start by talking about the picture of the medicinal herbs posted today..."
The picture of the herbs and the processing video were shot while she was dealing with medicinal herbs in the old house during the New Year, and this time Xiao Li edited them, just in time to come in handy.
After several live broadcast sessions, Tang Shu had gradually formed her own logic.
Most people who watch her broadcasts fall into three categories: the first are medical practitioners interested in medicinal herbs and their processing techniques, the second are craftsmen who like making pottery, and the last ones are art students interested in painting.
For these three groups, Tang Shu divided the live broadcast into three parts, starting with an explanation of the herb science posted on Weibo, followed by a live pottery-making segment.
Lastly, came the part about painting patterns.
As she explained about the herbs, many people in the comments brought up their own doubts and suggestions.
And at that time, Tang Shu would also look up at the comments frequently, answering almost every question.
"Someone just now was asking about the efficacy issues encountered during the processing of Angelica sinensis. Next time you process it, you could try..."
