Live-streaming counterfeit dollars? Streamer, you're really asking for prison time! - Chapter 07
Chapter 7 Streamer, Pray You Don’t Get Caught, Huh!
In the live stream, thousands of viewers watched with intense excitement as Ye Chen crafted the checks.
[Little Punk]: « Streamer, this time, I kinda wanna take the checks you’re making and actually use them. »
[Swish Swish Swish]: « What if I run into some naive liberal white girl? Might actually pass as real money! »
【dadada】: « In America, using checks is a very common thing. »
【sasasa】: « Now that our foreign friend has explained the situation, this method might actually work! »
【Qin Shi Huang Reborn】: « Streamer, the world’s about to have one more rich person soon—me! »
Many viewers, seeing that America really uses these checks.
They were already fantasizing about going to America and posing as big shots with counterfeit checks!
Moreover, the « artworks » created by the streamer would often be sold.
They definitely couldn’t be used domestically.
But they could be used in America!
At that moment, I was wearing a custom-tailored suit bought with fake checks.
Driving a sports car, also purchased with fake checks.
Then, I drove that sports car right into an American university campus!
The curvaceous white homecoming queen was like a land cruiser.
She was attracted to me when she saw my sports car.
She took the initiative to show affection and had a one-night stand with me.
The next morning, I nonchalantly took out my checkbook and tore off a check for the campus belle.
Finally, I said with unmatched dominance:
Woman, here’s a check for you—fill in any amount you want.
Consider it my gift to you!
A small token for that night you spent with me.
The woman walked away gleefully clutching the check.
After all, the check is fake.
If you can pass it off—
Then congratulations on your fortune!
After all, I don’t have to pay for it.
What if there’s an issue and this check can’t be cashed?
Hehe, thanks to the campus belle for letting me freeload.
The viewers kept spamming similar comments.
Some viewers even fantasized about using this check to buy a Rolls-Royce in America.
Then shipping it back home, driving the luxury car to their hometown, and blinding the old man at the village entrance with its dazzling glory.
While the viewers were lost in their various daydreams,
Ye Chen first used professional tools to create the check’s framework, then meticulously drew all the details and patterns with specialized pens.
This step is the most difficult, as it requires using hands to carve out lines that would normally be produced by machines.
And not a single mistake is allowed!
One small error, and all previous efforts would be wasted.
However, Cheque Liu’s skills have already surpassed those of most machines.
Moreover, it was just a check, something with very low anti-counterfeiting measures.
Ye Chen effortlessly tackled the most challenging step.
She watched as the live-stream viewers were already fantasizing in the comment section.
The emotional engagement was skyrocketing!
After just over ten minutes of broadcasting, he had already gained over three thousand emotional points.
However, Ye Chen noticed the comments were taking a strange turn and quickly clarified, « Brothers, what I’m making is a Pan Am check! »
This is an older style of check. Back in the day, airline pilots often received checks as wages instead of cash.
Normally, these checks could also be issued to other people.
Because abroad, mobile payments are very troublesome. Even transferring money to a bank card requires queuing at the bank to withdraw cash!
That’s why check payments are so popular over there!
But let me say this first—this check design is over a decade old, so they probably don’t use this version anymore!
So, I’m making these purely as art pieces for sale.
【Little Punk】: « Anchor, I get it! »
【Sassy Sassy】: « If I get caught, I’ll never rat you out! »
【dadada】: « Anchor, I’m in America waiting for your new shipment. »
【awhda】: « Whether it works or not, we’ll test it out. Don’t be scared, Anchor—go all out! You’re in Dragon Country anyway, FBI can’t touch you! »
« …… »
This time, a lot of foreign netizens flooded in.
Seeing them chatting enthusiastically, Ye Chen continued making the checks!
After completing the check’s design, framework, and other elements.
He took the Pan Am logo from the soaked airplane model and stamped it onto the check.
Finally, place the check inside a thick book and press down firmly to ensure the label and the check adhere tightly together.
Two hours later.
Ye Chen picked up his phone camera and began filming the living room.
Dozens of checks were now neatly spread across the living room floor.
【Little Punk】: « Holy crap, the Check King has emerged! »
【Swift Wind】: « Host, be honest—were you a professional counterfeit check maker before? How are you so skilled at this? »
【Little White Bird】: « You’ve made dozens in just two hours! »
【Little White Bird】: « And you claim it’s your first time? Spill the truth—leniency for confession! »
« …… »
A large group of viewers were completely stunned.
They had thought—
you were going to make just one check after a day of streaming.
But turns out, you’re running a damn wholesale business?
Ye Chen felt a great sense of accomplishment as he noticed the emotional value had skyrocketed to: 33,811.
Last time, there were 24,000 emotional points left.
Today, just from the process of live-streaming the creation of checks, he had gained over 9,000 emotional points.
And that didn’t even include the conversion from various gifts or the overall summary of the live stream.
Just thinking about it, damn, I’m gonna strike it rich.
[Little Birdie]: « Streamer, people who make this kind of stuff usually keep it under wraps. You’re actually live-streaming it? Aren’t you afraid of getting caught? »
[Superman Strong]: « Streamer, you’d better pray the FBI doesn’t catch you, or they’ll fold you up like a damn lawn chair. »
Seeing the comments, Ye Chen explained with complete seriousness: « Brothers, no need to worry! »
« I’m not in America, I’m in Dragon Country! »
« Dragon Country doesn’t use this thing, according to our laws, I’m not breaking any. »
« Super Strong »: « That’s exactly why I’m telling you not to get caught by the FBI. Otherwise, they’ll beat you so badly even your own mother won’t recognize you! »
« Little Punk »: « Anchor, one, two, three, link’s up! »
[Whooshing Wind]: « Anchor, put up the link! »
[Little Windmill]: « Anchor, if you post the link, I’ll send you wish gifts, hurry! »
[Dadada]: « I want to buy too! »
Ye Chen saw the comments—wish gifts?
Last time, I gained 49,000 emotional points.
A third of that came from wish gifts alone!
What are we waiting for?
Since you brothers are so enthusiastic!
One, two, three, link’s up!
Ye Chen made a quick operation and listed the check link.
All 60 checks were snapped up the moment they were listed.
Then, a flood of viewers demanded restocking, urging the streamer to make more immediately.
【Little Punk】: « Anchor, why are you still grinning? Restock already! »
【Swift Wind】: « Good heavens, even dogs don’t rest as much as you do, anchor. Keep working! »
【Little White Bird】: « Anchor, your checks are only $20 each. Make more and earn some real money. »
Ye Chen said with a smile, « Brothers, about those wishlist gifts I mentioned earlier— »
The words hadn’t even finished falling.
[Little Windmill] decisively gifted a Frozen Tank.
A Frozen Tank worth 1388,
Right now, that means 1388 emotional points incoming!
After the live stream ends, there will be an additional 10,000 emotional value reward, plus a refund of 1,388 emotional value.
Thanks, bros!
You guys are understanding, and so am I!
Working overtime today—let’s make three to five hundred sheets so you bros can buy to your heart’s content.
Ye Chen started working overtime.
For the next three days, Ye Chen didn’t log off the stream at all.
He even kept the live broadcast running while sleeping, just turning the camera to the side.
In three days, he produced a total of fifteen hundred checks, all of which were bought by his viewers.
During this period, couriers kept coming to collect the goods.
Three nights later, after Ye Chen finished his live stream, he checked and saw that his emotional value earnings had skyrocketed to 97,000!
He had been working hard for three consecutive days!
Ye Chen took a week off and splurged with the money he earned from selling the cloisonné porcelain last time.
Seven days have passed!
At nine o’clock in the evening, Ye Chen went live again.
The audience’s enthusiasm remained as strong as ever.
【dadada】: « Host, take a look at the check you made—does it match the one I’m holding here? »
【dadada】: « I posted the picture in the comments section! »
Ye Chen carefully examined the image in the comments—wasn’t this a Pan Am Airlines check?
Did I make this?
Wait a minute, this check shows signs of aging—it’s not my handiwork.
Holy shit, America across the ocean is still using these old-fashioned checks?
Aren’t you supposed to be the beacon of the world? How come your check system is so outdated?
Before making them, I specifically chose your fifteen-year-old check designs!
Fifteen years, and you haven’t even updated them?
At this very moment, the viewer [dadada] requested to join the voice chat.
Ye Chen had a bad premonition rising from within!
