Live-streaming counterfeit dollars? Streamer, you're really asking for prison time! - Chapter 08
Chapter 8: When the Lights Are Off, Are They All the Same?
This viewer [dadada] had been persistently requesting to connect via microphone.
Ye Chen checked the guy’s transaction page and discovered this « big brother » had purchased a whopping 50 checks—all self-made.
Every check was left blank without any amount filled in.
However, each one bore both a stamp and the Pan Am logo.
The most crucial point is—how could Pan Am, the most badass airline in all of Amerrica, go over a decade without updating its check system?!
[Little Punk]: « Anchor, what are you waiting for? Get on the call! »
【Little Flying Fairy】: « Anchor, this big bro seems about to put on a show too. Keep it up, if we’re entertained, we’ll send you gifts! »
« Sunny White Horse »: « You do it, I do it, the host celebrates New Year behind bars, happy, let’s connect, host! »
« Little White Bird »: « Host, you hit the jackpot! The checks you made are still being used in America! »
« …… »
The viewers were clamoring for Ye Chen to connect on mic, curious to see if this [dadada] viewer would bring some entertainment.
Many viewers who purchased the streamer’s artwork would come online to connect on mic and give real-time feedback.
Of course, there were also quite a few like that earlier viewer who burned counterfeit money at ancestral graves.
Brothers, I feel a chill running down the back of my neck!
Maybe we shouldn’t do the live call today!
Otherwise, we might end up spending next New Year’s Eve behind bars—that would be too miserable!
Ye Chen already sensed something was off—this call absolutely couldn’t happen!
If this guy starts pulling stunts, I might actually end up in jail.
High popularity is certainly good.
But the popularity was too high, and once various departments took notice.
Maybe they really will drag me in for a cup of tea.
« Little Punk »: « Host, if you go live, I’ll send you a wish gift! »
【Little Bird】: « Host, I want to see you connect with others! If you do, I’ll send you a Wish Gift! »
« …… »
Many viewers were making similar comments!
This included viewers who had previously sent Wish Gifts to Ye Chen, all voicing the same request.
Watching this unfold, Ye Chen pursed his lips slightly. Each Wish Gift was guaranteed to generate at least 10,000 emotional value points.
Then you could exchange it for a Qianlong-era porcelain piece worth two to three hundred thousand yuan.
Besides, this connected viewer might not actually be pulling a prank.
Money is still quite alluring.
The next moment, Ye Chen decisively clicked to connect the call. If there’s money to be made, then the call must be connected.
Moreover, the emotional value points are already securely in hand. Even if he gets invited for tea, as long as he comes out, he can still exchange them for antiques to sell.
[Dadada] The viewer successfully connected the call. He was a middle-aged white guy who pointed his camera at his desk.
There were two old checks on the table.
And about a dozen brand-new checks!
All of them were Pan Am checks.
The connected viewer explained that the old checks were obtained through legitimate channels.
As for the brand-new checks, they were purchased from Ye Chen.
After about ten days, the checks crossed the oceans and arrived.
These checks could be normally cashed at banks as long as the amount wasn’t too high, and could also be exchanged at places like hospitals and restaurants!
They were essentially an alternative form of paper currency, widely accepted by everyone.
Now, he’s going to give it a try.
【dadada】: « Host, the checks you made are really nice! »
Now, I’m going to cash them at the bank!
We’ll stay connected on mic the whole time!
And what’s more, I’ve had my eye on that female bank teller for a while now—she’s a Black girl!
Too bad she’s almost 300 pounds, like a bowling ball that gained sentience, but no worries!
I know she likes me too. Just wait and see my performance later!
???
A middle-aged white dude using my counterfeit checks to scam a Black woman?
Since when have Black women become so sought after these days?
Or does this old-timer just have… unconventional tastes?
Or perhaps, does it all look the same in the dark?
Bro, don’t mess around with that—it’s a bank. If you get caught, there’s no running away.
Bro, listen to me—don’t! Don’t! Don’t!
Ye Chen quickly curled up and said.
If this gets exposed, they won’t be able to catch me.
I’m not in America, but my kind-hearted water friend here would be in deep trouble.
American prisons are pretty dark, bro might be forced to pick up the soap.
The connected water friend said that wouldn’t happen.
Then, he personally drove to a small bank.
He slipped his phone into his suit pocket, ensuring the camera was pointed forward, and entered the bank.
What greeted him was a Black woman wearing an oversized bank teller uniform.
She looked like a real-life Kirby from the anime world—a true rarity in this realm!
The black pearl’s eyes lit up when she saw the connected fan.
It was clear she really liked this particular viewer who’d joined the stream.
Only, earlier the viewer hadn’t paid her any attention.
Now, the connected fan approached the counter and handed the check to the black pearl!
This check was made by Ye Chen, who wrote $6,000 on it.
Black Pearl took the check and was about to inspect it when her hand was grasped by the connected viewer.
« Darling, I really miss you so much! »
« Before, I didn’t get my paycheck, so I was too embarrassed to come see you! »
« Now, I get my paycheck, I’m a ground crew member for Pan Am. Can you give me a chance to talk privately? »
The connected fan spoke in English with deep affection, saying that outside, identity is what you give yourself, but in reality, he was just an unemployed drifter.
The nearly three-hundred-pound Black Pearl suddenly teared up, convinced she had found true love.
Now, a request from true love!
How could she refuse?
She pulled her live-streaming companion into the bank lounge, leaving just the two of them alone.
The connected viewer spouted a stream of sweet nothings, fully showcasing his sleazy middle-aged white dude player vibes.
Finally, his hand was already resting on the dark-skinned beauty’s neck.
What happened next left the entire audience utterly dumbfounded.
Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit?
Damn, that’s insane!
Bro, you even sacrificed yourself just to cash that check?
Bro, she’s almost 300 pounds!
Ye Chen exclaimed repeatedly in shock.
Of course, his intention was to remind Black Pearl not to be fooled.
As it turned out, the connected viewer must have muted the sound when joining.
Ye Chen’s voice couldn’t be heard by this Black Pearl!
Then, three minutes of intense scenes passed.
[Little Gangster]: « Holy shit, streamer, you’ve got so many thrilling scenes! »
[Little Flying Hero]: « Streamer, are you the admin’s dad or something? How come you’re not getting banned! »
【Sunny White Horse】: « Damn, straight up switched to the European/American section now. Absolute madlad! »
« …… »
The live chat viewers were stunned—the viewer count was skyrocketing!
Within moments, the audience had reached thirty thousand people!
Ye Chen checked the emotional value meter—it had surged by three thousand points.
Although it’s great, but I don’t do adult content livestreams!
Damn it, you old white dude!
Thank goodness for the livestream system!
The DouTian platform can’t control Ye Chen!
As long as Ye Chen doesn’t want to end the stream, the live broadcast room can never be shut down!
Otherwise, this scene would be enough to get Ye Chen a ‘permanent ban’!
After connecting with the fan, he hugged the Black Pearl and said, « Baby, I love you. Let’s go on a date tonight. First, help me cash this check! »
The still emotional Black Pearl wiped her tears, finally feeling she had met true love.
She took the check and led the connected fan to the counter, cashing it into dollars without any inspection.
Just went through something like that!
Emotions running high!
Now with a boyfriend again.
How could she possibly keep her cool and carefully examine the check!
And just like that, $6,000—a thick stack of cash—was placed in the hands of the connected viewer.
After exiting the bank, the connected viewer said very seriously, « Streamer, how about me? Handsome or not? »
I learned from the previous viewers’ mistakes and took the initiative to sell my charm to attract the Black Pearl’s attention!
This time, I succeeded. Cool or what!!!
Dear viewers, feel free to learn from me. I can be your mentor!
Ye Chen was instantly dumbfounded. « Brothers, don’t you dare learn from him! »
