Chapter 1344 How is it that Old Qiao's Weakness Gets Weaker the More He Tries to Strengthen It?

Saturday, December 1st.

Another pleasant weekend.

Pei Qian woke up naturally, then got up, ate breakfast, and pondered how he should arrange this wonderful holiday.

The World Championships for both GoG and IoI were still underway, but there were no matches at this time. The earliest would be in the afternoon.

So, how to spend this morning was the question.

Pei Qian thought about it, and it seemed that there weren't any particular games he wanted to play right now.

So, he silently opened the Aili Island website and refreshed the feed.

The refresh gave him a jolt. Old Qiao's account had actually posted a new update!

Pei Qian felt a sudden twinge of anxiety, thinking, Old Qiao, you wouldn't be able to stir up trouble for me even during your Suffering Trip, would you?

Did he edit a video on his phone? Or did he schedule something he had saved from before?

If you keep this up, I'm going to have to keep raising your threat level in my little notebook!

If the Suffering Trip isn't enough to satisfy you, then I'll just have to find a way to develop other, more exciting projects!

Considering that the roller coaster project at Thriller Paradise was almost complete, and that he could build even larger-scale "Wonders" next, Pei Qian didn't mind expanding Thriller Paradise and creating a "Ultimate Ultimate Horror" based on the "Ultimate Horror" project to optimize Old Qiao's experience.

But when he clicked on it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, it wasn't a new video, just a simple text update.

"Don't rush me, viewers! Streaming today! Same place."

The text update was posted at 7:00 AM this morning.

Pei Qian looked at his watch, and it was already past nine.

Logically speaking, the stream should have already started, right?

But where exactly was he streaming? Old Qiao's streaming avatar on the Aili Island website wasn't lit up.

He clicked on the replies below the text update and found the location of the stream, following the comments of Old Qiao's fans.

"Finally streaming? Great, I thought Old Qiao was going to ditch us!"

"The Suffering Trip has been going on for almost a week, right? Why only start streaming now, what are you up to?"

"Yeah, why didn't you show us the most painful days? Are you treating us like outsiders? Unfollowed!"

"So, where is he streaming? Not on Aili Island."

"New viewer? Doesn't even know where Old Qiao's stream is?"

"We can't mention the name of the enemy platform, just know that it's the most maverick platform."

"Oh! I get it, it's the one where you have to study for an hour and can seamlessly transition to GoG matches, right?"

The Aili Island website also had its own streaming business, but its size was still far behind that of Wolf Fang Streaming and was still in the stage of self-entertainment.

Old Qiao spent most of his time streaming on Tuwei Streaming.

Of course, given Qiao Liang's popularity, he could have gotten a good streaming contract if he went to platforms like Wolf Fang Streaming, but Qiao Liang didn't go.

Because he was a lazy dog.

Signing a big contract meant that he had to guarantee streaming hours, and every now and then he might have to do PK battles, climb the rankings, and ask for gifts. Old Qiao thought it was too tiring.

In his heart, he still regarded himself as a video creator, an up, making videos was his main job.

The efficiency of making videos was already being criticized by fans as a pigeon, if he diverted a lot of energy because of streaming, then how would that be? He would have even less time to make videos!

It was easy to sign a contract, but what if he didn't meet the streaming hours, and his salary was deducted, and he had to pay a high penalty to change platforms? Wouldn't that be awkward?

So, Qiao Liang thought it was good to stream on Tuwei Streaming.

Moreover, the atmosphere of Tuwei Streaming was quite good, with significantly fewer trolls.

Perhaps it was because the people who could watch the stream were those who had endured the one-hour learning test, and were not so impetuous, so their barrage comments were particularly polite.

Of course, there was also a more important point, which was that Tuwei Streaming did not bind streamers. Old Qiao could just stream casually, collect some gifts, and leave whenever he wanted without any burden.

Pei Qian didn't know the whole story of why Old Qiao chose Tuwei Streaming, but he found it very puzzling.

I've already turned Tuwei Streaming into this, and you still want to stream here?

Is there something wrong with Tuwei Streaming, or is there something wrong with you?

Fine, if you insist on streaming here, I can't stop you, I can only tell Bao Xu to give you and Chen Yufeng more training.

Pei Qian silently opened Tuwei Streaming, wanting to find Old Qiao's stream, but found that he had to study in learning mode or focus mode for an hour before he could watch the stream.

"Damn it!"

Pei Qian was speechless. What did it mean to shoot yourself in the foot?

There was no way around it, he would have to honestly watch an hour of learning videos.

In fact, as the boss, Pei Qian could have asked Tuwei Streaming to give him a back door and skip the one-hour limit, but he didn't do so.

Mainly because it would be difficult to convince everyone.

He was the one who proposed the one-hour limit, and now he wanted to bypass it, which was a bit inappropriate.

As the saying goes, the emperor should be punished the same as the common people if he breaks the law. Pei Zong had to abide by the rules he set himself, otherwise wouldn't it be a mess?

Fortunately, an hour of study time was actually acceptable. Now, many big shots on Tuwei Streaming would post videos or live recordings of news, current affairs, finance, historical stories, and professional knowledge in various fields, which were also considered content in the learning zone.

These videos were basically between 20 and 30 minutes long, so watching two or three videos would be enough time.

Pei Qian flipped through them casually and found that the learning zone content on Tuwei Streaming was really diverse. There was even a lot of content about car knowledge, such as driving skills, vehicle maintenance, and car reviews. There were even some car critics who had joined, but the views weren't very good.

Pei Qian wasn't very interested in this and didn't pay much attention to it. He found a video about finance and watched it, quickly making up an hour.

When he saw the countdown end and the live streaming zone unlocked, Pei Qian inexplicably felt a sense of liberation.

This feeling was a bit like how elementary school students felt when they finally finished their homework and could play happily.

Pei Qian immediately locked onto Qiao Liang's stream.

The stream's popularity was quite high, obviously not only had Old Qiao's fans come, but many viewers of Tuwei Streaming had also been attracted!

After all, it was a weekend morning, the matches wouldn't start until the afternoon, and there wasn't anything particularly interesting content on the platform. Old Qiao's stream could be considered unique.

They could see Old Qiao suffering with other big shots, and they could also unveil the mystery of the Suffering Trip. Such a good thing was free to watch, who could resist this temptation?

In the stream, Qiao Liang was filming the huge climbing wall in the training base's hall.

They saw everyone climbing up one after another, their movements clean and nimble, their skills agile.

After a week of special training, everyone's physical fitness could not be greatly improved in the short term, but their climbing skills had improved a lot.

In fact, rock climbing didn't rely entirely on physical strength, it relied a lot on technique. The employees of Tengda had always been in good physical condition due to their year-round fitness, and now they had professional guidance, so they improved quickly.

Only Qiao Liang, the gap between him and everyone else was getting wider and wider...

The barrage comments in the stream were basically polarized.

One group of people was saying, "Wow, everyone is so good at climbing, didn't they say that most of the people in this training camp are Tengda employees? They're all so deeply hidden?"

Another group of people was saying, "It doesn't look that difficult, they're not required to climb to the top, isn't it easy to climb such a short distance?"

After all, most people hadn't been exposed to rock climbing in real life, so they didn't have a clear idea of the specific difficulty of rock climbing, either thinking it was too difficult or thinking it was too easy.

Bao Xu stood by and supervised, like an impartial and ruthless evil overseer.

"Qiao Liang, it's your turn!"

Qiao Liang reluctantly stood up from the ground and handed the filming equipment to Bao Xu.

Bao Xu smiled slightly and reached out to take it.

Qiao Liang came to the tallest artificial rock wall and sighed silently.

After climbing the introductory climbing wall on the first day, he was the only one who didn't finish, a definite weakness in the team.

Then Bao Xu said that he would definitely do special training for him so that he could catch up with the main force as soon as possible.

But it was completely useless!

He did improve, but others improved even faster, where could he go to complain?

Seeing that everyone was improving so quickly, the difficulty of the training naturally had to be increased, and in a week's time, it had already been increased to this tallest imitation natural artificial rock wall.

Of course, everyone couldn't climb to the very top in one go, but at this rate, climbing to the top was only a matter of time.

On the other hand, Qiao Liang hadn't even mastered the other climbing walls yet, and he had to grit his teeth and climb this tallest one.

In fact, according to Bao Xu and Sa Ziran, Qiao Liang was allowed not to climb this tallest artificial rock wall, and could continue to practice on the other climbing walls first, and it didn't matter when he was ready to climb it.

But Qiao Liang resolutely rejected this suggestion.

There was no way around it, he was also a person who cared about face.

It was like going to the swimming pool, everyone else was happily swimming in the deep end, but you were still dawdling in the children's area. Could anyone bear this humiliation?

What's more, he had to stream it live!

Old Qiao couldn't afford to lose face.

Of course, forcing himself to climb the tallest artificial rock wall now would indeed be embarrassing, but at least it would show that he had courage.

Since both were embarrassing, he definitely had to choose the one that was less embarrassing.

Seeing Qiao Liang start to climb clumsily, the barrage comments unified and normalized.

"Ah, so this is the real situation of rock climbing for ordinary people? Never mind!"

"I feel like this Suffering Trip is a bit strange, why does it seem like only Old Qiao is suffering? Everyone else is adapting quite quickly?"

"Not necessarily, although others are adapting quickly, their expressions clearly show that they are suffering. Except for Boss Ruan and Yao Bo who seem to be enjoying it, others have only physically adapted to the Suffering Trip, but not psychologically..."

"This thing should be banned from streaming, right? After this stream comes out, plus the previous documentary, who will sign up to participate in the future?"

"But it's clear that it's not banned from streaming, you see the traveler Bao Xu is even actively holding the camera for Old Qiao to film? It's like he's afraid that others won't know."
