Geek Starman Qian Guang acted quickly and prepared the live broadcast in no time.
Before starting the broadcast, he checked his business cooperation email, chat software, and Pilipili backend one last time.
Zhুমeng still hadn't contacted him.
Ever since he posted the announcement about the live teardown, he had been waiting for the public relations or marketing department of Zhুমeng or Neural Roaming Company to contact him.
Previously, after he released live broadcast previews of teardowns or violent evaluations, manufacturers would often contact him with reasons such as "Thank you for providing product exposure opportunities" or "Providing assistance for evaluation work."
Qian Guang was waiting for Zhুমeng's reaction to decide on the tone of the teardown live broadcast.
The same product, different ways of disassembling it, and different descriptions can all affect the audience's impression of the product.
He was very familiar with this.
But as time passed, neither Zhুমeng nor Neural Roaming paid any attention to him.
"Do they really not care at all?" Qian Guang shook his head, somewhat disappointed.
"It's good if they don't care, so I don't have to worry about this or that when disassembling it, and the live broadcast will be easier."
He took one last look at the camera position and officially started the live broadcast.
"Good morning, family members!" Qian Guang entered Geek Starman mode and greeted the audience enthusiastically.
"Everyone must have been waiting anxiously, right?"
"To be honest, I'm also very anxious!"
"But let's wait a few more minutes to get more people in the live broadcast room."
"Otherwise, if the main force hasn't arrived yet and we've already finished disassembling it, that wouldn't be good!"
"Let's unbox it first."
He slowly unpacked the express box, took out the shock-absorbing foam, and held up the hard packaging box.
Then he carefully tore off the transparent film bit by bit, and after tearing it off, he carefully sorted it out and threw it into the trash can before he was willing to open the packaging box, revealing the motion-sensing synchronization suit inside that looked like a superhero battle suit.
These careful actions were not because he particularly cared about this motion-sensing suit, but to delay time.
But no matter how meticulous he was, how long could two packages take to unpack?
In less than 5 minutes, a folded motion-sensing synchronization suit and a pair of haptic gloves were placed in front of the camera.
At this time, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room was —
[2317]
"?" Geek Starman blinked and froze in front of the camera.
What's going on?
He looked at the total number of followers on his account in disbelief:
[ million]
With this amount of followers, even if he didn't post a live broadcast preview, tens of thousands of people could easily enter the live broadcast room.
With the hot topic of disassembling black technology products, his psychological goal was 200,000 simultaneous viewers!
But now…
"2300?"
"No! 2200???"
In the instant he was stunned, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room dropped to 2253, but immediately rose to 2400… and then dropped back to 2300…
The data jumped up and down, almost suffocating Qian Guang.
"I'm being traffic limited."
This time it wasn't a question, he was very sure.
Even if the Geek Starman account was down on its luck, it wouldn't have fallen to this point.
'So Zhুমeng didn't contact me, but contacted P station to suppress my popularity?'
The moment this thought appeared, Qian Guang felt a strong sense of injustice in his heart!
He put down the teardown and changed the subject, saying:
"Viewers, take a look at the number of people in my live broadcast room."
"It's less than one-twentieth of what it normally is!"
"Take a look at this."
He took out his phone and showed the audience the number of reservations for the live broadcast preview, which was only 1382 people.
"Did you all see this post?"
The netizens responded one after another, some saying they saw it, and some saying they didn't.
"So, the matter is very clear! I'm being traffic limited by the platform!"
"P station wouldn't limit traffic for no reason, it must be Zhুমeng who did it."
"Why would they do this?"
"Remember what I said before? Zhুমeng's things are sold so cheaply, either they are cutting corners and using inferior materials, or they are doing a loss-making business."
"I thought it was the latter at the time."
"But now it seems that it's probably not like that!"
"The products they mass-produce are very likely to use cheap, low-grade materials to pass off inferior goods as superior ones and deceive consumers, so they are afraid of me doing a live teardown!"
Geek Starman (believed he) had discovered Zhুমeng's weakness and made a righteous judgment.
A large number of question mark comments immediately popped up in the live broadcast room.
With this anger, Qian Guang solemnly announced: "Did you think I would give up the live broadcast because of this?"
"You've misjudged me! Now I will expose your true colors in front of everyone!"
He picked up the scissors he had prepared in advance and cut a huge opening along the data chain interface of the motion-sensing synchronization suit.
Then, along this opening, he peeled off the outer mesh structure, revealing the internal vibration units, which were of different sizes, densely packed, but arranged regularly, with neat lines, and pleasing to the eye at a glance.
Seeing this complex internal structure, Geek Starman was silent for a moment.
The question marks that kept popping up in the live broadcast room also turned into a neat row of exclamation marks.
Industrial aesthetics are different from artistic aesthetics, it is a more objective, and often more direct thing.
Just like at this moment, the precise arrangement of components immediately brought a strong visual impact.
Everyone couldn't understand it.
But everyone could feel that it was high-end.
Geek Starman was also like this — with this quality, it didn't look like a low-end product at all…
He changed to a small screwdriver and tweezers unwillingly, took off one of the vibration units, held it in front of his face and observed it carefully, trying to find some flaws.
But he couldn't find it.
So he had no choice but to continue dismantling it.
He disassembled the vibration unit, stripped away the wires, chips, and circuit boards, extracted the flexible electrodes, and even cut open all the fabric…
Until finally, the entire set of somatosensory synchronization suit was dismantled into a pile of parts and scraps of cloth, he still couldn't find any evidence of Zhumeng using inferior products.
All the parts were brand new, the materials were top-notch, and the assembly was perfect.
There were no problems whatsoever.
Geek Xingren sat cross-legged on the floor, beginning to doubt his life:
"No, there's nothing wrong with your product. I'm dismantling it to give you publicity! Why are you suppressing my popularity?"
"Isn't this a win-win situation?"
The newest novels are first published on 69shu8!
"Are you guys out of your minds?"
Even after he finished dismantling it, the number of viewers in his live broadcast room didn't exceed 5,000.
However, with this level of popularity, external traffic finally began to flow in.
And the newcomers brought him a very bad news:
"Zhumeng is limiting the traffic of the P station review live broadcast? No way!"
"I just came from [Da Xiao Wang]'s side. They are also dismantling the machine, and their popularity is exploding. There are 100,000+ viewers in their live broadcast room, and they haven't been limited at all."
"[Technology Faction] is also reviewing haptic gloves, and they haven't been limited either."
"So… why is everyone else okay, but you're being limited? Shouldn't you look for the reason within yourself?"
"I think I understand! I suggest the streamer recall his past scandals. You should be able to find the answer from your memories."
"Good heavens, is he an officially certified reviewer with a bad record?"
"Hahaha, hilarious, trying to hammer others but hitting himself instead. Truly lifting a stone to drop it on his own feet!"
…
Under the reminder of the barrage, Geek Xingren finally belatedly went to check the live broadcast rooms of other peers.
As a result, the vast majority of reviewers—whether they were technology bloggers or digital bloggers—didn't encounter any problems.
The live broadcast process went smoothly, and they successfully ate a piece of this traffic cake.
Only a few reviewers with extremely poor reputations encountered extremely strict traffic restrictions.
And he was one of them.
"Zhumeng is targeting me! This is slander!"
Geek Xingren was of course not convinced, and posted a status demanding an explanation from Zhumeng and the Pilipili official.
But under his status, there were only large swaths of ridicule and gloating.
After he lowered the content production standards, abandoned the professional ethics that a reviewer should have, and focused on money, the disgust accumulated in the hearts of old fans and passersby finally ushered in a major outbreak today.
Netizens were all praising Zhumeng for doing a good job, only hating that he didn't die slowly enough, and no one spoke up for him at all.

In the office, Xu Meng watched this farce, feeling a little bit dumbfounded.
This matter had nothing to do with him from beginning to end—he was busy negotiating cooperation and developing things every day, so how could he have time to manage these review UP masters?
But he probably knew what was going on:
The first new type of military exercise fully equipped with somatosensory synchronization suits was about to begin, and soldiers wearing lightweight somatosensory synchronization suits also appeared in pre-exercise television interviews.
Because it was just a small-scale confrontation exercise, people who didn't pay attention to the military didn't notice it.
—Xu Meng only noticed it because of the existence of the "Outsourcing Group".
But Yin Zhiyuan specifically sent the relevant reports to Pilipili through the Ningzhou Garrison District channel.
No documents, no requests, and no suggestions.
Just a simple channel, plus a report, directly caused Pilipili to limit the traffic of all review bloggers with bad reputations.
Xu Meng shook his head, too lazy to continue watching Geek Xingren's antics.
—He hadn't realized that the main force attacking him was the platform. If he continued like this, let alone live broadcast traffic restrictions, his status would also be folded.
If he continued to be obsessed, his account might be gone.
For this kind of blogger with a buttload of black history, blocking them is just a casual matter, with almost no adverse effects.
Xu Meng jumped back and forth between the live broadcast rooms of technology bloggers and digital bloggers, and soon discovered a situation:
Other products have UP master reviews, but the war simulator is the only one that doesn't.
This made him a little confused: The simulators were all booked, and with the help of Yuanyang Group's freight system, many should have been sent out by now.
But why hasn't anyone reviewed it?
He didn't even see any players showing it off live.
What's the situation?
This is also the question of many netizens now.
Everyone doesn't know how many devices are in the Neuro-Roaming warehouse, and they don't know that there are only 200,000 sets of war simulators, which is just a fraction of the somatosensory suits and VR glasses.
They only know that they are all sold out, so they think that the simulators should also be selling like crazy.
So they are all confused and asking everywhere:
"Why hasn't anyone reviewed the simulator?"
"There are no videos either. If you search for tank simulator, the most popular one is still the one Sniping Jishou posted the day before yesterday."
"I went to ask those bloggers, and they all said they didn't buy it."
"Then who exactly is buying it!?"
…
The players were very puzzled, and some even ran to Yingyong Sniping Jishou to ask him to inquire with the people from Zhumeng.
But Yingyong Sniping Jishou had no intention of paying attention to this at all.
Because the Demo of "War of Kings" was finally updated.
And the size of the update was extremely outrageous—
"What the f*ck!"
"The Demo is 50 G in total, and now an update patch is 25 G??"
"Zhumeng! What are you trying to stuff into my computer!?"
Asking for monthly tickets!
