[TS] Starting the Broadcast

Chapter 14 - The Aftermath of the Joint Broadcast



The song was perfect without a single mistake.
It was a song practiced all day long based on the Voice Impersonation 3 and Voice Tone Diversification 2 abilities.
At first, I thought about the Digimon Adventure movie opening song, which is more popular among younger age groups, but because the vocalist was male, the tone itself was different and it required such strong volume and power that it would be difficult to attempt without song-related abilities.
Kinnikuman the 3rd’s Whirlwind Pass was also passed for similar reasons.
In the end, after trying a few times, I realized that the optimal target was naturally female or child characters with similar tones, and from then on, I selected masterpieces from their childhood that could fully stimulate the sensibilities of viewers in their 20s and 30s.
The past is beautified.
There’s a reason for the saying “nostalgia correction”.
Starting with Detective Conan’s famous lines, I sang Cardcaptor Sakura’s opening theme song and passionately performed voice impersonations of Pikachu and Team Rocket trio from Pokémon.
Especially, the art of going back and forth between Jessie and James’ male and female voices in real-time, and finishing with a shout of “I’m Meowth, that’s right!” made this no longer able to be called just the Miracle joint broadcast.
Miracle joint broadcast?
No, at least for this moment, it’s Hani’s rare skills time.
The viewer count, which had been staying around 6,000 until just now, rapidly increased after I delivered Detective Conan’s famous lines, perhaps as rumors spread, and now it had surpassed 8,000.
Glancing at the Discord chat window, everyone was repeating exclamations, becoming one of the viewers.
The helper, watching all this, was greatly satisfied and presented a special mission.

[Special Mission!]
[Many people’s attention is focused here. Reveal the splendor and mystery of the sect and attract even more people. Achieve 10,000 viewers.]
[Reward: 300 points]

‘300 points!’
The Voice Impersonation 3 ability was obtainable for fewer points than abilities like appearance or singing because of its lower versatility.
Still, after acquiring the Voice Tone Diversification 2 ability, my current points were completely depleted.
If 300 points came in here, it would be like rain in a drought.
‘Not much left.’
The current viewer count was about 8,500.
It doesn’t stop here.
I send a message to Cle-mumu asking him to play the 4th video.
Then, even louder cheers erupt than before.
Nostalgia is truly a powerful weapon.
But we can’t be tied to the past forever.
To make it approach even more intensely in contrast to that, I show the ‘present’, not the past.
2020 Season League of Legends Cinematic.
With gentle introductory music, it shows a majestic ice mountain and sturdy castle walls situated on sheer cliffs.
Then it depicts the crime city Zaun, and the chance encounter between the explorer Ezreal and Kai’Sa.
Thrilling battles and gradually rising singing voices.
Everything blends together to draw viewers in with strong immersion.
As the cinematic video ends and the screen transitions, what newly enters everyone’s view is an illustration of Lux with white clothing, a magic staff, and blonde hair.
Looking at Ezreal across from her, I open my mouth as Lux.
“Um… are we dating? We’ve barely even talked.”
The picture across changes. This time it’s Garen.
“Oho~ A sibling rivalry! This should be fun.”
A few special dialogues follow.
Then the darkened screen erases Lux and spits out Caitlyn’s illustration.
“Enemy position confirmed. Let’s meet the rifle of justice.”

-This is crazy. Starting from Conan, how many characters have there been already with this quality?
-Isn’t this person either preparing to be a voice actor or someone who’s worked in that field?
-So this is the class of New Continent TV’s rookie BJ!

Because there’s no game as popular as League of Legends, it was easy for viewers to immerse themselves.
They applaud at Kai’Sa’s lines and cheer at Ahri’s lines.
The joint broadcast, which has now surpassed 9,000 viewers, sweeps various rankings on New Continent TV.
I feel it’s time to put on a grand finale.
‘I’m confident about this song at least.’
Actually, it was a choice I hesitated about a bit.
It was a song from a work with much lower recognition compared to Detective Conan, Cardcaptor Sakura, or Pokémon that appeared earlier.
But because the song is so good, I think anyone born in the 80s or 90s must have heard it at least once.
‘I really sang it a lot when I was young because I liked it so much. I even set it as my phone ringtone.’
That’s why it’s filled with sincerity.
A song I can sing with my heart, not just imitating the original.
I hope everyone recognizes this good melody and beautiful lyrics together.
The video changes again.
An endless blue sea spreads out.
A pure white bird flies vigorously above it.
I convey my feelings in a low voice to the viewers who are listening with new expectations.
“Never forget us. Our love now… is more beautiful and precious than anything else.”
I want to be the protagonist of life.
So I say.
Please never forget me.
A message conveyed to everyone with a desperate heart.
Even the notification sounds from Discord that were ringing noisily die down.
“Don’t think you’re weak. It might be hard now… but someday, a more beautiful dream will come to you.”
Silence.
And soon, the silent outcry of viewers breaking that through the chat window.
It was the finale of the Miracle joint broadcast.

This Miracle joint broadcast created many issues.
The fact that it was a broadcast that hit 10,000 viewers for the first time in a while amidst the depressed atmosphere due to major company broadcasters’ absence.
And the fact that the existence of a new pearl buried in mud until now became widely known.
It’s a bit embarrassing to say with my own mouth, but that pearl was me.
-Room owner, please do a voice impersonation of Sergeant Keroro. Or the opening song is good too.
-Is celebrity impersonation possible too? There’s a celebrity who recently had a big hit with a catchphrase.
-Please say that line about Cle-mumu giving a strange drug one more time. ㅓㅜㅑ
-Can’t resist Cle-mumu’s strange drug ㅋㅋ

I felt a bit sorry for Cle-mumu-nim.
Since that day, Cle-mumu and strange drug became a new popular phrase in that room to tease Cle-mumu-nim.
He said it’s okay since more water balloons are bursting related to that, but…
‘Actually, the real water balloon jackpot hit was me.’
It’s not just water balloons.
The first Saturday broadcast after the joint broadcast.
Fan club subscriptions increased tremendously.
At first, I suspected some hidden camera or someone’s prank.
The growth rate was that surprising.
In just one Saturday, the fan club number reached 1,000.
A rookie who was barely hanging around 100 members grew tenfold in a day.
Thanks to that, I gained 230 points through water balloons, fan subscriptions, and viewer number missions during Saturday alone.
Adding the 300 points gained from clearing the special mission, it was 530 points.
Points gathered even more greatly than before conducting the joint broadcast.
It’s enough to feel full just looking at it.
Although it’s still not enough, at this growth rate, I might be able to take a new step by the end of this month.
‘The strategy worked properly.’
There were too many people who sing well or have good voices on the existing New Continent TV.
But there were very few BJs who showed this level of quality voice impersonation, and they didn’t have proper recognition, so I, who performed on a big stage, couldn’t help but stand out.
Perhaps because of that, by the time it became Saturday and then Sunday today after the Friday joint broadcast ended, I received two letters proposing joint broadcasts from other BJs.
‘They probably think they’ll leech some viewers when I’m an issue. Well, if it’s broadcasts of BJs who can maintain firepower for longer, I might consider it, but…’
Unfortunately, I decided to focus on individual broadcasts and solidify my foundation for the time being, judging that both BJs weren’t people who would be of much help in continuing the topic value.
In a way, even the current popularity was a bubble.
Fans as light as paper who might turn their backs immediately if any controversy or accident occurs.
For a broadcast to grow powerfully, I needed true fans who consider my broadcast as their first priority among numerous individual broadcasters.
‘Anyway, don’t get too excited or get ahead of yourself, just go steadily. Keep practicing voice impersonation even if it’s boring.’
If the ability level had reached 5 or 6, it might be different, but at level 3, a lot of effort was still needed to achieve completeness.
A lack of development means the broadcast’s growth also stagnates.
I couldn’t repeat the repertoire I had shown like Detective Conan or Pokémon forever.
Because staleness soon brings about viewers’ disappointment…
Gradually increasing the types of voice impersonations I could show was basic, and I also needed to develop new content related to this.
‘I do have content I’ve thought about already… but this seems possible only after getting closer to Mia, so let’s put it on hold for now.’
Ideas and creativity are more important than anything for a broadcaster.
Just in case I forget, I write it down firmly in a notepad and practice the main lines of newly selected characters.
The current time is 3 PM.
After practicing enough, I’ll conduct today’s broadcast around 5 PM.
Two days have passed, but I still can’t forget.
That very moment when I brilliantly displayed my talent under the spotlight where numerous people gathered.
Remembering the cheers from that day, I devote myself to practice today as well.
