The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Elaine cleared her throat and sang emotionally with her tone-deaf voice “Every night in my dreams, I see you, I feel you...”
As she sang, a viewer entered the live broadcast room and stayed for a few seconds.
The number of people in the live broadcast room remained at 1 during these few seconds.
Elaine was overjoyed at this, thinking it had a great effect.
However, at that moment, a comment from the viewer appeared in the comment section, “Your account is so useless!” After
which, the viewer immediately left the live broadcast room.
Seeing this comment, Elaine became furious and exclaimed, “What does this person mean? How dare he call my account
useless after entering my stream? It’s an honor to be in my live broadcast, you don’t know how to appreciate it!”
After her outburst, Elaine couldn’t control her anger and clicked on the viewer’s nickname, entered their homepage and sent
them a private message.
The message was simple and vulgar, with only nine words “You Bastard! Your whole family will die tonight!”
After sending this message, she immediately blocked the user to avoid any further insults from them.
After these actions, she temporarily calmed down and returned to her live broadcast room but at this time, the live broadcast
room was still not very popular.
People came and went quickly and nothing remained.
Elaine began to doubt her luck and muttered in anger, “I am so unlucky! People come and go, come and go! Hannah, started a
live broadcast and 10,000 to 20,000 people rushed to watch it.
I started a live broadcast and invested 2,000 yuan.
Can’t keep a single person!”
Just when Elaine was extremely depressed, a notification popped up on her mobile phone’s live broadcast room page, “Because
you insulted others, the live broadcast room will be banned for 72 hours!”
This came as a shock to Elaine.

She never expected her live broadcast debut to go so poorly and it deeply hurt her self-esteem.
Enraged, she immediately contacted the platform’s customer service.
When the customer service representative answered with “Hi, how can I help you?”
Elaine started to express her anger and frustration about the situation.
She exclaimed in anger, “Why did you block my live broadcast room? Who gave you the authority? I’m warning you, I’ll call the
police!”
The customer service representative attempted to placate her, saying, “Please, let’s calm down.
Can you tell me what led to your account being blocked?”
Elaine retorted, still furious, “I got a notification that said I insulted someone.
What does that even mean?”
The customer service representative spoke politely, “Madam, please give me your platform ID number or the mobile phone
number you used to register.”
Elaine responded with anger, “It’s the same one I’m calling from!”
The customer service representative assured her, “Please wait a moment while I check the specific reason for you.”
The customer service representative could be heard typing on their keyboard.
After a moment, they spoke.
“Ms.
Elaine, we have investigated the complaint and it appears that a user on our platform has reported that you insulted them in
private messages.
The screenshots of the chat records provided do show that your language was not appropriate.
This is a violation of our platform’s rules.”

Elaine exclaimed through gritted teeth, “I violated the rules? But why wasn’t I told why I was scolded? You didn’t see the
message he left in my live broadcast room? He said my account was useless.
How is insulting people allowed?”
The customer service representative patiently explained, “Ma’am, according to your description, the content of the user’s
message in your live broadcast room does not violate our platform’s regulations and is considered normal communication...”
“However, your response of insulting and cursing the other party’s family is considered a personal attack and is not allowed.”
Elaine said indignantly, “That’s unfair! Those words are clearly degrading and you’re still saying it’s normal communication.
Why are you protecting him? He came into my live broadcast room, humiliated me and ran away.
Can’t I defend myself? Do I deserve to be humiliated by him?”
The customer service representative continued to speak in a calm tone, “Ma’am, I understand that the user’s words may have
made you uncomfortable, but according to our platform’s regulations, they do not violate the terms of service...”
“However, the language you used in response does violate our terms of service.
We apologize for the penalty on your live broadcast room but it is in line with our regulations.
I hope you can understand.”
Elaine said angrily, “I understand! I understand the crap! You charged me 2000 yuan and you don’t even help me.
You’re just bullying honest people!”
The customer service representative said helplessly, “Ma’am, I want to clarify that we did not take sides.
We simply followed our platform’s rules.”
The customer service representative added, “In addition, I also saw that you had made a promotion order for 2000 yuan.
However, before your live broadcast room was banned, your promotion order had only consumed a total of 15 yuan and 80
cents...”
“Since the live broadcast room is now banned, the promotion order has also been suspended.

If you need a refund, you can apply for it at any time in the background and we will refund the remaining balance to your
payment account.
If you still need promotion services, you can continue with this promotion order after your live broadcast room is unblocked.”
Elaine was so angry that she felt her blood rushing to her head and her hands began to tremble with extreme anger and
frustration.
Her teeth were chattering due to the shaking.
At this moment, the customer service representative said, “How about this, ma’am, even though it was wrong for you to use that
language, I can understand your feelings to a certain extent...”
“To make up for your bad experience, I will give you a promotional coupon for a 5 yuan discount.
It has been sent to your account.
You can use it when you create a promotional order next time, as long as the single amount exceeds 2000 yuan.”
Elaine, unable to contain her anger, exclaimed in frustration.
Her body trembled with emotion and she said, “I don’t want your coupon! Keep it and use it to buy yourself a coffin!” Saying this,
she threw the phone away and it fell to the ground, the screen going black instantly.
The weight of her feelings caused her to sit alone in front of her dressing table, and she began to cry.
Claire, who was downstairs, heard the commotion from upstairs and said, “It sounds like Mom is arguing with someone, I’ll go
check...”
She put down her chopsticks and quickly took the elevator upstairs.
When she reached the door of Elaine’s room, she could hear her mother crying and cursing inside. Claire quickly opened the
door and went in.
Seeing her mother crying at the dressing table and her cell phone dropped on the ground, she asked with concern, “Mom, what’s
wrong?”

Elaine was in tears as she spoke to Claire.
“Good girl,” she said, “Someone humiliated me and blocked my account.
I scolded someone back and got banned!”
She continued.
“Do you think they’re still human?”
Claire was confused, “Mom, what do you mean? Who humiliated you? Who blocked your account? What account was blocked?”
Elaine explained through her tears, “I was just starting a live broadcast and someone came in, called my account useless and
ran away.
I was so angry, I sent him a private message and scolded him.
As a result, the platform blocked me!”
Claire asked in surprise, “Mom, you started a live stream?”
Elaine didn’t hide her secrets anymore and replied honestly, “Yeah... It’s not Hannah who was paid thousands! She made so
much money from live broadcasting.
She looks like a human being, but she still ran in front of me and yelled.
I was so angry! I thought, why can’t I live broadcast like that?”
“So I also opened a live broadcast room, who would have thought this would happen just after the broadcast started...”
Claire said helplessly, “Mom, you don’t lack food, drink, clothes, you don’t lack anything, why do you imitate other people’s live
broadcasts... ”
Elaine looked unhappy and reversed the question, “I don’t need anything here? Why don’t you say that those celebrities still
broadcast live every day?”
“Look at those internet celebrities who earn hundreds of millions a year, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, they can’t wait
for the live broadcast! There are also those celebrities who are not busy enough to film, sing and appear on a variety of shows,

and they even go to the internet to broadcast live broadcasts to bring goods!”
“Compared with them, I am nothing! They don’t think they earn money much more, what right do I have to think money is burning
my hand!”
Claire sighed, “Mom, not everyone can do live broadcasting.
Aunt’s live broadcast is watched by people because she relies on Uncle and Cousin lying on the bed and selling misery, with the
eighty-year-old grandmother next to her.
These are the selling points of her live broadcast...”
As she spoke, Claire also wanted to comfort her mother, so she said, “Mom, don’t worry, if Auntie is like you and then live
broadcasts by herself, there must be no one watching it...”
Elaine frowned and asked angrily, “Claire, what do you mean? No one will watch the live broadcast of your mother”
