Zheng He got the idea to beg online when he was sitting in front of a burger shop and saw someone broadcasting live from the center of the square.
But that person wasn't begging; they were a legitimate talent streamer who just received gifts from fans, and they excitedly thanked their fans for the gifts.
Zheng He had heard before that such streamers make a lot of money, sometimes earning over a thousand yuan from the gifts they receive.
Then Zheng He thought, if he could get netizens to send him gifts too, wouldn't it be a breeze to surpass Chen Xixi in wealth?
So, instead of persistently asking Han Qianyi to treat him to a burger or mooching a steak off Chen Xixi, he returned to his spot under the bridge, with the intention to sell a sob story.
To beg, one must look the part of a beggar!
If you're well-fed and hydrated, how could you call yourself a beggar?
