Chapter 22

Shenhai City, 15th floor of Building B3 in the Hi-Tech Park, the headquarters of Whale Technology. Founded in 2007, Whale Technology Co., Ltd. was a local internet technology company mainly engaged in online games, video streaming, animation, and other projects. In June 2012, they officially launched Whale TV, becoming one of the country's first online live-streaming platforms. At that time, online live streaming was still in its pioneering stage. With strong support from Whale Technology, Whale TV developed extremely rapidly. Especially in its core sector of game streaming—bolstered by three major hit games: CKG, Heroic Realms, and Planet Overlord—it quickly captured over 70% of the market share and cultivated a large number of outstanding streamers.
