Especially since last night's stream broke 550,000+ concurrent viewers, he gained a lot of new followers.
In fact, with 550,000+ concurrent viewers, he gained at least a million new followers from that one stream alone.
As for why 550,000+ concurrent viewers could lead to over a million new followers?
The reason, of course, was that it wasn't the same 550,000+ people watching from the beginning of the stream to the end.
Throughout the stream, some people would watch for a minute and leave, some for ten minutes, and others would leave after half an hour for other matters. As they left, a steady stream of new viewers joined. The platform's SS-Class traffic promotion alone pushed in ten million total views.
So, it was no surprise that he broke 20 million followers.
The key was that his current strategy didn't prioritize follower count anyway.
