Fan Fan is 26 and feels old and burnt out. She works 10 hours a day, sometimes more, on weekdays. She is an internet live-streaming celebrity in China making a living off virtual gifts from followers who watch her sing, dance and eat. Wu Yongning, a rooftopping star, fell to his death last month from a 62-storey skyscraper in south China’s Hunan province, where Fan is originally from. She wakes up at 9am and works till midnight every day, with the live-streaming alone taking five to six hours a day.
