You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 12 I'm even more excited

But in short, Lu Yu finally understood where those suddenly excessive missed calls came from.

It is estimated that many of them are editors of the Youyi platform, other channel partners seeking cooperation, or gaming media requesting interviews.

Lu Yu rubbed his eyebrows. According to his experience in his previous life, he would be busy in the next few days.

But the question is, how did a big UP host with 200 million fans notice this little game in a corner?
He couldn't miss his sister.

……

When Thomas woke up in the morning, he went through a roller coaster of emotions.

While he was having a sweet dream, the editor-in-chief called and scolded him.

He had just published the article criticizing Cat Girl Paradise in the early morning, and Cat Girl Paradise miraculously became popular. This was a complete blow to the authority of professional media such as Game Grapes!
If it was an unknown game, it would be fine if I made a mistake, but the problem is that this game is now on the D site's hot search list, which is a blatant slap in the face.

A game review that is refuted may require ten more authoritative reviews to restore the reputation of GameGrapes.

No wonder the editor-in-chief was so angry.

Thomas, with dark circles under his eyes and a dull gaze, opened the comments section of his brilliant article, "A Warning to Game Makers: Young People, Don't Get Too Self-Enthusiastic!"
"Why does Thomas always hate young people? Because he himself is no longer young. He feels regretful and jealous!"

"That's right. These people are always saying that this generation of young people is useless, that generation of young people is ruined, as if they themselves have never been young."

"I've been watching Game Grapes for ten years now, and this is the first time I'm disappointed in you. Your review is full of emotion and subjective judgment, and it's obvious that you haven't even played the game to the end."

"Thomas, hurry up and quit the game! Look at the role of John, the protagonist of this game, in the story. And what about you? You're even worse than a hamster."

Thomas swallowed an indescribable bitterness in his throat.

It is impossible to say that my manuscripts have never been rejected over the years. After all, everyone makes mistakes sometimes.

But most of the small studios he controlled in the past kept silent and did not cause any trouble.

This Taoyuan Township studio was the first to beat him so hard.

Then he thought about it again, and realized that it was his own negative article that caused the game to attract the attention of the anchor, which made him feel even more hurt.

At this moment, the hamster John on the game cover looked like he was mocking someone.

and many more!

Thomas shuddered.

Is there a possibility that this is not a coincidence, but Taoyuanxiang Studio is trying to trick him!

They were very poor and had no budget for publicity and promotion, and they knew that Thomas had a habit of sweeping the charts, so they deliberately hid the key props to break the deadlock in the bushes, fishing for his fish and waiting for him to produce the manuscript!

Anyway, these days, black and red are still red.

The more Thomas thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed, and his eyes became sharper.

OK, Taoyuanxiang Studio, you've successfully caught my attention...

……

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Hualou Pedestrian Street, Old Chongqing Hot Pot Restaurant.

Lu Yu and Liu Mengyuan sat by the window and ate heartily.

After learning that the game was a hit, Lu Yu dragged Liu Mengyuan to a celebration banquet without saying a word.

This is the most expensive hotpot restaurant on Hualou Street, with an average cost of over 500 yuan per person, which is considered a luxury near the university town.

Anyway, if you hold this kind of dinner on a weekday in the name of celebrating a success and spend money from the company account, the system will not object, and you can also earn leisure points.

Liu Mengyuan was looking very satisfied as he dipped a piece of supreme beef in sesame chili sauce and put it into his mouth.

The beef juice bursts on the tip of your tongue, the taste is rich, fat but not greasy, and melts in your mouth.

In the past, her mother always controlled her to eat less greasy and fishy food. This was the first time she enjoyed eating so much.

[Employee Liu Mengyuan tasted the hot pot beef and felt extremely satisfied. Leisure points +0.5]

Before coming, Lu Yu had already taken the time to play the official version of the game.

He was very surprised that Liu Mengyuan had added so many clever ideas.

"I didn't expect you to be so talented in game design."

He sighed as he picked up a thin piece of kidney.

Snow-white fat appears, emitting an alluring meaty aroma. Take a bite and you’ll find it incredibly tender.

[Eating with a beautiful girl, enjoying kidney slices, feeling happy, leisure points +3] Lu Yu's casual sigh made Liu Mengyuan look confused:
"Eh? I'm just an artist. Didn't you remind me of these designs?"

"What the hell?! Did I warn you?"

Lu Yu was even more confused, and his chopsticks stopped in mid-air.

I was so lazy and lay down for half a month, why did I remind you!
The two of them looked at each other with eyes full of wisdom for a moment, and finally couldn't stand the aroma of meat on the table anymore, so they ignored such insignificant details and continued to eat.

Lu Yu showed off a big mouthful of kidney:

"Also, before you start talking nonsense, explain to me what that blue and white striped prop is. I don't remember stuffing it into the bushes."

Liu Mengyuan guiltily put two shrimp balls into his mouth, and his cheeks were bulging.

She pretended to be calm:
"Huh? What blue and white stripes? I can't seem to find them. Did you add them yourself and forget to pinch them?"

Lu Yu was concentrating on eating when he suddenly looked up.

Almost at this moment, he saw a mischievous smile like that of a little devil on Liu Mengyuan's pretty face.

After rubbing his eyes and looking carefully, he found that the girl had returned to her harmless and good girl expression.

This girl Liu Mengyuan...how should I put it, maybe she unexpectedly has many unknown and untapped sides?
[The beautiful girl you admire has a hidden attribute? You're even more excited about this. Leisure Points +5]

Lu Yu's old face turned red.

I’m not, I don’t have that, system, please don’t talk nonsense.

……

On the third day after the release of "Cat Girl Paradise Adventure", the game advanced to the next round of recommendations.

What follows is greater exposure and sales.

The operations editor of the Youyi platform called his cell phone:

"Mr. Lu Yu, based on your game's current performance, promotion to the second round of trial is a foregone conclusion. Please fix the game's bugs as soon as possible in the next few days. If possible, you will also need to interact more with the players in the comment section.

Because your game is likely to be featured on the [Youyi Rising Star] list. This is a position many new developers dream of, so please pay attention to it."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yu saw that the game sales had soared to more than 10,000.

Now, there happens to be a system-wide 7-day [Abundant Harvest] buff blessing.

In addition, the Youyi platform does not participate in the profit sharing of the first game sold by newcomers, so for each game sold, he collects 5 yuan, and the system buff rewards another 5 yuan. In a blink of an eye, the company's account has accumulated more than yuan in funds.

The game is also breaking out of more and more circles, and even in the comment section and game forum, there are already various mouse and cat girl emoticons and fan creations.

Of course, as the number of players increases, various strange bugs begin to emerge, and some players will denounce the official when they encounter them.

"Good boy, it looks like we'll be busy in a short time."

Since Wednesday, the two of them have been busy fixing bugs, interacting with players, monitoring sales data, and answering calls from various partners.

After a busy day, he couldn't help feeling a little dizzy.

In the evening, the system popped up a reminder: [Because you are too busy, your leisure points are -6]

What he worried about happened.

Although he and Liu Mengyuan had several big meals in the name of celebrating, the leisure points he earned from eating out could hardly offset the points deducted for being busy.

After all, according to the underlying rules of the system, the more work-related the fatigue is, the more severe the point deduction will be!
If possible, he really doesn't want the company to develop too fast, because if he does, there will definitely be a lot of trouble and his leisure points will be deducted to the extreme.

After working hard for a long time, the company's account funds still cannot be put into his pocket.

But he was unwilling to give up.

Maliciously stopping a company's operations is likely to violate system rules.

More importantly, he could feel the joy and sense of accomplishment that Liu Mengyuan gained from the best-selling game, which was extremely precious to this useless girl in the group's eyes.

Well, it’s the woman you chose, what can you do? Just pamper her.

In fact, the core concept of his founding of Taoyuan Township is leisure.

Ideally, two people would do the work of one person, so that everyone could be more relaxed.

As a result, one person now does more than the work of two people. How can that be possible?

We must expand enrollment!
