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

Chapter 88: Mr. Lu is Everywhere (Please Order)

Lu Yu then returned to the table and sat opposite Liu Mengyuan, enjoying the buffet.

The neon lights outside the window projected onto Liu Mengyuan's face, making her look even brighter and more charming.

After playing for a day, Liu Mengyuan slowly opened up her heart. While cutting the cakes on the plate with a fork, she said:
“In fact, when the company was expanding its workforce, I was a little worried about whether I could fit in with the company.

After all, I used to live in a family that was... well, rather special in every way. My living habits and thinking patterns were all developed in that environment. At first, I was afraid that I would be seen as a weirdo by you. "

What Liu Mengyuan didn't say was that she was particularly worried that Lu Yu would think so.

"How could that be?" Lu Yu rolled his eyes.

"You're just like a normal human being, with two arms and two legs. Why would anyone have so many strange opinions about you?"

However, Liu Mengyuan was right about one thing. Her family was indeed special, especially Liu Lan, who was a hardcore ruthless person who was even crueler to himself than to others.

Come to think of it, Liu Mengyuan seemed to have never mentioned her father.

Since he took his mother's surname, Liu, does that mean Liu Lan's husband should be a son-in-law who married into the family?

However, it seems that various television media and business magazines have never shown Liu Lan and her husband appearing together.

Emmm... Forget it, it’s better not to ask about other people’s family affairs.

"Actually... I also want to get to know you better." Liu Mengyuan held her chin and stared at Lu Yu with her beautiful eyes.

Lu Yu pursed his lips and smiled at her:
"Come on, we're roommates now. What kind of life I lead is on display right under your noses every day."

Liu Mengyuan shook his head: "I want to know more."

Where Lu Yu was born and raised, his past, what his parents looked like, did he secretly pass love letters to his female deskmate in elementary school, did he have a childhood sweetheart relationship with a girl from the next class in high school, were there any obscene magazines hidden under the bed in his room back home...

She is very curious!

After all, most of my contact with Lu Yu during my sophomore year was limited to the club activities of the Youyan Society.

Apart from game development, she knew nothing else about this man.

Liu Mengyuan is not a girl who is crazy about love.

Only with full understanding can you like it more correctly.

After she moved in with Lu Yu, Lu Yu did not rush to touch her.

From this we can also see that Lu Yu is not a man who is obsessed with love.

After all, she was living a second life, so it was understandable that she considered many things more maturely. But what amazed her was that Lu Yu, who was clearly a young man, sometimes showed a maturity far beyond his age. It was truly magical.

"Will have the opportunity next time."

Lu Yu pondered for a moment and continued, "You've escaped the group's surveillance and have been out for so long. Aren't you afraid your mother will be angry?"

Liu Mengyuan spread his hands indifferently: "Actually, from the moment I ran away from home, I had already completely angered her, but I am no longer afraid of anything."

In this life, she was determined to experience a different way of living, and even if Liu Lan used more intense obstructions, she could not stop her.

"After that, I will use the appropriate method to declare my independence to her. I will tell her and the old guard in the group that I have grown up, and I will be more successful than they can imagine!"

Liu Mengyuan's eyes were burning.

……

Next Monday.

The Mouth Cannon Life project team held a meeting in the conference room to summarize the materials collected recently from urban life.

We have collected a lot of city street scene materials in everyone’s photo albums, and we have gained a lot.

Mo Xiaoxuan opened a PowerPoint presentation on the conference room's large screen, showcasing the various designs recently compiled by the planning team: a fashion system, a pose system, a jet-powered bus, and a ranking competition for mouth cannons in the observation tower...

Client programmer Zhang Fan carefully confirmed the jet bus plan.

Two large spray guns installed at the rear of the car will spray energy intermittently, and the speed of the car will change according to the energy sprayed by the spray guns.

Zhang Fan rolled his eyes. "Are you running buses all over the city driven by your mouth? You're really adding to the workload for the clients."

Yao Jun, the oldest server programmer in the group, also complained, "Don't play the victim. Look at the other requirements the planners have put forward. No one cares about my old bones."

Zhao Yuhang, the numerical planner, interrupted, "My concern now is, with such a large number of art and gameplay requirements, can we clearly define the development focus of the game? Otherwise, the workload will be overwhelming, and the final product may not be good."

Copywriter Hao Shuwen also nodded. "Yes, for example, the most pressing question is, in this world filled with word particles, what kind of story do we want to tell?"

The artist Sun Rou said, "It would be best if we could clarify the tone of the art style. Right now, we only know it's a cartoon rendering. Could you please give us a direction on how it should look like? Then Brother Xiong and I will coordinate."

Everyone started talking and then turned their attention to producer Mo Xiaoxuan.

Mo Xiaoxuan was a little nervous as he suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention.

The programmer complained about the weird requirements, the planner had wild ideas, and the artist had no idea what direction to take...

This is a very normal thing in a game development team.

It is the producer's responsibility to coordinate all of this and ensure that development work is in order.

In fact, when Mo Xiaoxuan was at Frostwolf Studios, he had also watched planners and other types of workers quarreling with each other, and even saw them fighting with chairs in front of each other in the conference room.

But at that time, he was just a trembling bystander.

And now, he is at the center of the vortex.

After all, this was his first time to be in charge of a project independently, and it was such a large project at that. He was at a loss for a moment, his mind went blank, his mouth was stuck, and he couldn't say anything.

……

Seeing Mo Xiaoxuan stuck there, many people sighed in their hearts, and then turned their eyes to Liu Mengyuan in the room.

Liu Mengyuan was also confused.

The first two projects were completely accidental, with very few people involved, and she had no experience in game project management.

But she certainly couldn't start, because Lu Yu was not in the meeting room at the moment, and she was the highest decision maker.

Besides, it is really not right for the CEO to step in and resolve every specific R&D difficulty.

Liu Mengyuan cleared his throat and decided to use Lu Yu's image to calm the situation.

"Everyone, don't panic. I think this is a test given to us by President Lu."

"Mr. Lu's test?" Everyone's eyes lit up.

“Ah… indeed!”

Liu Mengyuan was delighted. He didn't expect that using Lu Yu to maintain order would be so effective.

In the spirit of using it to the fullest extent possible, Liu Mengyuan said:

"Think about it, didn't President Lu foresee the R&D difficulties we're facing now? Then why didn't he intervene? It's because he wanted us to learn how to think for ourselves and how to properly allocate our energy and development resources during this process."

Zhao Yuhang nodded slightly. "Boss Liu is right. Our problem now isn't a lack of inspiration, but rather the fact that there are so many things we can do that we can't grasp the key points."

Liu Mengyuan thought of what Lu Yu said on the first day of living together with him, and repeated it verbatim:
"Mr. Lu once used the example of making instant noodles, saying, 'Ingredients are not high or low; it all depends on how the chef prepares them.'"

Shao Peng kept repeating this sentence, and suddenly slapped his head:
"I understand, I understand everything!"
