The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 214 Sparkling Bright and Heart-Chilling

"I knew it! How could those two possibly succeed in the gaming industry?" Xu Jiuyang muttered to himself as he drove.

Given the immense popularity of "Legend of Mir," the fact that the first year's profit was only 500 million is truly astonishing. Speaking of which, how much profit did Chen's "Legend of Mir" make in its first year?

He couldn't be bothered to recall it; how could he possibly remember such information? Anyway, he should be better than them... right?

That being said, Xu Jiuyang still played "Legend" a few times after it was launched. From his personal perspective, it was better than the "Legend" when it was first launched in his previous life. So even if it doesn't become a hit, the profits can still increase tenfold, after all, the next era is online games.

If you calculate it that way, my annual share is only... well, it's practically free. I only offered some suggestions for improvement, and I never really paid attention to it. The only time I went over was to get Tu Jingwei's lips.

"Maybe I should just go and operate the Aurogon Games," Xu Jiuyang said to himself.

The only reason I'm still an actress is because of Fan Bingbing. She's so shameless; she only feels at ease when she's tied to me.

So, becoming a contracted actor with her film and television company and helping her run her game company are not much different. If he can really get the agency rights for "World of Warcraft" through Angela, then all that's left is to buy houses and buy in-game currency, and then just sit back and relax.

Even if he doesn't get it, it doesn't matter. He can still use Lee Yoon-hyung to get the distribution rights for a few Korean games, such as Bubble Fighter and Audition Online, and then build up his own talent pool. When the mobile game era comes, we can start a business together.

As long as there are no major problems, they'll take care of the minor ones, right?
Once a person's thinking goes astray, they can change their mind very quickly. Even if he had the idea of ​​running a game company six months ago, he would only think about using his foresight to create some original games.

"I can't help it, it's hardest to resist the kindness of a beautiful woman," Xu Jiuyang continued to mutter.

These two lately, Angela, being a foreign woman, is quite direct. She calls or texts every now and then, saying things like "I miss you, XXX," and then asks when she's free, even though she's actually very busy with work.

Li Yunxin was at the other extreme. After that day, she didn't make any phone calls or send any text messages, which made Xu Jiuyang inexplicably worried. In the end, he called Dong Qing first, and Dong Qing then called Jin Taixi. After asking about the situation, he took the initiative to call her.

Although her tone was calm after the call connected, her excitement and happiness were still evident.

This made Xu Jiuyang feel somewhat guilty, so he took the initiative to call her during this period. However, whenever he thought about her identity and having to face her family, he felt it was a difficult situation.

It's worth noting that they teamed up with Lee Boo-jin to acquire the Tencent shares released by IDG and Li Xiaochao.

He inexplicably understood the feelings of the protagonist in "Match Point," the difference being that he was worldly-wise and didn't have a strong desire to climb the social ladder.

Soon, they arrived at their destination. Xu Jiuyang put aside his thoughts, got out of the car, and entered the alley. After several twists and turns, he arrived at the target private restaurant.

It's strange, but after following Gao Yuanyuan and Fan Bingbing, we've eaten at several private restaurants in Beijing, and there are still some we haven't tried yet. Are the chefs of these private restaurants like crops in a leek field, growing a new batch every few days?
Without giving it much thought, he told the waiter his room number and was then led to the private room.

"Oh, you're here!" Yang Rong was very happy, and as soon as the waiter left, she kissed him.

"Rong'er," Xu Jiuyang called out helplessly.

"Sorry, sorry, let me introduce you," Yang Rong said, sticking out her tongue sheepishly, then pointing to the first person at the round table, "This is Sister Tao, my godmother's assistant."

"Um, Tao... Sister Tao, hello." Xu Jiuyang was a little confused when he came up. Why did this assistant look so much like Teacher Bai?

"Hello, Jiuyang, my name is Liu Tao." The other person smiled, stood up, and shook hands with him.

Holy crap, it really is Teacher Bai?! Even though Xu Jiuyang has seen a lot in his life, he almost couldn't hold back at this moment.

Yang Rong continued, "This is Sister Hong, the person in charge of Red Boat Film Industry."

"Hello, Sister Hong." Xu Jiuyang remained polite, yet felt that the other person looked very familiar.

"Hello, Jiuyang, my name is Li Hong." The other person also stood up and shook hands with him. Hmm, that name sounds familiar too? Xu Jiuyang was surprised and uncertain. Looking at the face that wasn't particularly beautiful, but appeared exceptionally dignified, could it be that Li Hong?

Thinking about Dong Qing and Tu Jingwei again, he suddenly felt a toothache. Was he going to have a run for his money with the female hosts of CCTV?
Of course, on the surface, Xu Jiuyang maintained a calm smile, but secretly asked Yang Rong, "Where's your godmother?"

"I just went to the restroom. If you had come a minute earlier, you would have seen it," Yang Rong said reproachfully.

Then a voice came from outside: "Has anyone arrived?"

Xu Jiuyang froze, his heart pounding wildly. Although they hadn't actually slept together many times, he had confided in the mature woman so much that he could easily recognize her voice.

"Yes, yes, godmother, I just arrived." Yang Rong greeted her happily.

Oh no! He had just been thinking that maybe it wasn't his godmother, or maybe it was just a friend of his godmother, but that sound shattered his illusions.

Yang Rong was giving him a nudge as he felt a pressure on his arm, so even though he was stiff all over, he slowly turned around, letting the mature woman's face gradually come into view.

“Hello… Auntie…” His voice was very hoarse.

"The young man is quite...shy." Although the other person said it jokingly, he still caught the slight tremor in his voice.

Moreover, although a smile graced his familiar face, fine beads of sweat could be seen on his forehead.

When it came time to shake hands with the other person, I could clearly feel the slippery sweat on my palm.

"Oh no, I forgot my things in the restroom," she said again, and turned to leave the private room so fast that Yang Rong couldn't stop her.

“My godmother isn’t a forgetful person,” she couldn’t help but mutter.

"Rong'er," Xu Jiuyang coughed lightly, "what's your name, Auntie?"

“My godmother’s surname is Liu, and her name is Liu Xiaoli,” Yang Rong replied.

Xu Jiuyang, who was pretending to cough, was immediately choked by his saliva and began to cough even louder.

"What's wrong? Drink some water quickly." Yang Rong poured him a glass of water.

Xu Jiuyang waved his hands repeatedly and pounded his chest several times to calm himself down: "Aunt Liu...where is Aunt Liu from?"

“My godmother is from Hong Kong,” Yang Rong said.

The person breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard her say, "But she immigrated there in 98. Before that, she lived in Jiangcheng and was a dancer at the opera house. She even held her own solo dance recital."

Xu Jiuyang almost fainted. A dancer named Liu Xiaoli living in Jiangcheng—there was no need to guess anymore; her identity was written all over her face.

So, I labeled Liu Tianxian's mother as a mature older sister and... He really wanted to cover his forehead and groan a few times so that he could calm down after venting.

But soon, another bucket of cold water was poured over his head, leaving him feeling completely refreshed and chilled.

"Is that so?" He heard his own voice drifting over from the horizon. "Then, Rong'er, does Aunt Liu... does Aunt Liu have children? How old are they?"
