It must be miHoYo's doing.

"Meita, immediately search for information about Hoyoverse and Cai # # on the Blue Star network."

Meita nodded and started searching, but the results surprised Tianming.

Because, this hoyoverse company has actually made three mobile games before, namely "fly me2 to the moon", "Honkai Gakuen 1" and "Honkai Gakuen 2".

Those familiar with miHoYo know that before developing Honkai Impact 3rd, miHoYo also made a paid game where Kiana used a jetpack to fly, which is considered the source of the Honkai Impact 3rd series of games. Only after that did they produce Honkai Impact 3rd.

Tianming looked through the information about the game "Honkai Gakuen 2" on Blue Star, and the result was even more unbearable.

This game has been discontinued!

You know, Tianming's previous game, Honkai Impact 3rd, lasted for 11 years, sucking the blood of countless other games and still standing strong. But Blue Star's "Honkai Gakuen 2" was shut down in the second month of its public beta.

The reason for the suspension was even more outrageous. More than a month ago, all official and rented servers of "Honkai Gakuen 2" short-circuited and crashed at the same time, as if they had made an appointment, causing all players' data to disappear completely.

PS: Thanks to @淡血 for the monthly ticket. I will add another chapter later if there are more monthly tickets~

Volume 1: The Birth of MiHoYo: 043 Cai Miao and Dawei (Extra update for the "Danxue" monthly ticket~)

Honkai Impact 3rd, which had originally opened a new chapter in the vast network of virtual reality games on Blue Star, announced its closure, completely shutting down. A month later, no one even remembered it, and everyone was probably heartbroken.

Seeing this, Tianming, who had originally thought it was outrageous, was suddenly stunned. For some reason, this plot felt familiar.

Tianming quickly realized that the reason he traveled through time was because the Mijia server crashed. What a coincidence!

So any miHoYo server, no matter which parallel world it is in, would have exploded more than a month ago?

But soon Tianming stopped thinking about these things, because he noticed that Hoyoverse on Blue Star was almost on the verge of bankruptcy after the incident with the Honkai Impact 3rd server.

"This is a godsend! It's better to let the original team make the game than to just hire some random Blue Star native! We might as well take advantage of this opportunity... No, let's lend a hand and take over this Blue Star company, MiHoYo. What do you think, Meita?"

Meita nodded.

When Tianming asked her to set up the miHoYo company on Blue Star, she had already used the huge purchasing power of fantasy points to buy countless gold, and used various hidden means to flow into the market in exchange for funds.

Currently, the total assets of miHoYo, registered on Blue Star, have reached over 100 billion RMB, more than enough to buy a small company. As for the plummeting gold prices on Blue Star and the widespread distress in the gold market, Meta didn't care.

"Then do as the master says and leave everything to Meita. As the master's perfect assistant, this job is quite simple."

Seeing this, Tianming raised his hand and an interested smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"This time, I'm going there myself! How could I not take a closer look at this world's miHoYo and DaWeiGe?"

After saying that, Tianming thought of someone - Bronya.

Since we are making a game, how can we miss Bronya?

Tianming immediately opened the terminal backend and entered the group chat, hoping to talk to Bronya. He found that Bronya was explaining the principles of the steam engine to Jean.

"This is quite interesting. Jean is quite ambitious. She knows that to develop Mondstadt, advanced production tools are needed. And with Mondstadt's ancient European productivity, the steam engine is indeed the best choice."

"Wait, isn't Mondstadt going to become a steampunk city in a few years?"

Tianming smacked his lips, but then he thought, with what he had prayed for, it wouldn't be too surprising even if they went directly into space in a few years.

Without thinking about it anymore, Tianming sent a private message to Bronya.

Acting Guild President: Bronya, would you like to come to my company and work on games as the Chief Designer? Salary is negotiable, starting at 100 crystals per month.

【]彡IV Order (Seven) Erluo (Four) Shrimp Reinstalled Bunny 19C: ! ! ! 】

[Heavy Bunny 19C: President, don't you know that I made Baosi from "Alahato"? How dare you ask me to make a game?]

Acting President: Don't worry this time. I've already prepared the game plan and outline. All you need to do is use your advanced game production experience to guide the people of the Origin Universe to create a good game.

[Heavy-Armored Bunny 19C: Alright, then, let's do as the President says.]

On the side of the Honkai Impact 3 universe.

Bronya, who was staring at the terminal screen, was now flushed with excitement. Even Seele, who was lying on the bed beside her, noticed something was wrong.

That's right, Bronya's calmness during the chat was all an act. In reality, due to the influence of memories from the next six years, making a great game had become her obsession. Now that she had this opportunity, even Bronya was incredibly excited.

In her eyes, the miHoYo Mutual Aid Association was a giant. What kind of masterpiece would the games produced by the companies in this association be? Bronya was a little excited just thinking about it.

"Sister Bronya, what's wrong?" Seele folded her hands, looking a little worried.

Hei Xi also floated out at this time and said viciously: "Which stinky man made you like this? Tell me, I will definitely not tear him apart!"

Bronya came back to her senses, gave the two of them a cold look, and told them that Tianming had just invited her to be the chief game designer.

Hei Xi's eyes immediately turned red.

"I knew that guy had bad intentions. This is definitely his excuse to get close to a piece of shit like you! I'm going to..."

Just when Hei Xi was extremely angry, a chat box popped up on Hei Xi's terminal.

Acting President: Hei Xi, would you and Xi'er like to become Bronya's assistants or secretaries? The price is negotiable.

Hei Xi replied at the speed of light——

[I like my sister the most: Good! ]

On the side, Bronya and Seele looked at Hei Xi, who was suddenly no longer angry, and were a little puzzled.

"Actually, that guy is quite sensible..."

………………

Blue Star, Magic City, an office building.

"Are we...really going to sell the company?"

At the conference table, several young men who looked somewhat decadent were looking at the young man sitting in the main seat with sad expressions on their faces.

As for the young man sitting in the main seat, he was Cai Miao whom Tianming met yesterday.

At this moment, Cai Miao was grabbing his hair, looking extremely painful.

"I've already struggled, but so what? Man proposes, God disposes. It's as if God wants us to die!"

"Yesterday, holding onto a last glimmer of hope, I planned to go to the Young Entrepreneurs Summit to see if anyone would invest in us and help us out. But as you all know, before I even arrived at the summit, something as impossible as a tunnel collapse occurred."

Cai Miao's head drooped completely, and his hands lay limply on the table.

"Maybe... this is fate. I should have figured it out when all the servers crashed for no apparent reason over a month ago, leaving no user data behind. This tech geek saving the world thing... it's ridiculous."

At the side, another young man with some white hair on his head could no longer sit still and slammed the table and stood up.

"Cai**! You coward! What do you think brought us together?! It's our love for the anime! It's our dreams! We've overcome so many difficulties, and you're going to give up now! You bastard who forgot our original intention!"

Hearing this, Cai Miao also stood up, with a look of pain and helplessness on his face.

"Do you think I want to give up?! Reality isn't a cartoon. The idea that my fate is in my own hands is bullshit. We're mortals, just ordinary people... We could sell everything we have to make another game, but what if that damn server crashes again? I just want to leave a way out for my brothers. If the company is sold, at least we can each get a share of the money. With our skills, we can find a job at any company and not starve to death. Do you really want all of you to be in debt with you for the rest of your lives?"

Dawei lowered his head and stopped talking.

Volume 1: The Birth of MiHoYo: 044 Turn left, hello Dawei

How could he not sense that the heavens were against them? Ever since the server crash a month ago, their company had been getting worse by the day, with all kinds of troubles knocking on their door.

Seeing that Dawei didn't say anything, Cai Miao sat down again weakly and looked at the blank ceiling.

"Everyone, get ready. The Zhong Group's negotiators will be arriving soon. Let's...part ways amicably..."

The conference room was like a tomb, dead and silent. No one moved, but faint cries could be heard.

After a long time, Dawei sighed, turned and walked out of the meeting room.

Arriving at the studio's gate, I looked back at the place where I had worked so hard for so many years. Besides memories, I felt more reluctant. But alas, everything is over.

Dreams and passions are nothing but illusions.

"Perhaps, what Old Cai said is right. We are all mortals. How can mortals change the world...?"

Dawei laughed at himself, took the elevator and left the office building.

Walking alone on the street and watching the people coming and going, Dawei felt for the first time that he had lost his goal.

"Gurgle~~"

There was a rumbling sound from his stomach, and Dawei smiled helplessly.

"Oh, I've been so busy lately that I forgot to eat breakfast. Forget it, let's go to the restaurant near the studio to eat. I may not come here again..."

Thinking about this, Dawei walked towards a breakfast shop.

As they walked, Dawei noticed something was wrong.

It's already around ten o'clock in the morning. Normally, there should be almost no one in the breakfast shop at this time, but today there are a lot of people gathered at the door of the breakfast shop, seemingly watching the fun.

Dawei was a little curious and squeezed into the crowd to take a look inside.

I noticed that everyone was looking at the three people in the breakfast shop with curiosity - one man and two women.

The man was wearing a hat and sunglasses, but just from the half of his face that was exposed and his slender figure, one could tell that he was definitely a rare and super handsome guy.

As for the two beauties on her left and right, one had long brown hair and wore a purple dress, sipping tea gracefully. The other had long, flowing white hair, and her casual clothes couldn't hide her extraordinary temperament at all. However, what was a little strange was that this incredibly beautiful girl was actually eating a bowl of tofu pudding in one mouthful, at the speed of light. There were already nearly a dozen bowls piled on the table, obviously all of which she had eaten.

"Oh my god! Those two beauties are the most beautiful I have ever seen in my life! How could beauties of this level be with that boy? What a waste of talent!" A man sighed.

Another girl on the side was unhappy, "You are just envious of that handsome boy. If you are not as handsome as him, why don't you look for your own problems instead?"

Another old man's focus was on the bowl on the table. "This girl has a big appetite, and she's not fat. She must be easy to bear children."

Listening to the comments of the people around him, Dawei nodded. However, he always had a strange feeling in his heart. He didn't find the man strange, but he found the two girls around him strange.

For some reason, Dawei always felt that these two girls were a little too beautiful to be real. They looked like they had walked out of the second dimension...

Patting his forehead, Dawei sighed again, "It seems that I have lost my mind because of staying at home. How could I have such thoughts?"

At this moment, a surprised cry came from the breakfast shop.

"Hey! Dawei brother! Why are you here too?!"

Dawei was stunned for a moment and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw the man wearing a hat and sunglasses waving at him.

Dawei pointed at himself and asked doubtfully, "Are you... calling me?"

But the man nodded immediately.

This time, Dawei was even more confused. On weekdays, the partners would actually call him Dawei, and the name "Brother Dawei" was more often used by the younger people in the company. But he really didn't recognize this handsome guy in front of him.

Looking at Dawei's confused expression, Tianming also realized where the problem lay and felt a little embarrassed.

That’s right, the handsome guy wearing a hat and sunglasses in everyone’s eyes is Tianming.

Originally, he had planned to come alone to acquire Hoyoverse on Blue Star, but Meita insisted on coming with her, saying that it would make the scene more interesting if she were there. As for why Si Ke Ke had come along?

It was all because Si Keke had developed a good habit of eating breakfast during her time in Tianming's Dust Song Pot space. Usually, Mei Ta made breakfast for her, so she could eat for free. But today, Mei Ta was going out with Tianming. Si Keke had no choice but to stare at Tianming with a "calm" gaze, hoping that he would take her with him.

As a result, Tianming brought two girls to Blue Star.

In order to prevent Si Ke Ke from making a scene during the discussion, Tian Ming even brought Si Ke Ke to have breakfast. However, it was Si Ke Ke's special preference for sweet tofu pudding that made Tian Ming unhappy.

Unexpectedly, when Tianming looked around bored, he actually saw Brother Dawei, whom he respected so much in his previous life.

Tianming was so excited that he shouted out loud.

At this moment, Tianming coughed lightly and said to Dawei brother in the distance: "Dawei brother, come, let's eat together."

This made the people watching the fun nearby extremely envious, and they all stared at Dawei as if he were an enemy.

This made Dawei feel a chill on the back of his neck. He didn't care how the man in the hat and sunglasses knew him. He rushed out of the crowd and entered the breakfast shop. He was afraid that something might happen to him if he stayed there any longer.

Sitting down nervously, Dawei just lowered his head and looked at the bowl of tofu pudding that Tianming had just pushed over to him.

I didn't recognize them, but the other reason was that, up close, the two girls had an aura that was truly intimidating. Especially the white-haired girl. Although she was clearly eating frantically, her expression revealed a powerful aura that was completely unattainable in this era, like a god of war emerging from a sea of ​​blood and corpses.

Tianming also noticed Dawei's nervousness and hurried out to help him.

He took off his sunglasses, leaned in front of Dawei, and said, "Nice to meet you, Dawei. As for why I recognized you, it's because I'm actually a big fan of your studio's "Honkai Gakuen 2". To this end, I specially searched for information about everyone in your studio, haha."

"Oh~~, so...that's how it is...haha."

Dawei laughed it off, but looked up at Tianming's eyes. There was nothing impurity in those black eyes, full of sincerity, which made him involuntarily believe what the other party said.

But then, Dawei laughed at himself.

"I appreciate your love... but unfortunately... the server crashed and the game has been shut down for a long time."

Dawei thought that his ruthless words to the "fan" in front of him might cause a dull silence, but what responded to him was a confident look.
