Collapse? No, this is daily

Because there were too many people in the official hotel and it would feel chaotic and noisy, Mei simply took them to a villa near their home. So, shortly after coming out of the hotel, the two groups parted ways.

"Well, don't worry, I'm a good citizen who obeys traffic rules."

After rubbing Seele's little head to dispel her worries and putting her next to Bronya, Nangong Yu said goodbye to the new friends he had made.

"In fact, there are many empty rooms in the villa. You can come over."

Because of the relationship between Seele and Bronya, Mei felt at ease inviting Nangong Yu to live in her house.

"Thank you, but that's not necessary. I have a few friends here. It's fine if I delay their dinner, but it would be unreasonable if I continue to delay them in the evening."

After waving his hand to reject the suggestion, Nangong Yu saw Kiana jumping out from Mei's side.

"Hey, see you tomorrow~"

Kiana waved her hand and said with a smile that she would also go to the venue to help tomorrow, so it would be easy to meet her indeed.

"Well, see you tomorrow."

"Hey, I'll be helping Bronya promote her game on the first day, so your game will have to be scheduled for the second day. Is that okay with you?"

Seeing that it was her turn to say goodbye, Xilin crossed her arms and said with an uncomfortable look on her face.

"How could I have any objection? It would be great if you could help me. Thank you very much."

"Humph, it's just a small benefit for fans, don't forget to follow my account!"

"Of course~"

As he spoke, Nangong Yu took out his mobile phone and opened the live broadcast interface. Even though the screen was black, one or two comments would occasionally float across it. It seemed that he was indeed a well-known anchor.

"I am now a fan of Ms. Puffer~"

Because Xilin puffs up her mouth when she is angry, her fans affectionately call her Miss Puffer.

"You, how did you know this nickname? No, don't call me that. Forget it now!!!"

"Haha, such a cute name, I may never forget it. Bye~"

"Waaaaaaaaah! Just wait till the day after tomorrow when I say something bad about your game!!"

"Then please be merciful with your words."

"Humph, it's good that you know you're wrong."

"Ms. Pufferfish~"

"......You, you!"

Xilin's face turned red with anger. She raised her finger to accuse or threaten, but she found that the man had already run away and even waved at her with a smile.

"You, you, you make me so mad!!!"

Chapter 17 Even the best wine needs a bush

"My sons, I'm back~"

Because it was still early after dinner, Nangong Yu went for a walk around St. Freya after returning, and only returned to the hotel after it was completely dark.

After opening the door of the assigned suite, he immediately smiled and greeted his three sons.

"Go~" x3

I saw three people lying in a row on the sofa. They looked weak and it seemed that they didn't even have the strength to scold him.

"What's going on? Why are both of them lying down?"

Hearing this, Kirito and Sugizaki Ken turned their heads away without saying a word. Only Kitahara showed a touching expression. He looked at Nangong Yu and said with a sigh: "I feel that I have no regrets in this life."

"..."

Well, it seems that this guy is quite satisfied with the service he arranged tonight.

"Okay, now that you've enjoyed yourself, don't forget to complete my game tonight. Otherwise, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for you as a staff member to not even know what game you're responsible for tomorrow?"

"really."

Nangong Yu's voice made the three people slowly get up. They nodded in agreement.

They dug out a computer to be used for the demonstration tomorrow, connected it to the projector in the living room, and then had the recognized gaming expert Tong Laoye operate it, while the other two watched on the left and right.

"Don't worry, no matter how boring the game you make is, we will insist on completing it!"

Patting his chest, Kitahara assured.

"Well, but I still believe in the quality of my game."

Smiling and nodding, Nangong Yu took out a box of tissues and placed them on the table. He looked at them and said, "You may need them soon."

"Hmm? Are you playing that kind of shivering game?"

The three of them were puzzled.

"No, I'm just afraid that you won't have any paper to use after you cry."

"cry?"

Nangong Yu's words made the three of them laugh disdainfully, especially Beiyuan who swore directly: "Crying? Ah Yu, stop being so funny, if this game can make me cry, I will just wash my hair upside down."

"Okay, I'll make a note of that."

"Heh~ Kazuto, let's get started. I'm already looking forward to what kind of game can make Rain speak so freely."

"Ah."

Grandpa Tong nodded and opened the only game icon on the desktop.

The window popped up, and first an icon consisting of three large characters "Gensokyo" with a red and white yin-yang jade in the background flashed across the screen. Then, a melodious background music slowly sounded.

Hearing this, Nangong Yu smiled slightly, opened the door and went back to her room to sleep and rest. She would be busy starting tomorrow!

......

The next day, Nangong Yu got up early, washed up, and went out to bring back breakfast for his three sons. When he put the breakfast on the table, he quickly noticed that there were obviously half as many tissues as yesterday, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

After waiting for a while, the three people with red eyes slowly walked out of their respective bedrooms. After looking at each other, they looked at the smiling Nangong Yu, and their faces were suddenly filled with embarrassment.

"Get me a basin of hot water."

Kitahara suddenly said to Sugisaki Ken.

"what?"

Glancing at Nangong Yu with some annoyance, Bei Yuan said impatiently: "Wash your hair, what else can you do!"

"Pfft~Okay, okay, I'll pick it up for you right away!"

"Tsk."

Looking back, Bei Yuan looked at Nangong Yu and said, "You are awesome this time."

"I look forward to your performance."

"..."

Then, Kitahara performed a real upside-down hair washing in front of Mr. Kirito's shocked gaze. It has to be said that Kitahara's physical fitness is really outrageous.

After breakfast, the group arrived at the venue in great fanfare. Compared to yesterday when only staff were present, today's venue was much more lively.

Many players who came here for the game stood outside with anticipation, forming small circles around each other and talking excitedly about something.

“There are so many people~”

Standing on tiptoe to look at the endless queue, Kitahara's voice sounded a little emotional.

“This is the most famous mini-game festival in the world. Although the games are not large in scale, there are always many interesting ideas, so it is quite popular among players.”

As a veteran player, Uncle Tong was naturally familiar with these things. They didn't look at them for too long and soon walked in through the staff passage on the side with their work badges.

At this moment, Uncle Tong suddenly approached Nangong Yu, frowned at him and whispered: "Ayu, I feel that the situation will not be very good soon."

"I know."

"Your game is indeed great, but for story-based games, offline exhibitions have too great a disadvantage... Wait, you know?"

"correct."

As a game producer, how could he not know people's concerns? Without fame, doesn't he rely on gimmicks to attract people?

Others may be able to attract players' attention in a short period of time with exquisite and beautiful CG, cool fighting, and unique level design, but what about him? Does he rely on those pixel paintings that have been eliminated for many years?

He originally wanted to rely on word of mouth and buy some press releases for publicity. After all, the game was really good and it wasn't an exaggeration. However, before he did all these, he got a trump card that he could never lose.

"If you had observed carefully yesterday, you would not have asked me this question today."

"?"

Patting Uncle Tong on the shoulder, Nangong Yu said with a smile: "Don't worry, even if there is only a blank CG in my game, this game will be a hit."

"?"

Grandpa Tong didn’t understand why Nangong Yu was so confident, but since he said so, Grandpa Tong could only nod slightly.

Soon, it was time for the exhibition to begin. Beiyuan and his companions were all ready and sat in their seats waiting for the players to arrive.

However, Mr. Tong's worries were not unfounded. During the whole day, their booth was deserted rather than empty. Those who passed by out of curiosity immediately lost interest when they saw it was a pixel game. The few who came up to try it out put down their mice within two minutes and went to watch other games. The only one who stayed for a long time did not even play the game. He just listened to music with headphones on for a long time. There was nothing he could do. In this situation, story-based games are really at a disadvantage.

"Hey, are you okay?"

Sugisaki Ken said to Nangong Yu with some concern.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. This situation is to be expected."

"Well, in today's society, good wine needs no bush. How about you buy some publicity? It would be a shame if such a great game was buried."

“Who said I didn’t promote it?”

The sudden question made Sugisaki Ken stunned for a moment: "Ah? But, today's tourists..."

"Don't worry, the time is almost up. You'll understand in two days. By the way, go to bed early these days and remember to conserve your energy~"

"?"

Chapter 18 Xi'er, you don't want to...

Nangong Yu's performance on the first day was not ideal.

After packing up, Nangong Yu asked his friends to go back to the hotel first, while he avoided the crowd and came to Bronya's booth.

After a busy day, he saw Kiana lying on the table tiredly on the handsome exhibition stand decorated with mecha elements. It was not until Nangong Yu walked in front of him and felt the shadow blocking the light that she raised her eyelids with difficulty.

"Ah, it's Ayu."

His voice was weak, and it was obvious that he was too tired to even say hello. His head was drooped, and even the white hair on his head seemed to have lost its luster.

Judging from the looks of it, Bronya should be doing well today.

"Well, you've worked hard today, Kiana."

"Ah."

Without any modesty, Kiana accepted the compliment. There was nothing she could do about it, since Kiana was basically responsible for all the physical work today.

Seele doesn't like to interact with strangers, Mei has something to do and can't come, Celine is helping Bronya with live streaming to attract attention, and Bronya needs to coordinate the overall situation, so Kiana can only helplessly become the slave.

"Hey, are you here to admit defeat?"

"Give up? No, I just came to check on you guys."

Nangong Yu turned in the direction of the voice and saw Bronya, who was obviously in a good mood, and Seele, who was following behind her and looking at her with shining eyes.

It seemed like he hadn't heard Bronya speak in such a playful tone for a long time. Even at yesterday's party, Bronya spoke very little.

From the time when the game failed for the first time until now, the obviously good results have finally made Bronya's depressed heart relax a little.

Although she was busy all day and still didn't know much about Nangong Yu's situation, Bronya felt that she could open the champagne in advance!

"It looks like you're doing pretty well?"

"Hmph~ It's just so-so, I guess it'll easily make the top ten~"

Bronya is pretending.

Noticing the smile that couldn't be suppressed at all, Nangong Yu laughed secretly in her heart. This sudden childish look was quite cute.
