#315 - Periodic Settlement! Mr. Lu: How did I succeed again? Liu Mengyuan turns into a succubus (2 i
Huang Zhong was frightened by this scene and subconsciously took a step back:
"What are you doing?"
The players remained silent, only continuing to approach while leaning on their crutches.
Limping……
Limping……
Limping……
Soon, these players completely surrounded the hot spring villa.
They silently stared at Huang Zhong, issuing a silent protest.
After this trial event,
no more news of Boli Network came from afar.
On Bilibili, a video made by a prankster called "Why is Huang Zhong a God?" suddenly became popular—
"Huang Zhong, the founder of the Weak Protection Theory, is known as the legendary Continent Shūfū.
The Boli Network he founded is the Whampoa Military Academy of the domestic ACG game circle.
Why is Huang Zhong a god?
Before discussing this question, I want to talk about where others are worse than Huang Zhong.
First is the arrogant Hai Mao, who spent an entire page just to engrave his name on the setting collection.
In comparison, Huang Zhong is very humble.
Then there is Bai Long, who committed the sin of wrath, because he was incompetent and couldn't make XCOM games, so he was furious at Huang Zhong.
This violates a sentence in Huang Zhong's "New Testament": "Gunfight Girl is itself a game full of love and justice."
Then there is Yao Meng, who committed the sin of greed, who became a partner of God just after starting out, but in the end, Yao Meng was blinded by interests and fell in love with Hai Mao, who committed the sin of arrogance,
and summoned the behemoth "Half the Country" when Huang Zhong was in internal and external troubles.
So, Huang Zhong brought down his divine punishment,
Mengmeng's beloved eldest daughter, "Azure Lane", was flamed by the angry Azure people because of the terrible collaboration with "Idol Master" and Vtubers.
Then there is Infukun who committed the sin of sloth, Lin+ who committed the sin of envy, and Thermal Motion who committed the sin of gluttony…
However, Huang Zhong eventually fell.
Cloud Atlas's third test, Boli's Weibo office, and Raymond of Gunfight Girl 2 are all the last mercy that God left to mortals."
……
Pei Shengnan's office.
At this time, the TV was playing various media reports and interviews about Peach Garden and Lu Yu.
Pei Shengnan's fingers tapped lightly on the table, his eyes full of doubt and astonishment.
He rubbed his temples, trying to dispel the surging doubts in his mind through massage, but the more he pressed, the more irritable he became.
He sat blankly in his chair, recovering for a few minutes before he recovered.
Recently, the development of the situation has been too unexpected,
causing him to fall into shock!
Apart from the fierce business battles in the first few years of starting his business, he hadn't had such a performance for a long time.
At first, he didn't take Peach Garden's entry into VR seriously at all.
Because of the entry of Liu's Group and Longteng Group, even big factories like Tenghui very wisely did not join this VR hardware battle.
Other small factories had already accepted the investment of giants and joined the team.
Therefore, in Pei Shengnan's view, Peach Garden was at best a small shrimp trying to stop a chariot!
As the titan in the industry, he would feel that it would dirty his hands to personally crush Peach Garden!
He never expected that he would be surpassed in market share by an unknown junior and taught a lesson by the other party!
What exactly is going on?!
In addition to being shocked, Pei Shengnan couldn't figure it out.
Longteng Group has invested a lot of resources in this VR battle, spending 20 billion on an industry incubation base and blindly acquiring supply chains and startups.
Even the group directly launched a price war, pushing the price of VR equipment below 10,000 yuan, claiming to be "the first VR for young people."
As a result, Lu Yu directly cut off the supply and priced it at 3,999, killing Longteng Group.
How did he do it……
Pei Shengnan fiddled with the teacup in his hand, pondering for a moment,
At this time, on the TV, President Cao of Brilliant Investment was frantically boasting to media reporters about President Lu's old thousand-layer cake.
Listening to these praises, Pei Shengnan suddenly had a flash of inspiration—
Wait, all of this may be in Lu Yu's calculations!
He predicted my prediction, he knew I was going to fight a price war!
So he directly cut off the supply, 3999!
He predicted that I would let Huang Zhong make Gunfight Girl,
so he directly used a love-themed beautiful girl game to snipe!
He predicted that we would stack materials on the hardware to raise costs,
so he directly took a different approach, using silicone-textured other-dimensional touch belts to differentiate and reduce costs!
A promising young man, a promising young man!
A flash of cold light flashed in Pei Shengnan's eyes.
The young people who had fought with Pei Shengnan before could calculate one or two steps of his were already rare,
and Lu Yu's moves and the series of wonderful moves he used were even rarer!
The overwhelming praise in the news media made Pei Shengnan deeply believe in his judgment.
As for why Lu Yu participated in the VR battle and became an enemy of Longteng, Pei Shengnan could easily guess it.
His girlfriend is Liu Mengyuan, the daughter of the Liu family,
This kid must be trying to please his future mother-in-law by provoking a battle with Longteng!
Liu Lan, not bad, you really caught a golden turtle son-in-law…
After figuring all this out, Pei Shengnan called the secretary in:
"Go and gather the presidents of the upstream and downstream of the VR industry chain, I want to have a meeting and plan the next stage of the offensive strategy.
Also, go and investigate whether there are people in the domestic game industry who know Peach Garden and Lu Yu himself very well.
Find a useful person from these people and submit the resume to me."
After the secretary left, Pei Shengnan leaned back in his chair, feeling a little relieved.
Even if Peach Garden has briefly gained the upper hand, the current Peach Garden is still insignificant in the face of Longteng's huge size.
After all, the blue ocean competition for new products is a protracted battle!
It's all about resources and strength.
We will also fight a price war! But you can't catch up with our hardware and resources!
Children who don't listen need to be beaten, let you wake up completely.
Hehe……
……
Shenzhen City, Liu's Group headquarters building, chairman's office.
At this time, Liu Lan was also watching various reports about Peach Garden on TV.
The sunlight penetrated through the glass curtain wall and shone on her legs wearing black silk stockings, shimmering with an alluring luster.
This set of black silk pantyhose with rose lace, paired with leather boots and a hip-hugging skirt, is exactly the classic outfit of Liu Xiawushilang in "Free Mouth Cannon Life\
,"This outfit also appears in many secondary creation videos of Mouth Cannon Life.
For some reason, watching the players in the video frantically swiping the screen with "Sister, please whip me", Liu Lan's heart felt a subtle heat, as if her heart had become young again.
So, recently she likes to wear this set of clothes to the company.
Liu Lan's judgment on Lu Yu's business behavior is basically the same as Pei Shengnan's. It is precisely because Lu Yu predicted the other party's prediction that he achieved the leading market share.
To be honest, after this battle, Liu Lan admired Lu Yu even more.
A few months ago, the group's experts carefully studied Peach Garden's products and concluded that they were very rough.
The architecture is all public architecture, and there is no self-operated production base, so the cost must be high…
As a result, whether it is the trial version that does not follow the routine, or the other-dimensional touch belt that lowers costs, this kid has won by surprise!
She lit a cigarette and slowly exhaled a series of smoke rings.
Lu Yu this person,
is very family-oriented in life, and it seems that Yuanyuan is very satisfied.
He is so daring and fighting in his career, he is indeed a good candidate for son-in-law.
However, it is not so easy to become my Liu family's son-in-law. She will give this kid some new tests.
After that, Liu Lan called Shi Yi, the person in charge of Youyi Company waiting outside the door.
Liu Lan:
"Our VR game console "Youyi Paradise" has sold well in this round, and the launch games are also mediocre. I will give you a performance bonus this month."
Shi Yi was overjoyed and quickly flattered:
"Everything is due to the chairman's foresight and sitting on the mountain to watch the tigers fight, allowing Longteng Group to focus on Peach Garden,
Moreover, the chairman very strategically made the decision to make our games compatible with Peach Garden's Shenyou, which has also greatly increased game sales…"
"Okay, okay."
Liu Lan raised her hand to stop the other party's flattery,
"I will give you a new task. Pei Shengnan was unsuccessful and suffered a loss at Lu Yu's place. I expect he will definitely not give up.
Therefore, you will be responsible for negotiating with Peach Garden later, persuading our two VR business lines to integrate resources and conduct joint development of some host technologies.
Moreover, in terms of the game software lineup, you have to come up with a flagship masterpiece that can truly reflect the VR performance of our Liu's Group."
Liu Lan has predicted that Pei Shengnan will definitely launch a large-scale work with extreme materials to reflect the performance advantages of his game console.
To put it bluntly, the two main works in this round of console wars, whether it is "Gunfight Girl 2" or "My Wife is a Savior", are relatively lightweight beautiful girl themes.
Currently, there is no real "flagship escort masterpiece" on each game console.
A flagship work is the face of a game console and cannot be lost.
Cooperating with Peach Garden is also to help Liu's Group increase its chances of winning. After all, her real goal is to win the upcoming competition with Longteng Group.
Liu Lan narrowed her eyes slightly.
Lu Yu, let me see what surprises you can bring, hehe.
……
April 15, morning, Peach Garden Villa.
"Ah… the leisurely days of doing nothing are so cool."
Lu Yu, who was paralyzed in the massage chair in the workstation, stretched comfortably.
At this time, he was warmed by the sun.
He held a cat in his left hand and swiped the mouse in his right hand, playing casual card games on the computer.
Another computer screen was playing animation series.
The table was full of small snacks such as happy water and potato chips.
As noon approached, he was planning to have Teacher Fan Jing make French cuisine for lunch.
He glanced at the calendar and suddenly realized that this round of settlement cycle was about to be settled.
He hadn't asked about the company's affairs for many days, and he hadn't read the industry news. He didn't know if there had been a **** storm in the game industry?
However, recently, the emotions of the company's colleagues seem to be quite stable. Unlike the excitement that was full of excitement when the previous rounds of cycles were about to end,
Very good!
This shows that they have completely lost the motivation to roll in under the siege of Longteng Group and Liu's Group, and their hearts are silent and calm.
All this is due to the multiple lines of defense he set up in this round of the cycle:
Mao Wuyong, who has been failing in entrepreneurship, Hua Wu, who has no development experience, and the strict implementation of the Leisurely Daily King and Werewolf Killing system.
So many layers of defense, layer by layer protection!
You just tell me, how are you going to roll in? Hahahaha……
Lu Yu slid the mouse happily and randomly clicked on a page of a financial website.
In an instant, his eyes were filled with words such as "young and promising", "genius", "weathervane", and "miracle".
At first, he didn't take it seriously.
Heh, which little King of the technology circle has successfully started a business and become a dark horse?
The latest novel is first published on Liǔ 9 Shū Bā!
But, this has nothing to do with him anymore.
In this life, Lao Tzu has long been insulated from involution!
Lu Yu was about to close the webpage,
Suddenly!
He glimpsed his name in these titles.
His hand shook, and the mouse almost slipped from his hand. He stared at the screen for a while, then breathed a sigh of relief.
Good guy, you scared me.
It's just the same name!
He mocked his own jitteriness while clicking on one of the news.
Then, he saw his previous photos of attending events placed on the news page.
Rumble!
Lu Yu was struck by lightning and froze on the spot.
The screen full of praise made him fall into a brief state of shock, as if time had stagnated at that moment.
His mouth opened slightly, wanting to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn't say anything.
He kept turning pages, and the trembling of his fingers made the typing a little chaotic.
The cat seemed to sense the emotional fluctuations of the two-legged beast and made a soft purr in his arms.
Lu Yu's heart was like a stormy sea at this time—
Wait!
Damn it, wait for me!
What's going on?
Which dimension of me is reported on in this news?
What the **** did I do?
Why are you saying that about me!
……
It took a long time for Lu Yu to stabilize his emotions and gradually began to understand what had happened recently:
Taoyuan Lightyear has now reached a record-breaking 20 million sales!
It's crazy everywhere, the reputation has broken the circle, and it's even famous overseas!
And "My Wife is a Savior" has once again broken Taoyuan Township's highest sales record!
Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!
He finally knew why the company was so calm relatively speaking.
Because dealing with various production orders and game updates has far exceeded the size of Taoyuan Township's small company, occupying a lot of working time for this group of small volumes, they have not even had time to celebrate!
If that's the case, then leisure points...
Lu Yu tremblingly closed the system's do-not-disturb mode.
A massive amount of system notifications began to flood the screen:
[Chu Xiong used the night time to process the game console firmware upgrade, Leisure Points -500]
[Mao Wuyong spent a lot of time processing OEM orders, triggering a critical hit and a 5-hit combo, Leisure Points -500]
[Hua Wu spent a lot of energy making game patches and attending events, triggering a critical hit and a 10-hit combo, Leisure Points -1200]
...
Lu Yu's blood pressure rose as he watched, and he didn't dare to look any further.
This month, the leisure point income of 300 employees in Peach Blossom Village, compared with last month, has a growth rate of -130%!
That is to say, not only did he not earn a single leisure point this month, but he also lost 30% of last month's income!
"Ah...this...ah, I, I..."
Lu Yu directly transformed into Wang Situ, clutching his chest in pain, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood.
The employees in nearby work stations saw Lu Yu so excited about the news reporting on him, and they discussed it in the development group:
"Pfft, look, those news reports have made our CEO Lu so happy!"
"Yeah, it's because CEO Lu has always led by example in educating us to be humble and low-key, so we've been so calm recently. I didn't expect CEO Lu himself to be unable to restrain his joy!"
"I think, one should enjoy life to the fullest when one is successful, CEO Lu should express his happiness generously."
"No, it is precisely because CEO Lu is the highest manager that he must appear calm to stabilize the morale and let us avoid arrogance and impetuosity."
"Yes, in short, we only need to execute, and CEO Lu is like a helmsman, facing the turbulent waves of the Dragon Soar Group. He bears so much mental pressure that we don't know!"
Speaking of this, everyone couldn't laugh anymore, and their eyes were slightly moist:
"Looking at it this way, CEO Lu must have been deliberately suppressing his emotions until he couldn't hold it in anymore."
"He really is, I'm so touched!"
"The more it is like this, the more we must work hard to repay CEO Lu's kindness!"
Lu Yu had just calmed down his emotions at his workstation when a system prompt suddenly popped up in front of him:
[30 nearby employees of Peach Blossom Village are moved by your responsible management and vow to work harder, Leisure Points +250]
"Pfft--"
Lu Yu spurted out a mouthful of old blood and almost fell off his seat like Wang Situ.
You, you bunch of little involution kings, deducted nearly ten thousand points from me this month, and then gave me 250 points as a bonus, and also mocked me, right?!
Lu Yu drank several more mouthfuls of water, and then accepted the reality like accepting his fate.
Without a doubt, in this round of the cycle, he suffered a series of backstabs!
The first one to backstab him was Xia Shangyu. I asked you, the ace headhunter, to help me find a team that would slack off, but you insisted on finding me a top team.
Then there were Mao Wuyong and Hua Wu. Are these the achievements that a failed entrepreneur and a slacking otaku should make?
The people above are fine, after all, they spend time with him day and night, and there is a possibility of misunderstanding Lu Yu's intentions.
But what's going on with this distribution channel?!
Why didn't he recruit people in the distribution channel in the first place? It was to give the VR product a final layer of insurance!
As a result, he found out after investigation that an investment circle called [China Investors Club] took the initiative to undertake the initial distribution task of Peach Blossom Dream Tour.
It was their addition of fuel to the fire that completely broke Peach Blossom Dream Tour out of the circle!
Lu Yu was dumbfounded.
He never expected that there would be people in the investor circle who would backstab him?!
I don't even know you guys from that club!
Do you trust me that much?
And that CEO Cao, we only met once, and I almost forgot about you. Am I really that good? Why are you praising me like this?
Lu Yu was stunned when a system prompt popped up in front of him:
[This round of the cycle is about to be settled, the current leisure points are 18658 points, redeeming...]
[1,865,800 yuan has been credited to your personal account.]
[The next settlement cycle is: 120 days later]
Good heavens, even fewer leisure points than the previous round!
Lu Yu was feeling down,
Suddenly!
The system continued to prompt:
[Congratulations, you have completed one of the "Surprise Missions: The More the Merrier" in this round of the cycle]
[During this round of the cycle, the host has earned points from 300 employees of Peach Blossom Village, and each employee has earned at least 100 points]
[Issuing a successful mission reward: 30,000 leisure points, redeeming...]
[3 million yuan has been credited to your personal account.]
Seeing this prompt, Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then ecstatic!
Good heavens, it turns out that the system mission adopts the historical highest record system.
As long as the employee's points have ever reached 100 points, even if they are deducted later, it counts as completing the mission!
Thank goodness!
Lu Yu felt relieved, and an additional 3 million yuan was credited to his account, which was ultimately a great thing.
Fortunately, I invented the Leisurely Daily King and Werewolf Killing system. Am I really a genius?
...
At this time, Liu Mengyuan, who was sitting not far from him, also received a system prompt:
[Gained 16053 proficiency points in this round of the cycle]
[Among them, proficiency points related to career development are 10392 points]
"Yay!"
Liu Mengyuan cheered excitedly.
Finally!
After her unremitting efforts, proficiency points related to career development have exceeded those painful doting wife and life proficiency points!
She felt that her luck had exploded in this round of the cycle, and everything was in her plan!
For example, Mao Wuyong's entrepreneurial accumulation can just become the technological reserve of Peach Blossom Dream Tour.
Hua Wu was originally writing romance novels, and with the Dream Come True guarantee system, it is naturally foolproof!
The goal of becoming a female business leader is one step closer!
Liu Mengyuan was secretly delighted when the system continued to prompt:
[Unfortunately, the "Surprise Mission: Ever Upward" requires you to earn 50 proficiency points from 300 company employees. Only 295 employees have achieved this goal, so the mission failed]
[You have entered the "Dark Enchantress" state]
[In this state, you will only awaken skills related to combat, and the probability of both parties starting a war when alone with the target is greatly increased.]
[Effective target: Lu Yu]
[Effective time: 120 days]
The smile on Liu Mengyuan's pretty face instantly froze.
No!
It's definitely not right!
Why did this lady earn so many proficiency points, but the mission still failed?!
Where is the problem?!
She clicked on the mission details and was instantly dumbfounded.
It turned out that the five people she was missing were the five tiger generals who were dealt with by Lu Yu in the werewolf killing system!
"Ah...this...ah, I, I..."
Liu Mengyuan directly transformed into Queen Situ, clutching her chest in pain, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood.
At this time, the surrounding colleagues covered their mouths and snickered:
"Look, look, it's really worthy of being a couple, even the excited emotions are emerging at the same time!"
