The two of them strolled leisurely along the ancient street, browsing the snack stalls.
"I'm craving takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls)."
Liu Mengyuan couldn't resist stopping at the takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls) stall.
It was a small stall filled with golden, crispy, and translucent takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls), neatly arranged.
Each takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls) was evenly coated with a layer of shiny sauce, with a golden and tempting exterior, a juicy interior, and a fragrant aroma.
Next to the stall were some side dishes, including soy sauce, mustard, and mayonnaise.
Lu Yu bought a box of takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls) and carefully brushed on the sauce.
"I'm holding Dabai(Dabai: name of the cat), can you feed me?"
Liu Mengyuan held up the cat in her arms.
Because Lu Yu's house always has delicious food, Dabai(Dabai: name of the cat) was about to completely defect; it now spends more time at Lu Yu's house than her own.
Lu Yu picked up a takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls) and held it to her mouth. She took a bite, swallowing it like a cat.
After biting into it, the takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls) instantly melted in her mouth, releasing a rich seafood broth.
"So good!"
Liu Mengyuan said while chewing.
【You and Liu Mengyuan tasted takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls), feeling happy and resonating, leisure points +20】
Lu Yu remembered that when he was in college, he also loved to eat street snacks like takoyaki(takoyaki: octopus balls) and egg pancakes, which were cheap and satisfying.
The setting sun shone on the bluestone path, making the ancient street appear peaceful and serene.
The two walked side by side to a small bridge. Liu Mengyuan's fingers gently strummed the bridge railing. The stream flowed gently, and the setting sun reflected on the water.
In the light of dusk, Liu Mengyuan smiled like a flower.
A trace of doting appeared in Lu Yu's eyes as he looked at her slightly closed peach blossom eyes, and his fingers moved unconsciously.
He originally wanted to experience holding hands while strolling the street in advance, as practice for their future life as a couple.
But seeing that she was holding a cat in both hands, he dismissed the idea.
The two came to the bridge, standing shoulder to shoulder, overlooking the reflections in the water and the cruise ship in the distance.
Liu Mengyuan's long hair cascaded down her fragrant shoulders like a waterfall, swaying in the breeze.
Looking at the reflections of the two people on the water, Liu Mengyuan took out her phone to take a picture.
"Don't you think these two people under the water are like another version of us in another world?"
Liu Mengyuan thought of her past life. She never dreamed that one day she could live with Lu Yu like this, living a small life and strolling the streets shoulder to shoulder.
With him, with a cat, with sunshine, and with a common cause to strive for.
What more could she ask for in this life?
Lu Yu also sighed:
"Maybe, in that space-time under the water, we are all doing our own things and have not met at all."
In the parallel space-time of his previous life, Lu Yu was working as an intern at Tenghui, enjoying the blessings of 996(996: working from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., 6 days a week).
"Your bag is quite heavy. What's in it?"
Lu Yu opened the bag and was immediately shocked. It turned out that Liu Mengyuan had bought another pile of turtles from the aquatic product store.
The turtles' strong heads were constantly moving forward and contracting.
Lu Yu looked complicated.
Girl, if you keep trying to supplement me like this,
Sooner or later... sooner or later I will have to supplement you with knowledge not found in biology textbooks.
...
In the distance, Fan Langtao in a taxi happened to see the two of them showing affection, and he directly crushed his back molars.
Look!
You're even planning to stew turtle soup tonight!
It seems that tonight will probably be another in-depth and simple, all-encompassing battle!
Envy!
A touch of bitterness arose in Fan Langtao's heart. He first didn't expect that his career in Youyi(Youyi: name of the company) would be so short, directly sent away by Lu Yu's one-two punch.
It was already miserable enough, but before leaving, he was forcibly shown a wave of affection by Lu Yu and Liu Mengyuan.
That is the dream goddess of thousands of Jianghai(Jianghai: name of the university) University boys.
Heh, I guess she will be miserable when she gets home tonight.
Both career and women were severely crit by Lu Yu!
Fan Langtao sighed to the sky,
No wonder, when eating that day, the other party had a confident and indifferent attitude.
Could it be that all of this was in this kid's calculations?
I fuck!
I was defeated so thoroughly!?
Looking back carefully at the past six months, after Lu Yu became the owner of Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company), popular products have emerged frequently, and they have been developing rapidly towards animation, game platforms, and game engines, unstoppable.
Is this kid cheating?
...
The latest novel is first published in the six nine books bar!
Youyi(Youyi: name of the company) company headquarters, Shi Yi's office.
"Is this President Lu cheating?"
After initially experiencing the Taoyuan Huanjie(Taoyuan Huanjie: name of the platform) platform, the expression of doubt on Shi Yi's face was no less than Fan Langtao's.
He completely couldn't understand how Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company) could achieve such a high level of technology and product power in such a short period of time with such a small team.
He hugged his head slightly, desperately rubbing his temples.
In so many years of his career, he felt so frustrated for the first time.
Because he found that not only was his new game "Boss Simulator" being beaten by "Mouth Cannon Life\
,"Even in the initial comparison of game platforms, Youyi(Youyi: name of the company) Workshop seemed inferior.
A sense of crisis, worry and anxiety gradually occupied Shi Yi's mind.
The game platform is one of Youyi's(Youyi: name of the company) basic disks, and its importance is no less than that of "Fantasy Westward Journey". Taoyuan Huanjie(Taoyuan Huanjie: name of the platform) really has the strength to attract their users now.
If further measures are not taken, Youyi(Youyi: name of the company) Workshop will gradually decline due to the rise of the new platform sooner or later.
By that time, the other party will be like a fish entering the ocean, a hidden dragon rising from the abyss, and will no longer be able to be contained.
There can only be one overlord in the game platform market, and there must be no loss!
Shi Yi folded his hands and held his chin, making Commander Ikari from Evangelion gesture.
Okay, Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company), you're doing this, right?
Then don't blame me for using traditional skills - poaching!
The talent mobility in the Internet IT industry is already higher than in traditional industries. As long as there are professional HR, with a little inducement, Shi Yi is confident that he can completely hollow out the other party's three production teams.
Headhunters take action to dig Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company) into an empty shell, tear the game production team apart, and then Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company) will slowly go to destruction!
Even if they can't dig people, it doesn't matter. High salaries are enough to make employees' hearts flutter and make them mistakenly believe that the market market is this price, thereby causing the team to disunity.
This method is unbearable not only for a fledgling small studio, but also for general medium and large manufacturers!
Thinking of this, Shi Yi's expression relaxed. The reason why he is so confident in this trick is because,
Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company) is, after all, a newly established small company. According to normal corporate logic, it should be reducing efficiency and increasing costs.
Therefore, Taoyuanxiang's(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company) benefits are destined to be not good, and the development space is not good. Youyi(Youyi: name of the company) company is backed by Liushi(Liushi: name of the family) Group, and the other party can't rob talent from themselves at all.
Moreover, Shi Yi doesn't think that Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company) has an efficient R\u0026D team. They are probably just draw a cake in game engine technology.
Because many of the backbones of Taoyuanxiang(Taoyuanxiang: name of the company) are just interns eliminated by Youyi(Youyi: name of the company). As long as they call them, they will obediently come back.
Thinking of this, Shi Yi dialed a call to the headquarters.
...
Thursday.
Lu Yu finished his sleep after waking up on the sofa bed in the workstation and yawned.
The 15th of this month has just passed, and it is the monthly platform account settlement day again. Youyi(Youyi: name of the company) company's new payment has arrived.
In the last month's account period, the total sales of "Cat Girl Paradise Adventure" soared to 700,000, bringing in 1.5 million yuan in new income.
