#174 - Hegemony is actually me? (Request for subscription)
Wang Su had the illusion that the office temperature was dropping rapidly, and with the dim light, it felt like the lair of the Ice Queen.
Sharp light flashed in Liu Lan's eyes, and she said in a deep voice:
"How far have the two of them progressed?"
Wang Su avoided looking directly into Liu Lan's turbulent eyes and said cautiously:
"From what I can see, the two of them are just roommates..."
Liu Lan sighed:
"They've already started living together; at this rate, it's only a matter of time before they become an item."
"It's all my incompetence. Please forgive me, Chairman."
"Alright."
Liu Lan waved her hand and lit another cigarette for herself.
"You need to continue monitoring them, and I'm giving you the authority to take direct action to test whether this man is reliable, such as tempting him with benefits. If he's not reliable, find a way to get Yuan Yuan out of that house first."
Liu Lan's voice was devoid of any emotion.
"Yes."
Wang Su agreed verbally and left the office.
In the corridor, her heart was pounding, and her steps were heavy.
She didn't dare to tell the chairman that she had already taken action without authorization.
And the result? First, a spider climbed Mount Olympus,
and then a fish unlocked the seal of the Gaia Temple.
That outrageous fish,
not only reached the summit of the sacred mountain but even held Gaia's secret treasure in its mouth...
Thinking of this,
she subconsciously tightened her collar.
She began to worry about whether she could complete the task successfully.
For some reason, she had a premonition that she would encounter more embarrassing things on Mount Olympus, the Mells Plains, and other mysterious areas...
But soon, she patted her face and cheered herself up.
No, she was a dignified special forces soldier!
She would never be bullied by strange creatures again, absolutely not!
...
September 26th, Monday.
Sitting at his workstation, Lu Yu looked at the cash in his personal account, feeling very pleased.
After three cycles, he had earned 900,000 from the system by collecting leisure points.
In 2012, it was already a fantasy for a recent college graduate to earn this much money in less than three months after graduation.
Having been reborn, his main goal was to lie down and enjoy life.
The hardware conditions of the Peach Blossom Spring Villa were already very good, but the configuration of his rental house was still lacking.
Therefore, the previous weekend, he specifically ordered many things to be delivered to the rental house:
lazy sofa, electric massage chair, foot bath, electric sunshade, coffee machine, wine cabinet, eye massager, air purifier, aromatherapy device...
By the way, he also ordered some high-end home appliances for his parents.
The old-fashioned drum washing machine at home was almost turning into a tractor. Gao Xiuli had always been reluctant to replace it, but this time he insisted on letting the old couple throw it away.
In addition to the washing machine and refrigerator, the color TV was also replaced with a 4K LCD TV.
"You just graduated and only earn a few bucks. You're just wasting money."
On the phone that weekend, Lu Youkang's tone was a mixture of blame and joy.
"Just use it if I buy it for you. You two old people have been working hard for most of your lives. Can't you enjoy it when you're old?"
This set of things cost Lu Yu more than 200,000.
Previously, Li Hongmei handled the company's purchases. Now that he personally placed the order, he realized that
the feeling of buying things mindlessly was so good!
Lu Yu planned to save the remaining 700,000.
After all, he didn't have his own house in Jianghai City.
Not to mention the houses in Tomson Riviera that cost several small fortunes, even a decent penthouse would cost at least four million.
As long as he gets a few more houses before the next real estate boom,
he can live a life of financial freedom as a landlord and live a relatively successful life,
Oh, hehehehe!
Lu Yu stretched and began to process work emails.
He would continue to earn a lot of points in this cycle.
However, as soon as he opened his work email, he was stunned.
His mailbox was filled with various cooperation invitations. The senders included video platforms such as Tenghui Video, iQiyi, and Cool You Tudou, as well as some provincial TV station animation channels.
In their emails, without exception, there was only one purpose: to request copyright cooperation for the Cat Paradise animation!
??????
Lu Yu was full of question marks.
Wasn't Gong Qijun slowly grinding away at this animation? How did it seem like the entire animation circle knew about it now?
After being reborn, he focused on leisure and enjoyment, and resolutely did not check any work messages or news during his vacation.
So he had a faint bad feeling in his heart,
Could it be that Gong Qijun, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, had also betrayed the revolution and created a super hit for him?
Lu Yu tremblingly clicked on the Bilibili homepage, and his heart stopped instantly—
The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
The animation promotional poster for "Cat Paradise Adventure" was hung in a prominent position on the front page of the website.
Clicking in, the number of real-time followers had already risen to 200,000, and this number was still increasing at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Holy shit!
Lu Yu continued to tremble and watched all the things from the animation screening, to the appreciation news from various media, and the plot analysis videos and fan creations on the broadcast hot list.
Damn, the national hegemony of the season is actually myself?
Of course, that's not important. What's important is, what is Peach Blossom Dream doing now? Are they overwhelmed by their achievements and working hard in the company?
His breathing gradually became heavy, and he tremblingly turned off the system's do-not-disturb mode.
Soon, a large number of system notifications came pouring in:
[Animation director Gong Qijun, designed the script for episode 4 on the weekend, causing fatigue, Leisure Points -8]
[Animation deputy director Xin Haicheng, designed the storyboard for episode 4 on the weekend, causing fatigue, Leisure Points -6]
[Animation screenwriter Xu Yuanxuan, suffered hair loss due to conceiving the story during the holiday, triggering a critical hit, Leisure Points -15]
[Peach Blossom Dream editors Liu Hong and Wang Ji, in order to compete for the editing effect of animation episode 4, worked overtime on Thursday, triggering resonance and combo, Leisure Points -23]
...
[20 employees of Peach Blossom Dream, in order to ensure the effect of animation episode 4, worked from home on the weekend, causing fatigue to resonate and link, Leisure Points -500]
...
Lu Yu looked at the dense system light curtains, with a look of astonishment,
Damn it!
Unexpectedly, the last lying-flat position he had high hopes for had also completely fallen, and even when stabbing him in the back, it came with critical hits, combos, and cleaves!
Lu Yu let out a bitter smile,
I never expected that this group of people at Peach Blossom Dream were still in a state of resentment and lying flat when they were acquired,
How did they evolve into the ultimate invincible workaholics?
I still give you pocket money from time to time, is this how you repay me?
Lu Yu scratched his head and continued to pull down the system notifications in resignation,
Sure enough, the game project on the general company's side was continuing to give him more "surprises":
[Motivator group employee Mo Xiaoxuan, caused fatigue due to conceiving the content plan for the new version, triggering a critical hit, Leisure Points -18]
[Motivator group employee Yao Jun, felt fatigue due to handling server fluctuations caused by too many players, Leisure Points -10]
[Island owner group employee He Chuming, felt overwhelmed due to handling new BUGs caused by the increase in players, Leisure Points -12]
[Cat Paradise group employee Ye Hui, felt fatigue due to docking with the animation group, Leisure Points -8]
...
[Employees of Peach Blossom Village's general company, felt fatigue due to the game user growth exceeding expectations, handling BUGs and emergencies, triggering resonance and linkage, Leisure Points -700]
Lu Yu sighed helplessly.
The thing he feared most had still happened,
Because the works in his hand became unexpected hits,
The pressure brought by the number of players, business cooperation, game BUGs, and development progress all increased sharply,
The entire business line was forced to work like crazy.
This also led to a further expansion of the leisure point loss gap,
Now the point balance on the system account has become a heaven-defying [-2265]
Monster, this cycle has only just begun for less than 10 days!
He rubbed his eyebrows and called Li Hongmei over.
Since the reason why many people are losing points is the surge in workload and feeling overwhelmed, then the top priority is—
Expand, continue to expand!
