You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 361: End of the cycle! Lu Yu has fallen into a male succubus, will there be a new cycle of card battles? (2 in 1)

It took Lu Yu a long time to calm down and see the background data clearly:

Since its launch, the sales of "The End" have exceeded 2800 million copies.

As a result, the sales of the Utopia Lightyear console soared, and now has reached a record-breaking sales of 3500 million!
There was a crazy buying frenzy everywhere, and the product gained wide acclaim, even becoming famous overseas.

Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!

He finally understood why the company's employees looked so calm.

Because Xiaohutuxian’s hardware orders have exploded!

The game is also a hit!

Although Taoyuan Township is struggling to recruit people, its current processing capacity is still far beyond the size of Taoyuan Township, a small company.

Whether it is the game R&D center or the Xiaohutuxian Company, these little roller coasters have started to roll again, and they have no time to celebrate!

If that's the case, then the leisure points...

Lu Yu clicked on the system notification helplessly.

Massive system notifications began to flood the screen:
Zhao Yuhang used his break time to upgrade the controller's peripheral firmware, earning him 700 points.

[Hu Tu spent a lot of time processing orders from the OEM factory, resulting in a critical hit and a 7-hit combo, and his leisure points were -700]

[Milk Candy spent a lot of energy on making game patches, a critical hit and 12-hit combo occurred, leisure points -1200]

……

Lu Yu's blood pressure rose as he watched, and he didn't dare to watch any further.

Since acquiring Xiaohutuxian, Taoyuanxiang now has a total of 650 employees.
The growth rate of leisure point income compared to last month was -150%!

In other words, this month's point income is negative, which is 5% of last month's income!
"Hehe, hehe..." Lu Yu fell into a helpless giggle.

At this time, the surrounding employees saw Lu Yu's reaction and whispered in the development group:
"Boss Lu must have finally smiled with relief after seeing the game go viral online, right?"

"But let's be honest, Mr. Lu's reaction is too calm, isn't it?"

"Look, he's truly worthy of being President Lu! Now, no matter how successful the game is, it can't shake President Lu's heart!"

"What is the true god of business? Tactical retreat.jpg"

Although he was smiling on the surface, Lu Yu's heart was in turmoil at this moment!

There is no doubt that he was stabbed in the back again in this cycle!

The first one is Xiaohutuxian Company, but this time he no longer has the energy to blame Xia Shangyu, because even in his eyes, Xiaohutuxian Company is quite bad. Who could have expected that it would stand up so directly.

Then there is Milk Candy’s studio. Why aren’t you LSPs affected by ice cream?

Also, what the hell is wrong with you competitors?

That Fan Langtao, I actually thought highly of you, but it turns out you’re worse than trash!
"Crossfire: Heroes of Reverse War" was originally expected to reach sales of nearly 2000 million, but you relied on bugs and various weird operations to destroy yourself, and the sales volume dropped to 1300 million sets, which sank your own flagship.

What’s the matter? Do you have such a big grudge against me?

Would you rather commit suicide so that I can earn less leisure points?
And that Wu Liang!

When you came to visit Taoyuan Township before, I thought you were a smart person. How come I didn’t realize that you were such a stupid idiot?

My promotional video is so bad, what are you doing to help me promote it?

Also, I have asked the company team to hand over the technology of the extra-dimensional tactile belt to you without reservation.
The food is right in front of you, and with such a great start, how the hell can you mess it up?
Give you a chance, you are useless!
Looking at these competitors who had originally had high hopes for him, Lu Yu was extremely angry.

As for the competing products of other small and medium-sized manufacturers, Lu Yu doesn't want to say more.

Whether it is Dilidili, Chuangmeng Tiandi, or Nanshanju, their new products are not very popular and have not even made a splash.
However, the PJSH project of Mi Le You, which he had placed the highest hopes on, was stillborn!
Lu Yu was also confused when he found out about this news.

Cai Yuhao, what's wrong with you? What happened to the flagship project that you promised to lead personally and ensure it is foolproof?

While Lu Yu was confused, a system prompt popped up in front of him:
[This cycle is about to end. The current leisure points are 53625 points. Exchange is in progress...]

5362500 yuan has been credited to my personal account.

[The next settlement cycle is: 120 days later]

After seeing this tip, Lu Yu, who was originally feeling depressed, was instantly cheered up!
Wow, in one settlement cycle, the point income directly exceeded 500 million, which can be said to have set a new record!
Lu Yu could probably guess why he was able to create this record.
In this cycle, the size of the staff has more than doubled due to the acquisition of Xiaohutuxian.

Many of Xiaohutuxian's employees are toilers screwing screws on the assembly line. How could they have ever enjoyed such treatment and benefits?
This is like evolving directly from primitive society to the cyber age.

So, when Lu Yu looked back at the records, he found that during the period when he just acquired Xiaohutuxian Company, the workers on the assembly line had been getting points like crazy, and even if he gave them some extra pocket money, they could get hundreds of critical hits!

Seeing this, Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Right!

Since this world is so inward-looking, the majority of people are still the working class.

As long as Lu Yu continues to spread the various benefits and corporate culture of Taoyuan Township, there will be many opportunities to earn points!

The system continues to prompt:

["Surprise Mission 2: Age of Fun" is being settled...]

[The host has successfully acquired a subsidiary company that develops toys. The host has accumulated 34995 leisure points from the employees of this new company.]

[Unfortunately, the host's mission failed because 5 points were not met.]

[Penalty for Mission Failure: Male Succubus]

[Penalty Description: The host will receive a new debuff, which lasts for 120 days. When the host is alone with their love interest, the probability of attracting their active battle increases significantly, and the host will be given a combat status of "Basic Strength Lv1"

Bottom Strength Lv1: During combat, even if exhausted and confused, you will continue to maintain your fighting posture until the battle ends (this skill upgrades with the number of battles)

Seeing this system prompt, Lu Yu almost spit out blood again!

5 points! Why is it only 5 points off!!!

Lu Yu slid the system records with trembling fingers.

Sure enough, the success of "The Last Line" caused Xiaohutuxian Company's work intensity to increase significantly in the last month, completing the ultimate backstab on him!
Lu Yu's heart was bleeding. He remembered that the buff rewarded by this task could triple the leisure points he would get in the next cycle!
such a pity!
Originally, if it weren't for these little scroll kings backstabbing him, he would have earned much more in this cycle. Now, not only did he lose points, but he was also accurately backstabbed by them, resulting in the mission being unable to be completed. He was in great pain.

In the next cycle, these little kings will not be given any chance!

As he was beating his chest and stamping his feet, he suddenly caught sight of Liu Mengyuan, who was sitting next to him, secretly glancing in his direction.

The way this girl looks at me is almost tearing my hair out...

Ok?
Could it be that the halo took effect so quickly?
Lu Yu glanced at the debuff effect description again, muttering in his heart:

If you think about it carefully, Liu Mengyuan has become more and more bold recently, not only using his hands and feet, but even his absolute domain.

Moreover, when he traveled to Japan, he was taken directly to the restroom in the carriage by the other party and stayed there for an hour.

God knows what else this girl is going to do to me. I hope my body can handle it...

Prompts continued to pop up in front of Lu Yu:
[Congratulations on completing the extra mission of the cycle: reward: a random surprise lottery draw]

Then, the lucky draw wheel began to spin, and then burst into orange light:

[Grand Rally Level 3: For the next 120 days, fans of Taoyuan Township will receive a 200% increase in leisure points when participating in game exhibitions.]

Lu Yu was delighted when he saw it.
Another good buff for earning points!

At the last EASTJOY game show, he earned a lot of leisure points from fans who came to visit.

In this cycle, if you participate in international exhibitions with greater scale and influence, it might have a miraculous effect! And!

Attending the international game exhibition, Taoyuan Township will face international giants such as Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft.

Their experience in the gaming market must be higher than that of domestic manufacturers.
By then, facing the pressure brought by this level of competition, employees will definitely be completely exhausted, give up on internal competition, and just lie down and relax, right?
This is a great idea that kills two birds with one stone!
[Received new additional tasks for this cycle]

[Additional Task: Before the end of the period, release a new VR game developed by Taoyuanxiang Company. This game must be a two-player game, and the project budget must be no less than 5 million.]

[Task Reward: Random Surprise Effect]

When Lu Yu saw this new task, he felt a little relieved.

Two-player battle!

sure!
In fact, after playing card games for the past few days, he already had some preliminary ideas in his mind.
That is, Taoyuanxiang’s next major work will be a collectible card battle game that can be played on VR devices!
Moreover, this product is not only a game software, Taoyuan Township will also sell offline physical cards!

The reason why Lu Yu made this decision was not to expand new business lines,
Quite the contrary!

Through the success of "The Last Line", Lu Yu deeply reflected on his past business strategies.

He previously thought that choosing a niche subject matter would be doomed to become unpopular in the market, and that it would be defeated by the giants, and the employees would completely give up, and the anti-involution cause would be stable.

But unexpectedly, although the subject matter is unpopular, there is very little competition, which allows these little scroll kings from Taoyuan Township to accidentally succeed!
And now, he decided to advance into the TCG card field, which has become a fierce battlefield, and fight to the death in this red ocean market!
Lu Yu’s use of the phrase “bloody head” is not an exaggeration at all!

Currently, the global card game market is monopolized by three giants: Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, and Yu-Gi-Oh!

The scale of these three companies is quite large, and they have formed relatively mature rules, secondary markets and global competitions.

Over the years, new card games have continued to emerge, trying to challenge the status of these three companies, but they were all defeated.

With Taoyuan Township's current size, it is easy to imagine what the consequences would be if it rashly entered this market.

To put it bluntly, it is not easy to make a TCG game into a hit. There are requirements for card design, IP, and game rules.
But if you go in the direction of mediocrity and failure, there are too many failed card games to refer to. There are countless card games under Bandai Namco alone, and every one of them fails.

Isn’t it so easy to make a flop product?

Thinking of this, Lu Yu's mouth curled up happily.

……

At this moment, Liu Mengyuan, who was sitting not far from him, also saw a system prompt pop up in front of him:
[Gained 83050 proficiency points in this cycle]

[Among them, the proficiency points related to career development are 39392 points]

Liu Mengyuan's pretty face froze instantly.

Wow, in the last cycle, we finally managed to get the proportion of businesses earning proficiency points to over 50%.

How come it's coming down again in this cycle?!
Where is the problem?!

She clicked on the details on the system interface and was stunned.

It turned out that although a lot of proficiency points were earned from the employees of Xiaohutuxian Company, because the company benefits arranged by Lu Yu were even more exaggerated, the employees were showing off their points and enjoying life for the first three months!

"Ah... this... ah, I... I..."

Being stabbed in the back by Lu Yu again, Liu Mengyuan covered his chest in pain and almost vomited blood.

At this time, the colleagues around him covered their mouths and laughed:
"They are a couple after all. Even the joy they feel after their careers are successful is exactly the same."

Afterwards, the system continued to prompt her:

["Surprise Mission 2: Playing with Things Doesn't Lose One's Spirit" is being settled]

Your company has successfully acquired a new toy company and has accumulated 35000 business-related proficiency points.

[Congratulations on receiving the mission reward: 35000 proficiency points]

"Great!"

Liu Mengyuan cheered.

In one cycle, the career-related proficiency points exceeded 11!
One step closer to becoming a strong woman in business!
"Then, what kind of talent scrolls should I buy for my employees..."

There is no doubt that the reason why Taoyuan Township achieved its current success in the last cycle was because the three sets of employee talent scrolls purchased by Liu Mengyuan played a role.

Xia Shangyu's [Discovery of Singularity] enabled the company to successfully acquire Xiaohutuxian Company.

Li Hongmei's [Network Topologist] makes it easier for the company to recruit talented players for matching projects when expanding.

Chu Xiong's [Mutated Hacker] is even more amazing. It seems that he has directly mutated Melissa into developing anti-hacking technology.

Which employees should be transformed in this cycle?

Liu Mengyuan was happily rubbing his hands in anticipation,

suddenly!

The system pops up a prompt:

[Since your proficiency from your career is less than 50% this cycle, the system mall has adjusted the items for you. The following are exclusive items for the Succubus skill tree.]

Then, Liu Mengyuan's eyes flashed, and suddenly a wide variety of products appeared on the mall interface.

As soon as Liu Mengyuan saw these products for the first time, her face turned red to her ears:
Whips, candles, masks, blindfolds, garters...

What a mess this is!

Liu Mengyuan was about to exit the mall, but found that the exit button was gone!
system hint:

[As a reward for career proficiency points less than 50%, you must select one item from the above products before the countdown ends. If you are unable to select, the system will randomly select an item for you at the end of the countdown.]

Liu Mengyuan was shocked: "System, you call this a reward?!"

There are only 30 seconds left in the countdown.

There is no way. If the system gives it randomly, who knows what strange things will appear randomly. It is more reliable to choose it yourself.

Liu Mengyuan chose and chose, and finally chose a pair of suspenders that looked more normal.

At the moment she paid the proficiency points, a flash of white light appeared in the void in front of her, and the stockings were in her palm.

The system displays equipment information:
【Little Devil Suspenders】

[Type: System Skill Tree Exclusive Product]

[This equipment is passively activated and has been bound to the host's soul, so it cannot be discarded]

[Effect Description: When engaging in any form of combat with an opponent, the opponent's ammunition firing rate is doubled.]

"..."

Liu Mengyuan held his forehead helplessly.

What the hell is doubling the ammunition firing capacity?
She couldn't help but recall that this morning when she went to the dessert shop to buy breakfast, the clerk was probably an intern, so when making the puff cake, she didn't count at all and directly added double the cream. In the end, the puff cake that Liu Mengyuan bought was completely filled with cream, and the cream overflowed everywhere, looking terrible.

Liu Mengyuan couldn't help but cover his face.

Don't do this kind of scene...

Rather!

She suddenly felt that for some reason, Lu Yu looked even more handsome than usual, and she couldn't take her eyes off him.

Oh, the damn attraction!
Going home tonight, I guess something is going to happen again...
