Honkai Impact 3rd: Join Anti-Entropy at the start and dominate the entertainment industry.

The system responded quickly.

"If I commission a song and the money suddenly disappears from my account, will people notice? And then the FBI will come knocking on my door?"

Bai Qianqu shivered!

[Host, you're worrying unnecessarily. The money deducted by the system comes through legitimate channels. I suggest you stop this pointless thinking and focus your energy on creating art.]

After being reprimanded by the system, Bai Qianqu rolled her eyes and stopped thinking about all that nonsense.

Back in my seat in the composition department, I hadn't even settled in when I received a text message. I picked up my phone and saw it was a transfer notification.

The two million from Anti-Entropy were sent over so quickly; it seems they were afraid Bai Qianqu would back out, so they went through the expedited process.

In that instant, Bai Qianqu left all her worries behind, feeling her back pain subside, her legs stop aching, her breath catch in her throat, and she felt refreshed!

He's a rich man now!

What a load of crap! Quitting—of course, is out of the question.

Bai Qianqu wants to release more songs through the Anti-Entropy platform, so she can't leave so easily.

Seeing Bai Qianqu's beaming expression, Li Yang couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"Old Bai, what kind of epileptic seizure are you having?"

Bai Qianqu then came to her senses, coughed, and tidied her hair.

"Nothing, just a melody came to mind."

"Melody? What melody?" Li Yang asked blankly.

"I've made money! I've made money! I don't even know how to spend it!"

Li Yang: ? ? ?

What's that melody? It's so strange!

Uh, wait, it seems a little intoxicating?

When it was time to leave work, Bai Qianqu happily clocked out on time.

After getting off work, Bai Qianqu didn't go home. Instead, she found a small restaurant and planned to treat herself to a meal.

After all, he is now a millionaire. Although he is not considered rich in Changkong City where land is extremely valuable, he at least has the capital to live comfortably across the country!

Of course, this is all on the premise that we don't get married or buy a house!

However, this was no problem for Bai Qianqu, who was a lazy bum and wouldn't consider anything beyond his capabilities.

After having a meal, Mei Mei wiped her mouth and returned to her rented room. Without saying a word, she paid the rent she owed and sent the money she owed Bronya. Bai Qianqu lay in bed happily after all this last night.

It has been three days since he transmigrated. Three days ago, he was a penniless young man, but now he has two million.

This person is strange. When he has no money, he thinks: "When I have money, I'll just give up and lie down."

But when you've earned enough money, you don't want to rest on your laurels anymore; you want to earn even more!

Bai Qianqu was in this situation. He opened the system and immediately commissioned a song called "The Fleeting Years" without even blinking!

[Ding! Congratulations on your purchase of a 50 RMB customized copy of "Fleet of Time"! Thank you for your patronage!]

Bai Qianqu's lips twitched. Customizing a song had actually cost her a quarter of her total assets!

He quickly recalled the song in his mind, then breathed a sigh of relief.

It is indeed Faye Wong's version. Classic songs like this have many cover versions, and it cannot be denied that some cover versions are indeed good, and some can even surpass the original.

However, some original versions of songs can never be replaced, and "The Fleeting Years" is a good example.

After hearing Tianming's custom requirements during the day, Bai Qianqu had many choices, but after repeated consideration, he finally decided on "The Fleeting Years".

What other song could better capture a youthful love story that transcends time?

This song was released in 2014 and won the Best Movie Song and Top Ten Golden Songs awards at the Music Billboard Awards in 2015.

Interestingly, this song's fate was similar to that of "The Wind Rises." After the release of its title track's music video, it quickly surpassed 100 million views within 3 hours, and then continued to surge at a rate of 50 views per hour, exceeding 200 million views in 5 hours and 400 million in 9 hours. The following day, the views continued their rapid growth, surpassing 600 million views in 21 hours, setting new records for the fastest time to reach 200 million, 400 million, and 600 million views. Ultimately, it reached 627 million views in 24 hours.

Even "The Ordinary Road" pales in comparison.

Of course, Bai Qianqu was unaware of all this; he simply felt that the song was very fitting for the movie "Destiny".

After the song was customized, Bai Qianqu quickly wrote the lyrics and music. Looking at the song in her hand, Bai Qianqu showed a gratified smile.

If I can land a custom order, I can get a million-dollar commission! That would be amazing!

After finishing all this, Bai Qianqu turned on her computer and found a game platform called "Steamworld". It is said that this platform is the most famous game platform in the world and has the largest number of players in the world.

Of course, Bai Qianqu didn't want to play games, but rather wanted to see what games were popular in this world. The saying "know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated" applies here.

The number one game on the charts is a parkour game called "Houmu Escape," which plays the same way as the original "Temple Run," except the main characters are various kinds of Houmu.

Chapter 17 Go! Angry Birds!

Bai Qianqu looked down and saw that the second-ranked game was called "Houmu Run," and the third-ranked game was called "Houmu Match."

Almost all the top-ranked games have the word "Houmu" added to their names, and all of these games are published by Anti-Entropy.

Bai Qianqu was completely speechless this time. It turned out that Anti-Entropy had been using the Houmu IP to make games all the time!

I don't know what's so interesting about this yellow rabbit; it's so childish! The person who made these games must be a childish person too!

At that moment, Bronya suddenly sneezed. She looked up suspiciously, but seeing nothing amiss, she hugged her Houmu plushie tightly and continued playing "Houmu Escape," muttering, "The Houmu games I've been making lately are getting so little attention."

After looking at the game rankings, Bai Qianqu gained a basic understanding of the game situation in this world. In short, it was still like the original world more than ten years ago. Forget about AAA games, most people were still playing side-scrolling games.

However, it's good that the Angry Birds game in Bai Qianqu's hand is just right as her first game. It won't stand out too much, and its quality is excellent compared to other side-scrolling games.

After browsing the game platform again, Bai Qianqu's eyes lit up.

He discovered that the gaming platform seemed to support individual game uploads and also provided free software for creating games. Bai Qianqu took a look and found that the software was very easy to use. With the game code and game materials he had, he could easily create a simplified version of Angry Birds!

Excited, Bai Qianqu immediately set to work, registering a creator account and embarking on a period of arduous coding.

Soon, a small game of only 100MB was born in Bai Qianqu's hands!

Bai Qianqu wiped away non-existent sweat from her forehead, then touched her hair and, finding it hadn't thinned, breathed a sigh of relief.

"I should leave this to the professionals in the future. I can't joke around with my own hair," Bai Qianqu muttered to herself, still shaken.

Although he was just copying the code, it was still quite tiring, not to mention importing models and such. Fortunately, the technology in this world is very advanced, and the game-making software is also very intelligent, reducing a lot of tedious operations.

After finishing it, Bai Qianqu ran it herself to test it out. Although it was a bit rudimentary, it had all the necessary core elements and overall there were no major problems.

He fixed a few minor bugs, and the game was finally complete.

The game is now complete, and the next step is to upload it. The system prompts you to name the game and write a short description.

Bai Qianqu thought for a moment and decided to name the game "Angry Birds" (beta version). As for the description...

Bai Qianqu typed away for a while, and then these lines of text appeared on the computer screen:

The wicked pigs stole the little bird's eggs, and the little bird is furious to get her chicks back! Use your own body as a weapon, like a cannonball, to attack their fortress!

The introduction was simple and unadorned, just like countless other new games. However, on the tag interface, Bai Qianqu had selected a series of tags such as [Strategy], [Difficult], [Puzzle], and [Brainpower].

It's obvious at a glance that this is a very challenging game.

There's also an author's note, where the words are even more arrogant.

"Can you shoot birds?"

Everything was fine this time, and Bai Qianqu uploaded the game directly for review, which was expected to be completed within three days.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Qianqu copied some of the Angry Birds games to a USB drive for backup. After doing all that, he happily drifted off to sleep.

However, at this moment, a magnificent manor quietly sits on a small hill next to Changkong City under the cover of night. This is the residence of the wealthy.

The manor's overall structure is built with golden bricks, making it look like a luxurious palace made of gold from a distance, giving it a strong visual impact.

Many people couldn't help but look at the manor with admiration and envy when they passed by.

For no other reason than that this is the residence of the famous composer, Eden, an S-class composer.

The owner of this manor, named Golden Courtyard, is a god-like figure in the art world.

In this world that reveres art, Eden is considered a god in people's minds!

However, Eden does not live here alone. Some people she approves of will receive her invitation to stay. Of course, these people are not necessarily celebrities. They may be a student, a chef, or even a singer.

Eden doesn't care about other people's identities; as long as you're chosen by her, no matter who you are, you can receive an invitation.

At this moment, a pink figure appeared at the entrance of the Golden Courtyard. She had long, slightly wavy pink hair, neat bangs, and a ponytail tied behind her head. In addition to her beautiful appearance, she also had a pair of elf ears.

The girl hummed a little tune and walked in, using her facial recognition to open the door as if she knew the way.

In the manor's hall, a tall, beautiful, and intellectual woman with long, wine-red hair sat languidly at the piano. She held a half-finished glass of red wine in one hand, while her other hand flew across the keys, and a light melody flowed freely through the hall.

If someone knowledgeable were present, they would be astonished, because this piano piece is one that requires a very high hand speed. Many people can't play it with both hands, but this woman played it with only one hand, and played it perfectly!

As the last note faded, applause erupted at the entrance of the hall.

"Eden, your piano playing is getting better and better! No wonder you're an S-class pianist!"

The woman smiled slightly, downed the red wine in her hand in one gulp, and a blush appeared on her fair cheeks, which further accentuated her elegance and beauty.

That's right, this woman is Eden, the S-class composer that people talk about as a god!

Eden put down his wine glass, walked slowly to the door, and said with a smile, "Ellie, where have you been playing again? It's so late."

The beautiful pink-haired girl said in a coquettish tone, "Having dinner with the pretty girls at the company and then going to karaoke... has my Eden been waiting for me all this time? I'm so touched, come here for a hug!"

Without saying a word, Ellie hugged Eden, and the two pressed close together intimately.

Eden sighed, "Don't always stay out so late. Qianjie hasn't seen you for dinner for several days and threw a tantrum."

"Oh, it's okay! I'll talk to Qianjie about it next time, it's fine!" With that, Ai Li plopped down on the sofa. "Playing with beautiful girls makes me happy!"

Eden couldn't help but sigh. Ellie was good in every way, except that she couldn't move when she saw a beautiful girl and had to flirt with her. With this willful personality, it was no wonder that she was called Paradise.

"Fine, whatever makes you happy." Eden had no other choice.

Chapter 18 The Old Man

Ellie's little mouth couldn't stay silent, and she continued to ask, "Eden, are you ready for your new song next month?"

Eden nodded: "If it weren't for helping a singer with good potential to reach A-level, I wouldn't have wanted to get involved. The song is fine, I can just take one from the library. Although it's not top-tier, it should be enough to climb the pop music charts."

"It should be number one, right?" Ellie chuckled. "With the great artist Eden involved, taking number one on the new song chart is a sure thing, isn't it?"
