Offside game

Ji Rong rarely acts like a typical rich heiress and gets along well with everyone. Often, if it weren't for her car and the luxurious items she wears, people would almost forget she comes from the Ji family, a prominent family in Beijing. However, she's usually low-key and doesn't readily talk about her family. Her joking remark today suggests she's quite surprised by Su Yi's wealth.

Although Ji Feng had only vaguely mentioned Ji Rong's family background without going into detail, Su Yi, who owned the Kesai, was quite aware of some of the information. The Ji family's rise in Beijing was a phenomenon of the last twenty years, stemming from the brilliant business acumen of Ji Rong's father, Ji Bonian, chairman of the Tianyi Group. He started in real estate, and his businesses now encompass real estate, hotels, shopping malls, and foreign trade. Currently, his Tianyi Group's assets are nearly 300 billion yuan, and the related assets controlled by the company reach a scale of 500 billion yuan. Ji Bonian controls 56% of the shares in Tianyi Group, with approximately 40% under his own name, 11% under his wife Zhang Xiuning's name, and even Ji Rong, who is still a student, owns 5% of the shares in Tianyi Group. Therefore, Ji Rong's current net worth is already approximately 15 billion yuan, making her a multi-millionaire. However, these shares are only registered under her name; control remains with her father, and she has no way of using these funds.

After dinner, the group returned to Mengyuan Apartment in Su Yi's car. Ji Yanran wanted to leave her luggage at Ji Rong's place. Su Yi and Ji Feng naturally became the porters. This was also Su Yi's first time visiting Ji Rong's room. In terms of decorating style, Ji Rong's room was more feminine, with a girl's boudoir feel. After they sat down in the living room, Ji Rong pulled Ji Yanran to show her around the other rooms. The two chattered away, discussing the interior design. Su Yi realized for the first time that women's topics could be incredibly detailed; even the placement of the bathroom mirror and towel rack took them a long time to discuss.

After a while, Ji Rong pulled Ji Yanran out and told them to sit down while they went downstairs to buy some daily necessities for Ji Yanran. Sitting there listening to the girls' trivial chatter was really too boring, and Ji Feng probably felt the same way. When Su Yi said there was nothing else to do and they needed to leave to do something else, he immediately chimed in. Realizing that the two of them really had nothing else to do, Ji Rong and the others mercifully let them go.

Just as they stepped out the door, Ji Feng turned around and quietly said to Su Yi, "Master, you've driven that Land Rover before... Actually, I'm still not used to driving a Benz."

Su Yi naturally understood what he meant, and handed him the keys speechlessly, but also said something that shocked Ji Feng: "Driving is fine, but you're not allowed to bring girls into my car and mess around with them."

"Master, um, so you're this wicked too..." Ji Feng was quite taken aback. He handed the Benz keys to Su Yi and said, "The car is parked downstairs. I'm going to the club now." After saying that, he hurriedly ran away.

Su Yi stood there, muttering to himself, "Am I evil? Sigh..."

"You're still here? That's great! There's something I forgot to tell you." Ji Rong and Ji Yanran came out of the door and saw Su Yi standing there. They said happily, "Xiao Feng has always praised your cooking skills to us. Today, since Sister Yanran is coming to Yanjing, Su Yi should cook a welcome dinner for the beautiful lady."

"Well, didn't we already have a welcome dinner at noon?" Su Yi asked, puzzled.

Ji Rong gave a charming smile, but Su Yi felt that the smile seemed a little... cunning: "Oh dear, you're not being sincere at all. It's the kind of food you make yourself that's truly touching."

"Forget it, Rongrong, don't force him. The richest man is so busy, how could he have time to cook a meal for us ordinary citizens?" Ji Yanran's expression was full of resentment, but the emphasis she placed on the words "richest man" made Su Yi feel a sense of unease. Women are indeed petty; he was blaming himself for keeping this from her. At this moment, Ji Rong's face also showed the smug look of someone who had stirred up trouble.

Seeing this, Su Yi could no longer refuse and quickly nodded in agreement: "It's an honor to cook for these beautiful ladies..."

The two women thanked them with feigned modesty. As the elevator doors closed, the two girls simultaneously broke into triumphant smiles and high-fived each other—"Yay..."

Su Yi returned to his room and suddenly remembered that the two women seemed to have changed their clothes again. Women...

After completing the development of the game "Evolution," Su Yi had already begun creating a new online game based on another game—"Mechanical Civilization." He planned to name this online game "Mechanical."

The selling point of *Mechanical Online* lies in the exchange or trading of mechanical parts between players. Based on the mechanical component system of *Mechanical Civilization*, it boasts detailed content and a solid player base. This game can also attract players who enjoy mechanical games, complementing *Evolution*.

Now, DreamGames has grown to a considerable size. After acquiring the game division of Vivendi Global Group and the French company Yubi Software, DreamGames possesses extremely strong game development capabilities. Therefore, "Mechanical" should be the last game Su Yi develops himself. Subsequent game development will be entirely handled by DreamGames' various game studios. With the support of the Pangu Engine and various other technologies, these studios are expected to produce many excellent games in the future.

Blizzard Entertainment had been secretly working on a project for some time: an online game based on the Warcraft series. After Blizzard was acquired by DreamWorks, the basic framework of this game was complete, and production was about to begin. With the Pangu Engine from its parent company, Blizzard is now even more confident in this online game. They believe that with the support of Lechang Networks' mature online game operation experience and powerful server system, this game will become a global phenomenon.

Fantasy Games also attached great importance to this online game. After all, in Western countries like Europe and America, games with a D&D framework still have a strong appeal to players. Therefore, they specifically invested additional funds in this game project, allowing the entire game development team to devote themselves to it with even greater enthusiasm. According to the established plan, in order to create a high-quality product, the entire game's development cycle was approximately 14 months, and it was expected to be completed and launched before Christmas 03.

Because it continues the setting and history of the entire Warcraft series, the game's name is tentatively set as World of Warcraft.
