#248 - Periodic settlement, Super Time and Space Moe Girl released (2 in 1 order required)
In the promotional video for "Senran Kagura: Peach Meditation Spring for the Girls," the three female characters Yozakura, Shiki, and Minori appear in costumes with a strong Japanese ninja style.
Yozakura is dressed in a black, tight-fitting ninja suit that shows off her curvaceous figure, with a design that cleverly highlights her fullness.
Every time she leaps nimbly, the exaggerated swaying attracts the attention of the audience.
Shiki's outfit is fresh and lovely, her skirt fluttering in the dance, outlining a captivating elegance.
Compared to Yozakura's exaggeration, Shiki's size is just right, making her overall image more endearing.
Minori's uniform clings to her figure, revealing her fragrant shoulders.
Puyo~ Puyo~ Puyo~
The simps exclaimed, "Damn, that katana is so white, oh no, those clouds are so big."
......
With the release of works by foreign exhibitors such as "Samurai Shodown V Special," "Azure Reflections," and "Senran Kagura," the public opinion within the exhibition began to reverse.
Many players withdrew from the Honkai Impact 3rd booth and lined up in front of the foreign game booths, with each booth surrounded by crowds of people, packed like sardines.
The tone of many media outlets also reversed:
"International Game Appreciation: Foreign Games' Technical Trends are Far Ahead"
"Foreign Merchants' Lineup is Full of New Products, Honkai Impact 3rd's Championship Competitiveness is Challenged"
"Decisive Battle for the Tianzun Cup, Can Honkai Impact 3rd Successfully Defend the Honor of Domestic Games?"
Many people in the live broadcast room sighed:
"Even if the exhibitors are second- or third-tier old companies, they still have decades of foundation after all. The game's plot, gameplay, and system do have advantages. Domestic manufacturers need to work hard to learn."
"Indeed, if we look at our domestic market, Honkai Impact 3rd is okay, but if we put it on a global and multi-platform perspective, it's not necessarily the case."
"Foreign manufacturers have put a lot of pressure on Honkai Impact 3rd and domestic game manufacturers."
"The above can also be understood. After all, Honkai Impact 3rd is mainly a mobile platform game, and many of the exhibitors are console and PC platform games. It can only be said that there is a long way to go."
"Damn it, many Japanese manufacturers don't play fair, coming to the novice village to bully newbies!"
"Although I can recognize the objective gap, I am still unwilling! I really hope that a domestic game can teach these manufacturers a lesson!"
......
Faced with the aggressive approach of foreign manufacturers, a cloud of gloom was cast over the Honkai Impact 3rd booth.
In the morning, everyone was excitedly receiving the crowds of players, happily thinking that winning this year's championship should be stable.
But now, watching the crowd quickly withdraw from the booth, many employees are filled with worry.
Producer Tianwu also frowned, his expression astonished and clouded.
The booths of other domestic exhibitors were not doing much better.
Many of them were originally just there to support Honkai Impact 3rd, but now that this single seedling is struggling to survive, they are also suffering losses and feeling disgraced.
On the podium, Jiang Qingfeng's face was also livid.
For this year's Tianzun Cup, he had no idea from the channels he controlled that foreign manufacturers would be so fierce.
Because when foreign manufacturers applied, they also said with a smile that they were mainly here to show their support, but they didn't expect to launch such a fierce sneak attack on the Chinese game industry!
Heh, the Japanese and Koreans really don't play fair!
Jiang Qingfeng's fist clenched and then slightly loosened.
Even if the other party played a trick, he, as the organizer, couldn't say much.
After all, in the game industry, being weak is the original sin!
Players won't talk to you about feelings, nor will they be infinitely tolerant of you because of other aspects.
Making fun things is the key, and players will vote with their wallets and feet.
Jiang Qingfeng sighed to the sky.
Is there really no one who can turn the tables?
The first day of the Tianzun Cup ended with a dramatic counterattack from foreign manufacturers.
......
December 15th, 10 AM.
The installation package for "Chrono Moe" was secretly released on the Peach Garden Township booth and the official website of the Tianzun Cup.
At the same time as the game was released, a system light screen popped up in front of Lu Yu:
[This round of the cycle is about to be settled, the current Leisure Points are 22358 points, converting...]
[2235800 yuan has been credited to the personal account.]
[The next settlement cycle is: 120 days later]
[Additional Task: Before the end of the cycle, release the fifth game produced by Peach Garden Township Company. This game needs to use the latest AR or VR technology, and the theme is not limited.]
[Task Reward 1: Random Surprise Lottery]
[Task Reward 2: The system unlocks the Leisure Point technology tree, and the host can pay Leisure Points to improve various system capabilities]
Thanks to Lu Yu's various ways of increasing the company's benefits, this round of point income has reached a new high.
When this round of the cycle was halfway through, Lu Yu had only accumulated more than 7,000 points,
Moreover, he was stabbed in the back in various ways in game platforms and live broadcasts and other businesses,
However, various welfare activities such as going out for tourism and petting cats forcibly brought Lu Yu's point income back.
[Congratulations on completing the additional cycle task: releasing the fourth game, rewarding a random surprise effect lottery]
A lottery turntable appeared on the system light screen, spinning wildly and bursting out with orange light!
[Wealth Beckoning Lv3] In the next 120 days, the conversion ratio of Leisure Points will be increased to 1:150.
Damn?!
Lu Yu was directly shocked after seeing it.
In other words, in the next four months, 1 point can be exchanged for 150 yuan?
Wouldn't this be a great opportunity to fleece the system!
[Congratulations on completing the fortuitous task of this round of the cycle, causing an employee of the company to continuously combo 10 times in a round of cycle, the task reward has been issued.]
[Task Reward: "Colorful Grand Ceremony" becomes a permanent effect, the host can obtain Leisure Points from the users of Peach Garden Township, the current rebate ratio is 0.05%.]
[Congratulations, the Leisure Points accumulated by the host have reached the standard, a new "Amazing Task" has been unlocked]
Huh?
Amazing task? Sounds more fierce than the fortuitous task.
Lu Yu clicked to take a look:
[Amazing Task 1: The More the Merrier]
[Task Requirements: In the new round of the settlement cycle, the host needs to earn points from no less than 300 Peach Garden Township employees, each employee must earn at least 100 points]
[Task Success Reward: 30000 Leisure Points]
[Task Failure Penalty: Deduct 30000 points from the host]
[This task has been automatically accepted and cannot be abandoned]
Lu Yu was stunned when he saw it.
Good fellow, the system really won't let him earn points with peace of mind, and started to put pressure on him with tasks!
All along, Lu Yu has been determined to control the company's personnel size,
Because, according to the system's diminishing marginal effect rule, the more work-related experiences, the less point income, and the more work-related fatigue, the more points are deducted.
Therefore, expanding the size of the personnel is basically a negative income.
However, this system task actually requires him to expand to 300 people, and then earn points from these 300 people.
Although the task reward is very generous, according to the buff he got from the lottery turntable just now, the task reward in the next round of the cycle can be exchanged for 4.5 million soft sister coins, and if you add the point standard line required by the task itself, you can get more than 9 million from the system for free.
But!
The operational difficulty of this task is undoubtedly like walking a tightrope.
The general environment of this world is already highly competitive, so the more people you recruit, the harder it is to manage. Once the task fails, not only will you not get a penny, but you will also have to deduct 30,000 points, which is to deduct 4.5 million from the bank card.
In this case, not only will all the previous cycles be in vain, but even Lu Yu calculates that he will owe the system more than 1 million!
If according to Lu Yu's strategy of seeking stability, he would not rashly accept this task,
But the painful thing is that the task is automatically accepted and cannot be canceled.
Lu Yu was silent for a while, and smiled relievedly.
Never mind, I'll go all out, since it's here, let's settle down, wealth and honor are sought in danger!
......
After that, Lu Yu checked the account information of the bank card with his mobile phone. Now, the personal account balance is 3.2 million,
And half a year ago, he was still a poor student with only more than 300 yuan in his card.
After working hard for more than half a year, he got more than 3 million from the system for free,
......and a game company with a monthly revenue of 200 million.
So, Lu Yu actually has nothing to be dissatisfied with.
Now, he basically leads all the company members into a Buddhist health-preserving state.
Many activities related to food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating, drinking, and playing can be enjoyed and consumed in the name of the company's team building.
As a result, Lu Yu himself has no place to spend money.
The next goal is to buy a better house in Jianghai City. Some high-end large flats or even Tomson Riviera are not a daydream.
Or change to a better car?
Before that, after the Tianzun Cup is over, I should take the time to go home again. My parents have been reluctant to spend money for most of their lives, and many things in the house need to be replaced.
And......
He looked at Liu Mengyuan beside him.
Since they have confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, he has to take her to see his parents, right?
Lu Yu showed an aunt-like smile on his face, and Liu Mengyuan subconsciously shivered.
"Huh? What's wrong."
"Nothing."
......
Although she felt that Lu Yu was strange, Liu Mengyuan didn't care, because the system settlement light screen also popped up in front of her:
[6033 Proficiency Points were obtained in this round of the cycle]
[Among them, 2012 Proficiency Points are related to career development]
[Congratulations to the host for completing the fortuitous task of this round of the cycle, causing an employee in the company to awaken the talent skill tree and obtain a self-selected talent treasure chest.]
Her eyes suddenly lit up with stars,
Yay!
Self-selected talent!
Sounds very powerful.
[The system is detecting the host's system usage records, and it has been detected that the host's talent tree is the "Spoiled Wife" talent tree, and the corresponding talent treasure chest has been generated. Please select your favorite talent.]
Huh?
Liu Mengyuan instantly became alert, so the options for your self-selection have to be determined according to the talent tree?
She tremblingly clicked on the self-selected treasure chest with her small hand, and her eyes went dark.
The newest novel is first published at Six Nine Book Bar!
The treasure chest is a three-choice option, as follows:
[Talent 1: Rebirth from Fire]
[Description: After an encounter battle, the combat object has a 50% probability of instantly completing weapon recharge again (this effect can be triggered up to 10 times within the same day)]
[Talent 2: Epic Battle]
[Description: Each time an encounter battle occurs, the combat object's combat time can be extended, and the extension time ranges from 30 minutes to 300 minutes (depending on the mood of the combat object)]
[Talent 3: Rain After a Long Drought]
[Description: The host is more likely to trigger her own tidal storm at the most intense moment of the battle.
The probability of triggering ranges from 50% to 100% (up to 18 tidal storms can be triggered per day, but please use with caution to avoid fainting)]
"......" Liu Mengyuan fell into silence.
No, system, I want to become a strong woman in the business world, don't you have any serious talents?
Seemingly aware of Liu Mengyuan's question, the system gave an answer:
[This system has generated the talent that best suits the host's needs by detecting the host's behavior after loading the system]
[Among them, the system refers to the following partial records]
[August 18, the host secretly peeked at the doujinshi in the room]
[August 19, the host imagined scenes in the bathroom that were not suitable for others to know]
[August 21, the host secretly peeked at the doujinshi in the room]
[August 22, the host imagined scenes in the kitchen while stewing turtle that were not suitable for others to know......]
"Okay, okay, stop!"
Liu Mengyuan blushed and planned to stop the system's public execution.
But, she suddenly found out! This treasure chest can just be placed in the system space like this and doesn't need to be selected.
Then I simply won't choose anything!
Liu Mengyuan felt happy in her heart, thinking that she had found a loophole in the system.
She simply ignored the treasure chest and continued to click on the subsequent system light screen.
The system didn't seem to warn her about her loophole-finding behavior and continued to make settlement broadcasts:
[Congratulations, the Proficiency Points earned by the host in this round of the cycle have reached the standard, the system starts the big turntable lottery]
"Oh oh oh, great, I still have a chance to turn over!"
Liu Mengyuan rubbed her small hands expectantly.
The system's big turntable spun wildly, and finally the pointer stopped at the first prize position, bursting out with orange light!
Yay!
Liu Mengyuan cheered happily.
This time, I'm afraid I can get something good that will directly take her to the pinnacle of life?
[Congratulations! The host has won the first prize with a probability of 0.8%, rewarding a "Grand Slam" effect once.]
[Grand Slam Effect Description: When the host holds a self-selected treasure chest, she will automatically receive all the rewards in the treasure chest!]
Liu Mengyuan instantly petrified on the spot!
Hey, wait a minute, you wait for me!
System, are you targeting me!?
Before she could express her protest, three rays of light poured out of the treasure chest and entered her body, and then the treasure chest completely disappeared.
"Hmm......"
Liu Mengyuan's delicate body suddenly staggered.
Oops, the whole person seems to have become a little strange.
Her beautiful legs bent into an inward eight shape, her small mouth exhaled wisps of hot air,
The look in her eyes towards Lu Yu beside her also became a little lustrous.
"Huh? What's wrong, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, it's nothing."
Liu Mengyuan drank several mouthfuls of water to calm her mood.
In reality, this system is called the 'Dream Fulfillment Insurance System.' What kind of wishes it can grant depends entirely on the host's usual behavior and obsessions.
Therefore, the current outcome is her own fault.
Damn it, did I go too far? I need to restrain myself in the future, and burn all those little picture books, leave not a single one!
The system continued to announce emotionlessly:
【Due to the host's excellent performance in the previous cycle, the Serendipity Task has been upgraded to a Surprise Task】
【Surprise Task One: Make Progress Every Day】
【Task Requirements: Within the new settlement cycle, the host needs to earn work-related proficiency points from no less than 300 employees of Peach Blossom Village, with each employee contributing at least 50 points】
【Task Success Reward: Energetic Girl】
【Reward Description: This buff lasts for 120 days. During this period, the host will only awaken skills related to career development, and confidence in career development will be enhanced.】
【Task Failure Penalty: Dark Succubus】
【Reward Description: This debuff lasts for 120 days. The host will only awaken skills related to combat, and the probability of conflict between the host and their partner when alone will greatly increase.】
【This task has been automatically accepted and cannot be abandoned】
“……”
Liu Mengyuan was dumbfounded.
What kind of surprise task is this? It's more like a horror task, and it's automatically accepted!?
Although the reward is quite tempting and perfectly aligns with her initial motivation for awakening the system,
the penalty is too terrifying!
She thought to herself,
Firstly, the 'Doting Wife Series' skill tree has already awakened many strange skills, involving various aspects such as equipment polishing and maintenance.
Secondly, in recent months, without realizing the serious consequences, she had been feeding Lu Yu turtle soup like crazy.
Never would she have thought that today's jackpot would make matters even worse!
In other words, now, she and Lu Yu are like a powder keg filled with high-explosive ammunition.
And the penalty for failing this task is equivalent to completely igniting the fuse of the powder keg!
She trembled, not daring to think about what would happen if the task failed.
Most likely, something would happen, something of great importance!
It would be fine if this girl brought it upon herself, but Lu Yu is innocent!
I wonder if this young man can withstand 120 days, wouldn't he just collapse after a series of fierce battles?
……
"President Liu, it seems that no players have noticed that our game has been released."
Xu Qin's voice interrupted Liu Mengyuan's thoughts.
Because it is a cross-platform game, 'Chrono Moe' offers PC, Android, and iOS downloads.
Currently, it has been almost half an hour since the release, but the number of downloads is still very low, and no media or players are stopping at the booth.
Liu Mengyuan was not surprised by this.
Originally, the public's attention was focused on the new works of foreign manufacturers, and the remaining attention was absorbed by Honkai Impact 3rd.
In addition, with the wave of controversy stirred up by Bei Bian Jian Feng, it's normal that no one noticed.
Xu Qin: "President Liu, should we promote it on the official Weibo and find some UP masters to try out the game?"
"No!"
Liu Mengyuan shook her head.
'Chrono Moe' has cost Peach Blossom Village a lot of research and development costs, so in order to successfully complete the task in this cycle, she must ensure that every aspect of the game's launch is foolproof!
"UP masters cannot accurately understand the wonderful design points of the game. Lu and I will personally do a live stream."
Then, she instructed Xu Qin to promote it in the most conspicuous position on the homepage of 'Peach Blossom Light Year'.
She and Lu Yu will use the names 'Little Roundy and Little Feather' to conduct a trial demonstration to all online players at the Peach Blossom Village booth!
Recently, she and Lu Yu have been live-streaming their own games at home when they have nothing to do, so they have accumulated 50,000 fans, which is just right for gathering initial popularity.
Lu Yu did not refuse Liu Mengyuan's live broadcast request.
Anyway, in his heart, with the added layers of anti-involution measures, this game is destined not to become a hit.
He thought to himself, the most important task next is to recruit 300 people, and then let them lie flat at all costs.
After all, the penalty for failing the task is too terrible, and I don't know how many years it will take to pay back the deducted money.
I'm going all out, I must complete the task!
Liu Mengyuan also thought to herself: Next, this lady will never let the task fail!
With their own thoughts, the two officially started the live stream of 'Chrono Moe'!
