Chapter 100: Lu Yu's Future Plans

Wang Xin was sent to the relevant department.

But……

「I have not received any orders or instigation from anyone; all these actions were initiated by myself. 」

「I have been at Grand for many years, almost co‑founding Grand with Chen Qiao, and I have deep feelings for Grand. 」

「I once swore in my heart that I would devote my life to Grand, doing everything I could to lead Grand toward a brighter future. 」

「But…… Lu Yu's appearance has left me full of disappointment toward Chen Qiao and Grand. 」

「Without a doubt, both 《Plants vs. Zombies》 and 《Legend》 have achieved tremendous success, especially the latter. 」

「But such a Grand is no longer the Grand I know. 」

「Chen Qiao has marginalized us, the employees who have always followed him! 」

「We don't even have the qualification to access the core. 」

「Chen Qiao, however, spoke nicely, saying he would give us more space to develop in the future. 」

「But whoever believes that is an idiot. 」

「I want to destroy the current Grand, so…… Chen Qiao will finally realize our importance! 」

This is Wang Xin's statement brought by the relevant department.

Although this statement has logical flaws, there is no problem with it emotionally.

Moreover, since Grand really has no evidence, …… this matter is completely unrelated to Mr. Qin!

This makes Lu Yu a bit uncomfortable,

If Mr. Qin is not removed, he will surely cause more trouble later.

The other side has connections, has funds, and has means.

This is the most troublesome enemy.

But……

Obviously, at this point Lu Yu can no longer do anything against Mr. Qin.

……

「Look, this is a game made by a seven‑year‑old. Look at you! What's your annual salary? How many years have you been in this industry? 」

「I don't even expect you to reach Lu Yu's level, but can you muster half of his ability? 」

「If this continues, our game company will go bankrupt. 」

「Ladies and gentlemen, the times are different now; the appearance of 《Legend》 will change the entire game industry's ecology. 」

「If we cannot produce good works by then, everyone…… will die, starve to death! 」

This is not the remark of any single person, but…… the words spoken by the leaders of all game companies across Huaxia at this time to their own employees.

Yes, 《Legend》 has now become the nation's top online game.

Now, whether in internet cafes, at home, or even at work, anyone playing games is almost certainly playing 《Legend》.

All game companies naturally studied 《Legend》 as soon as it appeared.

They drew many conclusions.

But in the end, what they have to say is only about Lu Yu himself.

Because they found that 《Legend》 contains too many new settings.

Then, whether from background music, to character design, to the visuals……

are things these game companies cannot accomplish.

So, they first sought to understand the designer of 《Legend》.

Lu Yu never thought about gaining fame; he even deliberately kept a low profile.

But you can't hide fire in paper; Lu Yu ultimately became famous.

At least now, any ambitious game company in the country knows Lu Yu and knows he is a seven‑year‑old genius child.

Of course, for now Lu Yu's fame is limited to the gaming world.

As for how the future will unfold…… it's hard to say.

……

「Xiao Yu, will you attend the event tomorrow? 」 In Lu Yu's office, Chen Qiao looked at Lu Yu with anticipation and said.

Tomorrow there will be a nationwide event.

The theme of this event is: Discussing the future direction of domestic games.

This event is large in scale, organized by the Game Alliance.

At that time, major game companies from across the country will participate.

Grand naturally received the invitation, and…… the Game Alliance even specifically named Lu Yu.

Moreover…… Chen Qiao has a friend in the Game Alliance who personally invited Chen Qiao to a meal, naturally to get Lu Yu to attend this event.

Here we must mention the Game Alliance.

It is a non‑official organization, but its influence is great; it is the sole game‑company organization in the country.

Therefore, even Chen Qiao did not refuse to participate in this event.

Of course…… whether Lu Yu participates or not, Chen Qiao cannot force him; he can only use the 'stone‑grinding' technique.

「Alright, Uncle Chen, I'll go attend, okay? 」 Lu Yu said helplessly.

Chen Qiao's face finally showed a smile, and his heart involuntarily let out a big sigh of relief.

「Right, Xiao Yu, I just had the finance department transfer five million to your mother's card—this is the first‑quarter dividend from 《Legend」. 」

「I've also prepared the dividends for your classmates. 」

「When the time comes, go check and collect it. 」

Now, if you encounter anything inconvenient in Mo Du, tell me promptly.

Actually, Legend has been on the market for less than a month, and the profit it can generate is still far from five million.

Most of this five million is Chen Qiao paying out of his own pocket to make up for Lu Yu.

Although Lu Yu already has a house and a car, … who knows if Lu Yu will have other expenses?

Although Lu Yu is only a seven-year-old child, Chen Qiao no longer treats him as a child.

"Thank you, Uncle Chen." Lu Yu lightly nods at Chen Qiao, not refusing.

Five million is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for people of this era.

But… the benefits that Legend can bring are immeasurable.

Now, Grand is only taking the fee for one advertisement, not just this amount.

Lu Yu can naturally accept it.

Lu Yu and Chen Qiao exchanged a few more words, then Chen Qiao left.

The office became quiet again.

Lu Yu fell into contemplation.

Tomorrow, Mr. Qin will also participate in that event.

By then, Lu Yu can actually meet Mr. Qin face to face.

Of course, what will happen is not something Lu Yu can decide.

This… actually is irrelevant to Lu Yu.

The question Lu Yu is currently pondering is: what should he do next?

Legend's success, without doubt, will bring continuous benefits to Grand and Lu Yu.

Lu Yu's first-step plan can also be considered successful.

At least from now on, he no longer needs to be troubled by money.

So… should we start developing the third game?

Legend's power has only just erupted now, and it will last a long time, so developing a new game now seems unnecessary.

If we don't make games, what should we do next?

Right!

Suddenly, Lu Yu's eyes lit up.

He happened to see the diary; it's now May, and the National College Entrance Examination is already near.

Although Lu Yu is nominally enrolled at Mo Du University of Electronic Science and Technology, he is actually not yet a college student.

This is also Lu Yu's intention.

He wants to take the National College Entrance Examination!

This is actually worth doing.

After the National College Entrance Examination ends, Legend's popularity should also stabilize, and then naturally we can go on to make other games.
