Chapter 186: Reactions from All Sides and Lu Yu's Preparations

Debu glanced lightly at everyone in the office, coughed once, drawing everyone's attention, then slowly said: "Everyone, you should all know that this matter was decided by that person."

"Since that person has already spoken, what are we still discussing here?"

"All we need to do is fully satisfy that person's demands; as for any consequences..."

"Do you think it's worse if something even slightly exceeds that person's expectations, or are the current consequences severe?"

As Debu's voice faded, the office fell silent again.

No one dared to make a sound; even if they harbored great dissatisfaction, they could only swallow it.

Seeing this, Debu couldn't help but show a hint of mockery on his face.

He knew it would turn out like this!

As long as that behind-the-scenes person is brought up, no matter how unreasonable the behavior, it will be tolerated!

After pondering for a moment, Debu continued: "Regarding the consequences arising from the current situation, you all need not worry."

"After the competition ends, that person will naturally give us an explanation."

"This is natural; how could we not trust that person?" Debu's voice had just fallen when several people spoke up in agreement.

By this point, everyone's faces no longer showed anger; their eyes were filled with smiles.

Yes, what's happening online now greatly affects the impression of the game alliance, but... what does it matter?

Dan Ding's influence is just that great!

……

Another two days passed, and online comments have quieted down considerably.

After all, this matter actually has little to do with netizens' lives.

To be honest, who wins this competition's championship has little relevance to them.

For players, as long as there are sufficiently excellent games, isn't that enough?

They don't even need to know the game's developers or the company.

So, by now, the entire internet has quieted down.

On the contrary, many players have focused their attention on continually updated games.

It must be said, the contestants who made it into the International Game Maker Competition indeed each have their own abilities.

Newly appearing games are of ever-increasing quality.

Players therefore devote more thought to the games.

At this point, someone somehow started a topic, and then the whole populace began discussing it again.

"Why hasn't Lu Yu released his first game yet?"

"Could it be that Lu Yu still hasn't finished making his first game?"

"Exactly, by now more than fifty games have appeared in the third round of the competition!"

People began to notice Lu Yu.

By now, under these circumstances, everyone has subtly come to a shared understanding.

The Game Alliance does not prevent participants from releasing games early, even if the Alliance has issued no announcement.

In such a situation, releasing a new game a day earlier can draw netizens' attention a day earlier, which greatly affects the final outcome!

Therefore, the reason Lu Yu has not yet released his first game can only be...

"No way? Has Lu Yu run out of talent? Can he no longer produce a third game?"

"Actually, if you think about it seriously, it's not impossible. Everyone knows Lu Yu joined this competition temporarily, without much prior preparation."

"So, for Lu Yu to have produced those two games in the first two rounds is already quite good."

"No matter what, Lu Yu still has talent. He might lose, probably because... he lacks sufficient accumulation, eh."

"Believe in Lu Yu; in the days to come, he will surely bring us more and more enjoyable games."

Some netizens are still tolerant enough toward Lu Yu, expressing their expectations for his future and affirming his talent.

But even so, they don't think Lu Yu can produce a sufficiently convincing work in the third round, possibly... not even a single work.

Just as they analyzed, asking Lu Yu to continuously produce three excellent games is indeed somewhat asking too much.

And another portion of netizens...

"If you lack ability, you lack ability; why bother with so many excuses?"

"If Lu Yu truly had enough talent, wouldn't it be simple for him to want to put out a game now?"

"We don't even demand that Lu Yu's third game be particularly good; we just want him to release a third game."

"If he can't even do something this simple, what's there to say about talent?"

No matter the time, there are always some people in this world who exist just to "black" (i. e., to hate/criticize).

They never analyze the big picture, never care about others' feelings, as if they can be happy only when others are doing poorly.

But they actually don't realize that even if Lu Yu fails now, he is still far more successful than they are.

Even if Lu Yu truly cannot produce a third game, he indeed won the championship in the first two rounds!

How many people could actually achieve such a thing?

……

At this moment, inside Grand.

Lu Yu turned off the computer and looked toward Chen Qiao.

Chen Qiao actually had a lot to say; he wanted Lu Yu not to mind, and also wanted to ask whether Lu Yu was not going to release games early...

But in the end, Chen Qiao still chose silence.

Because... Lu Yu fundamentally doesn't need his concern, nor does he need him to make decisions.

"Let's go, Uncle Chen; let's check the progress of *Supreme Racing Car*." Lu Yu said with a smile to Chen Qiao.

Chen Qiao nodded lightly.

Then, the older and the younger came to the Technical Department.

After a week of effort, the Supreme Racing Car has been completed, and now it has reached the acceptance stage.

The next steps are simple—just play games, then play games again.

Three hours later, Lu Yu put down the mouse, stood up, lightly nodded at Wang Meng, and said, "The completion degree of the Supreme Racing Car is very high; there is nothing left to modify."

"So from now on, you will have to work even harder."

Wang Meng actually broke into a wry smile and said, "Indeed, it's been hard."

At this moment, Chen Qiao couldn't help but show doubt on his face: "The Supreme Racing Car is already completed, so why does Wang Meng still have to work hard?"

Chen Qiao looked at Lu Yu, then at Wang Meng.

"Because... Lu Yu wants us to create two games in the next two weeks, that is, before the competition deadline."

Wang Meng said so.

Chen Qiao was stunned, and for a moment he couldn't react.

In the next two weeks, make two games?

What does that mean?

Hasn't Lu Yu already prepared two games for the final round of the competition?
