Chapter 19: Chapter Nineteen: Sorry, We Don

Come back tomorrow?

Upon hearing these words, Gao He was left speechless.

This was likely the first time since he became famous that someone had spoken to him like this.

Within Xia Nation, he had another nickname: the Walking God of Wealth; countless people begged him for meetings, yet he often ignored them.

Today, he came here voluntarily to meet a few young people, only to be turned down repeatedly.

Who would believe such a thing?

If this got out, his reputation as Gao He would be utterly ruined…

Of course.

Returning empty-handed, Gao He felt a lingering unease; these “strange” young people had stirred his most primal competitive spirit.

“How about this: could you please give me the contact details and address of that Qin Xiaoyu? I’ll go visit him myself.”

From their earlier replies, Gao He had already deduced that the key to success lay with this person named Qin Xiaoyu.

So Gao He had already made up his mind—he would go find him directly.

“This…”

Cai Qiu hesitated for a moment, then picked up pen and paper, wrote down Qin Xiaoyu’s number, and handed it to Gao He: “Director Gao, Brother Yu should be at Yuncheng Xijuxue Academy.”

Although Gao He didn’t say it outright, Cai Qiu guessed this man was very likely planning to invest in their studio.

Neither he nor Chen Wei could decide on such a matter—it was better to leave it to Brother Yu.

At the very least, it wasn’t a bad thing.

“Then thank you very much!”

Gao He took the contact information, thanked them, and rose to leave the studio.

…

In his past life, Qin Xiaoyu joined MHY and gradually rose from the lowest ranks to become a core team member.

He had experienced every aspect of game development, so voice recording work posed no difficulty.

Everything went smoothly.

During his afternoon break, Qin Xiaoyu’s phone received a text message.

It came from an unknown number.

The message was simple and direct.

The sender introduced himself as Gao He, CEO of Hongshan Investment, and invited him to dinner that evening.

If convenient, he would come to pick him up at five, and had already sent the license plate number.

Hongshan Investment, Gao He?

Could this be about the game “Genshin”?

This was easy to guess; Qin Xiaoyu searched his memories and found that the original owner had never met this man, let alone known him.

Moreover, he wasn’t a well-known figure.

The only thing others might find valuable was the game he held—“Genshin,” still unreleased.

But.

At this moment, Qin Xiaoyu was curious: was this man looking to acquire the company, or to take an equity stake?

Considering the recording work, by around five in the evening, he should be finished, and returning alone held no urgent matters.

After a moment’s thought,

Qin Xiaoyu did not outright refuse the invitation—he decided to see what this man was really up to.

These voice actors had worked hard all day, and Lin Su had helped him greatly; treating them to dinner was entirely reasonable.

Besides, this meal would be free.

Why not take advantage of it?

Thinking this, Qin Xiaoyu picked up his phone and quickly typed a reply:
