Chapter 40: Renaissance!

A billion in three months?

Should I say this bet agreement is too lenient, or that it’s an insult?

In his past life on Earth, Genshin Impact’s overseas revenue in its first month reached about $250 million.

So, the one-billion condition in this bet agreement might seem outrageous or too risky to many other game companies.

But to Qin Xiaoyu, it wasn’t that difficult.

With sufficient funding and time for large-scale promotion, breaking a billion was entirely possible.

After all, based on the current feedback from the Xia nation’s market, this parallel world was virtually identical to his past Earth.

Reducing the revenue share by ten percent carried almost zero risk.

After much deliberation, Qin Xiaoyu ultimately decided to set Global Inter Yu as the platform for Genshin Impact’s overseas release.

Of course, for now, it was only his unilateral decision.

Specific cooperation details still needed approval from the platform before further discussions and negotiations could begin.

Normally, this might take several working days.

But this wouldn’t significantly affect Qin Xiaoyu’s plans.

He had no money right now for large-scale overseas promotion anyway.

Half of the revenue from the first half of the 1.0 version’s gacha pools would need to be allocated to basic preparations.

He could only wait until the Klee gacha pool to make his next move.

As Qin Xiaoyu was thinking this, time slipped away unnoticed.

At that moment.

He remembered that Lao Cai and A Wei had asked him to send the revenue figures before leaving, so he checked the backend.

“Not bad!”

Qin Xiaoyu stared at the bottom line of numbers, his expression unchanged, murmuring calmly.

3.22 million!

This was the total revenue on the second day after Genshin Impact’s launch—nearly double the first day’s.

Slightly higher than his estimated 2.7 to 2.8 million, but not enough to surprise him.

He picked up his phone and sent the number to Lao Cai and A Wei.

Qin Xiaoyu had originally planned to make technical adjustments to the upcoming Klee gacha pool.

But his peripheral vision caught a few unread WeChat messages on his phone, so he picked it up again to glance at them.

The messages were sent by Yun Shuqian three hours ago.

They essentially said she had finished her meeting and asked if Qin Xiaoyu wanted to explore Teyvat together.

Considering the time, Yun Shuqian had probably already gone to sleep, so Qin Xiaoyu didn’t intend to disturb her; he simply replied, “Sorry, I was busy and didn’t check my phone. How about tomorrow night?” before putting the phone down.

Unexpectedly, Yun Shuqian replied with a voice message almost instantly: “Fine, I’ll wait for you! If you stand me up again tomorrow, you’re dead. Good night~”

“This woman…”

Qin Xiaoyu shook his head slightly; her first few words were clearly angry, yet the last line, “good night,” suddenly turned gentle.

Haha!

Women really are strange creatures…

…

After adjusting the second half of the 1.0 version’s gacha pools, Qin Xiaoyu checked the game’s operational status—all was stable.
