Didn’t expect to run into you in the car! How’ve you been lately?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Getting better, just really busy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Xiaoyu smiled; he held a good impression of Zhang Feng. Thinking of the thirty thousand yuan, he added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m transferring the money to you—thanks!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you being so formal for?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Feng glanced at the transfer notification popping up on WeChat, scolded him lightly, then added after a pause:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But since you’ve already sent it, I’ll take it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though this money wasn’t borrowed by Qin Xiaoyu himself, it wasn’t a large sum—and without it, his studio likely wouldn’t exist today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Qin Xiaoyu felt repaying it on behalf of the original owner was only right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you traveling for work?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Feng didn’t refuse the money when it was offered, accepted it right there, then looked up at him and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Going to Hancheng to handle something for a game company! What about you—how’ve you been?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no need to mention the award ceremony to everyone—it wasn’t a major prize anyway—so Qin Xiaoyu merely mentioned it in passing and turned the question back to Zhang Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Me? Don’t even bring it up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Feng shook his head and sighed: “I just quit my job a while back. Did some short videos, built up a small fanbase, now I’m doing livestreaming.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wild boom of livestreaming has long passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even for girls with fair skin, beauty, and long legs, becoming popular isn’t easy unless a guild is willing to pour money into promoting them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a man, making money in this field is even harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you livestream? Earlier you mentioned spending money—was it gaming? League or PUBG?” Qin Xiaoyu recalled Zhang Feng’s earlier words and asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s gaming, sure—but not the ones you mentioned. How many pro players are livestreaming now? What chance do newcomers like us have?”\u003C\u002Fp>",532,"2026-06-19T22:23:19.067Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","c373cd85f5bf35787297361e11919c502824b2a626bef72f9dc55cfa1f79d456","game-development-starting-from-a-2d-game-chapter-67","game-development-starting-from-a-2d-game-chapter-65",89,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgame-development-starting-from-a-2d-game-cover.jpg"]
