You said you would make games by yourself, but how did you become the richest man by doing nothing?

On the stage, Dakman, around fifty years old, sported a thick, lush beard.

He wore a fashionable casual suit, his shirt open, his expression relaxed and arrogant.

His sharp gaze swept across the guests below the stage, his voice filled with sarcasm:

“Please forgive me for being so direct, but this is the reality as I see it.

The gaming industry in China, as it stands, is not just behind the times in terms of game graphics technology, but completely stagnant in all aspects.

You lack professional scriptwriters, so many of your game products don't have complete IP operations.

At the same time, you lack people who truly understand gameplay and level design, so your games always lack challenge.

Most of your studios are still stuck in the stage of small workshops, without establishing mature industrial processes.”

Dakman ruthlessly listed the current state of the industry, and the faces of the guests sitting in their seats varied.

Some looked angry, some lowered their heads in shame, some jokers tried to applaud in support, but most remained silent.

Dakman continued to laugh:

“Even the so-called rising stars of gaming were discussing how to cleverly extract more money from players.

Therefore, most games in the Chinese market cannot be called games, but only cruel social software that compares players' wealth.

Even in this forum, you always talk about red oceans and blue oceans, about revenue and profits.

None of you talk about the art of game design. Games should be the ninth art, but you treat them as mere tools for making money.”

These words hit the hearts of domestic producers below the stage like a heavy hammer, leaving them in silence and embarrassment.

Some were angry at the provocation and mockery of this foreign producer, but could not immediately refute it.

The games made by Naughty Dog, whether in terms of sales or awards, can be ranked among the best in the history of video games worldwide.

They even won the [TGA Game of the Year], known as the Oscars of gaming, which is the highest honor that gamers around the world can enjoy.

And on this award list, there doesn't seem to be a single Chinese game winner.

Most manufacturers under the stage do not have the ability to produce 3A single-player games, and do not even have the qualifications to compete with the other party on the same stage.

Therefore, Dakman has the capital to be arrogant.

Lu Yu also recalled that China's truly meaningful 3A masterpiece that benchmarked international standards, 《Black Myth: Wukong》, would not release a trailer until ten years later.

Many guests clenched their fists tightly. They knew, of course, that what this producer said was not entirely unreasonable.

They were not stupid, and they knew the problems of the domestic game industry very well, but the fact that these weaknesses were pointed out so bluntly by a foreigner still made them feel extremely humiliated.

What's more, the domestic market is about to usher in the impact of home console games.

A haze enveloped the hearts of practitioners.

Faced with the satire and provocation of this foreign producer, Lu Yu knew that now was not the time to refute.

However, subconsciously, a small, inconspicuous flame had already been ignited by the producer's words.

……

After the forum session, it was free social time.

The atmosphere in the venue gradually returned to liveliness, and many reporters, like released beasts, flocked to Lu Yu and Liu Mengyuan.

The crowd jostled, and the cameras and microphones were almost pressed against their faces. Lu Yu raised his hand to protect Liu Mengyuan to prevent her from being pushed over.

A reporter couldn't wait to ask:

“President Lu, tell me the truth, what is the secret to the success of Peach Blossom Village?”

Lu Yu shook his head with a wry smile: “To be honest, I really don’t know.”

These words came from the heart, and he really didn't want to be so successful. Who knew that a hit product would come and couldn't be driven away.

If he wasn't troubled by this, why would he often hide on the island or take his employees out for a stroll?

Seeing the disappointed expressions on the reporters' faces, Liu Mengyuan's beautiful eyes sparkled, and she added very appropriately:

“Although we don’t understand the reason for our success yet.

But we will do our best to pursue new dreams, and share the valuable experience and memories formed in this process with everyone in the future.”

Lu Yu glanced at Liu Mengyuan's delicate profile.

As expected of the vice president, the response was very appropriate. This good helper is becoming more and more satisfactory.

After the reporter Q\u0026A session, a group of people in suits and leather shoes surrounded him enthusiastically.

“Hello, President Lu, we are from Tenghui's strategic investment department.

Can we discuss Tenghui's investment in Peach Blossom Village? Don't worry, we will offer very favorable investment conditions. After the investment, your games can use our TT and Weixin channels, and we can also provide our Unreal Engine technical support.

Moreover, we only invest money and never interfere in daily operations.”

Lu Yu shook his head and declined.

Once Tenghui invests, it means that the company is likely to lose its dominance in the future, and Tenghui may parachute in a group of involution-king directors. At that time, there will not be enough points to deduct.

After the people from Tenghui left in disappointment, the bosses of other small and medium-sized game studios also came forward to hand out business cards.

Lingniu Interactive Entertainment, Shengju Company, Beautiful World, Nanshanju, Soumao Changyou, Xintiao Network……

Yesterday, Peach Blossom Village really helped them vent their anger on Youyi at their own booth.

Lu Yu did not refuse these overtures. More friends mean more paths.

As the industry annual meeting officially ended, this year's EASTJOY came to a perfect conclusion.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ is ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

And Peach Blossom Village was the biggest winner of this exhibition. The major forums on the Internet are still discussing the various anecdotes and gossip of this exhibition with great interest.

……

August 28th.

The weekend after the end of the exhibition, Lu Yu and Liu Mengyuan were resting at home.

The warm sunshine shone through the windows onto the floor of the master bedroom, making people feel warm and lazy.

Liu Mengyuan was lying on the small sofa, holding a food magazine in her hands, enjoying the rare tranquility.

She was wearing a loose white cotton shirt, which was tied around her waist, outlining her slender waist and smooth, slender jade legs.

The slightly curly shawl hair shone with an alluring luster in the sun.

Just as she was immersed in the food in the book and her mouth was drooling, Dabai jumped in from the window sill next door again.

The wise blue cat eyes sparkled, and it jumped happily onto the sofa and began to twist its chubby body and roll around cutely.

It kept rolling to Liu Mengyuan, patted Liu Mengyuan's leg with its small fleshy paws, as if to indicate:

“Stupid shoveling officer, hurry up and play with me.”

Liu Mengyuan smiled and bent down, reaching out to gently stroke Dabai's fur.

Dabai began to enjoy the master-level cat-stroking technique, and its throat made a series of comfortable purring sounds.

Liu Mengyuan's nails were carefully trimmed and painted with light pink nail polish, making her slender hands even more delicate.

Her fingers moved back and forth through Dabai's fur, and her mood became peaceful and happy.

Dabai rolled over and lay completely on Liu Mengyuan's white legs, with a lazy look on its face.

Its little paws lifted up, stroking Liu Mengyuan's fingers, and Liu Mengyuan was instantly amused by this cute action and laughed out loud.

“This…this is just too foul!”

She held up her mobile phone camera and began to focus on filming Dabai.

At this time, Lu Yu was reading in the study.

From his direction, Liu Mengyuan sometimes squatted down, sometimes leaned over, and every movement showed off her perfect figure curves. The hair that was raised from time to time revealed her slender neck, which was both sexy and pure.

At the moment when she leaned over and lay on the small sofa, the neckline of her shirt was slightly open, and Lu Yu could catch a glimpse of her snow-white and full, proud career line.

He thought to himself, “Dabai, well done, keep going!”

Afterwards, Liu Mengyuan took the filmed video to the computer and started editing.

Since the promotional video at the EASTJOY exhibition achieved great success, Liu Mengyuan also fell in love with editing videos.

While editing, the system light curtain popped up a prompt:

[Congratulations, the host's repeated practice has triggered a guaranteed reward, and the 'Video Editing' skill has been upgraded to Lv3]

“If you are willing to edit videos, you can usually take pictures of Dabai and upload them to Station D to become a cute pet UP master.”

Lu Yu laughed.
