Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's words, Ko Gohon's eyes instantly lit up and he anxiously said, "Uncle Kazuma, I've realized my mistakes. Quickly teach me, what do I have to do?!"
"Currently, the previous bet is already over. We'll just ignore it and not consider it any further." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "So, now, we mainly have to focus on the online novel website.
"According to your bet with Hong Dali, the person with the most number of daily updated books two weeks later wins. If it's according to your idea to increase the flat fees of the authors at the novel website and find ghostwriters to increase the number of novels, all these can more or less be done, but it's still far from enough!
"In this day and age, channels are the king.
"Number one, get through all the possible channels of the novel website and liaise with our joint venture companies in Heavenly State. As long as they are enterprises related to the internet, they must all advertise on the novel website.
"Number two, liaise with the telecommunication companies in Heavenly State and get them to send messages to prompt people to read our novels!
"Number three, liaise with all the web portals in Heavenly State, including Weibo, and open all channels to read our novels.
"Number four, hold a free of charge reading day to attract those readers that are used to reading free of charge books.
"Number five, hype things up and expose our Feng Yun website's remunerations for our authors on all the websites related to novels!
"Number six, liaise with the TV stations to interview our authors and create more exposure for the website!" 
Upon hearing Shiroishi Kazuma's suggestions, Ko Gohon's face glowed as he firmly smacked his thigh. "Understood. I'll get these done right away!"
…
In the next few days, advertisements about Feng Yun website suddenly emerged everywhere. Advertisements for Feng Yun website were all over all the various websites in Heavenly State.
"Feng Yun website is the largest local reading base, free of charge reading and downloading of the novels. No pop-up ads, simple and clean webpage. Come to Feng Yun website to find good novels!"—Haoche Website. 
"Feng Yun website is an online novel website with no pop-up ads, providing the latest and best novels for all novel lovers. Come to Feng Yun website to read novels!"—Dream Paris.
"Feng Yun website provides you with various literature works with no advertisements to spoil your reading experience. It's a website which creates an elegant environment to read novels for all friends who are literature lovers, and the content includes various popular novels."—Guodian Online. 
…
On smartphones.
Countless people throughout Heavenly State had received messages about Feng Yun website's novels.
"We welcome you to the free of charge reading column, Feng Yun website provides all kinds of awesome and exciting novels." 
"[Urban] Personal Show: My Best Grade Missy."
"[Military Affairs] Special Operation of the Falcons: Special Force Number One." 
"[History] Great Waves Again in the Court: Big Fatuous Ruler."
"[Urban] Exceedingly Beautiful Superior: Pretty Tenant."
"[Fantasy] Wuzun Sword Slashes The Vault Of Heaven: Wudao Vault of Heaven."
Countless curious readers clicked on the advertisements, and after taking a few glances, they were satisfied with what they saw. "Mm, these book recommendations are not bad. It's quite good to kill time. This Feng Yun website is quite brilliant!"
Of course, there were those unimpressed as well. "Tsk, such a tacky way of promoting books. Now that there is the smartphone reading app produced by Young Master Hong Dali, who would still want to read these. Zhong Dian website is the king!"
…
On Xinhai Weibo—
Drunk and leaning on the fence of the pavilion, Meng Ziying Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novel 'Yifan's trouble' is very well written. I like how Yifan bullies Shaowan, serves him right for bullying Xiaochao… Mm, amusing as usual, this work is quite good." 
Douban Doujiao Doubao Weibo Talent: "Feng Yun website's novels are quite good. I read novels there the whole day today. The books are not bad! Worth taking a look at them, I strongly recommend!
@Tangdou-like unlucky person: Feng Yun website is not bad, quickly gather and take a look @Dark Building Lonely Spirit 
@Dark Night Vigilante 
@Zuiyu Changwan_Shifu Calls Me Xiaowan @Muying Huange_Little Angel Of The Wolf Master 
@Fleeting Time At Finger Tips."
"Feng Yun website rises strongly, regarding the rise of online literature."—Soulang.
"Earth-shaking big scheme, about the counterattack of Feng Yun website."—Easy Net.
"Small online novel, big wealth! Feng Yun website's powerful rise!"—Dongfang Wealth.
"Read novels, go to Feng Yun website. Write novels, still go to Feng Yun website."—Tianjing's Plaza.
…
In the various readers' group chats.
"These two days, there are so many free books to read on Feng Yun website. I've discovered a few good ones."
"Really, then I'll go and take a look too."
"Of course it's true, it writes that the books are free of charge for a limited period of time!"
"Not bad, not bad. This website is doing pretty well!"
…
On the largest local online novel forum.
"Overwhelming amount of subscriptions! Feng Yun website with all kinds of awesomeness!"
"Zhong Dian or Feng Yun? A newbie feels that Feng Yun is still better!"
"Please help, a newcomer wanting to know whether it's better to go to Feng Yun or Zhong Dian? I personally feel that Feng Yun is better, I can earn quick money."
"Zhong Dian wants to defeat Feng Yun just by relying on a smartphone app, does Feng Yun know about this?"
…
At the TV station.
"Hello, hello, as a Great God-level author on Feng Yun website, may I know how much can your monthly earnings reach?"
"Earnings, this… Around 20 to 30 thousand per month is still fine."
"So much? Then you must be one of those people with the highest earnings on Feng Yun website, right?"
"No! How is it possible that my earnings are so high. My fingers are not nimble, so I type considerably slower. We have people who can type fast and are able to write 10 to 20 thousand words per day, and their remuneration is at least 50 thousand and above per month. There are even people earning 100 thousand!"
"So much?!"
"Yes, Feng Yun website's perks are very good."
…
In Tianjing City, the tallest television tower, in the top floor revolving restaurant.
"Young Master, Chief, the latest totaled reports of Feng Yun website are out!" The bodyguard was shivering with fear as he looked at Shiroishi Kazuma whose back was facing him and was standing in front of the window with his hands placed at his back. This time, he really saluted him. "According to the latest reports, currently, the site traffic of the website has already increased to 2.4 million and above for daily independent IPs. These two days, large batches of newcomers have started writing new books, and the number of updated books in three days have already reached 3,600 books!" 
"So fast!" Ko Gohon exclaimed, "Uncle Kazuma, your idea is really useful!"
"So-so." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm. "How many daily updated books does Zhong Dian website have now?"
"Chief," The bodyguard's expression and voice were filled with respect. "At the moment, there are approximately 4,500 newly updated books daily."
"Mm, we still lack 900 books." Shiroishi Kazuma said with satisfaction, "It's still within our control. If things continue progressing this way, probably in no time, we will be able to overtake Zhong Dian website. After all, the authors are after all the benefits and perks. As long as there is enough advertising, and the money is sufficient, it's not difficult to attract authors over."
Ko Gohon fully looked up to Shiroishi Kazuma now, as he anxiously asked, "Uncle Kazuma, then, do we continue like this? Why don't I get more ghostwriters to write more books? It's fine as long as it can surpass Hong Dali. I don't plan to earn much money from it."
Upon hearing Ko Gohon's words, Shiroishi Kazuma shook his head and slowly said, "No, if Hong Dali can earn money, why can't we?"
"Ah?" Ko Gohon said in surprise, "Uncle Kazuma, you're planning to… seriously run this Feng Yun website?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma nodded, yet he didn't continue talking about the novel website but instead looked out of the window, saying, "Young Master Gohon, look at the night view of Tianjing City. How beautiful is it? It's not lacking compared to Tokyo in our Jaban Empire, isn't it?" 
It was night right now. The night view of Tianjing City was extremely beautiful. Neon lights were flashing, and it was especially comfortable to stand from high up and look down, coupled with the gentle night breeze.
"It's very pretty." Ko Gohon agreed. "I haven't really noticed it previously."
"Yes, we haven't noticed it previously." Shiroishi Kazuma's voice was very calm, as he slowly stated, "It's the same for our Toyoda Conglomerate. As the top 16 in the world, the funds of our Toyoda Conglomerate are ample. You normally don't care about this, so you won't care about how much money you spend. You just feel that all the money is there for you to take it."
"I understand, Uncle Kazuma." Upon hearing this, Ko Gohon instantly understood what Shiroishi Kazuma meant.
Actually, he wasn't a stupid person. It was just that in the midst of fighting with Hong Dali, he had always been at the losing end, thus his conflicted mind.
Toyoda Conglomerate was indeed very rich. Just like the night view of Tianjing City, though it was pretty, one wouldn't notice it after looking at it for many times. But no matter how rich it was, after all, it had been built up bit by bit, and it didn't just drop down from the sky.
In that case, as long as they properly operated this Feng Yun website, then they could earn money. So why don't they do it properly and well?
"Uncle Kazuma, what should we do next?" Ko Gohon asked.
"Now since the popularity has already been increased, then next, we'll take in all the good ones and eliminate the bad ones." Shiroishi Kazuma slowly said, "Eliminate all those poor-quality books and get them to finish writing them as soon as possible. Secure those good-quality books and do your best in nurturing their authors. At the same time, slightly change the welfare benefits policy and slowly convert the severance method to giving out dividends. After the novel website has entered a stable phase of operation, it would then be a virtuous cycle." 
"Uncle Kazuma, you are brilliant!" Ko Gohon was elated. "Then, after the website has entered a virtuous cycle, we can earn quite a lot of money, right?"
"Yes." Shiroishi Kazuma smiled. "Don't belittle online novel websites. All the profits from the adaptations of films, online games, merchandises and so on are actually huge. I truly admire Hong Dali. The things started up by this lad truly have very big prospects!" 
"After hearing what Uncle Kazuma just said, I realized that this Hong Dali is very brilliant!" Now, Ko Gohon finally had to admit that Hong Dali was indeed brilliant. "I haven't thought about all this!"
Speaking up to this point, Ko Gohon recalled his bet with Hong Dali. "But Uncle Kazuma, my bet with Hong Dali…"
"Hehe, there's no hurry on that." Shiroishi Kazuma wasn't worried at all about the bet and insipidly said, "Since I've come, of course I have a way to help you win. Wait for a few more days, let's see first whether Hong Dali's side makes any moves."
Shiroishi Kazuma assured Ko Gohon, then instructed him, "Remember, leave your trump card for the last. Don't take them all out at once. Or else, what will you have left to fight him by then?"
"I understand!" This time, Ko Gohon was really convinced. "Thank you for your advice, Uncle Kazuma."


"I have to squander; otherwise, won't it be a waste of my parent's talent at earning money?" Hong Dali answers a reporter's question matter-of-factly. 

Just after the interview ends, Hong Dali opens the Great Prodigal System's interface and looks at the various good stuff displayed in it. Stroking his chin, he mumbles to himself, "I just need to squander 200 billion yuan more to exchange for the blueprint of the core technology, Engine Destruction, found in the strongest humanoid mecha weapon, Neo Granzon. Looks like I'll have to work harder!"

"I want to splurge! I want to squander!"

"Stop talking so much. Come down, it's something good," Yuan Zhou said, shutting Wu Hai's grumbling mouth.
"Something good? Are you making something good for me to eat? Yes, I shall not walk away from this honor," Wu Hai started running.
When Wu Hai reached, Yuan Zhou saw that he was still dressed in blue long sleeves shirt and a pair of sandals. His hair was somewhat long, yet his mustache was still trimmed neatly. He was gazing at Yuan Zhou expectantly.
"No new dishes, but you will get to eat free food," Yuan Zhou said in deadly earnest.
"You will actually let me eat for free?" Wu Hai eyed Yuan Zhou suspiciously. It was obvious he did not trust those words.
One could not blame Wu Hai for this. Each time he ate Yuan Zhou's food, he would have to either pay with cash or work hard for it. He had never enjoyed any free food from Yuan Zhou.
And thus, he was greatly suspicious of Yuan Zhou's motive.
"There will be an event soon and two representatives are needed to judge the food of other restaurants. The representatives will have the right to voice their opinions," Yuan Zhou gave a simple explanation.
"Right to voice my opinions? Do you mean I need to go eat at other restaurants and criticize their food?" Wu Hai asked.
"Not criticize. Just voice your opinions on their food. Moreover, you will only be required to visit one restaurant," Yuan Zhou said.
"Sichuan Exemplary Restaurant, yes, I think I saw something about that before," Wu Hai muttered to himself. Then, he concluded, "Since you have joined this event, you will definitely need to send your representatives as well."
"Yeap." Yuan Zhou nodded.
In truth, Yuan Zhou had no idea if Wu Hai would agree to this request. After all, Wu Hai had never eaten at other restaurants when Yuan Zhou's restaurant was open.
Even if he had to attend some gatherings, he would first eat at Yuan Zhou's restaurant before attending the gathering.
Yuan Zhou knew this very well.
"Sure, I'll go. But you need two, right?" Wu Hai nodded without hesitation before asking.
Yuan Zhou was slightly astonished but he still answered, "Yes, two. I am planning to get Ling Hong to be my second representative. He should be free for now."
"No Discount Ling? He can't be a representative," Wu Hai waved his hand, clearly looking down on Ling Hong when it came to eating.
He lamented that there were no expert eaters among the customers of Yuan Zhou's restaurant.
Yuan Zhou did not say anything. He merely gazed at Wu Hai.
"I think Yu Chu is better. He did very well in information gathering for the website and he has done extensive research on eating," Wu Hai suggested with a bizarre smile while rubbing his mustache.
"It will be very interesting if Yu Chu is the representative instead," Wu Hai thought to himself.
"Does Yu Chu has the time for this?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"He will make the time for anything concerning you, Compass." Wu Hai said. He added, "Moreover, you know his superior very well anyway. It won't be a problem even if he needs to take leave from work to help you."
Yuan Zhou ignored the part about the superior. He started seriously considering Yu Chu as a representative.
"I'll talk to him when I see him during lunch," Yuan Zhou nodded and accepted Wu Hai's proposal.
"Ok," Wu Hai nodded.
"Thank you." Yuan Zhou thanked. 
"Don't worry about it. You are Compass, so I have to help you with this. But don't forget me the next time you have some good food," said Wu Hai righteously as he rubbed his mustache.
"Wait a bit," Yuan Zhou paused slightly before saying.
"So you really have something nice?" Wu Hai's interest was immediately piqued.
"I made something two days ago. But it's something sweet," Yuan Zhou said with a nod.
Wu Hai never liked eating sweet food, with the exception being Yuan Zhou's sweet food. Of course, he still ate very little of them in comparison to spicy food.
"So what if it's sweet? If it's your food, I'll eat it even if it's bitter," Wu Hai said as he slapped his chest, clearly intending to showcase his loyalty.
"Sure, I'll make something bitter for you next time," Yuan Zhou replied seriously.
"No, please, that was a joke. But why not we take a look at this sweet food you got?" Wu Hai surrendered.
"I'll go get it," Yuan Zhou said and went back into the restaurant.
The moment Yuan Zhou went into the restaurant, he opened the sergestes wall landscape and walked into the courtyard of the pub. That was where he stored the sweet food.
In about three minutes, Yuan Zhou came out with the food on hand.
"Is this jam?" Wu Hai asked when he saw the purple substance in transparent bottles.
"I made some jam from the mulberries I bought," Yuan Zhou said with a nod.
"It might not be as good as blueberry jam and the ingredients are not sourced from my usual supplier," Yuan Zhou said before Wu Hai could say anything.
"Don't worry. It looks good," Wu Hai took two bottles of mulberry jam and quickly stuffed them into his pocket.
Yuan Zhou gazed at Wu Hai's clothes. It was quite weird since before this, he did not notice any pockets on Wu Hai. So he wondered where had Wu Hai stuffed those two bottles of jam.
One could not blame Wu Hai for not believing Yuan Zhou when he claimed that this jam might not be as good. After all, he used crystal bottles instead of glass bottles for the jam. The bottle was hexagon-shaped, and with the purple jam within, the entire thing looked both pretty and appetizing.
"You only have two bottles?" Wu Hai asked as he peeked into the restaurant.
"Two bottles per person," Yuan Zhou said.
"Sure. Give me two more bottles then," Wu Hai said as he stretched his hand out.
Yuan Zhou gazed at Wu Hai silently with a calm expression. Evidently, he was already used to Wu Hai's shamelessness and was prepared to ignore him again.
"There is a reason for this. Zheng Jiawei is getting two bottles as well, right? Pass it to me and I'll bring it to him," Wu Hai offered.
"Will you pass it to him?" Yuan Zhou was no idiot and would not trust Wu Hai.
"Of course. Have trust in my character," Wu Hai nodded seriously.
Yuan Zhou stared at Wu Hai when he heard these words. It had only been a few hours since he saw Wu Hai but everything seemed to have changed? Even Wu Hai had a trustworthy character now?
Wu Hai met Yuan Zhou's gaze directly.
When Yuan Zhou confirmed that this Wu Hai would not falter by his questioning gaze, he spoke.
"I'm going to prepare lunch ingredients."
"Remember my two extra bottles of mulberry jam," Wu Hai shouted outside the restaurant.
"He was just saying he would help pass it over. It doesn't even take him long to expose his true intentions," Yuan Zhou was speechless and decided to pretend he heard nothing. He continued on with his task at hand.
While preparing the lunch ingredients, a concern suddenly appeared in his mind.
"That unit of measurement using my name seemed to have originated from Yu Chu, right? Won't he be too harsh if I make him my representative?" Yuan Zhou wondered.
But when he thought of how even Wu Hai, who would never eat somewhere else had agreed to join, there shouldn't be a problem with having Yu Chu joining as well.
In any case, there were no other suitable candidates. He needed to pay more attention to the Yuan Zhou Gourmet Review Website as well.
After the launch of Yuan Zhou Gourmet Review Website, it received the support from many foodies. Many Chengdu foodies had turned the website into their headquarters.
As the person in charge of marketing, Ling Hong did his job very well and managed to get several famous food forums to redirect traffic to the Yuan Zhou Gourmet Review Website. Thus, the website enjoyed a healthy traffic.
The reason why Yuan Zhou's restaurant had never been targeted by other restaurants before was because the chef was truly very skillful. Moreover, the restaurant was tiny yet expensive. As such, there would be minimal effects on the other restaurants.
Simply put, the benefits of the other restaurants weren't threatened, and thus, they did not care. But now that the Yuan Zhou Gourmet Review Website was using Yuan Zhou's restaurant as the unit of measurement, that would be a threat.
Thus, apart from comments from the foodies, there were also some disgruntled comments on the website now. 
"Heh, using a tiny restaurant as a unit of measurement? The scope is too small."
"I thought this was a trusted website, but I am greatly disappointed. This website is as good as dead."
"In my opinion, the Sichuan Cuisine at Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant is better."
"Here, a sad song for you. You're welcome."
Such comments were starting to appear, though they still weren't too conspicuous since they were still being buried among the many comments of the foodies.


In a remote oriental country, there is a small and odd restaurant that has refused the three-star rating by the Michelin Guide several times. 
“The price is fairly expensive over there, 288RMB for a set meal of Egg Fried Rice and a bowl of soup. Ah, and an extra small plate of pickled vegetables as well. Even so, there are still a long line of people queuing up and waiting for a taste. Reservations are not accepted there, only waiting and queuing personally is allowed. 
“Numerous people fly there on their private planes just to queue up. Furthermore, parking bays and parking spots are not provided there. The service is terrible here. Customers have to clear the tableware themselves and wipe the table as well. For god’s sake, the boss is literally crazy.”

China's cinemas may be fearing bankruptcy [1]due to protracted COVID-19-related lockdown restrictions, but businesses offering online entertainment are upbeat about the future.
Nearly 10 new films that were originally scheduled for release at cinemas, had reached audiences for free using online channels as of June 23. The first in the series is Lost in Russia on ByteDance's platforms like Toutiao and TikTok.

The new films' online releases have provoked uproar in China's film industry. Some fear massive loss of ticket sales revenue. Even though film production companies reportedly said online releases are not going to generate adequate profits, they still shifted to online solutions, in case waiting for theatrical release may cause more loss given the current situation.
For instance, Lost in Russia was reportedly under a bet-on agreement with HG Entertainment to receive over 2.4 billion yuan ($340 million) in box-office receipts in exchange for free distribution and a 600 million yuan payment. Given the coronavirus outbreak, the ambitious goal seemed less unlikely. On the other side, ByteDance's offer of 630 million yuan without further obligations was certainly more attractive, market insiders said.
Enter the Fat Dragon team told media that its switch to online release was to pre-empt pirated versions in China, as the film has been released in many countries, including Malaysia and Singapore.
With more films releasing online, traffic to video-streaming platforms has soared of late.
Take Lost in Russia. Within three days of the film's e-release, online views surpassed 600 million. Video-streaming apps of ByteDance like JinriToutiao and Xigua saw increasing downloads. Xigua even topped the list of free downloads on App Store, according to a report by news website 36kr.com.

Chen Wenchao, who was holding the USB flash drive, left the computer room while mumbling in despair.
Looking at his swaying back view, Cloud Hao couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Is this what it feels like to be a top student?
I love it… 
However, although this feeling was rather intoxicating, Cloud Hao was well aware that there were only less than ten hours left till the expiration of the enlightenment gem.
Without wasting time on savoring this intoxicating pleasure, Cloud Hao skilfully opened the search engine and typed the four digits, 2048.
As he expected, this game did not exist in this world, neither did similar rival products.
In fact, Earth in this parallel world was different from the Earth in his previous life.
The material aspect in this world was clearly more prosperous, especially in Country Xia, the winner of the "Competitive Era" and the People's Alliance leader. Even the computers in the school's computer room were equipped with discrete graphics, quad-core processors. Everything from the computer chip to the system was locally produced.
It was just in comparison, because until the first year of the New Calendar, the worldwide situation was quite tense. It was only after the first year of the New Calendar that the entertainment industry began to bud and sprout.
It was also only after the first year of the New Calendar that emerging industries such as video games flew into ordinary folks' homes together with smart devices such as computers and mobile phones, following the transformation of military production lines and evolution of the electronics industry for civilian use.
According to his father, game consoles were still a rarity in the two years after he was born. Most of the popular songs sang the praises of the stability and prosperity of society, as well as the unity and great victory of the People's Alliance. Things remained that way until he was ten, when the global entertainment industry truly bloomed.
As a result, video games in this era were still in a rather chaotic phase.
First of all, it was due to the strict protection by copyright law. The development of both online games and stand-alone markets in Country Xia, and even worldwide, was relatively balanced compared to his previous life where mobile games dominated the market.
Furthermore, one of the strongest weapons in this new age culture was that some high-quality niche games could also likewise be supported by the relevant departments, just like music, animation, and movies, rather than treating them as menacing monsters.
However, the lack of time might have resulted in some creative gameplays and out-of-the-box ideas being overlooked during that era.
At least from the perspective of Cloud Hao, a game designer and a hardcore player, the most popular and large-scale MMORPG, "The Oracle", was quite dull in gameplay and storyline.
The graphics might be a highlight.
After all, in the 18th year of the New Calendar, the strength of Country Xia's electronics industry was extremely strong…
Game developers also had the confidence to make the graphics and special effects bigger and better.
"Country Xia's largest domestic game platform is the E-fun platform under E-fun Technologies. The basic contract share allotment for independent game producers is 50% before tax… At present, it should be the platform with the highest shares allotment and the most liberal game launching policy in the industry.
"That's the one!"
Cloud Hao's eyes lit up. He downloaded the free development tools from the cooperation page on the official website.
Although the workload of creating a game was not light, it also depended on what kind of game it was.
For mini-games like 2048, whose graphics could even be created with the free Powerpoint tools, he needed at most one afternoon to get it done.
No, it might not even take that long.
There were only two basic modules that needed to be developed—one was the game itself, and the other was the ranking system.
There were ready-made templates available that could be used for the latter, while the former was not that complicated. After all, the rules of the game were simple.
The rule was to add two identical numbers together by moving up and down or left and right, whereas two different numbers would not be able to merge together. When all the grids were full and could be moved further, it would be considered a loss. When a 2048 tile was formed amongst all the numbers, it was considered a win. All these operations could more or less be realized with the help of arrays and functions.
After winning the game, one could choose to continue and form a tile with the largest number to be calculated as the number of points scored, which was then computed into the ranking table.
As the free development tools provided on the official website were excellent, Cloud Hao felt that even people with no programming experience could restore the game using the functions in the development tools.
The only difference probably lay in the quality of the programming.
However, Cloud Hao was still very skeptical. For such a mini-game, is there really a difference in quality?
He busied himself until 5 pm and finished developing it. Cloud Hao then casually played two games to test it out.
After verifying that there were no bugs, he packaged all the programs according to the format requirements on the E-fun official website and dragged them into the folder to be uploaded.
"If it can reach 100,000 downloads, the system's mission will be completed."
Cloud Hao, about to accomplish his goal, smiled and contentedly leaned back in his chair.
"If it's launched at the minimum price of one yuan, the pre-tax income will be 50,000 yuan… I wonder if independent game producers without any registered company can apply for tax incentives."
50,000 yuan!
Not only can I compensate that girl for her screen, but I can also afford to give her a brand new mobile phone.
If all goes well, I might not even need to trouble my family to fork out money to pay for my tuition fees next year.
However, to be perfectly honest, Cloud Hao wasn't very confident about the content of what he had come up with.
After all, the space this game occupied might not even be as much as a high-definition full-sized image. Yet, what was prevalent in this world were large-scale online games that were rich in social components and had impressive, explosive graphics.
A mini-game?
It was hard to determine whether there was even soil for it to grow on.
However…
He didn't have any better choice.
He clicked on the upload button with the mouse. Cloud Hao was just about to stretch himself and turn off the computer when a dialog box popped up on the screen and stunned him.
[Please select your payment method]
Payment method?
What the heck is that?
Cloud Hao, vaguely sensing that something was amiss, swiftly opened the explanatory notes on the E-fun official website about launching a game. Only after reading the last line did he realize that…
It's not free to launch a game. The registration fee is 2,000 yuan!
F*ck!
I haven't even made any money yet, but you want me to fork out money first?
Isn't this unscrupulous firm scamming people?!
Seeing this not-too-high threshold, which was just sufficient to stop him, Cloud Hao fell silent.
The money in his pocket didn't even add up to 800 yuan, much less 2000. If he didn't find a part-time job, he might not be able to save this 2000 yuan even if he scrimped and saved until the end of the year.
Borrow from my family?
Using what reason?
Although the Country Xia in this lifetime did not regard video games as menacing monsters, the parents born during the times of the old calendar might not think the same.
Cloud Hao felt that if he were to ask for money and so much as to mention the word 'game', the conversation with his dad would not be able to continue.
How about… 
I look for a platform where I can publish games for free?
But most of the website traffic on such platforms is very low… 
With this lousy game, it might not garner 100,000 players even if it was free, let alone selling it for one yuan.
At that moment, Cloud Hao was caught in a dilemma.
However, just as he was struggling, the mobile phone with prepaid value suddenly vibrated.
After two seconds, a line of words then popped up.
He glanced at the sender ID, which said 'Creditor'.
With a resigned look on his face, Cloud Hao picked up the phone and unlocked the screen.
[Hey, it's been a few days. When are you going to pay me back? *Small knife emoji*]
[It's only 3,000 yuan. You're a man. What's taking you so long? (`д́)]
[Let me warn you, if you dare to run away from your debt, I'll not let you off! I'm super serious! (`~ ́)]
The murderous aura for the debt payment was practically boring a hole in the screen. Cloud Hao involuntarily moved the phone half an inch further away.
Why are you chasing me? Don't you find it annoying pressing me every few hours? Am I the kind of person who will run away from my debt?
Isn't it just three thousand yuan?
Don't look down on me!
"Can you lend me another two thousand? I'll pay everything together before the end of the month."
Afraid that she wouldn't lend him the money, Cloud Hao hesitated for a moment before pressing down on the mic button and added, "Need it urgently!"


How does it feel to find out that all your dorm mates are big shots on your first day of school?

Hao Yun has the most say in this matter.

Having been chosen by the Otherworldly Expert System, he unexpectedly obtains the ability to see the future potential of others. He discovers that his roommates are all future big shots with explosive potential.

Then why should he work hard?

Wouldn't just being cozy with them solve all problems?

Normal people would think that way, and Hao Yun is no exception.

However, just when Hao Yun thinks that he can easily become a winner in life as long as he cozies up with them, she surprisingly finds these so-called big shots are quite fragile.

And these great artists, superstars, academics, and the richest people in the world, who finally reach the pinnacle of their lives with the help of "coincidences", can't help but feel lucky when they are interviewed. They are glad that they had such a hidden expert by their side…

Hao Yun: Great, after all this, I am actually your fortuitous encounter!
