Chapter 251: Chapter 123 Out for fun or heading home?_2

The result of the internal meeting at Gou Star was that Mr. Xie compromised, and the platform would still primarily focus on games as the main source of traffic and profits.

So, Su Huai had no choice but to create several new accounts to reduce his public streamer metrics.

The reason was easy to understand: the platform had given too many concessions to the Xingyu Guild, ensuring that Su Huai wouldn’t make much money from it.

The larger Xingyu got, the more it would bleed the platform dry.

So they had to look for compensation through gaming.

Chen Jie specifically warned, "Gou God, try to avoid gaming as much as possible in the future. This is between you and me in private, I’m telling you the hard truth—the expected return for Dragon Slaying is down by at least 8 percentage points, you get it?"

Understood, that was all too clear.

In the past, without considering psychological factors, if you blindly bet on one option, the long-term return on 1 million was 948,000, and the remaining 52,000 would get siphoned off by the platform as a form of rake through the odds.

In the future, it would be ruthless—the platform would take more than 120,000.

And if you factor in human nature, winners win less and losers lose more. In short, it would be a bloodbath.

Even if it wasn’t Su Huai’s problem, he couldn’t help but criticize, "These kinds of betting games don’t need to rely on odds to make money at all. The psychology of the players almost guarantees they will lose, why make it so harsh?"

Betting and pulling blind boxes differ; pulling blind boxes is purely a game of luck with long-term returns infinitely close to the expected values.

But in multi-betting games, 99% of players can’t beat the fear of losing and the nature of winning less and losing more. There’s no need to take a cut.

However, Chen Jie immediately claimed innocence, "Gou God, you have no idea, our platform has quite a few professional players who specialize in this. They are consistently making profits at ratios above 1:2. The new rules hardly limit them. They can easily rake in more than 10 million a year..."

Su Huai was shocked, "Huh, there are professional players?"

Chen Jie swore, "Of course there are, keeping a low profile and using Dragon Slaying as an ATM. Those two called Qingteng and Guigu, they’ve recharged less than 2 million but cashed out almost 6 million, outrageously impressive!"

Su Huai believed it.

If it was a professional player who was excellent in math and had strong self-control, focusing on the game for a few hours to earn some pocket money was indeed easy.

It was much simpler than Texas Hold’em, and there are stable winners in that too, such as Poison King, Ivey, and so on.

But normal fish could never win, like Love Like Tide and Bai Qi.

Thinking of those two big brothers at home, Su Huai couldn’t help but ask, "What are the records for Love Like Tide and Bai Qi? Give me the lowdown."

Chen Jie hesitated for a moment and spoke softly, "God of Love has churned through over 25 million and lost as much, nearly reaching a total recharge of 50 million. Bai Qi hasn’t lost that much, but he’s nearly down by 8 million. Gou God, you need to be careful, it’s best not to have too much financial engagement with them..."

Chen Jie put it very politely and subtly.

Plainly understood: don’t lend them money, and don’t collaborate with them offline.

Su Huai definitely understood, otherwise he wouldn’t have asked in the first place.

"Heh, God of Love must have quite the deep pockets..."

"Yeah, God of Love still starts with recharges of 1 million now, but Bai Qi has already reduced to recharging 10,000 at a time, sometimes even 3,000."

"Thanks, Chen."

Su Huai appreciated it. The warning from Chen Jie was spot on, even risking offending big clients to do Su Huai a favor.

This platform was a huge trap, but in front of Su Huai, Old Chen still preferred to be a good guy.

And then, as if by a curious twist of fate, right after Chen Jie discussed this with Su Huai, Pei Shuyu sent him a message: "Daddy, Bai Qi is asking to borrow money from me, what do you think..."

"Don’t lend it!"

Su Huai immediately vetoed, "Just say your money hasn’t been settled yet, and you plan to invest directly in the guild for shares."

"Oh! But... would that be okay?"

"There’s nothing wrong with that, never trust a gambler, and don’t make friends with one either, got it?"

"Yeah yeah, okay, I’ll listen to you!"

Su Huai had an increasing dislike for the platform, but for development, he had to endure it a bit longer.

"I’ve talked with the platform, get ready, our guild will be listed on the Eleventh, officially changing its name. You need to start learning how to be a good President Pei..."

Pei Shuyu’s attention was diverted, full of anticipation she asked, "Can I see you on the Eleventh, Daddy?"

Well, you’re wishful thinking, I’m not even ready to get beaten up yet...

Su Huai glanced at his own appeal now digested to 74 points and physical fitness at 84 points, feeling not secure enough, so he didn’t want to see her at all.

"I’m busy on the Eleventh, and why are you in a rush to see me?"

The counter-question was quite effective.

Pei Shuyu blushed shyly, "Nothing special, what could I possibly want to do? I just want to see what my dear Daddy looks like, is that not allowed?"

"Very handsome."

Gou Huai pragmatically borrowed from his future appeal, teasing with a half-joking, half-spoiling tone, "Sword-like eyebrows and sparkling eyes, an eight-pack, completely different from what you’re imagining—a guaranteed huge shock. Are you excited?"

"Oh my!"

Pei Shuyu exclaimed, "Really? You’re not bragging?"

"I promise, he’s really handsome."

Even if he’s not so handsome now, he’ll be handsome enough in the future, so it’s not a lie.

"Then I’m super excited!"

Pei Shuyu seemed to fall into some kind of charming fantasy, giggling foolishly a couple of times.

"Wow! I can’t even think about it, I’ll be so happy..."

Su Huai hurriedly interrupted her, "Don’t get ahead of yourself, those abs aren’t yours, and neither am I."

Best to give a preemptive warning, daddy is just daddy, and I’m not about to start dating you.

As a result, Pei Shuyu’s reaction wasn’t anything like her later man-hating phase, she let out a series of infatuated, mischievous giggles.

"You don’t have to pursue me, I can chase after you... hehehe, if you really become that handsome, I’ll wear you down!"

Hehe, as long as you don’t beat me to death when you discover the truth, all will be fine.

Su Huai sneered and sent back a sweating emoji.

Flirting needs rhythm, sometimes you turn on the charm, sometimes you play weak and let her do the flirting.

As expected, Pei Shuyu got more excited and took another step forward, "Daddy, advance me some interest... Show me your abs now!"

"Farewell!"

Gou Huai said he’d withdraw and stopped paying attention to her.

That’s what it means to master the art of pulling away, strolling through a throng of flowers without a leaf sticking to you, so cool!

Then, in the following two days, Pei Shuyu was nagging him to see his abs... she had completely fallen for it.

Su Huai felt that a favorability of 95 must have been achieved, and 98 wasn’t far off, but to reach the peak of 100, perhaps a little more... skill was needed.

...

From the 17th to the 27th, the guild matters were finally sorted out.

Xingyu was officially registered, share distribution was completed, and the company’s legal person was changed to Mo Jian, replacing Su Huai with a 55% stake.

Pei Shuyu held a 30% stake, proffering a 10-year contract with a penalty of 50 million for breach.

Cheese was left with only 15% of the shares, but in less than ten days, he had poached six beautiful streamers from Jiangnan Guild, and as soon as the news spread, he instantly became the most coveted figure among streamers; an expansion frenzy was to come.

Going from being the sole boss to an employee, Cheese was still giggling every day.

Because Gou God was so incredible, he casually obtained the best cooperative treatment the platform could offer, and now he watched as he was about to pick up money by the bagful.

For every 100 bucks in revenue, the platform takes 30, and the ordinary streamer gets between 38 and 55, how much does Xingyu Guild earn?

The current 15% stake is genuinely more profitable than the previous 100%.

Cheese was invigorated, Pei Shuyu was full of ambition, and Su Huai didn’t need to worry at all; he was free again and could finally shift his focus back to school.

Seeing that the National Day holiday was approaching, there was a stir in the class, with many people inquiring—

"Class leader, are you going home for the holidays?"

I want to, but I can’t.

Only a month had passed since leaving home, having transformed from a laborer carrying cement on a construction site into a delicate young master, I doubt my own mother could handle it.

The winter vacation would be easier to manage, with longer time and more room for nonsense.

However, Su Huai didn’t confirm his plans, instead asking in return, "Why, do you have any arrangements?"

"Yeah."

Huang Mengting, who came to probe, asked eagerly, "It’s not fun being off on the holidays with nothing to do, so why don’t you organize something to take everyone out for some fun!"

It’s not impossible...

Su Huai was pondering when Gu Jiuyue turned her head and looked at him with puppy eyes.

The message was simple: Su Huai, you promised to take me out to play.

Hey, those begging eyes!

Su Huai didn’t agree right away, deciding to drag it out a little more to create some anticipation.

The things you get too easily lack the thrill of surprise, haven’t you learned that?

"Wait for me to think about it..."

But before he could drag things out for the desired effect, as soon as lunch break started, Chen Nuanhan blocked him at the classroom door.

"Old Su, are you going home for the holidays on the eleventh?"

Huh?!

Su Huai was taken aback.
