Chapter 156: Chapter 156 Today We Sell Games

Liu Lan inexplicably left just as mysteriously as she had arrived, leaving only Wu Mu with an indifferent expression and other guests with various looks on their faces.

Lu Yao undoubtedly looked utterly confused and still hadn’t figured out what was going on.

Wang Xiaotian’s expression turned a bit strange, as he had guessed from the conversation between the two who Liu Lan might be.

What the hell was going on?

How could Wu Mu’s sugar daddy also be in Paris?

Had they bumped into each other by accident, or had they arranged a secret rendezvous?

But looking at Wu Mu’s demeanor, it didn’t seem like it.

Also, why did Wu Mu not appear as the boot-licking character that erupted in the chat, but instead came off as quite dominant?

Hmm, Wu Mu’s sugar daddy was quite beautiful in person. By the looks of it, they didn’t seem like the kind that enjoys freaky stuff... Lucky little pretty boy!

No doubt, everyone was a bit curious and eager to gossip about Wu Mu and his rumored sugar daddy.

However, Wu Mu naturally wouldn’t satisfy their curiosity; after casually laughing it off, he quickly changed the subject.

Afterward, no one else came to disturb them. Following farewells with bar owner Old Qiao and Wu Mu’s foreign true love fan, they returned to the residence of the TV crew.

...

Time soon reached the third day, and Lu Yao stepped down as Wu Mu took over as captain.

Then, Wang Xiaotian and the others received the new captain’s first timed text message order.

Wu Mu: "Assemble two hours late today, start at nine."

Yu Ke was puzzled, "Why are we assembling two hours late? Does Teacher Wu Mu have something to do?"

Wang Xiaotian and Lu Yao, who had some understanding of Wu Mu, had already roughly guessed the reason, even Zhang Haoran slightly curled his lips.

Looking at Yu Ke who was completely clueless, Lu Yao, with a concern-ridden sigh, explained to her, "Xiao Wu must be sleeping in."

Wang Xiaotian snorted coldly, keeping up with the effect of the program, he complained to the TV crew, "Director Lin, such an incompetent captain should be dismissed immediately! Sleeping in during filming, what kind of behavior is that?"

Zhang Haoran maintained his deadpan face but strongly agreed in his heart.

Yu Ke was clearly baffled.

Huh?

Delaying two hours just to sleep in?

That’s a bit too casual!

Isn’t he afraid of delaying the filming and upsetting the TV crew?

Lin Qingyue found it funny. Wu Mu certainly knew how to seize an opportunity, and while many of his actions seemed reckless, they were always within a certain limit.

If it were a normal situation, delaying the action time like this would definitely not be appropriate, but who would say anything since he’s the captain today, and the captain inherently has the right to organize the schedule.

When Wang Xiaotian and the others waited until nine o’clock, their stomachs growling out of sheer hunger and just as they were about to knock on the door, Wu Mu got up on time.

He was still half-asleep and yawning; while holding his water cup about to brush his teeth, it seemed to dawn on him.

He looked at Wang Xiaotian and commanded, "Xiaotian, go make breakfast."

Huh?

Was he trying to turn the tables?

But ordering him to cook?

Wang Xiaotian let out a begrudging sound, "Captain Wu seems to have forgotten his attitude the day before yesterday!"

Hadn’t no one helped when he called out then? And now he was delusional enough to expect help?

Wu Mu naturally hadn’t forgotten, but he had his ways.

He smirked and threw out a carrot, "Those who follow orders today, I’ll take you out for a big meal tonight. Those who don’t, can keep munching on noodles."

A big meal?

The word undoubtedly caught everyone’s attention.

To be honest, these days of filming were not tiring, and it was quite fun to go out and hit various spots, but the food was just too bad!

Not only having noodles every day but also enduring Lu Yao’s cooking that could poison a person!

Everyone had long been thinking of having a big meal to improve their diet.

But would Wu Mu really not stash the money away and instead take them to improve their meals?

Wu Mu waved his hand generously, "Don’t worry, I won’t cheat you guys. Tonight, you can pick any restaurant in Paris."

Really?

That confident?

Daring to claim they could choose any restaurant in Paris?

The truly high-end restaurants would cost more than ten thousand euros for a meal.

Skeptical, Wang Xiaotian asked, "How are you planning to make money today?"

"You’ll know once you finish cooking."

Despite his curiosity and the temptation of a lavish meal, Wang Xiaotian eventually succumbed and started cooking.

After breakfast, Wu Mu announced their plan for the day, "Today, we’re going to sell a game!"

Making money definitely meant focusing on one’s strengths, and his were undoubtedly game development and having a system cheat.

This announcement certainly made the other clerks pause for a moment.

Sell a game?

They knew that Wu Mu enjoyed playing games and even had the capability to write them.

But how exactly do you sell a game?

Had he created another game like Minesweeper?

Such a game could be released for free for casual play, but to actually sell it seemed outdated.

Who would buy it, let alone within a single day?

Indeed, Wu Mu had developed a new game. He took out his laptop, "This is a new game demo I’ve been working on for the last few days. It’s not a small game like Minesweeper, but a larger indie game, with a gameplay time of about thirty to forty hours."

Well, it wasn’t exactly developed in the last few days. He had started working on it at home with no intent to make money from it, just practicing his skills in his free time.

It was only because the program required making money that he worked overtime to rush out a simple demo.

But it wouldn’t be good to start selling or open pre-orders with just a simple demo.

Wu Mu thought of a compromise, "There’s a game expo in Paris these few days. We’ll go there and crowdfund the game development funds."

In the gaming industry, game companies sometimes publicly crowdfund development funds when lacking sufficient capital.

This type of crowdfunding was also a form of pre-sale where supporters would mostly receive the game itself after the project was successfully funded.

But this crowdfunding posed much more risk than pre-orders. Without genuine interest or confidence in a project, few people would put down money for it.

Although Wang Xiaotian and the others didn’t fully understand the crowdfunding model, they could tell.

No.

Aren’t you being a bit too fanciful?

They were speechless looking at Wu Mu.

They had thought Wu Mu had some clever plan, but this seemed like a spur-of-the-moment idea.

Why on earth was Wu Mu so confident he could actually raise money this way?

Did he expect to gain some kind of notoriety in the gaming circle too?

Wang Xiaotian and the rest started to suspect that Wu Mu was delusional and getting carried away.

Of course, Wu Mu wasn’t just indulging in fantasy. As a nobody in the gaming circle, he certainly wouldn’t be able to raise any funds under normal circumstances.

But he had a cheat.

All he had to do was use a System Performance Card later.

And...

"This game is fun!"

Wu Mu opened the game file on his computer to show to Wang Xiaotian and the others.

After a brief animation on the laptop screen, the name of the game popped up—Vampire Survivor.
