If the confession fails, then pursue her best friend

In the single-family villa of Xinghewan,
After breakfast.

Seeing Li Yuan answering the phone with a look of surprise, Zhong Tingyue joked in surprise:
"Senior, what good thing happened to you that makes you so excited?"

Li Yuan chuckled: "Our company has completed the development of a game and is preparing to enter the internal testing phase. I am a little excited."

Xia Zhijin was quietly eating breakfast on the side.

After hearing Li Yuan's answer, he immediately thought of the game that he had invested so much money in, and asked in surprise:
“Has “Honor of Kings” been successfully developed?”

Li Yuan nodded: "Well, it has basically been successful. After the internal test, we can fix some bugs that may exist in the game and then officially launch it."

Bai Weixi drank a mouthful of millet porridge, stared at Li Yuan and Xia Zhijin curiously, and asked:
"Brother, the game you are talking about, is it an online game?"

Li Yuan looked at Zhong Tingyue and Bai Weixi, who looked slightly puzzled, and explained with a smile:

"Some time ago, I told you about it and took you to see it. The game developed by the Baiyujing Studio in the company is called "Honor of Kings". It is a large-scale multiplayer competitive online game on PCs, targeting young college students."

"I have spent the most time, manpower, financial resources and energy on this game."

“Now, we can finally see the results.”

Li Yuan's voice was very excited.

I have already imagined in my mind that after the launch of this "Honor of Kings", it will dominate the market and make a fortune every day.
This game is an important condition for him to achieve financial freedom and complete his own capital leap.

Seeing Li Yuan's excited expression, Zhong Tingyue asked in surprise:

"Senior, is this game really that awesome? This is the first time I see you so excited!"

The epoch-making game "Honor of Kings" is the project that Li Yuan values ​​the most.

Now, he is finally seeing the dawn of victory and is about to start internal testing. How can he not be excited?

"Yes, it is very important, and the money-making potential is limitless. According to my estimation, if this game is completed, its value will be at least in the tens of billions, which is of epoch-making significance."

"Hehe, with this game, we can just lie back and enjoy the rest of our lives."

Hearing Li Yuan's answer, Zhong Tingyue and Bai Weixi chuckled. They were very curious about what kind of game this was that Li Yuan described it as so exaggerated.

"Brother, can we go and take a look together?"

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Of course, this is our family's business."

When the three girls heard Li Yuan say the word "family", they looked at each other at the same time and smiled faintly.

Recently, because the few of them have been in contact more often, their relationship has gradually improved.

Besides living together, there is another reason.

That is, they all believed in Li Yuan's story about his previous life.

I believe Li Yuan's feelings for the three of them.
"Zhijin, Xiaobai, Xiaoyue, let's go to the company together."

Li Yuan immediately drove Xia Zhijin and three other girls to Datang Technology Company.

In the spacious conference room,
Li Yuan, Xia Zhijin, Zhong Tingyue, Bai Weixi, Hu Zhenqiang, Xie Zheng, Lin Yuwei, Tan Zhonghua and other company backbones,
There were also more than a dozen operators gathered together to prepare to demonstrate the game "Honor of Kings".

As the person in charge of the "Bai Yujing" studio,

Hu Zhenqiang was also very excited at this moment, and came to report to Li Yuan and the three boss ladies with great confidence.

"Mr. Li, everyone, all the structures of the game "Honor of Kings" have been completed. Please allow me to show you."

Li Yuan was also very much looking forward to it.

He has been busy with the "Milk Tea Sister" selection event, setting up a film and television entertainment company, recording an album, and celebrating Xia Zhijin's birthday.
I have never seen this version of "Honor of Kings".

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. Hu, please give us a detailed introduction."

Hu Zhenqiang clapped his hands and immediately asked other operators to turn on the computers and carry out the actual operation.
When I opened the game, a familiar and passionate voice sounded:

"Welcome to the Glory of the King"

Li Yuan looked at the picture quality of the game screen. It was definitely not comparable to the mobile game before his rebirth, but among the games of this era, it was also one of the top games.

"Mr. Li, this is our startup animation, which is also adapted based on the background story you wrote. It mainly tells the background world of "Honor of Kings"."

"The ancient great world was shattered into world fragments of different latitudes. Races from different fragmented worlds, under the influence of the supreme rules, gathered in a special area called 'King's Canyon' and started fighting, competing for different titles, driving the world to advance. The ultimate goal is to reunite the different world fragments and complete the unification of the ancient world."

Hu Zhenqiang talked about the three-minute startup animation and roughly recounted the background story of "Honor of Kings".
Li Yuan nodded repeatedly after listening to it. The game background of "Honor of Kings" in the original time and space was very good.

Especially the game background animation, which is very nice.

Many players joked that "making games with feet and making animations with heart".
As an online writer, Li Yuan read so many online novels in his previous life. Based on the original background story of "Honor of Kings" and combined with the setting of the ancient world of Chinese mythology, he personally wrote a rough background story.

Including various races, such as the human race, which has the largest population, as well as the legendary elves, demons, gods, machines, monsters, etc.
Different races are all creatures from the original primitive world. After the primitive world was broken, they fell into different time dimensions.
then,

Some heroes from these races are summoned to the Canyon of Kings by real-life gamers, commonly known as "summoners", to fight in the game.
Summoners can continuously summon various heroes to fight, to improve the abilities and titles of each "hero", to repair and stabilize the continental fragments of their own world.
The background setting of the story is very grand. This is also Li Yuan’s preparation for the subsequent development of the game, which can continuously enhance the attractiveness of the game.

The original version of "Honor of Kings" has gradually gone downhill after experiencing nearly seven or eight years of popularity.

One of the main reasons is that the playability of the game is not that strong.

Many game players stopped playing after getting the "King's Badge".

The game he designed is based on the world background story, just like a trilogy of online novels. Every time an achievement is achieved, the version can be continuously upgraded to maintain the long-term enthusiasm of gamers for the game.
Hu Zhenqiang continued to introduce: "Our new hero is the Monkey King Sun Wukong, a figure that is familiar to all Chinese people."

"These are some of the summoner's built-in skills. All heroes have three skills. According to the different characteristics and ethnic backgrounds of the heroes, they are divided into assassins, mages, warriors, shooters, and assistants."

“In addition to the skills that the hero has, there are also some special skills that can be selected, such as flash, rage, punishment, purification, sprint, etc.”

Because this "Honor of Kings" game is completely based on Li Yuan's guidance, many hero equipment, skills, etc. are no different from the original "Honor of Kings".
It doesn't feel awkward looking at it this way.

"Mr. Li, we have designed a total of 40 heroes, with 8 heroes in each category. Most of the names of the current heroes are designed based on our Chinese mythology and historical figures."

After Hu Zhenqiang introduced the game, heroes, skills, and equipment, he began to introduce the "King's Canyon" and the various modes of the game. The game modes are mainly ordinary 5V5, and the most important ranking competition, which is divided into human-computer mode and competitive mode.
Li Yuan saw that it was about 70% similar to the "King's Canyon" in his memory, but a little bigger and more like the map of "League of Legends".

After all, this is not a mobile game, and the computer operation page is much larger than that of the mobile game.

After Hu Zhenqiang finished his introduction, the live game demonstration began.

Content of the demo, including game modes.

By the time the various modes were demonstrated, more than two hours had passed and Li Yuan was quite satisfied.

The game made by Baiyujing Studio basically achieved all the goals that Li Yuan had when he was preparing to develop the game. Even the hero images are exceptionally beautiful, with the main theme being appearance first.
The game has been developed and the most important thing is the game's internal testing and subsequent launch.

Li Yuan asked: "Boss Hu, Boss Lin, Boss Xie, how is the internal testing plan you came up with?"

Hu Zhenqiang said: "Mr. Li, our initial plan is to release 1000 internal test quotas, publish an announcement on Zhihu.com, and invite some well-known game players to conduct internal testing of the game to test the damage, operation, game experience, etc. of various heroes." "Mr. Li, please look at the screen. This is the internal testing plan we prepared."

Li Yuan looked at the internal test plan on the screen carefully and felt quite satisfied.

"Overall, it's OK. We will prepare for the internal test according to this plan. We need to collect user feedback in detail and make some targeted optimizations. One thing to pay special attention to is that if there are heroes that exceed the standard and destroy the balance of the game, their attributes must be adjusted in a timely manner."

Hu Zhenqiang quickly took notes. No one present had any doubts about Li Yuan's talent.

Even though they have been engaged in the game design industry for many years, they dare not put on airs in front of Li Yuan, a "super genius".

Because Li Yuan had already completely convinced them with his vision and talent.

After making arrangements for the game's internal testing, Li Yuan looked at the important backbones of the company present, such as Hu Zhenqiang, Xie Zheng and other core personnel in game development, whose mental and physical conditions were not very good.

Such an epoch-making large-scale game was able to be successfully developed from project initiation to successful development in just over four months. These game developers put in tremendous effort and hard work.

As a conscientious "capitalist", Li Yuan would never do such unscrupulous behavior as "wanting the horse to run without giving it grass to eat".

For workers, the most important reward is material reward.

Li Yuan coughed, looked at the backbone of the company in front of him, and solemnly announced an incentive measure.

"Our company's first game, Honor of Kings, has finally been developed thanks to everyone's hard work. I can see how hard everyone has worked."

"Now, I announce that the company is going to give out 200 million in cash rewards to all the R&D personnel involved in King of Glory."

As soon as Li Yuan opened his mouth, the entire conference room suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Even the sound of breathing became a little hurried.
A cash reward of 200 is a huge sum, and each of them can get tens of thousands.

Moreover, this is the reward for completing the game development.

When the game is really launched, if the revenue is good, given Li Yuan’s generosity, he will definitely give more rewards.

"Thank you, Mr. Li!"

"Mr. Li is so kind to us."

"Mr. Li's generosity is very rare in the entire industry."

After a moment of silence, the entire conference room began to engage in lively discussions again.

Li Yuan smiled and said, "You guys count the names, divide them according to everyone's contributions in the game, and then hand the reward list to Director Xia."

The financial director of Datang Technology is Xia Zhijin, who is mainly responsible for reviewing the company's finances.

After arranging the game testing and personnel rewards.

Li Yuan brought his three girlfriends to his office to experience the game.

Li Yuan also felt a little itchy about playing the game "Honor of Kings" and wanted to try it himself.

Bai Weixi stared at some of the female heroes who were wearing revealing clothes shyly, and whispered to Li Yuan:

"Brother, isn't this hero's design too revealing?"

Li Yuan laughed and said disapprovingly:
"Xiaobai, you don't understand this, right? The exposure of this hero design can arouse discussion among players and maintain the popularity. Besides, this is the trend on the Internet now. There are many games that are more exposed than this. If it really causes bad public opinion, we can just make corrections."

"Oh! So that's it? I don't quite understand!" Bai Weixi nodded her head in sudden realization and playfully stuck out her tongue at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan looked at the three girls, Bai Weixi, Zhong Tingyue, and Xia Zhijin, and said with a smile, "Do you want to try this game?"

None of the three girls had ever played the game. When they heard Li Yuan's question, they all looked eager to try it out. They answered in unison:

"Okay, okay, senior, then you teach us."

"Okay, brother!"

"OK!"

Li Yuan laughed and began to teach them how to operate it step by step.

Compared with mobile games on smartphones, the operation of this large-scale PC game is still much more difficult, mainly because the control direction is not that easy.
However, the three girls all had high IQs. After Li Yuan demonstrated it himself, they basically understood the basic operations of the game.
in the game,
Zhong Tingyue was controlling "Baby Daji". After being beaten to death by Li Yuan with the monkey's three sticks, she stared at Li Yuan with an aggrieved look and snorted:

"Senior, why do you keep trying to kill me and why are you hiding in the bushes?"

Seeing Zhong Tingyue looking aggrieved, Li Yuan found it very interesting and teased:
"Little Moon, the monkey is an assassin. What is an assassin? It means killing people without being seen. You have to hide in the bushes."

Bai Weixi, who was controlling the assistant "Zhuang Zhou", asked curiously:
"Brother, isn't Zhuang Zhou one of the founders of the Taoist school? Taoists seem to know magic, so why is Zhuang Zhou not a magician but an assistant?"

Li Yuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

I thought to myself, how would I know this? I am guided by my memories from my past life, it is impossible for me to cover everything.

Li Yuan laughed and explained, "Haha, although he is a support, Zhuang Zhou's skills are all magic damage, and he can also be used as a mage. The positioning of the hero is just positioning, and different play styles can be used, just like Daji can also be used as an assassin to play in the wild, hiding in the bush to catch people."

"Oh! Oh!" Bai Weixi nodded, believing in Li Yuan's words without a doubt.

2009 year 1 month 15 day,
Zhihu.com published an official announcement on its front page.

Li Yuan's Datang Technology Company, which produces a groundbreaking competitive game called "Honor of Kings", is officially recruiting professional gamers to conduct internal testing of the game.
