Chapter 22: Starting Of A New School Term

Chapter 22 Starting Of A New School Term

When the summer holiday ended, some of the kids in the village needed to leave. The parents of those kids were busy working in the city during the summer holiday. They didn’t have time to look after kids. Therefore, some kids were sent to the village to stay with their grandparents. Now that the new school term would start soon, of course, they needed to go back to the city.

Having played in the village for two months, it was natural for the kids to feel sad when leaving their best buddies. But what made those parents surprised was that apart from those best buddies, the person that those kids were loath to leave the most was a strange young man.

This strange man was Zhou Yu.

With their kids’ help to lead the way, almost all the parents went to Zhou Yu’s house once. And only until then did they realize why their kids loved this young man so much.

With a full house of wooden toys, it was too tempting for their kids. There were wooden weapons, which were the toys that boys liked the most, and there were also small houses and tiny furniture, which were the toys that girls loved the most, especially that big aircraft carrier, it would immediately attract everyone’s attention, once they got into the house.

The interview that the journalist did in the village had already been released on the TV, some of the adults had already seen it. But when they saw the real object, they were still shocked.

That was a big scale model!

There were also some military enthusiast parents as well. When they saw it, they immediately wanted to buy it. But all of them were refused by Zhou Yu.

After all, that thing was personally made by himself, it was totally different than other toys. Besides, he had already promised the school teacher in the village, that once the new term started, he would lend those model to the school, so they could open a small military exhibition for kids, in order to improve their military knowledge, and this aircraft carrier was the necessary display model.

The aircraft carrier could not be sold, but they could still buy those small toys. Every kid that was going to leave the village would select some toys before they leave, and there were some adults, who could not resist the temptation, also bought a few of them. Many of them planned to give them to their friends’ kids as gifts.

At the end, when most of the kids left the village, almost all the toys in Zhou Yu’s house were sold. Calculating the money he had made from those parents, it was around several thousand Chinese Yuan.

Seeing what Zhou Yu did, Zhou Shuyu sighed constantly. After the interview was released on the TV, more and more people wanted to buy those small scale models. Just looked at how those parents react when they saw the toys, anyone could imagine how popular those scale models were. However, no matter what kind of methods she used on this lazy otaku, he only made a few in several days. He clearly did not want to make money. It was so frustrating.

Seeing many toys were sold, Zhou Hao and those kids who were studying in the primary school in the village were very sad. If it were not for the fact that Zhou Yu had promised them that he would make new toys for them, they would have probably cried out in Zhou Yu’s yard already.

Regardlessly how naughty those kids were, it was those kids, who kept Zhou Yu’s yard clean, so making some toys for them and making them happy was something Zhou Yu’s should do.

………………………

On I’m Crazy Over Otaku, which was the website that Zhou Yu uploaded his game, the myth of Luhua village suddenly became extremely popular overnight. The main reason was that He Yuanyuan and Zhou Shuyu those two quite popular newbie directors had advertised his game for him. After all, all the movie’s CG and BGM were taken from the game.

After the information was released on the internet, the game that only had one or two downloads suddenly increased to several thousand downloads. There were even more comments in the comments section.

“This is an epic game! ”

“Holy shit, this kind of game could not even receive a contract? Are all the admins blind?”

“It is great that they are blind, otherwise, we have to pay for this game. It is much better for us this way.”

“The creator has another game, called farming simulation, that one is also epic.”

“Holy shit, what he said is real, you will regret it if you did not download it.”

With all kinds of positive comments, the number of downloads was increasing rapidly. Soon, the game was even listed on the most downloaded game section. However, at the same time, many more people began to question why the game did not receive any contracts from the website.

Because when entering the game, many people discovered that although its overall quality could not be compared to those big title games, compared to many other games that cost money to play, it was much better.

It could be even considered as a top tier domestic game. But how come this type of game was released on the free game section?

Checking on the releasing date, it was roughly a half month ago, and the farming simulation was almost a month. During one month period, both games were not advertised by the site and also did not receive any recommendations. If it weren’t for the myth of Luhua village this movie, perhaps that not many people would know their existence.

I’m crazy over otaku claimed themselves to be the paradise of indie game developers. They said that they would provide the most convenient channel for good indie games to become famous. However, even this kind of high-quality game could not get a recommendation, it was truly bizarre.

Therefore all kinds of rumors, such as: “internal trade” “dirty business deal behind the scene” “pay me or you will not be listed”  and “the site has rotten” etc… began to spread on the site, turning this small incident to a small reputation crisis of the site.

In fact, the administration department of the site really did nothing wrong. The first game, which was the farming simulation, was still in the reviewing process. However, before the game was fully reviewed, the developer of the game decided to release the game for free. The second game, which was the myth of Luhua village was even more strange. Before they even had time to review the game, the developer of the game already released the game for free. So it automatically disappeared from the list of games that were waiting to be reviewed. Therefore, no one had actually noticed the second game.

After all, the site was actually quite a big site, many indie games were uploaded to the site every day, it was understandable that the reviewing process would not be fast. Of course, if they were well-known game developers or game companies, they would have a fast and premium channel. However this “Brothel Taoist” was a new developer, of course, he must go through all the necessary procedures.

But no one had expected that those two games, which had been ignored by many people, would suddenly become popular.

However, it was too late to charge people for the game now. After all, the game had already been downloaded by many people before it was injected with the anti-piracy key. So even if they started to charge people, there would be countless free copies circulating on the internet.

The only remedy for the current situation was to immediately advertise the game using some of the available resources and set “Brothel Taoist” as a VIP user, then all his release would automatically go to the fast premium channel.

However, Zhou Yu did not know anything about what they did. With full of hope, he was currently waiting for the game company to produce the tier three game.

It was obvious that the game company would not be able to level up anytime soon, so the highest tier game that it was able to produce was the tier three game. If its quality still could not reach a level that he could sell it, then he did not plan to release any more games before he upgraded the company.

Moreover, there was also another problem. It was the mood indicator.

After making three games, the soldier development team’s mood point was reduced to 20 points, if he wanted to make more games, those soldiers would definitely go on a strike. In terms of the other two teams, the optimistic and peaceful property management team only left with 42 points, and because the honorable penguin operation team had not actually started work yet, their mood points were still at 110 points

Therefore, he must build a building that was able to restore employees’ mood points. Otherwise, he would not be able to create any new games.

Hot spring hotel: 300 Moe Coins, could be used once a day, restore 10 mood points.

Travel agency: 500 Moe Coins, could be used once in two days, restore 30 points.

Large theme park: 1000 Moe Coins, could be used once a day, restore 20 points.

From the perspective of efficiency, the large theme park was the best, but it was too expensive. So he could only choose the second best option – Travel Agency. Anyway, even if he wanted them to work, he did not have enough programming Ape cards, so why not spend those days to restore those employee’s mood points.
