Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 109: Chapter 107: Sending Diapers to Lincoln!

Translator: 549690339

Time always flies when you’re busy.

Immersed in making “Assassins’ Alliance” with his employees, Lincoln barely noticed the time passing, and it was already time to leave work.

Everyone was extremely focused, wishing they could finish everything in one

Of course, Little Chun and the four beauticians were not among them. They played “Light Encounter” on portable consoles with great enthusiasm.

In the afternoon, Princess finished her class and joined them.

Last night, Camille Victoria saw the commotion online and naturally wanted to show up as soon as possible to stand with everyone.

However, she had a folk dance class in the morning. Her teacher was very famous in the folk dance field and also very strict. Classes could not be easily canceled, so she waited anxiously for the class to end.

As a result, she was caught daydreaming, and the elegant and beautiful teacher flicked her forehead, bringing tears to her eyes.

So, when logging into the virtual world, she felt a little aggrieved.

But as soon as she entered the world of “Assassins’ Alliance,” she saw Little Chun and the others playing the new game.

She instantly forgot her grievance, grabbed Little Chun’s arm, and pleaded while shaking it, “Sister Chun, I want to play too, I want to play too!”

Little Chun looked at Camille Victoria with doting eyes as if she were a little sister.

After spending the whole day with her yesterday, she had discovered that the private Princess was not chilly at all. Instead, she got along surprisingly well with Little Chun, and their relationship progressed rapidly.

Now, she didn’t hesitate to give her a portable console to play the game.

Lincoln had granted Little Chun access, allowing her to copy the “Light Encounter” console freely in the two areas of “Assassins’ Alliance” world and the “Virtual Cloud Dream Office.”

The only limitation was that the game couldn’t be downloaded or sent to other carriers.

Lincoln didn’t urge Little Chun to speed up the process since “Light Encounter” was ultimately a simple game with a small volume compared to “Assassins’ Alliance.”

With the foundation laid by Lincoln and Mavis, they just needed to

demonstrate their talents and create various attractive prizes.

What remained was refining and adjusting the virtual world’s map to make it more aesthetically harmonious and beautiful, and appealing to players.

They had plenty of time.

Thus, Little Chun didn’t rush to work but instead let everyone play the game thoroughly to find inspiration.

In contrast, the “Assassins’ Alliance” project team’s work was much more intense.

Everyone was putting in their full effort, trying to push the progress forward.

However, by 5:00 PM, Lincoln disregarded his employees’ requests to work overtime, kicked everyone offline, and urged them to leave work and do what they needed to do.

“Aren’t you tired? I am! How can you have so much energy every day? If you have so much energy, why don’t you find a boyfriend or girlfriend to fall in love with instead?”

Out of the 22 employees, 18 of them were single! It’s embarrassing!

Even though Lincoln strictly adhered to the working hours and didn’t allow employees to work overtime, the preparation for the closed beta of “Assassins’ Alliance” progressed rapidly.

The project’s completion rate was already high, and with his participation and Mavis’s secret support, everything was ready within two days.

In the meantime, Little Chun, Camille Victoria, and the several beauticians didn’t appear much in the “Assassins’ Alliance” world, instead gathering in the “Light Encounter” world.

Sometimes they would discuss how to adjust the plants, rocks, and trees in this world.

They worked hard to move the world from a cartoonish aesthetic to a more realistic one while maintaining a coordinated and unified aesthetic style that could be widely accepted by players and wouldn’t get old quickly.

This was not easy.

But they had a perfect reference— “Traveler of the Wind.”

“Traveler of the Wind,” after Lincoln and Mavis’s careful modification, had a perfect blend of “dreamlike” and “realistic” elements, allowing players to experience dreamy beauty without feeling out of place or fake due to excessive discrepancies.

As a sister game, moving towards the “Traveler of the Wind” aesthetic surely wouldn’t be wrong.

Various interesting special actions, toys, and costumes were coming out one by one. Little Chun temporarily didn’t plan to hire more people since they hadn’t encountered any bottlenecks yet.

Apart from that, when Lincoln was sending out the closed beta invitations, Mavis came over to remind him: the group of people they had blocked were making a fuss online again, demanding Cloud Dream announce the specific release timetable for “Traveler of the Wind” on multiple platforms.

Lincoln couldn’t be bothered with them. There’s no point in slapping those who have already been blacklisted again.

He shrugged it off and continued sending out invitations.

Lincoln also reappeared in the class chat group to let interested classmates participate in another draw for a chance to win a closed beta opportunity.

But as soon as he greeted them, he was met with a wave of flattering remarks, especially from a few male students.

They were all thanking Lincoln for giving them a back door to buy a Mirage Console when the last batch hit the shelves.

And the discount they got wasn’t market price, but a huge discount of 99% off! This discount sounded somewhat ridiculous, and they had indeed mocked it at the time.

But even with a small discount, it mattered who was offering it!

Cloud Dream Studio founder, virtual reality equipment creator, domestic leading scientific researcher, and game developer – Lincoln personally gave them this discount.

Was it about the money?

It was about face!

How many people in the country had this kind of prestige?

Talking about it would be enough for them to brag for a whole year!

Not only were the classmates who bought the Mirage Console involved.

More than ten classmates, under Lincoln’s arrangement, went to the experience store and enjoyed the charm of virtual reality games for a day.

So when Lincoln appeared again, he was undoubtedly welcomed with enthusiasm.

When the draw was held for the closed beta qualification, even though Lincoln had increased the quota to five people, there was still quite a bit of bargaining after the draw ended.

“Give me a try, and I’ll bring you a month’s worth of lunch!” “Me! Me! Me! I’ll bring you three months’ worth!”

“Half a semester!”

“Don’t roll like this, classmates! Have some differentiated competition!

Whoever gives up their turn for me this time, I’ll give you a back rub! Regardless of gender!”

“Where’s your shame? This is a class chat, you have to have some, right?”

“Seeing that we’re about to graduate in our final year with no hope of getting rid of singledom, are you planning to throw in the towel completely?”

After a fierce competition, only one female classmate gave up her closed beta qualification and received the “One-day date experience card” from the second-handsome male classmate.

As for who was the most handsome…

For such an obvious question, does it need to be said? Of course, it’s Boss Lin!

If you don’t believe it, go ask in the class chat.

In other places.

Camille Victoria once again joyfully jumped up and down in her live broadcast room, showing off the “Assassins’ Alliance” closed beta invitation she received to her audience.

The comments in the live streaming room once again flooded with: “In a leg!”

Super Tomato from Shen City immediately booked a flight to Xiajing City without a word on his mobile phone.

Streamer Yi, who was also in Xiajing City, received the invitation at the same time.

With a surprised face, he excitedly asked his audience in the live broadcast room if he should bring some local specialties to thank Lincoln for the invitation.

Hearing this, the audience in the live broadcast room instantly got excited.

They started madly posting comments, demanding Yi must give Lincoln the live broadcast room’s signature local product – “diapers.”

If he dared not send, they would unfollow!
