121: Chapter 121 The Disguise is About to Be Exposed! CEO Su is Stunned: You're the Author of Minecraft?!

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the festive atmosphere had not yet fully dissipated, and the alarm clock for work had ruthlessly torn apart the holiday dreams of countless people.

Post-holiday syndrome permeated every corner of the city.

But for netizens who are always chasing hot topics, this New Year was not only not boring, but actually more exciting and thrilling than any New Year blockbuster.

Someone made a year-end summary online, and on the list of hot topics, only one name lingered from beginning to end.

Guanghui Technology.

Guanghui Technology.

Still Guanghui Technology.

Even the annual New Year blockbusters "Detective Chinatown 2" and "Operation Red Sea" had to step aside.

"On New Year's Eve, Tianqiong Interactive Entertainment framed the Guanghui Robot for an explosion, but ended up sending their own CEO to jail. The fastest reversal of the year, hilarious."

"On the first day of the New Year, President Lu livestreamed to sell the new model dorami. Looks are justice!"

"On the fourth day of the New Year, the situation changed dramatically. The United States and its followers issued a 'Special Sanctions Order'. The whole internet was filled with indignation; the darkest moment for domestic technology had arrived."

"However, just one night later! The video of Guanghui Technology's 'second world' was leaked, and the official account threw out the public beta poster for the Virtual Helmet! Is this a dark moment? This is clearly a table-flipping moment!"

Netizens jokingly suggested that the United States should be awarded the "Best Assist Award".

Without their extreme pressure, who would have thought that Guanghui Technology was actually holding back such a nuclear-level trump card at home?

Some even said that this was no less significant than Li Hongzhang's visit to the United States.

Of course, this frenzy was mainly concentrated domestically.

On foreign social media, it was a completely different scene, filled with skepticism, mockery, and disdain.

This was also normal; when Xiao Dou AI was released, foreign countries didn't believe it either.

It wasn't until the Guanghui Mobile flagship stores opened in Washington and New York, and many people bought them, that they were completely convinced.

...

Guanghui Technology, CEO's office.

Chen Shuyu sat on the leather sofa, her straight long legs crossed, scrolling through a tablet in her hand, laughing until her shoulders shook.

"Qingxue, look at these Indians, they say our rescue video was synthesized in post-production."

"And they say they are the world's number one computing powerhouse, and we only know how to Photoshop."

Secretary Wang Qiuge also couldn't help but lean over, pointing at those outrageous comments on foreign websites, her expression extremely vivid.

"President Chen, that's not even the worst part. The neighboring Korea says Doraemon is their cultural heritage and is preparing to apply for world heritage status."

"And then?" Su Qingxue picked up her coffee, a faint smile on her lips.

"As a result, they were sent a lawyer's letter by the copyright holder of Doraemon in Japan, Fujimoto Masami's inheritance team, accusing them of defamation. Now the foreign internet is laughing like crazy."

The office was filled with a light atmosphere.

Lu Li sat in a separate sofa with his legs spread wide, slowly peeling an orange, seemingly oblivious to the outside turmoil, looking relaxed and at ease.

Today was the first day back to work after the holiday. As the CEO of Guanghui Group, Su Qingxue had just finished the routine group meeting in the morning.

And Lu Li, his identity had also quietly changed.

He now held 40% of the shares of Guanghui Technology transferred by Su Qingxue, officially promoting from a "kept man" to a bona fide major shareholder of Guanghui Technology.

As for the shares in the hands of Su Qingxue's mother, when they visited her parents' home on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, her mother-in-law had already voluntarily returned them to Su Qingxue.

Perhaps Elder Su's warnings had worked, or perhaps she was completely convinced by the heaven-defying means Lu Li had shown during this period, but the relationship between mother and daughter had eased a lot.

Lu Li didn't care about this; lying flat was great, but occasionally being rolled eyes at was indeed a bit annoying.

As for the new company formed by the merger of Su's Machinery and Guanghui Intelligent Robot: Guanghui Intelligent Robot Company, Elder Su's shares were diluted to 15%. Lu Li held the majority, but he only wanted to keep 5% for himself and give the rest to Su Qingxue.

He didn't care about these things; he completely trusted his wife.

But Su Qingxue insisted on this, in her words: "This is the foundation for you to stand tall outside."

Therefore, in that Robot Company, Lu Li also had 40% of the shares, while Su Qingxue only took 35%.

Only that game studio named "Genesis" was 100% owned by Lu Li, but he didn't tell anyone about this, and full ownership was normal.

He treated all the money earned from games as pocket money.

Of course, that Virtual Helmet company that was about to shock the world hadn't even been named yet.

Chatting and chatting, the topic naturally turned to the naming of the new company.

"How about calling it 'Illusion World'?"

"Too cheesy."

"Then how about 'Oasis'?"

"Feels like a real estate company."

Su Qingxue looked at Lu Li's indifferent appearance, suddenly a thought occurred to her, her beautiful eyes darting around.

"How about... we each take one character from our names."

This proposal made the air in the office a bit sweeter.

Lu Li's hand peeling the orange paused, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

The group meeting ended, the heads of various branches left one after another, and the massive Guanghui Technology officially entered a state of high-speed operation.

Lu Li stretched, went back to the small bed in the inner room of his office, intending to continue his "lying flat career".

This inner room was specially made by a construction team during the New Year.

Sometimes, Su Qingxue could also come in for a nap.

Just as he lay on that small bed with Su Qingxue's faint fragrance, the door was pushed open.

Su Qingxue walked in, holding a document in her hand, with a trace of confusion on her cold and pretty face.

"Husband, I have a question I want to ask you."

"Hmm?" Lu Li responded lazily.

"Regarding the copyright of minecraft," Su Qingxue sat on the edge of the bed, her expression serious, "The Virtual Reality version we tested during the New Year counts as a major modification and commercial use of the original game. Logically, its copyright holder should have come knocking long ago, or even sent a lawyer's letter directly, either demanding huge compensation or seeking cooperation. But it's been several days, and there's been no movement from them."

She paused and continued: "I have already asked the legal department to prepare an acquisition plan, ready to negotiate with them at any time. I even asked Qin Ya, after all, last time for the mobile port of minecraft, it was she who negotiated as the agent for minecraft, but this time, she said she didn't know either, which is very strange."

Hearing this, Lu Li froze instantly.

He blinked, his mind buzzing.

Oh no!

He was so busy with the Virtual Helmet and dealing with the sanctions that he had completely forgotten this most basic thing!

During the New Year, Qin Ya had even mentioned it to him on WeChat, and he had forgotten about it too.

minecraft in this world was released by himself using the "Genesis" incompetent game studio, so where would any copyright holder come from?

He was the biggest copyright holder.

The change in his expression at this moment, no matter how subtle, could not escape Su Qingxue's eyes.

Su Qingxue's gaze sharpened, like a female detective who had discovered clues.

"Husband, do you... know something?"
