118: Isn't this as it should be?

Many fans and netizens also flocked to Lin Shufen's Weibo at this time to leave comments.

Lin Shufen, who was live streaming, noticed her phone vibrating non-stop. She stopped the alt account she was leveling for someone else, picked up her phone, and saw a screen full of messages tagging her.

Although similar situations had happened before, they usually only occurred when she was trending.

But the current situation left her a bit bewildered.

She silently opened her Weibo, looked at the messages mentioning her, and was speechless for a moment.

After a long while, Lin Shufen finally came to her senses and complained to her live stream fans, “If I had known there was such a membership service earlier, you wouldn't have called me a fool… This is so frustrating!” As she spoke, she furiously slammed the table, an impressive display of anger.

This confused the fans who were watching the commotion in the live stream.

But some fans who had come from Lin Shufen's Weibo understood what had happened and immediately started to egg her on.

“It's just a card, we won't call you a big fool anymore. How about we call you a little fool instead…?”

“Just arrived, feels like someone is smashing things in front of me.”

“This aura, I'm impressed!”

“P2W! Spend five hundred thousand to have Ouyou serve you!”

“That's right, spend five hundred thousand, the game company will listen to you, you're their big sister!”

“If I were you, I'd first spend five hundred thousand, then casually send Celia a fire card, and then have them help me get it back.”

“The person upstairs is truly a talent! Only you could come up with such an idea.”

Inside the Ouyou Game Company office.

It was already 12 PM on December 26th, which should have been quitting time.

However, all employees were called by Xu Lian for an impromptu meeting.

Everyone knew the reaction to the newly launched feature and understood why they were called for a meeting.

Because of this, no one felt pressured; instead, they were all very relaxed.

“President Xu.”

“President Xu…”

“President Xu…”

…

As soon as Xu Lian entered the conference room, several employees stood up to greet him.

“This major reform was indeed unexpected, and everyone here deserves credit,” he said after sitting down. “Sales for all games have surged, and we now have a chance to top the charts!”

Actually, he was initially worried about negative reviews and had mentally prepared for it, but the result was unexpectedly overwhelming positive feedback!

The revenue in just six hours even exceeded several times that of a typical day!

Xu Lian continued, “So I've decided…” He deliberately drew out his words, “Every employee will get a 10% raise!”

“Haha, thank you, President Xu, we can go out for a good meal tonight!” Chen Hang from the software development department shouted excitedly.

Of course, everyone else also had smiles on their faces, just not as excited as Chen Hang.

Regardless, these were the fruits of their hard work.

Seeing the smiles on everyone's faces, Xu Lian also started to smile.

“You all go eat and rest, but don't forget to work hard. The company is clear about rewards and punishments,” Xu Lian reminded them.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

“President Xu, aren't you going to eat?” After everyone had left, Lin Weixin asked Xu Lian, who was sitting at the head of the table.

Clearly, Xu Lian's mind was entirely focused on the latest updated data at this moment.

He shook his head and replied, “You go first, I still have some things to handle.” Lin Weixin wanted to say something more, but seeing that Xu Lian had already started to get busy, she quietly left the conference room, sighing as she cast a reluctant glance before she left.

The next morning.

“We've shot up!”

“I didn't expect us to surpass Greenfield Game Company in game revenue and become number one!”

“Isn't that to be expected? What's the big deal?”

“Exactly, every game from our company is a classic, and the newly launched xin yue vip member is a fan magnet!”

“I really hope President Xu holds another meeting and gives everyone another raise.”

“You're dreaming, didn't we just get a raise yesterday? There's a limit to greed!”

…

During work, everyone was discussing this matter heatedly.

Looking at the constantly rising data, everyone felt quite proud.

After all, they all contributed to it!

Just as everyone was discussing animatedly, Xu Lian walked in from outside with his breakfast. Seeing his colleagues gathered together, he couldn't help but smile.

“As long as everyone works hard, salaries will definitely skyrocket.”

Xu Lian had clearly heard their conversation and said something encouraging.

After all, people don't work just for fun; everyone has their own needs.

The colleague who had just been talking about a raise couldn't help but scratch his head and awkwardly smiled at Xu Lian: “President Xu.”

Xu Lian nodded and returned to his office.

… … …

A few days passed quickly, and the initial craze gradually stabilized.

“Alas, the top spot still isn't secure.”

Xu Lian looked at the data in front of him, shook his head helplessly, and chuckled at himself.

He initially thought that breaking through Greenfield Game Company's position would allow them to surpass them, but the reality was not so.

However, Xu Lian then thought, Greenfield Game Company is the industry leader after all, how could they be surpassed all at once?

You still have to eat your food one bite at a time, otherwise, you might choke.

If anyone knew Xu Lian's current thoughts, they might be so angry they'd spit blood.

Although they couldn't solidify their first-place position, they had firmly established themselves in second place.

This was already something others could only dream of.

And now?

Xu Lian still looked unsatisfied, which truly made people sigh, comparing oneself to others is infuriating.

After breakfast, Xu Lian turned on his computer.

He hadn't had a good rest these past few days, and now that everything had settled down, he felt he could relax a bit.

Immediately, he opened crossfire.

Before opening the game, he also logged into Douyu Live, clicked into the crossfire section, and found the most popular Streamer, Zhao Yuntu.

“Brothers, I'm here! Haven't played the game in days, my hands are itching!”

Zhao Yuntu had just started his stream and first apologized to his fans: “My wife insisted I go back to her parents' house with her a few days ago, and as soon as I got back today, I immediately went online!”

“Let me tell you, I've been studying Xu Lian Dalao's quick-scoping technique for days, and I've finally figured out the essence. Now I'll show you all!”

Because he went home to visit relatives, Zhao Yuntu had stopped streaming for a few days, which somewhat affected his newly acquired status as the top Streamer in the crossfire section.

Now that he was back, he had to show some new tricks, otherwise, he would lose many fans and traffic.

So, he held nothing back and directly demonstrated the new skill he had just learned—quick-scoping.

“Brother Zhao, you're finally back, we really missed you!”
