91: What a cute kitten!

Currently, only Qin Feixu, Chen Li, and Liu Kan in the company use their private cars for commuting.

Everyone else, including himself, the boss, usually takes a taxi.

Additionally, due to the anti-peep film on the car, the interior cannot be seen from the outside.

The security guard would naturally come out to check this unfamiliar car model.

"Hey, it's President Xu."

After recognizing Xu Lian in the car, the guard immediately adopted a respectful expression.

The company had given them a raise recently, so these employees were naturally grateful to him.

"Yes, a new car."

Xu Lian lowered the window, reminding him to remember the license plate number.

"Understood, you may enter."

He responded with a smile and immediately made way for the leader.

After entering the company building, Xu Lian, as usual, checked the operation reports of the two products, then returned to his office and logged into the Douyu Livestream client to see how the minecraft promotion arranged by President Chen was progressing.

He found the relevant category and indeed saw a new project added: "minecraft."

The search results only showed over two hundred Streamers playing this game.

The popularity in the livestream rooms was average, with only a few thousand to ten thousand people online.

However, he wasn't anxious about this, as it was a buy-to-play product, not a free-to-play model.

Initial development naturally required various promotions to attract attention for future growth.

After browsing for a while, he finally chose to click on a room belonging to a good-looking female player...

...

As one of the fans of the Ouyou Entertainment Group, Zhao Liuqing particularly loved these two game products.

Especially the 2D pixel-style side-scrolling action RPG "DNF," which was her absolute favorite; she logged in every day to take care of her daughter character.

After graduation, she couldn't find an ideal job for a while, so she could only pass the time at home leveling up, during which she unexpectedly discovered that many people were earning substantial income through livestreaming.

Inspired, she signed on as a full-time Streamer, focusing on "DNF"; unfortunately, the competition was too fierce at the time, and she didn't gain many viewers, apart from a small number of people who focused on appearance.

What was worse, due to contract restrictions, she had to complete a fixed daily broadcast duration, or she would face compensation issues.

Fortunately, she had now received a notice to introduce the latest work, "MC," a title she had been following and found quite creative, which was why she was willing to pre-order and experience it.

"Wow, does such a magical thing really exist? What's its name? 'MC'?

"The friend upstairs said it's Ouyou's new game, but I'm not sure if it's fun or not; I'm still hesitating."

"+1. I'm still a student and think the price is a bit high. I'm planning to watch the demo video before considering buying it."

"You guys are really behind the times, aren't you? Don't you know you can apply for a free trial on the official website? You can totally decide for yourselves if this game is worth buying."

"Anyway, I've already bought it. This game is as good as the promotional video showed. I feel like a creator in this game!"

"The person upstairs must be playing Creative Mode, right? Why don't you try Survival Mode?"

As soon as Zhao Liuqing went online and started livestreaming, hundreds of viewers poured into her room.

The Douyu Platform itself has a huge user base, plus everyone was full of anticipation for "minecraft."

But most players were concerned whether this game was worth 500 yuan.

So they all came to the livestream room to see if "minecraft" was really worth their money.

"Welcome everyone to my livestream room! If you like it, remember to follow me!"

"Today, Ouyou Communication's new game, 'minecraft,' is finally in open beta. Let's see what this game is all about."

Zhao Liuqing said, then clicked on the downloaded grass block icon, logged in with her Ouyou account, and officially started the game.

After logging in, the screen displayed two completely different graphics options: one was 16K high-definition graphics, and the other was pixel-style low-definition graphics.

"Then I'll try the high-definition graphics first."

She chose the 16K ultra-clear mode and entered Survival Mode.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the high-quality graphics appeared.

Her character appeared in an area connecting a forest and a beach.

"Wow! This is too realistic!"

The sea breeze blew through her headphones, and looking at the clouds in the sky, the lush forest, the vast ocean, and the continuous beach, all of it gave her a strong sense of immersion.

She could even see the small white foam rolling as the waves crashed, a scene that seemed to genuinely exist on the screen.

"Hey! How can the graphics be so excellent? This is the company that supposedly started out making 'pixelated' games, right?

"Don't listen to nonsense. crossfire's graphics are also very good, don't you remember?"

"Hurry and dig sand to build a castle! Other Streamers are doing that."

"Streamer, hurry up and look around. Good graphics aren't rare; we need to know what this game is really like."

The people in the livestream room were also attracted by the exquisite graphics and encouraged her to look around.

"I remember now, this game should also allow you to chop trees and dig dirt."

She suddenly realized this, tried pressing the mouse, and her character's hand moved. In a short while, she collected a block of dirt.

"So that's how you collect things."

After speaking, she tried approaching an oak tree and started chopping it, quickly obtaining a piece of wood.

"Ha, I get it, I get it."

Finding the gameplay quite easy to grasp, she decided to first explore the forest for a bit, then continue collecting materials needed to build a house.

Just then, a small orange-striped ocelot peeked its head out from a tree.

With the clarity off the charts, the cat looked extraordinarily lifelike, its fluffy fur gently swaying with its body, and its tail wagging vividly.

"Wow! What a cute little cat!"

Zhao Liuqing was overjoyed and tried waving her arm in a friendly gesture, but the little creature merely glanced at her and ran off.

A few more steps forward led to the edge of a cliff, where a vast grassland spread out below.

The grassland was covered with grazing cattle, sheep, and pigs, giving it quite a pastoral feel.

"The scenery here is also amazing."

Looking at the vast landscape, she couldn't help but want to shout to test for an echo.

Then she descended from the clifftop and walked into a patch of green, facing a pink piglet.

The pig raised its head and looked at her curiously.

"Pfft, it looks so funny."

She playfully walked forward and punched it, and the latter immediately squealed and quickly ran away.

"Haha, this is so much fun!"

She chased the piglet until she killed it.

Immediately, a floating item appeared on the ground—it was a piece of uncooked pork, which could be used to satisfy hunger or replenish stamina.

Seeing such a drop, she suddenly realized: "So this is edible resource."
