Chapter 329: 313 White Moonlight

"Jiang Chen, we can’t pull that ad, that’s my blood, sweat, and tears. I guarantee, just as long as that ad goes out, our pre-order numbers could double..."

In the dormitory.

Luo Peng, sticking close to Jiang Chen, appeared every bit the loyal and righteous remonstrator of ancient times, a modern-day Wei Zheng.

"Xiao Bai, Brother Shao, come and judge for yourselves, where is that ad vulgar?"

Exchanging a glance with Li Shao, Bai Zheli, adjusting his glasses, objectively appraised, "Brother Chen, I also think that video isn’t really that revealing."

Jiang Chen was of course not some old-fashioned pedant, not so rigid and conservative, but what could he do when the party involved was unwilling?

After a moment of silence, he sighed.

"Luo Peng, I know you put effort into it."

Nonsense.

Looking up body measurements online, then going on to create a character, really wasn’t a common feat of dedication.

"But we really do need to pull the ad."

"Why?"

Luo Peng was utterly baffled.

Jiang Chen glanced at him.

"When I called you this afternoon, Pei Yunxi was right beside me."

...

The dormitory instantly fell silent.

"Damn it!"

The Luo Peng who was just now confidently asserting that the CG ad was legal and without issues immediately changed his expression.

"What did Pei Yunxi say? She’s not going to cause trouble for me, is she?"

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but scoff with laughter.

"Scared now, are we?"

Luo Peng coughed awkwardly, testing the waters, "Is it because she disagrees?"

"Yeah. She did endorse our game, but she didn’t agree to let us randomly create her game image. Yes, I admit, that CG of yours indeed has decent promotional effects and a strong attraction, but did you bother to ask for her own wishes? She rarely has intimate scenes in movies, but there you go, you even slapped a bikini on her. Even if she doesn’t mind, aren’t you afraid of enraging her tens of millions of fans behind her?"

Jiang Chen teased.

"Tens of millions of people, you sure none of them are extremists? If they think you’re deliberately tarnishing their idol, who’s to say they won’t come knocking some day? Our dorm’s elderly caretaker is already over sixty, and that lock on our door, it looks like it could break with one kick."

"But all this is entirely for the game!"

Luo Peng defensively quipped.

"Peng, since Pei Yunxi disagrees, I think we should respect her opinion and pull the ad," Bai Zheli immediately shifted stance.

Luo Peng laughed in spite of himself.

"You’re a turncoat, are you?"

"I’ve already agreed to withdraw the ad, and from now on, in such matters, we need to be more careful, extremely cautious with character clothing and the like. She’s just a means to generate traffic for us, the main focus should still be on the game content."

Luo Peng silently nodded.

Jiang Chen dropped the subject.

"When do you plan to go home?"

"No rush, we should at least wait until the game is launched before leaving," Luo Peng said.

By now, this virtual love game was no longer a mere hobby project, but a career worth striving for.

The original computer science students, that is, the initial development team, had officially established a studio and become a learning model promoted by Dongda University.

"Okay, then let’s launch in three days."

"Three days? Jiang Chen, isn’t that too soon?"

"Developing in seclusion is useless, we need market testing, to extensively gather player feedback, and then gradually improve."

"I think Brother Chen has a point."

"Alright then, in three days."

————

As students nationwide began to enjoy their winter holidays, the virtual love game, endorsed by Pei Yunxi and thus drawing widespread attention, was officially launched.

By the day it officially hit the major app platforms, the number of pre-orders had already surpassed one million, and at the moment the server went live, there was actually a spectacle of tens of thousands of people queuing up.

"Pei Yunxi truly deserves to be the current top-tier superstar, with such terrifying appeal!"

"Relying solely on Pei Yunxi’s popularity won’t accomplish long-term success; if we don’t want it to be a flash in the pan, the game’s quality must withstand the test."

"From what we see so far, the game’s degree of realism is quite good—no face-pinching feature—allowing players to bravely face their real selves. However, compared to the promotional ads, the game’s real scenes are still slightly less impressive, leaving room for optimization," commented several game reviewers.

"Not bad, this game is quite accessible. You get a set of rooms to start off with; now I’m at least a property owner."

"When everyone has a property, whether you have one no longer matters."

"Damn these designers, I just went out on the street and met a fat lady who demanded a kiss right on her lips; thank goodness I ran fast!"

"Trash game, I just tried to hit on a milk tea girl, and she called me too ugly. One-star rating, can’t rate any higher!"

...

Twenty-four hours after the game server went live, its popularity remained unabated.

In a restaurant opposite Dongda University.

The largest private room was packed full.

"Jiang... General Manager Jiang, I toast to you."

The young man who rose nervously with a glass in hand was named Zhang Guangyi, a senior in Dongda University’s Computer Science department, and also the founder of the Xiaoyao Studio.

The conception of the virtual love game originated from him.

What was initially just the hobby of a few shy, tech-savvy geeks turned into a transformative product with Tianci Capital’s favor, altering the destiny of the game, and likewise, changing their own fates.
