163: They weren't coming for me at all.
"star universe era" uses the Unreal Engine 5, and its graphics are top-tier among domestic mobile games. It also features 'Custom Planet' gameplay with high freedom. Its closed beta data was excellent, showing that users love it.
What it lacks now is funding. As long as money is invested to push for the open beta, it has a high probability of becoming a massive hit once launched.
Moreover, Qin Yu and the others have time to monitor the project, Wu Tian has family connections to help with promotion, and Guo Hao is good at dealing with people and can connect with distribution channels.
With the three of them dividing the labor, she only needs to provide some startup capital or help them make connections to ensure a steady profit.
After thinking it through, Lei Jun looked at the three and said, "I met someone named Zhang Li before. He is the founder of Xingyun Interactive Entertainment and developed a mobile game called 'star universe era'."
"Investigate for me whether it's a good time to enter this company now and what the game's prospects are. It's best to ask game industry analysts or investment bankers. This might be an opportunity to make a fortune."
The eyes of Qin Yu, Wu Tian, and Guo Hao instantly lit up.
Lei Jun had just agreed to let them be her lackeys and already gave them a chance to make money. This was too generous!
Wu Tian immediately pulled out his phone: "I know a CEO of a game company. I'll invite him to dinner tomorrow and ask about 'star universe era'!"
If this game really succeeds, he could break away from his family's real estate business in the future and do investments independently. How glorious that would be.
Guo Hao also hurriedly said, "My dad has a friend in an investment bank who covers the TMT Industry. I'll have him help analyze Xingyun Interactive Entertainment's finances and game data!"
He felt this was an opportunity to prove himself and had to perform well so Lei Jun would feel that taking him on as a lackey wasn't in vain.
The three grew more excited as they talked, wishing they could go investigate right now.
Looking at their expressions, Lei Jun couldn't help but smile.
Young people really have a lot of drive... The next day, Lei Jun returned to Modu.
School was starting in another day, so she had to prepare in advance.
Lei Jun leaned on the sofa, thinking about the start of school.
Studying shouldn't be difficult for her. With her Photographic Memory, she could remember what the teacher said after hearing it once, so exams would definitely be no problem.
She didn't have much pursuit of grades; anyway, she didn't need a diploma to find a job. She mainly wanted to experience campus life and occasionally chat with classmates, which was more interesting than dealing with businessmen like Jack Ma and Lei Jun every day.
Pet Name pounced over to rub against her legs... This little fellow was becoming more and more clingy.
After playing with Pet Name for a while, she decided to take Su Qing, Su Ya, Lei Ying, and Lei Yue to Disneyland in the afternoon to relax.
When they arrived at Disneyland, it was exactly two in the afternoon, and the sunlight was perfect.
It was Su Qing and Su Ya's first time here, and their eyes were wide with wonder... the castle, the carousel, the cartoon characters—the atmosphere was lively everywhere.
Seeing how excited Su Qing and the others were, Lei Jun also became happy.
They first went on Pirates of the Caribbean, watching the practical special effects from the boat. Su Ya screamed in fear, while Lei Ying protected Lei Jun the whole time, afraid someone might bump into her.
Next, they rode the "Seven Dwarfs Mine Train." The roller coaster wasn't too intense. Su Qing shouted with laughter the whole time, while Lei Jun sat beside her, feeling the wind brush against her cheeks... This kind of relaxed moment was nice.
Finally, they rode the carousel. Su Ya and Su Qing chose pink horses, Lei Ying and Lei Yue stood nearby watching, and Lei Jun chose a white horse, spinning slowly and feeling very peaceful in her heart.
After playing until evening, they ate Disneyland turkey legs and ice cream. Su Qing and Su Ya got food all over their mouths, while Lei Jun only had a light taste.
Back home, Lei Jun took a bath, the warm water washing away the day's fatigue.
She lay on the bed and soon fell asleep.
She had to get up early for school tomorrow. Although studying wasn't hard, she had to stay spirited; she couldn't be late on the first day... At seven the next morning, Lei Jun woke up.
Su Qing had already prepared breakfast.
Whole wheat sandwiches, fried eggs, hot milk, and a plate of sliced strawberries.
Lei Jun took a few bites and thought it tasted good.
After breakfast, Lei Ying drove her to Shanghai University.
At the school gate, Lei Jun saw many students talking and laughing.
She didn't attract too much attention, as she was wearing a mask and a hat after all.
There were no classes in the morning, so Lei Jun walked around the campus to familiarize herself with the locations of the teaching buildings and the library.
In the afternoon, there was a public elective course.
After she arrived at the classroom, it was filled with people in no time.
Not only were the seats full, but the aisles and steps were also crowded with people, and some were even standing at the door, peeking in on their tiptoes.
The lecturer was Zhang Qiming, an associate professor at Shanghai University. Usually, his classes had thirty people at most. Seeing so many people this time, he felt both excited and nervous.
"Could it be that the paper I published recently went viral?"
After the bell rang, Zhang Qiming cleared his throat and began his lecture. His voice was much louder than usual, and he gestured animatedly as he discussed industry case studies with great passion.
But before ten minutes had passed, he felt something was wrong.
Most of the students below were looking down, either secretly checking their phones or glancing toward the back; no one was actually listening to his lecture seriously.
He followed the students' gazes toward the back and immediately saw Lei Jun.
In that instant, Zhang Qiming was stunned.
Silver hair, skin as white as snow, and features as exquisite as someone from a painting. Even sitting in the back row, she seemed to carry her own spotlight, making it impossible to look away.
"Is this the 'Number One Campus Belle in Modu University's History' everyone's been talking about, Lei Jun?" Zhang Qiming muttered to himself. "No wonder so many people came to the lecture. They aren't here for me at all; they're here for her!"
He had thought his class had suddenly become popular, but now he realized it was just wishful thinking.
However, he wasn't angry. Lei Jun was truly beautiful; if it were him, he wouldn't be able to help taking a few extra glances either.
Zhang Qiming composed himself and continued the lecture, but his voice was clearly not as excited as before.
He knew the students' minds were all on Lei Jun now. No matter how well he taught, no one would listen.
Nevertheless, he finished the lecture seriously.
After all, as a teacher, he had to fulfill his duty.
After the bell rang, most students didn't leave but instead secretly took out their phones to take pictures of Lei Jun.
Lei Jun didn't mind. She packed her things and left the classroom with Lin Xiaoya to return to the dormitory... Back at the dorm, Lin Xiaoya leaned in close to Lei Jun.
"Sister Lei, I haven't seen you for a while. I really missed you."
During the past few days of the holiday, she had learned about Lei Jun's terrifying identity from her father, Lin Zhengming.
People from Bureau 749 acting as Bodyguards!
A major shareholder in two trillion-dollar conglomerates!
Her subordinates were all top-tier talents.
Her background was at least on the level of the Four Great Families.
At that time, after hearing it all, she was completely stunned and didn't know what to say.
This background was too terrifying!
Therefore, she had to cling tightly to Lei Jun's thigh from now on.
Maintaining a good relationship with Lei Jun would only bring benefits and no harm to herself and her family.
