The staff in the game development department watched Lin Xuan's speed and couldn't help but feel amazed.
The boss is really, really incredible.
He doesn't even need to think while typing code.
If you didn't know better, you'd think the boss was just copying from an answer key.
No! Even copying from an answer key wouldn't be this fast.
Lin Xuan's hands never stopped.
Whole pages of code appeared on the computer screen.
The code filled the entire monitor.
The employees had initially been staring at the screen, trying to see what code Lin Xuan was typing and understand his thought process.
But Lin Xuan was too fast; the screen refreshed in no time.
They couldn't keep up and had to give up.
Their eyes were filled with nothing but astonishment for Lin Xuan.
Fifteen minutes later, Lin Xuan stopped.
"It's done. Test it to see if there are any remaining issues," Lin Xuan said.
Manager Wang immediately sat down at the computer and started operating.
Five minutes later, his eyes were full of excitement.
"It's fixed, it's really fixed!"
"Excellent! With this problem solved, I believe this battle royale game can be launched soon."
The game development staff were also full of admiration for Lin Xuan.
A problem that had stumped their department for ten days, and the boss solved it in less than half an hour after arriving... What kind of speed was that...
"See, I wasn't wrong, is the boss amazing or what?" one team member said to another game developer who had doubted Lin Xuan.
That game developer slapped his own face with a "smack" sound.
"Yes, I shouldn't have doubted the boss."
He had to admit, his face really stung from that slap.
"Aside from this issue, are there any other problems?" Lin Xuan asked.
Manager Wang shook his head. "No."
Lin Xuan asked again, "So when do you plan to launch this game?"
Manager Wang replied, "We plan to start a closed beta in two days. If there are no issues, we'll proceed with the official launch."
Lin Xuan didn't speak. He sat back down at the computer desk and ran the game once more.
He said, "The game has no issues. No need for a closed beta. Launch it directly."
Manager Wang frowned tightly.
Launch directly?
From his understanding of the boss, he wasn't someone so imprudent.
Manager Wang spoke up, "Boss, last time for our Glory of Kings, we did a closed beta, right? To be cautious, shouldn't we run a closed beta? If we find problems, we can fix them promptly."
Lin Xuan said, "The closed beta last time was just for show for the Starlight Group. Now that Starlight Group has collapsed, we don't need to do a closed beta anymore."
"Skipping the closed beta saves us a sum of money."
Lei Hui, standing nearby, understood.
So the boss was skipping the closed beta purely because he was stingy.
Lei Hui couldn't help but shake his head.
To a certain extent, the boss was truly stingy to the extreme.
For novels, movies, TV shows, and games, the boss always used other companies to do his promotion, saving on marketing costs.
And also, to give his competitors heartburn.
The boss was truly adding insult to injury.
Manager Wang nodded in agreement. "Alright. In two days, I will hold a game launch event."
Lin Xuan said, "For game promotion, focus on Huyin (Tiger Sound), embed promotional content within Glory of Kings and Sheep a Sheep, and have some of the gaming influencers we sponsor play this game during their livestreams."
"For the rest, rely on recommendations from within the player community."
This game was a huge hit in another world.
He had essentially replicated that game from the other world, just with some improvements of his own.
He believed this game would also become a massive hit in this world.
With both Glory of Kings and this battle royale game.
Their company's position as the gaming industry leader would become unshakable.
Furthermore, he would also replicate other hugely popular games from that other world, like Black Myth: Wukong.
Battle royale and Glory of Kings are both competitive games; he would also design some more casual, lifestyle-oriented games.
"Okay." Manager Wang nodded again. "Don't worry, I'll arrange everything properly."
Manager Wang had initially been quite worried that skipping the closed beta might lead to some undiscovered issues. But then it occurred to him that if problems really did arise, given the boss's ability, he could solve them quickly.
Moreover, the boss had just checked the game again himself. If he said there were no problems, then there were no problems.
Manager Wang now also felt a sense of inexplicable admiration for Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan spoke again, "If there are any issues with the game, remember to call me."
"Okay," Manager Wang nodded.
"If there's nothing else, I'll..." take my leave.
Before Lin Xuan could finish, the technical department staff rushed to say, "Boss, I have a question I need to ask you."
"Me too, I also have a question."
These employees all shared one thought.
The boss rarely comes to the company; who knows when he'll come next time.
We can't let the boss leave so easily this time.
Lin Xuan looked at his employees.
He rubbed his temples.
Fine.
Since they were all his employees.
Their questions were for the company's benefit anyway; solving them well was advantageous for him.
Spending a bit more time on them wasn't a big deal.
"Alright, then let's go one by one," Lin Xuan said helplessly.
By the time Lin Xuan helped them solve all their problems, two hours had passed.
Lin Xuan arrived at the company building's ground floor.
He planned to take a casual walk.
Lin Qingwan felt very guilty towards Lin Xuan. She had always wanted to make it up to him but couldn't find an opportunity.
She didn't even have a chance to meet him.
She often spent her free time wandering near the Tianmu Group building. She didn't know where Xiao Xuan lived, so it was hard to visit him at home.
All she knew was the location of his company.
She could only frequently linger near his company entrance, hoping to run into him.
But Xiao Xuan very, very rarely came to the company. It was hard for her to have a chance to meet him, let alone make amends.
The secretary parked the car in front of the Tianmu Group building.
"President Lin," the secretary said, "I heard Young Master Lin rarely comes to Tianmu Group. He leaves all company matters to the general manager to handle. This time, you might still be unable to meet Young Master Lin, just like before."
Lin Qingwan withdrew her gaze from the Tianmu Group building.
She said in a low voice, "That's to be expected."
Lin Qingwan suddenly received a phone call.
There was also the sound of a fierce argument on the other end of the line.
She frowned tightly. "Okay, I understand. I'll return immediately."
"Let's go back."
Lin Qingwan put down her phone and instructed.
Since she couldn't see Xiao Xuan anyway, waiting further was pointless.
"Yes, President Lin."
Just as the secretary was about to drive away, she suddenly spotted a figure walking out of the Tianmu Group building.
"President Lin," the secretary said excitedly, "It's your brother, Young Master Lin Xuan, he has appeared!"

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

] [Lone Wolf, No Male Gaze] [Protagonist is pursued early on; extreme protagonist-stans, stay away!] The "Carnival Paradise" descends and slowly devours the real world in the form of a game. By chance, Zhu Yan awakens the talent [Roleplay], becoming one of the first beta players. He thought he could develop safely, but after clearing the first instance, he is branded by humanity as the chief culprit behind the game's spread—a traitorous villain. A villain? Who would ever... become one! He'll be the villain! From then on, Zhu Yan is not only a player but also a lackey for the Carnival Paradise. Between the straight path and the crooked path, he chooses the con. With his left hand, he dons the villain's mantle, staging scenes within instances, infuriating players who decry him as a despicable traitor, all while the game happily promotes him. With his right hand, he joins the non-human organization "Fangcun Mountain," which opposes the Carnival Paradise, transforming into a mysterious player who slaughters game bosses, earning cheers of "Long live the expert!" from fellow players. Gradually, Zhu Yan rises to become an S-rank human player in Fangcun Mountain's archives, while also being the Carnival Paradise's certified top game Boss. But when the final war erupts and both major factions place their hopes in him— Players tag his various aliases: "Experts, this offensive depends on you." The Carnival Paradise's supreme Boss throws an arm around his neck: "Bro, you're the iron, I'm the steel; you can't let me down again!"
