The Boss Behind The Game Chapter 90
The next day, in a meeting room at tform173 headquarters…
“You want to coborate with Battle Online Corporation for a tournament live stream?” Wu Guoyi asked
An Manman, who was sitting across the table.
“Yes, President Wu. For now, you are the only person that has any connection with the Battle Online
Corporation. This is why I am reaching out to you to discuss with Battle Online Corporation about the
live streaming rights for the tournament,” An Manman looked earnestly at Wu Guoyi.
The main reason for her to take a trip to Indigo City was to get the live streaming rights of the Battle
Online Corporation’s tournament.
Recently, several videos became viral on various video hosting tforms.
These videos were recorded by the Battle Online yers during their gamey.
One of the most popr videos was the Christmas Battle Event.
The video was paired with energetic background music, showing countless yers fighting fervently
and fearlessly against their enemy. Even though it was only through the screen, it made its viewers feel
the burning anger and persistence in the hearts of the yers.
Moreover, this particr video had received over a million views on various websites and had attracted
arge number of new yers.
It was precisely through her market research on Battle Online’s gaming video, that thepany An
Manman worked for, Shark Streaming tform, decided to seize this opportunity to obtain Battle
Online’s live streaming andmentary rights.
Although the popr online game had not been updated with popr events such as battle arena or
guild wars, she had a feeling that it would be all toote if she waited for the updates to beunched
before proposing this coboration.
As of now, Battle Online had garnered an unprecedentedly high rating within the gamingmunity.
For this reason, her father had asked An Manman toe to Indigo City and ask Wu Guoyi for help to
discuss the coboration details with the Battle Online Corporation.
Looking at An Manman, Wu Guoyi went silent for a moment, “Since your father is an old friend of mine,
I will be frank with you.”
An Manman listened while nodding her head.
“Even though Battle Online has not released any tournaments yet, I can firmly say that once it does, its
impact will not be weaker than the popr games like Antis. What’s more, its poprity could even
surpass Antis. If you want to buy live streaming andmentary rights, I’m afraid the cost will be
very high!”
Wu Guoyi himself had been discussing with Lu Wu about their coboration several times in the past,
so he knew Lu Wu’s take on this matter very clearly.
He sensed that Lu Wu did not care about profits, but instead wanted to focus on developing a good
game.
And this was something that Wu Guoyi admired so much about him.
Since he was also one of the yers of the game, he was well aware that if theyunched the gaming
credit top-up function, the profits generated would be phenomenal.
Wu Guoyi believed that if he himself were to make the decision, he would definitely not be able to resist
this temptation.
However, since the beginning of the game’s development until now, there was no hint of making soul
coins an in-game purchase. This was something that he could not figure out. He just could not grasp
what was on Lu Wu’s mind.
This was why he was not confident in An Manman’s proposal for the coboration.
Having heard Wu Guoyi’s advice, An Manman spoke after a moment of silence, “President Wu, I would
like to talk face to face with the person in charge of Battle Online.”
Wu Guoyi nodded when he heard her request, “If that is the case, then I’ll make an appointment for
you. However, I could not guarantee that he will meet you!”
An Manman smiled faintly, “Thank you for your help, Uncle Wu.”
……
Lu Wu let out a sigh as he looked at Bei Li. She was lying on the bed, snacking while sneaking side
nces at him from time to time, “Li, if you’re eating then eat properly. Why are you looking at me like
that?”

Bei Li propped up her upper body, with her mouth still chewing, “Spring is just around the corner, I
wanna see how animals change during their mating season!”
Lu Wu was left speechless by her statement.
Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks
“She is just a friend. We haven’t been in contact for a long time now…”
Lu Wu sighed. In all honesty, there was really nothing going on between him and An Manman; both of
them were really just regr friends.
At that moment, Lu Wu’s cell phone rang.
Picking up the call, Wu Guoyi’s voice came from the other end, “Brother Lu, are you free now? I would
like to treat you for lunch.”
Lu Wu looked at Bei Li, who had now turned her ear to his direction in an effort to eavesdrop, and he
felt a wave of helplessness in his heart.
“Brother Wu, I am kind of busytely. I’ll buy you a meal next time when I am free.”
Hearing this, Wu Guoyi went straight to the subject, “Have you consideredunching a tournament
mode?”
Lu Wu was stunned for a moment.
In fact, he too was thinking about holding a live stream for the game’s tournament.
Apart from the guild war that had been nned previously, he was also developing a battle event for
individual yers as well as a leaderboard of the yers and other features.
These were the newpetitive tournament features in development that Lu Wu was going to add.
Lu Wu had always paid extra attention to gaming tournaments.
In the development of games,petitive tournaments had yed one of the most crucial roles in
gaining publicity. Not to mention, it could also increase the poprity of the game itself.
This was well reflected in the earliest games. Each event had attracted arge number of yers to
cheer for their favorite team.
However, holding official tournaments required detailed andplicated preparations such as the
venue,mentators, and opening ceremonies. Although there were official gaming tforms that
only stream tournaments, which could also be used to run a tournament, the impact was way weaker
and the necessary conditions were still not up to par yet.
Nheless, Lu Wu wondered about the reason why Wu Guoyi would bring this topic up. As far as he
knew, tform173 did not have any involvement in the live streaming of tournaments.
“What does Brother Wu mean by that?” Lu Wu asked curiously.
“Have you heard of the Shark Streaming tform?”
“Of course. This streaming tform is one of the three major live game streaming tforms. I used to
watch the local and international tournamentmentaries on that tform.”
The moment Wu Guoyi mentioned the Shark Streaming tform, Lu Wu had more or less guessed the
reason.
“They would like to talk to you regarding the contract for the Battle Online tournament’s legal rights. It is
up to you to meet them or not, I am just asking on their behalf,” Wu Guoyi replied.
As soon as Lu Wu heard it, he was excited. After all, he was already nning tounch the first season
of the guild wars that he was developing. Moreover, Shark was one of the three major local live
streaming tforms, so they already have high traffic on the website, which could help to promote the
game. Thepany was highly experienced in hosting tournaments, which was exactly what he
needed.
“Let’s meet, Brother Wu!” after a moment of thought, Lu Wu gave a simple yet clear answer.
Wu Guoyi was stunned with Lu Wu’s change of attitude. He did not expect this reaction as Lu Wu’s
attitude had always been very chill.
Apart from developing the game, he had never cared about profits, but now, it seemed that he suddenly
had a change of heart.
“Well then, let’s have lunch together. I’ll inform her about it and will book a table at the Pce Hotel.
When you reach, juste to the table.”
Lu Wu gave his swift approval.
As he hung up the call, Lu Wu noticed Bei Li was staring nkly at him.
“I want to tag along!”
