This gift was very thoughtful; Mingyan couldn't resist unfolding it and taking a picture on the spaceship.
He then posted on his blog to brag about it:
[A small token of my appreciation: Thank you everyone for your kind gestures. I've received the gifts, I'm so touched =v=]
This is the first time Mingyan has openly boasted on his personal account!
He never flaunts game ratings, never boasts about Blue Star Studio's revenue and profits, and never mentions anything about his personal life... but he did show off for the first time to his fans.
The comments below were full of jokes about it:
[Holy crap, you devil, so you can laugh normally!!!]
[=v= So happy! I also participated in the cross-stitch. It took me three nights, and the top right corner is mine!]
[Master Craftsman Ming's skill level is truly amazing; even his fans can create works of art. Aren't you impressed?]
[My devilish husband would never use such cute emojis! Tell me! Is that his secretary, Xiao Gaigai, sending emojis in the background?!]
[You jerk! If you're touched, go work overtime!]
...We don't need the fans to say it.
It's obvious he's working overtime on the spaceship!
This time, he was well-prepared, bringing his two usual workstations and a large suitcase full of laptops.
Well, even if you wander outside for half a year, you won't have to worry about not having a job.
Xia Cheng stared at Mingyan's suitcase, and six dots appeared on his forehead as if they were real: "..."
There's nothing we can do; that's just the kind of person Chief Engineer Ming is.
Not to mention the boring parts of the journey, even when he arrived at the awards ceremony for this year's Jia League, he still had an electronic notebook in his suit pocket.
It was at this time that Mingyan reluctantly abandoned paper and embraced high technology.
In reality, once you're in the territory of the Central Star Province, you'll find the latest technology everywhere.
Most interstellar people are now at a stage where they have no worries about food and drink. The abundant planetary resources within the alliance allow many people to live well without having to work, simply by receiving government subsidies.
With the addition of technology, their lives are completely "food is served to them and clothes are put on them for them," and they can even save themselves the trouble of asking for food or asking for clothes.
Their biggest question every day is: What should I do to kill time today?
Against this backdrop, it is entirely understandable that the gaming industry would become one of the largest pillar industries of the Chaoyang Alliance.
Similarly, workaholics have become figures that people look up to.
"You can really make a game every year?!"
The staff from the A-League were amazed as they led him into the recording studio.
It's that time of year again for the annual Game of the Year awards ceremony, and it's also time to record Mingyan's image and update the Platinum Hall of Fame.
He clearly stated last year that he couldn't come due to some reason, but he did come the year before.
...At the time, he had a perfect score copy of "Blue Star Apocalypse" in his hand, and Xia Cheng even asked, "What if a sequel comes out?"
The staff member said at the time: You can hold one in one hand.
Then, to everyone's surprise, just two years later, Mingyan said he was back!
And this time he brought three nominated games with him: *Blue Star Apocalypse*, *Mortal Souls*, and *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*!
The staff member was stunned for a long time before rushing off to ask his superior for instructions.
It turned out that his superior was the same person who had come to guide Mingyan two years ago. He was stunned for a moment and then made a call to ask his superior for instructions.
—There has never been a case in history where a designer has brought three games into the Platinum Hall of Fame! Since it has never happened before, no one knows how to film it.
Finally, several solutions were provided above, and the one that appeared to be the most normal was chosen:
These games were made to float in the air, rotating around Mingyan who was sitting in the chair, looking like a halo behind him.
Xia Cheng laughed from the side, "This is a good idea. We can fit in as many games as we want from now on."
Staff: "..."
Well, he really wanted to refute Xia Cheng: Three times is already the limit for an outstanding designer! This is the Platinum Hall of Fame, do you think it's a vegetable market where you can just walk in and out?!
But turning to look at Mingyan, this young man had already come three times, and had even won an award twice. This was his third time coming to watch the awards ceremony...
After thinking about it, the staff member decided to keep quiet.
—Just kidding, there are still cautionary tales to learn from, he doesn't want to be proven wrong.
Leisurely time still passes quickly.
The official awards ceremony this year is scheduled for the evening of December 12th, and the proceedings will proceed as usual.
Mingyan had made preparations well in advance and led his team to their seats.
Now, Blue Star is bustling with many people. After occupying a large seat, many people came to greet me.
A few of them had already established business relationships, but most were just trying to get close to them.
After everyone had entered, the ceremony began quickly.
