Mingyan smiled and said, "Call me whatever you want. Sorry to keep you waiting."
He didn't sit across the table, but casually pulled out a chair next to him and sat facing Yu Bing, about half a meter away.
Yu Bing hurriedly said, "I arrived early! It's me, it's me."
As if in a casual conversation between friends, he bluntly asked, "School's on summer vacation, right?"
Yu Bing said, "Yes, yes, I heard about the Star Show Competition as soon as the holiday started. Many people in our class didn't go home for the time being and participated in the competition."
He said clearly, "That's good. You can play on Earth a little longer. Are you interested in continuing to develop your game 'Fingertip Hero'?"
The implied meaning in his words made Yu Bing blush with excitement.
Yu Bing immediately sat up straight, flattered and surprised, and said, "Yes! Absolutely, very much so! It's my honor!"
Mingyan laughed and said, "However, there's something I need to tell you in advance: Lanxing's work schedule is quite tight right now, so he can't make time for me. I'm thinking of having the Dragon Slayer Sword Studio collaborate with you..."
"Huh?"
Yu Bing was dumbfounded and asked in a daze, "Are you going to recommend me to another studio?"
etc.
"The Dragon-Slaying Saber"? He'd heard of it!
During regular classes, their teachers' favorite case studies are from Blue Star Studio and Dragon Slayer Sword Studio.
These two studios, in terms of player reputation, are at opposite ends of the spectrum, yet they have collaborated once.
That gacha game, Card Alliance, still dominates the top spots on the charts, making it a topic of great interest to teachers at the school.
If Mingyan intended to recommend Yu Bing for an internship at the Dragon Slayer Sword company, Yu Bing felt that made sense...
However, Yu Bing never expected this.
Mingyan revealed a mysterious smile: "Actually, I am also the chief designer and person in charge of the Dragon Slayer Studio. Both studios are under my name, so it doesn't matter where you intern. This time, the main thing is to prepare for Dragon Slayer Studio to cooperate in publishing your game."
Yu Bing was stunned for a moment, and her mind didn't process it for a long time.
Mingyan shushed him, saying, "Keep this a secret for me, don't tell anyone."
Chapter 57, Season 3
Several tens of seconds passed after Mingyan finished speaking.
Yu Bing's brain slowly processed this astonishing news; he could almost hear every nerve screaming "Holy crap!"
He stared wide-eyed, his mouth forming an "O" shape, and exclaimed, "Oh...oh!"
Even for such a simple word, he almost stutters.
God knows how shocked Yu Bing was!
Blue Star Studio and Dragon Slayer Sword Studio...aren't they two extremes?!
One is like a flower on a high mountain, the most conscientious and pure game development team in the eyes of players, an angel that even money can't get in;
The other, however, is ridiculed by players for creating entirely new game genres for money, earning him the nickname "God of Wealth" in the industry—a ruthless money-grabber...
At Yu Bing's school, teachers generally refer to these two studios as two separate groups of people.
On the forum, the latter is always used to highlight the former's extraordinary nature;
In the industry, those who support Blue Star and those who support the Dragon Slayer Sword despise each other, making it a prime topic of contention between the "dream chasers" and the "money chasers"...
—These two studios, so different from each other, are actually twins? Founded by the same designer?!
Yu Bing was completely resigned to her fate.
In the past, when I watched Mingyan, I was already looking at a senior figure in the industry, someone with outstanding achievements and remarkable accomplishments, which made me feel admiration.
Now we also need to consider the track record of the Dragon Slayer Sword Studio...
VR works are both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, generating a huge response in the industry; mobile games, on the other hand, can quickly lead trends and achieve unparalleled earning power.
At that moment, Yu Bing had only one thought in her mind: Holy crap, this isn't even human! It's a devil who manipulates people's hearts!!
If this secret were to fall into the hands of Blue Star's fans, if it were to reach the extreme of Mingyan's personality cult followers...
Yu Bing couldn't even imagine that scene.
Mingyan also noticed Yu Bing's shock.
After several tens of seconds of silence, Mingyan coughed to remind him to come back to his senses.
"In short, if you'd like, you can try interning at the Dragon Slayer Studio first," Ming said. "Whether or not you want to continue developing 'Fingertip Hero' with us is entirely up to you—"
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Bing hurriedly said, "I'm willing! Of course I'm willing! I can give the entire game's license to the cult leader!"
Mingyan smiled and said, "No, no, we still have to follow the rules. I'll have my secretary talk to you about the authorization fee later. Even though you're still a student, you need to learn to protect your own interests and not hand them over casually."
Yu Bing readily agreed, for he could see that Ming Yan appreciated him.
He felt flattered and overwhelmed.
After that, Mingyan gave Yu Bing a few pointers on a few design issues with "Fingertip Hero," and soon it was noon.
The secretary gave Yu Bing a temporary meal voucher, allowing him to have a free meal at the Blue Star employee cafeteria.
