Su Mu hadn't expected to receive an interview notification so quickly.
Although he had considerable confidence in Getting Over It, he was worried that there might not be a "Bo Le" in this world—soone with the vision to appreciate this ga.
After all, this ga could truly drive people insane. Anyone who could play it without losing their mind was undoubtedly a warrior among warriors.
Therefore, Su Mu was extrely nervous, and in his heart, he had cursed the "ditch-dwelling" system hundreds of tis.
Even giving him a harmless little farming ga like Stardew Valley would have been better.
Regardless, he had successfully secured an interview. The company was the miHoYo Ga Production Company...
Holy crap? miHoYo?
Su Mu almost jumped up. He never imagined that miHoYo would pass his resu and invite him for an interview.
Who approved his resu? It couldn't be "Da Wei" posing as a custor service girl, could it?
Or... was it those characters he had longed to see every day and night?
Su Mu searched his mind for information about miHoYo in this world. As soone who aspired to make a na for himself in the "blue ocean" of gaming, he naturally looked into miHoYo's titles.
To be honest, they were a completely obscure rookie company. It was a mystery why anyone would think highly of them.
Their only decent ga was HOMU Matching, a ga featuring that yellow-skinned rabbit. Although it had a few die-hard fans, the company's situation was far from optimistic.
In Arc City, where ga companies were as nurous as ox hairs, miHoYo was no different from any random passerby on the street.
But since he had nowhere else to go, and because he held complex feelings for the na "miHoYo," Su Mu decided to go to the interview.
He had to find a job first; otherwise, he'd eventually be labeled a "hikikomori."
Su Mu changed into a relatively decent outfit, took his resu folder, scanned a shared electric scooter, and rode toward the Arc City business district.
Although miHoYo was obscure, the fact that they had headquarters in the Arc City business district suggested the company's background was not simple.
You had to understand that everyone in this business district was a giant in the entertainnt industry.
Su Mu arrived at the 21st floor of the Arc Comrcial Building and was led into a eting room by the receptionist.
"Please wait a mont; the manager will be here shortly."
The receptionist's polite attitude made Su Mu feel comfortable. He looked around the conference room. It wasn't large, but it was tidy, and there was a faint floral scent in the air that made one feel refreshed.
Unfortunately, the eting room was separated from the workspace, so Su Mu couldn't see what the actual office looked like.
Tap—tap—tap—
Soon, the rapid sound of high heels ca from outside.
Before long, the door was opened, and a tall woman in a professional suit with silver hair appeared. Her chest was so impressive that her ID card almost seed to be swallowed by it.
When Su Mu saw her, a look of shock appeared on his face!
Bronya! It was the adult Bronya!
Does miHoYo really have Valkyries!?
Su Mu was a very straightforward person. He believed that since everyone was an adult, there was no need for pretenses.
Yes, he was a man of culture! He would always love Bronya! And everyone else!
Is it a cri for a man to appreciate beauty?
But soon, Su Mu noticed that Bronya looked a bit strange.
Despite her makeup, she couldn't hide those deep dark circles under her eyes.
Had she been staying up late working?
"Are you Su Mu?"
Bronya looked him up and down. For so reason, Su Mu felt her tone was... gritting her teeth?
And hidden beneath those dark circles was a thick sense of...
Murderous intent?
Although he knew Bronya, this should be their first ti eting in this world, right?
Where did this inexplicable murderous intent co from?
"Wait for , Bronya! Really!"
The eting room door was pushed open again. Appearing from behind the door was Kiana, who also had dark circles and ssy hair.
She was biting a sandwich with her left hand and holding a bottle of "AD Calcium Milk"—a Shenzhou specialty—in her right. There were breadcrumbs at the corner of her mouth.
"Kiana, Bronya... then where's i? Is she really a 'Rice Cooker' in this world, too?"
Looking at the clumsy white-haired tuna, Su Mu's mind instinctively went to the woman who controlled the power of pots and pans!
Pots and pans, surrender to !
Just thinking that he might one day hear i say those words herself made Su Mu almost laugh out loud.
After Kiana appeared, Bronya restrained her hostility. After she and Kiana took their seats, she began the introduction.
"I am the HR Manager, Bronya Zaychik. Welco to miHoYo's interview."
She emphasized the word "Welco" so much that Su Mu felt she held a deep grudge against him.
"As for her... she is the new President of miHoYo, Kiana Kaslana."
Su Mu was stunned by Bronya's introduction.
Eh?
He thought the President should be Bronya. After all, Bronya's... "assets" were very good at gathering people's hearts!
Who knew Kiana would be the President?
Hey, hey, is this company really okay? Letting a "Paracium" be the President, is it really all right?
He wasn't discriminating against Kiana... okay, he was completely worried! After all, she was a "Paracium." Making her the President was just making things difficult for her, right?
Kiana felt Su Mu's gaze and looked at him strangely. She was a bit puzzled.
For so reason, Su Mu's gaze reminded her of her father, Siegfried, worrying about his unsuccessful daughter.
After a brief self-introduction, Bronya quickly got to the point.
She turned on the projector, connected Su Mu's USB drive, and displayed his application project—Getting Over It.
"...So, this is your independent ga, Getting Over It?"
Bronya looked at the man in front of her. Recalling her ntal breakdown last night, she wanted to ask him right then and there:
With such a handso face, why would you make such a malicious ga?
Can this piece of junk even be called a ga?
Are you sure this wasn't specifically created to treat low blood pressure?
Or rather, is there sothing wrong with the brain of soone who could co up with this?
Who on earth would play this kind of trash ga that ruins one's youth?
Su Mu found it strange. Bronya's face was grim, and she didn't look like she was going to hire him. Then why call him for an interview...?
Since he was already here, Su Mu naturally wanted to fight for the opportunity. Working at the sa company as Bronya and Kiana was extrely tempting.
"Although it is slightly difficult..."
Su Mu cleared his throat.
"But it has great gaplay."
"While repeated failures may frustrate players, as they constantly move upward and overco difficulties, they will achieve an unprecedented sense of accomplishnt!"
Bronya almost rolled her eyes. Gaplay? You an torture! Accomplishnt? She almost punched through her computer screen, and he was telling her this?
This kind of brain-dead ga is just ruining my youth and wasting my money!
Do you think players nowadays are idiots? Why would they play this instead of a good ga—are they masochists?
Is your head broken?
"Mr. Su Mu, I must point out... your, uh, ga, is truly..."
Bronya suppressed her dissatisfaction. Hiring such a disaster into the company would surely be the end of miHoYo. She could never allow that!
"Therefore..."
"—Therefore, you are hired!"
Before Bronya could finish, Kiana, who had finished her breakfast, stood up and raised her right hand, smiling like a child.
Wait.
What's the situation?
Bronya almost scread.
Last night, Kiana had also tried the ga, and as expected, she was defeated by the difficulty.
Originally, Bronya thought the ga proposal should be scrapped imdiately to avoid harming more people.
But Kiana, for so unknown reason, had a sudden whim to et Su Mu.
She wanted to see what kind of "god" could design such a ga.
Bronya was actually curious, too. Since they weren't going to hire him anyway, there was no harm in eting.
But.
Kiana's announcent left her completely lost.
Wait.
Hired? Are you serious? You want to hire the person who designed this ga? Do you think miHoYo is a demon-sealing pagoda?
What criteria are you even using to hire him?
Didn't you also experience that "Requiem" of a ga that never reaches the end?
Do you think suffering is fun? Do you think that "pot-man" is handso?
Su Mu looked at the suddenly energetic Kiana and was stunned. Bronya's aura was so strong he almost forgot that Kiana was the company's President.
"Your na is Su Mu, right? Hmm... I have a few questions for you!"
"...Okay."
"You don't have any work experience, do you?"
"No."
"A fresh graduate? Does anyone in your family work in the ga industry?"
"No one."
"Great!"
Kiana Kaslana waved her hand grandly. She reached out to Su Mu, her eyes shining as if she had found a treasure!
"Welco to miHoYo! From today on, you are the Ga Director of our miHoYo Ga Company!"
She loved the sentence "Big Duck."
"?"
Wait? Kiana, is your brain "wattled" (fried)? Hiring him is one thing, but what do you an by Director?
Bronya knew it was too late. Seeing the two shaking hands, she felt a wave of dizziness.
Does this company really have a future?!
"I'm the Director?"
Su Mu was also confused. He knew the "Tuna" was a bit silly, but he didn't expect her to be this... ahem! No! She wasn't a "Tuna"; she was the super incredibly giant-sized cute Kiana who had reached out to a graduate on the verge of unemploynt!
He didn't expect to beco a Director at miHoYo right away. It seed it was ti to give the industry a little "shock" with the "Ninth Art" from his past life!
At this mont, Su Mu just wanted to sing.
Wuhu! Never had such a wonderful start!
However, Su Mu did not know.
At the mont he shook hands with Kiana.
In Kiana's mind, that mysterious voice sounded again.
[Host bound to Manager: Su Mu]
[The "Plan to beco the Richest by Losing Money" has begun. When Su Mu's projects lose money, you will receive ten tis the rebate!]
At this mont, Kiana just wanted to sing.
Wuhu! Never had such a wonderful start!!
