We promised to develop a game of elimination, but what the hell is going on with Havoc in Heaven?

Shortly after Lin Dong hung up on Mu Wanqing, while he was waiting for her, his phone suddenly rang again.

Startled for a moment, Lin Dong picked up his phone and saw that it was Lin Qiulin calling. He answered the phone, and Lin Qiulin's voice quickly came through.

"Finally, you answered the phone! Juniors, are you alright? Did you run into any trouble at the Mu family's place? Did they give you any trouble?" Lin Qiulin visibly relaxed when he heard the phone answer, and then asked anxiously.

Hearing this, Lin Dong realized that he had forgotten to tell Lin Qiulin about his situation. He quickly replied, "It's alright, Senior Lin. Everything is going smoothly here. Grandpa Mu and Uncle Mu have also agreed not to interfere in your affairs anymore."

"That's good. Why didn't you answer the phone? I called Mu Wanqing but he didn't answer, and I called you but you didn't answer either. I was so worried. I almost took my dad and went there to kill him." Lin Qiulin breathed a sigh of relief at first, but then couldn't help but complain.

Lin Qiulin knew that Lin Dong had gone to the Mu family with Mu Wanqing. As Mu Wanqing's good friend, Lin Dong's senior and business partner, how could she not be worried?
These two guys didn't even bother to tell her anything; they're so heartless.

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong picked up his phone and glanced at it, discovering that Lin Qiulin had indeed called him twice last night, but he hadn't heard anything at the time: "Maybe my phone was out of battery then, so I couldn't answer your calls, Senior Lin."

As for why I didn't think to call Lin Qiulin, that was purely because of Mu Wanqing...

"Your phone is dead? I'd believe you if your phone was dead, but Mu Wanqing definitely didn't answer my calls because his phone was dead." Lin Qiulin hit the nail on the head, stating the truth directly.

Lin Dong: “…”

Lin Dong was speechless, unsure of what to say.

Lin Qiulin then asked, "Junior, did anything happen at the Mu family yesterday?"

"Cough cough." Lin Dong coughed dryly. Something had indeed happened, but could he tell Lin Qiulin about it? Lin Dong didn't even know what was going on with Mu Wanqing yet.

He quickly changed the subject, saying, "None of that matters, senior. It's a good thing you called; I also have something to tell you..."

As he spoke, he also told Lin Qiulin about his collaboration with Mu Zhenhai to develop a new game, "Black Myth: Wukong," which they planned to release after the TV series "Journey to the West" was broadcast.

We also hope that Lin Qiulin can complete the filming and release of Journey to the West as soon as possible, and we hope that Black Myth: Wukong can win a World Tour Gold Award this year.

Lin Qiulin was incredibly excited and successfully changed the subject, assuring him, "No problem, junior, I guarantee there won't be any problems. We'll launch it as soon as possible. You're really amazing, junior. No wonder the Mu family let you off the hook. Hearing this makes me want to start a game company and collaborate with you on developing a new game!"

Lin Dong was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Senior Lin, you know about games?"

"I don't understand! But don't you still have me, junior? I think having you is enough."

"..."

The two then chatted for a long time, and Lin Qiulin told Lin Dong the approximate release date of the TV series "Journey to the West".

Lin Dong was astonished. This was even faster than he had imagined. No wonder it was a planet known for its advanced technology and thriving entertainment.

At the same time, Lin Qiulin also severely reprimanded Mu Wanqing on the phone and asked Lin Dong to help her scold Mu Wanqing.

Lin Dong pretended not to hear about this.

He couldn't get involved in this kind of thing, and the two chatted for a while longer before hanging up the phone.

Not long after I hung up the phone.

A silver-gray sedan stopped in front of Lin Dong. The window rolled down, and Mu Wanqing leaned out, her face showing barely concealed excitement: "Come on, get in the car, I'll take you somewhere."

"Where to?" Lin Dong asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Dongqing, didn't you say you were going back to Dongqing?" Mu Wanqing asked.

"Go now? I mean go tomorrow." Lin Dong was stunned.

"Alright, alright, enough with the nonsense, just get in the car and that's it." Mu Wanqing handed over a bottle of iced drink, pushing and shoving as she spoke.

Lin Dong had no choice but to get into the car.

Although the Mu family, Mu Zhenhai's game company, and Dongqing are all in Kyoto, they are actually quite far apart.

So on the way, Lin Dong chatted with Mu Wanqing about Mu Zhenhai's game company and about "Black Myth: Wukong". Mu Wanqing just nodded and hummed, not paying much attention. Instead, she looked excited and looking forward to something.

Lin Dong was somewhat surprised by this, so he didn't say anything more and instead chatted casually with Mu Wanqing.

When they arrived at Dongqing Building, Mu Wanqing pulled Lin Dong into the company. Only then did Lin Dong understand why Mu Wanqing had insisted on bringing him to Dongqing at this time.

"Welcome back, President Lin and President Mu!"

"Congratulations to 'Myth' for winning the highest award! A groundbreaking achievement!"

"President Lin is the best in the world!!!"

As soon as the glass door of Dongqing Company was pushed open, cheers erupted from all sides.

In the lobby, employees from the technical and planning departments stood in two rows holding ribbon tubes. A red banner hanging from the ceiling read "Celebrating 'The Myth' winning the highest award in the World Tour." In the corner, there was a cake with a silhouette of "Sun Wukong" printed on it, and a small flag with the words "General Manager Lin is the best in the world" stuck on the cream.

"Hahaha, how about it, Brother Dong, Sister Mu, are you surprised? Unexpected?" Wang Xiaoxiao stepped forward at this moment, came to Lin Dong and Mu Wanqing, and laughed loudly.

All the other employees at Dongqing also had smiles on their faces.

After all, they made history and set a precedent. The highest award above the gold medal, the World Tour specially established a supreme award for them, and now it has been achieved. How could everyone not be happy?

The Myth is something they've all watched grow step by step to where it is today, and Dongqing is someone they've all watched grow from a new company to where it is now—something no one can ignore.

They always knew Myth was a good game, but they never imagined it would come this far.

As employees of Dongqing, they are honored that Myth has received such an honor. To be realistic, their value as Dongqing employees has skyrocketed as a result, and if they want to switch jobs, they can get much better treatment than before.

Of course, Dong Qing and his "Myth" are currently unstoppable, so it's impossible for them to switch jobs.

Lin Dong was completely stunned, his Adam's apple bobbing: "When...did you prepare this?"

"Hehe, I started preparing as soon as I heard you guys were coming back these past few days." Wang Xiaoxiao shook the confetti tube in her hand and said with a smile, "After all, 'Myth' won the highest award in the history of the World Travel, which is groundbreaking. We should at least celebrate."

Lin Dong was both amused and touched by what he heard. He hadn't thought about these things before, but indeed, the success of a game was not just due to him alone, but also to everyone present.

This is something to celebrate.

He looked at Mu Wanqing and asked, "Senior, you already knew? So I was the only one who didn't know?"

Before Mu Wanqing could speak, Wang Xiaoxiao awkwardly said from the side, "Ah, well... it's mainly because Sister Mu came back all morning and she found out. She originally wanted to give you two a surprise."

Lin Dong understood immediately upon hearing this, but he didn't mind and shouted to everyone present, "Today is the celebration banquet for 'The Myth'! Everyone has worked hard these past few days. I'll give everyone a big red envelope later!!!"

"Ahhh, President Lin is awesome!"

"President Lin, I'm sticking with you for life!"

"President Lin is the best in the world! Myth is the best in the world!" Hearing Lin Dong's words, everyone present became even more excited and boisterous, with cheers and laughter mingling together and drifting into the night sky through the glass door.

Lin Dong smiled and, together with Mu Wanqing and Wang Dongdong, began to host the celebration banquet and started distributing cake to everyone.

……

……

at the same time.

Just as Dongqing was making a fuss.

At this moment, the internet is also starting to buzz with excitement.

As news stories emerged, the entire internet erupted in excitement.

[Xuefeng Film & Television officially announces: The TV series "Journey to the West" is coming soon! This series is produced by renowned writer Lin Dong, renowned director, and renowned...]

[Following the game "Myth" and the novel "Journey to the West," a TV series version of it is coming!]

[Muyu Games officially announced: A successful collaboration with Dongqing has been reached. The new game "Black Myth: Wukong" has been officially launched. This is a story where players take on the role of Sun Wukong and experience the eighty-one tribulations. It is created by Lin Dong of Dongqing and is expected to be released in October this year.]

[Muyu Games declares that their goal is the World Game Gold Award! They are very confident in achieving this, so please stay tuned.]

One bombshell after another sent shockwaves through the internet.

Not only the title, but the content is even more explosive.

No one expected it.

How come "Journey to the West" has been adapted into a film and television series so quickly?
Dongqing has actually partnered with other game companies?
Both news items were like depth charges, instantly igniting the entire scene.

The comments section was incredibly lively:

"Holy crap! The TV series 'Journey to the West' is finally going to be released! I've been waiting for so long!"

"Famous director, famous screenwriter, famous actor... wait, who's this guy playing Sun Wukong? I've never heard of him before?! A newcomer?! Holy crap, is Xuefeng really that poor? Dongqing makes a lot of money, why would they cast a newcomer in such a crucial role? Is that reliable? Did they get it through connections?"

"Oh no! I don't want 'Journey to the West' to be ruined!"

"It has been adapted into a film or television series."

"I know that. This actor was chosen by Lin Donglin because he thought he was like Sun Wukong."

"What? It's Lin She! Then it's alright."

"That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is, did you see that?! The entire voice acting for 'Journey to the West' was done by Lin She! Ahhh!"

"Lin She is awesome! He's a true all-rounder!"

"Xuefeng Film and Television is reliable, not to mention that Lin She is supervising the project, so there shouldn't be any problems. I'm looking forward to it!"

"..."

The scene surrounding "Journey to the West" is incredibly lively.

On the other side, "Black Myth: Wukong" was equally lively.

"???"

"Dongqing has partnered with other game companies?!"

"Muyu Games? I've never heard of this company before! If Dongqing wants to cooperate, they should find some big companies, even NetEase or Tencent, right? Why did they choose such an unknown company?"

"Is this reliable or not? Generally speaking, these kinds of collaborations don't seem very reliable."

"Indeed, if it were truly that capable, why doesn't Dongqing do it themselves?"

"How is it unreliable! Lin She is the chief designer! Do I need to explain who Lin She is? As for why they don't do it themselves, Myth has enough business already, and Dongqing hasn't been established for long, they simply can't handle it all."

"Alright, alright, I was going to say that Lin She is neglecting his duties! Instead of updating 'Mythology,' he's developing a new game! But when I saw that I'm playing as Sun Wukong, then it's fine, let's go for it! I'll definitely buy it when it comes out!"

"+1! A must-buy! Lin Design's product! A must-have! Trust Lin Design!"

"Am I seeing things wrong? Released in October, aiming for the World Swimming Award? Holy crap, is this for real?! Winning a gold medal in two months? Are they that confident?"

"Look at the details, this goal was set by Lin himself, it's invincible!"

"Lin She is the best! She's amazing!"

"The fact that Lin She is so confident means the game package is awesome!"

"If Lin She really gets it, that would be ridiculous."

Whether it's "Journey to the West" or "Black Myth: Wukong," netizens have had considerable controversy about them.

"Journey to the West" is fine; everyone in the film and television industry understands that once it's released, this series is destined to be unstoppable.

Xuefeng attaches great importance to "Journey to the West", so what kind of accident could happen?
Many people are already preparing to avoid their sharp edge.

Meanwhile, many game companies felt immense pressure after seeing the news about "Black Myth: Wukong".

Especially after seeing that "Black Myth: Wukong" was aiming for the World Tour Gold Award, they were all cursing.

If "Black Myth: Wukong" actually wins the gold medal, then they will truly become a laughing stock.

Released in October, with less than two months left until the end of the World Swimming Championships, they think they can beat them in a year in less than two months? And they actually won? What is this if not a joke?
Logically speaking, this is impossible. Although there have been precedents of people joining a game halfway through and winning the gold prize, it has never lasted more than half a year. How could someone win the gold prize in just two months?

But when they thought about Lin Dong being behind the game, they realized it wasn't impossible.

Many game companies have already started criticizing Lin Dong behind the scenes.

That bastard, winning the World Tour's highest award wasn't enough, now he wants the gold medal too.

Do you really have to win this gold medal?

Not satisfied with not winning the gold medal? But you've already won the highest award! It's even a world-class award created just for you, setting a precedent.

At a time like this, you're still putting so much pressure on everyone. Who else should be criticized but you? (End of Chapter)
