Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

Chapter 209: Experiencing Honor of Kings

Over four consecutive matches, aside from one where he was ambushed by a camper hiding behind a door, Wu Yun secured three chicken dinners, each one won in a different way.

He won through aggressive gunplay, through stealth, and even through sheer luck.

Wu Yun’s slick moves had the onlookers roaring with excitement, and just like that, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds gained its first batch of fans.

Wu Yun set his mouse down. "Fix the bugs," he said. "I want everyone to play it. Go all out today. Tomorrow, write up a report on any flaws or suggestions you have and submit it."

"President Wu! I can’t believe you’ve grasped the essence of the game on your first try! You could start streaming right now!" Ling Yi complimented from the side.

Wu Yun said modestly, "I’m nowhere near the level of professional players. I just happen to like games, which is why I get these flashes of inspiration."

Wu Yun then recalled the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds of his previous life, which was plagued with cheaters, and continued:

"President Ling! In the future, we must be resolute in cracking down on cheats for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. We have to maintain a clean gaming environment for it! It’s worth it, no matter the cost."

Wu Yun stated gravely, "If anyone flies in the face of this, I have no problem spending whatever it takes to drag them to court."

At noon, Wu Yun took Wei Wu, Ling Yi, and a few other managers to a nearby restaurant for a casual lunch.

Ling Yi, Lu Changsheng, and the others walked Wu Yun all the way to his car.

After the group watched the Rolls-Royce drive away, Ling Yi finally turned to the others with a smile. "Gentlemen, with a boss this capable backing us, if we still don’t succeed, we might as well go bang our heads against a wall."

...

After a short break, Wu Yun arrived at the office building where Galaxy Network was located.

The car had just come to a stop when Wang Chao and his group, who had been waiting by the roadside, hurried over.

Wang Chao personally opened the car door for Wu Yun, and a chorus of greetings immediately erupted from behind him.

Wu Yun’s expression remained unchanged as he nodded in acknowledgment to the group. He then turned to Wei Wu and said, "Go find a place to park and rest. I might be three or four hours."

"Yes, Boss!"

It was the middle of the afternoon workday, so many people noticed the tall, rich, and handsome man who was being treated like the center of the universe as he stepped out of the car.

If the welcoming party had been dressed in suits and leather shoes instead of plaid shirts and jeans, the scene would have been a perfect replica of a domineering CEO’s entourage from a TV drama.

After waiting a turn for the elevator, Wu Yun’s group and a few young, fashionable city women entered together.

The women kept sizing up Wu Yun’s clothes and his handsome face, exchanging glances and trying to nudge each other into asking for his contact information.

The elevator doors opened.

Wang Chao extended a hand in a welcoming gesture. "President Wu, after you!"

Without ceremony, Wu Yun was the first to step out of the elevator.

After the large group exited, the elevator suddenly felt much more spacious, leaving behind a few swooning women.

...

Wu Yun’s main purpose for the visit was to try out the beta version of the game. The other games hadn’t been released yet, so all the data was just placeholder.

Because the mobile game Honor of Kings hadn’t been officially released, Galaxy Network had only developed an Android version for the first internal test. The iOS version was still in testing.

That’s why Wu Yun had gone out and bought an Android phone specifically to download the Honor of Kings installation package.

"President Wang, how is the iOS version coming along?" Wu Yun asked, standing behind an employee who was playing a game.

Wang Chao smiled and replied, "It’s already developed! We were just waiting for your approval, President Wu, so we haven’t uploaded it to the Apple Store yet."

Wu Yun nodded, then took out his own phone. "Install it for me. I want to try it out."

He unlocked it and handed it to Wang Chao.

Wang Chao immediately called over a programmer. "Install the iOS beta for President Wu."

The programmer took the phone, skillfully air-dropped an installation package to it, bypassed the system check, and quickly installed the software.

Wu Yun held the phone, looking at the game app—so different from his previous life, yet bearing the same name—and nodded in satisfaction.

"The art design is excellent! I’m very satisfied," Wu Yun said casually. "I’ll personally give the artist who drew this a bonus equal to one month’s salary."

His words were met with an excited shriek from a young woman in the crowd. "Yay! Thank you, President Wu!"

Wu Yun looked up and saw it was a girl with glasses and braces. He smiled and offered encouragement, "All of you, keep up the hard work! There will be plenty more rewards like this in the future!"

The pie in the sky Wu Yun offered was a sweet one, and many faces in the crowd lit up with excitement.

He tapped the icon and was quickly brought to a familiar yet strange screen. The background music was a Huaxia-style melody that complemented the background art.

Wu Yun skipped the new player tutorial and went straight to the game’s main page.

The hero selection was still small, with only about ten options. Each one had a Huaxia-inspired design, from their armor to their clothing.

"President Wang! How many hero models have been completed in total?" Wu Yun asked, looking at the characters.

Wang Chao replied with a smile, "President Wu, we’ve already finished the models for 20 characters. We plan to use the remaining ten as rewards to be obtained through gacha, hero shards, and other similar methods after launch."

"And it’s not just the characters. We’ve also prepared various unique skins, with one set ready for each hero."

Hearing this, Wu Yun opened the in-game store and, sure enough, found a few pre-loaded skins and heroes.

After looking around a bit more, Wu Yun announced, "Alright! Time for a 1v1 duel! I’ll give five hundred to anyone who can beat me in a single match! Who’s up for it?"

Instantly, every employee—except for the management team—raised their hand.

"Uh, that’s too many people! I’ll just randomly pick five!" Wu Yun then selected three men and two women who looked like easy targets.

The chosen five came forward excitedly.

Wu Yun casually picked one of the women. "You’re first!"

With a few quick operations in the backend, the two were successfully matched up.

The next few matches became Wu Yun’s personal showcase. Even though the characters and Skills were slightly different from his past life, he relied on his advanced game sense and mechanics to easily destroy his opponents’ crystals.

Seeing the disappointed looks on the faces of the five, Wu Yun smiled. "The gameplay experience is very smooth! The character designs are also excellent, but I think the voice acting and lines could be optimized a bit more."

"It’s much better than last time! Later, I’ll send out a few big red envelopes in the company group chat. Make sure you’re ready to grab them!"

"Now, let’s continue. We’ll try the 3v3 mode!"

After that, Wu Yun also tried the 5v5 and story modes.

Aside from a few minor differences and flaws in the details, Wu Yun felt that this Honor of Kings mobile game was already more than good enough.

「In the conference room.」

"...Alright, that’s everything that needs improvement. Now, let’s talk about the closed and open betas."

Wu Yun paused his long monologue, took a sip of water, and finally looked at the row of managers sitting across from him. "President Wang, President Qi, regarding the promotion and release strategy, have you two come up with a concrete plan?"
