Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

Wu Yun, just who was he!

The power of the vast online community was astounding. In less than a day, they had dug up all the information on Wu Yun. Fortunately, Wu Yun had a "shield" in place. Even with their far-reaching abilities, the netizens couldn't uncover details about his private life.

However, because Wu Yun had established a charitable foundation, Nirvana Investment also officially entered the public eye.

Since Wu Yun's charity didn't accept outside donations, many of his fans, upon discovering that his company had just launched two games, flocked to download Honor of Kings or buy keys for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. They clamored, "If you won't take our donations, then earn more from us so you can donate more later!"

On January 2nd alone, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds sold 100,000 keys in the Huaxia District. And the release price for the game was 98 Huaxia Coin!

Selling so many copies was unimaginable in Huaxia, a market rampant with piracy and free-to-play games.

Many of the netizens who had initially played the game just to support Wu Yun began spontaneously promoting PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds after trying it.

"This is so much fun! You can choose where you parachute in!"

"Yeah, yeah! You have to scavenge for all your weapon attachments! And there are so many ways to play! I've finally found a game for a camper like me!"

"The circle! The bush wookies! DAMN! Why is it so hard to get a chicken dinner in this game!"

"I highly recommend PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. It's one of the most demanding games I've ever played, both in terms of skill and strategy. From the diverse game modes to the combinations of firearms and attachments, the replayability is incredibly high. Add to that the game's immense freedom, which makes winning first place so unpredictable. You never know who's going to get the chicken dinner until the very last moment!" A major influencer was frantically promoting PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on Weibo, attracting many of his followers to become loyal fans of the game.

In addition to player-driven promotion, major game streaming platforms also began broadcasting the meticulously crafted CG trailer from Kunpeng Games. This short film, comparable to a movie scene, also drew in a number of fans.

Moreover, more and more streamers began to embrace PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, showcasing its various gameplay styles to their audiences.

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds became famous because of Wu Yun, but its diverse gameplay and strong player experience earned it the love of a growing audience.

The explosive popularity of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds made players of other Shooting or battle royale games consider switching sides.

This was especially true for the many H1Z1 players considering a move to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. However, the 98-coin price tag initially deterred many players accustomed to free-to-play games.

Susan's appearance appealed to the tastes of many otaku, so her follower count had been on a steady rise ever since she started streaming.

Susan was now a relatively well-known streamer in the gaming section. When netizens asked if spending money on PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was worth it, she said something that won everyone's approval: "You guys are always thinking about free-to-play games! But look at Tencent's free games like CF and Underground City. How many of you have spent no less than 98 Huaxia Coin on them?"

"Today's free games are all a bait-and-switch! There's no such thing as a free lunch; you're the ones being fleeced and you're still helping them count the money!"

"At least I think PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is fair. Besides that 98-coin fee, playing the game is all about skill and awareness. You don't have to worry about being cannon fodder for some whale. Just think about those free games—the difference between an account a whale spends money on and your account... I won't say more. Just watch my stream!"

With the promotion from numerous streamers, downloads for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds gradually expanded beyond the streaming community.

The massive sales of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds made Ling Yi and Lu Changsheng grin from ear to ear. They remarked that at this rate, the company would recoup its entire investment in just two or three days!

Meanwhile, over at Galaxy Network, Wang Chao and Qi Fei were also laughing excitedly in their office.

Compared to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Honor of Kings was more like a noble born with a silver spoon in its mouth.

As the saying goes, it's nice and cool in the shade of a big tree. Relying on Tencent's huge League of Legends player base and the vast user pool of WeChat and QQ, Honor of Kings was sought after by countless LOL players the moment it launched.

As the news of Wu Yun's viral fame continued to spread, it further pushed Honor of Kings's reach beyond the League of Legends community, and a huge wave of mobile game enthusiasts got hooked!

In the two days of January 1st and January 2nd, the number of registered users for Honor of Kings broke 500,000 and was sprinting toward the one million mark!

Thanks to the massive number of League of Legends players, upon discovering a mobile game that let them battle anytime, anywhere, many players began spontaneously promoting it and pulling their friends in.

It was as if you were behind the times if you hadn't downloaded Honor of Kings.

Since it was still the New Year's Day holiday, you could see young people everywhere holding their phones horizontally and playing games.

"Welcome to Honor of Kings. All troops, attack!" Similar classic lines could be heard everywhere, attracting a large wave of passersby.

The explosive popularity of Honor of Kings greatly excited Li Chaohui from Tencent's investment and acquisitions department. This was the first investment he had made since taking his position, and he believed Honor of Kings would achieve even greater success in the future.

All in all, Tencent was now just waiting to collect the profits. The only regret was that Wu Yun hadn't agreed to let Tencent act as the publisher for Honor of Kings. Otherwise, with Tencent's full promotional power, the game's results might have been even better.

Although Wu Yun's matter was being hyped up, it couldn't compare to the public's attention on the incident itself.

After various investigations to assign accountability, the several main individuals responsible received their due punishment.

In the office of a high-ranking leader of a certain department, Liu Song, a man with salt-and-pepper hair, looked at the report in his hands with deep emotion. Across the desk, a police officer in uniform said with a look of relief, "Director Liu! It's a good thing we had Wu Yun's video as evidence this time. That's how we avoided being held accountable."

"Indeed! Once this storm passes, I'll have to properly thank this young President Wu!" Liu Song leaned back in his chair with a thoughtful expression, when suddenly he remembered something. "Old Tang, didn't I hear last time that Li Bin and his city management team are preparing to address the chaos caused by shared bikes!?"

"Yes!" Old Tang nodded, instantly understanding Liu Song's intention. "Director Liu, you mean leak the news to Wu Yun? But hasn't this matter just been brought up?! Won't that make things difficult for Li Bin and his team?"

Liu Song smiled and waved his hand. "How could it! I'm just returning a favor. I'll help Wu Yun arrange a meeting with Li Bin! This way, their Little Red Car company can cooperate with the relevant departments' rectification efforts and reduce their losses!"

"Alright! It's a happy decision, then! You go help me set up a meeting with that old rascal Li Bin! I'll contact Wu Yun, and we can all get together for a casual meal!"

"Alright! No problem!" Old Tang snatched his cap from the desk and walked out of the office.
