After hanging up the phone!

Shen Miaomiao let out a long sigh!

Done!

All sales revenue will be donated!

This way, she could maximize the rebates from charitable donations!

After hanging up!

Shen Miaomiao reached under her executive chair and found the backrest adjustment lever.

With a click!

The previously fixed reclining angle decreased, and Shen Miaomiao finally sat up straight in her office at the company!

For a long time, her executive chair had been in a fully reclined position because lying back was more comfortable for binge-watching shows or playing with her phone, with her feet propped on the desk—utter bliss.

But now!

Today!

This situation was about to change!

Shen Miaomiao sat up!

She was going to work in her office!

Before starting, Shen Miaomiao tiptoed like a thief to lock her office door.

Can't let anyone know I'm actually working.

Shen Miaomiao thought.

The project team members are all lunatics. If they found out I was working during work hours, who knows what might happen.

Tomorrow, the slogan "If even CEO Shen is working hard, what excuse do we have not to?" might echo through the company.

For safety's sake.

Better lock the door and work in secret.

Thinking this!

Shen Miaomiao opened the project proposal for "To the Moon"...

......

No doubt about it!

The script for "To the Moon" was top-tier.

In Gu Sheng's previous life, this game had won the Best Story award at GameSpot in 2011, beating strong competitors like "Portal 2" and "Catherine" with its exceptional narrative design.

Its emotional impact made countless streamers and players exclaim they couldn't handle it.

And Shen Miaomiao was no exception.

Though unaware of the game's glory in another parallel world, that didn't stop her from being deeply moved by this touching story.

From the intriguing mystery at the beginning to the shocking and touching revelation at the end, everything resonated with her.

Yesterday while reviewing the proposal, she even cried so hard she woke up Old Gu.

According to Old Gu, hearing her wailing outside at 2 AM was downright creepy.

Shen Miaomiao loved this game.

Loved this story.

And loved how it moved her.

Most importantly.

This time, she was aiming for profit.

The more people bought it, the more would be donated, and the greater her rebate!

Thus, under this dual motivation!

Shen Miaomiao went full throttle toward the goal of "Savage Charity"!

Meanwhile!

The CDEA under Jiang Yingcai's leadership wasn't idle either, determined to execute "Savage Promotion" to the fullest!

He wanted to show other participating companies in the charity week—

You didn't want to join? Well, watch this!

This time, regardless of Golden Wind's game scale!

From official media to industry outlets, I'm going all out!

Let me show you why I'm the industry leader!

......

Thus!

One week after the call!

Promotion funds arrived!

A super three-pronged promotion campaign launched by China's largest semi-official non-profit organization, the undisputed "spokesperson" of China's gaming circle!

First Prong!

Gaming media outlets took the stage!

"Charity Week Announces Launch Date! Golden Wind to Participate With Mysterious New Game!"

"Golden Wind to Release Charity Game Next February!"

"Charity Week Rules Updated! Golden Wind Leads the Charge!"

"New Game + Bundle! Golden Wind Bringing Benefits to Players!"

"Returning to PC! Golden Wind's Charity Game to Release on PC Platform"

"..."

Daily Gaming News, China Player News, Weekly Gaming Report, Player Campfire, Black Box Gaming...

News flooded everywhere!

Jiang Yingcai directly bundled "Charity Week" with "Golden Wind's New Game," giving them equal promotion!

Promoting Charity Week meant promoting Golden Wind's new game!

This unprecedented endorsement instantly ignited players' discussion fervor—

'OHHHHHHH—Golden Wind's new game!'

'Holy shit! Golden Wind's going all out! Getting equal promotion as Charity Week?'

'Probably because Golden Wind's bringing a new game for the charity event'

'True, previous charity week bundles were all classic old games—no one ever released new ones'

'Releasing a new game for charity week means losing money—they have to donate a huge chunk of profits, nobody wants that'

'Golden Wind's really doing charity'

'They really are... I'm crying'

'I bet CDEA's crying too—never seen such a straightforward company going all-out on promotion'

'A PC game! Finally! Been waiting for Golden Wind's next PC game—'

'Last time Golden Wind released a PC game was... last time'

'Thanks for the enlightening words that enlightened me'

'Damn it, I can't wait another day this year'

'After New Year? Don't even want to celebrate now...'

'......'

First prong—established hype! Players abuzz!

Next.

Second Prong!

Major game critics, commentators, forum celebrities, and influencers joined in!

"Charity Week is coming! CDEA officially announces February launch! Ten major companies participating! Plus Golden Wind's new game debut!"

"What's a true conscience company? (leans back dramatically) Few companies in China make good games, and even fewer make good games AND do charity—Golden Wind might be the only one..."

"CDEA confirms Charity Week date, ten companies participating, offering bundles of classic games plus Golden Wind's new game support. Tag your buddies to get hyped, follow me for more recommendations~"

"First time seeing a new game for Charity Week! CDEA and Golden Wind announce charity game launching in February! Plus major bundles from other companies—become the Charity King with your friends! I'm GameChacha, follow me~"

"..."

Reviews and promotions swept through the gaming world!

The other nine participating companies were stunned!

Huh?

This promotion is way too biased!

There are ten companies in this charity event!

Only Golden Wind gets named? The rest of us are just "other companies"???

Who knows how much hype and traffic this would bring Golden Wind!

Instantly, competitors burned with envy!

Yiyou faction jealous! XunTeng faction envious!

But!

Whether jealous or resentful, none dared question CDEA.

First, CDEA was the industry leader—nobody wanted to offend them.

Second, they knew exactly why only Golden Wind got named!

Golden Wind was willing to fund a new game for this!

You want the same treatment? Then do the same!

Not willing to? Then shut up...

Second prong—amplified impact! Competitors green with envy!

Now!

The conventional two prongs complete!

Finally!

CDEA's uniquely organizational Third Prong arrived!

This final prong was also news.

Just one piece.

No excessive cheers or loud exclamations.

Just a factual report.

Precise, steady, powerful.

Titled—

"Genuine Efforts to Develop Charity, Actively Explore Industry Progress"

Content—

[Recently, to further implement China's charity development, China Charity Foundation and China Digital Entertainment Association jointly announced the launch date of the "22nd Digital Entertainment Charity Week." Ten leading domestic digital entertainment companies including Golden Wind Games will release charity bundles to support public welfare and industry progress...]

Published in China Daily's digital edition.

Just one piece.

But one piece worth ten!

Explosion!

Once published!

The entire gaming world exploded!

Players were stunned—

'WTFFFFFF Golden Wind? In official media?!'

'This is... China Daily???'

'I love what Golden Wind fans are saying—'

'Huh???'

'No way! Holy shit! What kind of prestige is this?!'

'"Golden Wind" and "Other Companies"'

'Just one name-drop, but getting named by China Daily is insane!'

'Legendary!!! Golden Wind legendary!!!'

'Our Golden Wind's made it big!'

'CDEA's power is insane—'

'Bro... this kind of promotion...?'

'CDEA: My influence exceeds your imagination'

'This is crazy! Is this the power of charity?!'

'Official media shoutout? Just during preparations—if the game sells well and Golden Wind donates big, they might get a dedicated editorial!'

'Hahaha that's too much, dreams are good but respect reality'

'True, too wild—never seen any company get that honor'

'But making China Daily is already heavyweight'

'Definitely'

'......'

Instantly!

The entire player base erupted!

Everyone marveled at CDEA's influence, and even more at Golden Wind being singled out by China's most official media!

Competitors finally realized their mistake—

Oh no! These promotion resources were meant for all participating companies! But only Golden Wind responded to the new initiative!

So!

Now!

Resources meant for ten companies all went to Golden Wind alone!

This might be a 1v9 situation!

But!

By the time they realized, it was too late!

Desperate calls poured in, sweet-talking Jiang Yingcai like he was their godfather.

Jiang Yingcai was ruthless.

Facing these calls, he first hemmed and hawed, acting reluctant.

After enough flattery, he finally waved:

"Sigh... not that I disagree, but the association's already committed to Golden Wind, resources are allocated, follow-up promotions planned... maybe next year..."

A week makes all the difference.

Don't underestimate Jiang Yingcai.

Jiang Yingcai was ecstatic.

......

Meanwhile, Shen Miaomiao was thrilled too!

Because she benefited the most!

Getting ten companies' worth of resources!

Originally, Shen Miaomiao planned to handle promotions herself during mid-late development.

After all, promotions used company money to enrich her personal funds, and the company had money now.

But!

CDEA stepped up!

Saved her the trouble of arranging promotions herself.

Even better, the promotion budget could be reallocated.

For example—

"Ending song?"

In the apartment, Gu Sheng took the score from Little Nezha, puzzled:

"What ending song?"

"For 'To the Moon'!" Shen Miaomiao said.

"Huh?" Gu Sheng was shocked: "It's a game, not a movie—why an ending song?"

Shen Miaomiao blinked: "What music plays during the credits? My name appears separately—shouldn't there be some ceremony?"

"Wha—"

Gu Sheng couldn't comprehend:

"We already have the theme song 'For River' playing throughout—just keep using that for credits?"

Isn't that how games do it?

But!

Shen Miaomiao shook her head: "No! I want the full package! This is my first game as producer! I want an ending song!"

"Ah..."

Gu Sheng grimaced, shrugging ambiguously while shaking the score:

"Fine, you already have this prepared anyway."

"No lyrics yet,"

Shen Miaomiao pointed at the blanks:

"You write them."

"Damn, you really overestimate me!"

Gu Sheng was stunned:

"I don't have that skill!"

"Just look at the score first..."

Seeing Gu Sheng about to refuse, Shen Miaomiao deployed her acting cute tactics:

"You made the proposal—you can do this. I went through so much trouble to get this score commissioned—just look~"

"Who commissioned it? Wasn't this outsourced?" Gu Sheng asked.

Shen Miaomiao smirked slyly: "Nope, I used my connections to get a professional composer from the music industry."

Whew—

Gu Sheng inhaled sharply.

The chaebol young lady could truly do anything.

Then, he looked at the score.

It was numbered musical notation—while not a music expert, he could read it.

As he scanned, Gu Sheng mentally reconstructed the melody:

"Do... do-si-do-mi-re-mi-so, re-do-re-si, si-do-do-mi-so...?"

Wait a minute?!

This tune... feels familiar?

Humming it again, Gu Sheng confirmed—

This was a song from his past life!

Now this was interesting...

Gu Sheng nodded slowly: "Alright... I'll try. But who's singing this?"

"Secret,"

Shen Miaomiao smiled mysteriously:

"A very special guest, super talented."

Wow—

Gu Sheng marveled inwardly.

Player discussions, media promotions, official endorsements, professional composition, mystery performer...

This is the power of Chief Designer MiiaShen?

This time!

Full throttle!!!
