“Olivia, regarding Top Three, if we upgrade using our game engine and incorporate some of the plans you mentioned, can you complete it?” Finn Lewis was indifferent to the emotions Olivia expressed in her words. They weren’t truly her emotions, but a type of emotional simulation system. Zero and Finn had a discussion about this system, and Finn had even expended extra points for it.

“It’s simple. The game already has the relevant source code. I can even optimize the game, and it will likely take a maximum of two weeks to complete the upgrade and incorporate balanced calculations.” Olivia gave an answer that surprised Finn pleasantly.

“So soon?!” Finn was delighted. He knew how difficult it was to develop a game. Didn’t it take Blizzard a decade to produce Monster World? The process from initial planning to final completion of an online game alone took nearly ten years, but Olivia claimed now it would only take two weeks. Could this be compared?

“Of course, the relevant data already has a prototype. It just needs to finalize the upgrade. This isn’t difficult. You can’t compare my work efficiency with a human’s.” Olivia confidently replied.

“Alright, then I’ll leave this task to you. How soon can you bring out a promotional video?” Finn thought for a moment, then quickly asked.

If the game can be finished in two weeks, a promotional video should be made first. After all, the new game would definitely need promotional material.

“Sorry, this can only be done after the game is complete. I can produce a promotional video within three hours after the game is finished.” Olivia responded concisely.

“Alright, that’s quick enough. Then I’ll leave this to you. The source code for Top Three, do you need it?” Finn thought, after all, he was now the boss of the company. Getting the source code wasn’t a difficult task, even though Olivia had already cracked it previously.

“No need, I already have it. In addition, according to our plan, the game content is estimated to expand by about 165%. With so much new content, it probably won’t be much different from a new game. What’s your suggestion for the previous version of the game?” Olivia asked.

“Merge it all into one server.” Finn thought for a moment. That was about all he could manage. Upgrading the game is one thing, but when the game content is to be expanded 1.6 times, including the map area and everything else expanded so much, it’s no different from a new game.

“Right, I’ll provide a detailed plan. In addition, we’ll need servers. You might have to exchange 8 to 10 Photon TI computers.” Olivia spoke again.

“I understand.” Finn was a little distressed. A Photon TI computer costs 9000 points, ten would cost 90,000; his bonus of 100,000 had just disappeared like that.

But considering the potential massive revenue from the game, this investment was worth it. To reap the harvest, you have to sow first.

After hanging up with Olivia, Finn went straight back to the room he had left earlier. When he told Yuri Johnson about his conversation with Olivia, Yuri was astonished. Just half a month to release a brand new game? And it’s an upgrade of Top Three with 1.7 times the original content. By level comparisons, it’s like upgrading a level 50 game straight to level 125.

Obviously, it’s not as simple as just the game level. However, none of that is important. What is significant is the half a month duration! How powerful is the team behind Finn to achieve this? Or did they start working on this before joining MN? Either way, the working speed is terrifying.

But now Finn is the boss of WY; these don’t matter anymore. For Yuri, the quicker, the better. Everyone wants to speed up, start selling the game early, and make a profit.

“Moreover, don’t worry about data balance. We have a system that calculates perfectly balanced game data, no discrepancies whatsoever. You can rest assured.” Finn stated categorically. In fact, the game engine is a kind of data balancing system, like calculating game light effects, simulating sunlight, etc.

All these are produced by the game engine. But now that there’s an even more robust system, Finn naturally selects the best. Plus with Olivia, it would probably be hard to find any bugs.

After discussing all the aspects with Yuri, he genuinely started admiring Finn. Even though Finn’s character seems a bit… well… off (like, who buys a gaming company because of a game dispute?), but Finn’s knowledge is undoubtedly of a top-notch level.

Yuri could tell from their discussions. Regarding the personality issues, who knows if Finn was joking or really serious. Yuri felt that although Finn joined WY because of his game engine, which seems like a more reasonable explanation, the first, unconvincing reason seems more probable to him.

“Now, there’s one last thing left to do.” Finn grinned, snapped his fingers and said.

“What’s left?” Yuri asked curiously.

“We need a spokesperson for our game. Didn’t Mr. Johnson always do it like that, in the past?” Finn teased.

“Oh, that’s possible. We can select one from the emerging stars domestically, someone with a great persona.” Yuri nodded, thinking that both Top Three and Ton Two had chosen spokespersons in the past. who weren’t even famous then-

“I’ve already chosen someone.” Finn straightforwardly said.

“Oh? Who is it?” Yuri showed no surprise. He knew that if Finn brought up this issue, he would definitely have a strategy for it.

“Kay Lee.” Finn replied with a smile.

Yuri was dumbfounded for a moment; then he asked, laughing and crying at the same time, “I mean, Director Lewis, you’re not deliberately trying to torture me, right? You must know what kind of trouble Kay Lee is dealing with right now, right?”

Although Yuri worked in the gaming industry, WY was a major website portal. How could he not know about Kay Lee’s issues? As she had attracted so much trouble, it was no secret within the circle that the sole heir to Blackfield Group, Bryski Miller, was attracted to Kay Lee. But since the feelings were mutual, Blackfield Group had used its power to make things difficult for Kay Lee..
