The Rise of Otaku

Chapter 112 First Appearance

Chapter 112 First Appearance

Almost all the Star Light City’s management companies were here. They could not help not to come here. A perfect newcomer was born, and no one had signed her up yet, no matter what, they had to try their lucks here. But there were also some, that were just curious about Luhua Village. Yesterday, it was still an unknown little village. Today, it was well known all over the world. This world was truly miraculous.

Zhou Yu was also startled by it. He didn’t expect that the news of the ACG world could be spread so fast, that shortly after Little Muli had just revealed her attributes, some agents already arrived at Luhua village. And before Zhou Yu even talked, some people already started bidding.

Poor little Niannian was unemployed for a long time after his fostering period. And when a company finally wanted to sign him up, it was a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy. And later on, the company Beidou only offered 5000 Moe Coins to sign him up. Little Muli, however, was surrounded by buyers just after she revealed her attributes, and the price had already climbed to 100,000 Moe Coins, which scared Zhou Yu a lot.

100,000! It seemed that the price would continue to rise, which was so freaking scary! Although it cost about 5,000 Moe Coins to raise Little Muli, it was 20 times the profit. No wonder it would take him one year to get an idol seed. It was faster than robbing a bank.

What could 100,000 Moe coins do? It would be no problem for him to build all the buildings, and there might be some spare coins to upgrade some of the buildings. Luhua Village would immediately surpass the level of a newbie village.

Just thinking about it, it would make Zhou Yu excited.

However, Zhou Yu would just think about it, he did not intend to let little Muli work outside. When little Niannian was born, Zhou Yu was still very poor, and he was unable to make any animation, movies and so on. He could only let little Niannian go out to work.

Now was different, with the animation base, director Yang Kuai, and the young cameraman Qi Yulin, why let Little Muli leave him? Besides, wasn’t it every Otaku’s greatest dream to build an Idol girl group by themselves?

So, no matter how much the price would be, little Muli would not leave. It was just 100,000 Moe Coins. If he did daily quests every day, coupled with the revenue of the pub, he would be able to receive about 5,000 Moe Coins every month. So if he saved those coins without spending on any other activities, it would take him about 20 months.

Hmmm, about 2 years.

More and more people began to show up. Clearly, they were just tiny people, but it was so crowded in the area around the portal, that it was like an overcrowded Railway Station. And why did those agents brought bodyguards with them? Moreover, the bigger the companies were, the more bodyguards they brought with hem, it was like the Mafias meeting for a territory negotiation.

There was no organizational discipline at all.

If it continued like this, they would destroy Mini Luhua Village. Therefore, Zhou Yu arranged the original empty conference room as a negotiation site.

Some time ago, the press conference of the “Fruit Pirates” was held here, so the place was absolutely big enough to hold all of them. Everyone, including the old dragon King, all came to help. They acted as traffic police officers to direct people to the conference room and finally avoided an overpopulation crisis.

In addition to the agents of the management companies, there were also many journalists with all kinds of cameras. The most surprising thing was, that Zhou Yu originally disliked media, but he did not seem to dislike those tiny journalists of the ACG world.

But not disliking them, did not mean that he would answer all the questions. Who knows how long it would take if he answered everyone’s questions one by one. Therefore, he just wanted to have a meeting to deal with all the questions in one go.

In the process of moving the crowd to the meeting room, Zhou Yu also saw Xia Huan and little Niannian. Unfortunately, the area was so crowded that they did not have a chance to greet each other. He could only wait until the end of the meeting. Poor Beidou was still too weak, even the ordinary management companies could push them aside, let alone the old rival company Nandou,

Facing such a large group of people, even if they were the people of the ACG world, Zhou Yu still felt slightly nervous. Although normally guests would not act strangely in the host’s place. But now, he lacked an imposing manner. And because it happened all of sudden, he didn’t prepare any speeches. What if there were unexpected situations?

The rules of the ACG world were quite different from those of the real world. This could be seen from the last time, that Nandou hired a spy to delay Beidou’s filming schedule. It seemed that this kind of competition method was still legal, just like it was reasonable to use some disruptive items against opponents when playing games.

As a result, the meeting room was still a little chaotic.

After all, those management companies hated each other a lot. Therefore, for a while, people were casting cards like “mute card”, “laxative perfume card”, “reverse card” and “Pot of Greed” etc, constantly.

And the bright lighting effects were triggered all the time as if there were some fireworks on the ground. Those items were aimed at those agents, but whenever the items were cast at them, the black-suited guys next to those agents would come out to block the cards for them.

Zhou Yu finally understood why those people needed so many bodyguards. It was not that they were scared of being robbed. They wanted to use them as shields. Poor Xia Huan only had two bodyguards. But they were still able to survive at this moment. It seemed like they were very competent.

God Dammnit! Some people even used the “stink bomb card” to drive people away. Fortunately, little Muli had not come out yet. Otherwise, he did not know what the meeting room would become.

Zhou Yu knocked on the table and shouted for silence. However, they all ignored him. It seemed like no one was able to stop them.

At this time, the chubby third dragon Prince finally unleashed his power. As he took out his treasure bowl, many minions flew out of the treasure bowl, forming two straight lines on both sides of the meeting room, having all the people surrounded. The place instantly became very quiet, and the mini people immediately started to behave themselves.

‘The little chubby guy truly deserves to be called the Dragon Prince, I’ll reward him one additional dish tonight!’

Finally, the place was under control. So Zhou Yu asked Firefly to get little Muli. She was a star after all. She would have to see the media eventually. With Firefly this bounty hunter, no one dared to cause any more troubles. They all looked at little Muli obediently to confirm whether the abnormal attributes were real or not.

“Holy shit, appearance 93; singing 85; dancing 88; acting 100; variety 90, special skill: Acting Queen, the rumors are true!”

“It’s scientifically impossible! How come she didn’t have any negative effects!”

“Her attributes are perfect, and there are three blank skills slots, which can equip additional skills. Oh my god, she is clearly the chosen one!”

“120,000! I will pay 120,000 Moe Coins!”

Before Zhou Yu spoke, people once again began to shout their prices, fearing that she might be signed up by other companies. After all, it was extremely rare to have such attributes. As long as they were still management companies, they would want her.

Some of the weaker companies sighed helplessly, after hearing the price of 150,000 Moe Coins, while some of the big companies continued to wait and see.

‘It’s not an auction, I have not even said anything yet, why you guys started to shout prices?’

It was little Muli’s first appearance after all. Seeing so many people, she was still a bit shy. Hiding in her father’s pocket, she was unwilling to come out again. As Zhou Yu tapped the table again, the minions on the side immediately shouted “Quiet!” simultaneously. Then the whole conference room finally fell silent again.

“Thank you all for coming here, but my little Muli has no intention to sign a contract with any companies at the moment. She will be the first exclusive actor in Luhua Village.”

Just one sentence, all the agents were stunned, including Xia Huan from Beidou and Zhang Quan of Nandou.
