Chapter 81 - Telling Tall Tales (1/2)

Chen Mo said, “About that, you know that I Am MT is completely free right? You can continue playing without spending a single cent, all the way until the game goes down, right?”

Han Lu nodded after some thought.

“It’s a free game, so why would the players spend so much money? In reality, I’m a transmigrator, I can control the minds of the players using this game, making them spend money in the game completely willingly.”

Han Lu was visibly confused.

The atmosphere was very thick.

Chen Mo broke the silence with a laugh, “Sorry, that joke was a bit too dry.”

Han Lu wiped the sweat of her forehead, “Don’t worry, you were a bit too serious when you delivered the joke, so I thought you were being serious.”

“Obviously I cannot be a transmigrator, nor can I control the minds of the players right? Therefore there can only be one reason why the players spend so much money.

“That’s because they discovered their passion for the game. They felt the sincerity I was trying to communicate through the game, which is why they are so willing to pay for in-app purchases in order to support me. I hope I can make more, better games in the future.

“Therefore, I will never forget the love given to me from the fans and I will not be complacent with this for a single moment. I will make more better games in the future to repay all the love from the fans.”

The corner of Han Lu’s mouth twitched upon hearing that, “Right, if I remember correctly, you stated that you were taking a break at the start of the interview?”

Chen Mo nodded, “That’s right, but I will always remember the love from the fans in my heart.

Han Lu was starting to go crazy. It’s crazy how this person can remain so claim telling all these tall tales!

It feels like that nothing productive can come from this!

But since she was already here, Han Lu didn’t have any other choice but to continue on.

“In order to hype up I Am MT, you invested some money into making the animated series by the same name, and even introduced a website ‘World of Azeroth’ to introduce the fans to the rich world.

“However, there wasn’t much of the aforementioned content in the game. Was this because of the limitations from the type of game it was? Or did you plan to use the world view just to draw in the interest of the players.”

“That’s a secret,” said Chen Mo, “You guys will have to wait and see.”

“That means that you have plans to continue exploring all that Azeroth has to offer?” asked Han Lu.

Chen Mo replied, “I didn’t guarantee that. I said it’s a secret that everybody can look forward to.”

The interview had lasted almost two hours. At the end of it Han Lu felt that her thoughts were completely muddled. Luckily she recorded the entire conversation in addition to making quick notes.

Feeling that there was nothing else to be gained, Han Lu decided to leave.

“Thanks for giving up your time,” said Han Lu.

Chen Mo waved his hand, “Don’t worry about it. Thanks for helping my thoughts reach the fans, allowing them to feel my passion towards games as well as my sincerity to them.”

Han Lu could only manage a “Good bye” after that.

Han Lu felt dizzy as she left Chen Mo’s experience store.

What was going on, feels like I was hustled…

Before she got here, the editor-in-chief repeatedly reminded Han Lu to reveal the secrets behind I Am MT, such as secret techniques to profiting from a free game, or Chen Mo’s creativity. These were points that would attract the attention of many.
