Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

A lot of chatter following the announcement.

“Huh? Qiu Bin isn’t coming?”

“Why not?”

“I heard it’s a personal reason.”

“Man, I really wanted to listen to his talk, why didn’t he come?”

“It’s pretty funny on the official’s end too to only notify us now.”

“Whatever, there’s a VR game talk next door, let’s listen to that.”

“Geez, I wanted to learn a thing or two about mobile card games seeing how profitable it was this year. That’s too bad.”

Many were preparing to leave the hall.

At this moment, Qiu Jiang made her way to the stage and grabbed the microphone, “Qiu Bin isn’t here, but Chen Mo was. You guys should try and convince him to give the talk, wouldn’t that be better than Qiu Bin?”

Many of the designers chose to stay after hearing Qiu Jiang’s suggestion.

“Chen Mo? The Chen Mo that made Onmyoji? He’s here too?”

“My goodness, his game absolutely destroyed Qiu Bin’s Demon Slayers 2. His talk must be better than Qiu Bin’s!”

“Yeah, I Am MT was made by Chen Mo too. He’s the pioneer of mobile card games.”

“Where’s Chen Mo? Which one’s Chen Mo?”

“I’m not going. Where’s Chen Mo? Get on the stage, Chen Mo!”

Qiu Jiang was really happy with herself as she walked down the stairs before dragging Chen Mo out of his seat, “Go head.”

Chen Mo was speechless, I was supposed to be the one listening to a speech? How come I’m giving the speech now?

I just made fun of your age, did the revenge need to be so vicious?

But when Chen Mo stood up, the audience got real excited clapping.

“Is that really Chen Mo? Clap!”

“I wanna hear too, get him to give a talk!”

Chen Mo was speechless. He didn’t plan on getting on stage, but he couldn’t say no with this much enthusiasm from the audience.

Chen Mo didn’t mind talking about his work either, others might be afraid of his work being copied, but he wasn’t.

Chen Mo unwillingly got onto the stage and said, “Alright, since you guys want to hear, I’ll see what I can do.”

Another round of applause came from the audience, followed by a lot of discussion.

“That’s Chen Mo? He’s so young.”

“He looks like he’s in his mid twenties. He’d only be in the industry for two years if he started immediately after he graduated.”

“This guy is an A-grade videogame designer at this age! We already lost!”

“And his game is making over two hundred million RMB a month!”

“Over two million? That’s last month’s number, it’s probably going to grow this month. With how well Onmyoji was doing, it’ll probably stay at the top of the leaderboards for three months at least!”

“My goodness, is this what a genius looks like?”

“Thank goodness I came today, I gotta take notes.”
