Chapter 186: The Boss’s Fantasy Card

Oooh! Everything around went suddenly dark, and countless bright spots swiftly floated up. The spots were large and small, floating around.
They seemed to be in the interstellar realm. It was boundless darkness among countless brighter or dimmer stars scattered around the universe like sand in a river, or as though mutually attracting to form clump after clump of strange and fantastic galaxies. Mist-like, colorful nebulae were still more like a dream or a fantasy.
The revolving of the galaxy and the creation and destruction of the stars, along with the diffusion and gradual dissolution of the nebulae, played out in front of everyone's eyes. It brought them to feelings of great mystery while still seeming to hold some kind of order.
”Oh my god! It's beautiful!” screamed some of the female employees.
”Did the boss really make this? It's simply miraculous!” murmured some of the employees absentmindedly. The observation was met with everyone's nearly unanimous agreement. Without a doubt, it was a fine work among fine works. In people's eyes, astronomy had always been full of mystery, and they had never seen such a realistic and magnificent interstellar image.
The first notion to take shape in their minds was how small they were among the stars.
Such lifelike interstellar imagery could never have been produced without proficiency in astronomy, no matter how good he was. Now, the already awed employees were still more awed. If you were to say what had awed them before was Chen Mu's power, this time they were certainly awed by his learning. And, as professionals, they understood how difficult the card was to make. In all of Heaven's Wings, there was absolutely no one who could have made it.
The stars weren't just lifeless objects; they were moving around according to some kind of order and numbered in the tens of millions. That was in addition to the galaxies formed by the stars and the transformations of the nebulae. All of that brought the difficulty of the fantasy card to a hair-raising level.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed there could be such a complex card on Earth. Oh, maybe Rosenberg or Heiner Van Sant could have made one, they thought.
Chen Mu had used his power to establish his authority, but it was a fantasy card that finally overwhelmed those low-grade card masters. The image the employees all had of Chen Mu grew immediately taller. His face, which had looked so fresh and raw to everyone, seemed to have suddenly become inscrutable. Speaking of the star images, Chen Mu really had to thank the low-grade fantasy card club for those. If he hadn't seen them there, he wouldn't have been able to make them.
Following that, the scene changed into the growth of plants. The luxuriant growth in the process from sprout to health infected everyone. On one side, an explanation slowly unfolded, though there was only writing since it wasn't accompanied by a sound card. Just as everyone was entranced by the fascinating world, someone suddenly called out, ”Do you mean to say we're going to make this card?”
Once those words came out, everyone was jolted awake. Then, there was a hubbub.
”Yeah, are we supposed to make this card?”
”Impossible. I reckon that apart from the boss, no one could make it.”
”Anyhow, I can't do it.”

Everyone had something to say, and the scene quickly turned chaotic. Bu Qiangdong got a headache once he saw what was happening. He drew in a long breath and shouted abruptly, ”Everyone shut up for me!”
Everything quieted down. Bu Qiangdong's cool face slowly scanned over everyone. They all had their mouths closed, watching him.
”Is there anyone who doesn't want to do it? Eh? Could it be that you don't want this work anymore?” Bu Qiangdong's voice had a note of coercion to it, and everyone quickly shook their heads. It would be a joke to say they could find work anywhere that paid as well as Heaven's Wings.
Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Bu Qiangdong's expression moderated. ”In truth, I think it's difficult to make as well. But, the boss's temper, ha, ha.” Bu Qiangdong gave a couple of cold chuckles, and some of the group cringed back, thinking back on how the young, new boss didn't seem to have such a good temper.
