This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 67 - Truly Became
Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Truly Became
Chapter 67 -67: Truly Became
Programmers have always been the butt of jokes and mockery online, but no one can deny the professionalism required in the field.
And celebrities, especially the idol-type celebrities, are often linked in the minds of the public with illiteracy or semi-illiteracy.
These two things are absolutely inconceivable for normal people to think about together.
And now, right before their very eyes, this idol celebrity was writing code… That’s just freaking weird!
Everyone suddenly got the feeling that maybe their education was all for naught.
What the hell, even a middle schooler knows how to code now?
On the edge of the crowd, Lin Qingyue and the others, who were recording the scene with cameras, also had strange expressions on their faces.
Like, seriously, you actually know how to code?
Is there such an unorthodox celebrity like you?
Solving advanced math problems, writing code… What kind of weird stuff are you studying in secret?
A celebrity who doesn’t learn to sing, dance, or rap, but goes off to learn these oddball tricks?
Lin Qingyue truly was shocked.
She never expected such a development.
She couldn’t help but marvel at how brilliant Wu Mu was at creating show effects.
Talk about a prankster, always coming up with fresh stunts that would make viewers’ screens go dark with surprise.
And she was certain, once the show aired, the audience’s comments would absolutely flood the screen.
…
The minesweeper game was small in scope, being a simple demo to test playability, so it required even less code.
After just a little over an hour, Wu Mu had produced a simple working product.
The employees at Mingyu Game Company didn’t even feel like leaving the computer during that hour-plus.
They all gathered behind Wu Mu to monitor his progress, discussing fervently in an attempt to spot any flaws in Wu Mu’s code.
They simply couldn’t believe that Wu Mu, a middle school dropout and celebrity, had the ability to code.
But the more they looked, the more shocked they became.
“Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit, is he for real? How can he write like this? Why do I feel like his skills are even higher than mine?”
“I thought it was just me who felt that way, it’s too concise. When I compare my code to his, mine looks like a pile of crap…”
“Damn it, that idea just now was brilliant, great ingenuity. I never would have thought of implementing it that way.”
“Crap, it was bad enough a middle schooler could code, but writing it better than me?”
One’s programming skill can be discerned by their habits and the level of their code, and it was clear to everyone that Wu Mu was definitely a pro.
The programmers from the surrounding companies were all beginning to feel numb.
Jiao Liang, looking at Wu Mu, had also fallen silent.
Part of a stunt?
He realized he might have become part of the act.
He could never have dreamed that Wu Mu could actually code, and evidently at a high level.
The turn of events was just too bizarre!
A top-tier, fresh-faced idol star who dropped out of middle school was actually a coding mastermind behind the scenes… It had the surreal beauty of a dream not yet shaken off.
When Wu Mu indicated the demo was finished and invited him to check it out, Jiao Liang continued in silence, sitting down at the computer to review and play the game Wu Mu had put together in an hour.
The more he checked, the more he began to question his life.
He had thought that anything made in just an hour would simply be a copy of some casual game demo available on the market.
Even if Wu Mu proved his coding skills, one might still question his game design abilities.
But who would have thought that what Wu Mu created was something completely new?
It was an utterly original game, unlike anything else on the market!
Not only was it original, but the quality was exceptionally high!
The gameplay was unique, the rules ingeniously clever, and the playability was extremely high!
It might not compare with various large-scale single-player games, but in the realm of casual games, it definitely qualified as fine work.
Even if it seemed a bit simple for this day and age, just based on its unique gameplay and rules, it could definitely attract a dedicated following.
A middle school dropout and popular idol star had written a game demo live, and this game demo turned out to be high quality…
Jiao Liang began to wonder if he was out of touch with society, or if the outside world had evolved to a point where just about anyone on the street could make a game?
He fell silent for a while before nodding at Wu Mu, “Welcome to join us at Mingyu Game.”
Without a doubt, Wu Mu had passed the interview.
Although their company didn’t really need a chief designer, as he himself had actually been performing the duties of one.
And even if Wu Mu was good at writing small games, it didn’t necessarily mean he would fit into their company that made independent single-player games.
But Jiao Liang wasn’t stupid. Did he really think that someone would give up being a big star to become a game designer at their company?
It was clearly just for the show, to experience it for a day only.
The show was also to promote their own game, after all.
In such a situation, how could he be so lacking in emotional intelligence to refuse?
After all, the person didn’t break any rules and indeed had the skills.
Speaking for himself, he definitely wouldn’t dare to say he could write a new game demo in an hour.
Jiao Liang discussed salary with Wu Mu, “Let’s set the monthly salary at sixty thousand, and we’ll pay you on a daily basis, two thousand a day, okay?”
A sixty-thousand monthly salary was roughly the average for a small company like theirs.
Wu Mu nodded in agreement.

He had actually become the chief designer of the game company?
Lin Qingyue instructed her camera crew to capture close-ups of everyone present’s expressions.
This scene would be very interesting when the show aired.
Undoubtedly, the most interesting expression was on Wei Chen’s face.
He was indeed an anti-fan of Wu Mu because he was a fan of Mo Mo.
Fans of Mo Mo were pretty much all Wu Mu anti-fans.
Wei Chen had always thought, how could someone despicable enough to collapse a house, a scumbag idol like Wu Mu, deserve to be with someone as good as Little Mo?
He had always looked down on Wu Mu, thinking of him as just a traffic-celebrity that relied on his looks.
Before, he even thought Wu Mu coming in for an interview was only fit to do some receptionist or janitorial work.
But who would have thought the person would end up being his direct boss?
And it was obtained through actual skill.
Wei Chen’s head was spinning.
And what made him even dizzier was still to come.
As soon as Wu Mu took the position of chief designer, he started acting the part.
With a very serious air, he nodded to the onlookers around him, “Everyone, disperse. Go about your business.”
Then he pointed at Wei Chen, “That one, little Chen, go get me a glass of water first, I’m a bit thirsty. Once it’s done, take me to check out my office.”
Are you calling me a dog?
You just got here and you’re already giving me attitude!?
Wei Chen felt like going up and punching the guy!
The other company employees and Jiao Liang were amused, however.
This Wu Mu was easy to handle.
Of course, they didn’t think Wu Mu was really giving Wei Chen attitude; it was clearly for the entertainment value on the show.
Honestly, they now had a favorable impression of Wu Mu.
Originally, they didn’t think much of Wu Mu; programmers typically disliked young, fresh-faced celebrities.
But upon learning Wu Mu knew how to program, and his programming skills weren’t low, their perspective changed immediately.
It was like, our programmers have really made it, that such a big star also learned programming.
Jiao Liang laughed, “There is no spare office in the company. After you get the water, Wei Chen, take President Wu to my office.”
After Wei Chen got the water, he led Wu Mu to the boss’s office.
Wu Mu sat down without hesitation, somewhat reminiscing about the feeling of being a game company boss in his past life.
He lay comfortably in the boss’s chair, reminiscing for a while, not forgetting to settle the score with Lin Qingyue, who had previously looked down on him.
He said to Lin Qingyue, “How about it, now do you believe I can write games, huh? It’s not just hot air. If it weren’t for the fact that being a star makes it easier to earn money, I would have definitely just started a game company.”
Had Wu Mu said this before today, Lin Qingyue would have definitely thought Wu Mu was just boasting.
But now, she had to admit, she really didn’t quite understand the skills Wu Mu possessed.

PS: I’m wondering about everyone’s feelings on the past few chapters. Do you want me to wrap up this part of the story quickly?
