Wei Chen thought it over and realized that, perhaps, there might be some truth to it.
He was aware that players did enjoy that sort of thing.
But wouldn’t making such a thing get them banned?
He felt somewhat concerned.
Wu Mu, smiling, shook his head, “Who said you should show it directly? You just create a regular foot massage parlor and then make each masseuse more refined, give them unique character settings—then it wouldn’t be so easily banned.”
Moreover, instead of worrying about getting banned for lewd content, you should be more concerned about whether showing the harsh realities of the lower classes too realistically and directly might get you banned.
That’s a bigger problem.
“As to whether to use it or not, have your boss decide later. For now, just take some photos for reference.”
Wu Mu directed Wei Chen to take photos for reference.
He then followed Wei Chen to a few other parlors to gather more material.
They kept busy until two or three in the afternoon before returning.
As soon as he got back to the company, Wei Chen went to discuss Wu Mu’s suggestions with Jiao Liang.
On Wu Mu’s side, having adequately reminisced about the life of making games and feeling that today’s footage was sufficient, he didn’t fuss any further and resumed his content, lazy life.
Lin Qingyue looked at Wu Mu, comfortably lounging in the boss chair, sipping on Coke poured by Wei Chen, happily playing his game, and couldn’t help but find it somewhat amusing.
How does Wu Mu manage to live so comfortably in any situation and always remain so joyful?
…
“Director Lin, what’s the task for today? I’ve done labor and technical work; am I going to play the boss and start a business today?” Riding the bus to Shen City Hotel, Wu Mu asked Lin Qingyue.
It was already the third day of the show.
After happily idling away yesterday at Mingyu Game and then staying in the nicely furnished dorm the company had provided for him, he was reluctantly seen off by Jiao Liang this morning.
“That’s right, today it is about playing the role of a boss and making money,” Lin Qingyue nodded. Considering the themes of the previous two episodes, she could somewhat guess what today would entail.
“What kind of boss will I be? Will it also be decided by drawing lots?” Wu Mu asked curiously.
“You’ll find out soon enough.”
Soon enough, the two arrived at the Shen City Hotel entrance. They were the earliest, with the other guests yet to arrive.
But, before long, the other participants gradually began to show up.
The moment Wang Xiaotian saw Wu Mu, he broke into loud laughter, “I’m definitely going to win this episode! Yesterday, I earned seven hundred bucks!”
Lu Yao, who had been in a good mood, let out a gasp upon hearing that, “Xiaotian, why did you earn so much money?”
Zhang Haoran and Zhang Lifeng were also looking on, intrigued.
Although everyone’s jobs from the previous day were considerably more respectable than the first day, their wages were mostly around the ten thousand mark.
How come Wang Xiaotian, who seemingly had the least respectable job, managed to make so much?
A daily wage of seven hundred, which amounted to over twenty thousand monthly, was undoubtedly a high salary among ordinary chefs.
Wang Xiaotian grinned proudly, “Yesterday, I partnered with a snack stand owner to sell my homemade fish balls, and then I got a cut of the profits.”
After boasting, as if concerned about his colleague’s performance, he turned to Wu Mu, “Teacher Wu Mu, how did you do yesterday? How much money did you earn?”
Heh, trying to set him up for a boastful slap in the face?
Wu Mu raised his hand, showing two fingers to Xiaotian.
“Two hundred? Hahaha, I’ve won this episode for sure,” Wang Xiaotian laughed heartily.
However, before he could enjoy his laughter, Wu Mu intervened indifferently, “It’s two thousand.”
What?
Wang Xiaotian and Lu Yao were both stunned, then immediately shouted towards Director Lin, “Director, he’s cheating, he must be cheating!”
A daily salary of two thousand?
A monthly income of sixty thousand for a job?
How could that be?
Where in the world could a company employee make that kind of salary?
He must be using his celebrity status to cheat!
Both voiced their protests loudly, to which Lin Qingyue clarified, “Teacher Wu Mu didn’t cheat. He became the chief designer at a game company yesterday, and that salary is reasonable.”
Wang Xiaotian: “???”
Lu Yao: “???”
How was that reasonable?
That seemed even more absurd.
Wu Mu became the chief designer of a game company?
Could you even believe what you were saying?
Lin Qingyue sensed their skepticism and said with a helpless smile, “If I hadn’t witnessed it with my own eyes, I certainly would have been as incredulous as you. But we’ve been there the whole time yesterday, and Teacher Wu Mu honestly didn’t cheat. You’ll see for yourselves when the program airs.”
Really or not, such outrageous content, yet no cheating?
The other guests were full of question marks.
No person in their right mind could associate Wu Mu with the chief designer of a game company.
They were somewhat itching to see for themselves how Wu Mu managed to do it.
But for now, they had to record the show first.
Wang Xiaotian, deflating like a frosted eggplant, muttered, “Then what’s the point of competing today? Wu Mu has earned over twenty-one hundred over two episodes; how can we ever compete with that?”

Indeed, the gap seemed a bit too big.
Even the highest earner among them, himself, had only a bit over eight hundred, not even half of what Wu Mu had.
With such a huge gap, wasn’t the competition already decided?
Lin Qingyue shook her head with a smile, “There’s still a chance for a turnaround for Teacher Xiaotian today. Today’s competition has very special rules.”
“The rule for today’s competition is, no rules.”
“Everyone can use whatever methods they can think of to make money, just as long as it doesn’t involve malicious collusion with others, and there’s only one day. Only the money earned today will count.”
No rules?
Wang Xiaotian listened and his eyes brightened, “Then Director Lin, does that mean I can use my celebrity status, act and appear on shows to make money?”
Lin Qingyue spread her hands, “Sure, as long as you can finish the job today and get the buyer to pay.”
Well, without malicious collusion, it’s virtually impossible to complete a job and get paid in one day.
But even so, the other methods of making money were numerous.
Wang Xiaotian was eager to test his chances, feeling he could really turn the tables today.
However, Wu Mu had an opinion upon hearing this.
“Director Lin, with these rules, all the funds I’ve accumulated over the last two days would have been for nothing. Such a small sum wouldn’t offer any advantage today.”
The production team had naturally considered this issue.
Lin Qingyue explained to Wu Mu, “The money earned today will be divided by a hundred to calculate the clerks’ scores. So, even if you earn ten thousand, it only counts as a hundred.”
That seemed fair enough.
With this calculation method, the money he had accumulated over the past two days amounted to over two hundred thousand.
Wu Mu nodded, finding today’s rules quite interesting.
A celebrity money-making competition was undoubtedly a very appealing topic.
And speaking of which, it fit his personal strengths very well.
In terms of making money, if he used a Performance Card, wouldn’t he effortlessly outshine the others?
Wang Xiaotian and the others, no matter how much they earned, were not talking about making several hundred thousand or millions in a day.
But his Performance Cards were used up; it seemed unnecessary to draw one just for this occasion, didn’t it?
