The Rise of Otaku Chapter 173 - Fiasco

Chapter 173 Fiasco

Edited by Esperanza

Boys always have a dream of chivalry, Zhou Yu also fantasized about the imposing manner of knights when they saved other people from distress, but in real life, not everyone has this kind of courage. At least, Zhou Yu never thought of himself as a man of courage. He had never done anything chivalrous that was worthy of remembering since he was a child, but today this seemed to overturn his perception of himself.

If it was from the physical quality, Zhou Yu’s physical ability indeed was already not bad, after all, he was exercising every day, and there were all kinds of actual combat experience, even if there was no brain energy value, he would be able to learn something more or less. And the “enemy” was also very weak, just a malnutrition hardcore Otaku, who had been staying home for a long time, any people at the same age group as him, would be able to defeat him easily.

It was a small matter, but for Zhou Yu, it meant a lot.

After Zhou Yu was dazed for a moment, the patrol heard the commotion and ran over, and that Otaku also slowly got up from the ground, however, he was still unwilling to give up, wanting to continue to attack Zhou Yu.

But this time, Zhou Yu did not fight back, this guy’s fist was soft and weak, hitting his body was like ma.s.saging him. But he thought in his mind that, if he didn’t get the eyes of the ACG world, he would probably look like this Otaku now.

Security guards soon removed the hardcore Otaku, and the commotion subsided. And little Rat was walking towards him with two eyes shining with excitement, “brother Yu, I didn’t know that you knew Kungfu! That move earlier was awesome!”

Although it was only about defeating an Otaku, whose power level was less than 0.5, being admired by children was still a great feeling. Whenever he was happy, he would like to share it with other people, so he took the children to the ice cream shop near the beach, buying everyone an ice-cream.

When Zhou Fu heard this, he looked incredulous. Zhou Yu had a fight? That Zhou Yu had a fight with other people and defeated the other guy?

The Security guard leader Zhou Shanfeng was a burly veteran, he questioned the party involved in detail and then also got some information from the tourists at the scene, then he recreated the scene at that time, “yes, at that time, that tourist saw the little boss and immediately became excited. He picked up a nearby mop and charged at the little boss. And then the little boss quickly counterattacked, knocking the excited tourist to the ground very skillfully.”

At this point, Zhou Fu felt even more incredible. Zhou Shanfeng’s close combat skill was not weak, if he said that someone did it skillfully, that meant that person really did it very well.

Zhou Yu knew some fighting techniques?

First, he inexplicably had a good cooking skill, the food he cooked, even if it was the chubby chef Li, he was willing to admit defeat, and now a fighting skill? Moreover, he had never seen him doing any kind of exercise.

“Have you ever taught anything to boy Yu?”

“No, we usually exercise in the boxing room, the little boss has never been there before.”

This was so bizarre. It was already strange enough that he was able to learn how to cook through a game he made, but now with fighting skills, how could anyone learn it by simply watching other people doing it? Otherwise, all the Otakus would be able to fight against heaven.

Puzzled, he gave up digging deeper and asked about the attacker “why did the tourist attack boy Yu? Were there any conflicts in the past, or is there something wrong with his head.”

“Er… he is a bit incoherent indeed, saying that the little boss imprisoned a person called Muli, he is here to save her. Do you want to talk to older w.a.n.g at the police station and ask him to take him away?”

When Zhou Fu heard this, he couldn’t help it anymore, but spit out a mouthful of tea. There was really someone, who could not differentiate what was real and what was not. If Muli was really in the amus.e.m.e.nt park, how could no one see her? Besides, Zhou Yu was always wandering around in the amus.e.m.e.nt park day and night, and he was always alone, no one had ever seen him with any woman.

“Sigh, just let the man go, but from now on, send someone to follow boy Yu, lest anything happen again.”

It was said that the culprit of revealing the whereabouts of Muli was actually Zhou Fu, so he was also a little guilty. But who would have thought that fans would be so crazy? At the same time, he was also a little curious, he was the manager of the amus.e.m.e.nt park, although he would not be able to know everything that happened inside the park, but if a girl was brought in by Zhou Yu, and was even brought into the fantasy city, how come he would not know anything about it.

But Muli indeed appeared as if she came out of the thin air, and disappeared without a trace after the event. a.s.sociating with other various mysterious phenomena on Zhou Yu, it really gave Zhou Fu a feeling that there was something hidden in the amus.e.m.e.nt park. However, the amus.e.m.e.nt park’s construction was supervised by him, it could be said that he had walked through every inch of land here, how could there be any secret?

It really didn’t make sense.

The person that was arranged to stay with Zhou Yu was Zhou Yi. He was a young man that was about the same age as Zhou Yu, but he was a very quiet young man, almost the same as how Zhou Yu used to be. Perhaps it was because of this type of personality, he was arranged to stay with Zhou Yu, at least, he would not make Zhou Yu feel annoyed.

Whenever they went to a place where there were a lot of tourists, Zhou Yi would help Zhou Yu to block other people in case they b.u.mp into him, and when there were only a few or none, he would stay far away from him.

Zhou Yu was very satisfied with this.

Since there had already been strange attacks, it was hard to say no to Zhou Fu’s bodyguard arrangement, but having a bodyguard always stick around him was quite annoying, so a bodyguard like this, who knew how to keep his distance was the best. Not only would he be able to help him block some unnecessary trouble, but he would also leave some personal s.p.a.ce to him.

……

“Fun Recipes” had been on the market for some time, but the hype has fallen short of expectations. As of today, the domestic sales of the game, both the digital copies and the physical copies, were just slightly over 10,000 copies.

If it was a normal game, although this sale was not good, it also would not be a loss. It’s just that comparing the advertising fees that the Otaku Gaming portal had invested in, it was a total loss.

The reason for the failure was also very simple, the concept was too new. The relation between housewife and game, it was really very hard to establish at the moment. Whenever those two nouns appeared together, the first thing that appeared in countless Otakus’ minds were those heartbroken memories of their mothers hiding their gaming consoles!

Although Gao Shu had tried his best, the marketing team had also tried everything they could think of, they still couldn’t make everyone accept this concept overnight.

“Fun Recipes” was facing a fiasco, but Zhou Yu didn’t have any pressure, because this game was only made to practice his cooking skills, he did not have any intention to make money from this game. It was just that when Zhou Fu saw it, he gave it to Gao Shu immediately. And Zhou Yu also didn’t know what Otaku Gaming portal was thinking, not only did they really release it, but they also spent an unprecedented amount of advertis.e.m.e.nt fees in it. They even made the game the most searched term on the internet for a while.

At the very least, Zhou Yu was just a developer. Although the operation and the marketing were all done by the Otaku Gaming portal, they didn’t take any less profit. Why did they have to make it so big? Anyway, Zhou Yu couldn’t understand it.

All he was wondering now, was that with such a fiasco, would Gao Shu still keep his smiling face?
