Chapter 221

Susan regained her composure and responded with a smile, “I’ll ask Mr. Landor. If he agrees, we’ll definitely have a

bonus.

The faces of her team members immediately lit up with excitement.

One of them boldly suggested, “If Mr. Landor disagrees, Director Miller, you should make him kneel on durians at

home.”

“Yeah, yeah, and take a picture of it! I’d love to see Mr. Landor kneeling on durians.” another chimed in.

Someone else added jokingly, “Kneeling on a keyboard would work too!”

The room erupted into cheerful laughter, clearly in high spirits.

Susan, too, couldn’t help but smile along.

Her department, established only a few months ago, had already generated such significant revenue, which was indeed a cause for celebration.

However, the success of “Starry Romance” could be attributed to its pioneering intelligent NPCs and high degree of game freedom. The recent debate on Twitter had also helped catapult the game to peak popularity.

That first week, many players were drawn by novelty, which explained the high revenue.

The real test was whether this momentum could be sustained.

If the revenue dropped significantly in the following week, it would indicate that the game hadn’t truly won over players. On the other hand, maintaining or increasing revenue would confirm its genuine success.

As everyone anxiously awaited the results, the revenue report for the second week arrived.

The person delivering the report was visibly astonished, their mouth agape in disbelief.

“How is it? Did the revenue drop significantly?” Susan asked curiously, glancing at the report.

Then, she too was stunned.

In the second week, the revenue astonishingly doubled to four hundred million dollars.

In just two weeks, the revenue hit a total of six hundred million dollars, shattering the national record for the highest monthly revenue of a game.

So far.
