"Hi everyone, Travelers, welcome back."
Returning to the tea party scene, chibi Ganyu greeted the audience in front of the screen.
"To be honest, I thought we would see a scene in the PV where Zhongli buys something without bringing money and then waits for Jun Bai to pay. But there wasn't any." Chibi Ganyu's tone was full of regret.
Chibi Zhongli spoke in the same tone Zhongli used in the game: "From the perspective of ordinary rationality, this matter doesn't have much to do with the plot."
"But everyone loves to watch it." Chibi Jun Bai said.
"Hahahaha." ×3
After laughing, chibi Paimon said: "Speaking of which, everyone in the PV looks so cool. It feels like watching the theatrical version of an isekai anime."
"Especially Jun Bai. From that back view onward, he has maintained full handsomeness the whole time. From the PV and character showcase, it looks like he has two forms, right? Right?"
The on-site scene deduced by the system using big data naturally felt real. The Jun Bai in Teyvat thought to himself.
Chibi Jun Bai: "Yes, regarding this point, it will be mentioned in the later character introduction."
"I already asked the production team. They said they will fully implement Jun Bai's second form into the game exactly as shown."
[Now the pressure is on the production team.]
[It's great that it can be implemented. I really like that armored outfit in Jun Bai's illustration.]
[This game really has all kinds of fans. Last time I saw someone simping for Sweet Flower, and now there's actually someone simping for armored outfits.]
"Personal supervision from the boss himself."
Chibi Ganyu laughed.
"Speaking of Jun Bai's second form, there's one thing I'm quite curious about. Who is the person fighting Jun Bai at the end of the PV?" Chibi Ganyu asked.
"The color looks like Electro, but it doesn't look like the normal bright purple of Electro. It feels a bit similar to the Abyss Herald from the previous main storyline." Chibi Zhongli analyzed.
"It couldn't be that the Abyss is the mastermind behind the scenes again, right? How about we contact the Abyss Prince right now to ask about the situation?" Chibi Paimon offered a reliable suggestion.
"Eh, wait a minute. Isn't there one person who hasn't said anything since the character showcase?" Chibi Jun Bai noticed a key point.
Chibi Lumine: "..."
"Yeah, Bao Bao, Bao Bao, come back to us."
Chibi Lumine: "Ah? Oh!"
Chibi Paimon: "So serious. What are you thinking about?"
Chibi Lumine: "Hehe, wasn't there a purple-haired twin-tailed girl who flashed by in the PV just now? I was wondering when she would enter the gacha pool."
[Actually I also want to know the answer to this question.]
[Not only did I notice she has purple twin tails, I also noticed she's wearing black stockings. (σ≧︎▽︎≦︎)σ.]
[My new wife has appeared. I refuse to stay stagnant here any longer!]
[Girl supremacy!]
Chibi Jun Bai: "..."
This parallel world's Bao Bao, could she have a personality similar to the fan-created Lumine?
After another round of playful banter, they finally moved on to the main topic.
Chibi Ganyu: "Today's Liyue Elegant Gathering will be divided into four parts to introduce all the content of version 1.1: new storyline, new events, new characters, and new optimizations."
With the active cooperation of the other four, chibi Ganyu quickly went through the new storyline, along with one major event and four minor events in version 1.1.
Just as chibi Ganyu was about to start the new character introduction segment, chibi Jun Bai seized the opportunity and interrupted her:
"Sorry, Teacher Su Su, may I make a temporary announcement?"
"Sure, Boss. No problem, Boss." Chibi Ganyu agreed very readily.
The other three didn't find anything wrong with it either.
Jun Bai couldn't help but sigh. The board member identity given by the system was really convenient.
"Just now, Teacher Su Su introduced all the events originally planned for version 1.1 to the Travelers. But actually, just one week ago, I notified the production team to prepare a brand new major event on short notice."
[Production team is so busy. They have to do double-form Jun Bai and rush a new major event.]
[Production team: Boss, thank you. Having you is our blessing.]
Chibi Paimon: "Won't the production team complain about the sudden overtime?"
Chibi Jun Bai: "I gave them five times the overtime pay. It seems like they don't have any dissatisfaction at all."
[Five times? Too conscientious!]
[I now believe that Brother Bai really directly inherited the family business. There's not a single trace of a capitalist here.]
[If my boss had even half of Brother Bai's conscience, I could treat the company like my own home!]
Chibi Zhongli: "Five times?"
Chibi Paimon: "May I ask if there's anywhere we can help, Boss? Overtime pay or no overtime pay doesn't matter. We just want to share some of your burden."
Chibi Jun Bai: "Then I'll just redistribute your overtime pay to others."
"Good! Boss is wise." ×3
Chibi Paimon: "Boss, I was joking! Please don't!"
Chibi Jun Bai: "Alright, no more joking. Now let me introduce to everyone the major event I asked the production team to prepare on short notice."
With that, mini flaming wings grew behind chibi Jun Bai. He flew to the showcase page, pulled it downward, and the event page appeared on the screen.
The background was Jun Bai with flaming wings spread and a smile on his face. In his palm was a mini version of Fengdeng Lou. At the bottom of the page, Lumine was performing a big-fire stir-fry, while Paimon, wearing an apron, cheered from the side.
"After the people of Liyue joined hands to suppress the god Osial, Liyue Harbor began to rebuild from the ruins. It was at this time that Millelith Marshal Jun Bai found the Traveler and Paimon."
"If one were to ask why the Marshal was looking for the Traveler, it turns out that Fengdeng Lou from the Guili Assembly plans to open a branch store in Liyue Harbor, but they have not been able to find a suitable manager for the time being.
"Thus, Fengdeng Lou's regular customer Jun Bai decided to hire the Traveler as the temporary manager."
"—That is, the major event, Prosperous Fengdeng Road."
[Fengdeng Lou opening a branch store has something to do with Jun Bai?]
[Very reasonable. According to Bonanus's wife, Jun Bai was already a guest there right after Fengdeng Lou first opened.]
[Millennia-level regular customer. Even if he's not the owner, it's basically the same. It's normal for the owner to take care of his own business.]
"Then I wonder what kind of work this temporary manager has to do?" Chibi Lumine turned into the straight man feeder.
Chibi Jun Bai crossed his arms: "Manpower planning, customer attraction, receiving distinguished guests. The workload can be said to be quite heavy."
"However, Jun Bai will not treat anyone who works for him unfairly, especially the Traveler who has a good relationship with him and made important contributions in the Osial incident."
"Therefore, the rewards for this major event are—"
