One morning, an entire internet company’s office building wakes up in the cultivation world.
Product manager Xu Jie looks out the window at the sword immortals and feels his professional instincts kick in:
“Clear user profiles, clear needs, a path to monetization… Uh, let’s focus on staying alive first.”
HR starts sending job offers to cultivators.
The tech team tries to recreate the Industrial Revolution.
The operations team is busy building private traffic channels for martial heroes.
The marketing director spends every day figuring out how to turn flying swords into luxury goods.
The head of the Qingyun Sect says, “These people have no cultivation. They’re no threat.”
Three months later…
The sect leader stares at the OKR evaluation form in his hands, lost in thought.
The Demon Cult leader clutches an equity incentive agreement, tears streaming down his face.
Independent cultivators line up for HR interviews.
And Xu Jie stands atop the office building, gazing at the Demon Cult army in the distance. He opens his PowerPoint and puts on the standard internet-industry smile.
“Fellow cultivators, would you be interested in hearing about ‘cutting costs and boosting efficiency’?”
