Jinlai | Domineering CEO Simulator

You play as jinlai - an heir(ess) to a massive conglomerate in the fictional country of Toswana. Scheming relatives, millions in cold crypto drives, parties with the movie stars, totally legal lobbying of the politicians and everything else that comes with big numbers in your bank account.

Fight a succession war to gain control of one of the biggest companies in the world - will you remain just as ‘wealthy’ or will you become filthy rich?

Invest in companies, manage them, take over. ‘Optimize’ their workflows, squeeze every penny of profit or be a decent human being.

Curry favor with the powers that be, threaten your competitors, bribe whoever it is you need to bribe. Or, you know, don’t. Remaining an upright and honest citizen is always an option.

Steal your uncle’s fiance for a beneficial marriage, date a movie star living next door, seduce your loyal, slightly older bodyguard, get involved with a single mother (your own mother definitely doesn’t approve), discover something daunting about your casino-owning loan shark friend or (and) sleep around with a bunch of random people.

All ROs are heterosexual.

So I read in some old ask that there is a possibility of having kids. Is this going to be optional or forced? I need to know what I'm getting into. I'm playing a female MC, and if having children becomes necessary, I'm not sure I'll continue playing. I really like this story and the characters, especially the MC. So I hope this is optional, but of course, it's your story, so do what you want.

of course it'd be optional, if it even happens

Chapter 3 is out for public

[jinlai]

Who exactly knows about the kidnapping? Grandfather was mentioned in the flashback, but did both parents know? The sister (not at the time but later on)? Any of the aunts/uncles or friends? The media?

Media, sister, no. Parents, some of the uncles/aunts yes. It was understandably kept quiet (even from extended family) and Xiaoli has always been shielded from these things.

[jinlai]

I remember that long long time ago you answered which ros our mother would approve so based on last ask who will our grandfather approve of (and will it give us some brownie points with grandpa?? as a succession brownie points?)

Probably not any of the ‚working for our mc’ people like bodyguard or teacher…

I suppose Lina and lawyer are on the fence?? Lina as we are going into entertainment and the guy as being a prosecutor is somewhat respectable?? but honestly idk

For male mc defo Yufei cause I think that’s the whole point of stealing her from uncle lmao

And for female will Lu Tian be a the ‚best’ option for grandpa, cause he has the most resources out of them all? or he’s too shady for future president grandson-in-law?

Male: only Yufei. Even the teacher is better for gramps than Lina.

Female: Lawyer and Lu Tian. Hes actually very fond of the latter.

[jinlai]

So with the open marriage option does the other ros could work with it?

Depends on the RO and path (some might have a 'hooking up' path, not sure yet), but, in general, no. It's mostly for being able to get into flings without Yufei causing drama.

[jinlai]

So not a huge deal, but I think I remember getting the ages of Su Wenling, Xu Yufei, Qi Liwei, and quite a few non-ros, so I wondered if I could ask for Lina’s, Lu Tian’s, and Liao Yi’s if that’s not a spoiler?

Answered in an ask above

[jinlai]

How can I start the fling with Liquio. I did two routes, in one mc didn't met Yufei and had the fling option but in the other where Yufei is the fiance I don't have that option

It doesn't depend on Yufei. You need to flirt with her during the club scene (when she offers you to sleep with her 'as a test').

[jinlai]

just a curious mind hah

which RO/dynamic with them is your favourite to write about?

and maybe which path romance is your favourite hahah

For now, probably Lu Tian and Yufei.

[jinlai]

Could we sleep with the RO's first before establishing a relationship?

Depends on the RO.

[jinlai]

You think I wanted this? My life is not like yours, Princess Ji

-

"Thank you so much, Princess Ji, for allowing me to save you half a million.”

This is funny, because before ch2 came out I was wondering if Lu Tian would be the type to call FMC “princess” as a kind of mocking nickname, due to her royal maternal family. Although I also get the impression he likes that about her?

He's absolutely the type to do that.

Well....

[jinlai]

How old are the ROs?

Female: Yufei - 29.

Lina - 25.

Su Wenling - 37.

--------------------

Male: Lu Tian - 34.

Qin Liwei - 40.

Liao Yi - 26.

[jinlai]

Hi, could you do a poll here & on the forums to see which ROs are the most popular? I'm just nosy/curious lol

A bit later. Some ROs don't have any content for now lmao

[jinlai]

So you plan to explore the open relationshio dynamic the heiress ro talked about?

Yes. It will work both ways though, so you should be very careful picking that option

[jinlai]

How did MC’s father feel about Meixiu’s abusive methods?

Closed eyes, turned away. He doesn't have much of a voice in the family.

[jinlai]

Is there any options for a business marriage? I saw someone mention it but can't find anything else on it (would LOVE for there to be an option though)

Yes, only for mMC, however. For now, at least.

[jinlai]

Something I'm wondering in terms of gender differences between m!MC & f!MC…a 33 year old man might not get that much pressure about marriage/children yet, but I would have expected a 33 year old f!MC to be getting an earful about it from at least her mother for several years now, being covertly set up on blind dates, etc. since for her the biological clock is ticking more urgently.

Idk if it's something grandfather & the board would care about too? Especially if this contest is 3 years long and she'll be 36 by the end. I was just curious because there's a storyline for the m!MC finding someone to marry, but it's probably even more relevant for f!MC?

It will be mentioned, yeah. But it's not something that Grandfather cares about much (clarif.: he doesn't care about 'unmarried', but will care if you plan to marry someone who's 'wrong'). And for Mom, let's just say she's given up on the MC. Their relationship is very, very tense.
