Chapter 1469: If You Achieve It, You Can Help The World

At the same time, Zhou Muyan was looking at the various statistics of the game, grinning from ear to ear.
Great, Boss Pei’s move was indeed extraordinary!
Min Jingchao was amazing as well. He could actually create such a popular game with Sun Strike Studios without working overtime!
It looked like the money was worth it to sign up for everyone to suffer!
Everyone was indeed worthy of this paid leave.
Zhou Muyan had always been a rather generous boss. He might not be comparable to Boss Pei but as long as the project earned money, he would never be stingy with the benefits and bonuses.
As he was happily watching the popularity of Bullet Hole 2 increase, his cell phone rang.
Zhou Muyan was stunned for a moment before he picked up the phone. “h.e.l.lo? Boss Ding?”
A confused and anxious voice came from the other end of the line. “Boss Zhou, what’s with this announcement?”
Zhou Muyan was stunned. “Announcement? Is there a problem with this announcement?”
Boss Ding seemed to be a little stumped by the question. He paused for a moment and said, “There’s no need for this announcement at all, right? We have to be flexible in formulating the operating strategy. We have to adjust according to the subsequent operations of the game. How can we tell the players from the beginning?”
“What’s more, Long Yu Corporation should be the one to announce something that involves operations!”
“Boss Zhou, you did not even tell me about this announcement. Isn’t that too unethical?”
Zhou Muyan was stunned. “Huh?”
“Boss Ding, you don’t know about this?”
“Aiya, this is so troublesome. There must be a misunderstanding somewhere!”
“It’s like this. I don’t know where the rumors are coming from online recently. They said that there will definitely be some messy operations in the later stages of Bullet Hole 2. Isn’t this creating rumors? Isn’t this slandering?”
“It’s fine if you did not sign an agreement with Tengda. There might be some operations with paywalls in the future. We cannot announce it and slap ourselves in the face. However, you have already signed an agreement with Tengda. There will definitely not be such operations in the future. Therefore, we have to clarify immediately!”
“That’s why I felt that it made sense when Tengda told me about this. The earlier the announcement is released, the better!”
“Posting it earlier would not only dispel the players’ doubts, but also make us look upright. Why not?”
“Boss Ding, you might have been too busy and did not receive the news. However, this does not affect much. Didn’t Long Yu Corporation sign an agreement with Tengda? They are all agreed upon. This announcement will not have any impact, right?”
“In my opinion, Boss Ding, you should make up for the announcement immediately. It’s quite good to act the entire show.”
Boss Ding: “I… I…”
Obviously, he still had a lot to say.
The content of this agreement was still open for discussion even though they had signed the agreement! It was not entirely impossible to fortress some operations within the agreement.
However, once this announcement was released, it was equivalent to exposing this matter to all players. If they were to organize such an event, they would definitely be scolded to death by players!
What’s more, players could accurately locate Long Yu Corporation and would not accidentally injure Tengda and Sun Strike Studios.
However, Boss Ding could not say what he was thinking directly. What’s more, it was useless to say anything now.
Boss Ding huffed and puffed for a long time before he could only say, “I know, Boss Zhou. I’ll make an announcement later. That’s all for now. See you.”
Zhou Muyan: “Eh? h.e.l.lo?”
Zhou Muyan was a little puzzled after hanging up.
“This Boss Ding, why don’t you look too happy that the game has become popular? Forget it, this money tree is enough for our studio to eat for several years!”
Zhou Muyan continued reading the figures happily.
…
Jin Yong was pretending to work on the operations plan when his cell phone rang.
Jin Yong could not help but smile when he saw the caller ID. He sent the operation plan that he had almost completed to Boss Ding while answering the phone.
“h.e.l.lo? Boss Ding, the operations plan is almost done. I’ve sent it to you. Do you want to take a look?”
“What? The operations plan is not going to be done?”
“Sun Strike Studios’ announcement? What announcement? Oh, we’ll release a similar announcement, right? Understood.”
After hanging up, Jin Yong smiled. At the same time, he could not help but feel emotional. Boss Zhao’s move was so effective!
Not only did he achieve his goal perfectly, but he also removed himself from it without causing Boss Ding’s suspicion at all.
Of course, Jin Yong had no choice. If he did nothing and really went along with Boss Ding’s wishes to argue with Boss Pei, he would probably end up in a sorry state.
As a game operator, Jin Yong was very clear about his work.
Had the game been scolded a lot? Of course, there were.
Every time there was a paywall event, the first to be scolded was the game operations. The second to be scolded was the company boss and the lousy planner.
Every time this happened, the lousy planner would feel wronged. I only care about designing the game, and I don’t care about the operations at all! Why are you scolding me?
In fact, operations were also very wrong. The plan was indeed done correctly by operations, but most of the time, it was taking the blame for the boss!
If the boss wanted the operations to be a more profitable plan, could the operations not be done? If he dared not to do it, he would immediately replace him!
Therefore, most of the time, Jin Yong knew that this was wrong. He would overdraft on the game’s lifespan and be scolded. However, he had no choice. He was in this industry. Could he still go against the boss?
If it was before, he would have no choice but to follow Boss Ding’s requests even if he was unwilling.
However, the situation this time was different.
He was pleasantly surprised to find that he could even do that?
As long as he could think of a way to bring out the great Buddha that was Tengda and Boss Pei, many problems would be easily solved.
The boss could indeed squeeze his employees dry, but he did not dare to be unreasonable with Boss Pei! As long as Tengda could strike first, the boss would become obedient.
Of course, it did not mean that he had to squeeze or control these bosses. They would not earn a single cent. He just had to control them so that they would not mess around.
Jin Yong quickly drafted the announcement and sent it out after confirming that there were no mistakes.
After all, Sun Strike Studios had already done it. They just had to follow it without any difficulty.
Long Yu Corporation’s official website, official Weibo, and other official accounts of social media platforms were released at the same time.
Soon, players replied.
“Good lord, Long Yu Corporation has also made an announcement! That means this matter must be true!”
“It’s impossible not to. Sun Strike Studios has already expressed their stance. If Long Yu Corporation doesn’t express their stance, wouldn’t that be equivalent to writing the words ‘come at me’ on their faces?”
“That’s great! The internal purchase price and promises are not to engage in other operations apart from lowering prices and discounts. There’s basically no s.p.a.ce to play word games, right? Bullet Hole 2 has confirmed that it will be a game with a conscience like GOG! It’s infinitely optimistic!”
“I still don’t believe in the integrity of Sun Strike Studios and Long Yu Corporation. These two fellows have always been bad. It’s not impossible for them to go back on their word.”
“However, it’s always a good thing to be willing to make this announcement!”
“Tengda is really awesome. It can request the operator to operate according to their own rules! This is only Tengda. The other development companies probably don’t have any say at all. Don’t talk about making suggestions for the operations plan. It would be good enough if they were not forced by the operator to change the design plan!”
“Who asked Tengda to come up with something and design? If you can design your own explosive game, you can design it yourself. As long as you cooperate with Tengda, of course you have to listen to Tengda!”
“Therefore, does Tengda count as helping the world as much as possible? Bringing this concept of good-hearted operations to other companies to achieve the effect of good money expelling bad money?”
“There should be more game merchants working with Tengda in the future, right? I suggest that this matter can become the norm. In the future, the gaming circle will also have Tengda’s certification. As long as the companies that work with Tengda make an announcement saying that they will abide by these two operating principles, then everyone can play it!”
“Holy sh*t, this is too ruthless, right?”
“Ruthless my a*s. You make it sound as if they don’t earn money! It’s just to ask them not to cut the leeks so harshly. Don’t always think about pulling the leeks out by the roots.”
“That makes sense. If we play Tengda’s certified games in the future, wouldn’t Tengda’s certified games slowly be the only one left in the gaming circle? The plan is feasible!”
Jin Yong did not expect the response to be so good!
Obviously, gamers had reached a point of unconditional trust in Tengda and Boss Pei. Even if they jointly developed games with Tengda and released a statement, they would be able to obtain the backing of Tengda’s reputation and become a hot topic!
“Could it be that Tengda can change the entire domestic gaming environment?”
Jin Yong suddenly had such a ridiculous idea.
