National Game Producer

noon.

He Xu returned to the classroom after lunch. As soon as he took out his mobile phone, he saw the WeChat message from Wang Jingyao.

Wang Jingyao: I have something more important that I want to talk to you about. Remember to reply to me when you are free.

He Xu looked around, plugged in the headphones on his phone, and sat by the window.

He Ji: What happened?

Within a moment, the other party gave a reply.

Wang Jingyao: Is it convenient to answer the phone now?

He Jiu: Yes.

After sending the message, he put on his headphones.

Three seconds later, the other party made a voice call.

He clicked to answer and took the headset in his hand.

"Hey, Uncle Wang."

This is the title that the other party strongly requested him to change.

"Are you still in school?" Wang Jingyao asked.

"In the classroom, I just finished lunch and there is no one around now."

He Jiu answered all the possible questions first, "What does Uncle Wang want to talk to me about?"

In fact, he already had some rough ideas and guesses in his mind.

After all, there have been only a few major events in the gaming industry in the past two days.

It was difficult for him to guess.

"Of course it's about the game..."

Wang Jingyao corrected his attitude slightly, "I would like to ask if you know there is a game producer named 'Solar' on the Internet."

"...I know." He Jiu hesitated for a moment and gave an affirmative answer.

Although there is nothing wrong with answering "I don't know", in order to avoid unexpected situations, it is better to keep your answers as factual as possible.

"Have you played his games before?"

"I played "Humanity Failed" with Yu Suai and the others."

"Have you never played other games?"

"No."

"Oh, it's fine if you haven't played it before."

Wang Jingyao breathed a sigh of relief, "Then have you heard of his new game "Forest"?"

"...I think I saw this name on Weibo last night."

He Xu pretended not to understand the details, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this game?"

"It was on Weibo's hot topic list today, and now it's... it's now ranked ninth?"

Wang Jingyao's tone was filled with disbelief, "Why did the heat rise so quickly?"

"..."

He Ji was silent for two seconds and said tentatively, "Maybe it's because this game is more fun?"

He didn't expect that "The Forest" would receive such high attention.

...Perhaps it’s because the online attributes that have been hidden in players’ hearts for a long time have been completely developed?

"It's fun, but it can't go up like this! This, this is really inappropriate..."

Wang Jingyao muttered something in a low voice, and then said seriously, "We must suppress its heat!"

"Suppress its heat? Why?" He Xing asked.

"Because it's unhealthy."

"Unhealthy?"

"it……"

Wang Jingyao thought carefully for a moment and said hesitantly, "It is an online game with a weak plot."

Um……

Thinking about it carefully, this doesn’t seem to be unhealthy?

"Uncle Wang, do you have any prejudice against this type of game?"

"No……"

"Then why do you think it's unhealthy?"

"Because...well, it's not unhealthy, but it doesn't help improve mental strength."

"So, in fact, we don't need to suppress it at all?" He Xing asked.

"..."

Wang Jingyao was silent for two seconds and said, "If such a game is allowed to develop, it will definitely affect the status of games in the entire society... By then, we may even see games being kicked out of the entire education sector.

.”

He raised his voice slightly and said, "You don't want something like this to happen in the future, right?"

"Then wouldn't it be enough to distinguish it from ordinary single-player games?" He Ji said without thinking.

This is a method he has considered long ago, and it is very feasible.

He is not afraid that online games will be controlled, but he is afraid that the world will not be able to develop online games.

"this……"

Wang Jingyao thought for a while and then rejected his proposal, "There's no need to make it so complicated."

He analyzed, "Since such games are of no benefit to people, and they are still in their infancy, we can simply kill them to avoid having to deal with some inexplicable emergencies in the future."

"is that so?"

He Xu muttered something in a low voice, and then sighed deeply, "What do you want me to do?"

"Just use your old games to expand content and suppress the popularity of "The Forest" normally... Well, the key is that you should post a few more Weibo updates in the past two days to attract the attention of players."

Wang Jingyao thought for a moment and then added, "From today on, I will also find ways to help you promote more."

He believes that the other party will not refuse something like this that only benefits the other party and has no harm.

"Okay, I understand." He Xun responded.

Let "Firebringer" suppress "Solar"...

What a good idea~

…

In the evening after school.

On the way home, He Xu chatted with Yu Suai about what happened at noon.

After listening to this, Yu Suai quickly thought of a question:

"Who knows that you are 'Solar'?"

"You, Tang Lin, the three of them, and Zhao Yiyan, who has done dubbing for me several times before."

"Is that Zhao Yiyan trustworthy?"

"Believable."

"So sure?"

"Revealing the identity of 'Solar' will only do him harm but no good. What reason does he have to do this?"

He Xu smiled and said, "Although the adult world is very complicated, don't think that everyone is so bad."

"But you definitely can't think too well of others!" Yu Suai whispered.

"I know, I know it well." He Jiu nodded.

"Well... I have to send a message to Tang Lin and the others to remind them again."

Yu Suai was still a little worried, so she reached out and took out her cell phone from her trouser pocket, "You should also send a message to that Zhao Yiyan and let him remember to keep the secret."

After saying that, she lowered her head and started typing.

"Hey, it's still on the main road!"

Seeing her walking forward unconsciously, He Xu quickly raised his hand and put his hand on her shoulder, "Watch the road!"

"Isn't it about you?" Yu Suai lowered her head and concentrated on typing.

"Love words are not spoken at this time..."

He Xu looked around and gently pushed the other person towards the pedestrian street not far away, "Let's find a seat and sit for a while."

"Well, okay." Yu Suai responded without raising her head.

He Xu rubbed her shoulders helplessly and led her to sit down on a bench in the pedestrian street.

"Would you like something to eat?"

"You send the message first!"

"Okay, okay, can't I send it..."

He Xu took out his cell phone and sent Zhao Yiyan a greeting, "It's getting late, why don't we just have dinner outside?"

"If you divert my attention again, I will eat you first!" Yu Suai tilted her head and glared at him.

"Which way to eat it?"

"Bite you!"

"Then we have to change places." He Xu smiled, and when he saw Zhao Yiyan's reply, he quickly started typing with his head down.

He Ji: Remember to keep the matter about "Solar" a secret~

Zhao Yiyan: [eat melon]

Zhao Yiyan: Don’t worry, I won’t do anything stupid.

Zhao Yiyan: Having said that, your work on "Forest" is really interesting. Last night I was almost dragged into playing it all night long by those people in the studio.

He Jiu: Almost?

Zhao Yiyan: I am getting older and my body can no longer bear it.

He Jiu: Aren’t you single? This would be too much for you?

Zhao Yiyan:?

He Jiu: By the way, does everyone in your studio like to play "The Forest"?

Zhao Yiyan: Yes, not a single one is missed.

Not a single thing is missed...

He Xu paused slightly in his hand movements.

This situation is much better than he imagined.

Have all the players really awakened?

He Jiu: What do you think of the game "The Forest"?

Zhao Yiyan: Do you mean the after-playing experience?

Zhao Yiyan: From my personal feeling, this kind of multiplayer cooperative survival and construction gameplay can be regarded as the pinnacle of creativity in another form. It is no worse than the unique creativity of your previous new types of games.

Zhao Yiyan: People are inherently social animals. If you feel lonely playing single-player games, you will definitely like to play multi-player games like this.

Zhao Yiyan: In short, I think this game is very interesting. You can create more similar online games in the future.

Zhao Yiyan: Do you want me to help you ask other people’s opinions?

He Ji: No, that’s enough.

He Jiu: Then, I estimate that the next game will not be available to you until after June.

He Jiu: Can I make an appointment now?

Zhao Yiyan: No appointment is required. You can come to us at any time and we will help you match it at any time.

He Ji: Then thank you~

Zhao Yiyan: It’s us who thank you.

Zhao Yiyan: [Comparison]

He Xu smiled, ended the exchange, and put down his phone.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that Yu Suai beside him was missing.

He was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked around.

The next second, he saw the girl running back carrying a big bag of fried chicken steak.

"you……"

He Fu hesitated for a moment and swallowed back the question that had just come to his lips, "Would you like to buy some more drinks?"

"I've already ordered it. I'll get it right away... You still have lemonade, right?" Yu Suai thrust the fried chicken steak into his hand.

"Yeah." He Ji nodded.

"Wait until I come back to eat." After Yu Suai said that, she hurried to the milk tea shop not far away.

He Xu lowered his head and glanced at the fried chicken steak in his hand, and couldn't help but smile.

A minute later, the two of them were already on the bench, eating fried chicken steak with drinks.

"Are you going to cooperate with Uncle Wang and post a Weibo update later?" Yu Suai asked.

"Yes." He Jiu turned sideways and handed over a piece of fried chicken steak.

"Well, it's too big. I'll bite half of it first...Have you decided what to say?"

"How about ['Solar', it's time for you to die!]?"

"Aren't you scolding yourself?"

Yu Suai glanced at him sideways, "And what if the 'Fire Bearer' loses to 'Soral'?

"'Firebringer' now represents our entire team. If 'he' loses, it will be equivalent to the loss of all five of us... If you use such words to provoke us, we will definitely be laughed at by then.

dead!"

"Then what do you think we should do?" He Xuxiao asked.

"Why don't you put in some bad news?"

"You mean, reveal some news about the new game?"

"You've already planned it anyway~"

"no!"

"Ah?" Yu Suai looked confused, "Why not?"

"Because in this way, the players' attention will really be diverted."

He Ji fed her another small piece of fried chicken steak, "Although I promised Uncle Wang that I would cooperate with him to suppress Solar, I didn't say that I would really crush Solar to death...

"

"Well, you eat too... Do you still want to give 'him' some breathing space?" Yu Suai asked unclearly.

“Based on the current situation, it’s hard to say who will win between ‘Firebringer’ and ‘Solar’.”

He Xu took a sip of lemonade, "But that's not important. What's important is... we have to keep the players' attention firmly focused on the online game and not let them divert their attention."

"Oh... I understand." Yu Suai nodded thoughtfully.

Ultimately, the purpose of He Jiu is to make "online games" completely popular.

As for what means were used in the process, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, as long as he has a clear conscience, that's fine.

Of course, he will definitely not "act" too much.

…

Nine p.m.

Qin Changming was sitting on the sofa in the living room, operating his mobile phone excitedly.

Perhaps, even he himself did not realize that he had been paying too much attention to the keywords "Fantasy in the Immortal Pavilion", "Forest", and "Solar" in the past two days.

His personal emotions seemed to be completely immersed in this incident and he was unable to extricate himself.

At a certain moment, Qin Changming suddenly put down his mobile phone and took a long breath.

Just now, he successfully responded to a "Forest" player who was targeting "Xiange Romance", using relatively civilized words to silence the other player.

The basis for his debate with the other party naturally came from all the information about "Solar" and "The Forest" that he had found during the day.

It is a fact that "Solar" has made small butter before;

It is also true that "The Forest" is bloody and violent, and there are elements of eating savages;

The games made by "Solar" are nutritious and have minimal improvement in mental strength. This is also true.

With so many unfavorable factors, "Solar" and "Forest" are naturally at an absolute disadvantage.

Qin Changming defeated all the "Forest" players who dared to go against him with almost no effort.

And the most important thing is that now almost everyone on the Internet is criticizing "Solar" and "The Forest"!

Major game media are criticizing "The Forest";

Big name game studios are taking a stand and pointing fingers;

Some respected veterans in the gaming industry are spurning him;

A large number of netizens who do not know the truth are following the trend and responding to the authority.

…

This is equivalent to everyone on the Internet helping him.

It’s so refreshing!

Qin Changming happily took a sip of warm water, then picked up his phone again and refreshed his Weibo updates.

Within a moment, he saw a very eye-catching hot new news.

——A post from "The Fire Bearer".
