Play Game of Life

Early the next morning, Zhao Haoyan happily came to the entrance of the Internet cafe again, and helped Lu Mingyuan move the table out, preparing to continue today's promotional activities.

Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao have also brought out various small gifts and started business.

In the past two days, they were overjoyed to see the word-of-mouth and sales of "You in Eyes" and "Ordinary Life" all the way up.

As a member of 404 Studios, these two games can not only bring them considerable income, but also write a strong stroke on their resumes.

When other students are still having a headache about their studies and employment after four years, they don't have to worry about finding a job at all. Isn't it good to follow Lu Zhixing and make 404 Studio bigger and stronger?

Soon, everyone started to get busy.

But after being busy for a while, Lu Yixiao keenly felt that there seemed to be some changes in the flow of people.

"What's going on? It feels like there are a lot fewer people than yesterday."

He turned his head to look at Lu Zhixing who had just come down from the second floor of the internet cafe.

"Brother Lu! Is the flow of people today less than yesterday? It's not my illusion, is it?"

Lu Zhixing glanced around, thoughtfully: "Well... it seems that there are indeed fewer than yesterday. Today is Sunday, it shouldn't be.

"Old Zhao, go and check the Internet cafe around the corner."

Zhao Haoyan nodded immediately: "Okay, Brother Lu, I'll go right away."

With his long legs, he ran to the door of Duan Lin's Internet cafe in three steps at a time, and quickly came back.

"Brother Lu! That Internet cafe is also holding an event! And it's more powerful than ours. Not only is it how much to recharge, how much to give away, but also has the opportunity to draw free orders and various prizes!"

Both Liu Bo and Zhao Haoyan froze: "What do you mean, a price war? Does this count as disrupting the market order?"

Lu Zhixing was thoughtful, "Price war...if it's just a price war, it doesn't matter.

"The popularity of our Internet cafe comes from the popularity of "Ordinary Life", which has a lot of stamina, and the popularity of the other party comes from the low price advantage, which is unsustainable. Duan Lin is not doing charity, he can't sustain this kind of loss-making activities Too long."

Zhao Haoyan asked: "Brother Lu, don't we need to do anything?"

Lu Zhixing shook his head slightly: "Don't worry, let me think about it.

"Duan Lin shouldn't be so stupid as to try to win us with a price war. Unless...he is cooperating with the college show team to cover up their real method..."

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. If it is an ordinary college student, it may be confused by the price war, but Lu Zhixing has seen a lot after all, and unconsciously thought of a more serious possibility.

He quickly took out his mobile phone and quickly searched for relevant information on the Internet.

"Sure enough, they still have extra tricks.

"It's probably because someone hired a navy to attack "Ordinary Life"!"

The expressions of the other three froze instantly, and they looked at each other in blank dismay:

They also took out their mobile phones to search for the keywords of "ordinary life", and found that there were a lot of harsh voices in the discussions on major platforms and forums.

Simply flipping through the comments of these sailors, the general words are nothing more than the following:

"Ordinary Life" has exquisite resources and is full of skins, but it is not fun at all, so it is not worthy of being called a game!

"Ordinary Life" deliberately exposes the ugly side of reality, promotes negative values, and has bad value orientation!

"Ordinary Life" does not have a clear core. Although it claims to reflect reality, it is not thought-provoking enough!

And so on, and so on.

In fact, players who have actually played "Ordinary Life" can see that these are more or less forced hacks, but the voice of the navy is indeed very loud, which is very confusing to passers-by who don't know the truth.

And these sailors seem to be well-trained, they are very smart not to step on one, and they didn't mention any other games, they just attacked "Ordinary Life", so they are very confusing.

Liu Bo couldn't help but take a deep breath: "Navy army? No way, is it worth launching a navy army to deal with our small broken studio? Who did it?"

As ordinary college students, they encountered such overwhelming water army attacks as soon as their games became popular, which really made them a little at a loss.

Lu Zhixing looked at them: "Who else did it?"

Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao looked at each other, and immediately thought of the answer: "College show team!"

It's not hard to guess.

Lu Zhixing had already formed a relationship with Gao Gaoxiu before, and the welcome party he organized severely slapped Gao Gaoxiu in the face, and the shady stories about Gao Gaoxiu that he said in the robbing battle were also widely circulated.

It's just that even if Gao Gaoxiu wanted to attack him at that time, he had no strength to attack him, so he didn't do anything for the time being.

But this time, "Ordinary Life" is in direct competition with the game of the same name as "High School Show", and the offline activities are also tit-for-tat. The people of "High School Show" naturally can't sit still.

Liu Bo couldn't help frowning: "Are they trying to settle the old and new grudges together? Changteng Entertainment is such a big company, and "High School Show" just announced the top 20 list yesterday. Do you want to show some face for mobilizing a navy to engage our newly established small studio?"

Lu Yixiao looked serious: "Maybe it's because we are a small studio that they are so unscrupulous? After all, they see that we are powerless to fight back."

Zhao Haoyan arranged all the tables and chairs, and joined the discussion at this time: "Why don't we buy sailors and scold them too!"

Liu Bo couldn't help laughing: "Go to fight with them in the field they are best at? We don't have a special navy, so don't worry about finding a navy outside? Besides, we don't have money."

Lu Yixiao also nodded: "Even if we invite the navy to scold them back, it doesn't make any sense. There are so many negative public opinions in colleges and universities, it's already too much for the ticklish. What's worse, if they cooperate with the navy outside, we will find When they were in the navy, they seized the handle and beat us up, then we would be in real trouble.

"After all, we don't have real evidence now, and we can't prove that these sailors were bought by college shows."

Liu Bo: "Yes, to put it bluntly, the lower limit of the water army is to compete with others. In this respect, we can't compare with Changteng Entertainment."

Zhao Haoyan clenched his fists unconsciously: "Does that mean we can't do anything, we can only wait for them to discredit us?"

Lu Yixiao suddenly thought of a solution: "By the way, Brother Lu, how about asking Professor He or Team Leader Zhou for help? They have connections and resources, and maybe they can solve this problem."

Lu Zhixing shook his head: "I'm planning to ask Team Leader Zhou for help, but the resources of the research team are used for other purposes, so there's no need to fight the water army in person, the loss outweighs the gain.

"There is only one way to deal with these trolls, and that's to draw from the bottom of the pot!

"If Changteng Entertainment can't take care of itself, these naval forces will naturally die down."

Everyone couldn't understand: "Then, brother Lu, what should we do?"

Lu Zhixing said: "You guys should continue to hold the event, I'll figure out a way to do this."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went to the second floor of the internet cafe, and locked himself in the room.

...

If it is another small studio, it really can only suffer from this dumb loss at this time.

After half a month or a month, the word-of-mouth of the two games "Ordinary Life" and "High School Show" has stabilized, and the truth will naturally be revealed to the world.

But that also plays into the hands of the enemy.

For these capitals, their purpose is to muddy the water in the short term, so as to get the money back quickly by cutting leeks, which is a one-shot deal.

In the long run, what if those excellent works win word of mouth? The capital has already patted its ass and ran away, leaving behind a lot of chicken feathers.

Not to mention small companies, even some big companies that don't like to play crooked ways are mostly helpless when encountering this situation.

After all, this kind of indiscriminate moves is the lower limit. Capital can spend money to buy sailors. That’s because their production costs are very small, and they can save money to buy sailors and make rankings. Companies at the same level spend money on In terms of production costs, these crooked ways naturally cannot be dealt with.

But other people can't do anything, it doesn't mean that Lu Zhixing can't do anything.

Those conventional methods are not effective, but Lu Zhixing still has unconventional methods: he can try his luck to see if he can just get a useful life skill to break this seemingly unsolvable deadlock!

Before that, his highest points reached nearly 1400 points, but in the process of making the game, he also exchanged a lot of leftovers necessary for the game, so he spent a lot, and now only 194 points remain.

At present, the lottery for life skills has reached 80 points once, and these points are enough for him to draw twice.

Lu Zhixing's idea is very simple: try these two life skills lottery draws, can you get some life-changing skills?

For example, if you get a skill like a senior hacker and dig out more black material about "High School Show", wouldn't you be able to change homes with Changteng Entertainment?

Of course, if you didn't draw any useful skills twice, then you can only pretend that nothing happened.

Take a deep breath, draw!
