When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay

Lilith frowned and didn't speak for a long time.

Obviously, she has realized that the problems of the company Nitiantang seem to be bigger than she thought.

At this moment, she is like the emperors in ancient times who never issue orders outside the Forbidden City.

She can vaguely feel that as an emperor, all kinds of power are strictly restricted. Many of the civil servants below seem to have rebellious bones, especially the cabinet chief, who seems to be the number one traitor.

Today this order is beaten back for this reason, and tomorrow that order will trigger fierce resistance from a group of civil servants, crying and shouting, and banging their heads against the pillars.

In short, things can't be done!

But when they checked afterwards, they really couldn't find any problems.

These civil servants, one by one, look like loyal ministers. Not only do they live a simple life and have no extra money, but every time they debate with the emperor, they are well-reasoned and seem to be really thinking about the country and the long-term.

If you don't believe in the civil service system, why not send Jinyiwei or eunuchs to check it out?

The results of the investigation were not too problematic.

Whether it was the commander of the Jinyiwei or the governor of the East Factory, they could not find any problems with those senior officials. At most, they tortured a few small Karamis into confessing, and finally proved that it was all a false case.

Could it be that it was not the world that was wrong, but herself?

How could that be possible!

Although Lilith did not know much about Chinese history, as a high-ranking hell demon, she could think by instinct that there was definitely something wrong with the entire system.

That's right, this system may have completely lost its ability to correct errors!

Just like the mutual protection of officials in the ancient officialdom, after the system collapses, any temptation that is not tolerated by this system will disappear without a trace like a stone sinking into the sea.

What's more, Lilith's current situation should be even worse than those emperors in ancient times.

So what should be done?

Lilith could only think of one way: for now, the best solution is to introduce external forces.

Find a third party that has nothing to do with the interests of Ni Tian Tang, find a talent who can crack these tricks, give him full trust, and then break through this stubborn fortress bit by bit.

So who is this person?

A familiar figure naturally emerged in Lilith's mind, Qin Fengliang.

But when this figure just emerged, Lilith felt sincerely discouraged.

Wolong has made a move three or four times, but each time he is more treacherous than the insider!

The last time Qin Fengliang made a move was when the full-professional gameplay of "Shadow World" appeared. She vowed to guarantee that as long as she strongly linked with Shengjing Group's "Star World", she would definitely lead players to "Star World", and thus become more and more dissatisfied with "Shadow World", so as to achieve the purpose of persuading players to quit and collecting negative emotions.

But what was the final result?

Shengjing Group lost again!

So far, "Star Spirit World" has long been in a slump, while "Shadow World" has achieved good success in both major versions. So far, even without any version updates, players are still enjoying it.

Lilith also wondered, who knows why these players are so persistent!

If it is generally the case, the freshness of MMORPGs is mainly maintained by constantly updating versions. After all, the same team dungeon and the same mechanism, players feel fresh after playing for a month, gradually get bored after playing for three months, and may lose interest completely after playing for half a year or a year.

But "Shadow World" seems to be an outlier. Although there are indeed players who are tired of playing and constantly quitting the game, there are also a steady stream of new players entering, and many old players AFK for a period of time and then come back to play.

And the later it is, the less negative emotions this game generates, and the more positive emotions it generates.

Obviously, more and more players are gradually accustomed to the unreasonable settings in the game, but the joy of successfully clearing the group dungeon and defeating the boss is always there.

Although this kind of fun will gradually decrease with repeated clearance, there will still be a fixed minimum value.

So after Qin Fengliang's last bad idea, Lilith was so angry that she hadn't visited her for a long time.

Later, "Endless Fantasy Legend" and "Heartbeat Dream" were similar scripts. The beginning seemed quite normal, and each time it was the most promising episode, but in the end, there were still frequent problems, which made Lilith's plan fail.

It's not possible... to ask Qin Fengliang for advice again?

Lilith actually rejected this option in her heart, but after thinking about it, she really couldn't find a better candidate for the time being.

Of course, Lilith still has some think tanks like Qin Fengliang, but overall, she still thinks Qin Fengliang is the most reliable and has more comprehensive knowledge.

Other so-called think tanks are often only specialized in a certain field and may not be able to have any constructive opinions on her game.

"Damn it, it seems urgent to continue to cultivate external forces!"

Lilith couldn't find any flaws from Gu Fan for the time being, so she could only stay put and accept the fact that "Heartbeat Dream" could no longer collect too many negative emotions.

She decided to give Qin Fengliang one last chance. If she still made things worse this time, she would block this think tank permanently and let her guard the haunted house for the rest of her life!

Thinking of this, Lilith turned around and left the villa without saying hello to Gu Fan.

"Huh? Didn't she just disappear?"

Gu Fan was a little surprised. Lilith left the villa and most likely drove out. As for where she went, it was most likely not to return to hell.

Going to ask for help?

In fact, Gu Fan had already felt that Lilith must have some other forces in the world that he could turn to for help, but he was not panicking. After all, the level of those think tanks that Lilith found, to be frank... didn't seem to be much better than her.

...

At 4 a.m., Lilith came to the Purgatory Demon Cave Haunted House.

"Boss Li! You are finally here!

"During the time you were away, I was thinking about it day and night, and I regretted it so much!

"I reviewed all the mistakes I made before, and I have found that the enemy this time is extremely cunning, but don't worry, Boss Li, I have evolved comprehensively and am no longer the same as before!

"You are now facing internal and external troubles, and you must let me help share the burden! "

Qin Fengliang was crying and looked even more heartbroken than Lilith.

As a think tank, she was very dedicated. She got up from the bed when she received Lilith's message late at night, and never missed any opportunity to share the boss's worries.

Seeing that Qin Fengliang was so reliable, Lilith couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, and thought that she could consider giving her another chance.

After all, she was an old man under her. Even if she didn't have any merits, she had worked hard. Maybe she could turn the tables this time?

For Lilith, she only needed to win once and find out the traitor of Ni Tian Tang. That was enough. After that, it was smooth sailing. She could have as many negative emotions as she wanted!

A losing streak would earn interest, that's the truth.

Ni Tian Tang Although the development of the game has been smooth and has accumulated a huge reputation among the player community, it also means that as long as the method is appropriate, Lilith can use this reputation to make a big difference and collect a large amount of negative emotions at one time.

So, it is far from time to give up.

"Okay, let me make it short. The game of Against Heaven is called "Heartbeat Dream". My original idea was..."

Lilith quickly recounted the problems encountered by "Heartbeat Dream" at this time.

Of course, the outrageous bugs in the game, the amazing performance of fake-AI, and Gu Fan's explanation of the various codes in it were also explained in detail and fully.

Then she looked at Qin Fengliang: "Do you think Gu Fan is fooling me? ”

Lilith didn’t verify Gu Fan’s explanation of the game bug before, but based on her understanding of the game, these explanations are still relatively credible.

But this time, the explanation of Heartbeat Dream sounds a bit outrageous, so Lilith wants to verify it in depth to see if there is any trick in it.

Qin Fengliang fell into deep thought.

“Mr. Li, to be honest, I don’t know much about the code.

“Programmers are creatures with a big difference between the upper and lower limits. The gap between good programmers and bad programmers is greater than the gap between people and dogs.

“What’s more, so far, there are probably not many technical experts on the Internet who can really understand fake-AI. ”

Lilith frowned slightly: “You mean, even if I find some programmers, I may not get the right answer?”

Qin Fengliang nodded: “Yes, after all, Gu Fan is already a top programmer, and his perspective on the problem may be different from that of ordinary programmers.

“Even if ordinary programmers think he is wrong, they may not necessarily believe it.”

Lilith couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

Qin Fengliang's words made sense, and he also pointed out a key blind spot: if you want to introduce external forces to verify the program problem, then this person must have a level similar to Gu Fan.

Because this kind of thing still needs sufficient professional knowledge as support to draw the correct conclusion.

For example, if Lilith wants to verify whether there is a problem with the design of the rocket, she didn't find a rocket expert, but only found a civilian scientist, and then the civilian scientist said that the rocket must use anthracite as fuel. Isn't this nonsense?

The same is true for programs, which are also highly professional.

But as a programmer, Gu Fan's level is really too high. Where can we find people at the same level as him?

Such people should be technical backbones in some large companies, right? I'm afraid it's not so easy to find.

Qin Fengliang is confident, she smiled slightly, obviously thinking of this problem a long time ago.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I have a way.

"It's really not easy for us to find these technical backbones in large companies. First, there is no network, and second, even if we find them, these people are usually busy with work and may not be willing to take our private work.

"But it doesn't matter. It's hard to find someone who spends money, but it's easy to find someone who doesn't spend money."

Lilith was stunned for a moment: "Ah?"

What do you mean it's hard to find someone who spends money, but it's easy to find someone who doesn't spend money?

Is it the other way around?

Qin Fengliang smiled slightly: "Boss Li, haven't you heard of a saying? There are experts among the people.

"For example, the liver emperor who has been against you before, isn't he an expert?"

Lilith shook her head violently, like a rattle: "The liver emperor is no good! This person is hopeless, and it is absolutely impossible to expect him to help me!

"Besides, his main skills are focused on making mods. It's hard to say whether he has done any research on fake-AI."

Qin Fengliang said quickly: "Mr. Li, I'm not telling you to find the Gan Emperor, I'm just using him as an example.

"On the Internet, there are still many top experts who do things purely out of interest. Take Emperor Gan for example. His skills are very strong. If he finds a job in a big factory, his income will not be bad. But he just likes to make his own mods and get them for free. share.

"Similarly, there are many similar experts in Tieba or some other game forums. If you give them money to do things for you, they will be reluctant in every possible way; but if they encounter something they are interested in, they will immediately I brought my own dry food to do it, and I will make sure that things are done beautifully and clearly.

“The key here is ‘interest’!

"As long as we arouse their interest, we can get them to do things for us without paying a penny."

Lilith nodded suddenly.

It sounds promising!

There are indeed all kinds of great gods on the Internet. They are usually invisible or diving, but once they encounter something they are interested in, they will immediately burst out with 120% enthusiasm to complete a certain cause without asking for anything. Return.

For example, some top modders make balance mods for some games that are even better than the official ones;

Another example is some master-level players, who can even perform horrific operations that game designers cannot imagine, raising the upper limit of the game's operations to an incredible level;

There are also special tools for various software or APPs, which are even better than the original version.

The Internet is so big that there is no shortage of such top masters.

But the question is, how can we arouse their interest?

This is easy to say, but very difficult to do.

Qin Fengliang smiled confidently: "Mr. Li, it may not work if it is another project, but "Heartbeat Dreamland" itself is already very influential, and this is a natural gimmick.

"If you really want to verify whether what Gu Fan said is true, you only need to do one thing:

"Find a way to create public opinion and release the news that the true ending of "Heartbeat Dreamland" was created by AI itself. Then, naturally, many technical experts will dig into the underlying code to find out whether this is true."

Lilith's eyes gradually widened: "What a good idea! This is really a good idea!"

Netizens are basically a bit rebellious and have a bit of a physical constitution.

If I tell netizens: the ending of "Heartbeat Dreamland" is carefully designed by the official.

Then netizens will definitely say: You have put all your efforts into designing this? It’s not that great, there’s nothing to brag about.

But if I tell netizens: the ending of "Heartbeat Dreamland" is not an official design at all, but was created by fake-AI itself.

Then netizens will definitely say: What nonsense are you talking about? How could this be done by fake-AI? Definitely a hype from the heavens!

And once this wave of suspicion forms, there will inevitably be countless experts on the Internet to unpack it.

They will go through every line of code in this game to see if this ending was written by Ni Tiantian during development? Or is it caused accidentally because of a bug in the AI?

It doesn’t matter if some of these participants are not very technical.

Because everyone will discuss and argue with each other, and eventually they will come up with a correct answer.

"In other words, I don't have to spend a penny or do anything special. As long as I let the news out, I can let the big guys on the Internet work for me in vain and help me catch the mole!

"This is really... great!"

Lilith was still worried about how to determine whether what Gu Fan said was true.

Find a new programmer, you may not be able to trust him.

But now there is no need to worry about it. If it is posted on the Internet, the result of repeated discussions among all the experts will definitely be the correct answer!

At that time, we just need to see whether the results of everyone's research are consistent with what Gu Fan said.

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you! Tomorrow night, I will see the results!"

Lilith looked at the time and unknowingly had been chatting with Qin Fengliang for more than an hour, and it was almost six o'clock. She couldn't come over during the day, so in order to save time, Qin Fengliang could only handle this task.

This is reasonable. After all, Qin Fengliang came up with this idea, so she naturally needs to implement it herself.

Qin Fengliang burst into tears with gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Li, for your trust. I will definitely handle this matter well!"

Obviously, this is her chance to win back Mr. Li's trust.

Qin Fengliang also wondered whether he was incompatible with Ni Tiantang? Why is it that every time Nitian’s ideas come up, they always have the opposite effect inexplicably?

So much so that Mr. Li almost didn't trust her.

Qin Fengliang must consider whether this is the only opportunity in his life to win back Mr. Li's trust and return to the top of the think tank list. This is it!

…

…

At noon the next day, the game against heaven.

Everyone else wandered to eat nearby, leaving Zhou Yang alone to order takeout and watch the meal video while eating.

For employees of Nitiantang, the company is good in every aspect, except for the food.

After all, there are only so many food options nearby. Even if you count all the small restaurants nearby, plus the nearby shopping malls and the stores that can deliver food all over the city on the food delivery software, the range of choices is still very small.

After such a long time, I am basically tired of eating at delicious restaurants.

Every lunch, I will fall into the dilemma of making choices.

As for Zhou Yang, he is not very particular about food. Anyway, there are still Mai and Ken to choose from.

"Huh? Didn't go out to eat today." Gu Fan seemed to have just finished his meal and came over for a stroll.

Zhou Yang hurriedly asked: "Mr. Gu, after I left last night, there should be no...important things, right?"

Gu Fan was silent for a moment: "Are you talking about Ms. Li? Don't worry, it's not a big problem."

Zhou Yang nodded, thinking that it is reliable to have Mr. Gu around.

Obviously, Ms. Li still asked some questions last night, but who is Mr. Gu? She must have helped to fool, oh no, explained it away.

At this time, the employees of Nitiantang could feel that they were cooperating more and more tacitly with each other. Even with a few simple words, they could quickly understand each other's intentions, and everything was self-evident.

Zhou Yang was a little worried that there would be problems this time, but it was obvious that with Mr. Gu, he would always be as steady as an old dog.

At this moment, Zhou Yang, who was watching a video while eating, suddenly stopped.

He looked at the content on the screen in disbelief: "Mr. Gu! Mr. Gu!

"Look at this video...

"It seems that someone on the Internet has unpacked "Heartbeat Dreamland"!"

Gu Fan came over to take a look, and saw that the title of this video was: Heavy! Things that only developers know! Unpacking "Heartbeat Dreamland"!

It's nothing to just look at the title of this video. There are some UP hosts on the Internet who specialize in unpacking games. Which popular game has not been unpacked? It can even be said that if some games are not unpacked, players can't understand its internal mechanism at all.

But looking at the content on the cover of this video, it's a bit shocking.

"The true ending doesn't exist in the game code?"
