"Let's go, let's go."
"The person in charge here, please cooperate with us."
Under the strong request of the organizers, more than half of the showgirls for Plants vs. Zombies were removed, leaving behind only a few girls who looked acceptable. The staff of the game company were also very depressed, but there was nothing they could do since they were the organizers, so they could only do as they were told.
In the end, when the showgirls left, most of the people at the game's booth that was bustling with activity suddenly left. Everyone was saying that it was "boring" as they walked away.
As for the game?
What the hell was that!
Plants vs. Zombies? Since when could plants defeat zombies!
Not many people understood this nonsensical game name and found it unappealing. Coupled with the fact that it was a puzzle game on the signboard, many of them lost interest. It wasn't easy to spend so much money to come to such a big convention, so even if they wanted to see a game, it would be a large-scale RPG or MMO made by a big company. Who would want to come here and play a small game, let alone a demo version? As a result, without the gimmick of the showgirls, the crowd naturally dispersed. Not many people were left behind.
Zhang Ye hated it!
Little Wang also lost interest. "Director Zhang, let's go too."
Ha Qiqi tilted her head and pointed. "That's the booth for Fishing Master 2. Shall we go and have a look?"
Right now, the entire office of their program team was playing this game.
But Zhang Ye said, "You guys go ahead. I'll walk around by myself."
Ha Qiqi looked at him and said, "Alright then, we'll look for you in a bit."
She, Little Wang, and the others left.
Zhang Ye did not move from his spot. He was still thinking about the promotion for his game and felt very pained. A showgirl that was full of positive energy had been ruined by the organizers, and they even said that she was not dressed properly? Bullshit! Formalism! It was all formalism! If they kept doing this all day, the country would be in danger in the long run!
With the crowd dispersed, quite a few players came to the game booths around them. Gradually, the other booths around them also gained popularity.
Zhang Ye could only hear a staff member at a booth behind him talking.
"Hmph, what unorthodox methods!"
"It's all thanks to the organizers that they cleared the area in time."
"What Plants vs. Zombies? They can only rely on the showgirls to show off their 'bodies.' How can it be a good game? If they have the time, they might as well spend it on making games! "
"Yeah, the showgirl left. Look, everyone's gone, right?"
The staff members didn't even try to hide their voices.
Zhang Ye was annoyed the moment he heard that. He strolled back to the shooting game's booth and glanced at the demo console's screen. He grunted, "What a crappy game!"
When one of the female staff heard this, her eyebrows twitched, but she still greeted him with a smile. "Player, you can give it a try first before commenting."
Zhang Ye glanced at the screen again and grunted, "What a crappy interface!"
The corner of the female staff member's eyes twitched as she forced a smile and said, "Although the interface continues the design concept of traditional shooting games, our game's graphics are the industry's …"
Zhang Ye grunted again, "What a lousy image!"
The female employee: "…"
When Zhang Ye saw that there were still very few people at his game's booth, he could not help but feel indignant. He decided to waste his time at the shooting game's booth. One moment, he would walk over to the first demo console to complain, and the next moment, he would stroll over to the third demo console to complain.
The staff were going crazy!
Big Brother! How did we offend you? What the hell are you talking about? You're already stepping on us?
Suddenly, Zhang Ye seemed to have sensed or heard something. When he turned around, he frowned. He realized that his program team staff had bumped into his Central TV Department 1 colleagues and seemed to be talking. Did they get into an argument? Wasn't that person the secretary of Central TV Department 1's Deputy Director Jiang Yuan? Zhang Ye did not know what was going on, but without a word, he immediately walked over.
In front.
Dozens of people from Central TV Department 1 were gathered in front of a booth. Some of them were playing games inside, while others were looking at Ha Qiqi, Wu Yi, and the others.
They heard Jiang Yuan's secretary say, "You guys better watch yourselves!"
Ha Qiqi retorted, "What should we watch out for?"
Little Wang had a bad temper and retorted, "The tickets are ours and it's a rest day today, so why can't we go anywhere we want? Do we even have to report to the unit for approval? "
That secretary said angrily, "To think that you guys still know about the unit? Who in Central TV doesn't know that you guys play games during office hours! Those who don't know might even think that you guys work in the gaming industry! "
An old comrade from Central TV Department 1 said, "Little Ha, you guys really shouldn't do that."
In the crowd, another middle-aged staff member from Central TV Department 1 also said earnestly, "Your program team has gotten into big trouble this time. Because of a small matter, your unit's reputation has been tarnished. You guys shouldn't be working hard to make up for it, but are still playing games and watching movies during office hours every day. But now, when you guys see us, you don't even greet us and pretend not to see us? It's not that I want to criticize you guys, but I can't bear to watch this any longer. "
Another person reprimanded, "It's only because Director Jiang is taking care of the kids in front that he didn't see us. If Director Jiang were here, he would definitely get angry at you all!"
These people were obviously people who were determined to follow in the footsteps of their leaders.
Ha Qiqi, Little Wang, and the others were getting a little angry. However, they were still inexperienced in Department 1, so some things were not appropriate for them to say, nor could they retort.
But at this moment, Zhang Ye appeared behind them out of nowhere.
"Whoa, who's telling stories to my people again?" The moment Zhang Ye opened his mouth, he immediately said, "Tell me some stories too! I just love listening to stories! "
Little Wang said happily, "Director Zhang!"
The program team staff of The Voice immediately found their backbone and straightened their backs!
When Central TV Department 1's people saw that Zhang Ye had arrived, their hearts skipped a beat!
Jiang Yuan's secretary said with a dark expression, "Zhang Ye, what are you doing? Your people are pretending not to know us when they see us and not even greeting us. What's with that? "
Zhang Ye looked at him and said, "Are you the country's president or the Secretary-General of the United Nations? Do we even need to greet you when we see you? "
The secretary said angrily, "You …"
That old comrade said, "Little Zhang, how can you say that?"
"I've always spoken like that!" When Zhang Ye spoke, he would not give face to anyone regardless of their rank or seniority.
Those people from Central TV Department 1 also knew that Zhang Ye was a prick, and even the word "prick" was not enough to describe him. This fellow was already Central TV's biggest cancer. Not to mention the few of them, even the leaders of Central TV Department 1 could not do anything to him. After the lawsuit, they had obediently transferred their salary to Zhang Ye's account and even doubled their salary, so there was no way they could do anything to him. So after saying a few words of reprimand, they quickly walked away and did not continue arguing with Zhang Ye.
In the distance, Jiang Yuan, who was with his son, also saw this scene. His heart was incomparably cold. The freezing had already begun. Zhang, from today onwards, you can only watch as your popularity drops day by day. I want to see how many more days you can jump around! Let's see if you can still be happy in the future!
Little Qi said, "Dad, there's a Plants vs. Zombies game over there? That's an interesting name, I want to play it! "
Jiang Yuan's expression changed and he said kindly, "Alright, alright."
Everyone left.
Little Wang hurriedly said to Zhang Ye, "Director Zhang, it's all thanks to your timely arrival. Otherwise, we would have been bullied by those people! Not greeting them when you see them is considered a reason? That's too unreasonable! "
A female editor gnashed her teeth and said, "Our program team has become the target of public criticism. Back when The Voice was first broadcast, who wouldn't be polite to us when they saw us? Who wouldn't give us a thumbs up when they saw us? Now, they were getting rid of the donkey once it was out of the millstone! Everyone is stepping on us now! "
Ha Qiqi sneered and said, "As long as Director Zhang is around, who would dare to step on us? Just look, when Director Zhang arrived, those people immediately ran away! "
Little Wang clapped her hands and said with a smile, "Right, they only dare to bully us. When they saw Director Zhang, they all ran away in fear!"
Zhang Ye said in amusement, "Am I that scary?"
Wu Yi said in a nicer way, "Director Zhang is just famous!"
Everyone chimed in, but Zhang Ye's mind was not here. He was still thinking about his game. The reason why he came here today was because of this matter. With his current situation, every bit of popularity was hard to come by. After putting in so much effort, Zhang Ye definitely had to get his hands on the popularity of Plants vs. Zombies. He had to ensure that his game would become an instant hit, otherwise, he would really become a joke to those who were waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
What should he do?
The organizers had already left. Should he get those bikini booth girls to come back? Play guerrilla warfare with them? When the enemy comes, I'll retreat. When the enemy retreats, I'll harass them?
Good idea!
As this fellow was letting his imagination run wild, suddenly, a lively commotion could be heard from not far away!
"Old Yu, come over quickly!"
"What's up?"
"Damn, this game is too awesome!"
"Plants? Zombies? What are they? "
"You'll know when you come over to play! Hurry up and line up! There are more and more people coming! "
"Wow, why are there so many people?"
"It's because it's so fun!"
Zhang Ye was taken aback and quickly turned his head to look. He saw that the previously empty Plants vs. Zombies booth was now crowded with people again!
"Aiyo, this game is awesome!"
"I didn't think much of it when I saw the name just now, but why is it so fun?"
"Yeah, I was also attracted by the booth girls and thought that this game was just a game to please the crowd. But I didn't expect that I would be so fascinated by it after trying it out! This is definitely the most fun puzzle game I've ever played in my entire life! And can this even be considered a mini-game? This is the first time I've heard that a puzzle mini-game can be made like this! Whether it's the creativity or gameplay, there's nothing to pick on! "
"It's so fun!"
"Have the brothers in front finished trying it out yet? Please hurry up, there's still a bunch of people waiting! "
"Is it my turn yet? Is it my turn yet? "
Not only were the people trying out the game already forming a long line in front of the machines, there were also countless gamers who were watching from the sidelines. They were also getting restless and joined the queue. When there was no one around, there might not even be a single person around. But once there were more and more people, the popularity would also become more and more obvious! With all the shouting and clamoring, a large portion of the people who had left after watching the booth girls' performance came back again!
Zhang Ye laughed out loud when he saw this!
As expected, good wine does not fear the deep alley!
I knew it. How could the most popular puzzle game from this bro's previous world not even make a splash in this world!?
