Bao Xu was very touched.
He is indeed Boss Pei. He did not ask me to contribute and sacrifice silently. Instead, he found the best of both worlds!
This time, Bao Xu had no regrets and happily hung up the phone.
He then told Yu Fei about Boss Pei's arrangements.
"It's settled!"
"I'll make some simple arrangements for the work here. The suffering trip will go ahead as planned. I'll go to Tengda Games tomorrow or the day after and study the design plan for Ghost General 2 with you. "
Yu Fei was overjoyed. He immediately went back to organize the relevant information and waited for Bao Xu's arrival.
…
When Yu Fei returned to Tengda Games, he found Hu Xianbin still there. He seemed to be waiting for news of his victory.
Indeed, Hu Xianbin stood up expectantly when he saw Yu Fei. "How was it? What did Brother Bao say? "
His actions and expression were exactly the same as when Yu Fei saw Hu Xianbin return.
However, their roles seemed to have been swapped.
Yu Fei was beaming. "Brother Bao agreed to help!"
"Really? That's great! "
Hu Xianbin almost jumped in joy. Obviously, he was happy from the bottom of his heart.
That was because the game would take at least half a year to develop. If Bao Xu helped here, it meant that he did not have to go to Shennongjia. Of course, they would suffer less under Sa Ziran.
Yu Fei added. "However, it might be slightly different from the script you expected."
Hu Xianbin's smile froze on his face. "Eh? What's the difference? "
Yu Fei said, "Brother Bao will only stay in Jingzhou for a week. He will go to Shennongjia after helping me finish the design draft."
Hu Xianbin froze.
However, he patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was worth it to be able to skip classes for a week.
The first two weeks of this trip to Shennongjia would be wilderness survival while the last two would be sightseeing.
In other words, in these two weeks of wilderness survival, at least the first week would be relatively easy.
Yu Fei continued. "Brother Bao had already planned to give up on going to Shennongjia. However, Boss Pei said that this was serious work. He could not suffer the suffering trip because of the games department. Therefore, although Brother Bao would be late by a week, he would make up for it in the end.
"In other words, the wilderness survival content has been extended to three weeks. The first two weeks and the last one week. The sightseeing time in between will remain the same."
Hu Xianbin's entire body froze.
It was over, it was all over!
Going for wool and coming home shorn!
He had thought that it would be easier if Bao Xu did not go. He did not expect Boss Pei to make it up to him!
Compared to before, there was an extra week of wilderness survival content!
What do you mean by 'the evils you bring upon yourself are the hardest to bear'?
After a long time, he finally came back to his senses and said to Fei, "Brother, let's discuss this. You must keep this a secret for me. Don't let the other people in charge know …"
If others were to find out that Hu Xianbin's suggestion was the reason for the extra week of wilderness survival training, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Hu Xianbin didn't want to be beaten to death in Shennongjia by the angry people in charge …
…
…
October 11th, Thursday.
Pei Qian refreshed IOI's official website as if he was doing his job. Once again, he sent out that soul question.
"What the hell are these people doing?"
"What are Eric and Zhao Xuming thinking?"
"No, I have to make a phone call to ask."
Pei Qian could no longer sit still.
The 'Gods Fantasy, Together at the Peak' event was originally planned to run for two weeks, and it was now nearing its end.
The first week was a holiday. Eric and Zhao Xuming might have been on holiday, or they might not have been sensitive to the changes in the data and had not come up with any plans. That was fine.
However, they were already back to work on the second week.
It's already Thursday, and there's still no movement at all. Isn't something wrong?
The original intention of this event was to inject some fresh blood into IOI. However, because of the loophole, it became a mutual flow between the two games.
A large number of die-hard IOI players had registered GOG accounts in order to receive rewards. They had to go through the newbie process in order to participate in the event and receive rewards.
In the process, they could not avoid playing with some friends in real life.
Many of those die-hard IOI players played GOG in real life. Although they could only start the event after completing the newbie game, there was no level limit for teams in the early stages.
Why not play online with a friend?
In the end, this event became more and more problematic.
On GOG's side, there were fewer players going to IOI's event. Although the event would only end in two or three days, the players who insisted on going online to receive the rewards were just one step away. All the requirements for being online had been met. They were just waiting for the last day to receive the rewards.
On the other hand, IOI's players who came to GOG to play were showing signs of intoxication. They did not seem to want to go back.
Although there was not much difference between the prizes in this event, GOG's daily benefits were much better than IOI's!
In addition, there were more players, and the matching mechanism was more effective. Thus, overall, the gaming experience was better.
All these situations were shown in the data.
It was obvious that IOI's data was still higher than before the event, but it was gradually going downhill. IOI's data would probably fall significantly when the event ended and GOG's players received the rewards as they wished.
On the other hand, GOG's data had already caught up with the original data two days ago. If one considered that some players would return after the event ended, the drainage effect of this event was actually quite obvious.
In other words, it had successfully converted a group of players who were originally extremely loyal to IOI and determined not to touch GOG …
This matter was messed up.
Pei Qian was about to vomit blood. Messed up, everything was messed up!
He had wanted to give IOI a blood transfusion, but why did the blood vessels keep flowing towards him?
So many preventive measures did not seem to work at all!
The most ridiculous thing was that there was clearly a loophole on IOI's side, but they still ignored it. Their slow reaction was simply incomprehensible.
Pei Qian really could not wait any longer. After much hesitation, he finally dialed Eric's number.
It did not matter even if the other party misunderstood. He had to make this call.
Pei Qian would not be able to sleep or eat in peace if he could not figure out the truth. He would die without knowing why.
The phone rang for a while before it connected.
"Hello? Boss Pei. "Eric's voice was calm on the other end of the line.
Pei Qian: "Er …"
Pei Qian would still have something to say if Eric had cursed directly or sounded confused. However, Eric's attitude now seemed to be full of indifference. Pei Qian did not know what to say for a moment.
The two of them remained silent on the phone for a few seconds.
Pei Qian thought about it. He could not let the silence continue. He still had to ask the questions he had thought about.
"Haven't you realized that this event is different from what we planned? That's too strange. "
Pei Qian regretted it the moment he said it.
His words seemed to be a little ambiguous …
Pei Qian's original intention was to ask a question sincerely, but to the other party, these words seemed to carry a sense of tastelessness after a victory.
It seemed like he was saying: I buried a trap in the event. I thought you could find the trap and add a little fun to our battle, but you actually stepped into it just like that?!
However, the words had already been said, and there was no way to explain it.
Indeed, Eric had misunderstood.
"Boss Pei, your move is indeed brilliant. You deliberately led us to change the setting of an event, causing the entire event to produce the opposite result.
"However … I noticed this problem as early as the second day of the event."
Pei Qian was confused. "Why didn't you change it, then?"
Eric smiled helplessly. "Because I can't do anything about it.
"Didn't I already say that when I came back from the last debriefing? I might still be the person-in-charge of IOI in China in name, but I'm actually just a puppet.
"Dayak Corporation wants to further strengthen its control over Finger Games and obtain more benefits from IOI. This event is in line with the expectations of the upper echelons.
"What's more, the situation of IOI's local server is completely different from other regional servers.
"The other regional servers might also have loopholes, but the difference in the number of players is not that huge. IOI's local data is also growing in the process of two-way flow.
"For the upper echelons, there might be some small loopholes in this event, but it is working well. The price and negative impact needed to plug this loophole are too great. The gains do not make up for the losses.
"All the data during the event is good. Who could have predicted that the data would plummet after the event?
"What's more, Boss Pei, not all companies have the same structure as Tengda.
"If someone is determined to plug this loophole, he would have to take full responsibility if something goes wrong in the process. No one would do such a stupid thing.
"If we do nothing, this would be a decision made by everyone. Even if something goes wrong, we would have to bear the responsibility together.
"Looking at the situation in other regions, doing nothing is the best choice.
"Of course, the only exception is the China region. The consequences would be severe because of the huge difference in the number of players on both sides.
"However, I still have to say that I'm just a mouthpiece. I can only choose to report this problem. What's more, this is a global event. It is impossible to change the event in the China region alone. That would make the players feel like they are being treated differently.
"Thus, after I reported this problem, the upper echelons did not give a clear answer. They could not come to a consensus either."
Pei Qian, "…"
He had nothing to say.
Perhaps this was the so-called sickness of a big company …
After being in Tengda for so long, Pei Qian always had the illusion that the will of a certain company was actually based on the will of the leader.
In Tengda, Pei Qian's intentions were often misunderstood by his employees, but he still maintained absolute control over the entire company.
If he wanted to do something, he could basically carry it out very smoothly. Even if it was a more outrageous thing, it would not be a problem.
However, Dayak Corporation was different. They were a huge corporation, and the upper echelons would not pay attention to the activities of a certain subsidiary company.
The directly responsible upper echelons saw that the data of the event in other areas was okay, but they lacked motivation. They did not want to be blamed for acting rashly.
Eric might have realized the problem, but there was nothing he could do while the process was going through.
All in all, the people who understood the problem might not have the final say. The people who had the final say were too far away to realize the seriousness of the problem.
Thus, it dragged on and got stuck here.
That reminded Pei Qian of that famous joke.
In the first stage, we claim that nothing happened.
In the second stage, we say that something might have happened, but we should not have taken action.
In the third stage, we say that we should have taken action, but we could not do anything because of the existence of various problems.
In the fourth stage, we might have been able to do something back then, but it was too late now.
Pei Qian felt that this matter was very unbelievable. "So, this matter is over just like that? Is there no one to be responsible for this? "
Eric, "There is."
Pei Qian, "Who?"
Eric's voice sounded a little helpless. "Me."
