Soling Internet Cafe

Chang Youxin was woken up by the phone ringing.

The eldest young master usually has a good temper, but his temper is more serious when he wakes up. When he was woken up, he almost threw the phone away. Fortunately, he saw the three words on the screen.

"Hey, Chu Lingya, you have the guts to call me!" Chang Yu's teeth itch with hatred, it's okay if he doesn't mention it, but once he mentions it, he will remember the matter of pretending to be a game last night.He didn't find out until he found that he couldn't install it no matter what he did, and then searched the Internet. It turned out that the game trial disk had special restrictions, and one serial number could only be installed on one machine.That's what Chu Lingya learned. Obviously, this kid already knew about it. The reason why he did that was probably because of his "first love god".

Seeing color forgets righteousness!Damn it!

The voice from Chu Lingya's other end was very serious: "Old Chang, you've answered my call, let me confirm, you probably can't install Bai Jingjing's game now, right?"

Chang Yuxin has lost his temper, what can you say to a person who directly said "you have seen the bad thing I did".Chang Yuxin said: "You know it too."

Chu Lingya said: "It's my fault for not telling you clearly, I apologize to you. But Lao Chang, there is a problem with that game, you don't want to play, find a time to send the disk over, if you have friends around I can trust you even when I’m playing that game, and you remind them, just don’t play it for the time being, and uninstall the installed game as soon as possible, I’m not kidding!”

When Chu Lingya was serious, something really went wrong, so Chang Yuxin quickly became serious: "What's going on?"

"There is a problem with the game, in that regard."

Chang Yuxin probably knew about Chu Lingya's special features. Although he was not completely clear about it, he also understood that the "that aspect" he mentioned was not an aspect that could be explained by materialism.

"what is the problem?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, but it's probably speculated that that game may have a bad influence on the people who play it. Do you know the developer of that game?"

Chang Yuxin had already reached out his hand to go to the game board on the table, but after thinking about it, he took his hand back.

"Is it okay for me to take that game disk now?"

"If you don't install it, don't play it, it's fine for now."

Chang Yuxin was relieved, he had witnessed the miracle of Chu Lingya.When they were in junior high school, Chu Lingya would always do strange things, sometimes talking into the air, and sometimes pulling him around suddenly.Others were a little afraid to approach him, only Chang You had a big heart and got along well with Chu Lingya.Once Chang Yuxin was planning to go out to play football at night, but suddenly received a call from Chu Lingya, who asked him to wait for half an hour before going out, without giving any reason.At first, Chang Yuxin didn't plan to abide by it, but after thinking about waiting for half an hour, I just waited for half an hour, and there was no loss.Chang Yuxin didn't know until the next day that during that half hour, a serious car accident happened on his way to the stadium. According to the time calculation, if Chang Yuxin didn't wait for that half hour, he might also be killed or injured. list.Things like this happened a lot later.

To be honest, Chang Yu was a materialist in his mind, but this did not prevent him from believing in Chu Lingya.

Chang Yuxin's materialism counts in this way. He relies on practice to understand the world. Since at least seven or eight of the ten things Chu Lingya said are correct, it means that Chu Lingya is trustworthy.As for how his conclusions were deduced, it was not important to Chang Yuxin.

Chang Yuxin took the game disk on the table and took a look, and found the name of the publisher: "Zhixu Information Technology Co., Ltd."

Chu Lingya said: "Please help me check the employees of that company to see if any accidents have happened to the staff responsible for the Bai Jingjing series. I know that a programmer named Wu Zhongyou died suddenly at the end of last year. Others There may be other people who have had accidents, but I don't know the exact list."

Chang Yuxin said: "Okay, I'll find someone to understand."

"In addition, if your Public Security Bureau has received some strange calls to the police recently, please help me to pay attention and contact me in time."

"What kind of alarm call is considered strange?" Chang Yu asked, "You have to give me some reference."

"Sorry, I can't make a conclusion now. There is still too little information. It may be disappearance, sudden mass disease, etc. In short, it must be something that is counterintuitive, and it must have happened to the person who played that game."

"Then there must be nearly 300 people." Chang Yuxin preliminarily estimated the number of people who attended the press conference yesterday, "Okay, I understand, I will send you the disk later."

Chu Lingya hung up the phone after explaining a few more words, seeming very busy.

What happened?Chang Yuxin was thinking about it when the phone vibrated again.At first, he thought that Chu Lingya had missed something, but when he picked it up, he realized that someone had sent him a WeChat message.

Jing: [Good morning, I am Jing who met you at Bai Jingjing's event yesterday, and there is news about Roy's debut set that you were looking for. 】

Chang Yuxin's eyes lit up immediately, and the nervousness just now was thrown out of the blue.

Youxin: [Really?Great, how much can I buy, I will transfer the money to you! 】

Jing: [Is it so generous, you are not afraid that I am an Internet fraudster? [smile]]

Bai Jing on the other end typed these words quickly while stirring the coffee in the cup, with a smile on his face.

Bai Jing's private account only has a dozen or so friends. The profile picture is a white background with the word "Jing" in a brush. It is extremely simple. Lin Yingzhi even joked that he is a middle-aged veteran cadre, while the profile picture of the person opposite is a gaudy one. The silhouette of skateboarding, it seems that the protagonist of the silhouette should be himself.

Youxin: [cough, we are in this business, we see a lot of scammers, you don't look like that. [proud]】

Jing: [What do you do?Do you work in the financial system? 】

You Xin: [Speaking out, I'm not afraid of you, brother, I'm a criminal police officer. [Mighty] [Gold Teeth] [Smoke]]

Bai Jing froze for a moment, it was really hard to imagine that lively boy who looked like Roy was actually a criminal policeman and called himself "brother".

Jing: [Are you older than me? 】

You Xin: [Hey, that's not what it means, our team is used to speaking like this, they all call me brother.Sorry, inadvertently took advantage of you haha. 】

Youxin: [By the way, have you got the trial version of Bai Jingjing's game yet, don't play it for now!No, never play! 】

Competition: [? 】

Jing: [I didn't have time to play. 】

Bai Jing looked up at his bookshelf, where there were stacks of game demo installation disks stacked on it, but he himself didn't like playing games very much, so he didn't touch them again except after watching the demonstration by the people in the working group during the meeting. Pass.

Jing: [What's wrong with the game, why can't I play it? [confuse]】

Youxin: 【I don't know how to tell you, anyway, you listened to me right.Just play a few days later than others, and I will tell you when I have definite news. 】

Bai Jing thought for a moment, then tapped on the keyboard.

Jing: [Okay, listen to you.How can I get you the clothes, why don't we meet each other? 】

Chang Yuxin was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward.

You Xin: [Yes, yes, but the time we will be detectives is uncertain, let me think about it first...]

Jing: [Are you free today? 】

Chang Yuxin was really shocked.Out of print Roy suit hey!When it was first released, it was not sure how many fans Roy would have, and the size of the clothes was not easy to control, and the cost was relatively high, so according to the information from everyone 818 later, only about 300 sets were released in total.Later, after the role of Roy became popular, this suit became a treasure that is hard to find. In the market, people often see second-hand listings, and the prices are ridiculously expensive. It's not the right version, or it's just hanging up to look good, the purpose is to sell other things.

Chang Yu is convinced, even if the other party's relatives work in a publishing house, can they get it so quickly?

He won't really meet a liar, will he?

You Xin: [I'm on vacation today, so I'm really free. 】

Jing: [I have some work to do in the morning, let's meet in the afternoon, where do you live, I'll pick you up. 】

Chang Yuxin: "..."

You Xin: [This is too much trouble for you, why don't we meet at my friend's shop at 01:30 in the afternoon?I send you the address. 】

As Chang Yu said, he called up the address of Saoling Internet Cafe, copied and pasted it.

Youxin: 【My friend works as a network administrator there, the environment is good, and the drinks are delicious, I invite you! 】

Jing: [Okay, see you at 01:30, I'll get busy first. 】

You Xin: [Wait, you haven't told me how much the clothes cost! 】

How much?Bai Jing really didn't know how to decide. It was a sudden idea on his mind to make Roy's clothes, and he paid for them personally. He wanted to keep them as souvenirs. Because there was a limit on the minimum order quantity, he only made 300 sets, and he kept them privately. 1 set, the publisher originally kept 10 sets, and all the others were sold. After Roy became popular, several sets of samples from the publishing house were given out on various occasions, either through lottery draws, or through cooperative gifts. Lin Yingzhi's set was the last set, and the one he prepared for Chang Yuxin this time was actually him. own private collection.

In other words, it is impossible to buy other real Roy suits on the market at present, as for how to set the price...

Bai Jing thought about it for a long time, and vaguely remembered that the cost at that time was about 400-500.

Jing: [To make friends, I'll charge you 400. 】

Chang Yuxin: "..."

Youxin: [Brother, is the one in your hand the real thing? 】

Jing: [Huh? 】

Youxin: [Did you know that high imitations on the market have already sold 5000 sets? 】

Jing on the other end was silent for a while, and just when Chang Yuxin thought that the other party had been exposed and blocked him directly, a video came over from the other end.In the video, the computer screen with the current date and time was first displayed, and then moved to a gift box placed on the chair next to it.

Chang Yuxin's breathing stopped.

He watched the famous but never-before-seen gift box appear on the screen of his mobile phone. A good-looking hand pulled off the ribbon and opened the lid of the gift box, revealing the Roy dog ​​head suit that he had always dreamed of. There is also a collection card with the autograph of "Bai Jing" on it. Jin Cancan's collection number is: No.1...

Carefully: [! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! 】

Chang Yuxin: "Fuck, why do you have the number one collection card? It's unrealistic!" He couldn't help but yelled directly.

A lazy voice came from the other end: "Because my sister knows Teacher Bai."

Chang Yuxin was about to cry, so he went to the bathroom, what kind of fairy thigh did he know!

Chang Yuxin: "This, this suit, are you really willing to sell it to me for 400?"

Bai Jing: "Yes."

Chang Yuxin: "You're not lying? You won't give me something else then, right?" He was so shocked that he forgot to hide his doubts.

Bai Jing didn't think it was disobedient, but felt that Chang Yuxin was as frank as Roy: "You can inspect the goods on site. By the way, you may not know that the official website of the publishing house actually provides a limited number of peripheral product verification services. If you are worried, Then you can ask them for help.”

Chang Yuxin: "...Brother, you are so kind!!! I love you to death!!!"

Bai Jing was stunned for a moment, and then raised the corners of his lips: "Then please treat me to something good this afternoon."

In Chang Yu's heart-to-heart "good, good", the two ended the communication.

Bai Jing returned to the table and opened the drawing board.Although the press conference of Bai Jingjing's 5th anniversary special chapter has been held, and some advance reports about the special chapter have been released at the meeting, but in fact, this new book representing the 5th anniversary celebration has not yet been finished, which is why , The signing at the press conference was a sideshow. The signing refers to the previous books signed, and the sale refers to the pre-sale of the new book. It is true, but the readers are only provided with game discs on site, and the pre-sale is just registration. Just got the new book early.

Of course Bai Jing himself didn't want to do this, but he couldn't help it, he was in a bottleneck.

After Roy left at the age of 16, Bai Jing began to try to create; at the age of 20, the Bai Jingjing series took shape and was favored by the magazine platform.

Lin Lin finally figured it out, Bai Jing has spent nearly nine years on this series.At the beginning, he was full of passion, although he was a bit clumsy, but there was no lack of sparkle. As more and more readers of Bai Jingjing’s series, the publishing house’s evaluation of him became higher and higher, and Bai Jing’s comic skills became more and more proficient. But I found that my creation seemed to be more and more "craftsmanlike".

This seems to be an unavoidable hurdle, and it is true for every creator.

When you are not famous, you can create whatever you want. You can create whatever you want. There are more.On the one hand, it’s hard to tell everyone, and it’s hard to tell when a detailed setting will explode, causing readers’ dissatisfaction; on the other hand, since the publisher has given you resources to support you, then you must bring sufficient returns to investors. Coupled with the high degree of attention, it is easy to be singled out and blamed for mistakes. In this way, the restrictions become more and more, and the burden becomes heavier.

This one can’t be drawn, and readers don’t like it; that element needs to be added, and the investor hopes to have it; and the plot is not easy to pass, and it will be difficult to adapt other forms at that time, please adjust it as much as possible... There are too many voices, Bai The pen in Jing's hand gradually became heavier and heavier. He also tried to resist, but every time he let out the news, the feedback he got was always unsatisfactory. Afterwards, Lin Yingzhi had to talk to him and ask him to give up.Bai Jing finally accepted the reality, his speed is still very fast, and the level of delivery is as high as ever. Although it is inevitable that he will be scolded as "exhausted", as long as the Bai Jingjing series releases new works, it will always be active in the top five of the major lists.

The higher you stand, the stronger the wind, and the worse it will be if you fall.

So, go inside and don't stand on the side.

Bai Jing has always thought that he is a rational person who can balance all aspects. It wasn't until he started writing the special chapter for the fifth anniversary that he suddenly realized that he couldn't draw anything.

Only a few core personnel in the publishing house that signed him knew about this matter, and even Bai Jingqiu's assistant didn't know that such a thing happened to Mr. Bai.Because Bai Jing was still painting, the task was sent to them through the Internet.They don't know that what Bai Jing is doing now is just copying the scriptures - when the publishing house found out that his situation was wrong, it extracted a few highlights of the best-selling books in the Bai Jingjing series in the past, smashed them together, and reorganized them into a new book. Please ask Bai Jing to create according to the results of big data analysis.

Bai Jing feels that this is not called creation, but drawing.

Just like when I was a child, I folded a piece of sulfuric acid paper on the picture book, and carefully followed the outline, for fear that any line would exceed the line, and it would not be accurate enough.

never mind.Thinking of the appointment in the afternoon, Bai Jing picked up the pen, calmed down his thoughts, and started working.In about ten days, the new book will be finished.

He can too, temporarily relieved.
