I'm just sorry for plagiarism

"Brother Ming, this is our collection of game evaluations from players this quarter."

The second in command tremblingly pulled out from the side a copy of the audience feedback letter that had been printed long ago but had been afraid to hand it in.

Handed it over carefully.

Looking at the several big handprints on the paper that were scratched out due to the entanglement of the deliverers.

And among them, many players' bad words.

Xia Ming was stunned, completely lost in thought.

Chapter 9 9, the reason

As the Spring Festival approaches, even the taxis are on holiday early.This made the already sparse road even less crowded.

I drove to the Gelan Bridge branch, and it was about one o'clock in the afternoon when I got off the car. This time, which should have been a lunch break, was different from the harmonious and harmonious atmosphere before, and the atmosphere of the whole company seemed particularly strange.

Most of the employees are buried in their heads, carefully proofreading the densely packed codes on the screen.Even the novice female apprentices who used to be lazy in the office once in a while because of their status as little girls, are now working hard, with no intention of taking a break.

The entire studio was immersed in this eerie silence.

Although Lixia vaguely felt that weird atmosphere, seeing the serious work attitude of her employees, the eldest lady nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad, I still like your hard-working spirit." So she slapped her hands maturely, but drew the attention of everyone present, "But have you eaten yet?"

A group of people looked at each other, as if they were preoccupied, and they didn't dare to speak loudly.

The eldest lady didn't talk too much nonsense, and waved her hand, "Then let's eat first, work matters are about combining work and rest. I'm not a black-hearted boss who oppresses you. If any of you collapses, then How can I afford it?"

In the later generations, there are often news about programmers being admitted to the hospital because of overtime work and other reasons, but the eldest lady is careful.

As a result, the staff still looked hesitant to speak.

Li Xia was surprised, "What's the matter, do you want me to pay for the treat?"

The programmers stood up one by one, talking and walking towards the outside of the house.

Li Xia nodded in satisfaction, and then gently pulled Xia Ming's cousin's arm in the crowd.

……

Although it was lunch time, it was naturally impossible for Miss Dai, who had eaten at home early, to come to this subordinate for lunch.

The takeaway ordered by the eldest cousin did not arrive, so the two sat in the cubicle, with steaming coffee brought by the second in command.

Cousin Xia Ming seems to be the same as before, with a slovenly appearance, no matter how handsome he is, it will definitely be covered up by him.

But then again, like the stuffy cigarette after cigarette, the eldest lady has really rarely seen him pose in the past few months.

I vaguely remember the sad face of my big cousin when I had nowhere to go when I was crazy about joy.

It's just that with the launch of the new game in the past few months, the response among players has been good. Although Xia Ming still looks unkempt, he rarely sighs.

"What's the matter? Shuang hit the eggplant." Looking at Li Xia, he felt amused, "What difficulties did you encounter?"

"It's true that many important events have happened..." Xia Ming's eldest cousin hesitated to speak.

The eldest lady smiled and said, "What else is there to be polite to me? Let's just talk about it."

Cousin Xia Ming thought for a while, and slowly turned on the computer on the next table. There were colorful numbers on it, and two rows of reports were being displayed.

Just look at the soaring function line on the left when the big cousin pointed his finger, "This is the number of hits on our official website this month."

"Could it be that the popularity is not enough, and it's starting to fall back?" The eldest lady wondered, looked at the screen, but her eyes lit up again, "Not bad?"

Xia Ming smiled wryly in his heart.

This expression is exactly the same as the one he showed when the second in command confessed to him.

"Then don't worry, and then look back."

Well, this excuse is exactly the same as the previous plot.

"What about this picture?" The eldest lady tapped another data picture on the desktop that was as straight as the sea with her extremely slender fingers.

The past half month has been quite busy, and the person who went to the host's house to ask the west's house did not pay much attention to physical maintenance. The nails on his hands were a little long, and he didn't know if it was more girlish.

"This is... our download traffic statistics for this month."

Hearing the big cousin's explanation, Li Xia blinked slightly, as if he was carefully identifying the specific numbers annotated next to the statistical chart.

"Last month's downloads were over [-], this month... only less than [-]?" She swallowed, her eyes full of surprise, "You're not kidding me, are you?"

"Do you think I dare to joke with you about this kind of thing?" The eldest cousin looked at the eldest lady bitterly.

Answering questions in the form of rhetorical questions like this, using questions to answer questions, and it is a topic between subordinates and superiors, is actually somewhat offensive.

But it seemed that Xia Ming had a lot of resentment in his heart, and when he spoke now, he subconsciously took the attitude of asking the teacher for his crime.

Sure enough, the eldest lady stroked her extremely clean chin with her hand, and after a long while, she suddenly realized the question, "When did the data drop suddenly?"

Xia Ming took a deep look at his little cousin.

Then sighed.

"Just half a month ago, after we uploaded the advertising video recorded by Cheng Qiqi to the homepage...just a few days ago."

The eldest lady was slightly taken aback, then nodded belatedly.

"So that's how it is..."

Originally, her purpose of finding Cheng Qiqi's agency was good, but she didn't expect it to be a coincidence. The release date of "Dream" happened to be around the same time as the game commercial was launched.

So with the "Dream" live-action movie becoming popular, Liu Yingying's popularity has also been brought to the highest peak.

Discussion posts about this money-making masterpiece can be seen everywhere on many online forums.

Gorgeous storyboards, superbly crafted plot settings, and rave reviews.

There is no need to mention these.

It's just that since Liu Yingying was mentioned, he would naturally think of her old enemy, Cheng Qiqi.

Originally, the two are also very similar in terms of artist development. They both debuted as young singers at similar ages, so subconsciously, even entertainment magazines will compare the two of them for publicity.

Now that there is a comparison, there will naturally be disputes.

Originally, with the end of the Asian King of Songs contest, the fans of the two families had been arguing for nearly half a year.

And with the release of "Dream", Liu Yingying's popularity has brought another climax.

It can even be said that the amount of support for who wins and loses on both sides is already extremely obvious to the naked eye.

As a result, under such a huge disadvantage, the online game endorsement advertisement that suddenly appeared on the shelves without warning a few years ago, and the shoddy promotional words became the last straw that crushed the fans.

On the screen, Cheng Qiqi was wearing a custom-made armor from the game crew, with a pleasant smile and an incomparably sweet smile, but the perfunctory introduction, which was as boring as reciting lines, did reduce a lot of goodwill.

After all, isn't this a bad idea from the eldest lady?

Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to let Cheng Qiqi draw a relationship with "Sky City Warriors", but unexpectedly, he was defeated by his old work instead.

Sad.

Originally, the reason why the two families quarreled endlessly was because of the unwarranted plagiarism issue.

Some of Cheng Qiqi's and Liu Yingying's songs are somewhat similar in terms of rhyme and rhythm, and it's not clear whether the composers were lazy or not.And in a certain entertainment talent show, Liu Yingying said half jokingly and half seriously, "I think Qiqi's songs are indeed similar to my old songs to some extent." It completely became the trigger search.

As a result, although she is pretty in private, Liu Yingying, who is quite popular on the screen, takes the upper hand. The appearance of "Dream" has paved the way for him to wantonly, and Cheng Qiqi's various actions during this period have actually reduced a lot of points.

Not to mention that the exposure rate caused by Xuezang is not obvious, even the shoddy advertisement seems to silently explain to people the greedy heart hidden under the appearance of the young and beautiful girl.

Take money.

If it wasn't for money, why would he accept such small advertisements with unknown identities?

What's more, even those fans who used to help Cheng Qiqi to speak were silently slapped on the face.

Since my idol loves money so much, I guess he can do the plagiarism, right?

As a result, those players also reported all kinds of bad comments one after another. Apart from complaining about the instability of the server, most of them criticized Cheng Qiqi's design and cheered for Liu Yingying.

"Goodbye, Cheng Qiqi. From now on, you will turn your fans around. I didn't expect you to love money so much."

"At the beginning, I was foolishly feeling wronged for you, but now that I think about it, it's no wonder that the brokerage company hides you, because you really don't deserve it!"

Comments like these are like snowflakes flying all over the sky, filling the entire game feedback column.

This menacing momentum is about to turn the official forum of "Sky City Warriors" into one of the hottest entertainment gossip channels of later generations.

Xia Ming saw it, and was naturally speechless for a while.Although he knew from the beginning that it would not be a good thing to find third-tier celebrities to accept commercials, he did not expect the retribution to come so quickly.

Children these days can do anything to chase stars, but it just so happens that the female star who is the opposite is actually the superstar Liu Yingying who has benefited immensely from "Dream".

Therefore, "Sky City and Warriors" fluttered, fluttered, and had no temper.After all, this kind of fighting online games just serve the audience of these young people who love star chasing.

"Boss, please tell us what we should do." Thinking of this, Xia Ming couldn't help but tapped on the table, taking a questioning attitude, "This is also a question that the employees of the company want to ask you."

Still the same sentence, the game I have painstakingly created is about to be on the verge of collapse again, and it is absolutely impossible to say that there are no complaints.

Originally, with the traffic of their "Sky City Warriors", even if they don't engage in heresy, relying on the excellent game quality to interact with the fans on Venus, although the game can't be a big hit, they can barely survive as a third-rate company no matter what.

But now, not to mention the bad reviews, this is simply a good hand that beats the stink.

How can the future go?

If it's their game company's business, maybe it's okay, the big deal is to send an apology letter, and then modify the game content and it's over.

But this involves the problem of the advertising agent, and the reputation of the entire game is completely rotten. Even if the advertising agent is changed now, and the poster and video of Cheng Qiqi on the home page are downloaded in time, it is estimated that it will still only be on the wall The name of the grass.Still can't get the player's understanding.

Dead end.

Maybe [-] downloads can be supported for a while, but obviously, this number will gradually shrink in the next few months.At that time, without the support of fresh blood, the monthly income may not be worth the maintenance fee.

I can't make ends meet.

It was only half a year ago that Rhapsody Entertainment, the predecessor of Xia Ming's studio, collapsed, and the scene is vivid in my memory.At this moment, the eldest cousin felt a little nervous.

Could that familiar scene be repeated again?

But he didn't expect Li Xia to sigh with relief after a moment of contemplation when faced with the big cousin's questioning?

"What do you mean, do you feel lucky?" Xia Ming raised his eyebrows, his face full of disbelief. "There's nothing to be thankful about."

"Yeah? I think this data is pretty good. No one plays it, isn't it pretty good?"

The eldest lady smiled, "At first, I was also taken aback by this statistic, but thinking about it carefully, this sudden rush to the street is exactly what I want."

"What do you mean?" Xia Ming was taken aback, thinking he had heard it wrong.

How can there be any reason for the old owner to hope that his own industry will die down?

Wouldn't that be a traitor?

"I still don't understand?" However, the eldest lady didn't answer, but she was under the eyes of several people who didn't know why.

He lightly sipped the coffee on the table that was still smelling slightly hot.

Slowly dropped a sentence of unknown meaning.

"Let them quarrel, the more violent the quarrel, the less people will play the game, it represents the future, how fierce the popularity of our "Sky City Warriors" will rebound."

Chapter 10 10, which pot does not open which pot to carry

If the Spring Festival is one of the most important festivals for Chinese people, then the New Year's Eve the night before is the best time to call friends and relatives.

There is no other reason, and there are only so many opportunities to meet each other for a reason a year, which naturally becomes a hurdle in the hearts of many people.

Whether it's a family reunion, or returning home, showing off your achievements throughout the year in front of relatives and friends, anyway, the meaning of New Year's Eve is in the hearts of many people, and it is definitely an extremely precious existence.

And the so-called New Year's Eve refers to the evening before New Year's Eve, and its meaning is still extraordinarily grand.

On such a day of school vacation, even Father Xia, who had been working hard in the office for weeks, got off work early.In the evening, when I saw a few more pairs of men's leather shoes in the bustling room, I couldn't help being stunned.

"Big Brother and Second Brother? I didn't expect to come here so early."

Two old men about 50 years old, with high-spirited faces and neat suits, were still living in the second floor of Xia Dae. I don’t know what they were discussing. Pass.

In the end, they saw clearly who the person was, and the two of them paused for a while.He greeted him with a smiling face.

"It's Xiaolang." As the eldest brother, Xia Dahai walked over with a smile, patted his third brother's arm, looked up and down, and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, he's still such a good-looking talent."

"That is to say, third brother, if you hadn't helped me get through the upper and lower levels of West Street, my restaurant would have closed down a long time ago." Dad said thanks.

"Xiaolang, you have really done a lot of practical things for us." The eldest brother couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
