Chapter 207 What to do on Valentine's Day? (6k subscription required)

Shangnan, in the conference room of Guangan Online Game Company.

Two days after the annual meeting, Lv Yao and the management of the "She Le Ge She" project team, the heads of other project teams, and Gan Xiaoxi all gathered in the conference room of Guangan Network.

The reason why Gan Xiaoxi is here is because Gan Xiaoxi works part-time as the human resources director of Guangan Network, and is also responsible for collecting external intelligence for Lu Yao. A lot of intelligence from the outside world and Shenzhen City is collected and summarized by Gan Xiaoxi for Lu Yao.

Gan Xiaoxi played a very important role in the development of Guangan Network. After the annual meeting marketing strategy, Gan Xiaoxi came to the meeting.

At the meeting, Gan Xiaoxi said with a smile: "The marketing strategy of this annual meeting was very successful. Guangan Online Games is now very well-known online. Many passers-by were led by this marketing to download our game."

"At the same time, there was also a discussion about our annual meeting in Shenzhen Penguin Park. Of course, I played a small role in fueling the discussion."

Lu Yao took the lead in applauding Gan Xiaoxi and said, "Our General Manager Gan has worked hard and made great contributions. Let's applaud."

Gan Xiaoxi is a flamboyant and pleasing person by nature, and after being praised by Lu Yao, she immediately raised her chin proudly like a little rooster, accepting everyone's praise.

When it was almost done, she waved her hand and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, it's almost done."

Gan Xiaoxi is very smart. After hanging out with Lu Yao for so long, her way of thinking has gradually started to resemble Lu Yao's. She said, "I just did something insignificant. Our President Lu is really generous."

"This wave of operations at the annual meeting directly taught a lesson to many large domestic companies. Let's applaud~"

After saying that, Gan Xiaoxi imitated Lu Yao's behavior and started to applaud. Everyone found it interesting and started to applaud. Lu Yao glared at Gan Xiaoxi, then immediately waved his hand for everyone to stop.

Gan Xiaoxi made a good meeting seem like a piece of cake.

However, the marketing of this annual meeting was indeed very successful. Although he spent more than 30 million to reward his employees, this 30 million not only brought tangible benefits to the employees, but also boosted their morale.

After the photos of the money distribution at the annual meeting were "accidentally" leaked, the uproar it caused on the Internet enhanced the fame and image of Guang'an Online Game Company, and also attracted a lot of new people to "She Le Ge She".

The most important thing is that the people at the Shenzhen Penguin Park are really getting excited.

Lu Yao was also quite satisfied with this wave of operations.

Afterwards, Lu Yao led everyone to summarize this year's work and also arranged the work after the Spring Festival.

After such a long period of iteration, the gameplay of "Shoot Them" has actually reached its end. The next step is the operational work. Lu Yao emphasized this aspect to the "Shoot Them" studio.

Game play is important, but operation is also a key factor in retaining players.

Chen Li had just received the benefits and had a great time, so Chen Li immediately patted his chest and promised that he would keep a close eye on it and would never let the company down.

On the other hand, there is the MOBA mobile game that will be launched next year.

After nearly a year of research and development, Lu Yao's MOBA mobile game's preliminary development work has been almost ready. With the help of nearly two hundred technical backbones and working overtime day and night, they finally caught up with the time.

What remains is to continuously polish the details and optimize in all aspects. This is a process of continuous improvement. After all, performance is the priority of smartphones in 2015. Even if Apple will release the 6sp, the smoothness of a game, the number of bugs, and the performance occupied are all closely related to the optimization of the game.

Feng Ji gave a guarantee in this regard.

Feng Ji and his team are actually quite restrained in the expression of game content when developing the game. Whether it is the design of the game interface or the game system, they will try to reduce unnecessary content as much as possible to reduce the trouble for the players.

This is also different from the Penguin series or other major domestic game companies.

Most domestic games are eager to put a red dot on every clickable place, forcing you to watch their meaningless activities.

Of course, these activities are actually still good. The most disgusting thing is that they will also put advertisements in their own games, or pop up activity pages for skin draws.

Ten years later, after the once popular game "League of Legends" became a retirement game for many people, the true face of the penguin can no longer be concealed. There are red dots in almost every clickable place on the PC game page, and almost every red dot is trying to trick you into spending money.

The revised loot system has already greatly weakened the progress of players in obtaining game coins, but the penguins have been cut again and again.

Finally, even the loot page puts the redemption mall on the homepage for you.

Penguin’s operations are just short of engraving the three words “quickly recharge” on players’ foreheads.

Lu Yao and his team will not do this. If a game is fortunate enough to become a retirement game for more people, then the game operator should care more about this group of elderly people.

Especially for MOBA games like "League of Legends" which are always new to play and each game offers a different experience, good operations may allow it to prosper again in a specific environment.

Just like another mobile game under Penguin called "Naruto".

As they chatted, they talked about the ecological issues of MOBA games.

Feng Ji is an old internet addict himself and he also loves to play League of Legends, so he knows a lot about the game, especially the player's game experience.

He asked, "Mr. Lu, I have a question. When I play MOBA battles, I always encounter various behaviors that ruin the game experience, such as reckless behavior, intentional killing, etc. These behaviors are difficult to identify, but they particularly affect the game experience."

This problem has actually always existed. During the most popular period of "League of Legends", many regulations were made to address these behaviors, but overall the effect was not significant.

Because the mentality of many players will change with the game.

Lu Yao thought for a moment and said, "Many players will not be punished for their temporary mistakes, but for those players who deliberately mess with people's mentality, I will contact Brother Fu Wang to develop an algorithm to identify them."

"After identifying those who are actually AFK, giving away kills, or deliberately messing up their mentality, we can label them in the game and then match these players who are just having fun and messing up their mentality into the same game."

This is the punishment mechanism that League of Legends came up with a few years later.

Players who don't take the game seriously will be matched with other players who don't take the game seriously.

But Lu Yao wants to go a step further: "This label will be displayed directly above the player's character's head, and their mistakes will also be marked. Isn't it technically difficult to do this?"

As a player, Feng Ji thought this was a good idea, but as a worker, he felt that Lu Yao's proposal was making things difficult for them.

It is not difficult to make the logo appear above the player’s head. This is already an old technology, but this setting requires an additional system to control it, which means that their project team has to work overtime again.

But Feng Ji still said seriously: "I will develop this function as soon as possible."

"Wait!" Gan Xiaoxi suddenly tilted his head and said, "Why does this sound so familiar to me? What kind of Australian strategy is this? Raising a Gu?"

When Lu Yao heard this, he laughed and said, "Yes, it is to raise Gu."

To put it bluntly, the punishment for these toxic players is a thousand cuts to pieces. These people are purely protected by civilized society, so just open a separate area for them and let them play by themselves.

Moreover, with the rise of short video platforms, these people who like to have fun may even post videos of themselves bullying/being abused in the "exile zone" online.

The Internet has always been exaggerated.

No one is interested in content that is not exaggerated, but the exile zone of Brother Xiangxiang, which is full of fun, can undoubtedly provide a lot of fun. Once these things start to become popular on the Internet, many players may deliberately "break the law knowingly" and put their accounts into the exile zone.

When the meeting was almost over, Lu Yao clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's go."

The last meeting before the New Year basically dealt with all the issues that could be dealt with. It was only after the New Year that it was the critical period for Guangan Network and Lu Yao to come to the table for dinner.

After the meeting, everyone packed up their notebooks and laptops and prepared to leave. Gan Xiaoxi pushed her feet and slid over to Lu Yao: "Hey."

Lu Yao was so happy that he almost blurted out "I'm not saying hello."

Although this meme is super old, you can still occasionally see it pop up in later short videos.

Lu Yao looked at her: "What's wrong?"

Gan Xiaoxi said excitedly: "I know you want to achieve a lot of effects and goals with your annual meeting, but the most important one should be the Penguin's "Legend of the Brave" project team. After this wave of annual meetings, they will be in a dilemma."

Lu Yao put his hands on the armrests of the chair and nodded, "Yes, the people on the Penguin side who are not on good terms with Zeng Lun will definitely help us this time, and then Zeng Lun will be in trouble."

Gan Xiaoxi's eyes were shining, and she was full of joy and praised: "You are so insidious~~"

Lu Yao felt uncomfortable after hearing this. He frowned and tilted his head to look at Gan Xiaoxi: "Who taught you to praise people like that? And why are you so excited?"

Gan Xiaoxi waved her hand: "Oh, don't worry about it. I just want to know, if you were targeted like this, what would you do?"

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Conspiracies are used by the weak. Because I am weak, I hide in Shangnan and secretly trip others up. Normally, I would not be in a situation where I would be targeted like that."

When setting a trap for someone, one needs to make specific moves based on the specific situation.

This time, Lu Yao's annual meeting marketing had many goals to achieve, which was killing four birds with one stone. The part targeting Zeng Lun was based on his accurate calculation of Zeng Lun's situation and the system of the large group.

Gan Xiaoxi pouted: "Oh! What if you were Zeng Lun? What would you do?"

Lu Yao thought for a moment and said with a smile: "This year's annual meeting marketing has made people in Penguin Park uneasy. Zeng Lun is neither up nor down, but he still has two ways out."

Gan Xiaoxi tilted her head: "Two?"

How can there be two?
Gan Xiaoxi looked like a little girl who was secretly doing something bad and asked expectantly, "Which two?"

Lu Yao smiled and said, "The first one is very simple, that is to pay out of your own pocket and come out to buy people's hearts."

Zeng Lun couldn't touch the company's money, but his family was rich, so it was not impossible for him to make up the remaining difference.

But there are actually some disadvantages to doing so. One is that it is easy to leave a bad impression on the boss and be suspected of forming a clique; another is that Zeng Lun is willing but Zeng Lun’s family may not be willing; and the last one is that it is easier to be squeezed out later.

After Lu Yao explained the pros and cons, Gan Xiaoxi listened with great interest: "So the second way is better?"

Lu Yao nodded: "Yes, although the first way is very exciting, the investment is too high. At least 20 to 30 million yuan is given away to buy people's hearts. This deal is somewhat uneconomical."

"If it were me, I would ask my boss to put on a show with me, eat a lot of money on the surface, and then arrange for everyone to go for health care together." Gan Xiaoxi thought about it and raised her fist to hit Lu Yao's shoulder excitedly: "Oh, you are so bad!"

It was so bad that she felt itchy inside.

But I have to say that Lu Yao’s later method is indeed the best one.

Ask your boss to act out a scene with you, let your boss scold you, build up your image of "speaking for the people", and then take everyone to the health check-up. With the bonus of the previous image and the "dirty social interaction" like the health check-up, it will be easy to cover up the matter, and even establish your reputation in the project team.

It was clearly a target of pressure from both outside and inside, but Lu Yao was able to turn things around and gain benefits from it.

Gan Xiaoxi propped up her chin and asked, "Do you think Zeng Lun would do this? Zeng Lun's family should be able to help him come up with a solution."

Lu Yao smiled and said, "I really hope he can do that."

Gan Xiaoxi got excited again: "Ah? This is also a trap?"

Lu Yao said happily: "The second way is essentially a deception. If Zeng Lun really wants to do this, isn't he deceiving people?"

Gan Xiaoxi suddenly realized what was going on, then bit her lip and looked at Lu Yao up and down, wondering how could this man be so bad, he was almost evil, and he had so many tricks to cheat people.

Then she immediately started thinking: "But if we want to get evidence to prove that Zeng Lun is acting with his boss, this is a bit difficult and not easy to do."

Lu Yao looked at Gan Xiaoxi in surprise, thinking to himself, oh no, how could he have turned Gan Xiaoxi, who used to be sunny, lively and cheerful, clear and silly like a college student, into what she is now?

But seeing Gan Xiaoxi enjoying it, Lu Yao smiled and said, "Why do you need evidence?"

Trust is a strange thing. It takes a long time to build it, but doubting it only takes a gentle push.

What's more, once the rumors appear, there will naturally be other people in the Penguin Park to assist Lu Yao.

This is human nature.

Gan Xiaoxi propped up his chin and pondered: "That's true, but if you want to do things well, you still need something. Anyway, don't worry about it, I'll do it~~"

At this moment in the conference room, the look of Gan Xiaoxi and Lu Yao planning how to trick someone together was a true interpretation of "being in cahoots with each other".

……

After a busy day at the company, Lu Yao was ready to go back home feeling tired.

But before he even got home, he received a message from Jian Xiaojie: "Come to my place after work. I'll celebrate Valentine's Day with you in advance~~"

Lu Yao was happy: "You are so thoughtful."

Jian Xiaojie replied immediately: "[rolling eyes][rolling eyes] Who is like you? Valentine's Day is coming and you don't even know how to express your gratitude."

Lu Yao smiled and replied, "I'll be there later."

Jian Xiaojie: “OK~~”

After finishing his chat with Jian Xiaojie, Lu Yao returned to Sister Wang's apartment, but Sister Wang was not at home tonight and did not send him a message. Lu Yao suddenly thought: "Could Sister Wang be at Jian Xiaojie's place, preparing to give me a surprise?"

This surprise is pretty easy to guess.

But even if he guessed it, Lu Yao had no intention of exposing it.

He took another shower at home, even did some skin care and facial treatments, then picked out a nice outfit, including a black cashmere coat, and prepared to go out.

But before going out, Lu Yao went to a shop and bought two large bouquets of flowers, and then drove to Jian Xiaojie's secret residence.

Lu Yao knew the password to the door. After entering the password and pushing the door open, the single-story house was dim as usual, but with many more candlesticks than usual, and fresh flowers placed everywhere in the room, giving it a hint of a candlelight dinner.

In the living room of the room, only Jian Xiaojie was leaning on the sofa.

Tonight, Jian Xiaojie was wearing a backless, hip-hugging long skirt. Her beautiful back and waistline looked like a piece of fine Hetian jade, emitting a soft light in the dim room.

Her hair was also carefully groomed, with slightly curly long hair swept aside. She had almost no decoration on her body except for a long broken brick earring on her ear that reflected the candlelight, emitting a bright and blurred glow.

But such a dazzling light is just a foil for Jian Xiaojie.

Jian Xiaojie, who was dressed up carefully, exudes a breathtaking charm tonight.

After hearing Lv Yao coming in, Jian Xiaojie turned to look at the entrance and said with a smile: "Are you vulgar? You only know how to send two bouquets of flowers on Valentine's Day? Eh? Two bouquets? You know Sister Shu is here."

Lu Yao smiled and said, "I just made a random guess. Even if you didn't guess right, I'll give you two."

Jian Xiaojie smiled and said, "You really know how to behave."

Lu Yao looked around and asked, "Where's Sister Wang?"

Jian Xiaojie turned her head towards the bedroom and raised her chin: "Maybe she's shy."

While Lu Yao and Jian Xiaojie were talking, Sister Wang walked out of the room a little shyly, and then Lu Yao's eyes were attracted by Sister Wang's outfit tonight.

Sister Wang’s daily outfits are mostly dignified and decent, which can just show her mature charm and make her look decent and generous.

But tonight Sister Wang changed her usual style.

She was wearing a dress with very little fabric tonight, with silk ribbons used as links from top to bottom. Her snow-white skin had faint lines of flesh under the silk ribbons, which contrasted nicely with the other, making Sister Wang look extremely charming tonight.

So, they are the "gift" for early Valentine's Day?
Lu Yao looked at Sister Wang and exclaimed sincerely: "It's really beautiful."

Sister Wang's face was a little shy under the candlelight. Jian Xiaojie stood up from the sofa and swayed to Sister Wang's side. She turned around and looked at Lu Yao: "Why, am I not good-looking?"

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Of course they are all beautiful. I also brought gifts to thank you for celebrating Valentine's Day with me in advance."

Jian Xiaojie waved her hand: "I know you bought flowers."

But Lu Yao just smiled, then pulled out his right hand, hovered over the two bunches of red roses and snapped his fingers.

"Snapped--"

"Oh!"

As Lu Yao's fingers snapped suddenly, the flowers in his arms suddenly burst into flames. In an instant, it seemed as if brilliant fireworks bloomed in Lu Yao's arms. The splendor of that moment even illuminated the entire room.

People are always fascinated by brilliant and short-lived things, so the fireworks from Lu Yao's snap of his fingers were reflected in the pupils of Sister Wang and Jian Xiaojie, and also in their hearts.

While they were stunned, standing in the sky full of falling stars, Lu Yao smiled at Wang Shu and Jian Xiaojie and said, "Happy Valentine's Day."

Even if this is in advance.

When Lu Yao said that, Lu Yao in the sparks was tall and handsome, with a faint smile on his face, and the surroundings around him were so dark and deep.

This is a scene that only appears in TV dramas, okay?

Sister Wang, who already had a memory filter, was stunned at this moment. Jian Xiaojie also leaned against Wang Shu, tilted her head and sighed: "Oh~ or else Sister Shu, you have good taste."

Is this younger brother too good at flirting these days?

Lv Yao has been so busy with work recently that she almost forgot that he can perform magic.

For them, higher emotional value is the best gift.

But Lu Yao prepared more than just a magic trick. He walked through the falling sparks and handed the two boxes hidden under the magic bouquet to Jian Xiaojie and Wang Shu respectively: "This is the gift."

They opened the gift boxes and found an identical diamond necklace in both boxes.

But under the diamond necklace, there are two black hearts lying flat on the dark red satin.

Sister Wang picked up the necklace and said happily, "What a beautiful necklace, but what's that underneath?"

Old player Jian Xiaojie understood it at a glance. She gave Sister Wang a sly smile and said, "This is the side dish for tonight."

Wang Shu: “Ah?”

Jian Xiaojie put the gift aside, walked into the kitchen, took out the things she had prepared, and returned to the living room. She smiled at Lu Yao and said, "I recently learned how to make cakes, so it's a good opportunity for you to come and try my craftsmanship."

As she said that, Jian Xiaojie used the kitchen knife to cut the ribbon around Sister Wang's neck, and the long ribbon dress with smooth texture suddenly fell down silently like a curtain of water.

Obviously.

Sister Wang and Jian Xiaojie have practiced this many times.

When Jian Xiaojie came over with a knife, Sister Wang held herself tight and didn't move. After Jian Xiaojie cut the ribbon, Sister Wang turned her face away and closed her eyes.

The temperature on her face was now so hot that her complexion looked too rosy.

But Jian Xiaojie was immersed in making the cake. She put the knife aside, picked up the spatula, picked up the cream and spread it directly on Sister Wang's body.

Every time the spatula slid across, Sister Wang would shudder...
