You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 141: The Evolution of the Boss Simulator (Please Order)
Soon, #苏宇凡代容Boss Simulator# topped the Weibo entertainment hot search list.

Later, taking advantage of the popularity, the official Boss Simulator released an interview video with Su Yufan:
"Hello everyone, I'm Aiden Su Yufan.

I am very happy to reach this cross-border cooperation with Youyi Company.

In fact, I have been a player of Youyi Company for many years. I have been addicted to "Fantasy Westward Journey" since I was in junior high school.

So this time, I also visited the project team as a player.

As everyone knows, I have served as the National Civilization Promotion Ambassador of the Performing Arts Industry Association for three consecutive years, so I attach great importance to the careful consideration of the game's lines.

Through communicating with the members of the project team, I learned that the game lines of our boss simulator are very culturally rich, so there is no need to worry about vulgar words being said in the game and leading children astray.

This is completely different from some games on the market whose main selling point is vulgar verbal attacks.

In addition, my own virtual image will also appear in the game. You can interact with me in the game and unlock my exclusive story missions.

At the same time, the game’s prop store will also feature exclusive costumes and game props from my movie “The Starry Road to Counterattack”.

On September 9th, the day of the open beta test of "Boss Simulator", I will appear in the official live broadcast room of the game to interact with you and share my gaming experience!

Please remember, we'll see you on September 9th!"

……

After this interview video was broadcast, it once again topped the Weibo entertainment hot search list.

A large number of Su Yufan's fans left messages of support, and the number of comments on Weibo quickly exceeded 10.

However, many gamers, especially fans of Taoyuan Township, noticed something was wrong.

They left messages:

"You can promote your own game, so what? Why do you think it's a big deal to criticize other games?"

"That's right, once the keyword 'mouth cannon' comes out, everyone knows which game you're referring to."

"You're corrupting children! I suggest you stay away from games and go watch BabyBus instead."

However, as soon as these comments were posted, they were instantly besieged by thousands of Su Yufan's fans.

Within one minute of the comment being posted, there were over 100 rebuttal posts on Weibo.

"Our brother Su Yufan is an artist with a clear conscience! Players from Taoyuan Township, please don't bite anyone!"

"Hey, you've been pricked in a sore spot, are you jumping up and down? The more you act like this, the more it proves that Brother Yufan is right!"

"I think Su Yufan is right. Game language should be civilized, otherwise it will easily mislead children. Don't you think your game should pay attention to this?"

"Hahaha, I'm afraid it's just jealousy. Look at how popular their game is, but Taoyuan Township can't even hire a spokesperson, right?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, the players in Taoyuan Township are just like your game, their quality is worrying."

The last message was quickly followed by a comment from a fan from Taoyuan Township:

"I understand the logic, but can you explain why, as a fan of Su Yufan, you only repost news about the Boss Simulator? Are you one of You Yi's online trolls? Picking nose.jpg"

The opponent quickly broke through the defense: "I'm going to beat you up, you big (beep), I'm going to beat you up with one punch..."

Taoyuanxiang fans were amused: "Broken defense? That's it? And you still have the nerve to say others have questionable qualities."

There were also some neutral passersby who left comments:

“Taoyuanxiang fans, please stop arguing with each other.

In fact, this matter probably has nothing to do with Su Yufan directly. As a traffic star, who is busy with announcements every day, how could he have the time to pay attention to things in the gaming circle?

The interview transcript must have been provided by Youyi's PR department. In other words, Youyi was leveraging Su Yufan's fame and influence to smuggle in their own agenda.

Taoyuanxiang fans replied:
"Well, now we can only wait and see if Taoyuan Township has any explanation on Monday."

"That's right, how can you tolerate this? Beat You Yi up real hard!"

……

However, just as Taoyuanxiang's fans were outraged, You Yi's offensive did not stop.

One hour after Su Yufan announced the endorsement news,
Major mainstream gaming media outlets, including Youyi, 19193, Shuangwan.com, and Jihe.com, have withdrawn all news and reviews about "The Life of Mouth Cannon."

Whether it is the EASTJOY exhibition report or the analysis of the game appreciation editors, no manuscript is left out.

This is because Youyi sent emails to all gaming media that have cooperative relationships with Youyi Workshop.

The email claimed that the game "Zizai Mouth Cannon Life" would soon be restricted from the Youyi platform due to its vulgar language. In other words, I won't stop you from listing it, but I won't give you traffic for display and promotion.

Youyi also took this opportunity to ask other media outlets on the platform to comply with the platform agreement and withdraw all articles. If any media outlet refuses to withdraw their articles, Youyi will terminate all cooperation.

Not only that, the email also requested that the media should not increase the popularity of this game when Mouth Cannon Life is launched.

Thanks to Youyi's operation, the entire mainstream media of the game was so clean, as if the game "Free and Easy Mouth Cannon Life" had never existed.

……

Saturday night, Youyi Company headquarters.

The floor where the "Boss Simulator" project team is located is brightly lit, and everyone is working overtime busily.

The development team is making changes to the public beta version.

First, Shi Yi decided to add a new multiplayer online social mode to "Boss Simulator". In this mode, the bosses played by players will play in the same block and carry out social and team tasks.

Secondly, because he is the spokesperson for Su Yufan, all art production and task design related to Su Yufan must be completed before the public beta.

Third, Shi Yi requested that planners must continue to add new mechanisms to the core gameplay of Boss Simulator, the more the better.

Shi Yi and Zou Zhongtian personally supervised the work, walking back and forth between the employees' workstations with their hands behind their backs.

Shi Yi said slowly:
"We have to work overtime until at least 3 a.m. tonight. Everyone, please don't go home and just sleep in the office."

Zou Zhongtian raised his eyebrows:

"Let me tell you something first. Our game will be launched next week, and the public beta version must be released within a week. The time is tight and the task is heavy.

I require all students to stay at their posts and not to ask for personal leave. Even if something big happens, you have to finish the version for me first.

You are not allowed to take sick leave, and you are not allowed to leave the front line even if you are slightly injured!
If anyone leaves before 3am, they don't have to come back on Monday and can just pack up and get out!

The employees had dark circles under their eyes and looked extremely haggard, but they dared not speak out.

Originally, the public beta version had been packaged, the bugs had been fixed and submitted for review, and everyone was planning to take a good break and catch their breath.

As a result, Shi Yi and Zou Zhongtian issued a large number of new development requirements.

Su Yufan's endorsement was just decided not long ago.
The reason for adding the multiplayer community mode is that Zou Zhongtian feels that the stand-alone version of Boss Simulator is not very competitive compared to Mouth Cannon Life.

Shi Yi's decision to expand the core gameplay was not based on any design considerations, but simply because Mouth Cannon Life added new mechanisms, and he felt that Youyi could not fall behind.

In the words of Manager Shi: "If others don't have it, I must have it; if others have it, I must be better!"

In fact, in the eyes of the project team members, these requirements are not so outrageous.
But the key question is -

What did you do early? !

In the early stages of the project development, the bosses said nice things and told us to design freely and then left it alone. However, we didn't get a single word done during the entire development cycle.

As a result, why do we have to wait until the launch is about to begin before all kinds of modification requests suddenly pour out like a flood, requiring us to change this and overturn that?
Everyone was really troubled.

The bosses make decisions just by thinking, and in the end it is the poor low-level workers who suffer.

However, everyone had no choice but to swallow their anger and continue typing on the keyboard with dark circles under their eyes.

The reason is simple. In this inward-looking gaming industry, this level of overtime is no longer uncommon before a game goes online.

At least Youyi is "humane" enough to let the workers go home at 3 a.m. so that they can take a shower and take a short nap.

Some companies have all their employees sleep on the floor all night before the version is launched.

So, they can only pick a less rotten one from a pile of rotten tomatoes.

There's no way around it. Life is not easy. I have elderly parents and young children to support, and I still owe decades of mortgage. I just have to live one day at a time.

……

On Sunday night, Lu Yu was bored in his study at home and began to check the recent progress of Taoyuan Township's various product lines.

Recently, he has been focusing on fitness and hot springs in the company, or teaching employees to enjoy life. At home, he has been focusing on appreciating the beauty Liu Mengyuan, who walks around in front of him in black stockings.
Come to think of it, I haven't paid attention to the progress of the company's business lines for a long time.

So, when he saw that "My Leisurely Island Owner Life" had nearly 200 million monthly active users, and that Lu Di Yu Mo's interview documentary had more than 500 million views, and that players were enthusiastically discussing the new developments in Mouth Cannon's life, he suddenly came to his senses.

That's not right. From what I've seen, all business lines are at risk of becoming hits and losing control of their business scale...

These are not the most important things. The most crucial thing is why the leisure point income curve has been declining sharply in recent days, and it has fallen a lot more than before!

Why are the employees so curled up again, and even curlier than before?
No, I have to intervene!
