However, in the current environment, simply sticking to user service and using advertising to acquire new users is becoming increasingly unprofitable.

Han Xin took the initiative to suggest that Bai Weiran could add to or explore more paid features based on the current payment logic.

In short, you need to spend a lot of money.

Bai Weiran found this request quite troublesome.

The high spending requirement itself filters players, making it difficult for non-paying players to experience the true core gameplay loop.

When Bai Weiran first entered the industry, he was mentored by a senior data planner. The data planner, facing the data system he designed, frankly gave Bai Weiran a sum of money.

"Without spending this much money, you can't truly play this game."

"So I never chat with players who spend less than this amount, because their opinions are not relevant to me, and they haven't even experienced the true strength of the hero."

Bai Weiran did not like this approach.

However, Han Xin wanted him to engage in high-spending, pay-to-win activities for the sake of the company's future and the project.

Modern games are getting faster and faster, resulting in short lifespans.

Nan'e acquired a major international IP and spent two years developing a game. In its first month after launch, the game generated over 100 million RMB in revenue. However, in the second month, the revenue plummeted by half. In the third month, the company began to gradually remove the R&D staff from the team and reassign them to other projects, decisively abandoning the product.

Being a middle manager caught in the middle is a difficult situation.

Those below must be responsible to their subordinates, and those above must be responsible to their boss.

Bai Weiran closed his eyes, frowning in deep thought.

He needs to think about how to communicate this matter with Han Xin.

"Brother Weiran? I've fixed that bug from before, take a look again."

He hummed in response, without opening his eyes.

Little angel Ah Chao stood beside him, watching with eyes full of worry.

Ah, my brother Weiran, the wrinkles on his brows are so tight, I really want to take an iron and smooth them out for him, to share his burden and relieve his worries.

Bai Weiran opened his eyes after his thoughts calmed down and found that A-Chao was still standing next to him, looking at him with starry eyes full of concern.

He suddenly realized that Ah Chao was waiting for his feedback.

"Okay, I'll check that bug now."

Ah Chao quickly waved his hand at him.

"Oh, no, I'm not in a hurry, Brother Weiran."

Brother Weiran must be troubled by something bigger, how could he dare to disturb him?

Ah Chao wanted to lighten Bai Weiran's mood, so he wanted to tell Bai Weiran about the bizarre video he had just heard his friend share on Bilibili. However, Bai Weiran was annoyed by Han Xin's request, and when she heard that it was just casual chatting unrelated to work, she dismissed Ah Chao perfunctorily.

I was busy until 10 p.m.

He finally had some free time after most of the project team members had left.

I casually clicked on the trending list on Bilibili.

The sight of several trending topics made him rub his eyes.

[Looking for the mysterious Mr. William!]

[On why Mr. William is a god!!]

[A brief discussion of why Mr. William conquered the parody/meme section in a single day.]

Mr. William's divine song shattered my glass! ノ)?Д?(

【I, Mr. William, am here to pay!】

Mr. William?

An uneasy premonition suddenly enveloped Bai Weiran's mind, and his heart pounded.

No, I can't think about it. Murphy's Law—the more you think about it, the more likely it is to happen.

With trembling fingers and a somewhat bewildered look in his eyes from working overtime for so long, Bai Weiran clicked on the most discussed video, watching the uploader use a series of physics analyses to discuss who Mr. William was.

Wearing a mask that's half-crying and half-smiling, she possesses superpowers and works as the manager of teenage idols.

It feels very sophisticated, yet also very down-to-earth.

She can wear a mask and, with a blank expression, deliver lines from a yandere idol using magical girl gestures.

Bai Weiran: ………………

If he had accepted Ah Chao's kindness back then, things wouldn't have gotten so serious.

All the videos of the fires were released between the afternoon and evening.

Because Nana didn't end her search by quitting a single live stream, she visited all the content creators on Bai Weiran's favorites list and barged into the live streams of everyone who was streaming, seriously questioning them about finding the person. This caused chaos in the live streams, while everyone became curious about this girl who sang bizarre songs.

Someone asked her where she lived and why she wasn't in school.

Nana answered honestly, as was her duty.

Hello, I am thirteen years old and live in another world. Because I am already a ghost, I don't have to go to school.

Everyone thought she was just joking, but Bilibili banned her as the "Ghostly Beauty," causing quite a stir. A group of enthusiastic viewers came uninvited, following her to whichever livestream she was in, wanting to hear her sing her hit songs live.

The livestreamers discovered that her presence generated buzz, and their initial refusal turned into a rush to invite her.

It's still being broadcast live right now.

Bai Weiran clicked into the most popular game live stream and saw that his account was active in it.

Nana's desperate screams came through the headphones.

"Mr. William! Where are you?!"

Then a string of self-proclaimed Nana fans started repeating the same thing.

[Mr. William! Where are you?!]

[Mr. William! Where are you?!]

Dozens of messages are displayed per second.

Bai Weiran ripped off his headphones and roughly threw them to the ground. Unexpectedly, the headphones shattered on the spot, their fragile state causing them to fail instantly. However, in his despair, Bai Weiran didn't care about that, nor did he have time to worry about the money.

He picked up his phone and rushed over to press the elevator button. The elevator was moving slowly, and he couldn't wait any longer, so he simply took the stairs. As he walked, he picked up his phone and tried to make Nana leave the live stream, but it didn't work. He would leave, and Nana would come back in. He tried to log out on his phone, but the computer login wouldn't work either.

Oh my God!

I must be getting my comeuppance for doing so many evil things, right?

On the express train, Bai Weiran leaned back in his seat, watching the live stream of people dancing wildly, speechless and exasperated.

**

Today's update features the yanderes! ヽ('▽`;)/?

Yes, our Bai Shaoshe is dead, he really is! I laughed so loudly!

Chapter 41 The Joker Was Me!

The ten minutes on the express train felt longer than ever before to Bai Weiran.

He went through a flustered, anxious, and impatient state, then calmly considered countless solutions before finally putting down his phone and remaining motionless.

Bai Weiran no longer attempts to leave the Bilibili livestreaming platform, nor does he delete his account.

First of all, there are quite a few things to log in to on a personal computer.

Maintain your personal Penguin account login.

And then there's TikTok, with a user base of 800 million and a daily active user count of 700 million.

Although he only glanced briefly at what had happened that afternoon, he understood.

The ghostly beauty is not just a persona; she also has a bug-like existence. She can barge into a live stream, connect with other people at will, and you can't get rid of her even if you want to.

From the very beginning, Nana was the bug in that mission world.

Past experience told him that rushing to fix a bug without understanding its cause would usually lead to bigger problems.

If I don't cancel my Bilibili account, at least Nana won't run off somewhere else for the next ten minutes.

But now that she's cancelled her account, it's hard to predict where she'll go.

Does he intend to go through them one by one and cancel all of them?

What if she had Sadako's abilities from the Seven Ghost Stories and could travel into the television?

Imagine a well-groomed, articulate television anchor reporting important policies and social news when suddenly someone shouts at him from the side.

"Mr. William! Where are you?!"

If it's broadcast nationwide, then he's truly a swindler!

Compared to CCTV, Bilibili is nothing.

Since things have come to this, it's better to let things play out for a while and remain calm to see what happens.

He needs to figure out what happened at home first.

Bai Weiran opened the door to his home. It was unusually quiet inside. The dimly lit room was lit only by the computer screen, which was still playing the live stream. Bai Weiran immediately felt something was wrong. Could it be that Nana was there? But he couldn't see or hear her. This was troublesome.

He took off his shoes, turned on the light, and took a step forward.

The chair in front of the computer is facing a different direction than this morning.

He glanced down at the live stream on his phone and saw that chaos had broken out inside.

[Nana's die-hard fan: Huh? Where's my Nana? Why isn't she saying anything? I saw her still in the live stream!]

[Nanny, you idiot: Nana-chan, Nana-chan, don't go!—]

[Nana's husband: Don't make a sound, Nana is sleeping in my arms!]

[Coco is so handsome: I feel like Mr. William is crawling all over me when I can't hear Nana's singing, it's so uncomfortable, Nana!]

[Golden Gale: Nana-chan, Nana-chan, Nana-chan, Nana-chan, without you, I must seal my heart and lock away my love!]

[Counselor Rokuo: I will stop masturbating until Nana comes back!! (`皿')]
