"Humph……"

Xia Yuan glared at Mei Fang angrily, then snatched Mei Fang's phone and started playing with Mei Fang's beta version account.

"Fang, why don't you just ask the operations department to get the resource data for you? Why are you spending Saint Quartz to draw it yourself?"

"I definitely have to draw it myself. I have to do live marketing tonight, so I'd better practice my luck first."

"How's your luck with the card draw?"

"Basically, about 80 to 90 percent of the goods are sold..."

"Isn't that close to a big guarantee? I remember you said before that our FGO has a mechanism that guarantees a five-star product after 100 draws..."

"That can't be helped. I may have spent my entire life's good fortune on meeting you and Youxi. I'm not very lucky in things like lotteries."

"Your winning the football lottery wasn't luck, it was just your bad mouth."

Xia Yuan cursed Mei Fang, but he was very happy in his heart. He leaned over and kissed Mei Fang. "Speaking of which, Fang, why don't you tell the players directly about the mechanism of guaranteed five-star cards after 100 draws? That way they will feel more at ease, right? If you don't have this mechanism, can't we just rely on luck when drawing cards?"

"Drawing cards is a mysterious thing. If we really use pure mathematical probability, someone could draw a thousand or ten thousand times but still not get a five-star card."

"Isn't there anything I can do if I'm really that unlucky..."

"How can there be no solution? Players come here to spend money and have fun, not to be clowns. These players who easily make thousands of draws can be considered our big spenders. They must like our game enough to spend money."

"If they can't be satisfied after drawing so many cards, then it must be our planner's problem. We didn't serve them well. Of course, I'm talking about ordinary krypton gold card drawing mobile games. When we make independent stand-alone games, the design concept is still different."

"So do we need to add this guarantee mechanism... and we can't let them know that the hidden guarantee has been triggered. Is it to save their face? Don't let them know that they are super unlucky?"

"You could say that... But our domestic players are very smart. The core players will be able to detect this mechanism very quickly."

"Then aren't we wasting our efforts?"

"It's not a wasted effort. As long as the government doesn't recognize it, there can be no such mechanism."

Xia Yuan suddenly realized: "Oh! So that's how it is. I completely understand. As long as we don't tell the players, it will be convenient for us to make secret changes, right——"

While Xia Yuan was talking, Lin Youxi turned around and stretched out her hand as if looking for something. Mei Fang quickly reached out and held Lin Youxi, and Lin Youxi slept more soundly. At the same time, he also covered Xia Yuan's mouth with his other hand. Only after Lin Youxi calmed down did Mei Fang slowly let go of Xia Yuan.

"It's true that we want to make some changes secretly, but for ordinary games, we are not that greedy and won't go to that extent. Because it is easy to calculate the number of the big guarantee by pure 100 draws, so we want to control the big guarantee triggering mechanism through random numbers, otherwise there will be a lack of anticipation."

If the hidden guarantee is randomly controlled within a certain range, then the player will not be able to judge whether he got the five-star because of the guarantee or because of a lucky draw. The hidden guarantee mechanism will also become more difficult to observe, and it can also reduce the player's sense of loss for being a loser.

"Random number... it doesn't have to be 101 draws, can it be draws?"

"It can't be 101 draws, it can only be 99 draws."

Mei Fang explained to Xia Yuan: "Don't let the player's card draw results fall below his expectations and the information he has collected, otherwise he will think that we have made secret changes today and tomorrow, and will go to the stress bar every day to hang us."

"That's indeed troublesome..."

Xia Yuan listened and sighed, "Oh, so it seems like the players are really hard to please."

"You are here to make money from them, how can you not serve them well?"

Mei Fang stroked Xia Yuan's head and said, "It's not shameful for us to make money, but we can't eat it in an ugly way. If we eat in an ugly way, it will be difficult for us to get along in the future."

"That's right. After all, there are many students playing FGO, so we should be more conscientious..."

"Yuanyuan really has a conscience! Let me feel your conscience again!"

"I just said that you can't rub it casually at ordinary times!"

"I'm just trying to get some luck. I'm going to go live and draw cards later. Good luck, good luck. You don't want me to get ten consecutive blue skies and white clouds and be mocked by those gamers, do you?"

"Well, since it's for the company..."

On the day of FGO's public beta, Mei Fang demonstrated the explosion rate during the live card drawing event that night. He got three yellows in the first ten draws, creating three five-star cards, Gilgamesh, Alpaca, and the Village Girl. The screen was flooded with comments like "And you still say you're not a lucky guy", and countless players went crazy.

However, Mei Fang then readily gave everyone 30 stone redemption codes + 1 extra four-star of their choice as compensation, and netizens immediately treated it as if nothing had happened.

FGO's server remained stable after a brief pause within 10 minutes of its launch. Thanks to the concerted efforts of many parties, it achieved an incredible first-day turnover of 1 million, and directly jumped to the No. spot on the national IOS best-selling list.

Chapter 420: Return of an Old Friend

With the vigorous publicity and promotion of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment, the hot topic of "Fate: Grand Order" swept the whole of June, which also made Mei Fang, the founder of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment, once again a hot topic as the distributor of the work.

Although there are few offline discussions about Mei Fang in real life, there are also endless discussions about Mei Fang online, especially on campus forums:

[Today I found a wild webmaster in the cafeteria in the North District! My classmate was very brave and went up to ask for his autograph, but was decisively rejected by the webmaster.]

[Damn, the webmaster is acting like a big shot, isn't he? I thought he looked quite friendly, but I didn't expect him to be this kind of person! ]

[That’s not the case… He said he was just a normal student at school, and we shouldn’t treat him like a celebrity.]

[That’s true. If every one of us asked for his autograph and took a photo with him when we saw him, he would probably be annoyed to death by us every day.]

[I give 648 yuan to the webmaster every week. Now I am also a spiritual shareholder of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment]

[You are so rich, why don’t you give me some! ]

[The upstairs upstairs, do you need a girlfriend? Dating is not much cheaper than playing games. 】

[Hahahaha it’s so funny, women will only affect the speed of our shipment]

【So Pengda boys are very cool】

[You said the webmaster can earn tens of millions a day from FGO, why is he still studying this? ]

[Didn’t I say before that it’s all about experiencing life and enjoying youth! What else can I do? ]

[It's rare that I'm in the same class as the webmaster, so I have to find a way to get an internship opportunity in the webmaster's company! ]

[The above, why are you just thinking here? Others' internship recruitment is already in the third round. Don't you know that? 】

【what? 】

Mei Fang, who entered the university as the president of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment, naturally could not have a university life full of singing and laughing with his classmates. In addition to daily study and experiencing daily university life, Mei Fang also carried out relatively in-depth cooperation and exchanges with Pengda itself.

At the graduation ceremony of the senior class, Mei Fang attended and spoke as a special guest among the representatives of the students who stayed on campus. In addition to thanking the seniors for their contributions to the development of Pengda and congratulating everyone on their success at Pengda, he also extended several olive branches to everyone:

First, Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment provides a green channel for seniors from Pengda University to avoid screening their resumes, providing an extra opportunity for those who failed the postgraduate entrance examination and still have not determined their future careers;

The second is additional incubation support. Pengda itself actually has a lot of bonuses and entrepreneurial incubation support, but that is more concentrated in the School of Computer Science rather than the brand new School of Game Design.

Mei Fang hopes to attract more outstanding talents in the independent game design industry from this game design academy and create a good ecological reputation and content inventory for TABTAB, so he has formulated a new plan.

At the previous Fangciyuan product launch conference, Mei Fang and Lin Youxi jointly announced the holding of the gamejam competition, and some of the winning works came from students of Pengcheng University.

Mei Fang will give priority to providing a small angel investment for the works of these seniors to help them realize and improve the creativity of gamejam, and provide channel promotion and priority contract support. This is also similar to a scholarship mechanism, dedicated to Mei Fang's expansion of his own network in Pengda and absorbing future talents in the gaming field from the ivory tower.

Jiang Peihuan, a red-haired senior who had just enrolled at Mei Fang, also resigned from the position of student union president at the end of this month and had a long exchange with Mei Fang at the venue.

From the conversation with Senior Jiang, Mei Fang learned that Jiang has not graduated yet, but is continuing her studies in game design at Pengda University.

This master's degree program was just opened this year. As the first senior to try it, Jiang Peihuan plans to continue to explore this field in depth. Mei Fang certainly does not want to miss this senior who has a very high reputation in the school. At the end of the conversation, she invited her to join Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment at any time after graduation, but was politely rejected by Jiang Peihuan.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I am learning these concepts purely out of interest. As for business... I still hope to make a decision after I graduate and take over some things at home. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, rather than being competitors."

Jiang Peihuan's few simple words showed her extraordinary family background, which also made Mei Fang realize that he was overconfident.

Obviously, although Mei Fang is a popular figure now, it does not mean that Jiang Peihuan will admire him so much.

A young man who started from scratch and is worth over 100 million is certainly rare in this era, but without the wealth and connections accumulated by his family lineage, he may just be seen as a nouveau riche who is eager for quick success in the eyes of the wealthy families in Pengcheng.

A university is a microcosm of society, and there are many unfathomable elites in Pengcheng University. In addition to his own accumulation, Mei Fang should also pay attention to discovery and observation during his study and life in the university.

After all, most of Mei Fang's achievements are actually brought about by experience. There is still a big gap compared with those developers with family lineage and natural genius. The former is enough to become a part of his network, while the latter can become the core technology and professional talents of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment like Youxi and Guo Yun.

June is the graduation season. While Mei Fang was busy celebrating the graduation of her seniors, Xia Yuan was also celebrating the arrival of a new stage in life for one of her good friends.

Xia Yuan got up early that day. When Mei Fang got up and went to the living room, she saw Xia Yuan lying on the sofa, spreading her feet, playing with cats and talking on the phone.

Mei Fang stroked Xiao Bai, who had just been ignored. Lin Youxi, who was wearing an apron, came over with cat food and was about to add cat food to the cats' feeders. Mei Fang took it over and said, "Let me help you."

"Don't sprinkle too much on you, it will go bad easily."

"I know, I know... By the way, who is Yuanyuan chatting with? Why is she so happy?"

"Who else could it be? Today is the day when the college entrance examination results are announced."

"Oh, this is Peng Xue's achievement..."

Mei Fang scratched his head. "I feel like she's even more excited than when I got my college entrance exam results."

"Yuanyuan is just like that... Hey, I told you that you spilled too much cat food."

Lin Youxi knocked Mei Fang on the head to teach him a lesson, then snatched the cat food and Xiaobai from Mei Fang's hands, "You always give so much at once, look how fat Daju has become, like a ball."

"It's already a big orange, it will get fat even if I don't feed it like this..."

"At least it can't be us who fed him. You are the one who is most responsible for Daju being so fat."

Mei Fang felt a little aggrieved after being scolded by Lin Youxi. The big orange cat next to him saw Mei Fang being scolded and jumped around happily and meowed.

The six kittens left by Sanhua Niangniang are now more than three months old. They have grown from kittens into lively little kittens, and they are usually very naughty.

Although it is a bit difficult to take care of six cats, Xia Yuan believes that the six cats are brothers and sisters and should live together, so she rejects the idea of ​​others giving away the cats.

Of course, after being together for so long, the three of them have begun to get used to being with the cat every day. It can be said that they have become as close as a family.

However, Mei Fang has been very busy recently and has not had much chance to stay at home and pet her cat.

"By the way, Ah Fang, let me tell you something."

"How...you said?"

"I'm actually quite interested in the AI ​​creation function you mentioned to me last time using data models. I think it's not just AI painting that you mentioned, but also AI writing and even AI engines. I think these are all areas that can be explored."

"In the future, I want to lead a group of people to explore this market and try to overcome the current technical barriers, but I have to understand more about this first, so I may have to spend a lot of time studying it in depth recently."

Mei Fang's heart trembled after hearing this, "You... don't want to go abroad for study and exchange, do you?"

Going abroad for exchanges is often an inevitable separation for couples in love, but Mei Fang has been with Xia Yuanlin Youxi for too long. If she suddenly says she wants to leave, Mei Fang may really be reluctant to let her go, and of course she will be very worried.

"What's that expression on your face..." Lin Youxi smiled and pinched Mei Fang's cheek, "Of course not. If I go abroad, I won't be back for a year or two. By then, will you have given birth to a bunch of kids behind my back with Yuanyuan?"

"We are not pigs, how can we give birth to a litter?"

Lin Youxi patted Mei Fang on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. The Internet is so developed now. I can also study on my own here at Pengda. It's just that I won't have so much free time on weekdays. I will be busy and won't have time to cook slowly."

"That doesn't matter... I will definitely support the career you want to pursue. I'll cook for you when the time comes."

"Okay." Lin Youxi nodded.

Is it too early or too late to start working on AI now? Mei Fang is a little unsure. After all, cutting-edge topics like AI are beyond the understanding of a programmer like him who only knows how to code games.
