Chapter 99 We Are All Mr. Gu's People! (Sixth Update, 16,000 Words, Please Vote!)

Zhou Yang nodded: "So, this is what I couldn't figure out before!

"This problem has troubled me for a long time, and it's almost driving me crazy!

"You say I'm a good game designer, and the gameplay I designed with all my heart is not as effective as an accidental BUG. This easily makes me question the value of my existence...

"But today, I finally understand!

"In the final analysis, Mr. Gu has no say! He is just a senior worker, and above him, there is a stupid investor who likes to point fingers!"

Zhao Haiquan was startled and lowered his voice: "Shh! This kind of thing is not good to talk about! How do you know that the investor is a fool?"

Zhou Yang said: "This is why I didn't use the chat software to tell you about this. This kind of thing really can't be discussed in a big way.

"Didn't Mr. Gu just give a hint?

"But if we combine the known conditions, this conclusion is not difficult to infer, right?

"You see, Mr. Gu said that this investor has a unique concept for his own ideas and does not accept other people's suggestions at all. Moreover, our company's games all come from the ideas of this investor.

"Look, isn't this investor the kind of game company leader we hate the most? Not only does he command the experts, but he also likes to teach players how to play games!

"What are those ideas? What kind of feeling does the design draft give people after it is written? Isn't that just pure disgust for players? It's just deliberately going against the players, and not designing how the players enjoy it!

"Are there few such people? There are not a few in the game industry! And they are all still alive and well, which is enough to prove that games do not lead to violent behavior, otherwise how can they live so long?"

Zhao Haiquan seemed to have realized something: "I understand what you mean, I seem to have connected everything!

"Why does Mr. Gu want to put bugs in the game?

"Because he signed a contract with this investor at the beginning, the company is actually controlled by this investor. But this investor doesn't understand games, likes to give blind orders, and the games he designed are like a mess.

"Mr. Gu wanted to change it, but the investor didn't accept his suggestions at all, so Mr. Gu had no choice but to put bugs in the game!"

Zhou Yang nodded: "Yes, that's it!"

Zhao Haiquan still had questions: "But our game makes money! Can the investor still be at odds with money? This investor should value Mr. Gu more and give him more say, right?"

Zhou Yang shook his head: "What you said is the idea of ​​a normal person, not the idea of ​​a stupid leader!

"Maybe this investor will not only not be happy, but will also vent his anger on Mr. Gu!

"Yes, no one will be at odds with money, but what does the success of the game show? This shows that the investor's design idea is wrong, it's just a bunch of crap. The investor must have seen what the players criticized at the beginning, and the game became popular not because of the original design, but because of bugs.

"Do you think this investor, with his paranoid personality, can be happy? Can he admit his mistakes?

"This investor will only think that there is no problem with the original design, and the game will only be more popular without bugs. So after a series of bugs, this investor will not only not feel fortunate, but will be very angry, thinking that it is Mr. Gu who is incompetent and did not detect these bugs!

"Don't doubt it, this is the way stupid people think.

"We have been working in the workplace for so many years, you say, is this the case?"

Zhao Haiquan nodded sincerely: "Indeed!"

After some analysis, the situation became clearer and clearer.

Even the bugs in the game have a more reasonable explanation.

Zhou Yang continued: "So, now it looks like a questioning session, but in fact, it is a team-standing session!

"We only have two choices.

"Either stand with Mr. Gu or stand with the investor! ”

Zhao Haiquan nodded again: "Indeed! ! "

Why did the investor come? To praise everyone? That's definitely impossible.

Otherwise, there is no need for a one-on-one conversation, and there is no need for Mr. Gu to give everyone a shot in advance, so that everyone can spend a day thinking about what to say.

The investor is here to investigate the BUG problem!

Obviously, this investor does not think that there is anything wrong with his design at all, but thinks that these BUGs outside of the design hold him back.

So, he wants to find evidence of Mr. Gu's trouble through a one-on-one conversation.

Did Mr. Gu make trouble? Yes.

From an objective point of view, these BUGs must have been inserted by him; but from a subjective point of view, these BUGs are the cornerstone of the fun of the game and are also the basis for everyone's bonus. Source!

If a game runs entirely on BUGs, then this is not a BUG, ​​but a core mechanism.

If a company runs entirely on an insider, then this is not an insider, but a loyal minister, a pillar of support for the country!

If Zhou Yang spoke out his guess, then even without any evidence, the investor would certainly increase his suspicion of Mr. Gu.

At that time, maybe Mr. Gu would not be allowed to touch the code? Or even worse, just change the CEO?

All of this is possible!

So, this is a question of standing in line, and you can only stand with one person. And once you stand, it means a complete break with the other side.

So the question is, who will everyone choose to stand with?

Isn't this nonsense, who else can you stand with?

Who makes games fun?

Who keeps the game Against Heaven evolving?

Who gave generous bonuses to all employees?

Whose food do we eat and whose clothes do we wear?

Of course, eating from Mr. Gu’s food and wearing Mr. Gu’s clothes! Without Mr. Gu, the game would not be able to make money, and we would still be begging for food with a basic salary of several thousand yuan per month!

On one side, you will gain both fame and fortune, and on the other side, you will lose both fame and fortune. Even if you ask a kindergarten child to choose, he can’t make the wrong choice!

There is no stronger relationship in the world than interests, so Mr. Gu’s 188,000 bonus is the strongest relationship with employees.

The two looked at each other and confirmed one thing.

Even if the sky falls, it is still a BUG and has absolutely nothing to do with Mr. Gu!

"Even..."

Zhou Yang had a new idea: "In the future, we can also secretly add bugs to the game!

“Isn’t it just a matter of moving a few lines of code?

"Brother Haiquan, you are the background program. Let's talk to Brother Dahui again. Isn't it simple for you two programmers to join forces and fix a bug?

"Of course, how to plug this specifically needs to be considered in the long term. It will definitely not work if it is too obvious and can be seen at a glance.

“But no matter what, Mr. Gu is simply carrying the burden alone, protecting us from the wind and rain. Not only does he have to deal with stupid investors and carry alone, but he also generously gives us such a cent...

"Then we have to do something! We can't get such a high bonus in vain!"

Zhao Haiquan nodded seriously: "Indeed!!!"

Soon, the two completely reached an agreement.

But just two people are not enough. What if other people also suspect the bug, but don't think about it further and accidentally sell Mr. Gu?

So, keep ventilating!

Of course, in the process of ventilation, you must also pay attention to methods and methods. You must first test the other party's attitude and then give some guidance. You must not expose the core secrets all at once.

Returning to the company in the afternoon, Zhou Yang and Zhao Haiquan went their separate ways and invited company employees to a quiet place on the first floor to talk.

Overall, it went very well!

Obviously, this is directly related to Gu Fan's previous bonus distribution model.

To put it bluntly, this model has two points: first, excess! Second, inclusive!

The so-called excess means that everyone received a bonus that far exceeded their contribution.

The so-called universal benefit means that everyone from the management to the grassroots is treated equally, and the grassroots get a lot.

For example, the three testers, although they only completed their assigned work, received the first bonus of 47,000 yuan.

And that was only the first reissued bonus. After that, "Fire Thief" was developed for two months, and additional bonuses were given out at the end of each month. Although the game's sales dropped rapidly later, the bonus also shrank, but the additional bonus Together, even ordinary testers can get a bonus of 120,000 to 30,000 yuan!

If it is only sent to the top management, it is inevitable that there will be some complaints from the grassroots. Then it will not be so easy for Zhou Yang and Zhao Haiquan to get everyone on the same boat.

But now, this bonus distribution is just right.

Everyone felt that they had taken too much, and everyone knew clearly that they would follow Mr. Gu to eat hot and spicy food, and betray Mr. Gu and eat braised vegetables!

Then it is not difficult to guess what choice they will make.

In this way, after a busy afternoon, everyone in the company was highly unified in thinking.

…

At 6 o'clock in the evening, everyone had had dinner in advance and was waiting for the investor's arrival.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the investor of our company, you can call her Mr. Li." Gu Fan introduced.

Everyone shouted in unison: "Hello, Mr. Li!"

Zhou Yang looked Lilith up and down, his expression becoming serious.

Such a young investor... his reincarnation skills are very high!

Moreover, how do you make it look like a non-mainstream? No, that's not right. Non-mainstream is not this style. Strictly speaking, it should be a bad girl, right?

Anyway, it perfectly fits the stereotype that Zhou Yang guessed before.

He must be a layman who doesn’t understand the game! He must be a brat with a bad temper and can't listen to suggestions!

It is really not easy for Mr. Gu to tolerate such an investor for so long and keep wiping her design plan.

But don’t worry, Mr. Gu, from today on you will not be fighting alone. All the employees of Nitiantian Games will stand behind you and fight to the end against this evil investor who wants to destroy the gaming industry!

Lilith looked around at the crowd, inexplicably feeling that something was wrong.

Why do you seem to be being rejected by the company's atmosphere?

But she doesn't care, after all, the company is hers, and whoever she wants to get out has to get out. The identity of the superior is here, so what is there to worry about?

"I want to talk to you alone, starting with you."

Lilith pointed to a tester in the corner and called him downstairs for questioning alone.

After about ten minutes, another person came down.

But no matter who comes up or who comes down, they will exchange glances with firmness in their eyes.

Lilith kept asking questions from six o'clock until after eight o'clock, and she had begun to deeply doubt life.

It's strange, there really aren't any clues?

Is that really a BUG? None of the company’s employees found any problems?

The game is not finished yet, don't say it's not fun just after reading half of it... Can't you say it after reading it? I'm already working hard on writing, the prototype of this game is Fatal Company + Palu + Fog Lock Kingdom
