After hearing this, the middle-aged man was quite shocked, and the young fat man was also shocked. It took them a long time to calm down.

Uncle Ge forced a smile and said, "Mr. Gu, you misunderstood. We are not forcibly acquiring this company. We just came to take a look at the situation and discuss the possibility of acquiring shares."

"No, no." Gu Yuqing shook her head vigorously. "I said, I set my eyes on this first, and I have it all to myself."

Uncle Ge gained some confidence and said with a smile, "You can't talk about business like that, right? I've seen their company's current business plan. Mr. Gu, you're so powerful, it's unlikely that you can take it all by yourself."

Chen Ya asked, "If you become a shareholder, will you interfere with my plans?"

The young, fat man interrupted, "It's too harsh to be bossy. We can give you some guidance on your game. I think you need that."

The middle-aged man, Uncle Ge, added, "Your krypton gold system definitely needs to be revised. Regarding the open world, we also need to understand whether to create an open world and how to do it before making any changes."

Chen Ya immediately said, "Sorry, I don't need it. Our principle for accepting investment is that we only accept money, and opinions and guidance can be left alone."

The young fat man raised his eyebrows: "You!?"

Uncle Ge spread his hands and said, "So there's nothing to discuss?"

Chen Ya shook his head to express his gratitude.

He felt that Gu Yuqing beside him seemed to relax a little.

She was sitting close to him, and although her body was soft, he could clearly feel that there was a tense string inside her.

And after he rejected her, her body visibly softened.

"Alright." Uncle Ge stood up and said to Chen Ya, "Then our trip would have been in vain."

Chen Ya stood up and shook hands with him: "It's quite pleasant chatting with you."

The fat young man next to him seemed to sense some hidden meaning, and his facial muscles moved slightly, but he couldn't show it.

Uncle Ge said, "Mr. Gu and I have some connections. For Mr. Gu's sake, there are some things I must remind you of."

Chen Ya pretended to be respectful and said, "You have my say, I am all ears."

"Your PV is well done, really well done. We're interested in it, but we're not the only ones interested in you."

Uncle Ge finished speaking, and then continued: "It's fine for you to reject us, but if the Hubei factory comes over, their attitude will not be as good as ours."

Chen Ya forced a smile: "Is that so?"

"Yeah." Uncle Ge nodded. "If we buy shares, maybe we can protect them a little bit, and the Hubei factory might be more restrained, but you won't accept it."

Chen Ya tilted his head, still smiling: "Isn't this just paying respects to the boss? Is it like the underworld, where you have to join a side?"

The fat young man next to him sneered, as if he thought his understanding was very naive.

Uncle Ge continued patiently, "The current situation is that the Zhuhai and Hubei provinces share the world. It is bound to develop into this situation. Even if the two provinces come to power, it will still be like this. This is reality."

Chen Ya said: "I know."

"That's all I have to say."

After that, the two of them left, passing by the office area, and strode away in full view of all the employees.

Since the talks broke down, Chen Ya had no mood to pretend to see the guests off, so he and Gu Yuqing stayed in the office.

The two of them looked at each other, neither of them saying anything.

Finally, Chen Ya spoke first: "Why is your hair still wet? It looks like you ran here halfway through a shampoo at the beauty salon."

Gu Yuqing said unhappily, "Because I was at the beauty salon just now, and I ran over here halfway through washing my hair."

“…”

Gu Yuqing grabbed his waist and said, "I was halfway through washing my hair when I received a report from an informant saying that you were planning to accept investment from the pearl factory. Huh? You actually did this without telling me? How can this be tolerated?"

Gu Yuqing smiled on the surface, but the strength in her hands did not decrease as she ravaged his waist. Although she had pinched him before, she had never used such force. It seemed that she was really angry this time.

Chen Ya smiled and said, "You're too sensitive. They were the ones who contacted me first. If they had such intentions, I would definitely want to know more about it first."

Gu Yuqing said, "What's there to know? I invested, isn't that enough?"

"It's not quite enough," Chen Ya said. "To be honest, the budget is a bit over budget, and we're a bit stretched right now."

In order to find Gu Yuqing, I added a few more spy skills to the system and spent some extra money.

If it weren’t for the current income from “A Sheep’s Nest” and “The Big Watermelon”, the company might not be able to pay salaries in two months.

Gu Yuqing frowned and said, "What should we do? We've already offended the Pearl Factory, and what about the E Factory..."

"We have to launch it sooner," Chen Ya said. "The development cycle, which was previously estimated to be seven months, must be shortened to six months."

"Is it too late?"

"In fact, our previous development plan also included version updates for two months after release. By cutting this part, we can shorten the time."

Gu Yuqing was speechless: "Then why not cut it off?"

"When the game is released, the word of mouth might be a little bad."

"It's better than dying." Gu Yuqing said, "Go ahead and chop it up."

"Well, that's all we can do," Chen Ya said. "Besides, if our competitors do something weird again, our publicity and promotion budget won't be enough for PR."

Gu Yuqing pressed her forehead and said, "For my sake, they probably won't do anything so ugly."

"Then it all depends on you, Mr. Gu." Chen Ya said with a smile.

Gu Yuqing glared at him and said, "I just regret that my legs are a little thin, not enough for you to hug. Otherwise, why would you think of looking for the pearl factory?"
