Chapter 24: It is difficult to respond, and I am forced to broadcast live
The lab was quiet for a moment, and Assistant Fang still had a look of "innocent" curiosity on his face.
Director Qin raised his voice: "Okay? Have you never listened to a single class seriously in school? Even high school students can't ask you such a question!"
Fang Zhu was stunned for a moment. She really had not studied well, but she definitely couldn't say that under the current circumstances, lest she get scolded again.
"Have you ever thought about this," the director swung the report in his hand loudly, "why those predecessors who are much more experienced than you couldn't complete the experiment in the past ten or twenty years, but we completed it easily, and even achieved results that are much better than expected? Don't be silly!"
"Isn't it because of you, Director?" Assistant Fang's expression was very sincere. "Director, you are a rare genius in a century. How can those people compare to you? It must be you who led us to solve this big problem. Patients all over the world will thank you!"
After all, the boy was still young, and he was not easily bullied. After hearing these kind words, his anger was visibly reduced.
Ye Xuan nodded as well. The target of this mission didn't seem to be a particularly troublesome one. He could just coax him with a few words. He had become quite good at coaxing children recently.
Alas, he was forced to make a living. He, a young man who had just graduated from college, was actually doing some work of taking care of "children".
But this one shouldn’t be as tearful as the previous two, right?
He didn't know how long this part of the story would last. Couldn't the system wait until he was about to appear, and then give a brief text summary of the previous events? That way he would feel that his existence was unnecessary.
[After a while, no one noticed anything unusual, so they gradually stopped paying attention to it.]
No, can you who do scientific research be so careless?
Ye Xuan felt that it was absolutely not unfair for such a private research institute to fail to attract sponsorship.
In the blink of an eye, time jumped to half a month after the drug trial began.
As the experiment progressed, the situation was surprisingly smooth. All volunteers who received this new drug were recovering rapidly and it was estimated that they would be fully recovered in no time.
"Director!" Assistant Fang excitedly pulled Director Qin's sleeve, "This disease was incurable before!"
The boy still frowned: "I think this is very wrong, the experiment should be terminated immediately. Xiao Fang, starting from today, stop giving the medicine to all volunteers."
Fang Zhu rarely showed his disagreement with this genius: "Director, I remember what you said to me before. But what if this is a miracle? We might be able to win an award for this drug!"
The award she was talking about was, of course, the famous World Medical Award. That was also one of Qin's dreams, but he didn't think success would come so easily.
He didn't care that the assistant's words had changed long ago. Originally, she would have kept praising the director for all the credit, not to mention adding herself to the list of award winners.
Ye Xing noticed that he was a bystander, an outsider who could only see these things from an objective perspective. He understood that some things were gradually changing, while some things were just beginning.
…
"Sister Lin," Ye Xuan was suddenly "pulled" out of the game. Thinking about the recent unrest in the company, he quickly got out of the game cabin, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Xiao Xuan," she hesitated, as if she didn't know how to start. After a moment's consideration, she said, "The repair of the forum was not going smoothly. We held a meeting to discuss a solution."
He asked in confusion: "So what does this have to do with me? Sister, if you have something to say, just say it directly. If it is within my ability, I will definitely do my best."
After hearing what he said, Sister Lin's expression became much more relaxed from being uneasy.
She is indeed Ye Xuan's senior and can be called a leader. But judging from the company's current situation, Ye Xuan is their focus and the trump card of "Dream Travel" in the market competition.
Therefore, she was even more nervous when facing him now.
"Xiao Xuan, such an incident occurred in the forum the day before the competition began, and it is natural for players to complain. Our top priority is to calm the players' emotions and ensure that our game will not suffer any more negative impacts." Both public opinion and user volume must be maintained above a good standard line.
Ye Xuan roughly understood what the other party said, but the hidden meaning had not been fully revealed, so he asked directly.
Sister Lin handed him a piece of paper that had been printed not long ago. The two big words "Live Broadcast" at the top could be seen without taking it.
However, he still read the entire content on the paper carefully, which roughly stated some precautions for the live broadcast and the core ideas that the live broadcast wanted to express.
Ye Xuan himself didn’t watch many live broadcasts online, but he did watch some with his classmates in the dormitory. From his impression, there were many types of live broadcasts, and his kind was considered…
Game promotion? No, being targeted by a competitor to the point of forum crashing is not something worth publicizing.
Official statement? Not really. He can't really explain the game, so it's not realistic for him to represent Dream.
Ye Xuan registered an anchor account according to the navigation of the live broadcast website. Nowadays, live broadcast equipment is becoming more and more convenient for people to use, and registration is also very simple. Once the identity verification is passed, the account can start broadcasting normally.
However, live streaming in a holographic game still requires specific equipment. The company's plan was decided suddenly this time, and there were no tools prepared in advance, so live streaming in "Dream Travel" could not be realized.
What a hassle. He turned on the light Sister Lin gave him. It was a little dazzling, but after adjusting the brightness, he got used to it. The camera and microphone were turned on, and the screen in the live broadcast room changed from "Preparing" to "Start Live Broadcast".
The official social media accounts of "Dream Travel" had already released notifications and links for the live broadcast. As soon as the broadcast started, many players and bystanders flocked into the room, and the popularity was rising at a speed that Ye Xuan could hardly imagine.
It’s strange, when did our game have so many players? Could they be water armies bought by the company?
He didn't know that this group of people included not only Youmeng players, but also many simple players and other game enthusiasts.
The comments were flashing so fast that he couldn't even see the words that were flashing by so quickly on the screen when he tried to reply according to the standard answers listed on the paper.
"Slow down," Ye Xing said with a helpless smile, "I can't see what you are asking, how can I answer you?"
The barrage paused for a moment, and most viewers were still trying to slow down the speed of posting the barrage.
Some barrages were posted more frequently.
"Why does the way the real NPC guy smiles make me feel a little moved?"
"You in front are not a person! No, I mean, you are not the only one who feels this way, I feel the same way as well."
"Can you see, sisters in front, that the little brother's smile is helpless but also contains three parts of doting and three parts of confusion? There is light in his eyes when he smiles!"
"That's the live broadcast light. Why are you making so much drama?"
When he saw these comments, he didn't know what to say and didn't even dare to laugh.
Ye Xuan planned to get to the point as written in the process, and began to explain the accident on his own, completely ignoring the barrage of comments that were once again confusing.
When he talked about what Wuya Games had done, the text scrolling on the screen became more sharp, and a war of words broke out between extreme players from several game companies.
At this time, right and wrong were no longer the focus of their concern. The bad temper accumulated in the three lives was aroused, and the "black material" that was difficult to distinguish between true and false was released without thinking. Lu Zhu, who was just watching the fun, mixed in with the missiles and fanned the flames, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a time.
Ye Xing couldn't think of a way to deal with this situation for a while, so he could only pretend that he didn't open the barrage.
As long as he can't see it, these things didn't happen and there's no need to respond!
He continued to read the contents of the paper like a robot, without any emotion.
Many viewers no longer cared about what he was saying. The content of the live broadcast was no longer the focus. This live broadcast room had completely become their battlefield. More and more people poured in, and the battle became increasingly fierce.
Without being disturbed by the barrage of comments, Ye Xuan soon finished reading all the content the company required him to say and planned to close the live broadcast room.
At this moment, his mobile phone screen lit up and a new message popped up.
Sister Lin: Xiaoxuan, don’t close the live broadcast room for now. We have held a meeting to discuss countermeasures. This live broadcast is still useful.
He looked at the comments, which were still blurry, and thought about his reply.
Ye Xuan: Sister Lin, if they continue to curse like this, the live broadcast room will probably be blocked. Do we have any other countermeasures?
Sister Lin: We asked you to start broadcasting to appease the players, but now it has become a mess. The more we stir things up, the more trouble we are causing.
Ye Xuan: I didn’t want to do that! They pushed me up at the last minute, and the script didn’t say this would happen!
Sure enough, this crappy company still hasn't made any progress. He wasn't given any employee training before, and now he's left to figure things out on his own.
Was he recruited to conduct experiments in self-learning artificial intelligence?
Ye Xuan also complained a lot, and netizens no longer cared whether he was live streaming or not. After arguing for a long time, they still couldn't come to a conclusion, but Wu Ya was scolded badly.
Wuya is not very popular among the public, and its games are not that good. It can be played to kill time when you have nothing to do, but people will get bored of it very easily and turn to other games.
Wuya's user base grew rapidly, but it also lost users quickly. The company operated in this cycle of new and old users. Then it continued to increase its advertising investment and continued to make games with its feet, repeating the cycle over and over again.
Ye Xuan was very puzzled by this behavior pattern. Although he didn't play games very often, he at least knew that a good game shouldn't be like this and shouldn't be just a temporary novelty.
He believes that a good game should be unforgettable. Even if many years have passed or the game has been shut down, it will always remain in the hearts of some people.
