Chapter 55 Investigation Cooperation is Happy
The more Ye Xuan thought about it, the better he felt this was. Once the background data was fully disclosed, it would be enough to prove that those rumors were fabricated.
After all, in the face of absolute evidence, pale arguments are the most useless.
As an employee, he did not expect this, but was reminded of it by the players.
It seems that their company should accept more opinions from users in the future. It is always better to gather ideas from all sides than to come up with ideas on their own.
He quickly posted this matter to the company group.
Soon, Sister Lin hurriedly pushed open the door of Ye Xuan's office: "Xiao Xuan, thanks to you for reading the forum carefully, this is really a great achievement."
"The results haven't come out yet, so don't rush to praise me." He scratched his head embarrassedly. This idea was not his own.
"You are good at finding clues," Sister Lin said confidently, "Even the forum administrators didn't realize how critical these discussions were when they reviewed them. You read them very carefully."
"It was just a coincidence, it was not intentional..." Ye Xing pushed the notebook on the table in front of the other party, "I did find another thing, this reply is a bit strange, you can give it to them to investigate."
Sister Lin read that sentence with a frown on her face. It seemed that the person who replied had some opinions about Youmeng officials. She didn't know if he had been brainwashed on the Internet or was one of the rumor spreaders.
If it is the latter, it means that the force has infiltrated their internal website, and may even be overtly or covertly encouraging original players to abandon "Dream Game" and turn to other games.
Although Ye Xuan didn't play games much, he had seen similar incidents in the news.
Holographic online games are now developing at a good momentum. After discovering the profitability, many traditional online game companies are also considering how to get a piece of the pie.
You Meng has been in the spotlight recently, so it is normal for him to be targeted.
It's just that they don't know what the other party wants.
Market competition does not mean that you can make profits by maliciously damaging the brand of one party.
The gaming industry is not an industry that is easy to monopolize. Anyone who wants to make a name for themselves must have solid skills.
Even though Qingyin Studio has been imitating Shazhou Company, it has its own unique highlights and is accepted by the majority of players.
No matter what the other party's purpose is, they must get to the bottom of this matter and clear You Meng and his own efforts to make ends meet.
Ye Xing glanced at it and suddenly found that the screen, which had been black for a long time, was actually turning white little by little from the four corners to the center.
He was stunned for a moment, until the white covered half of the darkness, then he realized that it was Wuming's people who came online!
More and more white lines flowed slowly, covering all the black wherever they went. Only a few places retained the black, and shapes and words gradually appeared.
When the white line stopped, the interface had already become a dialog box. The simple frame and a few words of explanation were all black left over from the places where the white line had not flowed just now.
Ye Xuan was still quite shocked after seeing these changes.
After all, no normal person would create such an artistic "cutscene" just for a dialog box.
He moved the mouse and lightly clicked the upper left corner of the dialog input area, looking at the lit cursor, not knowing how to start.
Asking directly from the start was too direct, and their two families had a short period of "hostility" before, so this approach did not seem to be the best choice.
Just when he was hesitating about what to say, the other party sent a message first.
[Unnamed] I know you are here, I know how long you have been waiting, I even know where you are from, Youmeng employee.
Ye Xuan was shocked. How did the other party know all this?
Then he thought about it for a while and realized that it was the other party's website. It was normal that they knew about it, but he was just a little scared by these words.
After finding out Ye Xuan's IP address, the other party changed his name to "You Meng" and waited for the other party to send him a message.
It seems that the person on the other side is probably a newcomer, very different from the guy who was straightforward last time.
Since he is a newcomer, he doesn't mind practicing business with the young employees of his future partner. He just needs to be patient.
Yes, he was smart enough. He naturally figured out why You Meng was looking for them at this time. As long as both parties reached an agreement on cooperation, it would be a mutually beneficial and win-win situation.
After a long time, the other party finally sent a message.
【Youmeng】Is cooperation... possible?
He's a hilarious new guy.
…
Ye Xuan felt that since the other party knew so much, they probably understood his intention of contacting them this time, so he might as well ask directly if they could cooperate.
However, Sister Lin said that everyone in Wuming is socially anxious, and he is not particularly good at communicating with others, so he doesn't know how to express his intention to cooperate in a tactful way.
So just use a short question and add ellipsis to leave room for people to respond. I think that should be feasible.
After hesitating for a while, he chose this one from many options. It was the first time he expressed the company's desire to cooperate with the other party, and he was still a little embarrassed.
It would be bad if you messed up, so be more careful.
He wondered if the network was too slow, and the other party's reply took a long time to come. He was very nervous, fearing that he would be rejected.
Wuming is the best cooperation target they can find now. If they do not accept this cooperation, the investigation will be delayed again and again.
You Meng couldn't afford to wait for such a long investigation period. The malicious slanderers were obviously well prepared. It was just unknown whether the competition was their goal or the fuse. Their self-sufficient attitude seemed to have some unspeakable hidden meaning.
If the enemy's targets include both of them, does it mean that the enemy is not just one party, but a group of people driven by common interests?
Because we have ruled out the possibility that the player is a "You Meng" player, we have not found anything in common between her and You Meng, so she should not be targeted by the same group of people.
Ye Xuan's thoughts were like a large ball of tangled and knotted colorful wool. It was difficult to even tie them into a regular ball, let alone sort them out.
There are too many unclear clues mixed together, making it difficult to tell the correct direction.
Youmeng is indeed capable of making games, but handling this kind of thing is not his strong point. If he could cooperate with Wuming, he would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
The screen flashed and a new message appeared.
【Anonymous】That’s exactly what we meant.
Ye Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, his heart finally settling down.
Everyone's analysis is good. Wuming is in urgent need of cooperating with them to break free from the "binding" with Wuya.
But they usually don’t come to others directly, they just wait for the other party to contact them.
He made the right move.
When Ye Xuan informed Sister Lin that the cooperation was going smoothly, the other party instructed him to first ask the nameless person to investigate the "well-known" administrator. They could check the internal problems themselves, but the external ones were more difficult.
He was going to send the administrator's forum ID and screenshot of the speech to the other party, but he couldn't find the image transfer function in the dialog box.
After asking the other party, I learned that this is actually just a way of conversation to increase their own mystery. It will no longer be needed after the cooperation is agreed upon, and other software can be used.
【Unknown】Let’s exchange contact information.
Ye Xuan was speechless. Why use such flashy things to create the so-called sense of mystery?
He successfully added the other party on the communication software. After the verification was passed, he added the word "Unknown" in the remarks to avoid recognizing the wrong person.
(Unnamed) Ah Wu: It’s a pleasure working with you. Just call me Ah Wu.
Ye Xuan: It’s a pleasure working with you. My name is Ye Xuan and “Xing” sounds the same as “Xing”.
(Unnamed) Ah Wu: Ye Xuan... This word doesn't look good when typed with my font. Can I call you "Mars"?
Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment. Wasn't it agreed that all Wuming people were socially anxious? How could this person be more familiar than him?
But on second thought, there are indeed many people who don’t like to communicate with others in real life but are very active on the Internet. Maybe Ah Wu is this type.
In order to avoid conflicts at the very beginning of the cooperation, Ye Xing agreed to this title.
Anyway, it’s not the first time that someone has given me a nickname, so just call me that.
Wuming’s efficiency is indeed good and the results come out very quickly.
Not long after, Ah Wu contacted him and said that the preliminary investigation had been completed.
Ye Xuan: Who is that administrator?
He was a little curious and even suppressed his anger towards the administrator's behavior.
(Unnamed) Ah Wu: The administrator has left. We cannot find out where he is now. His identity is currently unknown.
Ye Xuan was a little disappointed with this "preliminary investigation" at first, and then he thought of another question.
Ye Xuan: Left? But not long ago I saw that person banning people in the forum. Is it that a "well-known" forum is protecting him?
(Unnamed) Ah Wu: Probably not. The other party has most likely stolen the identity of the original administrator.
Identity theft?
Ye Xuan didn't expect that there was such an operation, so he quickly asked the other party to explain it in detail.
(Unnamed) Ah Wu: The administrator with ID 94573 left the company six months ago, and the account should have been cancelled. The current account IP address does not match the record of the company, so it is very likely that someone else is using this account as a cover.
The clue ended here again. Ye Xuan sighed and leaned back in his chair.
What should I do now? There is obviously something wrong with that administrator. If the clue ends here...
No, all I can say is that if even the clues here are cut off so easily, then the subsequent investigation will probably be even more difficult.
Even with Wuming's help, this kind of thing cannot be solved in a short time.
However, the speed of public opinion is difficult to predict. It may disappear overnight, or it may spread overnight. This is difficult to control.
Otherwise, let Ah Wu turn around and investigate the user on the Youmeng official forum.
Ye Xuan took a look at the message sent by Sister Lin. There was no record of the player with that account opening a forum account at a commonly used IP address in the background. If it is possible to steal the account of a large forum administrator, then wouldn’t it be easy to steal a game player’s account?
The enemy was more troublesome than they expected.
