Chapter 7
Ren Yueqian was eloquent and could not think of any reason to refute this statement.
But even though it makes sense, I still feel unhappy.
She snorted and went to loot the loot while cursing, thinking that she was a few kills behind Lin Xun and that she had to be the MVP of the game.
However, before this round was over, a WeChat message suddenly popped up above the phone.
Yue Qianling took a glance and saw that it was the work group created by their team.
She said "Huh", a little confused.
It would be reasonable for the team leader to immediately create another small group without her after she left.
Even if he didn't do that, why would he send a message to this group again?
She thought about it and decided to switch out and take a look before the game entered a fierce fight.
When I took a look, I saw news related to myself.
[Team Leader]: Did you know that Qianling is coming back to work?
Yue Qianling's mind was full of question marks, not understanding what she was doing.
Obviously other people didn’t understand either and sent question marks one after another.
[Team Leader]: I heard the boss talking about this when I went upstairs to get the invoice today.
No one in the group responded, but that didn't stop her from continuing.
[Team leader]: The boss is very angry, saying that Qianling treats the company as a vegetable market where she can come and go as she pleases? Besides, the company doesn't necessarily need her, and can't let her break the rules like this, otherwise she'll think she's some big shot with hundreds of millions in monthly turnover. Today's fresh graduates are just impatient and always want to reach the sky in one step. They have to have the ability to achieve their goals even if they have lofty ambitions.
Someone answered the call, but only sent a string of ambiguous “…”
And the team leader continued.
[Team leader]: Chen Yin’s face turned pale when she heard this. I told her not to hire such people in the future.
[Team Leader]: What a pity! We were going to launch a Christmas event soon. If the turnover was high, we could get a huge bonus.
[Team Leader]: Hey, you must not tell anyone about these things.
After a while.
[Huang Jie]: Team leader...did you send this to the wrong group?
A few seconds later.
[Team Leader]: Oops, I read it wrong! !
[Team leader]: @糯米小麻花千灵 I'm sorry, what I just said may have been exaggerated. In fact, the boss's attitude should not be that angry, so don't take it to heart.
With Yue Qianling's understanding of the team leader, she could naturally tell that she had deliberately sent the message to the wrong group so that she could see it, and she might even have exaggerated the words she used.
So she had no intention of cooperating with her to complete the performance.
But even if he ignores it, the fact that the team leader dares to do so at least shows the boss's attitude.
It's cold.
There's no hope.
Just at this moment, a call from Chen Yin appeared on the phone.
Looking at the images jumping on the screen, Yue Qianling took a deep breath before answering the call.
The female voice in the headset whispered: "Hello, Qianling."
As soon as Chen Yin's voice came out, Yue Qianling's heart sank.
Chen Yin's next sentence was: "You may not be able to come back to work, it's like this..."
Her words were very tactful. She did not mention the boss's attitude at all. She only said that the boss asked them to do things according to the regulations in an attempt to ease Yue Qianling's heart.
Yue Qianling still had a trace of reluctance left, and asked: "The Christmas event is about to be released, and the card designs I drew before have not been finalized. You know that players like my style of painting very much..."
"Of course I know." Chen Yin interrupted her, "But you also know that our boss doesn't care about the concept artist of a mobile game project. I don't think I can bring it up with her anymore."
Okay.
Yue Qianling knocked her head on the table and said, "I understand, Sister Yinyin, thank you for your help."
After hanging up the phone, Yue Qianling took off her headphones, threw away her phone, sat at the desk, and fell into deep thought.
If she can't go back, then she can just save the country in a roundabout way!
HC Interactive Entertainment wasn't the only company in that office building. If she remembered correctly, there was a well-known animation company next to it.
If all else fails, there are online AI education companies nearby that are looking for illustrators.
In short, if you want to be in the same circle of action with Gu Xun, there are always more solutions than problems.
Yue Qianling did what she said and immediately turned on the computer to start writing her resume.
The resumes for previous campus recruitment and internships were still saved, and she didn't spend too much time on it, mainly adding her internship experience during this period.
More than an hour later, Yue Qianling sent out three resumes before she lay down on the bed with her phone in her hand, feeling satisfied.
However, as soon as she swiped the screen, she saw that she was still in the game interface, but it showed that she was offline, and the other three people had already quit the game.
Yue Qianling: “……!”
She was so busy that she actually forgot she was still in the game.
Thinking of the three teammates, she quickly switched to WeChat to explain, but saw several missed voice messages and four unread messages.
【School Prince】: Are you there?
【School Prince】: Kidnapped?
There are a few minutes between the above two.
[School Prince]: Hello, I am her friend. How much do you want me to pay to let her out to finish this game?
[School Prince]: You can tie her back after beating her.
The guilt I felt towards him instantly dissipated halfway, and I even felt a little angry.
[Nuomi Xiaomahua]: Without her, you won’t be able to play games?
【School Prince】: Yes.
Yue Qianling: “…”
【School Prince】: Where have you been?
【Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks】: I received a phone call.
【School Prince】:?
【Glutinous rice twisted dough sticks】：?
[School Prince]: I was getting beaten at the training base, but you were chatting on the phone?
Get beaten?
After hearing this word, Yue Qianling subconsciously thought that the three of them had performed really badly in the past few rounds, and quickly opened the game to find the battle record page.
Seeing Lin Xun's kills, damage, and points, Yue Qianling felt like there was something wrong with her brain for her to actually think that he would get beaten.
His greatest contribution to the balance of the game is that he doesn't chase after others.
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: When did you learn to play the victim?
[School Prince]: Why should I be so pitiful?
[School Prince]: I didn’t leave you to call someone else.
【Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks】: Work! ! Of course work matters are more important than you! ! !
After a moment.
[School Prince]: Okay, I accept this reason.
Why didn't I think he was so petty before?
It’s really a headache.
Yue Qianling looked up at the time and it was getting late.
She switched to a WeChat group of four people.
[Glutinous Rice Mahua]: Sorry, I just received a phone call. Are you guys still playing?
【School Prince】: Not coming.
【Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks】: I didn’t ask you.
[Xiaomi]: I’m glad you’re okay. I have classes tomorrow morning, so I have to go to sleep.
[Camel]: There’s still a call at this late hour, my idol?
【Glutinous Rice Dough】: I want to QAQ
【Glutinous Rice Mahua】：But we haven’t reached that stage yet.
[Camel]: Hahaha, he must be very handsome, right?
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: So cool! The hair is very handsome and the hands are super beautiful too!
[Camel]: So handsome, do you have a photo?
【Glutinous rice fried dough twist】: No QAQ
Another dormitory building.
Under the dim light, the boy's quiet profile was reflected by the white light and looked too cold.
There was not enough space under the desk for his legs, so he put one leg on the table leg, leaned against the back of the chair, clasped his hands in front of his chest, frowned slightly, and stared at the phone on the table with his eyes lowered.
When he saw the word "no", he sneered, put down his legs, and was about to get up when his roommate Jiang Junnan suddenly pushed the door open.
The courses for this semester have long been completed, and the other two roommates have gone to other places for internships. Apart from Gu Xun, only Jiang Junnan, the test-taker, is making the final sprint.
"Fuck, it's really cold today." Jiang Junnan came in rubbing his hands and rushed to the radiator to keep warm. "I'll be free in a few days. Want to play some games?"
Gu Xun threw his phone on the table, turned on his computer, and said coldly, "Log in."
The branches were withered, the sky was still and the earth was closed, and the whole campus fell into silence.
Jiang Junnan had been holding back for a long time, and today he couldn't stop playing the game once he touched it. He was so immersed in it that he didn't notice the passage of time at all.
By the time the two men left, it was already 3:30 in the morning.
It was okay that Jiang Junnan rarely let himself go, but I didn't expect that Gu Xun, who had to work, would play so late.
Not only was he late, but he also used violent output throughout the whole process. Several times, his actions shocked Jiang Junnan so much that he thought the opposing player had snatched Gu Xun's girlfriend.
He thought for a moment and asked, "You were fired?"
Gu Xun glanced at him sideways, "Only the weak sleep."
Jiang Junnan immediately put on his headphones again: "Then give me another 100 million."
Gu Xun took off his headphones and walked towards the balcony without even turning off his computer.
As soon as the door opened, a rush of cold air rushed into the room.
Jiang Junnan folded his arms, half leaned on the chair, and looked back at him: "Hey, Gu Xun, are you in a bad mood today?"
Gu Xun washed his hands in front of the sink and said nonchalantly, "I'm in a very good mood, otherwise how could I play games with you until now?"
At the end of the year, although the weather is getting colder, exams are approaching and classes for all grades have almost ended, so the school library is always crowded.
Xiaomai was taking an exam and Luotuo was on a business trip, so naturally they had little time to play games.
What’s strange is that an idle person like Lin Xun actually disappeared and there has been no news for several days.
Since no one asked her to go online every day, Yue Qianling spent a few days in the dormitory working on her graduation project peacefully.
The light from the desk was dimmed on her face, and her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her lower eyelids.
She propped her chin up and casually swiped her phone, and saw that colleagues from her former project team had all posted a Christmas event preview PV on their Moments.
Since joining HC Interactive Entertainment, Yue Qianling has been working in an otome game project team.
She was lucky at that time, as the project had just been established and was short of manpower, so she, an intern, had the opportunity to serve as the original artist for two of the male protagonists.
Since the launch of the game, the popularity of the two male protagonists has remained high, crushing the other three male protagonists by a large margin.
Of course, the copywriter has made a great contribution to this, but Yue Qianling's portrayal of character details is also a key factor in winning the favor of players.
In comparison, the other two male protagonists that the team leader is responsible for seem to be all the same.
To this day, when Yue Qianling sees the new trailer PV, she feels like a divorced mother visiting her ex-husband to see her son.
The first person to post the preview PV link in the circle of friends was the team leader.
Yue Qianling clicked on it, took a quick look, and then walked out with a frown.
She typed several times wanting to ask who took over the original drawings of the two male protagonists' card faces, but after thinking about it, she resisted the urge.
But this doesn't mean that other people can't see it, after all, the art style and atmosphere are so different.
After a while, a friend sent a private message to Yue Qianling.
This person is Yue Qianling’s college classmate. He downloaded the game to play because he saw Yue Qianling promoting this game on her WeChat Moments. He has spent a lot of money on it in half a year.
Her topic was also very straightforward, and she directly asked Yue Qianling whether the male protagonist had changed the painter.
【Glutinous rice twisted dough sticks】：? ? ?
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: Why are you so sensitive?
[Xiao Wan]: Please, this is my husband. I can even see that he has fewer hairs on his eyebrows.
[Xiao Wan]: Why don’t you paint anymore?
[Glutinous Rice Mahua]: I quit my job.
[Xiao Wan]: I see. Then who drew this? It’s too ugly!
[Xiao Wan]: When did my husband's smile become so evil and crazy? ? ?
[Xiao Wan]: And these pants, what’s the purpose of revealing the underwear logo? ? ?
[Xiao Wan]: I'm so angry! With this face, I don’t even want to spend money to draw cards! I don't want to receive his call! I'm afraid I'll get greasy!
Xiaowan was so angry, and she didn’t know what other players were thinking.
Yue Qianling's eyes turned and she opened the official Weibo of the game.
As she expected, the comment section of the latest event preview PV on Weibo has been flooded, and the topic forum is naturally not immune.
Yue Qianling took over the design of these two characters after the concept drawing. Now seeing them being scolded, Yue Qianling felt uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, she can't do anything about it now.
After yawning, Yue Qianling continued to work on her graduation project.
But after a while, someone actually came to find her.
[Huang Jie]: Qianling, have you watched today’s preview PV?
Yue Qianling thought about it and didn't tell the truth.
【Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks】: I haven’t watched it yet, what’s the matter?
[Huang Jie]: Alas, you didn’t know that the male protagonist you originally drew was the most popular. After you left, the team leader took over. As a result, when the PV came out today, the players were furious and very dissatisfied.
[Huang Jie]: Now the team leader is losing his temper with us in the meeting.
[Huang Jie]: Really, what does this have to do with us?
[Huang Jie]: We didn’t draw it!
Yue Qianling: “…”
She hadn't expected this.
[Huang Jie]: If we fail to reach our revenue target this month, we will be in trouble.
[Huang Jie]: It would be great if you hadn’t left.
[Huang Jie]: Let me ask you a quick question: are you willing to outsource?
Yue Qianling: “…”
She was speechless for a long time before she typed two words back.
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: No, I’m busy with my graduation project recently.
Although outsourcing this card business doesn't actually take up too much of her energy, she can still earn a decent amount of money.
However, thinking about what the boss said and what the team leader had done, she didn't want to lose this person.
Let the team leader worry about it.
[Huang Jie]: Then the team leader has to make some changes himself. We can’t help you anyway.
change?
Yue Qianling was waiting to see what this team leader could come up with.
The next morning, because it was the weekend, Yue Qianling and Yin Xue both slept in.
When she opened her eyes, the sun was already high in the sky and there were several unread messages on her phone.
[Xiao Wan]: HC wants to shut down the server, right? ? ? ?
[Xiao Wan]: Damn, I'm so mad! ! !
Yue Qianling asked her in a daze what happened, and got up and turned on a light.
Xiaowan’s anger was about to burst through the screen of her phone and head straight for Yue Qianling.
[Xiao Wan]: You don’t know? ? ?
[Xiao Wan]: Just go to the super topic and check it out! ! !
Yue Qianling followed her instructions and opened the game chat, which immediately woke her up.
Here's the thing.
Although this otome game is not a phenomenally popular game since its release, its monthly revenue has been considerable.
As the financial sponsor, if players are dissatisfied with something, the game company will naturally make adjustments.
So the project team modified the card faces of the two male protagonists overnight, and posted an apology on Weibo and an updated card face post.
In this way, the husband is still the familiar husband, the game player is quite satisfied, and the anger is finally calmed down.
But after a while, someone used PS to compare this card design with previous card designs and made an overlay image.
This is basically just a change of clothes and background, and the male protagonist's face was directly used in the old one!
At this point, the players' anger was completely ignited. Not to mention the Christmas krypton gold, many krypton guys jointly declared a krypton boycott, which directly hit the vital point of the game.
As for why Xiaowan came directly to Yue Qianling.
Because even Xiaowan could see that the face of the character copied on the card this time was the event card that Yue Qianling drew for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
This lousy team leader really broke Yue Qianling's cognition once again.
She didn't even know, was it the team leader who was stupid, or was it that the team leader thought the players were stupid?
After marveling at it for a long time, Yue Qianling shook his head and put down his phone, sighing that there are really all kinds of birds in a big forest.
Just then, her cell phone screen suddenly lit up.
Call from Chen Yin.
Yue Qianling focused his mind and immediately pressed the answer button.
The other party probably didn't expect Yue Qianling to answer immediately, and the voice came out directly: "Boss is really impatient! You let me do such embarrassing things!"
After she finished speaking, she realized that the call was connected. She was stunned for two seconds, and then a gentle voice came out.
"Qianling, are you awake? Sister has something to ask you."
