Chapter 102: Don’t laugh, I’m really panicking
The next morning.
The sunlight slanted down through the wind from the Huangpu River and reflected on Lu Ming's face.
When he opened his eyes, his neck was still stiff and his back was very sore.
The bedroom was obviously very large, but Lu Ming just couldn't sleep comfortably.
He rubbed his eyes and sat up.
Cashback failed, multiplier invalid, moral debt cleared.
These words echoed repeatedly in his mind.
But at this moment, Lu Ming was surprisingly calm.
There is one,
A completely numb Buddhist feeling.
He stretched his shoulders, washed up, and walked slowly to the company.
…
Ten o'clock in the morning.
Lao Wang knocked on the door and came in.
"Mr. Lu."
He handed over a printed cash flow statement.
"Last month, a sum of money came into my account from 'Krypton Life Cultivation'!"
"We are now using our own platform. After deducting other due fees, the company's net income this time is about 7 million yuan, which has been transferred to the company account in a timely manner."
Lu Ming was stunned.
“…And this?”
I asked why the money in the company account was more than he calculated.
It seems that "氪命修仙" is profitable!
Lao Wang nodded.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, the data this time is indeed good. Qiliang from the game said that although there are no new activities online, the number of players recharging is still stable!"
"The traffic from new players is also pretty good, and a lot of players have spent a lot of money on it."
"So Qiliang asked me to ask you something. He's planning to create a replica of his divine manifestation. What do you think about that?"
"ah……"
Lu Ming lowered his head and flipped through the report that Lao Wang handed over, and sure enough.
"氪命修仙" has achieved complete profitability!
The profits they make are enough to cover everyone’s expenses, and there’s even more!
"It's hard for me not to be moved by his actions."
"Don't start the dungeon yet. Just have him continue with the maintenance work. If the game is profitable, we'll give it the 40% cut we agreed on. You can calculate it carefully and give it to the '氪命修仙' project team."
Lu Ming raised his eyelids. Since they had already made money, it would be unreasonable to intervene again!
Project money is also money!
In addition, the project is already generating revenue, so it would be wrong to pull the plug on it no matter how you look at it.
As for the profit sharing, that was something we had agreed on before and must be implemented as soon as possible.
Lao Wang left excitedly.
As soon as the door closed, Lu Ming quickly opened the system interface and clicked on "Settlement Cycle Settings" again.
He has learned his lesson.
Can’t wait until the end of the month!
Lu Ming didn't want to experience that kind of life-threatening rhythm of pushing the line again.
【Please select the next settlement cycle】
Lu Ming thought about it and chose without hesitation
One month
"Three months is too radical, one month is more suitable for me!"
The next second, a line of prompts appeared:
【Settlement cycle has been locked to one month】
[Host, please accumulate moral debt value during this cycle to obtain the next cashback benefit]
"November, let's take it slow."
Lu Ming nodded.
He knew what this meant.
This means,
For the next whole month, he will embark on a journey of seeking scolding again.
But this time...
He's not in that hurry.
Because at this moment, he is much calmer than yesterday.
He also knew that
As long as the game is still running, players are still posting, and the plot is still fermenting...
Sooner or later, there will be a wave of truly negative reviews coming in over the weekend.
"Yes, I'm talking about you, 'A Journey Through Time'!"
Lu Ming closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.
What is supposed to come will come!
And now, he only needs to do one thing.
wait.
…
On weekends, Lu Ming sat in his study.
While brewing wolfberry tea, I leisurely stared at the platform's backend data.
The numbers in the background are beating quietly.
The download volume of "Time Journey" is increasing rapidly!
"Here I come."
His eyes lit up, he put down the teacup, and immediately held the mouse with both hands, like a player who was about to join the team to gain points.
Lu Ming rubbed his hands.
When I opened the comment section, as expected, a familiar atmosphere hit me.
[2 points: I played all night last night and couldn't stand it anymore. This game isn't about shooting guns, it's about psychology.]
[1 point: This is the first time I've been scolded by an NPC and had to quit the game. Seriously, thank you, developer.]
[1 point, if you're a soulmate, just be a soulmate, don't try to talk about the depth of a community with a shared future for mankind]
[1 point! Came for the promo, left for the promo!]
[Bad review! The game is too difficult, the enemies are basically unstoppable, and the difficulty is ridiculously high! There is not even a modifier!]
My expectations were high, but now it's still just a simulator!
After reading these comments, Lu Ming was slightly excited.
Here it comes.
They are all back.
It’s a real bad review.
Just like the first thunderstorm in spring, it rumbles and brings hope to people!
Lu Ming stared at the comment section, feeling better than ever.
I wish this state came sooner!
If I had come yesterday, I wouldn't have to keep my neck stiff.
My 300 square meters can at least be expanded by double!
A long-lost smile appeared on Lu Ming's face.
…
But at this moment, the atmosphere among the employees was completely different.
"What happened? The rating suddenly dropped by 0.6?"
"Is there anyone taking care of this marketing? Why are all the reviews negative?"
"Is it necessary to hold an impromptu meeting?"
"I don't know either. I checked the negative reviews and they're not malicious. They're all real!"
“…”
In the core management group, project manager Zhou Yizhou remained silent.
He just got off the high-speed train.
It’s dinner time.
Lu Ming was leisurely eating the heated oden when his cell phone rang.
It was Zhou Yizhou who called.
"What? Lao Zhou, you said you were in Shanghai?"
"What are you doing here on the weekend?"
"Okay, then you go first!"
Lu Ming sent his home location to Zhou Yizhou.
A few minutes later, Zhou Yizhou came downstairs.
In front of the large flat.
Zhou Yizhou took three deep breaths.
The door opens.
Lu Ming, who was wearing slippers and holding a bottle of happy water in the room, was stunned for a second.
Zhou Yizhou in front of me looked exhausted, with a briefcase in his hand, and his face was full of fatigue and sincere apology.
Meet Lu Ming.
Zhou Yizhou immediately put down his briefcase and stood at attention.
"Mr. Lu! I was wrong!"
"I'm here to plead guilty!"
"I'm a sinner, I'm a disgrace to the project, I'm the one who brought down the game!"
Lu Ming almost spit out his drink.
What instigator? You are the most reliable screw in my heart.
"Hey, hey, hey! Calm down!"
Lu Ming pulled him into the door.
"Sit! Sit first!"
"Why do you have to take the high-speed train from Hangzhou?"
"We... shouldn't be that serious, right?"
Zhou Yizhou couldn't sit or stand.
He put the bag down, his face filled with frustration.
He stood in front of Lu Ming like a prisoner awaiting trial.
"Mr. Lu... the game rating is now 3.2."
"The reviews are overwhelmingly negative! We're losing our core players!"
"It's me. I failed you!"
Judging from the scoring pattern, Zhou Yizhou knows it very well!
This is the rhythm of collapse!
He knew that the Internet was full of insults.
He had experienced this before! But this time was different!
This is a game that cost 60 million!
This is the result of President Lu's full trust in him!
Lu Ming looked at him and was about to laugh, but he forced himself to hold it back.
Yes, I can’t laugh.
People are really panicking.
