Mo Yu Internet Cafe.

"Teacher Qiao, are you sure you don't want to appear in the video or be credited as a co-creator?" Zhu Xiaoce asked.

Qiao Liang nodded. "Yeah, no need. Your studio is very professional. I just offered a few suggestions on some details. It's not really a collaboration."

Zhu Xiaoce shook his head. "Teacher Qiao, you're too modest. As a senior up-loader, your ability to grasp the psychology of the audience is definitely a strength. The version we had before was a bit out of touch with reality. It's much better after the changes you suggested."

"However, if you insist on not adding a joint creation credit, we will definitely respect your opinion."

Qiao Liang's attitude was firm. "Yeah, thanks."

Zhu Xiaoce stood up. "Okay, then I'll go back to the studio to edit the footage. Thanks for your hard work during this time! Thank you very much!"

Qiao Liang said with a smile, "It's all part of the job. Everyone is responsible for exposing such garbage companies!"

After sending Zhu Xiaoce out the door, Qiao Liang returned to the Mo Yu Internet Cafe and sat back in his seat.

Qiao Liang had been helping Zhu Xiaoce make a video exposing the formaldehyde apartments of the Zhujia Group, but he neither appeared on camera nor participated in the filming or post-production.

Because Qiao Liang discovered that Fei Huang Studio was professional after all, and far surpassed his own non-major up-loader in terms of equipment and shooting techniques. There was really nothing for him to intervene in.

However, Fei Huang Studio's initial plan also had some problems.

Fei Huang Studio had previously filmed short videos, documentaries, and movies, so they were more inclined to produce content efficiently and concisely. Their storytelling techniques were undoubtedly top-notch.

But the subject matter of this video was more like a review, an output of opinions, and at this time, the audience's acceptance had to be considered. Fei Huang Studio's original plan lacked this aspect.

When Qiao Liang was making videos, he paid close attention to the audience's feelings, expressing his attitude to the extent that they could accept it, and resonating with everyone.

Therefore, Qiao Liang simply corrected some details to make the video more grounded in reality while objectively exposing the facts.

Currently, volunteers have been found all over the country, and Fei Huang Studio staff have contacted professional testing agencies and flown over to film. After all the video material is filmed, it will be edited later, and it can probably be released in three or four days.

As for Qiao Liang, after finishing this video, he suddenly felt a kind of inexplicable confusion.

Originally, he stayed in Jingzhou to think carefully about what was missing from the Haunted House video.

But after thinking about it for so many days, he still had no clue.

He heard that *Struggle* had been released, so he played it, but before he could figure out how to make a new video, the official account posted a Weibo, completely blocking Qiao Liang's path.

This was very rigid!

Qiao Liang really wanted to ask President Pei, I have already given up on interpreting *Struggle* with *A Masterpiece*, but I still can't figure out what's missing from the Haunted House video!

For some reason, he inexplicably felt like he had been tricked.

If it weren't for his great trust in President Pei, Qiao Liang would have really thought that President Pei was a liar.

He silently opened the fan group, wanting to spy on what the silly group members were discussing.

"Old Qiao, come out quickly! Something big happened, someone is stealing your job!"

"Look at this Weibo post, it's already gone viral online!"

"Is this He An famous?"

"More than famous, he's like a Taishan Beidou figure in the domestic single-player game circle! *Landlord Game* was made by him! This kind of big shot is actually coming out to interpret Tenda's games. I think Teacher Qiao is about to lose his job."

"Tenda really has face!"

"I think this is basic operation. The official account is frantically touting 'the light of domestic games.' It's not surprising that an old game producer would come out and praise it."

"Praise 'a few words'? Did you look again? This is a 10,000-word essay!"

Seeing the enthusiastic discussion in the fan group, Qiao Liang was a little confused.

What do you mean?

Why are you saying I'm about to lose my job?

Scrolling up through the chat history, Qiao Liang found a link to a Weibo post. After clicking on it, he saw He An's long Weibo post.

Qiao Liang's first reaction was shock, and his second reaction was unwillingness to accept it.

Someone is really stealing my business!

Before, after Tenda Games were released, Qiao Liang's *A Masterpiece* was always the first to interpret its meaning, and it was also the best interpretation.

I can't say that I 100% answered President Pei's true intentions, but at least I interpreted 80% of it, and no one has been able to surpass it.

As a single-player game up-loader, Qiao Liang had of course heard of He An's name. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he grew up playing his games.

However, He An had already retired from the martial world for many years. In the early days of the rise of domestic games, his few single-player games did cause a sensation, but after he switched to online games, he gradually faded from the players' vision.

Qiao Liang was unconvinced. The old predecessor is indeed an old predecessor, but you haven't touched single-player games for ten years, have you?

Moreover, the Weibo post that President Pei sent has completely blocked many interpretation directions. If you just repeat and analyze the content that players have already interpreted, you will undoubtedly fall behind.

Even so, can you still steal my job?

I, Teacher Qiao, don't believe it one hundred times.

However, whether he believed it or not, Teacher Qiao still clicked on the long Weibo post and carefully examined it from beginning to end.

After reading it, Qiao Liang was completely convinced.

Only four words remained in his mind: dimensional reduction strike!

Especially the words that He An said at the beginning of the long Weibo post: "This game is a textbook for game makers. If you don't have professional knowledge of game making, you may not understand it."

In Qiao Liang's view, isn't this what he's saying to himself!

Sure enough, your grandpa is still your grandpa.

As a senior game enthusiast, Qiao Liang had always looked down on these game makers, feeling that many mediocre game makers were nothing more than that, and their understanding of games was not necessarily deeper than his own.

But looking at it today, he was completely wrong.

You still can't use your own hobbies to challenge other people's jobs. No matter what, there is still a big gap between amateur and professional.

Of course, everyone makes mistakes. When professionals make mistakes, it does give people the feeling that they are not as good as amateurs, but on the whole, the fact that professionals can make a living from this has already proven that they do much better than most amateur enthusiasts.

He An's analysis made Qiao Liang understand a truth. The official Weibo post that President Pei sent was not blocking all his paths, but blocking all other paths, leaving only one.

And this is the path to interpreting the true meaning of the game *Struggle*!

It's just that Qiao Liang lacked the professional thinking of game design, so he didn't realize this.

Look at how the big shot He An analyzed it?

He directly used a basic theory of literary creation to crack the maze that Qiao Liang had been racking his brains to get out of.

"No one can create a literary work aimlessly. Any literary work will more or less project some of the author's inner thoughts."

Therefore, he successfully found the end of the thread from a messy ball of yarn, and everything became smooth afterwards!

While worshiping the big shot, Qiao Liang also felt very sorry.

How great it would be if this content could be made into a video!

What He An wrote was all dry goods, but after all, it was just a long Weibo post with limited influence.

Today's society is more impetuous, and all kinds of things on the Internet are frantically vying for people's attention. Compared with videos, which have pictures, sounds, and special effects, pure text is becoming less and less popular.

If it were made into a video, it would definitely gain wider dissemination.

Of course, if Qiao Liang contacted He An on Weibo and asked him to authorize him to make a video with detailed explanations using the game footage of *Struggle*, it should also be feasible.

But Qiao Liang was too embarrassed to do so.

What would it be like if *A Masterpiece* used someone else's manuscript?

Although Qiao Liang usually laughs and jokes and looks like a carefree fat宅 (zhai, meaning "otaku" or "stay-at-home"), he has extremely high requirements for himself in terms of content related to games, and he has a kind of pride.

Making videos with other people's manuscripts, even if it has been approved by the other party, will always feel like gleaning from others' wisdom.

So, Qiao Liang thought about it and decided to forget it.

This time he really failed. He was subjected to a dimensional reduction strike and comprehensive crush by the big shot He An.

He only realized the answer after it came out, but he had no clue before the answer came out, which shows that his strength is far from enough, and if his strength is not good, he has to admit it.

Because only by objectively admitting that one's strength is insufficient can one find loopholes and make continuous improvements.

If you always feel jealous when you see that others are better than you, and you always feel that you have no problems, then you will never be able to improve.

So, Qiao Liang closed the long Weibo post with complicated feelings, and frankly accepted the fact that he had failed once again.

Eh, why did I say "again"?

Well... obviously, the Haunted House video had already failed once. Of course, it wasn't a big failure, it just didn't become a hit and go viral, which was a failure for Teacher Qiao, who has high demands on himself.

This was a blow to Qiao Liang, who had always been very confident.

"Eh, wait a minute."

"Speaking of that video, President Pei personally told me that if I gave up interpreting *Struggle* with *A Masterpiece*, I would be able to find what was missing from that video."

"I have already given up now, completely given up, but I still have no clue what is missing!"

"Could it be that President Pei tricked me?"

"That can't be!"

"Since President Pei said so, there must be something missing!"

Qiao Liang opened He An's long Weibo post again and carefully examined it.

He felt that he could use this long Weibo post as a key to interpreting *Struggle*, or a textbook, and maybe he could get new inspiration!

The battle is not over yet, Teacher Qiao refuses to withdraw from the battlefield!
