Chapter 967 What's Missing From the Video?

Chapter 193 Qiao Liang's Divine Assistance

Qiao Liang watched the last part of the video over and over again, feeling that this was indeed a minor flaw.

Qiao Liang was a perfectionist. He wouldn't have cared if he hadn't noticed the problem, but once he found it, it was like his obsessive-compulsive disorder had been triggered. He couldn't rest until he fixed it.

"But how can I change it? I can't just say that all domestic games except for Tenda Games are trash, right? Some things just can't be said, even if they're true."

"I can only find a few more high-quality domestic games not developed by Tenda to add in."

"Hmm… where to find them?"

"That's right, wasn't there a game called 'Shuimo Yunyan' (Ink Wash Clouds) before?"

Qiao Liang immediately remembered the time before the Spring Festival when the "End of the Road Project" was widely discussed. The release of "The Survival Handbook for Office Workers" and the pre-sale of "Shuimo Yunyan" had generated a good response. Although it was an indie game, it was definitely a representative of excellent domestic games.

Qiao Liang immediately opened the official platform, wanting to edit a clip of "Shuimo Yunyan" and "The Survival Handbook for Office Workers" to insert at the end of his video.

He didn't need to edit much, just a few seconds, a quick flash of a shot, would be enough.

However, after Qiao Liang opened the official platform, he discovered an unexpected surprise.

"Hmm?"

"Shuimo Yunyan is scheduled to be released tomorrow, and the official platform has also released an exclusive interview with the 'End of the Road Project' incubation base?"

Qiao Liang's eyes lit up and he immediately clicked to view the interview.

The interview detailed the situation of the incubation bases in the Imperial Capital and the Magic Capital, and also interviewed Wu Zhicheng, the designer of "Shuimo Yunyan," and Qiu Hong, the initiator of the "End of the Road Project." The content of the interview was detailed and rich, and completely unveiled the mysterious veil of the "End of the Road Project."

"Perfect, this is exactly what I needed!"

Qiao Liang was very happy and immediately recorded a segment about "The Survival Handbook for Office Workers," "Shuimo Yunyan," and the "End of the Road Project" interview, adding it to the end of his video.

Then, Qiao Liang changed some of the wording at the beginning of the video, so that the content of the entire video echoed back and forth.

By comparing the domestic game environment of the "Mission and Choice" era with the current domestic game environment, it would have the effect of remembering the bitter past and appreciating the sweet present.

Qiao Liang was busy until 2 PM before he finally finished revising the video and uploaded it to the Aili Island website.



At the same time, the 16th floor of Shenhua Haoyuan.

Two employees from the administrative department were whispering to each other.

"Recently, CEO Pei seems to be coming to the office more frequently."

"Indeed, he used to come only one day a week, but this week he has been sitting in the office for three or four days in a row, and for four or five hours at a time. It's really rare!"

"Is it because the other industries aren't busy, so CEO Pei doesn't need to personally intervene?"

"How is that possible? There's a lot going on in the other departments! In my opinion, it must be because the 'Mission and Choice' game is about to go online and the movie is about to be released, so CEO Pei is worried."

"Really? I have the impression that CEO Pei has always been calm and collected, and has never worried about any project."

"Worried might not be the right word, but I think there must be pressure. After all, the investment this time is too large. Hundreds of millions of funds have been poured in. If something goes wrong, who can handle it?"

"Indeed, this is a huge gamble. If we win, we'll take off on the spot, but if we lose, we'll explode on the spot. I'm afraid there's no third option."

"I only hate that I don't have the ability to share CEO Pei's worries."

"Forget it, don't think so much. We have to believe in CEO Pei."

"Yeah, that's right. We just need to do our job well. CEO Pei has never made a mistake in such important matters that determine the fate of the company. This time will definitely be the same."

The two employees discussed for a while and then continued to busy themselves with their own work.

However, there was a bit more encouragement and admiration in everyone's eyes when they looked at CEO Pei's office.

This is CEO Pei, the helmsman of Tenda Group!

He truly worries about the company's worries before the company, and enjoys the company's joys after the company!

What they didn't know was that Pei Qian was indeed sighing in his office, but the things he was worried about were completely opposite to everyone's guesses.

CEO Pei was worried about the great success and huge profits of "Mission and Choice"...

Logically speaking, a project that has taken so long and cost so much money should finally be completed, and he should feel relieved.

But as April 14th approached, Pei Qian not only didn't feel relieved, but his mental pressure was increasing.

He was worried!

Logically speaking, both the game and the movie should be completely hopeless and should fail miserably on April 14th.

But maybe he had failed too many times before, Pei Qian always felt a strange unease, feeling that something was going to happen.

This last week was the most difficult for Pei Qian.

Just now, Huang Sibo called to say that the advancement of the "Mission and Choice" movie release date had been completed. Although it was a bit troublesome, everything was going smoothly.

Advancing the release date was not a simple matter, but it was not uncommon either. After all, the release date was too important for a movie, and the production team and distributor would do everything possible to get a better date to get more box office revenue.

Most movies advance their release dates to avoid competing products and get higher box office revenue. For example, a certain movie originally scheduled to be released on May 1st was advanced to April 24th because a competing movie's estimated screen share during the May 1st period surpassed theirs, while the competing movie on April 24th was weaker, so choosing to advance the release date resulted in a great success at the box office.

In addition, there are also those who deliberately release at the same time as blockbusters to get a piece of the pie, those who engage in bundled marketing, and those who take the opportunity to hype things up... all of these can cause changes in a movie's release date.

In short, all movie production teams and distributors will do everything possible to choose the best release date for their movies, because the quality of the release date often determines hundreds of millions in box office revenue, which is all real money.

But Pei Qian's behavior of deliberately advancing his movie to a garbage release date because he was afraid that his movie would be too strong and dominate the May 1st period was probably unprecedented.

Huang Sibo and Lin Chang did not approve of advancing the release date either.

After all, in their opinion, the quality of the "Mission and Choice" movie was excellent, and it would be a waste not to release it during the May 1st holiday.

But Pei Qian's reasons were also very sufficient: the game side had to compete with the "Fantasy Battle Remastered" game, so the movie's release date had to be moved up along with the game's release date.

So, although Huang Sibo was unwilling, he still honestly followed the instructions.

This made Pei Qian feel a little more at ease, so he decided to browse the Aili Island website and watch some videos to relax.

However, after casually browsing the website's updates, Pei Qian saw a video that Qiao Laoshi had just released.

"Trash Game Complaint Episode 92: The Trashiest Domestic Game in History, It Actually Looks Like This!"

Seeing that Qiao Laoshi had released a new video, Pei Qian instinctively shivered.

Every time this guy releases a video, eight out of ten times he backstabs Pei Qian, which has made Pei Qian almost have a conditioned reflex!

However, Pei Qian carefully looked at the title and immediately relaxed.

Oh, false alarm!

He thought that Qiao Liang had obtained the test demo of "Mission and Choice" from some channel and released another "Divine Work" episode!

Qiao Liang had a good relationship with several game department heads, so it wasn't entirely impossible for him to get the demo of "Mission and Choice" that was still under development.

If Qiao Liang released a "Divine Work" episode before the game's release, that would be a major problem!

But since the video title was Trash Game Complaint, it should be fine.

After all, Tenda Games had not been featured in this column since "Lonely Desert Road."

However, Pei Qian had only relaxed for less than two seconds when he suddenly realized that the situation was not right.

The words "The Trashiest Domestic Game in History" made Pei Qian realize that things were not that simple!

Looking at the video description again, sure enough, this episode was complaining about "Mission and Choice," the national game shame from more than ten years ago!

"Damn it!"

Pei Qian couldn't help but swear.

What a scam!

Logically speaking, the "Trash Game Complaint" column had nothing to do with Tenda Games anymore, but Qiao Liang chose "Mission and Choice" to complain about!

Obviously, this video would take players back to more than ten years ago and relive the history of the collapse of domestic single-player games.

And next week, the remastered version of "Mission and Choice" would be officially released. Most people had just recalled the old "Mission and Choice," and after seeing the remastered version, they would definitely add a lot of emotional points...

Wasn't this a big problem!

Pei Qian was speechless.

What was going on with this Qiao Laoshi! How could every video he released be so perfectly timed!

After hesitating for a few minutes, Pei Qian still clicked on the video.

There was no way around it. The video had already been released, so he couldn't contact Aili Island to delete it, right?

He could only see what the specific content of the video was and then think of corresponding countermeasures.
