Before the player enters the room, the narration offers suggestions.

And after the player makes a choice, while walking in the corridor, it criticizes the choice and mocks the player mercilessly!

For example, before the player makes the choice between "heavy spending" and "light spending," they will hear a passage of narration:

…

Very good, you've already chosen "value-added services" instead of "buy-to-play" as the game's main way to make a profit.

You listened to my advice.

Well, I must say, this is a good decision. Selling value-added services is so profitable, why refuse it, right?

But now you face a new problem.

Do you choose heavy spending or light spending?

Heavy spending means you'll sell a lot of high-priced items, like... an 888 Fire Kirin or something.

Light spending means your item prices can't be too outrageous. For example, the most expensive item in the game is only priced at a few dozen yuan.

My personal advice... you better choose heavy spending.

There's no why, this is more profitable, isn't it?

If you're considering light spending for the sake of reputation, why didn't you choose a buy-to-play model from the start?

So, choose heavy spending, it's definitely a very correct choice.

…

And after the player makes a choice and enters a certain door, they will still hear the narration in the corridor, but the two narrations are different.

…

"Heavy Spending":

Oh, oh, oh, I knew it, you would choose this.

Between money and dreams, you still chose money, right?

When you're a player, you always curse unscrupulous companies for being greedy.

But when you make games yourself, you're afraid that the prices of items in the game are too low.

Okay, okay, don't explain, I understand, it's human nature.

Examples like you happen every day in the gaming industry, nothing to be surprised about.

But, have you ever thought about the possibility of not making money and not earning a good reputation?

Heh, just kidding.

Ready to be a black-hearted merchant, counting money while being scolded?

…

"Light Spending":

What a stupid decision.

Why won't you listen to me?

Yes, you saved some reputation, but do you know how much revenue this choice will cost you?

Your loss is a dynamic number, because the more popular your game is, the bigger this number will be!

Imagine, you lost millions just because of this one stupid decision...

Do you regret it a little?

But I'm sorry, you've already made your decision and can't go back.

What, you don't regret it?

Okay, you can keep being stubborn, but I believe you won't be so calm when a clear loss figure is in front of you.

Anyway, I think you made a pretty stupid decision.

But it doesn't matter, I will still give you the right advice next time you choose.

It's not too late, as long as you listen to me obediently.

…

In Pei Qian's design, this narration has two purposes.

On the one hand, the stiff narration makes the player disengage, constantly reminding the player that this is a game, and trying to destroy the game's sense of immersion.

On the other hand, constantly satirizing the player and provoking their anger!

A double whammy, perfect!

Moreover, this narration will try its best to guide the player in the wrong direction.

If you follow the narration's prompts, the player will get the worst ending in the game, and then be ridiculed by the narration!

The narration will mock the player as a boss, being soft-hearted, having no opinion, and losing his original intention...

In short, this is quite excessive mockery!

A game that insults players, have you ever seen one?

There's no way this won't lose money!

Pei Qian carefully reviewed the entire design with Lu Mingliang, believing that he had eliminated any possible hidden dangers.

"Okay, make the design draft according to this."

"For the art resources, music, sound effects, and narration voice acting, find the best ones for me. You absolutely can't spend less money, understand?" Pei Qian instructed.

Lu Mingliang nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, President Pei, I will definitely follow your requirements and strive for perfection!"

Lu Mingliang left.

Pei Qian felt a little relieved and continued drinking tea.

Not long after, there was another knock on the door.

"Brother Qian, the master I invited has arrived, do you want to meet him?" Ma Yang looked excited.

"Oh, sure, let's meet!"

Pei Qian stood up. He still attached great importance to the work that Ma Yang was responsible for.

Can this helper that Ma Yang found really do it? Pei Qian had to personally check it out.

Too smart, he must find a reason to reject him!

…

Zhang Yuan stood at the entrance of Tengda Network Technology Co., Ltd., feeling apprehensive.

The story is a bit bizarre.

In his daily life, he is a resident singer and兼职 bartender at a bar. Just because he loves assembling computers, he is quite active in the Kabar forum, and even got the title of a small forum moderator.

Two days ago, a netizen suddenly contacted him on the forum, saying that he was inviting him to come out of retirement.

Zhang Yuan's first reaction was that this was a scam!

There are many bored people online. As a forum moderator, Zhang Yuan has also repeatedly banned a few idiots.

It is normal for someone to want to play a prank and retaliate.

So Zhang Yuan didn't take it to heart.

As a result, the other party seemed very anxious the next day, saying that the work here was very urgent, and asked him to come to Jingzhou City, with travel expenses, accommodation, food, and lodging all reimbursed, plus a hard work fee of 3,000 yuan.

Although Zhang Yuan still didn't believe it, this hard work fee of 3,000 yuan still attracted him.

He was just a little puzzled. What kind of computer assembly is worthy of a hard work fee of 3,000 yuan?

So, he added the other party as a friend. Unexpectedly, without saying a word, the other party sent a 200 yuan red envelope to express their gratitude!

Zhang Yuan immediately understood that he had met a real rich person.

Which scammer would send people red envelopes as soon as they came up?

Then, the other party gave Zhang Yuan an address, which was a certain office building in Jingzhou City, and also sent the round-trip ticket money.

So today, Zhang Yuan came to Jingzhou City.

After Zhang Yuan arrived, the person who received him was a student-like person named Ma Yang.

This Ma Yang looked honest and simple, but he always felt that he was a bit slow-witted and not very bright.

Zhang Yuan felt that this hard work fee of 3,000 yuan was definitely not paid by this student.

Sure enough, this student named Ma Yang led him to a company and told him that the company's boss, President Pei, would meet him later and chat with him.

Standing at the door, Zhang Yuan felt that his eyes were opened.

This company, at first glance, is a tycoon's company, definitely not short of money!

Looking at the sign at the entrance, Tengda Network Technology Co., Ltd.!

After checking on Qiandu, he immediately knew that this was the company that developed "Ghost General" and "Sea Fortress."

A game company, rich and powerful, no doubt!

This made Zhang Yuan feel very uneasy.

Then, a tall and beautiful female assistant led him to the entrance of the reception room and introduced him to the boss of this company.

Zhang Yuan became even more nervous.

Ma Yang did not reveal his true intentions to Zhang Yuan, after all, whether to recruit him or not still depends on Pei Qian's decision.

If Pei Qian thought Zhang Yuan was okay, Ma Yang could continue to talk to Zhang Yuan.

So, Zhang Yuan is currently in a completely懵逼 state (meng bi, confused).

He didn't know why such a big boss had taken a fancy to him as a resident singer and兼职 bartender, and he didn't know what the other party wanted from him.

Let him perform singing?

Let him perform bartending?

Let him perform singing and bartending at the same time?

Hmm... it seems unlikely.

Could it be...

The big boss wants him to help assemble a computer?

Well, that's probably the only reason, and he can't think of any other possibilities.
