Chapter 1 Everyone's Spirit Boosts Upon Hearing "Boss Pei"

Chen Kangtuo fell into reminiscence, "That day, Boss Pei assigned me a very unreasonable task. He made me repeatedly experience the projects in Thriller Hostel, to fully understand every detail."

"For several days in a row, I would spend seven or eight hours in 'Ultimate Horror,' figuring out every detail and thinking about the detailed feelings each place brought to the tourists."

"In addition, Boss Pei also arranged special props in the Golden Maze to subdivide the difficulty, so that tourists could get completely different experiences when entering multiple times..."

Everyone listened attentively, with looks of admiration on their faces.

On the one hand, they admired Boss Pei.

They didn't expect that Boss Pei could take the ideas of game design and bring such a special tour experience to the haunted house.

On the other hand, they admired Chen Kangtuo.

He actually experienced "Ultimate Horror" for nearly a week? He is also an ultimate tough guy!

Qiao Liang listened with his ears perked up, not missing any information.

Obviously, this was all very key material!

Why is the Thriller Hostel experience so special? It's because Boss Pei integrated the concept of game design into the Thriller Hostel!

There's a lot to talk about just thinking about it.

But... the prerequisite for using this kind of material is to have really experienced it.

So, he returned to the original question: Should I really go and experience "Ultimate Horror"?

Qiao Liang still instinctively resisted, but he was more shaken than ever before.

Because there were too many role models in front of him!

Before, when he played with fans, each of them was not much stronger than him, so Qiao Liang naturally felt good about himself.

But now, all the employees of Tengda had passed, and Chief Supervisor Lin, a girl, went deep into Wuwang Mental Hospital to get material, and Chen Kangtuo almost lived in "Ultimate Horror" in order to give the tourists the best experience.

And Qiao Liang, who had always prided himself on being a hardcore player, didn't even dare to go in and experience it, and couldn't even get an admission ticket.

It would be too embarrassing to say it out loud!

Qiao Liang could only silently drink the "blood" beverage, silent, his mind fighting a war between heaven and man.

Chen Kangtuo looked at Lin Wan, and Lin Wan looked at Ruan Guangjian.

The three of them saw the same emotion in each other's eyes.

Isn't he hooked yet?

Obviously, everyone's goal was the same, which was to let Teacher Qiao overcome himself, go to "Ultimate Horror" to experience it, and then make a video to promote Thriller Hostel.

But they never expected that Teacher Qiao was so firm, or so cowardly, that he hadn't made a statement even after they had said so much?

Just as they were at a loss, someone outside the iron window said in surprise, "Oh, isn't this Little Chen? Who are these people..."

Chen Kangtuo looked up and was overjoyed.

Wasn't this President Li?

President Li opened this restaurant, and on the first day of opening, he came to take a turn, to see how things were going, and then happened to meet acquaintances.

Chen Kangtuo briefly introduced everyone.

Li Shi was very happy, "You're all friends of Boss Pei? Then needless to say, this meal is on the house, everyone can eat whatever you want!"

"Since you're all friends of Boss Pei, everyone can eat and play as much as you want, welcome to Jingzhou often!"

President Li exchanged pleasantries with everyone for a while, and asked the nurse to send two more dishes, very attentive.

Everyone ate and chatted, and no one mentioned "Ultimate Horror" again.

However, five minutes later, Qiao Liang, who had been eating in silence, suddenly slammed the table.

"Okay, I've decided! I'm going to challenge 'Ultimate Horror'!"

Ruan Guangjian, Lin Wan, Chen Kangtuo and others all showed surprised expressions.

Huh?

Why did Teacher Qiao suddenly change his mind?

Didn't the desire to survive prevail before?

Qiao Liang had a look of resignation, "Everyone's inspiration and encouragement have helped me a lot; getting more material is also very important to me."

"But none of this has really made me determined."

"However, President Li's words made me suddenly realize that I am a friend of Boss Pei!"

"What Boss Pei wants to say to me has already been put in Thriller Hostel, in 'Ultimate Horror.' If I don't go see it, then am I still considered a friend of Boss Pei?"

"So, I have to go!"

Looking at Qiao Liang's expression of resignation, everyone couldn't help but sigh silently.

In the end, what moved Teacher Qiao was this?

At the critical moment, it still depends on Boss Pei!

We spent so much effort and couldn't accomplish what we wanted, but Boss Pei achieved it with his personal charm!

……

Afternoon.

Pei Qian was drinking coffee at Moyu Internet Cafe, enjoying the afternoon sun.

The phone on the table popped up messages with high intensity, most of which were congratulations from various people.

After all, Thriller Hostel had just opened, and it was reasonable for Boss Pei, who had a wide network of contacts, to receive some congratulatory messages.

These messages had been bombarding him since morning, and Pei Qian, unable to bear it, had to set his phone to silent mode and pick it up to check it every once in a while.

After finishing a cup of coffee, Pei Qian picked up his phone and opened the unread messages to check.

After clicking away a large number of meaningless congratulatory messages, Pei Qian suddenly paused and immediately entered a state of high alert.

The messages from the compensation manager of Thriller Hostel had already been sent many times, and were still being sent!

Logically speaking, Thriller Hostel had only opened on the first day, so it was normal for there to be a lot of people.

However, there should be no reason for the compensation manager to have so many things to report?

Pei Qian hurriedly opened the chat details to check.

"Lin Wan and Ye Zhizhou and other senior executives of Shang Yang Games arrived at Thriller Hostel and experienced all three projects."

"Lin Wan and Chen Kangtuo ran into Ruan Guangjian and Qiao Liang at the Lunatic Asylum themed restaurant."

"Ruan Guangjian whispered a few words to Lin Wan and Chen Kangtuo."

"Qiao Liang and his fans took a seat at a shared table and had a meal together."

"Qiao Liang seemed to be frightened in 'Haunted House Nightmare' and did not pass 'Ultimate Horror'."

"Ruan Guangjian and Lin Wan are trying to lure Qiao Liang to experience 'Ultimate Horror,' hoping that he can promote Thriller Hostel in a new video."

"Li Shi waiving the bill for everyone seems to be the last straw that broke the camel's back."

"Qiao Liang was deeply moved by your friendship, Senior, and decided to go to the Golden Maze to purchase props and challenge 'Ultimate Horror'."

"We have arrived at the Golden Zone of the Golden Maze."

Obviously, this compensation manager participated in this dinner and had been watching, and the last message was just sent when Pei Qian checked.

A question mark instantly floated above Pei Qian's head.

?

Teacher Qiao?

Ruan Guangjian?

Pei Qian wouldn't find it strange if any of them appeared in Thriller Hostel, but it was very strange for the two of them to appear together and eat together!

Pei Qian didn't bother to find out whether they met by chance or met in a premeditated way. Now, there was a very urgent matter in front of Pei Qian.

Qiao Liang was going to experience "Ultimate Horror"!

Pei Qian was very clear about the destructiveness of Qiao Liang, the number two person on his little notebook.

Pei Qian wouldn't be very scared if other people went to Thriller Hostel to play, because they had no influence.

But Qiao Liang was a big UP master, with millions of fans on the Allie Island website. If he made another video to praise Thriller Hostel, this would be troublesome!

It was also for this reason that Pei Qian didn't notify him at all before Thriller Hostel opened.

Although watching his enemy being scared out of his wits in Thriller Hostel could also bring the joy of revenge, considering the failure experience of *Turn Back to the Shore*, Pei Qian felt that this kind of revenge was a bit like killing eight hundred enemies and losing a thousand of his own.

Therefore, Pei Qian originally wanted to let each other go. I won't notify you, and you don't harm me. We are one in Jingzhou, and one in the Imperial Capital, each of us living in peace.

But he never expected that Qiao Liang, an UP master in the game area, would take the initiative to run over to experience the horror house!

"No, I have to stop him!"

Pei Qian vaguely felt something was wrong.

The previous estimates of the development of Thriller Hostel were all based on one premise, that is, the initial popularity would naturally subside after a period of time and could not be sustained.

But if there was a secondary spread, or even multiple spread phenomena, during this period of time, the subsequent development would be completely unpredictable!

Pei Qian stood up and prepared to call the driver, Little Sun, to run to Thriller Hostel himself and persuade Teacher Qiao to stop.

But after standing up for five seconds, Pei Qian sat down again.

He realized that he couldn't show up!

Too many people at Thriller Hostel knew him now!

If everyone called him Boss Pei one after another, would Tengda fans be curious to take pictures?

Wouldn't his image be exposed then?

Forget it, it was better to forget it. Now was an information society. Why run in person when things could be solved by sending messages and making phone calls?

Thinking of this, Pei Qian dialed Qiao Liang's phone.

……

At the same time, Golden Maze, Golden Zone.

Lin Wan, Chen Kangtuo and others were all there, and Li Shi also came along, planning to see how the goods were selling in the Golden Maze along the way.

The group wandered around in the Golden Maze for a long time before finally finding the Golden Zone. Everyone who came for the first time marveled at why Boss Pei could always come up with such whimsical ideas and turn them into reality.

The shopping mall maze brought everyone a very novel shopping experience. If you don't buy the goods that you took so much effort to find, wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Ruan Guangjian was holding a little devil headgear, fondling it.

And Qiao Liang hesitated again and again, and shamelessly picked up the golden lantern.

There was no way. Although he had to go to "Ultimate Horror" for the sake of his friendship with Boss Pei, he still had the most basic desire to survive.

The golden lantern could dispel most of the ghosts and monsters in "Ultimate Horror". It could be said to be the simplest mode. Considering his performance in "Haunted House Nightmare," Qiao Liang only dared to choose this difficulty.

At this time, Qiao Liang's view of Chen Kangtuo also changed for the second time.

At the beginning, Qiao Liang was scared half to death in "Haunted House Nightmare," and cursed the designer a thousand times in his heart.

After really seeing and getting to know him, and hearing that Chen Kangtuo had contributed so much to Thriller Hostel, Qiao Liang was in awe.

And now, seeing these four props, seeing the simple-mode golden lantern, Qiao Liang felt gratitude towards Chen Kangtuo again.

Whoever can make me suffer less is my relative!

The golden lantern was originally in the handicraft area, with beautiful shape and exquisite production, and of course the price was also the most expensive.

However, this price was very acceptable to Qiao Liang. After all, he was buying not just a small toy, but a game experience!

It was like the Fire Kirin in *Sea Fortress*. It was expensive because of the added game experience.

Qiao Liang picked up the golden lantern and prepared to pay.

But at this moment, his phone rang.

"Huh? Boss Pei is calling??"
