Because they ate a lot in the tea restaurant, Fu Yueming and He Yi simply omitted the step of dinner after returning home.

He Yi returned to the room in the name of "sleepy", quickly locked the door, and took out his mobile phone.

There was an extra unread message in the text message box, which was sent by Xiang Nansheng half an hour ago: "I'm sorry, some things have been delayed and I haven't returned, this invitation came too suddenly, plus I have doubts about your identity, I can't agree to it." ”

“……”

He Yi looked at this expected answer, simply dialed the other party's phone neatly, got up and walked into the bathroom with better sound insulation.

Toot-toot-toot-

After a few simple waits, a voice finally came from the other end of the phone, "Hello, I'm Xiang Nansheng." ”

He Yi suppressed his voice and greeted politely, "Hello to the director, I'm Will from "The Last Mist"."

There was a brief pause on the other end of the phone, and Xiang Nansheng exhaled softly, "I think I should have rejected it in the text message."

"I know, but I'd like to invite you again over the phone, and I understand the concerns I had with the director, because it's hard to believe that it was my mistake to make an offer from someone I didn't show up for today."

He Yi paused, and said with a degree of relaxation, "If Director Xiang is willing to accept this invitation, I will ask Mr. Li Yu'an to negotiate with you personally."

Xiang Nansheng didn't hang up the phone directly, and his calm tone concealed his exhaustion, "Mr. Will, I don't know if you know that You Ming Studio was founded by Ke Ming and me. ”

"The most fundamental reason for the failure of the competition in the afternoon is that we are swimming, but this does not mean that we will fall here and not be able to get up."

Replace the image of the beast with plagiarism problems, and let the art team re-original the design, and their modeling technology is still there, as long as the funds are in place, they can still make it.

Their studio is not yet close down, as long as the funds are working, there is still a chance to find other investors in the future and continue to expand and develop.

He Yi simply admitted, "Yes, I have never doubted Director Xiang's ability. ”

In the real world, he started in the studio with his friends, and a group of people struggled for eight years, from unknown to famous.

No one wants to abandon the friendship that has struggled like this.

If people's hearts don't change, then everything naturally doesn't change, but what if someone changes in the middle?

He Yi remembered everything he had secretly observed in G.M today, and asked meaningfully, "But Director Xiang, are you sure that the You Ming you see now is still the one you created in the first place?" ”

"Ke Ming, the partner who is staying by your side now, is his ideas, goals, and even moral bottom line still the same as yours?"

The two are not so much collaborators as bosses and employees.

“……”

Xiang Nansheng on the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.

Is it consistent?

He couldn't answer the question.

After the afternoon competition, the two of them had the biggest argument in history -

The embarrassed and angry Ke Ming thought that Xiang Nansheng should not apologize to Lou Yang before leaving, this move was equivalent to admitting that they You Ming had plagiarism, and it was simply a slap in front of him, the owner of the studio!

As long as the timeline is earlier than Lou Yang, even if the competition is unsuccessful, it will not necessarily bear the infamy of "plagiarism".

But Xiang Nansheng disagreed.

He proposed to redesign the game settings related to "Alien Beasts", but Ke Ming, who had already insisted on investing in costs in the early stage, was unwilling.

The two argued until the end, and the word "scattered" came out.

If it really gets into that kind of situation, who is the one who quits? The results speak for themselves.

Xiang Nansheng only understands technology, and he only wants to work the technical level, so he doesn't understand Ke Ming's arrogance and arrogance that wants to soar into the sky, and he doesn't understand his heart that is gradually tainted by money and interests.

Their original intention was to make a local game that was popular in China on their own, rather than imitating foreign game settings, or borrowing or copying other people's ideas.

At the moment, it's clearly wrong.

"Director Xiang, your silence says it all."

"I want to make a local game that belongs to China, and the basic setting of "The End of the Fog" includes the character image, and the future will also be Chinese."

He Yi was blunt and continued to throw out an olive branch, "I believe that You Ming can have the development before today, it must be inseparable from your technical level, if you are willing to come to "The End of the Mist", you should have a lot more treatment." ”

"Except, of course, for the title of 'partner'."

He Yi told the truth, in addition to the financial support of G.M's shares, he hopes that the right to speak in "The End of the Mist" in the future will still be controlled by him and Li Yu'an.

Xiang Nansheng let out a rare low chuckle, "Mr. Will is direct enough. ”

He Yi replied, "Honesty is the only way to talk about cooperation." ”

"Yes, but I'm sorry, I'll have to say no now." Xiang Nansheng didn't hide it, "You Ming Studio is my work, and no one will suddenly give up their work." ”

"Understood."

He Yi responded happily, and did not forget to attach the deadline while understanding, "But at most one month, if a more suitable program person is found, then the position of the leader cannot be the person who is the director." ”

Xiang Nansheng sighed again, maintaining the true blessings of the gamer, "Mr. Will, the game you built is very interesting, I hope that one day it will be popular in the game circle of China." ”

"Also, please apologize to Director Lou Yang for me."

Ke Ming knew that Xiang Nansheng was more serious, so he deliberately concealed it in this matter, and by the time he knew, the studio had already made a lot of efforts for this.

He is an indirect accomplice, and he doesn't dare to say that he is not wrong, but at least he should express his apologies, and he can't miss a word.

He Yi hooked his lips, "Yes, if you have any change of mind to Director Xiang within this month, you can contact Mr. Xiao Li directly." ”

"Okay."

The phone hangs up.

He Yi walked back to the room, sat on the bed and opened the tour interface, and there were three or four more unread messages in the chat between him, Li Yu'an and Lou Yang.

"Will, the bid has been successful! Sure enough, as you guessed, Ke Ming's bastard thing borrowed and plagiarized Sister Yang's design in modeling and design! ”

"Didn't you see that Sister Yang scared him into a daze today."

Lou Yang added two sentences, "Thanks to Will's analysis and judgment, I laid a language trap according to the words I said beforehand, and the other party's proud character really jumped one by one." ”

"@Will, what about people? Where to go? ”

He Yi, who has already witnessed the bidding scene, how can he not know how exciting the afternoon is? He hurriedly circled the two of them and replied: "Congratulations, it's hard work, especially Sister Yang, who came all the way here, are you tired?" ”

The reply to the message in the group came quickly.

"After the afternoon, I went back to the hotel and slept well, and now I feel fine, there is still some time before G.M's funds are officially invested, and I will try to design the graphic images of the six characters first."

Lou Yang is an absolute strong woman in her career, and she will never drag her feet in the face of work.

Perhaps it was destined that He Yi happened to hit the point in time when she wanted to return to China for development, so all the invitations would go so logically.

The mobile phone vibrated slightly, it was a group message from Li Yu'an, "I am already docking with fund-related matters, and strive to sign the contract with G.M within half a month, as for the specific place of work, it is still set in Dawn Games?" ”

Having a ready-made office environment and staff can save a lot of energy.

He Yi agreed, "Yes, but the hardware that should be upgraded cannot be saved, and the increase and decrease of personnel will have to be put into a little more thought." ”

"Understood."

"If Yu An needs it, you can ask me for help at any time, I have been in the industry for so many years, not to mention anything else, there are still points in the management audit."

He Yi looked at the two people who were discussing Zhengsheng in the group, and took the time to roughly inform him of the matter of "the afternoon and the invitation to Xiang Nansheng"-

When Li Yu'an learned of this, he agreed, "I have dealt with Xiang Nansheng before, he does have strength, if he is willing to come to the "Last Mist" project team, it is a good thing. ”

He paused for two seconds and added, "Sister Yang, what do you think?" ”

"You arrange, I have no problem, strictly speaking, as long as Xiang Nansheng is not as muddy as Ke Ming, I am willing to accept a powerful work partner."

Lou Yang's work experience is far above that of the two of them, and his thinking and overall situation are also very mature.

Suddenly, she added, "I'm a little curious, though. ”

He Yi replied, "Curious about what?" ”

"Will, you didn't come to the bidding site in the afternoon, and Yu An and I didn't explain to you at the first time, how can you calculate the right time to invite Xiang Nansheng? What if he has a share of the 'plagiarism' thing? ”

“……”

He Yi looked at this text, his heart trembled suddenly, and somehow he thought of a picture-

As an "undercover agent", he suddenly leaked out of the horse's feet, but he was caught by Lou Yang's sharp eyes, and took out a black muzzle and aimed it at himself.

A woman's natural instinct is really powerful and terrifying.

He Yi secretly sighed and hurriedly made up for it, "I have people I know on the scene, and Xiang Nansheng's personal information and works are also available on the studio's official website." ”

The message was sent within a few seconds.

Lou Yang: "Oh, I see. ”

Li Yu'an: "Will, I asked Sister Yang for supper, and by the way, I should celebrate today's victory." ”

Lou Yang smiled back, "I know that you kid can't come mysteriously, so I will drink with Yu An for a while, and I will definitely drink two more drinks for you." ”

“……”

He Yi was stuck, and laughed helplessly in front of the computer, "Okay, you guys go, I'll celebrate by myself." ”

--

After some time.

He Yi came out of the bathroom after taking off his tiredness.

Maybe it was because Li Yu'an and Lou Yang hooked up the alcohol addiction, or maybe it was caused by the heat in the shower, he only felt that his heart wanted to drink again.

He Yi thought of the wine wall in the small living room, and always felt that it was time to taste it for the sake of "celebration".

After all, Fu Yueming can't see it now, as long as he gets the wine in his hand and drinks it secretly behind closed doors, it shouldn't go wrong.

He Yi secretly built up in his heart, planning to open the door to investigate the enemy situation first.

Crunch.

The moment the door opened, he met Fu Yueming at the door.

“……”

He Yi was startled and hurriedly restrained his expression.

Fu Yueming, who didn't have time to knock on the door, quickly lowered his eyes, leaving his excessively slender eyelashes and casting a shadowless shadow.

The inexplicable silence lasted for less than three seconds, and the detective jumped to their feet, "Meow~Meow!" ”

Fu Yueming took the lead in completing the adjustment, "Heyi? What are you out for? ”

He Yi put on a well-behaved and easy-to-handle appearance, pursed his lips, "Milk, I want to drink, milk!" Second brother. ”

Fu Yueming cooperated and handed over the warm milk in his hand, "Uncle Kai just sent it, drink it while it's hot." ”

"Oh."

He Yi pretended to be happy to take it, and in front of Fu Yueming-

Obviously, he only took a small half sip, but he didn't forget to make an extremely exaggerated swallowing grunt, and after drinking, he deliberately dyed the corners of his eyes and eyebrows with a smile, "It's delicious~"

“……”

Fu Yueming was almost deceived by this set of "skillful acting", and cooperated, "It's good to like it, I'm a little tired today, so I'll go back to the room to rest first." ”

When He Yi heard the second half of the sentence, his eyes lit up uncontrollably.

Very good!

God help him!

Fu Yueming noticed the pleasure he had sneaked out, but he didn't break it, "Go to bed early, good night." ”

After a long time out today, his eyes began to become sour and tired, and he really wanted to close his eyes early and rest.

As he spoke, he turned around with his guide stick in his hand, but his footsteps deliberately shifted the direction of the master bedroom.

He Yi stared in silence for a while, then stepped forward to take his hand, "Second brother." ”

"Huh?"

"Here."

"Am I offtrack?"

"Hmm."

"Then you help me back."

“…… Well! ”

The two pretended to be stupid, asking and answering.

It wasn't until the master bedroom door clicked shut that they both took off their masks.

He Yi stood silently at the door of the master bedroom for a while, through the crack in the door at his feet, until he confirmed that the light inside had been turned off, he breathed a long sigh of relief and started his long-awaited drinking plan.

He Yi walked lightly to the wine wall, his eyes excitedly swept over the various fine wines.

Too expensive? It's not good, after all, it didn't have Fu Yueming's formal consent.

Single-handed? It's not good, after all, the quantity is single, and if you drink it, you may be noticed by Uncle Kai.

He Yi struggled for a while before taking a common vintage Lafite from the upper right side of the wine cabinet wall, of course, it was not cheap.

- Bang!

"Meow~"

The sound of the bottle clattering was accompanied by the Inspector's scream.

He Yi, who was a thief, suddenly froze in place, and slowed down for a while before saying, "Shhhh I'll give you a little dried fish later. ”

The detective whispered, "Woo~"

He Yi knew his current amount of alcohol, and he definitely couldn't stay in the small living room to drink, so as not to startle the snake, he gestured to the pet under his feet with his eyes, "Withdraw!" ”

A man and a cat slipped into the room quickly, neatly closing the door and doing bad things.

…

He Yi entered the room only to find that he was too nervous, he only took the bottle opener, forgot to take the wine glass, he was afraid that the movement of opening the door again would be too big, so he thought about it and planned to blow the bottle directly.

The cork on the bottle is easily pulled out, and the aroma of red wine is instantly diffused.

If it were in the past, He Yi would definitely have to sober up enough and enjoy it leisurely, but now it is different from the past, where can he take care of so much?

He took two sips from the bottle, and immediately squinted in satisfaction.

Refreshing!

Finally, no one cares!

…

Fu Yueming closed his eyes and lay on the bed to rest, but he kept recalling He Yi's flashing excited eyes in his mind, and he always felt that this kitten was hiding a little problem behind his back.

The more I think about it, the more I can't sleep.

When the sourness in his eyes dissipated, Fu Yueming couldn't help but get up and turn on the light, and glanced at the time-

Before I knew it, it had been half past twelve.

"At this point, you should be asleep, right?"

Fu Yueming muttered vaguely, but instinctive impulse was more than reason, and he still opened the door of the room softly.

The corner light in the small living room was still on.

Fu Yueming glanced at the wall of his wine cabinet, and always felt that something was wrong, and before he could carefully distinguish it, the second bedroom sounded the detective's coquettish call.

At the same time, he also refused, "No, you are not allowed to eat dried fish anymore, I, I have already given you a lot!" ”

“……”

Different from the usual simple remarks, it was quite complete, but the tone and pauses were not normal, like ...... Stumbling after drunkenness.

Is this drunk with stealing wine behind your back?

Fu Yueming reacted suddenly, he didn't know whether to laugh for a while, he narrowed his eyes and approached the second bedroom, and knocked tentatively on the door.

The movement in the room suddenly became louder, and it took a while for a while to reveal a confused voice, "Who, who?" ”

Fu Yueming was concise and to the point, "Heyi, open the door." ”

The voice stammered, "I've slept, I've slept." ”

Fu Yueming didn't believe it, "Open the door." ”

There was a brief silence before the door was pried open from the inside.

He Yi, who was still accidentally drunk, hid in the crack of the door and squinted, and after confirming that it was someone he knew outside, he looked at the well-behaved smile with a hint of emptiness.

"Hey, hey, second brother."

“……”

Fu Yueming looked at his eyebrows that had been soaked with drunkenness, and then caught a glimpse of the wine bottle he was holding in his hand, which was only half left, and asked knowingly, "What to drink?" ”

He remembered the situation after He Yi was drunk last time, and when he woke up the next day, it was completely broken, and now that he drank such a large half bottle, he would definitely forget it completely!

He Yi was so excited by the alcohol that he got carried away and said in a high-pitched voice, "I drink, drink milk!" ”

“……”

Fu Yueming's gaze shifted slightly, and he laughed.

Milk?

Thanks to this little drunken cat, he can still make up nonsense to perfunctory him.

The glass of warm milk that was handed out before going to bed just now was placed on the table almost untouched.

He Yi thought that he had deceived Fu Yueming, and the drunkenness in his body gave birth to heat.

He licked his lips a little dryly, and quietly raised the wine bottle again, before he took a small half sip, and his hand suddenly lightened-

Fu Yueming snatched the wine bottle and was serious, "Don't drink it anymore." ”

He Yi frowned unhappily, and reached out to grab it, but his left foot tripped over his right foot and fell directly into Fu Yueming's arms, and the unspoken denunciation suddenly turned into a whimper, cute and pitiful.

"Be careful."

Fu Yueming was afraid that He Yi would fall again, so he stretched out his hand to stabilize the figure of the person in his arms, and then casually put the wine bottle on the cabinet on the inside of the door.

"Well, it's hot."

He Yi, who was afraid of heat, sensed the refreshing coolness on Fu Yueming's body, and the idea of grabbing wine changed in the blink of an eye.

Lie.
