Chapter 102: The Origin of the Gods

The commission released by O'Diana is not complicated.

There is a start-up company, which develops games, and in recent years, the project has become bigger, and there is a contradiction in the distribution of internal interests, and the two founders want to squeeze each other out.

But both of them are very vigilant on the issue of equity, leaving no flaws, and it is difficult to bring down each other through normal means.

As a result, founder A began to use gray methods, spending money to hire mercenaries to help, and using dirty tricks to force founder B to quit.

The "High-tech Park" is located at the junction of the Rusty Wall District and the Lakeside Business District.

Far from the rusty walls, it has good security, and there are many office parks where large and small businesses are located.

People who can work in high-tech parks often have small achievements, they may be employees of large factories, they may be strivers who have started their own businesses, and they are small white-collar workers who enjoy high salaries.

In Crescent City, these people have relatively superior material living and working conditions, but they often live the most tiring.

They belong to the middle class and have money, but only money

Of course, in this land of struggle, not everyone is tired because they want to cross classes.

There is also a very simple thing in this world, and people are willing to give everything to fight for.

This kind of thing is already rare in Crescent City, but there are still people who naively pursue it.

It is.

Dream.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the high-tech park was still brightly lit, and white-collar workers were "voluntarily" enjoying the blessings.

Outside an all-night coffee shop, a man on the phone, wearing a cheap trench coat, his combed oily hair looking a little messy from the day's uncared for, and his face was full of exhaustion.

His name is "Lu Ren", the founder of a game company, a full-stack programmer with a technical background and a proficient in both front-end and back-end.

Lu Ren has always loved to play games, and since he was a child, he wanted to make a game of his own, a good game with fun at its core, putting aside the smell of commercial copper, and only thinking about how to create happiness for players.

After graduating from college, Lu Ren began to pursue his dream in Crescent City, and co-founded the current game company called "Wow Cool Wow Cool" with his college roommate "Long Tao".

Longtao is usually responsible for maintaining foreign relations and attracting investment.

Lu Ren served as a producer, studied art by himself, became a planner by himself, wrote code by himself, and devoted himself to game production.

Three years later, the Wow Cool Wow Cool team has expanded to more than 30 people, and Lu Ren's efforts have paid off with an open-world game called "God: Origin".

The game DEMO has been tested online, and because of its unique gameplay and ingenious production, it has gained extremely terrifying data - 78% for the second time and 29% for the month.

This result completely exploded those assembly line skin-changing works on the market, and the big factories fell into horror.

How can a game do that?!

The near-explosive perfect data made Wow Cool Wow Ku instantly become the focus of the market, and investors from all walks of life arrived.

This is where the founding team's disputes began.

The reason why "Gods: Origins" has achieved its current success is because Lu Ren is really dedicated to making a "good game", and all the designs are just for a little bit and fun.

This game has a heart-pounding story, fun and brain-burning puzzles, excellent combat feel, and a vast world with all kinds of secrets waiting for players to explore.

Krypton content is also available, after all, the team also has to eat.

But it's all fun krypton that doesn't affect the gameplay, such as character skins, small mounts, home furniture, etc., and there is no essential difference between heavy krypton and zero krypton.

Lu Ren feels that the game should maintain the status quo later, constantly add new content, and serve the player's experience wholeheartedly.

Long Tao and the investors he has wooed don't think so.

The test data of the demo allowed Long Tao and others to see great potential for large-scale commercial changes to the game.

All characters are free and open? Why? Lock!

At first, only one character is given, and the other characters are all locked and put into the pool, allowing players to draw kryptonite!

Equipment can be obtained by collecting materials and forging for free in the big world? You're stupid! Open the weapon pool!

90 draw a small guarantee, 180 draw a large guarantee, and then secretly add a backpack detection system, each time the small guarantee comes out of the repeated equipment that the player already has, forcing them to shoot a few more krypton 648!

Why are the values so smooth? Card values are stuck in them!

If you don't want to be stuck, you can spend money to draw characters, draw weapons, buy materials, how can you become stronger without krypton?

Let's make a PVP invasion system, allowing players to invade each other's worlds to burn and loot, bully female NPCs, and those bitter masters will definitely go back to crazy krypton gold for revenge.

The gap in ideas made Lu Ren and Long Tao gradually turn against each other, turning from former comrades-in-arms to enemies, and the struggle for control of the company began.

At this time, Lu Ren stood outside the café with his mobile phone, his face full of determination: "You tell Long Tao that those changes are impossible!" I'm a game producer, and it's up to me to make the direction! ”

The employee on the other end of the phone whispered: "Brother Lu, Mr. Long has talked to several big investors over there, and if we don't change according to their requirements, the capital will not give money, and our capital chain is already very tight." ”

Lu Ren said firmly: "Brother, you must believe me, the current production direction is right." We're making a great title that will go down in the history of gaming! It will bring huge rewards to Wow Cool Wow Cool in the future! ”

"It doesn't matter if the funds are tight for a short time, I can sell my house, sell my car, and mortgage all my assets to the bank for loans, which will definitely help the team tide over the difficulties!"

"I've been working on this game for three years, and I've poured all my heart and soul into it, and I'm never going to let it be ruined in the hands of capitalists who don't understand games!"

"Okay, let's not talk about it for now, my taxi has arrived, let's rest quickly, those who work overtime tonight can come back tomorrow afternoon, don't be tired."

Lu Ren hung up the phone and walked to the taxi parked in front of him.

He opened the car door and sat in the back seat and said, "Go to 233 Green Valley Street." ”

The driver did not respond and the car did not start.

"Hello?" Lu Ren thought that the driver didn't hear it, so he looked up.

The rearview mirror reflected the driver's face, and those eyes were as sharp as falcons, looking at him coldly.

Suddenly, Lu Ren also found that there were two men in black sitting next to the passenger seat and the back seat.

Lu Ren realized that something was wrong, and just wanted to open the door and escape, but was grabbed by someone and dragged back.

The man in black in the back seat grabbed his hair, took out a contract from his arms, and said with a cruel smile: "Mr. Lu, don't be afraid, it'll be fine after signing." ”
