One night is actually very short, so short that it ends in just one dream.
But a lot can happen in one night.
For example, a once-respected leader of an entertainment company was ruined overnight, or a diva-level singer who was once famous in the industry had her image instantly collapsed and was reduced to a mistress that everyone reviled. It would be difficult to turn around...
Of course, for Lu Yuan, one night was like charging another thousand yuan into "Magic World" and then enjoying the pleasure of killing all night long. It wasn't until his eyelids became a little sore and the sound of chickens crow outside that Lu Yuan realized
What a ridiculous thing you did.
In fact, he originally wanted to compile a decent copy of the literary film scripts in his mind.
But his mind suddenly became confused and he didn't know which script to write. The more he forced himself to think about it, the less he could think of it.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan chose not to think about it for the time being.
What can you do if you don’t want a script?
sleep?
No!
Lu Yuan had no intention of sleeping during the long night, and he didn't have the habit of watching educational films from the island country and then exercising...
He was also preparing to write something as soon as possible if inspiration suddenly came to him.
Then...
Play games for an hour to pass the time.
So he finally chose the game he had deleted and downloaded it again.
At first, he just wanted to click and play for a few hours, but after playing for a few hours, he began to find something was wrong.
This game seems to be getting more and more fun, the more you play, the more exciting it becomes, and the explosion rate seems to be getting higher and higher, and many top-quality equipment have been hit by him.
Eventually he got so addicted that he even spent a thousand dollars on it.
This is a sad story.
When the roosters crowed in the early morning, Lu Yuan was instantly shocked when he looked through the window into the distance and saw some white fish belly appearing in the east in the distance!
What the hell did I do all night?
The script wasn't finished yet, but you didn't even talk about it, but you still paid a thousand yuan?
Damn it!
Games harm people, games harm people!
No matter how upset he was, he couldn't eliminate the feeling of guilt in Lu Yuan's heart. When Lu Yuan really calmed down and wanted to write something, Lu Yuan found that his mind was even more mushy than last night, and even when he picked up the pen, his mind was filled with confusion.
There was a sound like "Fireball Technique Thunderbolt Big Boss Golden Armor"...
When he thought of this kind of sound, Lu Yuan couldn't help but want to log into the game again and have a good fight.
It’s day!
I can’t calm down and write the script at all!
Lu Yuan threw the pen away and almost cried.
Why should I go in with a low hand? What the hell should I do instead of playing games? Why on earth should I agree to Director Li to write a script? If I don’t write a script, I won’t stay up late, I won’t stay up late
I don’t know how to play games. If I don’t play games, I won’t be able to recharge money...
One thousand yuan, it belongs to my grandma.
Forehead……
etc!
Lu Yuan suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his thinking.
Is there a connection between playing games yourself and writing scripts?
I write scripts to make money!
Afterwards, Lu Yuan criticized himself for a long time and morally condemned himself countless times. The sound of the game in Lu Yuan's mind became much less intense.
When the morning sun rose, there were gradually more people on the street. Lu Yuan shook his head.
Then a gust of wind blew by, blowing up the plastic bags on the ground.
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up!
"Hello……"
"Director Li, you may not believe it. The script was originally written, but this morning when I was checking the script, a gust of evil wind suddenly blew outside the window. I accidentally didn't pay attention, and the script was all written.
It was blown away by the wind, I will give you the script tomorrow."
"..."
Li You on the other end of the phone expressed his understanding and comforted Lu Yuan by saying that there are many accidents in the world, so don't take it too seriously and take your time.
After making the call, Lu Yuan stretched and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. He looked at the time and felt that there was plenty of time. Lu Yuan simply boarded the "Magic World" again and prepared to fight again. What was the moral condemnation and self-esteem just now?
All criticism and the like were thrown aside by Lu Yuan...
But when I boarded again.
Lu Yuan discovered that the server of "Magic World" has been shut down.
"???"
"The game is closed?"
When Lu Yuan saw the farewell news on the official website, Lu Yuan's face was livid, and he deceived me for a thousand yuan and was shut down?
Damn it, the game is gone halfway through, how can this happen?
Lu Yuan was speechless and flipped through the information about this game company. When he searched for this game company on Sodu, Lu Yuan discovered that this company had declared bankruptcy early this morning...
"You're going to go bankrupt and still steal my money? What do you mean!" Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes and finally found the company and called...
…………………………………………
"This cup is a tribute to our youth!"
"This cup is a toast to our lost ideals!"
"drink!"
"Amu, where are you going next?"
"Me?"
"Yeah, I'm going to find a programming job in another game company. What about you? Da Liu."
"Find a way to pay off the company's three million debt, and then find a way to sell this game..."
"It's a pity. This was supposed to be a popular game, and the number of online users has exceeded 30,000."
"What's the point of over 30,000? The money you charge can't cover the rent, water and electricity bills, living expenses and the operating costs of the game itself..."
"Is there any way to borrow money? I think as long as we can survive this, we can make a profit."
"Haha, this level? What else can be done? A few of us scraped together five million to make this game, but five million can't even guarantee the basic operating costs..."
"Do you regret it?"
"No regrets!"
"Yes, I don't regret it either. Come, drink, have one last drink, and two more. This game is not dead. I will find new investors or sell it to those game companies. Tianxin was not
Are you interested in us?"
"Tianxin Company... said that we would sell the full version of the game to him for three million to run it?"
"yes."
"Damn it, this white-eyed wolf, we won't sell it to him even if we starve to death!"
"right!"
"Here, let's do it."
In Yanjing, in a small game company, several middle-aged people in their thirties drank beer and smoked cigarettes silently.
The computers around me played "Oldboy" by Lu Yuan on a loop.
They are old boys.
Failed old boy.
Some of them scolded, some were angry, and some were unwilling...
However, they had no choice in the end.
Because, they are bankrupt.
They simply cannot afford the high running costs of this game.
When they first showed up at the school, they all had the mentality of being proud of themselves and felt that they had the talent and ability to contribute to the future of China's gaming industry. They also felt that they could create a big company like Tianxin Games.
Dreams are indeed beautiful, but reality is really skinny.
After seven or eight years of hard work, these high-spirited young men have become the Mediterranean. Their minds are becoming brighter and brighter, and they can even reflect light, but their careers have become increasingly bleak...
"Magic World" was still profitable in the first few months, but because the maintenance fees were not paid in place, the server had a glitch and was invaded by viruses. Thousands of players complained that their computers were hacked by hackers and suffered heavy losses. , major game forums even cursed this online game. After doing this, the game instantly went cold. No matter what kind of activities they launched, it was useless...
They know that these viruses may have been put by someone with intentional intentions, but...
They really don't have the money to defend themselves.
"The company phone is ringing!"
"Is this another complaint call from players? Don't answer it."
"Let's answer it. No matter what, we will finish the last shift." The middle-aged man named Da Liu shook his body, walked towards the phone and answered the call silently.
"Hello? Hello, this is "Magic World"."
"It is said online that your company has closed down. Is this true?"
"It's true, I'm sorry."
"I just recharged a thousand yuan and you want me to go bankrupt? Aren't you obviously cheating me out of money? Is this fun for you?"
"Sorry, sir."
"There's no point in saying sorry. I played your game all night last night and I haven't slept yet. Do you know how much it cost me? I've never spent so much money on a game. You guys are really going too far!"
"Sorry, sir, I'm really sorry. Otherwise, please send me your card number and I will refund the thousand yuan to you."
"I don't want the thousand yuan. Please tell me when the game will be re-opened."
"Our company has declared bankruptcy... We don't know when the server will be launched again. Maybe our game is ready to be sold."
"So this "Magic World" is over? It's sold? How much do you plan to sell it for?"
"I'm sorry, sir, it's inconvenient to disclose this."
"..."
Da Liu's voice was very uncomfortable.
He could tell the call was from a loyal player.
Since the launch of the game, there have been very few players who have actually charged a thousand yuan, and they have basically charged up a few hundred yuan to play.
Moreover, due to the lack of game production funds, many aspects of the game are not very detailed, and many things have fatal loopholes. Some players even used the loopholes to directly spend a lot of game coins. As soon as they left the Novice Village, they were covered in over-the-top equipment. God can't do it.
The forums are full of strategies for getting stuck with game currency.
There are very few conscientious players like this stupid guy who paid a thousand dollars.
But honestly speaking, he really didn't want to disappoint this player.
If possible, he would even open the server and give a player a magical outfit to dominate the server for three days and three nights.
However, there was nothing he could do.
One minute after the game is launched is one minute's worth of money.
They really can't support it anymore.
"Is your game company in Yanjing now?"
"Yes."
"How do you not go bankrupt? How much money do you need?"
"Sorry, sir, I'm still busy. I'll hang up now. Thank you for your support of our game, thank you."
"Dududu."
Da Liu thinks this player’s question is really stupid. If you give me money, I won’t go bankrupt!
Of course, it was not convenient for him to say these words.
Just two seconds after hanging up, the phone rang again.
"Hello!"
"I'm Lu Yuan. Have you seen "The Wanderer"? I starred in it..."
"Sir, this joke is not funny at all. You are Lu Yuan, and I am still Shen Lianjie!"
"I'm not kidding, I really am Lu Yuan. If you are free, come to Hengdian to see me. I want to talk to you in person. As long as the amount is not too abnormal, maybe I will really invest in your game."
"Dudu."
"..."
Da Liu shook his head and hung up the phone again and unplugged the phone line.
Are you Lu Yuan?
If you were Lu Yuan, the sky would fall down today!
"Who is it?"
"A liar who claims to be Lu Yuan... Hey, these days... it's really... it's not good for you to pretend to be someone, pretend to be that person, that person is busy making headlines all day pretending to be a slap in the face, he will come to play with us A game?"
"Don't worry about it. Scammers these days have no technical skills at all... Only fools will fall for it!"
"yes."
……………………
In a "remote" company.
The morning sun shone on Lu Yuan's face, and Lu Yuan looked confused.
Lu Yuan found that he could no longer make calls.
This moment...
He was speechless.
Why is it that no one believes me when I tell the truth?
Do I look like a liar?
I am so sincere, I want to spend money to support you, but you actually reject me like this?
