“President Xu, I just heard you say that President Qin sends you photos every day. Can you… can you send me two of those photos?”
“What did you say?” Xu Zhi turned around and asked curiously.
“It’s… It’s nothing. Let’s go.”
The courage that Huang Meng had just mustered was shattered by Xu Zhi’s words.
Shaking his head, Xu Zhi did not care. He continued to walk towards the company building. Behind him, Huang Meng looked at Xu Zhi’s back with confusion.
…
After returning to the company, Xu Zhi first dealt with the matters after the establishment of the customer service department.
From the recruitment training to the configuration of various office equipment, all the preparatory work would take at least half a month.
The department had to ask Xu Zhi for many things in the early stages. In addition to Jumping the Line of Fire, Xu Zhi was so busy with all kinds of work. He could not stop working even for a moment.
When he finally had time to drink some water, Xu Zhi looked at the time. It was already past six o’clock in the evening.
He stood up and looked out the window. The weather today was gloomy as if a storm was brewing.
He returned to his computer and opened the Jumping the Line of Fire forum to take a look. The comments on it were all quite pertinent. Compared to before, there were many more comments that praised the game.
At this point, Jumping the Line of Fire thread had more than ten million registered players. At this rate, Xu Zhi estimated that this game would become the biggest hit in the Bluestar game market today.
It was getting late. Just as Xu Zhi was about to pack up and go home early, Ding Xiaomei suddenly sent him an email.
He opened it casually as he stood up, but the contents of the email caused him to sit back down again.
“President Xu, a bunch of videos that are slandering our Jumping the Line of Fire suddenly appeared on the Sweet Potato Video website. The number of views is quite high, and they suspect that it was done by another game company. Do you want to respond?”
The first thought that came to Xu Zhi’s mind when he saw this email was, ‘Did it come so quickly?’
With his experience from his previous life, Xu Zhi was very familiar with the way game companies slandered each other. These were all normal operations of game companies.
After all, the market was not so big. If one company’s game became popular, it would definitely affect another company’s games. Just like Real Battlefield 1, since yesterday, its daily activity had decreased a lot.
Although he had predicted it, Xu Zhi did not expect that the Jumping the Line of Fire that had just launched open beta yesterday would be followed by a large-scale troll army so quickly.
Opening the Sweet Potato Video website, this was Bluestar’s largest video streaming website. From movies and television to self-made reviews, it covered all the video categories.
