Old Liu took out his phone and handed it over. "This is our game. You can try it out if you're interested."

It had been more than two years since he left Shang Yang Games.

Back then, Shang Yang Games was in turmoil, and Old Liu saw that the situation was not good, so he bailed out at lightning speed.

Although Jingzhou didn't have many decent game companies, there were also few professionals in the game industry.

As the main planner, Old Liu's resume was quite impressive, so he quickly found another job.

Later, he heard that Shang Yang Games had been acquired by Tengda, and Old Liu did regret it for a while, but he soon let it go.

After all, he still remembered that Tengda's young boss had a prejudice against him and didn't like him.

So, even if he stayed at Shang Yang Games, he would probably be fired by that boss anyway, so the result would be the same.

Old Liu stopped dwelling on this matter and continued to work on new projects at the new company.

In the past two years, Tengda Group had undergone tremendous changes, transforming from an unknown small company into the largest game giant in Jingzhou and even the whole country. Every game they released was a hit.

Even Huang Sibao, Old Liu's former subordinate, was doing very well in the company.

Old Liu didn't deliberately follow this news, but the official platforms and some game media had interviewed Huang Sibao, so Old Liu inevitably heard some of it.

This made him very jealous, and he even had the idea of taking the Tengda recruitment exam several times.

However, the difficulty of the Tengda recruitment exam was too high. His professional knowledge should be fine, but he couldn't pass the written test.

And when he thought that Tengda's boss didn't actually like him, and he might be immediately rejected in the interview, or be given a hard time, or even be stepped on by the former subordinate he had bullied…

Old Liu gave up the idea and moved from one game company to another in Jingzhou.

Fortunately, the game environment in Jingzhou had been getting better and better in recent years, and there were more and more reliable game companies, so Old Liu's resume and salary were also steadily increasing.

He was quite satisfied with the current situation, so he stopped thinking about Tengda.

Ultimately, they were not meant to be!

About eight months ago, Old Liu jumped to his current company and made a new game, which achieved good results.

Old Liu used to make web games, but the boundary between web games and mobile games was actually quite blurred, so he adapted very quickly after transitioning to mobile games.

This game is a slightly more hardcore mobile game, *Yingjie Zhange* (Heroic Ballad).

Yes, it looked like a ripoff of *Re Xue Zhange* (Hot-Blooded Ballad).

Many people felt this way when they first saw this game.

But Old Liu felt very wronged.

Because the initial version of *Re Xue Zhange* was really designed by him!

Could it be called a ripoff if he ripped off himself?

Of course, *Re Xue Zhange* was originally a very trashy game, and Shang Yang Games later made major changes and remakes, changed all the art resources, and even greatly changed the game mechanics, which made it reborn.

But for Old Liu, the *Re Xue Zhange* after the major changes still had a lot of content that felt familiar to him.

Therefore, making a similar mobile game as a ripoff, although he couldn't make too much money, as long as the quality was passable, it was definitely no problem to make a living.

The fact was indeed the case. *Yingjie Zhange*'s monthly revenue could be about eight or nine million, which was quite good for a mobile game company.

Old Liu was therefore more appreciated by his current boss, and the task of negotiating cooperation with the new channel fell on him.

Old Liu was still full of confidence in this game.

No matter what, it was a game that could make money!

It couldn't be compared with Tengda's games, but how difficult was it for a new game platform to find a game that could make money? Wouldn't they have to treat it well?

Today's cooperation should be very smooth.

However, after Tang Yishu took the phone, she stopped playing in less than five minutes, repeatedly tapped the phone screen a few times, and then raised her head in confusion.

"It seems… it's stuck."

Old Liu was a little surprised.

"Huh? Stuck?"

That shouldn't be possible.

This was clearly a stable version running on other game platforms, and it had gone through several rounds of testing.

Although the official version of the game inevitably had some bugs, it was a matter of probability, and most players wouldn't encounter them.

How could it be so coincidental that a bug occurred during the demonstration?

Old Liu took back the phone and took a look, and found that there was indeed a bug!

The character on the screen inexplicably couldn't move, stuck in place and twitching frantically, and even the tutorial part hadn't finished running.

"Ah, this…"

Old Liu scratched his head, at a loss for words.

If it was other aspects of the content, he could still muddle through it a little bit.

For example, if the game's gameplay was unreasonable, he could say that it was a game feature; if a certain art asset didn't look good, he could say that the aesthetics were more subjective, and some players liked this style, or he could say that it was a temporary resource and would be replaced later.

But a bug was a bug, and encountering it could only mean that the company's hard power was not good, and the testing team was unreliable, which extremely affected the player's game experience.

It was really not easy to gloss over.

"Director Tang, this should be a very rare bug. After all, you can also see that our game has been launched on other game platforms, and the current reputation is acceptable."

"Some sporadic bugs can't be completely avoided, as long as they are controlled within a certain range."

Old Liu restarted the game. Fortunately, the progress of the tutorial was saved, so he didn't have to start from scratch.

Otherwise, if he got stuck in the same place twice, he would crack on the spot.

After confirming the position of the bug that had stuck before, Old Liu handed the phone back.

Tang Yishu reached out and took it.

"How about this, if I encounter no more than three bugs within half an hour, then we'll sign the agreement and arrange for the game to enter the first batch of test lists on our platform."

"Here's the agreement, please take a look at it first."

As Tang Yishu spoke, she took out the prepared agreement and handed it over.

The agreement stated the profit sharing between the two parties, as well as some other regulations, such as all games having a trial period. If they were taken down during the trial period, the manufacturers could still get half of the revenue, and Chaolu Game Platform would return its half to the players.

Tang Yishu played the phone, and Old Liu looked at the agreement.

In fact, Tang Yishu was very self-aware. For her who had a bug-attracting constitution, encountering bugs was commonplace. However, as long as the number was not too large, the impact on players would not be too great after it was launched.

Old Liu nodded, without expressing any objection.

Three bugs in half an hour?

That was unlikely.

This was a stable version. Although the currently known bugs were definitely more than three, not every one was triggered 100%. Moreover, how much game content could be experienced in half an hour? It was just wandering around in the beginning.

So Old Liu didn't think much and began to carefully read the specific provisions of this agreement.

The more he read, the more outrageous he felt.

How could anyone do this!

Players could directly take down the game with a vote? Wasn't this nonsense!

The reputation of many pay-to-win games was very bad, and players scolded them harshly, but that didn't prevent them from making money.

Giving players such great power was like cutting down their own money tree!

Moreover, the biggest impact after taking down the game was not actually on the game developers, because they could still get 50% of the revenue, so it wasn't a complete waste of effort. On the other hand, for the game platform, its 50% was all returned to the players. They invested so many resources to promote it, but the result was a waste.

This kind of game platform was probably doomed!

Before, Old Liu felt that this little girl was just a little young. Since she had become the boss of the company and made a game platform, she should at least have some common sense.

But now it seemed that he was thinking too much.

This little girl didn't have any common sense at all!

Could this kind of game platform attract players?

Could there be any good in cooperating with this kind of platform?

Old Liu fell into deep doubt.

"Ah, crashed."

This time, Tang Yishu didn't hand the phone back, but instead tapped the game app icon again and continued to experience it from the beginning.

Old Liu: "…"

After another three minutes, Tang Yishu stopped again and handed the phone back.

Old Liu took it over and took a look, and found that the game screen was messed up, and there seemed to be a small problem with the art resources.

Old Liu was completely speechless.

What was going on?

Why did the good game suddenly drop the ball?

It hadn't even been ten minutes, and there were already three bugs!

Although these bugs were indeed existing bugs in the game, and Old Liu had even known for a long time that some of these bugs would occur occasionally with a very small probability, but in general, the probability of occurrence was very low and should not affect the game experience, right?

It was really too rare to encounter three bugs in ten minutes like this.

Anyone who didn't know would think that this game was full of bugs!

Tang Yishu comforted him: "Actually, it doesn't matter, bugs are inevitable. Why don't you go back and fix the bugs a little bit, and then come back to sign the agreement?"

"Don't worry, as long as you encounter less than three bugs within half an hour, we'll officially sign the agreement."

Old Liu was also very speechless and nodded: "Okay, then I'll come back another day."

He originally thought that he could show off nicely by coming to negotiate cooperation with this new game platform.

As a result, this script was completely wrong!

Old Liu got up and said goodbye.

After leaving the office of Chaolu Game Platform, Old Liu didn't plan to come back again.

Fix bugs? Fix my ass!

This game had already been tested many times, and although there were still some remaining small bugs, it wasn't like it couldn't be played. Why bother spending so much effort to find and modify them one by one?

Moreover, Old Liu had carefully studied the agreement of this game platform and found that it was not reliable at all!

This kind of game platform could definitely not develop. Even if they signed an agreement and launched on this platform, it was estimated that there wouldn't be many users and they wouldn't make much money. It was even hard to say whether they could last through the one-week trial period.

There were plenty of game channels. Was it necessary to spend so much effort to fix some non-serious bugs for a small channel that had just been established?

It seemed that there was no need.

Just tell the boss that this platform was not reliable and give up directly.

Old Liu made up his mind and left by car.
