Chapter 64
61. Climb to the summit
Half past six in the evening.
At the last moment before the subway doors closed, Park So Young squeezed in in a hurry.
Leaning on the vertical pole in the subway, she was panting and arranging her hair that had been completely messed up while running.
Like every working day, most of the people on the subway at this time were company employees similar to her.
She would finish her work for the day and then catch the subway home. If everything went well, she would have about two hours of personal time at around nine o'clock in the evening.
And if it doesn't go well
The leader will promptly tell her over the phone at around nine o'clock how she can devote more of her time and energy to the company.
The subway moves forward slowly on the track.
Park Soyoung opened the ins app on her phone out of boredom.
On this crowded subway, there isn't much to do to kill time other than scrolling through social media.
The network signal on the subway was not very good, and it took the screen two circles to refresh the content.
"Sunny posted it? This is a SNSD game competition?"
As a Buddhist fan of Girls' Generation, Park So Young casually clicked on this Instagram post that Sunny just updated.
I don’t blame her for being a Buddhist. After work, she became more and more stressed and her motivation to chase stars was naturally much less, but she would still subconsciously click on it when she saw relevant content.
Two very simple photos. The first one is a game interface with a cute and cute style.
"A matching game on mobile phones?" She had heard about this type of game.
The second picture is like a competition ranking of some multiplayer game. Sunny's name is at the bottom of the nine people, and the one at the top is.
Tiffany.
Park Soyoung couldn't help but chuckle.
As a fan of SNSD, she naturally knows that Sunny is considered a game girl, but now she is at the bottom
She couldn't wait to click on the comment area.
Sure enough, she saw the "incompetent rage" she wanted to see.
【515sunnyday】: What a rubbish game!!!
【515sunnyday】: A round is over in one minute, if you give me ten more seconds
And scrolling down further, she also saw other SNSD members who came to laugh at the same time.
【taeyeon_ss】:Ah, who can’t afford it? Oh, it’s us sunny~~~
This is Kim Taeyeon who ranks second.
[seojuhyun_s]: Unnie, you clearly held my hand at the end and refused to let me continue.
This is Xu Xian who ranked eighth.
If it weren't for the fact that this was a public place, Park Suying could hardly hold back her laughter.
Barely restraining her smile, she suddenly felt a little curious about this game.
What kind of game can Sunny break through?
And one game per minute, seems to be very easy to get started?
Apparently, she's not the only one with this idea.
In the comment section of Sunny's Instagram, many enthusiastic netizens have already begun to give directions.
[Updating the latest version of Kakao talk software, there is a game list, the first one is, you can jump directly to download! It’s really fun!]
“The latest version of Kakao talk?”
Park So Young vaguely remembered that Kakaotalk did update a version today, but she did not pay attention to what content was updated.
Now, following the guidance of netizens, she successfully found the new game platform hidden in Kakao talk.
There are not many games on the list, only about six or seven in total.
The one that occupies the top spot of popularity is the one "Anipang" that Sunny "complains" about on her Instagram.
Click to jump.
Download and install.
Do you want to log in with your Kakaotalk account?
Do you want to import the Kakaotalk friend list (this will make it easier for you to play games and exchange gifts with your friends)?
"Is it so convenient?"
Park Suying checked two "yes" in a row and successfully entered the game interface.
Before clicking into the novice guide, she subconsciously glanced at the friend list in the game.
To her surprise, at least a quarter of her friends on the list had played more than ten levels.
Park So Young clicked on the novice tutorial.
The match-3 game is actually so simple that it doesn’t need a tutorial. The guide only told her that the game has a single-player mode and a multi-player competition mode.
Park So Young's finger slid across the screen.
The game is not difficult, each level lasts one minute, and you have passed the level if you reach the goal, but the pleasure of collision and elimination made her a little addictive.
After a while, a friend from college suddenly sent her a multiplayer mode invitation.
Park So Young agreed without any hesitation.
Time passes quietly.
The subway shook slightly, and Pu Suying raised her head in surprise.
Have you arrived at the station so soon?
She got off the subway with the crowd in a daze.
Looking at the paused game interface on her phone, she suddenly felt that her commute to and from get off work would definitely not be boring anymore.
And the same scene is happening in different corners of South Korea at the same time.
kakao Corp.
Game department.
"President, Director! We have reached the top! No. 1 in the game category in Google Store South Korea!"
The young man who was staring at the screen intently without blinking suddenly straightened up and shouted loudly.
Perhaps because he was too excited, he even broke his voice.
However, no one in the room cared about this small flaw at this moment. The originally quiet room suddenly became noisy, and everyone's face was full of excitement.
Since the Kakaotalk software update was released this morning, a wave of enthusiasm has been quietly brewing.
And at noon, after sunny posted that ins, this craze was officially revealed in everyone's eyes.
Several games launched simultaneously on the Kakao game platform have continued to rise on the download list of the game store software, until now.
Climb to the top.
Gu Heng and Jin Fanxiu and Lin Zhixun, who were sitting opposite him, looked at each other and smiled, then turned to the man with white hair next to him and said softly,
"The overall situation has been decided."
Xu Mu, the official executive director assigned to Kakao Corp by Jingsheng Group, arrived in Seoul a week ago.
Unlike Liu Chen before him, Xu Mu is an older member of the group and is now close to retirement age.
The choice to send him to Seoul this time was also based on Jing Sheng’s previous promise to Jin Beomxiu
——Do not seek direct control over Kakao.
Xu Mu patted the back of Gu Heng's hand reassuringly, "Your father will also be very pleased."
Gu Heng smiled, turned to the man who just reported the news and asked,
"Anipang has reached the top, what about the other models?"
Although Anipang's success is enough to prove the gold content of the Kakao gaming platform, he still expects more than this.
"There are currently two other models in the top ten, and the others are also in the top fifty!" The man looked at the data and answered quickly.
Gu Heng let out a long breath.
From arriving in Seoul in March to now in early June, it has been more than three months of busy work.
Even at Li Ji-eun's first concert at Kyung Hee University two days ago, he only rushed to watch it and then returned to the company.
But now, everything has finally come to an end.
He looked out the floor-to-ceiling window of his office.
At this moment, night has fallen in Seoul, but there are thousands of neon signs and brilliant lights.
Chapter completed!
