Chapter 72 The Great Crash
"You cut off your relationship with Ling Zun... Wait a minute! Old Chu, have you... been misunderstood something? What I mean..." When Chu Qiancheng seemed to be saying a farewell message, Fu Xin suddenly woke up.
At this moment, Chu Qiancheng's cell phone suddenly rang, and the ringtone of the cell phone was an Eastern European melody that Fu Xin had never heard of.
Chu Qiancheng turned on his cell phone, looked at the caller ID, suddenly raised the phone and pressed it on his ear, made a sorry gesture to Fuxin, quickly walked out of the office, and walked to the corner of the secluded corridor.
Fuxin quickly took out the monitor phone that Guan Qing gave her and put on the headphones connected to the phone. This phone has cloned Chu Qiancheng's mobile phone and can monitor all his calls and messages simultaneously.
As a security measure for the containment project MOR-CN-0799, the studio must maintain the communication record of Chu Qiancheng 24/7 in the future.
There were intermittent crying sounds from Chu Qiancheng's call. The crying sound of a man! Accompanied by the crying sound, there was a strong wind blowing sound.
"..." Chu Qiancheng listened silently to the crying sound, silent.
Fuxin, who was secretly monitoring in the office, had a scalp that exploded. The sound of the strong wind was very similar to the sound of the rooftop rooftop. The guy was calling the guy standing on the rooftop rooftop while crying while calling Chu Qiancheng. What was he doing? He was still a big man.
After a while, Chu Qiancheng sighed softly.
"Son, Dad Qian is a little bit too much, don't be too impressed."
"I can't think about it because of money." Fuxin, the person on the other end of the phone, finally guessed it. Isn't this Director Cai Jue and Director Cai? She has been his subordinate for a day.
"What happened?"
"The Whale Kun game collapsed." Cai Jueyu cried.
"You have feelings for Whale Kun so soon?"
"The new month of the Soul Guardian mobile version I produced has directly turned into the original 3%..."
"You're not too lazy to think about this, right?" Chu Qiancheng's tone gradually became solemn.
"It's not just the Soul Guardian online version, it's all games of Whale Kun. This month, these games have a straight avalanche, and everyone dives..."
"How are you? Was washed away?"
"I've been prepared to be swept away, but I... I'm too stressed and I really can't bear such consequences."
"What's wrong? Are you ready to be washed away?"
"I don't care about me alone. But they are not me alone. I am just a fuse, and the entire game industry has been washed into a sieve! I'm afraid... I'm really afraid..."
Chu Qiancheng seemed to suddenly be immersed in an ice lake.
In fact, practitioners in the entire game industry have a sword of Damocles hanging on their heads at all times. That is, the Atari collapse that broke out in 1982 will make a comeback in the 21st century.
For many years, this fear has been recognized by industry insiders as a wishful thinking by laymen. However, a corner deep in people's hearts clearly realizes that the gaming industry has not been rising over the years, but has been sinking.
Gone are the golden age of stand-alone games. Free PC games have been sinking into web games, web games have been converted to krypton gold mobile games, and now mobile games have been transferred to social platforms to make casual games.
Skin-changing games are emerging one after another, not only mobile games and web games. In the era of big data, the preferences of most game customers are regarded as standard by almost all game giants, and the trend of skin-changing and stitching of single-player game masterpieces is also becoming more and more intense.
After the pandemic, the operational efficiency of many game studios has been reduced by 70-80%. In order to replenish blood and maintain operations, even international game giants that dominate the game market with excellent 3A masterpieces are crazy about increasing in-game purchase services, trying to introduce successful experience of free online games, and relieving this unstoppable true energy.
The pure land of the game has been eroded by the industrial winter and capital alienation to a very small extent.
Only a group of low-cost independent game producers who truly support the conscience of the game industry are left.
Over the years, what can be called representative figures are Chu Qiancheng and Cai Jue, the founders of Chengjue Studios who produced "Breakthrough of the House" and "Soul Guardian".
Cai Jue is in charge of the operation of the studio. In order to promote the game, he appears much more frequently than Chu Qiancheng. Many domestic and foreign fans even regard him as the backbone of the game industry. Chu Qiancheng has always been hidden behind the scenes, not disturbed by the outside world, and concentrates on making games. Only the core fans and the game master are very familiar with him.
Now Cai Jue, who has "thick eyebrows and big eyes", has also betrayed the game.
"Woo... I just wanted to take a break, earn some pension money, and live a comfortable life. I really don't want to destroy the game industry. I can't be such a person, I can't live the most annoying thing, I can't stand it." Cai Jue burst into tears again.
Chu Qiancheng sighed long on the phone and fell silent.
"Old Chu, I know I'm sorry for you. I betrayed Chengjue Studio and I betrayed the game. I just want to say to you the last time, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Woo~~~~~~"
The wind suddenly became louder. Fuxin, who was monitoring the incident, was so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her mouth. At this moment, she even thought that Cai Jue had jumped and became a bird!
It was quiet on the phone, and Cai Jue's intermittent crying came from the wind, which made Fu Xin feel a little relieved, but her psychological pressure was getting stronger and stronger at this moment. Every second, it seemed that she could see Cai Jue flying into the air.
Chu Qiancheng remained silent. The phone was silent. Fu Xin's heart was beating wildly.
After a while, a strange voice sounded in the phone.
"When exactly will a person die? Is it when the heart is shot?"
It was Chu Qiancheng's voice, and his tone was full of middle-aged aura.
"No--!" A more secondary voice came from the phone, scaring Fuxin almost threw away her phone. That was Cai Jue!
"Do you have an incurable disease?"
"Not right--!"
"After drinking the highly poisonous mushroom soup?"
"Of course not--!"
"It is the time when people are forgotten. Even if I disappear, my dream will still come true. That dream will definitely save the world."
Chu Qiancheng and Cai Jue said in unison the extremely excited lines, which made Fu Xin's face hot and her blood boil.
"I am very optimistic about my new game. There is a company that loves games that is optimistic about me, and a group of colleagues who love games support me. I believe that my new game can save the world. Since the industry storm is finally coming, let the storm come a little more violently. Son, don't be afraid, live well and see what the future game is like."
Chu Qiancheng's tone was full of confidence.
"Dad is mighty! This is my brother Cheng! I want to stop this day..." Cai Jue was very excited.
"It's almost done, hurry up and get off the rooftop."
"good……"
Chu Qiancheng pushed the door open from outside the office, with a rosy face and sat on the sofa opposite Fuxin with a heroic look. Fuxin subconsciously put away her headphones and stared at him blankly. She suddenly realized that Chu Qiancheng and he were just as handsome when they left Chengjue Studio with him!
"My physical examination report?" Chu Qiancheng pointed to the document that Fu Xin had already sweated.
"Yes..." Fuxin quickly handed him the report, feeling confused and didn't know what to say.
Chu Qiancheng opened the file, took a look, and smiled slightly, as if he had known that his health was not a big problem.
"Old Chu, you should exercise more and maintain more health." Fu Xin was so worried that she could only keep her words.
