Chapter 193: One side gains, the other loses! Early collision!
"Next...next Sunday! We...must play a few more games!"
"One...must...come! Brother!"
"Brother...you...don't worry! I always...keep my word!"
“Okay… okay…”
"Then I'll...hiccup...leave first..."
"Go back...be careful! Don't drive after drinking...don't drive after drinking, don't drive after drinking!"
"Alright, alright, alright, you two can do this!"
Shen Miaomiao put Gu Sheng's arm on her shoulders and called the nanny:
"Aunt Song, please take care of my dad. We are leaving first! He has drunk so much that he looks like a nobody. I shouldn't have come if I had known..."
Shen Miaomiao was very tired.
This is the meal!
The banquet started at noon and the two of them drank until 2:30!
Halfway through the drink, Old Shen even took out his own stored Moutai.
The way they addressed each other also changed from "Uncle Shen, Xiao Gu" at the beginning to "older brother, younger brother".
I am really impressed.
I felt like this trip home was just for the two of them, and I was just a matchmaker.
After dragging Gu Sheng to the elevator, Shen Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief, gave the drunken Gu Sheng a cold look, and muttered softly:
"How come this game succubus can even seduce people outside the gaming circle..."
However!
Before he finished speaking!
Then I heard Gu Sheng beside me say: "Because I'm handsome."
"Why?!"
Shen Miaomiao was startled!
Turn around and look!
Facing Gu Sheng's sparkling eyes, although his vision was blurry, it could be seen that he was still awake!
"You...didn't drink too much?"
Shen Miaomiao was stunned!
Gu Sheng smiled, took back his arm from Shen Miaomiao's shoulder, and exhaled a breath of alcohol: "When a man is 70% drunk, he will act until you cry."
Shen Miaomiao was shocked: "Are you pretending to be drunk?"
"Because I need to act drunk,"
Gu Sheng said:
"I know your dad needs me to pretend to be drunk, your dad knows I'm pretending to be drunk, and I also know your dad knows I'm pretending to be drunk, so I have to get drunk."
"I'm getting drunk." Shen Miaomiao felt a headache after hearing this: "So are you drunk or not?"
Gu Sheng smiled slightly: "Like being drunk."
After laughing, he rubbed little Nezha's head and said, "You are much cuter than your father."
Lao Gu must be drunk.
Although he was not unconscious, he was still a little bolder under the influence of alcohol and actually made such a little intimate gesture.
Shen Miaomiao went to drive with a red face, muttering to herself.
Gu Sheng staggered out of the elevator door and went outside the garage to light a cigarette.
Shen Wanlin is such an amazing person.
Although it seemed that the two of them were just chatting about family matters, they seemed to be bragging about each other's business.
But during the conversation, Shen Wanlin's advice, especially his opinions on Golden Wind's future diversified development concept, were full of wisdom.
certainly!
If that were all, Shen Wanlin could only be considered a formidable senior.
What scared Gu Sheng the most, and even frightened him the most, was that Shen Wanlin didn’t understand the game.
Before he stepped into the Shen family's gate, Shen Wanlin's understanding of the gaming industry was not even as good as Shen Miaomiao's in the early days!
Shen Wanlin has never even played Defend the Carrot!
but!
Just through a few brief introductions and the information revealed between the lines.
He can accurately grasp the key points and provide guidance and suggestions, and every suggestion is incisive!
A person who has never been exposed to a certain industry, uses his decades of accumulated experience to make analogies, absorbs and understands the basic knowledge of this industry in a short period of time, and then gives advice to professionals in this industry. Every word he says is to the point and it is really enlightening!
This is like a player who has played Landlord for decades, accidentally came into contact with League of Legends, and after watching a few videos, he became the king of a district!
This isn't fucking outrageous anymore!
fear!
With this top-notch learning and logical analysis ability, coupled with decades of accumulated experience, Lao Shen is simply a human-shaped self-propelled cheater!
Even Gu Sheng suspected that he also had a system cheat!
It seems that I will have to visit Uncle Shen more often in the future.
Even just playing two games of chess would be a huge improvement for him.
Just thinking about it!
Then I heard the sound of a car horn.
Little Nezha had already driven the car over, and Gu Sheng opened the door and got in.
As soon as I fastened my seat belt, I heard little Nezha ask, "Hey? Did you scold me just now?"
"Ah?" Gu Sheng was confused: "When did I scold you?"
"You said I'm cuter than my dad," Shen Miaomiao frowned and stared at Gu Sheng suspiciously: "Are you saying I'm stupid?"
"No!"
Gu Sheng waved his hand:
"How could that be? It's really unfair for you to say that to me! I just spoke so well of you and praised you in front of your father!"
Oh yeah! That’s right!
Shen Miaomiao felt a little guilty, and said awkwardly: "Well... I'm sorry, I was too narrow-minded."
"snort!"
Gu Sheng turned his head to the window:
"You're too late to apologize. Next week I'll complain to your dad about you not doing your job properly, grabbing snacks every day, occupying the meeting room to watch movies and TV series, and your crimes are heinous, and the employees are complaining!"
“Ah ...
Shen Miaomiao hurriedly grabbed Gu Sheng's sleeve and shook him left and right:
"Please forgive me~ I beg you~ Please don't bear grudges~ I will go home and bake you a cake~"
"Did I scold you?"
"No!"
"Are you cute then?"
"cute!"
"Then please drive as you like. I feel dizzy and need to go back to sleep for a while."
"Okay! Beep! The car starts moving - huh? Old Gu, your car doesn't listen to me! It won't move!"
"You didn't put the car in gear... Didn't you drink? Why are you dizzy?"
"I'm dizzy with my own cuteness! Hehehe!"
“…”
…
at the same time.
"Master, please have some tea and fruit."
Following the eldest lady's instructions, the aunt brought over the cut fruit plate, brewed a pot of tea, and served some candied fruit.
"Xiao Song, what do you think of Xiao Gu?"
Aunt Song has been working as a nanny in Shen Wanlin's family for many years.
He is quick and hardworking, speaks little but has a keen eye. He has been working diligently over the years.
Shen Wanlin was in a high position of power, but he actually trusted very few people.
If Li Heng is his left arm who does not hide anything in business and work, then Aunt Song is his most trustworthy right arm in life.
She was one of the few people he trusted, and Shen Wanlin never avoided her whether he was entertaining guests or discussing matters at home.
"I think this guy is pretty good,"
Aunt Song works efficiently, but speaks slowly and is a gentle person:
"Be polite, be capable, and most importantly, win the favor of the boss."
Hearing this.
Shen Wanlin glanced at Aunt Song and laughed:
"How do you know he can win my heart?"
"I have something to say,"
Aunt Song smiled and said:
"Many young people have come to our house before, and there are many talented people among them."
"But you have never been so happy as you are today, playing chess and drinking."
"Of course, I was just talking nonsense... Have some tea."
Aunt Song never talks too much. She only talks about what she sees and usually stops at the point.
Shen Wanlin smiled, ate a candied fruit, took a sip of the tea, then picked up the phone and dialed a number.
After a while, the phone was connected: "Hello? Boss?"
"Well," Shen Wanlin responded, "Ah Hu, pack up and return the house in Binjiang Yaju."
"Oh, OK, I'll arrange it for the brothers below right away,"
Ah Hu replied:
"So what shall we do next...?"
"Let's stop here. It's been almost half a year. This kid is a sensible person."
Shen Wanlin leaned back on the sofa and rubbed his dizzy head:
"Besides, the girls have grown up now. They can handle some things themselves."
After saying that.
Shen Wanlin remembered something and said, "Please clean up after you check out. Don't leave anything behind, especially things that are eye-catching."
"Hey," Ah Hu agreed, "Don't worry, Boss."
…
"And then what? What else did Old Shen say?"
The next day!
Golden Wind, in Gu Sheng’s office.
Lu Bian and Da Jiang sat on the sofa opposite each other like primary school students listening to a lecture, with their backs straight and looking like they were listening attentively.
Two pairs of eyes were staring straight at Gu Sheng opposite them, their eyes filled with the blazing fire of gossip!
"How come you two are more gossipy than the old lady at the entrance of the village?"
Gu Sheng was a little speechless. He peeled the tea eggs while scolding the two people:
"It's just a normal business dinner, there's no need to worry about that."
"Then I played a few games of chess with Comrade Lao Shen, drank some tea, talked about work, and then had a meal and that was it."
"That's it?"
Lu Bian remained noncommittal and expressed doubt.
"What else?" Gu Sheng shrugged: "What else?"
"Two children in three years,"
The river remained silent, but he made a startling statement:
"You are fully committed to the gaming industry, and Mr. Ou is a hands-off manager, so Shen's Capital will naturally be passed on to your grandson."
Gu Sheng shuddered and stuffed the freshly peeled tea egg into Dajiang's mouth: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
"Heh, Eha Yiying Heng is good... (But, I don't talk much anymore...)"
Dajiang blinked his eyes, looking a little innocent.
"Hey, let's talk about practical matters."
Lu Bian asked:
"You two have been flirting with each other like this for almost half a year now. When are you going to make it official... hm?"
Raising his eyebrows towards Gu Sheng, Lu Bian made an expression that said you know what I mean.
"This...is the right opportunity..."
Although Gu Sheng usually looks calm and composed, he is really a bit of an ostrich in this matter:
"It will all come naturally...it will all come naturally..."
"It's all right, it's all right,"
Lu Bian curled his lips in disdain:
"Just go to the moon for the post-credits scene. Isn't that a natural conclusion?"
"That's right," Dajiang finally finished eating the tea egg in his mouth: "If it were my brother, he would be talking to someone in the same bed right now..."
Before he finished speaking!
Lu Bian stuffed the remaining half of the fried dough stick into his mouth: "Hurry up and eat breakfast."
Looking at Dajiang's mouth being stuffed again, Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing.
He pulled out a tissue and wiped his hands: "Okay, let's talk about something really important."
Upon hearing this, Lu Bian and Dajiang couldn't help but look serious.
After all, daily life is just a way for the three of them to chat and joke around.
When will Lao Gu and Xiao Nezha make up their minds and express their feelings?
The Lu Bian brothers didn’t know, and even Gu Sheng himself couldn’t say for sure.
Maybe it will be tomorrow, maybe it will be next year, maybe it will be the next time MiiaShen feels like working with SamGu again.
The arrangement of fate has already been secretly determined.
The restraint at this moment may be for a more splendid bloom.
A relationship that goes with the flow can wait for things to develop naturally, but competition in projects requires striving to gain the upper hand without delay.
"When we were chatting yesterday, I gave Mr. Shen a brief account of Konami's recent developments,"
Gu Sheng said:
"Konami seems to be still testing the waters, testing the market reaction through small-scale promotions,"
"According to our speculation, Konami's large-scale centralized promotion should begin at the beginning of next month,"
"But according to Mr. Shen, their promotion and release should be advanced, and this possibility is very high."
As soon as these words came out!
Lu Bian and Dajiang were both stunned!
"Ahead of time?" Lu Bian smacked his lips. "Wouldn't that be a little hasty?"
Now, it has been about two weeks since Konami started its small-scale promotion, and judging from the current situation, word-of-mouth is gradually improving.
Although players' condemnation of Konami still exists, the voice of Fvk KONAMI has become much smaller due to Konami's public relations intervention.
According to Gu Sheng and his colleagues' calculations, as long as this kind of boiling-frog-in-warm-water promotion and marketing method can be maintained for another half a month, until the end of this month, the voices of players' dissatisfaction will reach a controllable threshold.
By then, Konami can focus on explosive publicity.
In order to snipe Konami, the announcement time of the "Escape" project was set at the beginning of the month.
But now!
Lao Gu's future father-in-law, Comrade Lao Shen, speculated that Konami's concentrated publicity and promotion is very likely to be brought forward?
And they will also collide with Konami in advance?
"Konami isn't worth it? It's going to cost a lot of money, right?"
Dajiang also frowned and said:
"If they start large-scale publicity half a month in advance, the negative voices will rebound more strongly, and they will have to spend more money on public relations,"
"Besides, they don't know about the existence of our "Escape" project, so there is no reason for them to do this."
"Why would a money-grubber like Kamikoshi Keimasa suddenly be so anxious that he would rather spend more money to promote it early?"
For a while.
Lu Bian and Dajiang didn't understand what Old Shen based his judgments on.
"That's why I say Shen Wanlin is amazing,"
Seeing this, Gu Sheng smiled:
"Indeed, we have been keeping the news about Outlast very secret. Konami doesn't know about our actions, let alone our collision plan,"
"but,"
"We went to the moon."
Hearing this!
Lu Bian and Dajiang were stunned at first, then they suddenly realized!
yes!
To the Moon!
Due to the unexpected success of this project and Mr. Ou’s generous donation to charity!
Nowadays, Golden Wind is unrivaled in China, with its public welfare attributes fully utilized, and it has received constant praise from players from all sides.
even!
With its excellent work quality and public welfare attributes, "To the Moon" has also set off a considerable wave of discussion abroad!
As the saying goes, one thing grows while another grows as the other declines!
The establishment of the great and glorious image of Golden Wind has undoubtedly brought a lot of public pressure to Konami.
