At this time, the employees of Studio 404 had come to work as usual, and they quickly noticed the public opinion turmoil.
"Hey, we used Lu Renjia's actions, but we didn't get Lu Renjia's authorization?"
"I thought Mr. Lu had already made a cooperation plan with that Lu Renjia!"
"Isn't what Brother Lu did a little unethical? We used other people's actions, so we should give him some money. Isn't it a bit too much to do it for free?"
"Didn't Mr. Lu get the data from Jinghai Research Institute? What does that have to do with us? Let Lu Renjia find the research institute."
"So, although this matter is legal and compliant, it is not morally appropriate. Changteng Entertainment probably wants to seize this point to make a fuss..."
The employees within 404 Studio also have some disagreements on this matter.
At this moment, Lu Zhixing came to the work station yawning.
Everyone immediately became energetic and came together: "Mr. Lu, what should we do about Lu Renjia?"
Lu Zhixing hadn't quite woken up yet, so he was confused when he heard this: "What's the matter with Lu Renjia?"
Liu Bo quickly explained: "We just used Lu Renjia's actions without consulting him. Now many people on the Internet are condemning us!"
After everyone added a few words of introduction, Lu Zhixing finally understood the ins and outs of this matter.
But after he figured it out, he was a little bit dumbfounded.
That's it?
As for the one that caused an uproar on the entire Internet?
Previously, Zhang Jian found Lu Zhixing, who was wearing Lu Renjia's vest, and wanted him to come forward to denounce Studio 404, but Lu Zhixing would definitely not agree. Do I denounce myself? Isn't that idle?
Originally, Lu Zhixing thought that even if Lu Renjia refused, Changteng Entertainment wouldn't be able to make any waves, right?
Unexpectedly, Zhang Jian really did it hard!
Even when Lu Renjia didn't express his position at all, he still stirred up the public opinion and deceived some people on the Internet who didn't know the truth and denounced Studio 404.
It can only be said that Changteng Entertainment is really good at being stubborn and inappropriate...
I saw Li Rushan walking over with a heavy face: "Mr. Lu, although our actions are legal and compliant, morally speaking, we used Lu Renjia's data and we really should pay!
“And now that the public opinion has caused such a big stir, if we want to eliminate the impact, we must pay more as compensation.
"Let's do this! I will pay at least half of the compensation, which will come from the future profit dividends of "Doubu Martial Arts"! Mr. Lu, what do you think is an appropriate compensation for us?"
Lu Zhixing was also a little speechless. Good guy, this little fat guy got excited when he heard about the compensation.
"No need, no need."
Lu Zhixing waved his hands repeatedly.
Li Rushan was dissatisfied: "How can it be unnecessary? We do use other people's movement data, and we do want to eliminate negative public opinions about the company."
Lu Zhixing covered it up and said, "It's okay. Anyway, leave this matter to me. Isn't it just a cooperation authorization agreement? It's very easy to handle."
Li Rushan emphasized: “It’s not just a cooperation licensing agreement, the date and time are also very important!”
If the agreement was signed recently, then netizens would know at a glance that it was Studio 404 that made up for it after seeing the public outcry. Although it can be considered a deal, it is not a perfect solution after all.
The best thing would be if Lu Renjia could come forward to clarify the misunderstanding and say that the two parties had already reached an intention to cooperate and that the public opinion this time was deliberately smeared by competitors with ulterior motives.
Lu Zhixing nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Li. Don't I understand this? Keep your money, I really won't need it."
For Lu Zhixing, what is this problem?
You can't just sign the agreement with Lu Renjia however you want, and it's even fine if Lu Renjia personally comes forward to clarify it.
This is no big deal, it's nothing more than switching between two vests.
It's just that when Li Rushan heard the words "I'll keep my money, I really won't need it", he obviously couldn't hold himself tight. He seemed unwilling to let such a good opportunity slip away in vain, and wanted to emphasize a few more words.
At this moment, Lu Zhixing's cell phone rang.
"Okay, Mr. Li, I'll take a call first, so don't worry about this."
Lu Zhixing took this opportunity to step aside with the phone and get rid of Li Rushan's entanglement.
Li Rushan, on the other hand, looked quite regretful.
Although he also hates Changteng Entertainment and will not send money to Changteng Entertainment, he still admires Lu Renjia. Considering that 404 Studio did use Lu Renjia's data, Li Rushan didn't care at all if Lu Renjia was given so much money.
It just so happens that I can take this opportunity to slim down my already over-expanded treasury.
Lu Zhixing found a quiet corner, looked at the caller ID, and found that the call was from Dean Bai of the institute.
"Hello? Dean Bai, what's the matter?"
Dean Bai's meaningful voice came over the phone: "Xiaolu, you may not be able to keep your vest."
Hearing this, Lu Zhixing's heart skipped a beat.
He had always been calm and calm when he saw Changteng Entertainment's huge offensive before, but this time he really couldn't stand it any longer.
What does it mean that the vest cannot be kept! Dean Bai, please make it clear!
Lu Zhixing hurriedly asked: "No, Dean Bai, what's going on? Didn't we agree? This vest of mine is anonymous and must be kept secret from the outside world!"
Dean Bai chuckled: "Well, I did my best. Whether it's the people below or the people inside the institute, I kept it as secret as possible. But... I can't control the people who come this time."
Lu Zhixing: "Ah? Who is here this time?"
Dean Bai explained: "It's the people from the research center."
Lu Zhixing was confused. The research center, isn't that equivalent to being the immediate boss of the institute?
At present, domestic research institutions can basically be regarded as a three-tier structure. The middle layer is the research institute in each city, which has various research groups, and the top level is the national research center, which can also be regarded as The highest level of the entire official establishment.
Lu Zhixing was a little confused: "Why did such a trivial matter alarm the research center?"
Dean Bai smiled: "I can only say that your reputation as Lu Renjia is too great!
"This time the virtual Jinghai is online, the popularity is already unparalleled, and it can even rival the virtual cities of super first-tier cities. Not only that, the various combat data in the virtual Jinghai have also improved the research progress of our institute. Great progress.
"With so many achievements, the research center certainly attaches great importance to our virtual Jinghai project. Naturally, we also saw the biggest contributor, Lu Renjia.
"As a result, last weekend, there were suddenly a large number of reports. The reports were sent to the research center, saying that our Jinghai Research Institute used Lu Renjia's data without permission.
"Although the agreement has been clearly written in the virtual capital, and those who enter are authorized to all action data by default, there are so many whistleblowers this time, and the impact of public opinion is also great, so the research center also attaches great importance to it and decided to send special personnel to investigate. First Time to publish the investigation results and clarify, and give netizens an explanation.
"So...I had no choice but to tell the truth."
Lu Zhixingren fainted: "Report? Many people reported??"
There is no doubt that this is definitely a good thing done by Changteng Entertainment!
Reporting this thing has always been despised by netizens, but I have to admit that its lethality is indeed too powerful! As an official institution, the research center must pay attention to social impact. In the case of a large number of reports and huge public pressure, in order to avoid the possibility of malpractice for personal gains at Jinghai Research Institute, it is indeed a high probability event to send special personnel to investigate and clarify.
But the results of this investigation...
It is estimated that the official investigators will also have dumbfounded expressions. Who would have thought that this was self-directed and self-acted from beginning to end? Lu Renjia and Lu Zhixing are basically the same person...
For Dean Bai, this doesn't matter.
Although he promised to keep Guo Lu Zhixing a secret, now that the people from the research center are here, he has nothing to do. Besides, this matter has no impact on the institute, and may even be beneficial.
After the truth came out, at least no netizens went to Chong Jinghai Research Institute anymore.
But for Lu Zhixing, this was not an easy thing to accept!
Doesn't this mean that... we are about to fall off the horse?
Lu Zhixing was not mentally prepared at all!
He quickly asked: "Dean Bai, will the official announcement be made? When will it be made?"
He was still wondering if there was any way to save this matter.
Dean Bai was silent for a moment: "Of course there will be an announcement, as for the time... I'll see.
"About 5 more..."
Lu Zhixing was stunned for a moment: "5 hours?"
Dean Bai: "4..."
Lu Zhixing almost spat out blood: "Dean Bai! Why didn't you tell me about this earlier!"
Dean Bai coughed twice: "Well, I can't help it. The people from the research center came too fast. I still have to be responsible for receiving and explaining the ins and outs to them. In short, that's it for now. The game is doing well, I look forward to you. ’s next work.”
After saying that, Dean Bai had hung up the phone.
"Hello? Hello?"
Lu Zhixing hung up the phone silently, his expression dull for a moment.
I heard someone at the work station exclaim: "Huh? The official announcement has been made!"
