He was staring at his mailbox when two friend requests popped up.
One is from Luotao and the other is from Zhang Xiaoxiao.
Zhang Xiaoxiao's application is understandable. After all, he had a pleasant communication with the other party just now and learned a lot of interstellar insider information.
but……
"Luotao?"
Jiang Yan looked at the self-introduction on the application and was a little confused, "How did she find my contact information? No, why is she looking for me?"
He never saw Luo Tao again except in the cafeteria and at the door.
Now, Jiang Yan became curious about what the other party would say.
After the two became friends, the other party immediately sent a voice call request.
Jiang Yan cautiously pressed "?" on the chat interface.
Luotao also replied with "?", the threat was self-evident.
...Anyway, Jiang Yan still picked up the voice call.
"Hello? Jiang Yan?"
It can only be said that interstellar technology is too advanced. Jiang Yan could clearly hear Luo Tao's coquettish tone across from him, his voice as sweet as a newly melted marshmallow, "Did you just want to reject me?" Friend requests?"
How does she know?
Jiang Yang changed the topic with high emotional intelligence: "What do you want from me?"
"I saw your results." Luo Tao said, seeming to smile, "It's not bad. I heard it's a new type?"
"Thanks for the compliment, you're not bad either."
Jiang Yan replied politely, even though he had never paid attention to Luo Tao's works.
The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Yan heard the other person's tone change to a more formal one: "But this level is not enough."
ah? What's not enough?
Before Jiang Yan could react, Luo Tao continued: "Let's make a bet. If you can surpass me in the preliminary round, I will agree to your request. On the contrary, you must also agree to my request."
A bet?
Hey, you guy, don’t think about yourself and write a gauntlet!
Before Jiang Yan could refuse, Luo Tao hung up the phone, not giving him the slightest chance to refuse.
Jiang Yan looked at the chat interface and was stunned.
Forced buying and selling?
However, it was her unilateral bet anyway, who said she would accept it?
If the other party proposes a bet that he has not yet agreed to, of course he will admit it if he wins, and treat it as if nothing happened if he loses.
Jiang Yan tapped his forehead with his knuckles to bring his thoughts back to the screen.
The system suddenly spoke: [Host, if you are willing to use three million emotional points to upgrade me, I can use the core to help you handle these complicated matters]
Can the system help?
Jiang Yan was happy, but then became distressed. He made a total of three million last time, and spent all of it on upgrades, so he would not be able to afford future games.
[Host, I suggest you check your current emotional value]
What's your current emotional level?
Jiang Yan was a little confused. When he clicked on the system statistics panel, he was surprised——
Six million? !
Where did the other three million come from? ?
Pie in the sky? ?
[These are the emotional values indirectly generated for the host work, and the conversion rate is very low]
In other words, if these viewers were watching and playing his games, how many times could these emotional values be multiplied? !
No matter, at least now there are six million more out of thin air.
"Then upgrade." Jiang Yan said to the system.
It would be good to exchange three million for an AI that can handle the work automatically. Jiang Yan is such a person.
If you can outsource, never do it yourself!
Besides, if you don’t change it now, what will happen if the price of the dog system starts to increase again in the future? Upgrade early and enjoy!
The system's mechanical sound seems to have a hint of excitement:
[The emotional value has been deducted and will be upgraded soon...]
Seeing that half of the numbers on the panel were missing, Jiang Yan immediately felt distressed.
Wouldn't this dog system just calculate these emotional values accurately and then ask for three million? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
Not long after, the system prompted that the upgrade was complete, asking Jiang Yan if he wanted to transfer the contents of his mailbox to the system for processing now.
"Turn around."
Just as Jiang Yang nodded, he saw the red dot on the mailbox disappearing in a second and becoming empty!
It’s simply good news for obsessive-compulsive disorder!
Jiang Yan felt that the money was well spent, and continued to lie leisurely on the sofa, thinking about what to eat in the cafeteria later.
The popped egg toast I had last time was quite delicious... Hmm... The cheese and beef baked rice was also good... Let’s add more flame fruits this time. This is a new variety only found in the interstellar world. It has a soft and chewy outer skin but is delicious on the inside. You can get rich juice when you bite it, and you can also bite the crunchy fruit inside...
[Message processing is completed. A total of 23 useless emails have been blocked. 153 publishers have sent cooperation invitations. At the same time, four private emails have been returned to your mailbox. Please ask the host to provide the next screening requirements]
Private email?
Jiang Yan opened the system email and said to the system: "Select the three publishers with the highest bids. Other publishers can also be used if they have something special, such as reputation or background."
He believes in the intelligence of the system.
If he cannot meet such basic requirements, he will consider giving up using the system and hiring a person to handle his mail processing.
【OK】
After the system answered, Jiang Yan had already clicked on four private emails.
Two of the letters came from debt collection companies.
...This is too uncomfortable.
The words of the two emails are very similar. One is to warn Jiang Yan to pay back the money quickly, and the other is to say that he should not think that there is nothing they can do to Jiang Yan after he enters the trial. Apart from waiting outside, they will send people in to monitor Jiang Yan and tell him not to do anything. Want to run.
"Troublesome things come one after another..."
Jiang Yan looked at the blood-red words on the screen and couldn't help but take a deep breath. Then he put his hand on his abdomen and closed his eyes peacefully.
Although there is a way to make money from games, and 2.4 million has been collected from rewards, the remaining 7 million holes have to be filled, and we have to wait for the publisher to sign the contract.
This time, for at least two weeks, he still has to develop the game, and he doesn't know if it will be late.
Because the email from the debt collection company came from three days ago, the other party is probably already looking for someone to enter the competition venue.
It should be... not that easy to sneak in, right?
Jiang Yan could only think of the good. He lay there for a while and felt better before continuing to read the email. This time he found a surprise.
One email came from the original owner to remind him that the items he had ordered previously had been delivered to his home, and the other email came from an employee of Zongheng Entertainment Company!
The other party said that he was very optimistic about the game "Witch House", but the manager was a well-connected person who did not seek advancement. After he strongly recommended it, the manager was only willing to give a price of 500,000, which made him very disappointed.
And he sent this email just because he thought Jiang Yan's game was very good, and he hoped he wouldn't feel that he was only worth half a million. He will leave the company and the main star soon. He may not appear in the game development industry in the future, but he will always pay attention to and support Jiang Yan.
""The Witch's House" is a shocking work, and I have other speculations about the ending...?"
