Of course Ronan didn't take it to heart about the inexplicable accusations made by almost strangers, but as the conversation progressed, his face gradually became serious.
After more than ten seconds, he winked at Zhugan, went out first, and turned into a small reception room next door.
There was no one here, and soon the bamboo pole also came in. Ronan transferred Yin Le's remote communication here and turned on the multi-party video mode.
Soon, Ou Que's angry baby face appeared in the projection area. He was even more annoyed when he saw Ronan's staffing:
"This is your team, right? Let me say it again: There is no lower limit! How can you use the reputation of girls to manipulate people, photos like P? If you want to win over women and heterosexual fans, there is no need to do that! I I know you must have some more bullshit in the future, please take it down as soon as possible!
"Don't think I'm joking. My mother is the executive vice-president of the Xiacheng Women's Association. If you use the portraits of underage women to maliciously promote your behavior, I can deprive you of your custody rights in a minute and sue you until you are bankrupt." !”
The three of Ronan exchanged glances, and Ronan said: "Thank you for your concern for Ruiwen, but before expressing your attitude and emotions, can you send out the photos you saw? We are confused now."
"Wushui, your sister..."
Ou Que was so quick-tongued that he accidentally brought Rui Wen in. He was suffocated and sent the photo he was talking about while humming.
The three people here gathered their gazes together, and with just one glance, they all came to a conclusion:
It's indeed Raven's photo.
"Handsome! The androgynous character is indeed attractive to female fans, and it will also be popular in niche circles..." Zhugan whistled, only to receive stern stares from Ronan and Ou Que.
Yin Leze said: "Mingtang Culture has absolutely no such hype plan. In the morning, Miss Moya also made a request to Mingtang Culture to prohibit operations... In fact, starting from last weekend, Mingtang Culture has banned all operations related to Miss Ruiwen. All information flows have been frozen. They are also making cooling plans and will take corresponding actions soon."
Of course Yin Le was not explaining to Ou Que, but she had to explain the facts and attitude to Ronan.
Zhugan touched his chin and added information: "This photo is not from P, right? I mean, it should have been beautified, probably repaired from a low-pixel state, but it is definitely not a head transplant or anything like that."
Ronan nodded and confirmed: "It's not P, it should be in the underground fighting arena... yes, there!"
At this point, Ronan and Zhugan both understood, and Yin Le woke up half a second later.
"What underground fighting ground?" Ou Que asked, but no one paid him any attention.
Zhugan scratched his head: "If it were there, things would be more complicated. The crowds at the 'Black Jack' venue are already mixed, and it seems that there is no strict prohibition on taking photos... Ruiwen has been there for a few years, and she can be regarded as a star. , it’s normal to leave images behind. Also, last year’s ‘Two Thousand Thousands’ incident, a large amount of information about Ruiwen leaked out. Pictures or video materials like this should not be uncommon in our circle.”
"Image data?" Ronan and Ouque said at the same time. The former's tone was fine, but Ouque's was about to explode.
After Ronan said it, he immediately remembered: "Yes, there is an image..."
When he persuaded his aunt and his family, he used some video data leaked from the fighting arena, which was the time when Riven's brother was killed. Of course, later Ronan also learned that the brother and Raven were not related by blood. It was just that after Raven's short memory was opened in the fighting arena, they were artificially grouped together, and the other party took better care of her.
The "Black Jack" incident occurred in early October last year, less than a year later. But in these nine months, Ronan had gone through so many things that his memories of the underground fighting arena were actually a little blurry. On the other hand, searching for details in the memory will hardly reveal anything useful.
Zhugan was a little disapproving: "Is this kind of picture useful? With Ruiwen's temperament, would she care about this?"
"Shouldn't..."
Halfway through Ronan's words, he remembered what he saw in Ruiwen's projection area two nights ago and the Internet gossip related to her. He hesitated for a while and did not dare to draw conclusions easily.
Zhugan changed his angle to assist in the analysis: "Forgive me for being blunt, but there are some differences between the photo and Ruiwen's recent image. At that time, she was completely a boy! If we weren't familiar with each other, the topic of the conversation was This is quite difficult for me to recognize at first sight.
"During this period, I have been monitoring the network information of my boss and your family members. Ruiwen is indeed the most popular among you, but there seems to be no rumors about this. This Ou, Ou..."
"Ouque!"
"Oh, classmate Ou Que, let me ask, when you saw this picture, did the holder associate it with Ruiwen?"
"It seems..." Ou Que hesitated, his face became quite ugly, and he was unable to continue.
Seeing the change in his expression, Zhugan slapped his hand: "Don't say it was you who broke the news! I'm a big fan!"
Ou Que was speechless.
Zhugan rolled his eyes: "What was the situation like at that time? How many people were there? Were you strict with your words? Did you warn them afterwards? What are the chances of them listening to you? Did you ask someone to chase this picture? The source? Did you pay attention to confidentiality when you chased it? "
A minute later, Ou Que withdrew from the group chat with an ashen face.
Zhugan clapped his hands: "Little doll, the problem is solved, but the problem is still there, and the nature is difficult to determine. I still don't understand, is this an accident or premeditated? Or is it just a prank?"
Ronan frowned: "On this point, I agree with Ou Que: whether it is premeditated or a prank, it is difficult to trust the lower limit of this kind of trick."
"Do you think someone is messing with you through Raven?"
"The first reaction is that it is correct."
Ronan recalled his premonition judgment not long ago: "There have been all kinds of big and small troubles recently. I feel like someone is using fatigue tactics against me."
Zhugan didn't ask what was a big trouble or a small trouble, he just said: "If it's just to divert your attention, waste your energy, and toss out such tricks, not to mention whether there will be a follow-up, even if there is a follow-up, it won't It will cause substantial harm to you... This is not like the work of conspirators in a dark room. It’s not that they can’t think of it, but it’s unnecessary.”
"Brother Zhugan, what do you mean?"
"It's not so much a fatigue tactic, but more like a conscious or unconscious backlash from all parties after the original balance was lost."
Zhugan has obviously considered this kind of incident: "Boss, you are now like a massive star that suddenly inserted into the solar system. Because of your arrival, the original orbit of the stars has been completely messed up, and all the stars have begun to move towards you. Getting closer, but also fighting at the same time - there is only one reason, boss, your weight is too heavy."
"……Thank you for the compliment."
"I'm just talking. There is no objective data to support it. Boss, you can refer to it."
Zhugan smiled and tried to make the atmosphere more relaxed: "In the current situation, it is impossible for us to fly to a high place, overlooking everything, and find the most critical clue at once. Quite a bit. For a period of time, you still have to fight every move, especially if you are on the Xiacheng side, you have to be able to defend it, but when you go to steal homes outside Xiacheng, you have to let it go. After all, they are flesh and blood over there, right? The unconscious star body will definitely be scared if it really gets hit in the face by your fist, but once you are scared, it will be easy to deal with... This is to punch away with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches."
Ronan nodded, then shook his head after a second: "That's true for most people, but for that one, I mean Levi, that guy should be completely different."
"What does it feel like to be the big BOSS behind the scenes? Boss, you care about this person very much."
Ronan didn't hide it at all: "Because he is the sun that those stars orbited before... The important thing is to be orderly and self-contained. At present, all the steps are very orderly and feasible. "
Zhugan immediately thought of the job next door: "Boss, are you saying that this new skill tree in the Ten Days in the Wild expansion has great potential in the future?"
Ronan said flatly: "There is no problem if you climb all the way to the top of the skill tree."
"Um?"
Zhugan subconsciously glanced at Yin Le and saw that the latter's expression was extremely serious, as if it reflected his current mood.
Just listen to Ronan say: "I suspect that the new humans described in the game may have appeared in some laboratories. Just like the Deep Blue Walker in the previous game. Well, this system has also been fine-tuned, right?"
Zhugan nodded: "Not only fine-tuning, but also adding a new 'over-limit' task, and possibly a subsequent extension of the skill tree, but no one has cleared it yet."
"But the setting of the game core has been completed - if we consider the purpose of the Frost River Reality high-end simulator, the cores of the Burner and Deep Blue platforms should also have been upgraded accordingly."
Ronan suddenly smiled, but it was very cold: "Let's just pay back the Burners. I don't know if anyone will give it a try when it comes to the deformed new humans."
As one of the former persons in charge who is most familiar with the project, Yin Le is bound to take responsibility for this and immediately stated: "I will monitor this information in real time."
Zhugan wanted to ask why Ronan was so sure and confident in Li Wei, but he hesitated and still didn't ask.
Just listen to Ronan say again: "One iteration of core technology is equivalent to a step forward for civilization. Even the smartest people and the most well-trained research groups in the world can hardly predict what will happen after one technology iteration.
"But thanks to Levi, through his arrangements, many people took three or five more steps... The first to third steps may be correct, at least they are viable options, but the next steps are What will happen?”
Without waiting for Zhugan or Yin Le to respond, Ronan continued:
"Even after taking the first three steps, everyone can still take the fourth and fifth steps after all the hard work. But who knows if this kind of path has an end? Is the end connected to a road to the sky or an abyss?
"I don't have any hope for that."
