"Old Qiao, let's play a game of GOG!"
"Or "BEQUIET" can be played in black."
"Old Qiao?"
p>"Strange, why is Old Qiao so silent today?"
Several Qiao Liang's fans are calling him to play black games happily, but Qiao Liang is sitting in front of the computer wearing headphones, talking to everyone. The call fell on deaf ears.
He is refreshing the page repeatedly to check the playback volume of the new video and various other data.
That’s not right!
The script shouldn’t be like this!
This video did not achieve the effect he imagined at all!
The previous issues of "The Legend of the Gods" became an instant hit on the day it was released. It rushed to the rankings of the entire site within a few hours, and the game's reputation was completely reversed. .
But this video did not achieve that effect at all.
Although it did play a role in publicity, the popularity did not explode and the response was not that strong. Many viewers still held a wait-and-see attitude and were not persuaded.
For Qiao Laoshi, this is simply an intolerable failure!
It’s not that Qiao Liang is so arrogant that he thinks that any video he makes will be popular.
If it were another designer’s game and the video was ineffective, Qiao Liang would not feel like a failure.
But this is Mr. Pei’s project!
Qiao Liang feels from the bottom of his heart that Panic Hostel is very good. He feels that Mr. Pei has put as much effort into this project as the game. However, this video has not had the corresponding effect. What does this mean?
It shows that there is something wrong with Qiao Liang’s own interpretation of Mr. Pei!
To give a simple analogy, other game producers provide ordinary ingredients, and the dishes they make are unpalatable, and they can blame the blame on the ingredients; but Mr. Pei provides top-notch ingredients. , Qiao Liang, as a chef, made an unpalatable dish. This is a problem of cooking skills!
More importantly, Qiao Liang had already had a premonition about this.
Before the video was released, he felt that the video seemed to be missing something, but he couldn't figure it out after thinking about it all day. In order not to miss the popularity, he had no choice but to release it.
After it was released, it did not achieve the desired effect.
Qiao Liang felt that her relationship with Mr. Pei was like the relationship between a top student and the question maker.
In the past, the examiner would answer the question quickly after giving the paper. After finishing the answer, he would check it over and feel satisfied with all aspects. After handing it in, it would indeed be a hundred points.
But this time, after answering the paper, I always felt uneasy. I felt that some steps or arguments were missing. I had to hand in the paper when the time came. But after handing in the paper, I only got 90 points. The expectations are vastly different.
This is unacceptable to Qiao Laoshi, an top student who gets 100% every time!
So, he felt very confused, frustrated, and very sorry for Mr. Pei.
Mr. Pei put such good ingredients in his hands, but failed to cook a good dish. This is a waste of money!
Qiao Liang wanted to do something to save her, but she still couldn't figure it out.
"I'm afraid the only one who can really give me guidance now is Mr. Pei..."
"But, how can this be so embarrassing..."
Qiao Liang picked up the phone and clicked on Mr. Pei's profile picture, but he still couldn't make up his mind to send the message.
It’s like a cook who didn’t cook the food well, but called the vegetable seller to ask how he should cook the ingredients.
However, just when he was struggling, a message was sent from Mr. Pei.
"Are you free tonight? Come to Wuming Restaurant at 7 o'clock and treat you to dinner."
Qiao Liang was stunned. He almost thought he was dazzled, but after a closer look, it was indeed It's a message from Mr. Pei!
"What a coincidence?"
"When I encountered difficulties and hesitated to call Mr. Pei, Mr. Pei happened to invite me to dinner?"
"Could it be that..."
"Mr. Pei also watched that video and guessed my current predicament?"
"No, not necessarily."< /p>
"Even if Mr. Pei knows things well, he shouldn't be able to reach this point. Or maybe he just wants to comfort me."
Qiao Liang was moved, but also A little bit of anticipation.
No matter what the reason is, this meal must be eaten!
Qiao Liang quickly replied: "Okay, Mr. Pei! I will be there on time!"
...
In the evening.
Unknown restaurant.
"Mr. Pei!"
Qiao Liang shook hands with Pei Qian, with a little loss and guilt on his face.
My emotions are very complicated, and I don’t know where to start with a lot of things to say.
Pei Qian smiled slightly: "Come in, let's talk while eating."
The two of them arrived at Mingyun's private kitchen, and soon, delicious meals were served one after another. It was served.
Qiao Liang had a complicated expression when he saw these dishes.
Obviously, Mr. Pei still entertained himself according to the highest standards, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
Pei Qian couldn't help but feel happy when he saw Qiao Liang's expression.
Seeing Qiao Laoshi’s expression, this meal was not in vain!
It’s worth it!
Pei Qian’s goal was achieved, he happily used his chopsticks and ate happily.
I don’t care if you have an appetite, but I have quite an appetite.
When you stabbed me in the back, did you ever think that you would be here today?
This means that the space in the private room is limited. If the space is spacious, Mr. Pei would not even mind showing Qiao Laoshi what singing and dancing are.
Pei Qian originally thought that Qiao Liang would be very angry when he saw him gloating about his misfortune, and even walk away.
However, JoeLiang showed a gratified smile: "Mr. Pei, I am very touched by your efforts to stir up the atmosphere and prevent me from wallowing in failure. But I hope you can help me clear up my doubts."
Pei Qian: " ?”
Who tried to stir up the atmosphere and stop you from wallowing in failure?
Do you understand that I am gloating? gloat!
Before Pei Qian could say anything, Qiao Liang had already continued: "Mr. Pei, I know you must have watched my new video. What do you think is missing from this video?"
Pei Qian fell into silence.
I have indeed watched your video, and I know very well that this video did not meet your expectations.
Otherwise, why do you think I would treat you to dinner?
But you want to get something out of me?
There are no doors!
Go to Tengda and ask around. Who doesn’t know that I have the strictest tone?
Pei Qian has suffered enough losses from "guiding others" and decided to keep his head down and eat: "I really have nothing to answer."
Qiao Liang sighed softly: "Really..."
"This video is not perfect. It does not explain the essence of Fright Hostel well, and it does not bring enough popularity and traffic. . ”
“Actually, I had a vague feeling before the video was released that something was missing, but I couldn’t find it. I… really should have thought more about it. ”< /p>
"However, it seems it's not too late to think about it more now..."
Pei Qian: "?"
Have you had a premonition before the video was released? Did you originally plan to think more about it before posting it?
Thankfully you didn’t think twice!
Maybe if you think about it more, I’m already cold now!
"Come on, eat the food and eat the food."
"There is no need to think too much about these things. They are all in the past. Let them pass."
Pei Qian hurriedly comforted him. He was afraid that Qiao Liang would always get into trouble. If he really made up for this shortcoming and posted another video to remedy it, wouldn't something big happen?
Qiao Liang sighed while picking up the vegetables: "Since Mr. Pei doesn't want to tell me, I have to work hard to find it myself..."
Pei Qian: "?"
Why don’t you tell me that I don’t want to tell you? You've already preset it in your mind that I know the answer, right?
I know nothing at all!
Pei Qian was speechless. This was the paradox he encountered:
If he didn’t say anything, others would think he was deliberately concealing it, and they would try to dig out the deeper meaning. ; But if you say it, it may be wrong.
How to choose?
We have come to a fork in the road of fate again.
Pei Qian thought about it for two minutes and felt that he must not leave any room for Qiao Laoshi's imagination, otherwise he might not come up with anything terrible!
Like the one given to Yu Pingan beforeThe answer is very suitable for the current situation.
Pei Qian's expression became serious: "Okay, then I will tell the truth. Didn't you ask, what is missing from this video?"
Qiao Liang nodded. : "Yes!"
Pei Qian continued: "This video of yours lacks nothing, including an introduction to the gameplay of the Terror Hostel itself, an explanation of the charging model, and an analysis of the details, all are in place. ”
Qiao Liang was even more confused.
Is everything in place?
Can’t?
He was silent for a moment and asked: "Then...why didn't it have the desired effect?"
Pei Qian was almost stopped by the question: "This..."< /p>
“Sometimes life is like this. The communication between people is pale and weak. A few simple sentences or lines of text cannot be understood by the other party. Isn’t this a normal thing? ?"
"This is life!"
"I can only say that your previous videos were too smooth, or you were too lucky to express yourself like this. Not being understood is the norm in this world."
"It's not your fault, and it's not something you can change."
"After all, not being understood is expression. It’s the fate of those who live in it!”
Pei Qian became more and more emotional as he spoke, because he felt the same way.
Although the two people were talking about completely different things, Pei Qian's tone was indeed sincere and convincing enough.
Pei Qian thinks Qiao Laoshi should have given up now, right?
However, Qiao Liang was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "Mr. Pei, if someone else said this, I would believe it. If you said this, I don't believe it."
"This doesn't fit your personality!"
Pei Qian: "?"
What kind of personality do I have?
Don’t give me any random persona!
Qiao Liang said: "Mr. Pei, I know that you are a lonely expresser and are often misunderstood. But even so, you continue to express your thoughts in different ways."< /p>
"I believe that you are not a person who will give up easily, because you have always persisted."
"Then, why do you want to persuade me to give up?"
"Is it because the way to persevere is too difficult, and you are worried that I will put in too much energy, so you don't tell me?"
"Mr. Pei, just say it, no matter how outrageous it is, I will try my best. I did it!"
Pei Qian: "..."
I was completely speechless.
Co-author I won’t give you an answer today. Are you going to stay here and not leave?
Okay, in that case, I will give you an answer! Don't blame me if you were cheated.
Pei Qian thought for a moment: "There is a way, but the sacrifice is huge."
Qiao Liang's eyes suddenly lit up: "Mr. Pei, tell me!"
Pei Qian paused and said, "TengDa's next game, don't release "The Legend of the Gods" again. "
Qiao Liang was stunned and remained silent for a long time before saying: "The next game will not be "The Work of the Gods"? ”
“Is there any connection between the two? ”
He was very confused, because the column explaining the Panic Hostel and the column explaining the game had nothing to do with each other!
Furthermore, if he gave up "The Work of the Gods", he would definitely Can the video of this episode of Panic Hostel be resurrected?
That makes no sense!
Looking at Qiao Liang’s confused eyes, Pei Qian gave a meaningful expression. Smile.
“If you can’t figure it out, stop thinking about it. Come on, drink! ”
