Chapter 721 -408: The Wonders of Life (Second Update)_1
Inside Fang Cheng Studio.
Wang Xiaoying looked at the latest data report, feeling she had never fought such a well-off battle in her eight lifetimes.
After the players defeated the Demon King, “Card Heroes” reached its peak popularity. This kind of grand narrative was rare in games, and even rarer were those that could be successful and have a wide social impact.
But “Card Heroes” made it!
Games imitating it had already begun to appear on the market, but this type of game needed a large player base, as well as solid game quality, and it was highly dependent on game content. She wondered if they would succeed.
Thanks to this game, sales of other games from Fang Cheng Studio increased, and the studio’s reputation improved further. It would be even easier to promote new games in the future.
This was like riding a dragon – it would be hard to lose now.
As expected of the boss – he made it look easy, achieving what others couldn’t.
Not only that, news of the players’ victory even made it to the Weibo trending topics. Countless players shared their thoughts there, everyone as excited as if it were a holiday.
It made sense, given that they had participated in this event, which would be written into this year’s major events. In the future, it would likely continue to be brought up and discussed with great relish, as people recall their involvement back in the day.
Wang Xiaoying could already imagine the scene.
An old man sitting in front of the TV, pointing at the show and saying, “I remember this; I was part of it back then. That Demon King was so tough, but in the end, we took him down. I was in charge of logistics at the time. Don’t think it was simple, it was quite troublesome.”
Thinking about it, Wang Xiaoying felt this was something one could boast about for a lifetime.
However, when she was about to report this good news to Fang Cheng, she found him with a furrowed brow, looking rather unhappy.
Upon seeing this, she immediately felt a sense of deep respect.
The boss was the boss – while we were ready to pop the champagne, he was already contemplating the next game.
At that moment, Huang Ping also approached Fang Cheng and said, “Boss, the main storyline of ‘Card Heroes’ has ended. So, what’s the next step for optimization?”
“Let them handle it.”
“Do you mean to let the players start PVP (player versus player)? That’s a good idea; now that they can meet each other, allowing them to battle freely is great. Also, Gao Tianyun mentioned that card duels are an interesting idea. He already has small virtual imaging technology. Would you be interested in letting players play cards in reality?”
“Whatever.”
“Okay, I got it. I’ll start preparing for the next version. If we’re going to have players play cards in reality, can the factory handle that?”
“It should be okay.”
“Great, then I’ll place the order with the factory. How about we make a commemorative edition of the cards first and then hold a lottery for the players?”
“Fine.”
“Understood, boss. Wait for my good news.”
Watching Huang Ping leave excitedly, Fang Cheng sighed.
He had done something wrong this time.
He had inadvertently trapped himself.
The players were so skillful that they pushed everything to this point step by step. In the end, he involuntarily cooperated with them, allowing the players to deal him real damage.
It turns out, the enemy was myself – what a novel discovery.
He sighed again and looked at Xu Qingling beside him, then asked, “Xu Qingling, how do you usually relax when you’re in a bad mood?”
Xu Qingling initially wanted to say she enjoyed looking at the boss’s photos at home, but thankfully, her rational mind prevailed, and she stopped herself.
Holding back words that didn’t quite fit her image, she responded to Fang Cheng, “I go to Britain to feed pigeons. Boss, are you interested in feeding pigeons?”
“A little, maybe. Thanks, I’ll consider it.”
Observing Fang Cheng’s brows furrowed again, Xu Qingling felt that her boss seemed to have encountered some bottleneck.
But no matter, there is no problem the boss can’t solve!
After getting off work, Fang Cheng left the studio and immediately headed to Trafalgar Square in Britain.
Sitting down on a bench in the square, as soon as he took out a bag of Spirit Grass Seeds, a flock of pigeons gathered around him, looking at the seeds in his hand with hunger.
The pigeons’ instincts kicked in, directly attracted to the seeds in Fang Cheng’s hand. They looked up at him expectantly, waiting for him to feed them.
“One at a time, no pushing. One peck each, then go back in line after you’re done.”
And thus, a peculiar scene unfolded in Trafalgar Square.
An Eastern man set his feed bag aside. In an orderly fashion, the pigeons came up one by one, take a peck each, and after getting their fill, they briskly waddled to the end of the line, quickly eating the seeds in their mouths while waiting their turn.
Before long, almost all the pigeons in the square had gathered there, forming a unique queue in front of Fang Cheng.
Seeing this, a tourist not far away glanced at Fang Cheng’s feed, then told the vendor selling feed, “I want that kind.”
“I’d like some too,” the vendor said enviously.
After feeding the entire bag of feed, Fang Cheng shook the empty bag and said to the waiting pigeons, “That’s it, no more. Maybe next time.”
“Coo coo…”
The pigeons dispersed in disappointment, and Fang Cheng watched them go, pondering that this activity didn’t seem to hold much significance.
