When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 466: The anchors work together
"If it's as I speculated, then Ni Tian Tang did this for another reason...

“Even these two bugs, no, the game mechanics, were all part of the plan?

“‘Nitiantang did it on purpose’, right… This sentence has almost become a meme. If I tell the players this, I will definitely be laughed at.

"But I really feel that there is an invisible force controlling so many coincidences...

"Let me discuss this with someone first to see if my conclusion is reliable. This kind of thing cannot be done by me alone, we still need the efforts of everyone."

Li Wenhao actually guessed some things.

He combined all the peculiarities of "Blood of Lies", including the game's plot, multiple endings, bugs and special promotional methods, and vaguely grasped some common characteristics in this anomaly.

But he wasn't sure whether this was just some far-fetched story or if it was true.
The conclusions drawn behind closed doors are bound to be very subjective, so Li Wenhao wants to discuss it with a friend. It would be even better if this friend happens to be a victim of the Against the Heaven leak incident.

Originally, Li Wenhao wanted to find Lecturer Ding, but then he thought that although Lecturer Ding was very popular, he was not very smart when it came to game plots, and talking to him might not have much effect.

Let’s find Chen Tingquan!
When it comes to the game plot, Chen Tingquan is the smartest.

Li Wenhao felt that if he could reach an agreement with Chen Tingquan, it would be safer to bring Lecturer Ding along.

Thinking of this, he directly sent a message to Chen Tingquan: "Brother Quan, are you there? Have you seen the leak of the Anti-Heaven incident that was circulated on the Internet?"

Every minute passed, Chen Tingquan called.

"Oh brother, I'm just worried about this! I'm speechless. It was just an ordinary outdoor business activity. Who would have thought there would be such a scam!
"I'm just a harmless treasure appraiser, but I was almost scolded to death in the fan group today!"

It can be heard that Chen Tingquan was also quite speechless, so he immediately called Li Wenhao to complain.

When Li Wenhao heard that there was a chance, he quickly said, "Brother Quan, do you want to join me in redeeming our reputation?"

Chen Tingquan was stunned for a moment: "Restore your reputation? We are not brothers. Is there any room for redemption after it has come to this? This temporary worker from Ni Tian Tang is too outrageous. He directly put the real evidence in his hands. All of us have been directly hammered to death. What is there to redeem? Save it."

Li Wenhao hurriedly explained: "Brother Quan, don't you think this matter has been weird from the beginning?
"Let's talk about the previous games of Against the Heaven. Were they all made with great skill? Were the gameplay, mechanics and promotions well coordinated?
“Including those so-called bugs, weren’t they all proven to be game mechanics in the end? This shows that the team at Against the Heavens has done a very high level of game completion.

"So far, all the games of Against Heaven, note that all the games have not had any updates, and everyone is having a lot of fun playing them. Not only that, but the new games of Against Heaven are basically released on schedule, without any delays. What does this mean?"

Chen Tingquan thought for a moment and said, "Does this mean...the design of these games was very complete from the beginning? Does this mean that Against Heaven has strong project management capabilities? And that the various departments work well together?"

Li Wenhao nodded: "Yes! Brother Quan, do you think such a team would make such a low-level mistake?
"As a temporary worker, where did he get the list of anchors for such a top-secret event? Didn't the person who gave him the list tell him that this was a confidential event? Even if he didn't, didn't he need to ask his superiors for permission when he posted on Weibo using the official account?

"Even if we don't mention these, why did he choose to post on Weibo in the middle of the night? And deleted it in seconds? Brother Quan, think about it, is this reasonable?"

Chen Tingquan thought for a moment and said, "If you say so, it's indeed a bit outrageous."

There is obviously a paradox here: if this temporary worker didn't know the seriousness of the problem, how could he delete the post within two minutes after posting it? You have to know that he posted it in the middle of the night, when everyone else in Nitiantang had already gone to bed, so there should be no possibility that "a superior immediately discovered it and decisively asked him to delete the post."

If it was the temporary worker who decided to delete the post, it means he was well aware of the seriousness of the post. But a new question arises: Isn't he afraid of being punished by Against Heaven for doing this?

Most netizens did not pay too much attention to this. After all, these days, there are too many cases where makeshift teams let temporary workers take the blame, and the incident of Against the Heavens was not the most outrageous.

But considering that Against the Heavens has always demonstrated extremely high levels of project management in the past, it is a bit strange that it suddenly made such a low-level mistake at this time.

"But just this alone probably doesn't mean anything, right?" Chen Tingquan asked.

Li Wenhao nodded: "Yes, these alone do not explain much. But if all the doubts are combined, then this matter does not seem to be that simple.

"Brother Quan, think about it, what exactly is the purpose of the official event?
“Although we did cooperate with the promotion and lured a wave of players in, how much can we deceive? Compared with the sales of the game, the promotional role we played can only be said to be a drop in the bucket, but the official is willing to spend so much money to hire us.

"Of course, judging from the results, we didn't make any money either, because after this incident was exposed, we were criticized badly and our reputation suffered a heavy blow. But the problem is, whether this incident was exposed or not, Against the Heaven would be a pure loss!

"Why did they organize this event in the first place? There has to be a reason, right? It can't really be because Ni Tian Tang is our long-lost father."

Chen Tingquan fell into deep thought again: "Hmm... that makes sense. In fact, when I first saw the contract, I also felt very confused. But there was really nothing special in the contract, so I signed it.

“Think about it now, Nitiantang is a pure loss in the whole event. They spent so much money on the event, but it actually did not achieve the desired publicity effect. Not to mention that such a vicious incident has now been exposed. This event is simply like shooting itself in the foot.” Li Wenhao continued to explain: “Brother Quan, think about it again, isn’t the true ending mechanism of the game "Blood of Lies" very special? Are those two bugs really bugs? Maybe it is also a special game mechanism?
“Although this sounds a bit outrageous, weren’t many of Against the Heaven’s previous mechanisms also mistaken for bugs?
“So, considering the plot, ending, and special mechanics, I have a bold conclusion: I think this publicity event must have been intentional by Against the Heavens, just to match these two special game mechanics and the special god-becoming ending!
"If we incorporate these two special mechanisms into the interpretation of the plot, it seems that there will be more interesting discoveries..."

Li Wenhao's explanation really stunned Chen Tingquan.

He originally wanted to say, isn't this nonsense?

But later on, he discovered that there were so many points in this explanation that corroborated each other that it seemed inappropriate to describe it as a simple coincidence.

It's more like there is an invisible hand that arranged all this...

"What do you think, Brother Quan? Do you think what I said makes sense? If you agree, then let's go find Brother Ding and find a UP host who can edit videos. We can do a joint submission and try to reverse the public opinion!"

Chen Tingquan briefly considered it, then nodded decisively: "I think there is a way!
“Well, let’s split up. You go find the lecturer first and tell him the details. I’ll study the plot and give you some details.

"Then we will find another UP host, preferably one who did not participate in this event and who does not seem to have any vested interest in us. The key is to be able to work hard and produce videos quickly.

"Speed ​​is of the essence. Let's finalize the content of the video as soon as possible, and try to finish editing it tonight and release it in the early morning! Otherwise, if we delay any further, our reputation will be ruined, and then it will be too late for anything!"

Li Wenhao was very happy: "Okay, Brother Quan, let's split up!"

In this way, under the promotion of Li Wenhao, a vigorous self-rescue campaign among the anchors began.

With the joint efforts of many anchors and UP hosts, more clues were found, and this theory began to become more and more perfect.

……

At night, Lilith hummed a little tune and read the posts on the forum.

As the day went by, her mood improved noticeably.

Because that trump card that was detrimental to the harmony of heaven worked!

Today, the hot topic on the forum is no longer about the game, but "the biggest scam in the history of the game." Angry players attacked all the anchors, and many anchors had no choice but to ask for leave and stop broadcasting, burying their heads in the sand like ostriches.

But obviously, this is not a long-term solution.

In order to gain popularity, the anchors will have to come out and face all of this sooner or later.

As for Nitiantang, its official Weibo account has of course been overwhelmed, with calls for Nitiantang to give an explanation or fire temporary workers being heard everywhere.

But these are meaningless because this is exactly the effect Lilith wants.

Fire temporary workers?

Sorry, the person who posted this is an investor of Nitiantang, how could he be fired? Too funny.

And the more similar remarks she made, the happier Lilith became.

Because it means a steady stream of negative emotions are being recorded.

Although the negative emotions caused by external events of the players cannot be completely collected, and even most of them may not be collected, for Lilith, just seeing the players' anger break down is already very happy.

"It's really delightful! I was a genius when I first thought of hiring a host!"

Lilith couldn't help but feel proud of herself, and even browsed the forum for several hours without realizing it. Gu Fan had already gone upstairs to sleep, but she was still happily browsing in the living room.

However, at this moment, Lilith suddenly felt a shock and felt that something was wrong.

Because a video appeared on the homepage of her video website and began to soar in popularity at an extremely fast rate!
